In my opinion, what you are doing mostly... you are creating very unhealthy situation. Your posts do not have to be bad/wrong to be downvoted. People can flag post simple because of disagreement on rewards.
When people see so much articles about cryptocurrencies on Trending.. this is not something what they want to read all day long - the greatest power of Steem should be diversity.
You produce only posts about crypto, which in the eyes of many, should not be on trending page over and over again.
If you care about Steem, and not only about your pocket, you should embrace this kind of thinking.
I think what you don't realize is the fact anyone who knows how to trade cryptocurrencies can use Steemit to help others and make money too. But they either are not bothering, haven't taken the time to build a following or they are not providing a good value to their followers.
The majority of us that follow @haejin are making money (off steemit). I have seen my crypto portfolio value triple in 2 months and it is 100% because of @haejin.
To make it worse, the original person that started attacking @haejin was showing an image that reported showed @haejin was earnings come ridiculous percentage of the entire reward pool. Once it was found that the image was wrong (not saying it was fake, only that the website it came from has admitted it was wrong) and we started sharing that info, trying to stop all of this, the attacks picked up and became even worse.
If @haejin was writing posts daily about something other than Crypto and the followers were upvoting him for it, would you still be as upset?
Any topic that becomes HOT and a person is providing good solid information for their followers could become a regular in the trending category.
Not a single person has suggested @haejin is using bots to increase his earnings. No one has said he is running multiple accounts transferring his earnings to them so he can feed a team of bots to increase his earnings. In other words, his earnings are coming from the people he is helping.
But how many of the people that are downing him are doing these exact things. Running bots, upvoting themselves and so much more.
Steemit and all the little people are the ones getting hurt here. I lost 4 people that were thinking about joining, all because of this attacking. It is time for it to end.

I would have to agree, If someone does not like what is on the "Trending Channel" CHANGE THE DAMN channel. The content is real, the content is valid and the theory is sound.
Haejin is not a photographer so his post wont be about pictures
He is not an Architect so it wont be about building design. Haejin is not a Doctor or nutritionist so his post wont be about food or health. Haejin is not a programmer so his post won't be about writing code. Haejin is not a poet so don't think your'e going to find him writing stuff that shows up in the Poetry Channel. Haejin is not Caesar The Dog Whisperer so his post are not going to be about pee pad trianing your new puppy.
Haejin only post about what he knows. Elliot Wave Theory. The fact Haejin's post shows up in the Trending channel means one thing. Enough steemians think it is worth upvoting and reading to push it there.
STEEMIT IS BETA. Don't like the way it works take it up with the developers and stop verbally abusing the users and down voting the ones that find value in someone elses post. What steemit is lacking is civility. I have forwarded my notes to @NED.
This post will be down voted in ......5.....4.....3......2..........

I am finding it amazing that a person who spends hours every day helping others and many of his followers are being downvoted and talked about like we are less than garbage, while the people at the top who started this are using bots to try to prevent the people who are being helped from saying anything.
At some point, common sense has to prevail. Self proclaimed whatever police rarely if ever solve any problems, it is almost like their real purpose to to stir up hatred and anger. Is it time to start a system that uses all the good parts of Steemit and throws out the bad? If I knew how, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Well, not sure what good that will do since I have been following him for two months. I have his page on my bookmarks bar, and I look at it about every hour or so every day, waiting for his next words of wisdom. I am a newbie. I fully admit it. In 2 months of following his advice, my portfolio triples, when the 4 months before that it had only gone up about 20%. Are you really trying to convince me I didn't learn anything from him? Maybe your way it better for you. Maybe you had a lot more money to start with. Maybe you are luckier than me. I am sure there are hundreds of other maybes, but if you think you are going to convince me he hasn't helped me my a LOT of money that I could not have done myself, sorry to say you are barking up the wrong tree.
He found a niche, newbies to cryptocurrency, as is filling it better than ANYONE has ever done before. Since you feel your method is better than his, by all means, start writing about it. Start helping others. You and everyone else are free to do exactly the same thing.
But punishing people who are doing a good job and helping thousands of people is ludicrous.
Punishing people, the majority of which are still newbies here, simply because they are using their little pennies to upvote someone that is helping them, is ludicrous.
Whales divvying out their power to numerous bots, so they can upvote themselves or send bot attacks to wipe out earnings is ludicrous.
Don't you realize if YOU become very successful here, you could be the next target?
Most people simply do not want to put in the effort to build the way he has and now they are jealous.

please make sense, this is coming from someone that has been for a year, this is plain abuse, actually refer to my long comments, I'm glad you expressed your opinions, but I highly disagree haejin deserves what he has, it's hype and it's biased and it's not "from the people" if it was he would be making half or even a quarter and that would still be good, this basically scrolls back time to when there was hyper inflation, just for haejin, because 10 posts a day and 50kUSD a day, do you think, just riddle me this

i'm no jelly :D but this isn't right from my perspective, sure he's a unique individual, but there are many technical analysts, and almost none of them are getting 50k a day (currently it's half that for a week) http://steem.supply/@haejin

