Title: price went up, opportunity to buy cheap is now lost
Post by: BitcoinHodler on March 26, 2017, 01:17:34 PM
as i am writing this price is $984 according to bitfinex and it seems like the opportunity to buy cheap coins with a big discount is now officially over.

finally the sell pressure is not to be seen and it seems to me like FOMO[1] is kicking in. specially since many weak hands sold their coins in the depressing days recently. lets see where this ends up. i hope everyone learns some lessons from this.

There are still good cheap coins like QTUM and Chronobank's TIME. How about Litecoin, Dogecoin and other coins. Not all cheap coins are already pump, just do the "buy low sell high" rule. Invest while coins are not yet fully pumped.

Its called a bounce back. Excactly the same happened on march 19. Well be we saw how that played out. The same happened on march 22. Well that escalated quickly. We dont have any BU solution or other significant positive news yet. Why will we start a uptrend now? Fact is that we dont know shit. But the chart looks like shit, so i dont know if its over yet. It could be the 6th dead catbounce in a row or we could go up a little bit to 1000$. Only time will tell. Dont start with your FOMO bs.

I can't tell wheter its good to predict for the price rise at this time since surely weak hands are not still done dumping their coins since 980+$ is bit alarming to see and theirs history shown that after bitcoins reach for 1200$ it fell down to the price that we can't afford to reach and that scenario truly adds some bad vibes to the holders and surely price wil just playing since the buy and sell for now is well balanced.

you are in a wrong board my friend. this here is bitcoin speculation. go to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=224.0 and we talk there about which is good and before pump.

i am not predicting moon :)
i even say it is too soon to say if price is going to go past $1000 or not but the rise seems to be holding up strongly and weak hands dump on the way down and when price is down and they fear it will continue down meaning the stable low near $900 (aka the depressing days that i mentioned)
and as we speak price is already at $993.

and besides i have seen this pattern too many times to know the chances of rising back up to previous levels are pretty high. don't forget that the drop was because of FUD not a real threat.

No, My guess next bearish will come as soon as possible. too many FUD about the hardfork in this day. and the graph is not stable.  :P Just put my buy order @900.
I just hope if that will get filled.

some people didn't panic when the price dropped with pretty fast and could took advantages from those situations with buy cheap bitcoin and the current price almost hit again $1000 which mean the profit already in the front of them however i think currently still not late to buy and buying small amount of bitcoin untill notice the next situation also good i guess

when a shop decides to do a sale and give some discounts they do it only temporarily. bitcoin did that with a huge amount off for a good couple of days. the discounts were amazing and they were $360 under the price which was a 29% off.
now the holiday bazaar discount thingy is over ;D

p.s. the $1000 can be a little tough though. people are known to quiver with fear around that price and when it is over they again quiver with another type of fear, the fear of being left behind.

Price has started to go higher but still this is the best price to buy bitcoins as it is below $1000 at a moment and it can touch 4 digits in coming days and who knows it can also go above $1200 so in that case it can bring good profits for you so if you have some extra money then you can take risk of buying at the current price.

On the other hand in the 890s is very strong support and this is the area of a lower trendline which belongs again to an upwards channel in which we moved from top to bottom now!
Furthermore SegWit miner signaling is at an ATH, SegWit nodes are at ATH, while BU remains stalled.
I agree that there is still no solution for the conflict yet, but the big FUD, what it still think it is, is over for now.
We are going back to 4 digits pretty soon imo.

It's on a tally and fluctuation. Upon checking a while ago I saw the price went up to $984-$997 then it came back to $964. But this is more realistic now and lifting up our feelings. The possibility of bitcoin's dump is going to end very soon but buying it at lower price is still there, so for those folks out there that sold at low, I feel sorry for you guys.

These are still affordable coins, definite scope for profits even buying coins at this price. Buy before it's too late.

Post by: ImHash on March 26, 2017, 03:57:24 PM
Don't forget when price was at $1200+ people were still buying in hopes of higher prices and they weren't wrong, price should and will rise above $1200 once more and shall stay there and $1200 become the bottom, this is too easy of a manipulation played by BU whales, they knew market will react and some big holders might panic and start to dump carefully, now we're at $1000 and it will rise I promise you that.

You will only get mad and lose all the buy opportunities while waiting it to become cheaper and cheaper. The truth is, it may be become cheap in the future but when that time comes, you'll wait for it to be even cheaper.

