it seems dumb, and almost counter-intuitive to approach such a complex game like trading with such a simple approach like shapes...but maybe when markets start acting stupid its okay to dumb down our approach.
TRIANGLE MASTERCLASS - a thread.
what's the simplest, most effective method of trading a market that trends as hard as cryptocurrencies?
trendlines.
one trendline on its own is strong, but when you put two together you quickly realize just how powerful this simple tool can be.

anybody can draw some lines on a chart any way they'd like. sometimes, we let our bias affect our charts rather than the other way around.
i personally have done this more times than i can count.
you want a fluid bias that can change easily, rather than one relying on 10 steps of conflicting confirmation before entering a new trade
i mean, how much simpler can it be than "above this line bullish, below this line bearish" ? 😂
one trendline on its own can be enough to make a good trade, but when you put two together it can turn a good trade into a great one.
two types: halves and wholes
two directions: up and down
why are they called halves?
well...simply because they're halves of wholes.
it then becomes very simple as the direction of the side thats not flat dictates if you're bullish or bearish.
trendline up = bullish ... trendline down = bearish
it's that simple.
wholes are interesting because with halves, your trendline dictates that price will *CONTINUE* in that direction...
while with wholes your trendlines actually dictate that price will *REVERSE*
well...that wouldn't be true in every market environment.
but when you're participating in a market that trends as hard as crypto is right now...it certainly can be
the god triangle.
the way way that price cycles, momentum does as well.
coins rally, then they cool off, and then they either rally more or reverse.
it represents a continuation in trend.
so if price was going *up* into the triangle, its bullish
if price was going *down* into the triangle, its bearish
within the triangle, price is compressing.
remember price goes up, then stalls, then either keeps going up or reverses.
expansion -> compression -> expansion
you place your stoploss either below the trendline...or below the previous low that was set within the triangle
this is how you give yourself high hit-rate, high R/R plays.
the god triangle gives you the best of both worlds.

🚨Altcoin Trading Indicator🚨
How to use it. A THREAD.
Please Share.
To use it to buy Altcoins and make a high probability entry, the following conditions needs to be fulfilled.
For a long.
1. A green candle Closes above the cross.
2. Heikin Ashi candle turns green.
3. Price should be above 0.236 Fib from the swing high.
How to add the Indicator.
1. Click on the link and Add it to favorites and apply.
https://t.co/Kn90qgDjMi
2. Or Search it in the tab and then apply it.
The indicator itself the most comprehensive Moving Average Indicator which provides 9 MAs and 13 Different times of MAs.
The base of the indicator was by @insiliconot.
To further enhance it, I have added a cross indicator on the cross which works the best historically on Alts.
Condition 1- The cross.
Entry is made when a Cross occurs on the EMA 13/21.
The indicator automatically indicators the Cross with P for a positive cross or N for a negative cross.
This is the first condition for an Entry.

"Blockchain technology is energy-intensive..." => No, it doesn't have to be.
Let's look at Proof-Of-Stake, an alternative to the energy-intensive Proof-Of-Work algorithm.
🧵🔽
1️⃣ A Quick Recap On Proof-Of-Work
A Proof-Of-Work algorithm requires miners to do a certain amount of work that is compute-intensive to gain access to a service or the right to do something. This algorithm, by design, also requires that the work done shall not ...
... be reusable for anything else than what it was performed for. This lies at the core of the security concept of a blockchain. To gain the right to append a new block to a chain and to get some currency as a reward, there is work to be done, and this work must be verifyable.
That work is a race between different miners. Many miners try to compete and to be the first to find the answer to a problem presented to them. This implies that a lot of energy is wasted as only the first correct solution is accepted.

Let's take a higher-level look at how this one works, shall we?

We are actively working to launch on @binance Smart Chain #BSC .
To make this transition easy & understandable for everyone, we are answering most frequently asked questions here.
Ready? Go! 🔥

#DeFi #YieldFarming
Q1 - What are the benefits of holding the $VALUE token on the Ethereum Mainnet network? Give me reasons not to sell. Some are assuming that the VALUE token will be abandoned now that vBSWAP is being created. Can you clarify the use case for VALUE?
👉 $VALUE will always be a governance & profit receiving token of the whole ecosystem if staked in #vGov. With the new farming token on #BSC , gvVALUE holders will get extra rewards at BSC if they choose to bridge their gvVALUE to BSC & stake in gvVALUE-B/BUSD 98/2 pool.
Q2 - What do I need to do with my VALUE tokens that are staked in vGov? Is it OK to leave them in the vGov?
👉If you have VALUE but aren't staking in the vGov & you would like to participate in the BSC expansion, you will need to stake your VALUE in the vGov to receive gvVALUE.
If you are staking in vGov but don't see the correct gvVALUE amount in your wallet, go to vGov (https://t.co/udXn5IJtVx) to unlock your gvVALUE from the old contract. There will be a bridge from ETH to BSC to move gvVALUE and vUSD over.

Quick Thread on #Altcoins/ #Altseason
Step 1: $BTC has a huge correction. Every range starts with either a pump (or dump) and then follows with a dump (or pump). In this case, #Bitcoin pumped and is now pulling back. This is
Step 2: $BTC ranges big once it finds a bottom. This will allow it to reaccumulate for a big summer run in 2021. This is HEALTHY IMO.
Step 3: Once $BTC finds a bottom and starts to grind up again, I expect $ALTS to do very very well in both alt/usd and alt/btc pairs. ALTSZN is almost always characterized by strong alt/btc pairs moving- I've already accumulated most and have done my final buying today and more.
$BTC.D typically has a very nice time during this time of the year. I was off on December prediction bc I thought $BTC was going to pull back by then but oh well! #Altcoins will start their pumping time VERY soon now.

If you want #Altseason, you should want $BTC to make a decent sized pullback. Ranges start after huge moves in both directions, IMO we need to see some cooling off before the ranging starts. Plz give 26k. #Bitcoin pic.twitter.com/yLG9xSrbKz

$BTC.D: This is the chart for inverse #Bitcoin Dominance, the macro chart you need to check out for #Altcoins and when they have their runs. Still potentially more pain to go for $ALTS but I'm thinking that they will turn around strong when $BTC is done w. its run. pic.twitter.com/Q8ewTSRywp
