$Bitcoin (BTC.CC)$ $Ethereum (ETH.CC)$ $Dogecoin (DOGE.CC)$ $Binance Coin (BNB.CC)$ Cryptocurrencies were peerless conduits of greed and fear in 2021, alternately minting and wiping out fortunes as they swung wildly while adding some $1.5 trillion in overall market value along the way.
Bitcoin, up more than 60% this year, absorbed much of the attention but had to share more of the limelight with the likes of Ether and Binance Coin as well as meme tokens such as Dogecoin and Shiba Inu.
In fact, Bitcoin’s share of the crypto market shrank dramatically over 2021 as other tokens rocketed, a sign of how investor interest in digital assets broadened out despite — or perhaps because of — enormous volatility.
The decline in Bitcoin’s dominance will likely continue next year “given the explosion of assets in the crypto space and the various use cases,” said Vijay Ayyar, head of Asia Pacific with crypto exchange Luno in Singapore.
The overall market value of cryptocurrencies climbed by about $1.5 trillion in 2021 to some $2.3 trillion as of Dec. 17, according to tracker CoinGecko, which counts almost 12,000 tokens.
Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, began the year with a 70% share of the market. That has fallen to less than 40%, in part as Ether’s popularity increased. But money has flowed into other tokens too, and for some that trend could be a sign of potentially destabilizing speculative froth.

@AhTian Why, What & How to Short-Term Trade!
For this post, let's take short-term trading as intra-day trading that last from seconds to minutues. It's commonly termed as scalp, intrad-day swing trading. I'll use scalp here.
@BT11 Day/Swing trader
Keep your emotions away from the charts. My personal technical analysis of price action in charts relies on simply RSI (14 length) and chart patterns. Identifying the right patterns and how to utilise a trading strategy with it is a crucial complimentary tool I use for entry/exit.
@Business Insider DCA is the best strategy!
Bought $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ back in 2017 for about 300$ pre split. Sold it in 2018 for a tiny profit and to decrease my cost basis. They were swinging between 200-300 all the time.
@Dadacai Some Pointers for Day Trading
I will give a brief overview of the VWAP indicator which is often used by day traders. Trade when the mind is clear and alert. Play small. Plan your entry and exit. A good knowledge of technical indicators is required.
@GT1982 How Did I Started Short Term Trading
I started off as a short term trader before finding my style as a long term investor. No personal feelings should be involved in trading. Only fundamentals, technicals and numbers should be the deciding factors.
@IcySilver Swing trade like a Pro...
Swing trading is most useful when the market condition is volatile, without long clear trend. Currently the market does seem so. Thus, it may be a good time to look more into swing trading, or quick-entry-quick-exit trades.
@Jin1978 Some personal tips on short-term trading
If u cannot stomach the risk (10% to 30% movement usually), stay away from risky trades. Set a cut-loss price. Remember to withdraw your profits every now and then! Don’t keep pumping all your profits for the next trade!
@kaito666 My short term stock trading step
Read the news, consider different scenarios, weigh up the odds and technical analysis. In this event that any of the above scenarios do materialise, go straight to your price charts and use technical analysis to find entry and exit points for the long or short trade you have chosen.
@Moo Top I am a part-time Day Trader
My favourite technical setup is VWAP + 9EMA and 20EMA, looking at 1min and 5min candle stick. Do your own due diligence (DYODD) on the stocks that you want to day trade with.
@102637896 My Views on Short Term Trading
Apart from reading technical indicators and charts, I think the following are important that I learnt: Position sizing. Establish entrance, stop loss and target price before trade. Mental Strength.

We should keep a clear mind and stay alert to the markets where milliseconds count. Please be aware that different time zones could impact the timings of your investment. It's crucial to set profit targets and stop-loss when entering a trade. Besides, technical indicators could help you identify the signals in the market and thus improve the odds of winning. Discipline and a solid trading plan could help you advance in short-term investing. As mooers' say, there is no best strategy. Just stick with the one that you can reap profit from it. Remember, what matters the most is the one that suits you the best.

