 The elusive stegosaurus pattern has emerged. https://image.nostr.build/0d1fe7df305e639c652b9a0d2aa648cf429c176816b6878c4e0a93d7a914ed9e.jpg

 Lololol...🤣😂

Pretty much my perception of technical analysis, which is why I just hodl.😜 
 The only profitable way to day trade or high frequency trade is with algorithmic platforms. You need a lot of money/leverage to make the profit worthwhile, And it is very risky. Swing trades are still manageable, 1 week trades, But it should not be a significant amount of your portfolio and doing this professional traders look for 6% a year. Bitcoin is a really easy duration risk trade, The halving cycle makes a predictable 3 on 1 off 4 year market cycle. There is an extremely small amount of people with Bitcoin who never take profits, And most of these coins are lost, Or people who forgot about them. People actively using Bitcoin are in and out, And usually all the way into market tops are taking profits and putting back in during drawdowns. The technical analysis given by any trader is different every time, And doing your research on each stock comes with experience, Not a formula that fits every stock. Bitcoin is what I know best at this point, And it is the most profitable, From a retail or institutional or macro perspective. The only way to outperform Bitcoin is in energy at a hedge fund level, But by then you probably don’t need advice on chart patterns. If you want to see some pretty entertaining stuff check out the degens making call options videos from Wall Street bets Reddit pages. Pretty hilarious to listen to 20 year old finance students talk about legendary gains and losses. People will do exactly as stupid of things with money you would assume them to.
