Bitcoin creating higher highs and higher lows, good context for the next bull run to take place! 100k is underway!

A moving averages is a very simple concept that traders often take for granted and do not consider the inner mechanics of. In a very generalized sense a moving average for the last n periods is something that combines the past n values with unique weightings for each value. The real power of a moving average is in how those weightings are chosen. In a larger...

I've been getting some messages about possible collaborations and questions about what I'm working on, so heres a few of my current projects that I will start working on in the next few months. If you have a good background in programming or maths and have interest in these projects feel free message me! I- Holy Grail a) Making the Holy Grail pick...

If we look at the ETHXBT chart from Kraken (okay volume, lots of history), we can see that that the ETH BTC ratio has been forming a triangle on the daily/weekly charts. I have drawn two triangles, the smaller one connects the 6 hour closes, the longer one connects the daily highs and lows. The analysis of ETHBTC bittrex charts also has the same timeframe on the...

Crypto is still the wild west, even with the adoption that has happened so far; here we can see a huge wash trade unfolding in Ripple. To copy from stockcharts, here are Richard D. Wyckoff's remarks on market operators (the composite man) and wash trading: -The Composite Man carefully plans, executes, and concludes his campaigns. -The Composite Man attracts the...

We just completed an elliot wave set and peaked out close to 8k. Then the first signs of weakness came up when this next wave couldn't really push to a new ATH, demonstrating textbook market complacency. Here we see bearish divergence marked in pink on the RSI and MACD. The Stochastic RSI is ready for a crossover at the top, possibly predicting a sign of future...

Skip to the second paragraph to get to the point, first paragraph discusses observations... What you see in the bottom of the screen is a script I recently published just for fun; it's a momentum measurement for bitcoin against several fiat pairs and crypto pairs, and all summed together. The top of the screen is essentially the btc price, but somewhat more...

This post is for all those who are asking about the progress of the holy grail project. There are many ideas that are being poured into the project that are making it more and more effective, but this is proving to be one of the more interesting ones. The idea of an adaptive stop loss is nothing new, trailing stops are super common, and many low latency methods...

What you are looking at here is an interesting ratio. First part is the ETHUSD/ETHEUR ratio, as given by Kraken. This simply gives the EURUSD ratio in terms of ETH. Theoretically, this should be the exact EURUSD as given by forex, but it sometimes isn't. So if we look at the (ETHUSD/ETHEUR) ratio and compare it to the real EURUSD ratio, it looks like this:...

This idea is an experiment with the Blair momentum indicator I've been working on. Last week the BTCUSD Blair line (big black one) went under the red, orange, and yellow clouds on the 6 hour, giving an early warning that the momentum could be exhausted for now. Now that the Blair line has comfortably exited under the blue cloud this shows that there could be a...

The idea of a derivative is powerful and especially useful in trading. We often don't care so much what the price is, but how it moves. For that reason the velocity, acceleration, and rarely the jerk of price is valuable information. There are a lot of numerical issues with taking time derivatives of price, the biggest of which, in my eyes, is that all transforms...

Do you think it's possible to catch every high and low in a trend? I know I never did, until I started toying with this idea. The idea is simple in theory, it is rooted in moving averages and moving average ribbons. Each fiber of a ribbon contains some different information about the pressure field acting on the ribbon. What if you could selectively choose which...