$General Motors (GM.US)$ plans to begin delivering a roughly $113,000 special “Edition 1” version of the vehicle by mid-December.
President Joe Biden also made several supportive comments promoting the vehicle during a speech at the facility, including calling it “one hell of a vehicle.”
Another powerful player, $Tesla (TSLA.US)$ unveiled it's "Cybertruck" almost two years ago to the day. The electric pickup truck was supposed to be in production already, but the automaker delayed the program as it focused on growing Model Y production.
Fans are still very excited since it looks like a vehicle from the future.
The last one is the youngest rising star $Rivian Automotive (RIVN.US)$ . It started production of its R1T electric pickup truck on Sep.14. Tried to make Rivian the first to bring an electric pickup to the market, ahead of Tesla, General Motors and others. However, their product quality is now under doubt since the battery problem.
So which one would be your choice? Would you tell me about your reason?

Asia stocks set for mixed open amid jump in dollar
Asian stocks looked set for a mixed open Thursday after the latest Federal Reserve minutes flagged the risk of a faster reduction in stimulus. The dollar jumped and the Treasury yield curve flattened.
Australian shares were steady, while equity futures for Japan rose and Hong Kong's fell. U.S. contracts fluctuated after the $S&P 500 Index (.SPX.US)$ and tech-heavy $NASDAQ 100 Index (.NDX.US)$ edged up on below average trading volumes ahead of the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday. Data showed U.S. consumers kept spending despite skyrocketing inflation, pointing to a year-end growth spurt.
Oil edges lower after biggest U.S. supply build in three weeks
Oil edged slightly lower a day after U.S. stockpiles rose and the day after the announcement of a coordinated release crude from strategic reserves.
Futures in New York closed down 0.1%. A government report showed U.S. stockpiles increased 1.02 million barrels last week. The White House announced on Tuesday a release of 50 million barrels from its reserves in coordination with the U.S., China, Japan, India, the U.K., and South Korea.
Adidas Originals says it has partnered with Coinbase
$ADIDAS AG (ADDDF.US)$ Originals, the clothing line primarily focused on sneakers, tweeted out a cryptic announcement, saying it had partnered with $Coinbase (COIN.US)$, calling it "probably nothing."
Coinbase replied with a handshake emoji.
From Best Buy to Gap, retail carnage erases $10 billion of market value
Disappointing earnings reports have cost prominent U.S. retailers about $10.7 billion in market value this week, with stalwarts such as $Nordstrom (JWN.US)$ and $Gap Inc (GPS.US)$ posting their worst one-day plunges on record.
Investors shaved about $1.5 billion off Nordstrom on Wednesday, with the stock closing down 29%. The cut for Gap was even deeper at about $2.1 billion, while two days of carnage overtook $Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS.US)$ (down about $1.4 billion) and $Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF.US)$ ($460 million).
Elon Musk sold another $1 billion in Tesla shares on Tuesday
$Tesla (TSLA.US)$ CEO Elon Musk's trust sold about $1.05 billion in stock on Tuesday evening according to financial filings posted this week. It marks a total of $9.85 billion in stock offloaded in the past two weeks.
Tesla shares fell 15.4% the week ended Nov. 12, marking the worst week for Tesla stock in 20 months after Musk began selling shares. Shares of Tesla were up about 1% on Wednesday afternoon.
Trump hotels, other businesses reportedly subpoenaed, but executive Matthew Calamari expected to avoid charges
New York prosecutors issued new subpoenas for records on former President Donald Trump's properties as part of an ongoing criminal investigation of his business, a new report said. Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr.'s prosecutors also recently told top Trump Organization executive Matthew Calamari that they did not plan to indict him.
The developments come as Trump, the de facto leader of the Republican Party despite losing the 2020 election to President Joe Biden, signals he could run for president again in three years.
Tesla bull Cathie Wood says Apple should've bought the EV pioneer, but 'we're happy they didn't'
$ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK.US)$'s Cathie Wood told CNBC on Wednesday that $Apple (AAPL.US)$ could have owned the driverless vehicle market by purchasing Tesla. "We're happy they didn't," said Wood, a longtime Tesla uber-bull and believer in CEO Elon Musk. Wood also said on CNBC she sees "nothing wrong" with Musk selling stock and paying billions of dollars in tax bills related to option grants.
Love affair with riskiest assets turns turbulent on Fed fears
A selloff in hyper-expensive tech stocks. Travails in crypto land. Snowballing weakness in small caps. And now a runup in the cost of equity insurance.
Despite a solid markets close on Wednesday, there were other signs this week that showed this year's ardor for risky assets has hit a rough patch. The latest exhibit is the Cboe Volatility Index, which has gained 2 points since Monday of last week, a period in which the S&P 500 is little changed. Demand for protective options is suddenly growing as previously torrid corners of the equity market cool off.
