Crypto4light Indicators Set
I spent a lot of time with backtesting and coding to create this set. 6 indicators which can cut all noise on your charts and bring more light in your trading strategy.🐳 Trade ON indicator

➡️ Buy/Sell The signal appears when you can open a position for buying or selling. Stop Loss can be set according to your risk management. Entry into the position can be at the appearance of the Buy/Sell signal and the closing of the candle. Stop Loss by the body or wick of this candle. Another entry option is to wait for the closing of 40-50% of the body of the candle on which you saw the Buy/Sell signal. Stop Loss by the body or wick of the candle on which you saw the Buy/Sell signal. On example you can see 35% profit on spot, 4H timeframe trade. Sometimes you can see signal just blinking, so wait until signal confirmed or try go to lower timeframe to see confirmation for entry by your risk management and strategy.

➡️ Red or Green triangles
Once a Buy/Sell signal appears and you enter a position, you have several options. It all depends on your trading style and risk management.
The first option - If, for example, you entered on the Buy signal, you can close the purchase at the appearance of the Take Profit signal, or at the appearance of the Sell signal, and open a position in another direction.The second option, after opening a position when triangles appear, this is a signal to close a certain percentage of the position in the plus. With each new triangle, you can close % of your position and move the Stop Loss to breakeven.The third option, after opening a position at the appearance of triangles, closing a full position and looking for a possible option to open a position in the other direction, closing the position after the triangles should take place at the appearance of the main Buy/Sell signal.

➡️ Take Profit

➡️ Two identical signals in a row

🐳 Direction indicator

Circles will appear from above or below. The circles will signal that the main market makers are starting to reduce or gain their position. Big players always need liquidity, so they can build or reduce a position for quite a long time. Round dots are not the main signal for tradingA red or green triangle signals a final change in the local or global trend, depending on your timeframe. Market Makers or players with large positions have exited the market, or conversely gained enough position to change the direction of price movement.The green and red solid lines are the levels where the trend is most likely to end
The green and red dashed lines are the levels where the big players are more likely to start gradually selling off or gaining a position to change the trend before the momentum. In the style settings, you can change the input positions of each of the lines, for yourself or for a specific asset. But the settings are already set in the most optimal way.

🐳 ADZ (Accumulation/Distribution Zones)

The red solid zone shows the zone where the big players will complete the sale of their position.The solid green area shows where the big players will accumulate their positions.The middle blue zone shows where medium and small players start to accumulate or sell off their positions.The yellow zone inside the blue zone shows a trend change and this means that most likely the big players have already gained a position to start selling or gaining it depending on the timeframe in which you are trading.

🐳 Take Profit indicator

The first lower "Buy" line, when the price drops to this line is a good point to enter a position or gradually build a position.The bottom green line "Fundamental price" is the real value of the asset. Sometimes when the media background about the asset is negative and buyers are not interested in the asset, the price can fall below its fundamental price. Then this is the best time to buy the asset.The first upper Take Profit line is a line where you can lock part of the profit or close the entire position. There is a possibility of opening a short position if you trade on the futures market
The very top Exit line is the line where you need to close 100% of the trade position. If you are an investor, you do not need to close the entire position and exit the asset, because all lines are dynamic and change depending on the cycle in which the asset is located.

🐳 Market Mood Indicator

On different timeframes, you can view the mood that is currently present in the market. Trend, euphoria, position selection, or lack of interest.
Red and orange color - fear and overbought in the market 
Green - Accumulation and purchases on the market 
Yellow - Gradual set of position 
White - purchases and lack of interest from small investors 
Blue - Neutral mood in the market

I rename color zones so you can turn on alerts and easier understand notifications. Some colors got 2 alerts because of gradation based on input data, so you can choose any. You should understand on downtrend for example orange zone can be still be a belief sentiment because traders belief price will not drop.
Dark red - Euphoria
Light red - Thrill
Orange (light and dark) - Belief / Strong Belief
Yellow - Optimism
Green - Hope
Light blue - Disbelief
Dark blue - Capitulation
White - Depression
🐳 Money Power Indicator

When the asset reaches one of the zones, it can serve as a good signal to close a part of the position or to start a gradual acquisition of the position according to your trading timeframe.
An almost ideal signal for deciding whether to enter or exit a position would be a divergence on the price chart and the curve on the Money Power indicator. If you are in a long position, for example, and you see that the price on the chart continues to rise, but in the overbought zone, the lines of the Money Power indicator show lower highs, this is a signal that a large player has almost completely sold out his position on this timeframe.
Of course, the price may continue to grow for some time depending on the timeframe, but such indicators usually indicate the outflow of money from large investors and small players will not be able to keep the asset from falling for a long time. Everything is the same but in a different direction in the oversold zone. When a big player gradually gains a position and we see that the money flow curve goes up, and the price on the chart and candles show lower minimums. This will be a great signal to enter a position. You can enter or close a position by analyzing older timeframes W, 3D 1D depending on your trading style.
In new version you also can find a new signals (explanation with default colors, but you can modify it to your theme)
Yellow block - Whales sell or close % of position
Yellow block with arrow down - Whales strong sell
Blue block - Whales buy
Blue block with arrow up - Whales strong buy
Triangle down - Bearish RSI divergency
Triangle Up - Bullish RSI divergency
Red Circle - Bearish MACD divergency
Green Circle - Bullish MACD divergency

