What is a Trend?

A trend is a direction that you can decifer in a chart at the stage, when you zoom out, where you can see INFORMATION in the chart just by looking at it. 

Different people see information in different charts at different resolution depending on their level of knowledge and connectedness. 

For instance. If you look at an NSD100 you can see history depicted in the chart .com bubble, recessions pandemic, at that stage most people can see the trend. 

If you are an oil trader or someone who follows say bitcoin very closely then you have more granular knowledge of the environment and can see other events materialise on the charts at closer resolution you can see the trend.

The Dark Knowledge Of The Lightning Dev


To become a truly powerful lightning developer there are cirtain things you must know. Even worse you must know how to do these things and to test them out. The public use of these skills could hurt, maybe even destroy the lightning networks great potential, if it is found to be fragile and humans to be untrustworthy. Sounds like something from a sci fi movie but it might be true. 

On a recent battle with the terminal I have been trying to recover a lightning node which I ran on  using some rare beta software and which I hastily thought i could simply recover with a seed phrase and a channel.db file. Its is not always the case, at the moment none of the funds are recovered. Somewhat luckily there where only small amounts on it and most of the channels are to known counterparties. Now if find my self digging into the darkest corners of the web to find out how to modifying commitment transations so that I can close channels with my self in favour of nodes that still work. Dangerous knowledge indeed, but I think I can call myself a lightning wizard should I pull it off.