Protip for you for free: It's still cheap. It was 1270$ a few weeks ago remember? Do you wanna cry out loud when it reaches that price again and you heff no bitcoins in your wallet? Then shut up and buy bitcoin.

Yes this is still a very good price to buy bitcoins as price will surely go higher in long run so we should grab this opportunity of buying them now as if we compare the price of bitcoin in future then this price will be considered as a low price and which may not see again in future.

I don't know - if some one sold over $1200 - then it is still 20% discount.

Nice to see Bitcoin starting to recover, yesterday the price of BTC is pegged at $940 and today its starting to pick up and touched $1,000 level again a few minutes ago at preev considering that today is still considered a weak end. Lets wait till Tuesday if we can see a continued rally till it recovers to at lsast $1,100 USD.

This chart is such a mess guys. Woow  :o I really wish that we are never going to see such a disturbing month as this one. ETF fake pump trap and dip was just brutal. After that one more recovery trap followed by 2 leggs down. Big whales controlled this month for 100%. Big pump&dump shemes. Bitcoin needs to get more users with smaller amounts of bitcoin to resolve this pump&dump activities. Can someone just  force the whales to spread their stash?  :P

That's actually what I did. I bought back 20% of what I sold above $1200 just under the $900 level yesterday. That's how you make use of every opportunity the market is giving you. I like this form of short term buying and selling as it allows me to increase the number of coins that I have. I started out as solely a holder, but I kept looking at what I was missing when the price was jumping up and down. After all, we all like to increase our holdings. ;)

where you see disturbing imagery i see golden opportunities, each time better than the last one.
when you see a trap i see another chance to buy more cheaper coins. and in the end it means i will end up having more coins in my stash than i was supposed to have.

and this is not pump and dump it is called a shakeout. you frighten the weak hands and take their bitcoin candy from their hands :)

But still a good buy IMHO. Right now its almost $1000. Yesterday was worst though at $930-$940. But again, I still believe that $1000 is a good buy and you will see profit in the next couple of week. I think FUD is still there, but has limit impact now compare to last week that every FUD you hear reflects a price drop on bitcoin market. So for those that don't panic and hold on to their bitcoin, I think they are going to profit for the next couple of weeks or months because I believe that bitcoin price will still rise again.

yes each and every time the btc is getting much better, the price is moving up slowly so i don't think price is too high still it is a buy time not a sell time. just go back few days back what happend, the price went somewhere $1200 which very good but this price if you are saying it is high then you must check with the people who are there on the btc for the long time so that they will help understand what is the right and wrong time to buy/sell.

I think any price below $1000 can be considered good entry point, so looks like today is last day for anyone looking to buy some cheap bitcoins to make quick profit of more than 30% within next few weeks. Easy money is now on bitcoin.

if you are looking at the long term then even prices higher than $1.2K is still cheap. there was a day when people were saying the same thing about $500 and i told them $500+ is cheap and now here we are and in another year i will repeat the same comment but about another number. ::)

i have to admit that the $1000 price has been such a funny number to watch, it is as if traders are playing jump-rope with that number. it seems like there are still so many panic sellers who have not yet learned their lessons.

anyways, i believe with the new announcement from F2Pool about not supporting the fork, that pulls the trigger on most of the FUD and we can finally see the rise happen.

Looks like F2pool don't give his vote for the BU, and Segwit doesn't either. Too many the noobs traders got trapped by the dump. They will never learn from that lesson. Is the F2pool announcement looks good for us?
Or it is just a click bait. But the F2pool ann looks very bullish for the bitcoin market right now, expecting more good news will come asap.

It's the demand that lifts the price back to the $1000 levels. It makes me smile that no matter how many times people dump their coins, that there are enough other people willing to use these lower levels to buy the price back to the $1000s. Other than that, pools will not choose for BU as it's simply not profitable for them. Their only intention is to make profit, and Bitcoin is exactly that what gives them these profits. If they really choose for BU, they basically shoot themselves in the foot.

the timing was very interesting though :)
F2Pool has been silent for a long time about all these things apart from we hearing lots of rumors and then the BU split FUD spreads and they are still silent (possibly wanting price fall) and after the bottom was reached they say "we won't let bitcoin fork" and that is the end of BU! and now price is rising back up again, already $130+ above the bottom.

in all this drama, only those who take advantage and buy cheap coins can win, the rest will just be filled with lots of regrets.