My opinion on this, a long read
Link to my two best blogs
sorry for linking you to links, I just used the links :D
So yeah, maybe he's honest, doesn't collude, maybe there is no in-crowd splitting the spoils, maybe it's all organic, maybe it's all from people's kind hearts, (15% said the data, that's pretty good yes, great engagement of 25k followers)
I would think the percentage of the listed cases above is probably the same, so it's highly likely there is abuse and highly likely that this isn't fair to you, still compared to financial corruption, this is negligible, but a bad showcase I'd say.

your upvotes made this possible and this content clearly deserves to be trending...... good for everyone....... but whatever, trash will be trash, if you are serious to think one person deserves 1% of the reward pool so that he can have fun on the internet and make a few thousands of dollars in the process, while yeah actually disregard the world at large, think of the little fish here not able to upvote their stuff at 0.01 cents anymore, because bid bots ... long story nevermind, wasting my time typing bullshit, if this was earning me 25K a week :D naah still doing TA isn't worth it :D so yeah he's ok but he doesn't deserve it and he's not really doing good with it, buuut time will tell what will happen and why..

If this posts are on trending is because the people on steemit likes it, that's the way it works, If you don't like it just scroll down. Steemit is full of worthless information and stealed content, I don't like to see that either, but I just scroll down, If @heajin's post gets too many upvotes is because people like me appreciate the good quality of his content. If you want to donwvote someone for bad quality content start for those who stole articles from the web or post porn, or simply replied to post for a follow or an upvote. We are learning with him, if you don't want to learn just srcoll down.

Do not downvote content that expresses a different opinion than your own. Its author has the same right to free speech that you have. Feel free to post your own opinion in a comment instead, or in a separate post.
Do not downvote content simply because you dislike its author. In particular, don't downvote a post just because its author downvoted one of yours. That's childish.

His posts are trending because people ARE interested in the Elliott Wave Principle and are reading his posts. You may not find the topic interesting but clearly other people do. Instead of people trying to knock Haejin down and create an artificial trending page, why don't the people who don't like, or write about cryptocurrencies up their game ie. post more quality content and actively try to grow their followers? Haejin's posts are pure gold to people who are interested in cryptocurrencies, he posts regularly, sometimes a few times a day, and he actively works to grow his following. Why should Haejin have to slow down because other people can't keep up? Surely that's not going to be beneficial to Steemit's long term success?

To me it could be handled way different..it may be too late because of the rude, threatening and malicous behavior I've seen by bernie sanders and many, but all they had to do is maybe have a meeting with the large earners and discussed maybe that their followers support them as well..if this would have happened then bernie and many others would of had 10000+ up voters and supporters granted the content was liked by many...just sad...many people don't understand business and communications..they use threats and fear to fulfill their goals

Are you saying haejin is committing Steemian White Genocide ?
Maybe you don't fully understand what "diversity" means in our days of globalism.
It means anything but diversity.
It means that people vote with their feet, and that God is on the side of the bigger battalions.
You are postulating an alt-right point of view, that cultures should be protected rather than replaced by others - I understand, because it's obviously true - but that is so 20th century.
Millions of people will come to steemit, a majority will be morons, and most will be interested in stuff you're not interested in (and me likely neither...)
It will not always be crypto, it may be... CAT GIFS.
And that may be a shame, but believe me - there's no way to stop it.
Obviously, a public social network is designed for exactly this purpose.
I've seen several comments similar to yours here, and I'm absolutely starting to appreciate the points, even to sympathize - I'm just trying to explain how futile it is to fight this.
Pleading for good will isn't going to help, as good will cannot resist greed.
The only way you could fight this would be by supplying better, or similar crypto content, or later, finestkind cat gifs.
Think.

@noisy - your point is so bizarre. I have never heard of such non sensical rubbish. It is absolutely ridiculous. Each author should specialise in the content they are best at producing E.g. @haejin is incredible at technical analysis, while dollarvigilante produces a geo-politcal backdrop, while other steemians such as @sweetsjj produces food and travel articles.
@haejin posts are trending because they are being upvoted by many individuals. He took time to build the following base and should be rewarded accordingly.

But on the other hand it reached the trending page because people voted for it. I’m just taking the other side here and saying that this is an open platform for whatever content. If he posts about crypto and people upvote him, why is him being on the trending page any different than other people? I think the solution to the problem is posting what content you want. Flags should be used reasonably. Not just to take awards away from someone. What point does that prove?
What solution do you propose to this problem?

LOL, as if he has control of whether or not he hits the Trending page. Your point is utterly ridiculous.
I remember 6 months ago the Trending page was mostly crypto (Kingscrown, Banfield and others) and nobody was complaining then.
If you don’t want him to be on the Trending page it’s an issue with the platform - talk to the developers and get them to change the Trending algo, or better yet, figure out a solution and submit a Github Pull Request. You want to punish him for his success, that is more damaging for newcomers to see than for “Crypto posts to be on the Trending page”.

@haejin, I appreciate all the free advice you've given on Steem - I made an account just to let you know about my appreciation and I've upvoted (with my admittedly small amt of steem) multiple posts of yours.
I have to say though, you're not doing yourself or the platform any favors by making posts with a single .gif that are nothing more than patting yourself on the back. The fact that you're going to end up getting paid possibly hundreds of dollars for this post that has virtually no value just gives more ammo to your critics.
I believe the multiple small posts you make every day are fine because they have actual content, but this one? C'mon man, you're better than this.
