I don't think 'seasoned traders' make a claim about the market reversing every couple of hours....please don't patronise me.

Well I dont claim a reversal every few hours. but reversals happen over days.... we can joke all day long.
I am a seasoned trader and I don't need confirmation

I've just seen your profile, if you really are only a 21 year old Kiwi then trust me - you are not a seasoned trader, nor an expert in anything, especially not human psychology as you claim. I mention Kiwi because, while I love Auckland but prefer Wellington, your country is somewhat isolated and your values and attitudes somewhat different from those in say NY or London.
But your age would explain your urge for validation here.
Get over yourself. Ive spent five years at university and 4 years trading markets. Im pretty darn successful too. I am a seasoned trader. Like I said, I dont need your judgement.
A kiwi split the atom.
it is a strength to separate yourself from the crowd. the fact that I have different values and attitudes than in say NY or London is a strength. And why are you so Eurocentric? the chinese are kings of the world if there are any.
The more I read what you have written there the more BS I see. I never said I was an expert in Human psychology. Of coarse I'm here to try validate things, this is a frieakin speculation forum. you have no idea if I am not an expert at anything. I have a masters degree. Ill have you know that Auckland where I live is a metting ground for cultures all around the world. I have seen and met more than poms and yankees.
So, you are not 21 as you state.
I apologize re. the psychology...its just you say everything with such certainty I assumed you are expert in everything.
The only thing I'm sure of "you sir, are no Ernest Rutherford".
But if you want to argue with a researcher:

I cashed out at 750.... gonna buy at 380, I think 300 is right on the mark but dont count on it!!
1st March
we will likely be around 500-700 for a long time.
3rd March
this is a critical point..... Im warming up to the prospect of 'to da moon!'
7th MArch
bought at 100, sold at 750, bought at 500, sold at 650, price now = 620......
16th March
I bought at $120, purely speculative, held, and sold at 750 after the AHT, bought at 450 - 500, and I am day trading the volatility now. soon I will return to hibernation as a long term trader and wait for the moon.
18th MArch
I think it will go to 580 if not 560 according to EW analysis. but best not be too greedy, 594 is a good price fo sho. Grin
28th March
Consider 465 a very significant bottom.
29th March
everyone take one last look at my witch craft before I throw some dice and the market goes as I please.
and still hodling long from 475
predicts market will rise to 3400CNY using EW - market stays flat then falls
2nd April
Huobi is showing a lot of strength. I expect 540 in 12 hours.
and
I have evidence that large investors are buying;
-Risto is buying (LOLing hard at this one)
3rd April
this could easily be the beginning of a $100 move. The Chinese customers will be going to bed. no more panic selling for the next 10 hours.

China has awoken! today is the day of the BULL!
4th April
Ive been able to scrape together profit from calling 465, 435 and 425 bottoms.

ok bitcoin, now's your chance. go go go! fly!
Today
OMG I owe you one for this link!
cheers! (seasoned trader only today finds hypron.net LOL)
Im holding from $100 average.
Ive been following it since $2 and Ive been speculating since $80.
I appreciate modifying and changing your opinion is not a bad thing but you do seem to have an almost psychotic urge to post every thought that crosses your mind. The list of quotes above is neither comprehensive nor complete, just a random sample but you do contradict yourself quite often. I'm not trying to embarrass you but do this in the hope others are not taken in by your apparent 'competency'.
I'll be taking your posts with a large grain of 'seasoning'.