In bitcoin, it will never be over. The price will bounce back and forth until we find the right fix to the problems we are facing. There will be FUD again and the same rule will apply, buy the dip. Trust that everytime it dips it will always bounce back.

One thing I have learned over the years is that you buy on the down turn for most of the more popular Crypto currencies and then sell on the climb before the peak. The safe zone is somewhere in the middle and the trick is to find that spot. The Whales usually only push and pump and dump in small increments, so your timing should work within a small range for BTC and a little bigger range for Alt coins.

This has worked for me and I see this happening now again with DASH and ETH.

what you say works perfectly with altcoins since they are getting pump and dumped. and you may find a way to make it work in day trading bitcoin but generally speaking this is not even close to how you should be treating bitcoin.

the overall trend is rising and it will continue doing so as more people invest in bitcoin. and also as old investors increase their bitcoin wealth by buying bitcoin. and there has never been any reason for anyone to do otherwise.

I am not sure how the coins you mentioned will perform as they are pretty new and i am still not sure what difference do they make in the crypto world,Lite coin is one coin i am expecting to see more action but even in this run we never saw any rapid rise and i have not seen a rally in both doge and lite coin in a very long time and whether i can expect those,i am not sure about that.

those are not good coins, never heard of them those are probably your coins that you are holding, you wanna know about good coins? spreadcoin, lbry, decred, monero, nexus and many others, these are all good coins and they are all pumped, cheap coins that are still not pumped now after the great alt pump that is going these days, are without any doubt bad shit coins that no one care about

Anybody who has invested in alts has made good money in the last month. When a crash happens, only a few alts will survive. Bitcoin will also go to the moon then. We will find out who has been swimming naked.  :)

True, altcoins investors have made a lot of profits, a pity that I lost. Since I'm traveling the internet from here is slow that even the graphics of the polo do not see.

Never say never because when bitcoin was stable nearly 1200$, suddenly due to okcoin and one otherexchanger's (can't remember name) transactions stop caused bitcoin price fall. Also suddenly situation was fixed in 1-2 day and price become stable. Now it falled and minimum price in this week was 898$ but quickly become nearly 1050$. Such situations will be in short future and everything doesn't end with this.

 too sad some folks missed the opportunity thinking that i'll go even more lower. ::)
Better luck next time for those folks that miss again the chance on buying cheaper coins since I already bought some bitcoin on those times where we are on the dip and now im seeing im gaining profits of gradual increase of price on bitcoin. Missing the chances are normal if you are not keen enough to observe the movements.

Volatility will always bring cheap coins again, however I always enjoy talk of "cheap" coins since the "expensive" coins today can easily be the cheap coins of tomorrow regardless of whether its priced at 100, 1000 or 10000. Meaning its hard to define what the current "cheap" is and when its passed.

as i am writing this price is $984 according to bitfinex and it seems like the opportunity to buy cheap coins with a big discount is now officially over.

finally the sell pressure is not to be seen and it seems to me like FOMO[1] is kicking in. specially since many weak hands sold their coins in the depressing days recently. lets see where this ends up. i hope everyone learns some lessons from this.

[1] Fear of Missing Out
I don't think that the price is going to up as we are saying because as the simple increase in the price of the bitcoin is not a big matter .
Here currently the price is flutuation is around 1000$ per BTC which is not more bug rise in the price of bitcoin according to 984$ .
Here I think currently also we have the opportunity to buy bitcoin Because BTC will go more up than what we expect Because the demand of the bitcoin is going increasing more in comparison of the supply .
Here we can include here the topic of BTU that will effect the price of bitcoin more than what we expect .

You made me smile here, you are totally right about this. Price went up and after a while drop back, but in my opinion price is still high. Bottom is higher and higher each time, and I`m aware that coins can cost nothing tomorrow or a little fortune, what is expensive today can be cheap tomorrow, and otherwise, what we see today can be different tomorrow when we wake up, thats why we are risking all the time, if situation is different we would live much calmer then now, and safer probably.

yeah but being cheap or expensive is also a matter of time too. for example right now anything below $1000 line is considered super cheap in my opinion and anything in the range of $1000 to $1100 is cheap coins.

but at the same time price of lets say $1500 for this time is expensive.

i know bitcoin is worth a lot more but it will take time to reach $10000 and prices like that.

