Let’s start this week with an update of the 100% winning STRATE𝔾 for #Bitcoin.

TradingView Chart

🟩 Market capitulates, <DCA IN>

  • RSI BOTTOMS flashes green

  • NUPL hits green ‘Capitulation’ zone

  • MVRZ hits green horizontal


🔵 Market starts bullrun, <BOTTOM IS IN>

  • Best to be fully scaled in at this point

  • 𝔾-indicator flashes black after long time blue


🟥 Market is in Euphoria, <DCA OUT>

  • RSI TOPS flashes red

  • NUPL hits red ‘Euphoria’ zone

  • MVRZ hits red horizontal

  • (Option: start selling only in the yellow exponential curve zone)


⚫ Market loses momentum, TOP IS IN

  • It’s time to fully scale out of the market

  • 𝔾-indicator flashes black after long time blue

  • Last four times first a dead-cat bounce occurred, after which the second wave down kicked in. Great opportunity to scale out.

  • Only prior to the COVID dip in March 2020 the black signal flashed without first the red signal. This was a strong signal to scale out of the market as soon as possible. Since the blue signal was at a lower level, this was possible directly without any loss. During the COVID dip the green signal flashed, showing a buying opportunity. Shortly thereafter a blue signal came in, showing it was best to be all-in again.
