Technical Comment:
“You Know the Drill.” To get a two to four-month “buy the trend” signal, we need these four things to happen:
- Relative strength (RSI) above 50% of the market – Positive
- MACD Crossover – Positive
- CMF above the Zero Line – Positive
- Price above 50-day moving average – Positive
Risk management:
- Traders -trailing stop loss 1/3 of your predetermined minimum sell goal. We suggest staged selling, 1/3 – 1/3 – 1/3. Example 15% minimum targeted gain translates to a 4.95% stop loss on cost, and then followed up with a trailing stop. This allows you to lose on two of three trades and still make money. Best for short-attention span market participants. Short-attention spans are not a negative. Use who you are as your strength! If that is who you are, use it, but channel it!
- Investors and Speculators – if you like the macro and fundamental set-up for the industry and company, you might use dollar-cost-averaging risk management strategy instead of using a stop loss. This is the best risk management tool for wealth building. Best for people comfortable with delayed gratification returns.

Why we like Bitcoin and Commodities Now!
One of the Biggest Debtor Nations
The USA has “debt to GDP of more than 130 percent. That almost never ends without hyper-inflation or debt restructuring.” Mike Novogratz Founder/CEO Galaxy Digital, former partner at Goldman Sachs. July 30, 2022.
In such an environment, Bitcoin with its limited issuance size, and commodities, with gold and paid for property being the most stable, as the best places to be invested. LOTM.
Specific to Crypto:
When a market – any market – has a liquidity and debit crisis with multiple industry leaders in liquidation or bankruptcy, it marks the end of the downward cycle. Always volatile, Bitcoin has a high probability of being past its cycle low prices. As shown in the chart above, Bitcoin is on an intermediate term buy signal. We do not know at this time if this buy signal will turn into a long-term trend buy. We need time for the trend to develop. Technical chart patterns can be destroyed by adverse news or events at any times. Position your personal risk factor to match the possibility of such a Black Swan event.
