I'm trying to get a better understanding of how to time getting in and out of cryptos.

What is your measurement for candlesticks? 1min/15min/30min/1hr/1day/1week/etc?

i'm a pleb, but it helps to look at the rsi. if that shit is high, sell don't buy

I’ve heard mixed things about TA. Some say yes it totally works, some say no it’s just confirmation bias so I don’t even know anymore. I’m sure if we took 10 anons from here looking at the same chart we’d get 15 different answers.

most people saying TA is a meme are lying to keep newfags in the dark or just parroting someone else saying it

i was legit this guy and now i'm slowly reforming. good TA will let you know in the moment sentiment, an indispensable tool for day/swing trading. it certainly won't account for a mcafee tweet though!

Thank you kindly for the suggestion.

>>5631027
Oh I don't doubt it, but the way I figure it, people are creature of both convenience and habit. TA might not be perfect but it just like in poker there might be some 'tells' that one just needs to see ever so often in the market.

I'm just trying to get a better sense of scale and whether to focus more macro (1 day/week/month) or more micro (1min/15min/30min) to grow the little money I have in the marker (sub $3 k) little by little.

TA is hogwash!

We use TA as a sort of speculative tool to aide us. It is complete confirmation bias and is not entirely representative of the market and all factors involved. Does not predict/consider political interventions such as what we saw in South Korea and their exchanges, it just looks at patterns and spits back similar trends

According to the RSI for Stellar, it's been overbought and might be due for a dip. And if you look at the RSI for Ripple that thing is WAY off the chart.

>> No.5631295

I notice that a lot of indicators only look correct after the fact. Prior to a pump/crash, there's no indication that either event would happen.

go to a plebcore market like tradesatoshi and coinsmarket and lurk for a coin that has a decent website. if it's a couple of satoshi's, dump some light gainz in there and shill it on /biz/

TA is bullshit. For real.

My YTD is 1000%+ ROI vs BTC; my total (since dec 2013) vs BTC is 18000%+. Pick assets with strong fundamentals and hodl.

no, it's really not, you should set the time a little bigger so you can see some trends.

no it's not, TA is great in the short run for predicting good prices and shit like that. It's primarily for day-trading, or for picking good jump in spots to hold at. It does not replace qualitative analysis
