The Elliott Wave principle is a theory of market analysis that suggests that financial markets move in predictable patterns, reflecting shifts in investor psychology.
It proposes that market trends consist of a series of five upward waves (impulses) and three downward waves (corrections).
These waves are subdivided into smaller patterns, creating a fractal-like structure.
Traders and analysts use this theory to predict potential future price movements.

I imagine it might start with a constitution of sovereignty and an open source manual of how to create an increasingly life supporting, sustainable way in every community, by the people, and for the people of that community.

The Tower of Basel
- sketches within view of the 18th floor where the 18 meet
The cafe exuded an air of comfort, yet beneath its facade of tranquility lay hidden currents that mirrored the complexities of the city itself.
Richard sat alone at a corner table, his fingers tracing the rim of an absinthe glass, while the hum of conversation around him seemed to murmur secrets only he could decipher.
Maria lingered by the bar, her gaze trained on the reflections in the mirror. Her posture conveyed an attentiveness that spoke of calculated observations, her focus shifting from one patron to another.
As the minutes stretched on, a hushed tension settled, each patron's murmurs a veiled exchange. Richard's gaze, once distant, sharpened, and Maria's casual demeanor belied an underlying intensity that caught his attention.
The bartender moved with a practiced nonchalance, his eyes a mosaic of curiosity and restraint. He served drinks, wiped down surfaces, and engaged in brief conversations, all the while retaining an unspoken awareness of the undercurrents that flowed through the cafe's veneer of normalcy.
A gust of wind swept through the open door, chilling the air and adding an ominous edge to the otherwise serene setting. The shift in atmosphere was palpable, the calm before an impending storm.
Richard extinguished his cigarette, his gaze narrowing as he stared into the distance. Maria, sensing the shift, turned to him, her voice low but charged.
"Trouble on the horizon, Richard?"
He nodded, his eyes reflecting a mixture of resignation and determination.
"Something's brewing, Maria. Something that transcends the facade."
She nodded, her expression a mix of understanding and caution.
"And how does one navigate such treacherous waters?"
The question hung between them, heavy with unspoken implications. Richard's fingers drummed rhythmically on the table, his words a measured response.
"One learns to read the currents, Maria. To anticipate the hidden tides."
Beyond the cafe's confines, the city moved, seemingly oblivious to the undercurrents that simmered within its heart. Trams passed, their mechanical rhythm a stark contrast to the subdued tension within the cafe. Couples strolled by, laughter masking the whispered conversations that lingered in the air.
The bartender approached Richard's table, a glass of absinthe in hand. He placed it before Richard, his gaze holding a mixture of camaraderie and caution. A fleeting nod passed between them, a silent understanding that their shared observations were more than mere coincidence.
Richard glanced up at the bartender, a flicker of acknowledgment in his eyes.
"Appreciate it."
The bartender's response was a tight smile, his gaze a reminder that even amidst the cafe's apparent simplicity, the shadows held secrets that transcended casual encounters.
As the afternoon waned, Richard and Maria's unspoken exchange continued, their gestures laden with subtext that conveyed more than words ever could. Their connection, woven through sidelong glances and subtle movements, seemed to hint at shared knowledge that extended beyond the confines of the cafe.
When Maria stood to leave, her gaze locked onto Richard's for a moment, a silent promise of understanding that ran deeper than casual acquaintanceship.
He watched her depart, a sense of impending urgency gnawing at him.
As the day transformed into evening, the cafe's facade remained unchanged. Patrons flowed in and out, conversations carried on, and the bartender continued his well-practiced routine. But beneath the surface, beneath the veneer of simplicity, an intricate dance of veiled agendas and hidden intentions played out, a microcosm of the city's complex dynamics.
And in Basel's embrace, the stories of Richard and Maria, like the stories of countless others, were threads woven into the fabric of the cafe's tapestry – a tapestry that hinted at the existence of shadowy forces, just beyond the reach of casual observers, waiting to be unraveled by those who dared to venture deeper into the labyrinthine corridors of power.

#Bitcoin's price, for example in $USD, like any other asset, increases and decreases.
In the ebb and flow of supply and demand, buyers want to buy cheap and sell expensive. Sellers want to sell expensive and buy cheap.
That applies to everything in the market. From buying apples, a ticket to Costa Rica, or a piece of land to make our home.
Fundamental and technical analysis, depending on an investor or trader's bias may suggest the Bitcoin price increasing or decreasing.
The "Big Guys," the Institutional traders, *control and *manipulate the markets.
Looking at a BTCUSD candlestick chart on any timeframe, indicates whether the buyers or sellers are in control. Indicates when to buy cheap and sell expensive. Indicates probability. If you know how to read the chart.
And with any market, who is in control (the buyers or sellers) continually changes, short, mid and long term.
I'm both a hodler and trader. Thats how I stack sats. No matter in which direction the market is unfolding.
Staying humble, yes, because no one, including hodlers, retail and institutional traders, know what the price of Bitcoin will be, next week, next month, or next year.
That's the reality.
