My cause-effect futures & Forex method of analysis "Locked-in Range Analysis" is the method of interpreting the price and volume chart to determine the direction of the prevailing volume of open positions, the imbalance of which will enlighten you to future market behavior. LRA gives us an understanding of the market OI disbalance, so we get the cause-effect direction to open our positions.
My method is not applicable for crypto currency as there is no market-making system that provides all market liquidity.
Each of you knows the principle of pricing crypto currency better than I do, but I will start from the fact that infinitely everyone can not earn and sooner or later there comes a point when the latter have to pay those who were first. And accordingly there is a time and price range, where the last market participants will be blocked. That is what I call "Locked-in Range". Welcome to my Crypto Analysis;)
