It’s a cryptocurrency I was hoping Valour would introduce to the Nordic markets. It gets listed today.
It’s a Ethereum competitor that has been gaining a lot of popularity in my Twitter feed. The price has gone up around 30000% since it started trading in May 2020. Recently it has gone down in price due to an unexpected downtime caused by a high number of transaction on it’s beta version.

Plan

I’m unsure if this is a good spot to buy. I’m considering to buy a small starter position here with a stop loss just below. Much like I did with Polkadot. I did stop out twice before it trending up and so far almost doubled in price.
If the price clearly breaks the upper trend line with volume I’m considering adding a larger position.
A second scenario is that my stop is triggered. I will then look for reversals near the lower trend line or at the different trend based Fibonacci levels (112 USD and 76 USD), before buying a new position. Current price is around 160 USD.
I will consider exciting all crypto positions if Bitcoin closes its price below 42 500 USD.
Best of luck and protect your capital!
