The fact that the market is calm and waiting for a break and also Eith is sucking up all other altys and even betece strengthens my conviction on this move. If it breaks it, then brother the party begins. I have been waiting for this for over a month
This market can be volatile and unpredictable but the cycles are well respected...

Eith breaks ATH, the party begins


BTW, who else trades leveraged tokens?

Breakout across board...
Lot's of majors looking insanely bullish... Not seen coyns this bullish in a while...

Dot seems to have broken out too...
No need to chase them guy...identify those retesting breakout levels for entry

DON'T
Hehe... Na human nature.... Even if it happens 100x, people will still rush in 100x knowing that majority will get burnt...

My advice with all the pnd which will keep coming up is simple...

Try nd keep off except you get in very early...
Either way, if you must trade it, its advisable not to allocate more that 10% of your portfolio to that trade...

Those coyns are meant to increase your betece... Its not advisable to have more portfolio in micros than betece nd eith.... Wahala be like bicycle

Sold my 0.2 eith at 1480 and was waiting for a dip which didn't happen. I missed the pump from 1480 to 1557

Had to jump in at 1520, Gosh.

I didn't even know what made me sold it cos I've been hodling for like 5months, geez
Hehe...

It was quite obvious you sold at the wrong time... For large coyns, selling to buy dips shouldn't be random
If you thought it'd dip in that range, the best was to wait for it to dip below 1400 or set a stoploss below 1400 if you're worried of a rapid selloff.

I remember advising you to take a retest of the 1500 level which was bought up quickly as expected.

Now you may get in and it dumps further compounding the loss or you may stay out and it jeeps running....

But anyway, no one has all perfect trades... There'd always be opportunities

Don't know so much about soft wallets. @abduljabber1 could be of help. They are good but obviously not as secure as hardware ones

Now that bold is my major concern with this day trading and use of Stop-loss.
To add to the above, let me give you an example of what I said using Band. I got some around 6-7

It pumped over 30% yesterday... Usually, when sensible coins pump that way, there'd be a pullback...

If you look at the first chart (4hrly I think), it broke out after testing anf reclaiming the 10.5 level the 4th time (remember 4th) and ran...
The next place to stop will be at significant resistance..
Guess where?... Look at the weekly chart (second pic) and you see why it got rejected at the 12.5 level. That was a level that acted as resistance in September 2020.

On rejection, it went back to test support (1st pic) and confirmed the 10.5 area which was a previous resistance as support.
A good bounce here confirms the bullish trend and its heading towards 12.5 again.

If it takes 12.5, the next logical stop from the chart will be 14.5 and ATH at 16.5 ish......

If you're trading, identifying these areas to enter/exit is much better than relying on your stop loss to be hit... You can always re-enter on a claim of resistance

This is a clean chart... Others may not be so clean... But a good coyn will always have structure.
As a day trader, alot lies in identifying support/resistance areas or demand/supply clusters so you don't keep jumping in and out at random places... Coyns don't just move because they move

Seems xrp did alot of people dirty... Hehe..

Welcome to crypto... Almost every investor/trader here has been burnt by exrp at one time or the other..we all learn lessons...

It'd still bounce back... But no one knows when. Nd be sure any immediate bounce will be sold into as frustrated folks plenty...

I too an early leap from Eth and it is still waxing strong, Is it advisable to dive in again ?

Now that bold is my major concern with this day trading and use of Stop-loss.

I discovered stop-loss keep making me miss out on rapid moves, especially around resistance/support level. Also, jumping in and out doesn't seem profitable. Still seriously researching.

Loss is a great motivator....the way I'm digging info and checking different strategies....you do think I lost more than 300usd.
Hehe... some will say stop losses are for bear markets... lol

Understanding the entry point and market cycle is important... letting things ride and taking profits at resistance, to reenter at retest of support or claim of resistance can sometimes be better than depending on your stoploss to bail you out..

Stop loss is to prevent u from making losses not necessarily to protect your profit except you time it well. Also, it works best on coins that hold structure e.g eith not ones who wick allover the place

Its not compicated. Yoy deposit in your spot wallet transfer to P2P then initiate a trade to buy. Alternatively go to Binance academy (or download) and read up on any info you need
He can just buy spot directly on the exchange rather than going through p2p

Oga jedisco, abeg i need to know the next call...i lost halve of my money 30k to xrp should opt out n buy btc ?
I'm not keen on specific calls, but understanding the phase of the market is important

Eith rules the alyt market... when it moves, they keep quiet. While looking for the next, I don't like to time the top of very strong moves prematurely...

