NEO Price Surge Continues as Value Surpasses $37
It almost feels as if the NEO price is trying to set a new high every single day. Whenever a cryptocurrency goes up in value by a lot over the course of a few days, it will eventually come down again. For NEO, that has not happened just yet, even though that may only be a matter of time. Right now, the NEO price is $37.19, which represents another 12.64% increase over the past 24 hours. Whether or not we will see $50 soon, remains to be seen, though.

Really good information as always. It seems BTC is struggling to gain support for a move higher. The market as a whole has been sluggish and unsure. I was hoping we'd get more of a bump from the Goldman Sachs news, but it seems to have went largely unnoticed.
Thank you for putting in the time to do this. It was very informative and easy to read. I was able to gather much helpful information in a minute or two. That was very valuable to me, I upvoted.

Noted on the low volume of BTC despite its increase in price. I'm still in cautious mode and I believe most traders are too. This is based on the prices of most other coins - unlike BTC, they have not made a notable rebound. With the exception of NEO.
I've been nibbling on a few coins which show some promise. Like Verge and DigiByte. However, I'm also hedging by selling some BTC for USDT (Tether). I'm waiting to see the other coins show more strength first before I change the USDT back to BTC.
Thank you!
It is easy to read!
What programme do you use to make such good infographics?

Low volume does tell me that we should not break out 5k just yet but might see below 3k first on BTC.
@penguinpablo This is off-topic but is there a glitch going on with your steemnow app? I'm getting an error message.
