PATTERNS - a thread.

what do dairy products, shampoo and the very first couple all have in common?

the answer is lines, shapes...or rather patterns that traders use to predict where price is going in the future.

 for years now, i've used these patterns systematically and have no clue how i would navigate my trading without them.

if i'm being honest i mostly learned from studying and trying to replicate charts from legends like @inversebrah, @LSDinmycoffee and @LomahCrypto
now patterns are supposed to make your charts simpler rather than adding unnecessary noise.

i've made TONS of mistakes in terms of bad, low effort and flat-out invalid patterns with my charts.

with analysis its very easy to make your charts look they way you *want* them to.
there have been some very expensive lessons as a result of these mistakes, but if those mistakes lead to knowledge i can apply to the future then it makes it all worth it.

i guess you can have fun staying poor...anyways
what did I learn? a lot.

there are countless patterns, and if i'm being honest you can almost "create your own" to suit your bias.

but for now, lets focus on three: Adam & Eve, Head & Shoulders and Wedges.
1 - Adam & Eve.

Adam & Eve is a reversal pattern and one of my favorites.

it's basically when you have a sharp reversal at a level, and then have price retest that level in a slower fashion.

price hits demand, bounces sharply, then curves in-and-out of the are it bounced from
an example of this is bitcoin's recent visit to 30k.

A: price sharp down
B: price sharp up
C: price slow curve into area of demand

and it's that simple

https://t.co/VCvOLmhUH3
2 - Head & Shoulders

Head & Shoulders is another reversal pattern and a recent CT favorite as bitcoin looks to be printing one of a few timeframes...or is it?

a Head & Shoulders is a pattern that consists of 3 highs with the 1st & 3rd being the same height & lower than the 2nd
it's simple:

1: high
2: higher high
3: lower how (equal to 1st high)

this pattern signifies that the level of 1&3 is a level of supply, and anybody that bought in 2 got faked out and is now trapped.
an example of this is bitcoin's current price action

A: high
B: higher high (buys trapped)
C: high (same level as first high)

and it's that simple.

wait...something doesn't look right here...more on this later
3 - wedges (or pennants, triangles, etc.)

now the wedge is powerful and must be respected.

this pattern (of two lines converging) is easily my favorite and most actionable setup.

in fact, i'm hi-jacking my own thread with a triangle masterclass. READ ⬇️ https://t.co/MkpXp9GXGF
now - bitcoin essentially has all 3 of these patterns playing out at the same time...so how do we navigate this properly?

well, I think with patterns we can use 2 variables to weight them

1. precision
2. size
1. precision

okay so this one right here is why/how I think a lot of traders misuse patterns.

it's very easy to let your bias influence a chart, rather than the other way around.

let me add two trendlines to a chart and I can make it look however I'd like.
when you're an objective observer to charts rather than an emotionally attached bagholder...

your analysis can become systematic and consistent.

you start seeing charts for what they are rather than what you want them to be
so how about a live example? okay.

bitcoin right now.

lets play a game of bearish vs. bullish
bearish bitcoin -

as we see we have a head & shoulders playing out.

precision - well, if our first and last high are supposed to be the same...and they aren't...then this pattern doesn't seem exactly "valid"

size - medium.
bullish bitcoin -

wait a second, is that the god triangle?

precision - seems precise...not forcing it.

size - large
so here we are, a bearish and bullish case.

but if we're being honest with ourselves it seems the bullish case is simpler, precise and less "forced"

plus, the pattern is larger. the higher the timeframe with your analysis, the more weight you give to it.
so I guess what we've boiled our analysis down to is that so long as bitcoin is above trendline A, we can maintain a bullish bias.

so long as bitcoin is below trendline B, we assume price is compressing
remember, with triangles you want to use one line for your bias and the other for your opportunity cost.

momentum is resetting...if bitcoin breaks above our op cost line we want to be long, if bitcoin breaks below our bias line we want to be short.
as @MagUraCrypto said, in the middle, while bitcoin is compressing/consolidating/being squeezed ...

we want to long altcoins

https://t.co/wVOlZ82osi
the whole point of these patterns is to make trading simpler, not more difficult.

it's only if you're able to separate your analysis from your emotions that you'll be able to do this effectively.
they say if a person shows you their true colors, you shouldn't try to repaint them.

same goes for your trading.
thanks for reading, i hope you enjoyed!