Just go to yobit you can what are the current "cheap" coins ATM. To easily define cheap coin or expensive coin. Try using chart price history of it. So that you can easily analyze if that coin is already dump or newly pump. Some newbie traders didn't realize the real essence of the chart. It is meant to answer to your opinion bro.

There will always be another time. It always happens. All it takes is just a new FUD and the price will plummet down again and there is your opening to buy cheap coins. You just have to wait again for it.
With bitcoin mostly it seems to grow in a rotational cycle, so there will always been a chance of buying low as stated in the above quote, but none have the exact time during that we need to wait to buy low. So when price supports we need to make the buy than just missing the right time and thinking​of it when it is over.

what you are explaining mostly sounds like what the day traders should do not the rest of the traders. and that takes a lot out of you, unless you are just gambling you need to put a lot of time and stress on finding these "cycles" and get in in the right time.

and chances like the chance of buying in 3 digits price are always going to be very rare in bitcoin and need a huge FUD like the split FUD fo cause such opportunities of purchace. in other times you buy or you miss out!

This.

We are still awaiting the outcome of the PBOC block on withdrawals from the Chinese exchanges. That was six weeks ago.

We keep hearing stuff about "in person verification" on the Chinese exchanges:

http://bitcoin.xyz/pboc-proposes-person-verification-account-opening-exchanges-withdrawals-still-hold/

Quote
An article in the China Business Journal reportedly claims that the PBOC has sent a 4-page draft proposal to Chinese bitcoin exchanges. The bank is asking them if the requirements outlined in its proposal, including one involving a mandatory in-person verification, are feasible.

An exchange insider, Lu, told the Chinese publication that one of the items listed is the requirement for all new users to go through on-site verification before they can open an account. Bitcoin.com previously reported on the PBOC potentially requiring on-site verification in order to deposit or withdraw 50,000 yuan when using a Chinese bitcoin trading platform, but doing so to open an account was not mentioned.

Lu commented that this requirement is not feasible and does not follow the trends of the internet, citing that even stock market trading accounts allow remote video verification.

The chinese saga isn't over and may yet tank the bitcoin price.

There will always be another opportunity to buy cheap coins for those who have not bought at the dump that happened before prise rose again. It might not be tomorrow or next week but in the future im sure there will be many more opportunities to buy cheaper bitcoin. Even if that was the case, it is nice for those people who bought at the bottom of the dump since they are in profit right now. Too bad I have sold some of my bitcoins early when it got up to 1050$ and now bitcoin is 1097$. Im gonna rebuy again for sure if it goes down to sub 1000$ price again.

It isn't old stuff - it is unresolved stuff.

Suppose they decide not to permit withdrawls after all. What happens to those coins? Do they get auctioned off? Do the exchanges keep them? Do they get suddenly dumped on the western exchanges by shady characters?

As always, if you wait too much then the expensive from today may be the cheap from tomorrow.

If you want to invest long term(years) and don't want to waste hours with daily trading then it is ok to buy at any time and wait, historically prices will recover in the worst case scenario(if you bought in the Gox top bubble), but usually they will keep rising over time

Well you have other coins also u should buy them and wait until it is hike and sell it .

yes if we have money to buy bitcoins then we can buy and we have to buy and do not have to lose the heart from to buy more because we do not have lost the opportunity to buy at lower price the price is still lower if we consider the price of the future when it will reach to at least $2000

Yes, the price is now over 1000$. It was a great opportunity for anyone to buy below 1000$ but now again we are over 1000$. I think bitcoin will go beyond 2000$ this year, so buying at 1000+ is also not bad.

Yes, there are many events around bitcoin ecosystem happening but within bitcoin ecosystem there is a big debate is going on. Until we make a conclusion on scalability issue, I guess bitcoin prices may show more volatility in coming days. But it would be great for active traders, they could make big profits like ~$250 per bitcoin within a week.

Told you many times, buy when there is drama in the air and blood in the streets.
There is no way that bitcoin will be dragged down by petty scaling issues, even if they won't be resolved fast BTC is still best asset to invest in.
Bitcoin will go even higher, bullish trend just started, jump on the bandwagon and buy BTC now.

There are still good cheap coins like QTUM and Chronobank's TIME. How about Litecoin, Dogecoin and other coins. Not all cheap coins are already pump, just do the "buy low sell high" rule. Invest while coins are not yet fully pumped.