I am not a financial advisor. All indicators created with my own personal experience. Do NOT trade or invest based only on indicators. Always do your own research and due diligence before investing.
All indicators can be used on different timeframes. The higher timeframe, the stronger signal. Your entry or exit point should be base on several indicators from the set, your trading strategy and your risk management. Indicators cannot predict or analyze future events in the world, the release of data in economic reports, statements in the media by public figures, so always follow your risk management when you open trades.
☑️ Always follow risk management and this set of indicators will help you. I wish you successful trading.

Take $BTC , for example. When it hit $70k, everyone was thrilled, and a drop to $50k felt like a gift—an opportunity to grab a great asset. Discussions about lower prices? Almost nonexistent! Some folks aimed to buy at $30-40k, but when the price dipped, fear kicked in, and they adjusted their expectations down to $20-25k. When prices finally hit those levels, buying felt scarier than ever because what if it dropped even lower? Eventually, when BTC hovered around $15-17k, some were still waiting for it to hit $8-10k. Even if it reached those numbers, buying would still feel intimidating, and they'd just keep lowering their entry price.
Isn’t it wild? People are more willing to buy at $50k, but the thought of buying at $15-20-25k freaks them out. It’s not just fear, either—some genuinely believe the price will keep falling and jump into short positions, even after a massive 75% drop that lasted over a year. Just look at the charts showing mass liquidations of margin positions; it’s a clear sign of irrationality.
And then there’s the even crazier behavior of selling after a long decline and locking in huge losses. Think that doesn’t happen? Sadly, it’s pretty standard right before a market turnaround, as some traders still think the drop is going to continue.
So, to wrap it up: after a long climb, buying doesn’t seem scary; after a long drop, it does. At the highs, everyone thinks prices will keep climbing, while at the lows, they expect more declines. It boils down to getting used to it, comfort zones, faith, and, of course, greed. Remember, markets are cyclical; nothing goes up or down forever.
Stay out of the Crowd
So why do people miss selling at highs and buying at lows? It often boils down to greed and a lack of understanding. Here are some tips to help you avoid these traps:
Get the Basics Down: Make sure you understand at least the fundamentals of trading—things like technical and fundamental analysis.Put Knowledge into Action: Don’t just learn things; apply them right away! Use unfamiliar charts and grab a notebook to make virtual trades while you're getting the hang of it.Understand the Market: Know how the market works. Everyone has different starting points; a trader with millions can't just jump in or out quickly, so keep that in mind.Stick to Your Plan: If you don’t have a plan or strategy, you’ll likely get swayed by others’ opinions, which can be risky. Develop your own trading strategy and stick to it. Don't rely on signals from others—they’ll cloud your judgment when you need to make decisions.Manage Your Risks: Always keep an eye on your risks.Keep Learning: Make the most of your time and keep educating yourself! The crypto market is always changing, and only crowd psychology stays the same. What worked a year ago might not work today. Opportunities come and go in crypto all the time. So, instead of regretting not buying Bitcoin ten years ago when it shot up 10,000%, remember there are plenty of other crypto assets that have shown similar growth in just one bull cycle

In the world of finance and cryptocurrencies, the legal classification of assets is of great importance. The Howey Test, established by the U.S. Supreme Court in the case of SEC v. W.J. Howey Co. in 1946, has become a significant tool for understanding whether a particular asset qualifies as a security. This test employs specific criteria to determine whether an asset falls under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). In this article, we will explore what the Howey Test is and how the SEC applies it to define cryptocurrencies.
What is the Howey Test?
The Howey Test is a legal test that determines whether an investment is a security. In the Howey case, the court defined an investment as a security if it meets four criteria:
Investment of Money: The investor puts in money or other assets into a business.Common Enterprise: The investment must be part of a common enterprise, where the outcomes depend on the efforts of others.Expectation of Profit: Investors expect to earn profits from their investments.Efforts of Others: The profit or success of the investment relies on the efforts or managerial decisions of other people.
SEC Criteria for Defining Cryptocurrencies
The SEC uses the Howey Test to determine whether a cryptocurrency is a security. Here’s how these criteria apply to cryptocurrencies:
Investment of Money: In most cases, if a person purchases a cryptocurrency, it is considered an investment. Users often invest money in new cryptocurrencies, hoping for an increase in their value.Common Enterprise: Many cryptocurrency projects usually involve an element of a common enterprise, especially if they create ecosystems where users interact with each other. Examples include Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), where investors fund a project in hopes of a profit.Expectation of Profit: Investors often buy cryptocurrencies with the hope of rising value. This reflects the expectation of profit, which is a key criterion of the Howey Test.Efforts of Others: If the profit from a cryptocurrency depends on the efforts of the development team or the project's management, it may also indicate that the cryptocurrency is a security.
Conclusion
The Howey Test remains an important tool for the SEC in determining whether certain cryptocurrencies qualify as securities. As cryptocurrencies continue to evolve, it is essential to monitor changes in regulations and legal standards. Investors should be aware of the risks and opportunities associated with cryptocurrencies, as well as the legal implications that may arise from their investments. $XRP $ALGO $SOL

