TA vs FA

Technical Analysis vs Fundamental Analysis

TA works 90% of the times, FA works many times but when FA works, TA takes a backseat

Don’t blindly use TA during times of major economic events & catalysts from other co-related markets

Thread 🧵
It’s wise not to use TA during the black swan events or during uncertain emotional events

Wait for that event to pass & TA will eventually takeover price action

Global stocks are dumping hard with Nasdaq $NQ leading the pack. For now $BTC is closely correlated with #Nasdaq

..3
#Bitcoin gave up all the gains and is back below original breakout levels. I won’t apply TA for the day until I see Nasdaq finishing a floor. The dump is brutal and hard.

Next support for NASDAQ is 5% away from current levels. Let’s wait and see if that holds

….4
$BTC dump also triggered a sell off across the board for ALTs as well. Next support 40500 & 39000 round number.

If we break 39000 conclusively and if nasdaq breaks it’s support at 14000, we will be in a confirmed bear market

Doesn’t mean we are going to zero but

…5
But that surely means a prolonged sideways and choppy price action with downward bias for most majors.

Keep an eye on #NASDAQ 14700 level which itself is a major support in the current price zone. If we break that next 14260 & 14000 & after that free fall to 12900

…6
While stocks have the tendency to dump hard they also have the ability to bounce back hard. But need to wait and see how stocks behave

Jan 26th is an important date in the calendar so mark it. We’ve Jan FOMC meeting & bond yields are likely to rise

….7
Rising bond yields could mean stocks may be crushed across the board especially tech stocks & high growth stocks and if #bitcoin continues to be correlated with #Nasdaq we will see it’s ripple effects on entire #cryptocurrencies market

What to do & how to play ?

….8
When asset prices starts trending down and we develop a confirmed bearish trend, buying them is like catching a knife

Best trade in town is always buy when assets are trending up or let them die and wait for bottom consolidation & fresh local breakouts

…9
It’s not all lost as long as #Bitcoin holds the crucial support levels. Our best case scenario is #crypto decoupling with stocks at some stage & post local reversals

However let’s analyze downside scenarios. Almost every major #crypto index is testing a key support level

…10
If those levels break the downside support is anywhere from 10-30% away for those indexes. I am referring to #TOTAL #TOTAL2 #TOTAL3 #MIDPERP & #SHITPERP

#bitcoin itself has multiple support between 38K & 29K

So those sitting on cash can scoop some dips if we get any

…11
Otherwise let’s wait & see #NASDAQ tomorrow. Remember both nasdaq and #bitcoin are testing key support level. As long as they hold we are ok. If not let’s prepare for doom & gloom scenario for few weeks!

Oversold Conditions

The entire market is oversold across all major timeframes. That doesn’t mean we will do a V shape recovery

At best we will get 23.6 / 38.2 FIB bounce for some of the major coins and potential 61.8 / 78.6 for trending coins from past few weeks

Thread 🧵
How to spot reversals and how to profit in current market conditions ?

There are two types of coins with two different behaviors

Coins that were trending up and pumping hard before this entire dump saga began & coins that were going sideways / down trending

…..3
Coins that were sideways / down trending even before this dump started will be laggards when we get relief rally

Coins that were trending up / breaking new highs / strong momentum coins / good hype / big community will recover 50-150% very quickly on relief rallies

Free Alpha

Do yourself a favor and add OBV indicator on your charts. Now add 20 & 200 MA on top of OBV indicator

Add an indicator on top of an indicator. Now you can spot price vs OBV divergences easily

Read this thread for more…..
Now watch H1 for short term reversals and H4 & Daily for mid term reversals

Works best after huge pumps and dumps to find reversal clues

After a big dump, If OBV breaks above 20/200 MA & if 20 MA turns into support, expect local reversal

…..3
If price is below 20/200 & OBV is above 20/200 & holding 20 as support that’s your incoming breakout clue!

What that means is, OBV broke the high but price is still struggling. Price May still dump all the way to retest the low & even two little lower to clean stops but

$BTC vs $USD pairs

How to play?

BTC Up-Trend = Play USD Pairs

BTC Down Trend = Play BTC Pairs

BTC sideways = Play Both

BTC indecisive = Be selective & be prepared to jump either ways on short notice

This is relevant if #Bitcoin Dominance is high & rising up

Thread / 2
If #Bitcoin dominance is diminishing & on its way down, we can play:

$BTC Up-Trend = Up-Trending ALTs with stronger trends than BTC can offer higher profits in USD terms. You get the benefit from BTC up trend + ALTs uptrend

Thread / 3
If #Bitcoin dominance is diminishing

#BTC down trend = Play BTC paired ALTs with strong up-trends. This will help you to beat negative BTC returns & accumulate more #Bitcoins

#BTC sideways = Play whatever is trending

#BTC indecisive = Be prepared to jump either ways

ALTs update

#USD paired ALTs are pumping, mostly thx to $BTC pump against #USD

$BTC paired ALTs continued to struggle but are showing bottoming process for last few days

Here is how to play ALTs:

Check the Thread /2
If you are into $BTC you may flip your #BTC position for ALTs for next few days if #Bitcoin struggles against key resistance & can’t post higher highs in next few days

Which ALTs to choose ?

2 setups

Trend Continuation
Trend Reversal

I prefer 1st one, let’s discuss both /3
Trend Continuation is relevant for those ALTs which are still trending up against $BTC

There aren’t many, but handful of them like #LTC #BNB are taking a breather against $BTC But May find a support & eventually pump again

What about Trend Reversal? /4

Regarding new traders asking for “when big reversal”, here are some scenarios

#Bitcoin spent considerable time in 6000-6500 range. Most key indicators did suggest we will have downside break eventually & we have that now

It can’t do 180 degree turn & reverse all the way /2
/2 Here are some Scenarios

There is a strong support around 4500+/- 10%, First we need to find the bottom and post a large upside wick in an hourly candle to find the bottom

5700-5850 will offer strong upside resistance followed by 6100 area

/3
/3

Price will most lively stop at 5700-5750 & 6100 in the topside And come back down, all the way to retest the double bottom area

Some consolidation on the bottom before an attempt to break the topside resistance above 6100