... those are the most pumped pieces of shit ever. You can tell which coins are pump and dump shitcoins by the crappy shills that post here on bitcointalk. Buy bitcoins at a decent price and be happy in the future or get greedy hoping to be a whale of a shitcoin and the fact is that there is a certain price they'll get to then the creator will dump their shit all over you.

who cares, the Chinese don't matter as much as they did back in the days. we all know very well that the volume they have been reporting has been very fake and besides all those Chinese that mattered (the whales and good traders) left the exchanges in that initial timeframe where withdrawals were still possible. now they are all doing their trades elsewhere. such as on localbitcoins and wester exchanges.

If you think that the Chinese wont be having any control over the price from on now with Japan adopting bitcoin that is just a belief,with more people and investment coming into bitcoin we are seeing much less volatility and it is not because China is controlling and now they have lost control over the coin. :D If anyone has any monopoly or control over bitcoin they could very well control it a couple of years back and with increase in price it is really difficult to make some major changes.

They do matter because quite a lot of bitcoins are trapped on their exchanges.

They'll have the same effect as when the MtGox coins suddenly come back on the market once the bankruptcy is resolved.

Gambling opportunity? You will see sub-900 coins again this year. Dont you worry.

Market moves in fractals and back in 2013, price averaged between 80 and 130 for most of the year.

I understand desire to pump the price a little bit more, perhaps as high as 1200, but you should be well advised, that whales do not abide by bitcointalk "to da moon" threads. Otherwise, they wouldnt stay whales for long.

I find it funny: last week the price dipped basically to about $900 and no one bought. The only thing people within the community believed was this false idea of a hard fork and, because they believed all the FUD, they too became overly pessimistic about Bitcoin.

Everyone thought it'd be the end of the currency. That dop was the final straw.

Rational people would post saying you'd better buy now - but no one listened. They just bowed down to the crooks at Bitcoin Unlimited.

And what do you know. The price has soared to a staggering $1100. How many people were able to cash in? I know I have.

However, will the people learn their lesson? My guess is no. So when the price falls to $900 again in the next few weeks (volatility allows for it), will you lose your money? It's a new strategy: profit from pessimism.

Yeah I don't think that price will go down now as it has started to go back to its position again and very soon we may see the price of $1200 again so I think this is still a very good price to buy bitcoins in order to make short term profits.

~You will see sub-900 coins again this year. Dont you worry.~

what you don't get is that the dip was because of FUD and market makers wanting to make some big profit both from the bitcoin price drop and also the pumps that altcoin had because of this dip.

and also coming up with another FUD as big as this one to drop the price back to "sub-900" is not easy. you can't come up with random stuff and spread it, it needs to be a good FUD to be effective and they are rare. so if you haven't bought yet, Worry because it is now over unless they come up with another good FUD.

i think we still opportunity to buy cheap as bitcoin price is always fluctuative and always changing from time to time. but if we want to buy, please make sure that our price is really in the bottom of the price so we can buy cheap and if we are too high when we buy, then we can waiting for a while for the up of the price and i am sure that the price will always up for more than yesterday.

At this moment maybe you can't have a right opportunity to buy as bitcoin bounced back to 1200 dollars value and it seems that the price is getting slight stable in some days which makes it more hard to assume that it will go higher . Wait for some positive changes on its price then maybe it will be a sign that it is getting more higher and it would be a good time to buy bitcoin .

I think people had missed the opportunity to buy Bitcoin at 3 digits but the opportunity to buy cheap bitcoin has not been lost.  In my view, Bitcoin is still cheap now, with the upcoming smart contract features, and I am sure scalability will be resolve.  In due time we will see Bitcoin break $2000 to $3000 so definitely buying Bitcoin at $1200 is still cheap comparing to the inevitable future price of Bitcoin.

Why others missed that cheap 3 digits?

It's because they are expecting for price to decrease more since they think those recent FUDS can pull down much the bitcoin price. Imagine from $1,200 it goes back to $800 level so they are sure it will goes down more. I remember speculations that it will goes back to $700 or even $500 and look at today. For those guys who are still waiting, wait for more longer time and just passed those expected profits if they ride today.

Wait forever indeed or hope for another major FUD lol.

I didn't include figures for 2009 and 2010 because there were no exchanges running until late 2010.

We do know that based on 10000btc for a $20 pair of pizzas in May 2010 the value was approximately a fifth of a cent per coin. That represents an increase of 29.8 cents or 14900% in 2010.

