If you don't know how to "break down" the technicals yourself, there are plenty of training videos out there, already on the internet, which would be good for you begin a serious "self-education" period. Listening to @haejin doesn't REALLY tell you anything - he gives you a positive & a negative scenario & even tells you NOT to make trades on any of his advice. Reading his multi-day updates on crypto price action, when they are clearly in a current downtrend, is great at making him a bunch of money on SteemIt. He's good at it. He's entertaining. Read it like you read your horoscope or the Sunday comics in the paper - but educate yourself on how to make your own financial decisions. Listening to someone else will often make you poor. Educating yourself will give you the confidence to exercise your own power to make good decisions.
@haejin material is sometimes entertaining, but I always learn something from it. It helps me separate pure BS from real information. Whatever @haejin reports is pure BS, so subtract that out of the information flow and whatever is left has value.
I agree with your characterization that the TA from haejin is similar to a horoscope in the Sunday comics.
That is a fair and realistic assessment. Thanks for providing that context
Realistically, @haejin is way too advanced of a trader for most of us to successfully replicate. Trading with Elliot Wave Theory is like looking at an elephant through a microscope. Few people are going to be able to follow these commentaries, aggregate the tiny details like haejin does, also look at the macros, and then be able to hit home runs as a short trader. IT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN FOR 90% OF TRADERS - because they are not THAT good. I've been studying this stuff for 10 months straight and I'm lucky - my short trades are still in slightly positive territory, overall. Last month I was at 30% profits on my short trades, but after this last bull trap I'm at, maybe 10% profit, and that's not bad in a bear market. But, I'm learning that even good/smart traders struggle to pull any profits in a bear market. If you come out even, you're doing better than average.
Most of us should be doing small trades and experimenting/testing our strategies and ideas in this downwards trend. It's like paying for your education, and learning how you react when you have "skin in the game." You might not think so, but failure is actually the greatest teacher - so learn how to fail smaller. When the bull market returns, you will still have skin in the game & profits will be easier to make.
Nope. @haejin is a BS artist that rights superficial articles. If he was such a strong trader, he wouldn't have all his money sitting with @ranchorelaxo and trying to make a few bucks on the sly by raping rewards pool on Steemit.com
Exact same situation as when you get the hard sales push by "some guy" who says he has found the secrets of making money in real estate. And all you have to do is send him $49 for his course material.
If he really had the secret to making millions in real estate, he wouldn't be selling his courseware at $49 a pop.
Same story for @haejin. If he really knew how to make money with TA in crypto space, he wouldn't be wasting his time with $99 posts, at a rate of 10X per day.
Does that really sound like some super TA trader? That has enough free time to write up his 10X steemit articles per day.