RISHI ASHTAVAKRA(DEVAL)

Those who are well versed in our ancient scriptures must definitely have come across the name of Ashtavakra Muni. Who was he and what is the story behind his body getting crooked from all sides.

Muni Asit was the son of Pracheta Rishi.


He was childless and this caused a lot of worry to him. But an Akashvani assured him that he should go to Shivji to get all his
worries nullified.

So he along with his wife go to Shivji and after paying him obeisance start singing Shivji's praises.

He describes Shiv as the one who is beyond any other thing, whose glory has no words to describe. After this the couple stands with folded hands in front of Rudradev. The strotras sung in praise of Shiv possess magical qualities even today.

Shiv gets satisfied by them soon and is ready to grant a boon.

Shiva told him that, he very well knew what the Muni desired. He then gives him the "Sansaar Vijay' mantra and asks him to keep reciting it. The Isht devi would come at an appropriate time and fulfill his wish.

Asit Muni kept reciting this mantra for hundred years. The Devi appeared and granted him the boon of a son as a Shivansh. A son was born and was named as Deval. He grew upto be a great scholar well versed and a handsome young man. Asit Muni got him married to Ratnamalavati.

One key element of the Islamic intellectual tradition is the commentary. Commentaries on the Qurʼan (tafsīr) began early in Islamic history, but from about the 12th or 13th century, well into the 19th, commentaries on other scholarly texts became extremely common. -jm


Usually a commentary is called a sharḥ, and a supercommentary (i.e. a commentary on a commentary) is called a ḥāshiyah. Sometimes you get all the way up to a fourth- or fifth-level supercommentary. -jm


Sometimes it's hard to even tell what the "core text" is, because even a very famous text that's the core of many commentaries might present itself as an abridgement or comment on something even earlier. -jm


Commentaries might serve multiple purposes: to explain obscure grammar or vocabulary, to dig into particular legal cases, etc. Even to show why the core text is wrong. Eventually you get some Ottoman Turkish commentaries that translate Persian poems and then comment on them. -jm


Authors of commentaries often mark quotes from the core text by key words like "qawluhu" ("what he said") and manuscripts often emphasize this by writing these words in red or putting a line over the quoted text, so you can figure out who is talking. -jm

Hinduism is a minority religion in Punjab.

During the Khalistan movement, the minority Hindus and Jains were subjected to several attacks. Hindu and Jain temples were frequently vandalized and desecrated. This thread documents a few instances.

Thread

Durgiana Mandir is one of the oldest temples of Amritsar. According to the regional Hindu tradition, the temple was built on the spot where Lava and Kusha bound Hanuman. The temple annually attracts millions of Hindus from all over the country.


Amristsar has a very ancient Hindu history.

According to the regional Hindu tradition recorded in the "Survey of Amritsar", Amritsar got its name from Amrit immersed by Lava and Kusha in a pond.


Durgiana Mandir was rebuilt in 1921.

It was used to house the Murtis of Vishnu and Durga which were thrown out from the Parikrama of Harmandir Sahib in 1905.

Because of its presence in Amritsar, it became a frequent target of radicals during the Khalistan movement.


In 1982, in what was a completely unprovoked attack, the Dal Khalsa "activists" threw a severed cow head inside Durgiana temple.

I shall narrate the story of Nidadavole Kota Satthema temple in West Godavari district, Andhra


Nidadavole is a sleepy little town in the district of West Godavari, located a few kilometres from the Godavari. Among other things, it is famous for its Gramadevatha and Kshetrapalika, the Goddess Kota Satthema


In the tenth century, Nidadavole was known as Nirvadhyapuram, and was under the rule of the Eastern Chalukyas. They were nominal feudatories of the Kakatiyas of Warangal. The local Sthalapurana indicates that the original temple was built by one king called Virabhadra.