Recently the price getting closer to $900 seems to be the lowest after a very long time. The price move was an sudden happening which created a panic among the users rather than a buying mentality. I believe traders and big whales might have bought big. Now everyone feel bad of missingthe chance as we are more than $250 away.

Wait forever indeed or hope for another major FUD lol.

major FUD doesn't grow on the trees :)
the last big FUD that caused a big price drop was the bitfinex hack (assuming you can even call it FUD) and then before that it was around $450ish when Hear FUD came and cause some turbulence.
you see, it is rare opportunity!

At this moment maybe you can't have a right opportunity to buy as bitcoin bounced back to 1200 dollars value and it seems that the price is getting slight stable in some days which makes it more hard to assume that it will go higher . Wait for some positive changes on its price then maybe it will be a sign that it is getting more higher and it would be a good time to buy bitcoin .
I dont think that this moment is good for buying btc, I would stay away for some time, watching the price action and the chart, because 1200$ per one bitcoin is too much if you want to earn on each trade.

As you said, we can see price gettint more and more stable right now, which is a good thing for holders, but not so good for people who doesnt own btc, but want to hop in the trend.

As soon as i would see 1100 upwards bounce and then break of 1300$, i would spend a big lump of money for investing into bitcoins :)

That's not true, In april the price of bitcoin never touch $900. You may need to correcting your word. The FUD already finished and seem the price is back to the above $1200. The whales are taking the opportunity from the panic market.

I may be wrong but people who think and plan like this will never act on it because of a very simple reason, when price is higher than your target (whether it is at $250 and you want $200 or it is $2500 and you want $2400) you say 'it is high and I can't make profit if I invest'.
then when price comes down from that "high" price, you start thinking 'it is going down and is on a down trend so I will stay away' and miss the chance once again.

I am not saying to make irrational decisions without thinking or planning them ahead of time but I say sometimes it is best not to wait around too long and take a leap of faith.

as i am writing this price is $984 according to bitfinex and it seems like the opportunity to buy cheap coins with a big discount is now officially over.

finally the sell pressure is not to be seen and it seems to me like FOMO[1] is kicking in. specially since many weak hands sold their coins in the depressing days recently. lets see where this ends up. i hope everyone learns some lessons from this.

[1] Fear of Missing Out
As I am writing this, the price is $1208 on preev and it seems another good rise again since the last time we reached this point and fall down below $900. We can't predict whether bitcoin will continue to climb up or slowly decline as people who bought bitcoin at $850-$1000 may tempting to sell out to get profits instead waiting for others doing the same thing and we do not.
The rule is so simple : buy at low and sell at high. But I'm sure that bitcoin price will increase more than $1250 or even reach $1300 before significant drop back again.

1 year up, 2 years down, now 2 years up.

Nonsense. The only down year for Bitcoin was 2014.

5 years up, 1 year down, now 3 years up and counting.

Get your facts straight.

Down movement from 1-12-2013 to 20-9-2015. Almost 2 years. Get YOUR facts straight!  ::)

Way to cherrypick a random interval between arbitrary points in 2013 and 2015.  ::)

These are the real facts.

The price is looking strong now even with the uncertain conditions where were are with Japan recently accepting bitcoin as a legal currency and more countries will follow them and now China cannot manipulate the price with their speculation and with bitcoin we will always have an opportunity to enter what ever the price is but always try to enter at a good rate.

Not too late, we will always tell that the price is expensive, I knew a bitcoin bitcoin 1 years ago when the price reached $250 I think was expensive, but after halving day the price was $650 I instead bought 5 btc. I recommend to buy now, hold for 1 year then we can get more 100% profit.

... bitcoins weren't $250 a year ago in any currency. That was two years ago at least. Bitcoins always seem really expensive to me because I was around for those days. Either way I keep getting a little more each day so they're always more exponentially more.

I wouldn't be surprised if the price dropped again temporarily to under $1000. There are fluctuations in price all the time so it wouldn't be that unexpected. There will probably be opportunities to buy again.

The people that missed on the bitcoin boat at early prices are always dreaming about getting in at cheaper prices, they always get good opportunities to buy cheaper but they are too greedy and those guys are the ones that will keep missing the boat until we are $100,000 per coin and beyond as they wait for a perfect price. They are the definition of idiots.

Don't wait too long to buy at lower price as price may not go down now and it will keep on getting higher and higher so if you can hold your coins longer then you can even buy them at current price as it will surely give you profits in long term.
