what i see? bitcoin climbing the stairs.
the price increases by approximately 10-12% with each step it climbs. perhaps this bull market will be different from the others in this regard. we know that price volatility has decreased and market cap has increased. therefore,
we may need to be prepared to change our definition of a bull market. if the price continues to climb by two more steps, we could see an ath between 150-155k.
What is your definition of a bull market that is needing to be changed?
We are in a bull market until we are not, right?
We been in a bull market since about November 2022, yet we might not have had realized it until either mid-2023 or perhaps as late as October/November 2023.
Perhaps at some point, we will go back to being in a bear market? Yet maybe the bear market is skipped this cycle? Is that your definition of a change in the bull market?
Maybe if the BTC price breaks below the 100-WMA? or even comes within 25% of the 200-WMA those might be signs of a transition from a bull to a bear market?
I doubt that guys here agree on the definition anyhow. Some guys seem to think something like a 10% correction constitutes a bear market, and sure others how other definitioins that might have both a quantity factor and a time factor.
For me, I tend to think that going from bear to bull and then from bull to bear could end up having errors so that by the time we might recognize that we had been in a bear market, for example, then we might end up transitioning back into a bull market. I am not clear in my own definitions except to consider that there is both a time and a quantity element so it might not be easy to know which one we are in during a transitionary period or a potential transitionary period.

OOM - Is there anything I can help you with ahead of time to assist in your deeper research?
Jay - Thanks for the smerit! Pics of my Ham stuff were indeed mine and not fake. Do you want to see my Ham license without my name/address or callsign?
For some reason I had not seen that I was addressed in this post.
You don't have to listen to anything that I say.. and surely there is no expectations that guys post information that gives away their OPsec matters, yet if you post something that may either relate to OpSec matters or that maybe you had posted in other places (if that is the story), then you might need to say something about it before some forum member (seemingly OOM in this case) ends up having to spend time searching for the images that you had posted and to see that they had been used in other places.. which may or may not have had been your posts.
We are each individuals with our own opinions (to the extent that we are not bots), and one of the problem for me is that you spent time posting your price gatchet, in a way that seems to have had been an attempt to show a photo that has some time factor or even some factor that it was a photo that was unique (and timely) to you, which you could have had easily done the same in regards to your Ham set up or even to say this is what it used to look like, and this is what it looks like now or some other thing that better explains, and if you already explained and I overlooked it, then I don't claim to be able to catch all things that are posted, and it is possible that I overreacted.. Possible? possible? A lot of times several of us just go based on some level of trust or getting used to the styles of other members, yet if there is something that is posted that raises red flags (and/or the responses seem off), then sometimes the red flags do not easily get resolved.
Geez, Do all newbies have to go through this shit?
Quite a nice welcome!!!
Sometimes members raise their own shit... and even longer term forum members might get themselves in a pickle from time to time. Not all newbies go through shit... and sometimes, newbies, or other members will go through short periods of shit, yet they might have had contributed to the level of their shit in terms of their reaction(s)... and maybe some members have more of a victim mentality (and approach) than others which it does not really help the situation and may even contribute to their own worsening of their situation. None of us can really react for another person.. .. or instruct you how to react.
It would not be any fun if all members were to respond in the exact same ways... Sometimes buttons will be purposefully pressed, and some members deal with such button pressing in better ways than others.