When it comes to market cycles, one of the lesser-known but remarkably effective frameworks is the Benner Cycle, developed by 19th-century American farmer and entrepreneur Samuel Benner. Though he was neither a professional economist nor a trader, Benner’s work has withstood the test of time, offering valuable insights into how financial markets follow predictable patterns of boom and bust.

Who Was Samuel Benner?
Samuel Benner lived in the 19th century and was an innovative figure in both farming and finance. His career was largely shaped by his ventures into pig farming and various other agricultural activities. Like many entrepreneurs, Benner experienced both prosperity and hardship. In fact, after suffering severe financial losses due to economic downturns and crop failures, Benner set out to understand the root causes behind these recurring crises.
His personal experiences, marked by multiple financial "panics" and recoveries, prompted him to look deeper into the cyclical nature of markets. After burning through capital during these cycles and rebuilding his wealth, Benner decided to research why such patterns existed. His findings eventually culminated in the development of the Benner Cycle.

The Birth of the Benner Cycle
Published in 1875 in his book "Benner’s Prophecies of Future Ups and Downs in Prices", the Benner Cycle outlines a predictive model for market behavior over long periods. He identified a repeating cycle of panics, booms, and recessions in commodity and stock markets, which he believed followed predictable timeframes. Benner observed that specific years were marked by economic highs, while others were prone to depressions or panics.
The cycle is divided into three main parts:
"A" Years – Panic Years: These are the years when economic crashes or market panics occur. Benner predicted these based on past occurrences and identified cyclical patterns that recur every 18–20 years. The cycle suggests that years like 1927, 1945, 1965, 1981, 1999, 2019, 2035, and 2053 are associated with financial panics.
"B" Years – Good Times to Sell: According to Benner, these are the years when markets reach their peak, and it's an optimal time to sell assets before a downturn begins. The cycle identified years like 1926, 1945, 1962, 1980, 2007, 2026, and future years beyond. These are times of high prices, economic prosperity, and inflated valuations in markets.
"C" Years – Good Times to Buy: This is the time to accumulate assets during market lows, such as stocks, real estate, or commodities. These periods are marked by economic contraction and low asset prices, offering ideal buying opportunities. Benner identified years like 1931, 1942, 1958, 1985, 2012, and others as optimal for buying and holding until the market recovers.
Benner’s research focused heavily on agricultural commodities like iron, corn, and hog prices, but over time, traders and economists have adapted his work to apply to broader financial markets, including stocks, bonds, and, more recently, cryptocurrencies.
Relevance of the Benner Cycle in Modern Financial Markets
While some financial cycles are more complex and rooted in macroeconomic theory, the Benner Cycle offers a more simplified approach to understanding market movements. For today’s investors and traders, including those active in the cryptocurrency space, Benner’s insights remain highly relevant.
In markets like cryptocurrency, where emotional volatility often drives massive price swings, the cyclical nature of financial events is clear. Booms and busts, euphoria, and panic are recurrent themes that align well with Benner’s predictions.
For example:
The 2019 market correction in equities and cryptocurrencies aligns with Benner’s panic prediction for that year.
The 2026 bull market prediction fits with the assumption that markets will experience a cyclical uptrend after periods of volatility.
These cycles provide traders with a long-term view of when to enter and exit markets, especially useful for those who prefer a strategic, long-term investment horizon.
Why Crypto Traders Should Care About the Benner Cycle
The cyclical patterns Benner identified can easily be applied to the cryptocurrency market. Bitcoin, for example, has shown similar cyclical behavior with its four-year halving cycle, driving periods of bull runs and corrections. For crypto traders, understanding the emotional extremes of market euphoria and panic—central to Benner's predictions—can be incredibly valuable.
Bull Markets: Crypto traders can use "B" years, which are times of high prices, to strategically exit positions and lock in profits.
Bear Markets: The "C" years in Benner’s cycle are comparable to bear market lows, ideal for accumulating assets like Bitcoin or Ethereum at lower prices.

Conclusion
Samuel Benner's contribution to financial markets serves as a timeless reminder that market cycles are not purely random; they often follow predictable patterns rooted in human behavior and economic factors. His legacy continues to influence traders and investors seeking to understand the timing of market peaks and troughs.
For modern traders—whether dealing in stocks, commodities, or cryptocurrencies—the Benner Cycle provides a roadmap to anticipate market movements and navigate through the ever-shifting financial landscape. By combining the psychological insights from behavioral finance with Benner’s cyclical predictions, traders can develop a robust, strategic approach to their portfolios, taking advantage of both panic-induced lows and euphoric highs.
