What can I say? The figures speak for themselves!
I expected Coinbase to continue the upward trend along the channel. Hah, it took a downward turn (the single long red candle in the right third of the image below) and I decided to hold on.
A while later I left the computer for a short time and look what happened 😥.

That really hurt. I should have got out so much earlier. I had only upped the account 2 days before.
I started wondering if the upward trend had actually changed to a downwards one as seen in the image below. The arrow is pointing to where I entered the trade (different time scale to the image above).

By the next morning it looked like it might start to trend upwards again (it didn’t start moving slowly upwards for another 4 days or so).