This Virabhadra has been identified as the husband and royal regent of the Kakatiya Empress, Rani Rudramadevi who ruled Central Deccan during the period. The original stone figure of the Goddess was built within a fort during his reign.


The goddess was worshipped as the Shakti of the Fort. Over time the name entered the vernacular parlance as Kota (the telugu word for Fort) and Satthema (a local vulgarisation of the word Shakti).

This post is pretty bizarre, but it manages to hit on so many false beliefs that I've seen hurt junior data scientists that it deserves some explicit

(1) The notion that R is well-suited to "building web applications" seems totally out of left field. I don't feel like most R loyalists think this is a good idea, but it's worth calling out that no normal company will be glad you wrote your entire web app in R.

(2) It is true that Python had some issues historically with the 2-to-3 transition, but it's not such a big deal these days. On the flip side, I have found interesting R code that doesn't run in modern R interpreters because of changes in core operations (e.g. assignment syntax).

(3) "Most of the time we only need a latest, working interpreter with the latest packages to run the code" -- this is where things get real and reveal some things that hurt data scientists. If this sentence is true, it's likely because you don't share code with coworkers.

(3) Really is a broader issue in data science: people only think of what they need to do their work if no one else existed and code was never maintained. Junior data scientists almost always operate on projects they start from scratch and don't have to maintain for long.

READ AND RETWEET AS THOUGH THE LIFE OF YOUR NATION DEPENDS ON IT. WHICH IT DOES. Citizens, I am going to add to the picture with more information. I am not going to let this pass while keeping information to myself. I am going to walk you through 2 narratives.

A printing shop in Michigan prints ballots for Delaware County, Pennsylvania and as Lancashire County, Pennsylvania (this is normal). But along with the ballots it prints on contract and delivers to those counties, it prints some ballots that get diverted to Bethpage, New York.

There, a boiler room of folks fill in "Biden" (often without even voting downballot). The ballots (which are forensically legitimate, given that they come from the same print shop as the good ballots, ) then get trucked into Pennsylvania and mailed. Hundreds of thousands.

We have all of that documented. Texts, statements, affidavits, everything.

We also know that this same ballot printing company (and other firms in the same family) also print for Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Georgia.

Surendra Ananth @surendraananth, you violated my conditional consent. I assented to unprotected intimate relations with you on the STRICT condition that you tell me if you have relations with anyone else. You failed to do so, and I became ill as a direct consequence.

You refused to reveal your own STI results to me, but claimed to others they were negative and alleged I had multiple other partners, slut-shaming me. You gaslit me saying you had told me about your other partners.

You called up @justice_sisters and @SistersinIslam to tell them I was crazy, jilted. You rebuffed attempts to organise a community mediation so we could address matters. You said I was crazy for speaking to your boss and father in an attempt to keep other women safe.

You have a PATTERN OF BEHAVIOUR of misogyny, harassment and sheer disrespect for women. This was sent to a friend of mine who has never expressed interest in you and has a partner.


You think women are playthings, notches on the bedpost. You, @surendraananth, are no human rights advocate.

One fascist to watch in 2021 is Joseph Charles "Oakman" Golinske of SE MI. He's been a Proud Boy for a couple years, but took a break recently from the group and promotes himself through the "Oak Nation" channel on Telegram.


Most people may be familiar with him as the tall guy in the Proud Boys bridge shot, from their August 17, 2019 attack on Portland, which featured an American Guard bus trying (and failing) to bludgeon antifascists with hammers.


He was also with his g/f at the time (Dominique Tota, left of Tarrio), and that's definitely a twitter account folks will want to block/report because he posts on it.


He's been plenty active at the pro-Covid/anti-mask/ReOpen protests in Lansing MI, seen here with Jerry Wayne and an effigy of Gretchen Whitmer, who his militia friends tried to kidnap and publicly execute.


Outside of the Proud Boys, his solo "career" with Oak Nation features the same misogyny, classism and gateway to far-right domestic terrorism the Proud Boys themselves feature. Here's him peddling oxychlorinque and bragging about harassing service workers.