After eith is done, the majors will follow quickly, followed by the mid and low caps

The market is very bullish... Betece obviously is grinding up... Once it crosses 39-40k and starts accelerating, expect it to suck life outta altys while it runs... When it settles, they'd explode

if youre asking for specifics...
betece and eith seem very bullish here

For other altys:
ADA, VET, LINK, LTC and XLM seem the most likely to take the baton from eth once it settles... and they'd likely pump more than it

That said, remember betece has lots of resisitance ahead... 38k, 40k, 42k so they'd be pullbacks to reload though I believe they'd be bought up quickly as the trend is becoming more established. No need to FOMO, there'd be dips

Hello Sir.
Please we will appreciate a signal as to the exit position for this eth run.
It all depends on ur trading time frame. For me, I usually want to ride a strong move till it shows signs of exhaustion


Eith here is like betece at 23k.. e never start
Personally, I'd be looking at 2k-2.4k for the initial waka... may continue higher afterthat
That said, its not a PnD that goes up in a straight line. It has to form market structure along the way... so there'd be fluctuations and pull back... Perhaps around 1700-1800 and 2k.

so which private wallet would you recommend to store usdt?
Hardware wallets like trezzor... best to buy from the manufacturers direct

i have thought abt this but btcee could suddenly dip the moment and make that decision. Be like all dips happen when i get into to particular coyn
Did you see the weekly chart against betece?
Aside very brief and shallow pumps, bch has been rolling down the slope...
If you do it 50:50, even if betece dips, you still have half in bch. You're much better off holding betece.
If I was the one, I'd have moved it all to betece sef

Moreso, what do you think will happen to bch if betece dips at this stage? it'd likely dip more.. BCH and BSV are coyns which split from betece and usually pump after betece has pumped.

It's not dipping, lol, i just hope I'm not chasing shadows
You are... Truly, you sold at the worst time... You might end up giving back your profits made to buy higher...

Before you day trade, its good to understand a basic concept of support and resistance... Cos it seems you're just buying and selling arbitrarily...

It's crossed 1500 and I expect acceleration as FOMO will kick in... That said, hope it comes back to flip the 1500 level... If it does, dont wait, jump in

i will hodl onto ltc. I need your advice oo. I got 2 bch for abt a month now. Its not doing well and i use Lu no. I want to sale but the charge is 2% which will cause me a loss. Then selling with limit order is free of fees but it can only be converted to btc and that looks like a loss to. Wetin man go do? Cc: abdul
cheesy
Ur wahala be like bicycle...
In a bull run, all coins will pump but truly, some will frustrate you...
Na my issue with luno, it gives limited options... There's nothing as annoying as holding a useless alyt...

Looking at the weekly chart (1st pic), its holding the 400 level, you can wait to sell at 600 and exit for good

Against betece, (second pic) its in a sorry state...a continuous downward slide with almost no bounces.. You're better off holding betece sef moreso given that it's likely to move up further burying the value of your bch

Omo, make eth better dip oo make i see buy oo.
I already sold all my eith portfolio around 1,480 after making 300% profit .
Hmm... If I might ask, what level are you expecting it to dip to buy again?

There's a good chance you'd be left chasing shadows..

What you did is the equivalent of selling betece when it crossed 20k and was at 21k and waiting for it to dip... Such folks are still waiting for it to dip....

Will usdt be always be pegged to a dollar? I am thinking of saving my money on it in binance .. Please help
USD, BUSD, pax etc are pegged to the dollar and exchange at market price devoid of CBN manipulation. One of the reasons I trade into usdt except when I want to withdraw cos naira is always sliding down.

That said, it's live traded to the naira so sometimes, you can have wicks when someone market buys or sells in volume.


But finally, binance no be bank ooo... If you want to keep significant sums in usdt, then its better to get a private wallet... Also, remember that no one can access your funds without your pass incase of eventualities.

No. It is cheaper to use Debit Card as I compared both options.. But somehow Binance is denying me. I have appealed
Hmmm.... The 150 naira deposit fee aside I don't see how buying with card would be cheaper except binance is selling below market price to you.
Get on the exchange section and see that it's a live market and even though I've not bought with a card, I can say confidently that the cheapest price to buy on binance at any point in time will be the live exchange rate wjich isn't stable

On binance, it says they charge 1.4% (Capped at N2000) for card deposits. Didn't mention buying directly with a card...

Either way, which ever one suits you

Eith needs to start moving and moving quick... this resistance is a strong one.. Above 1500, then acceleration should begin
I'm not keen on it getting significantly below 1400 again... that may lead to a massive selloff
