Do you agree if Bitcoin finds a meeting point for stable prices in the range of $ 4000 - $ 5000 ...? and I think you might not agree but if you look at a few weeks until now, this is what happens to the price of bitcoin still at $ 4000 maybe this is the best way for bitcoin or bitcoin that is still in transition

It's possible but it's very unlikely. Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency markets are still volatile as heck, and I think it would take a lot of time(probably multiple decades?) to finds it's sort of "stable" price. If you think bitcoin is "stable" at $4000, take note that people also thought bitcoin would be stable at the $5000-$5500 mark. Guess what happened? Volatility kicks in once again as usual.

There's no such thing as bitcoin price stability.Having a price between 4000-5000 USD is NOT price stability.It's decreased volatility.BTC price stability is very temporary and rare,it happens only for a few days or just a few hours.Every market is unstable.The demand and supply always keep re-balancing all the time.

But USD or GPB is more stable than btc. Why? Because its market is bigger (volume and marketcap). In my opinion bitcoin price would be more stable at 100k-1 mil$ price. It will have much bigger marketcap (it would be harded to push price) and it will have institutional investors on it.

Now at 4k $ price whole btc has 70 bil marketcap - there are people reach enough to buy all btc at this price. Thats why they can push price in any direction causing fud.

Um, yeah.  Bitcoin isn't going to remain stable for long, especially when these new futures/options markets go into effect like I've been reading about (if they haven't already).  More ability to trade + the ability of large institutional investors to use leverage = more price volatility.  That's my guess anyway.

Plus bitcoin is still taking the severe hit that I figured it would after reaching its ATH last year, though I didn't think it would fall this low.  On the other hand, if you're the type of person who actually uses bitcoin to buy things, price stability isn't a negative.  That means you can defer purchases and hold onto your bitcoin for a while without having to worry that its purchasing power is going to decrease--though you'll miss out on any gains in purchasing power if bitcoin increases, too.

I've said it a million times:  I'm not a trader of bitcoin, so I'm not hoping bitcoin stays volatile.  That's how most traders make their money, i.e., through serious price swings.  It's not going to affect my balance sheet at all, but part of what makes bitcoin so appealing to own and to follow is the craziness of the market.  Thus I wouldn't mind it at all if we get either a crazy recovery or another serious drop.  I'm hoping for the former but I would not rule out the latter.

If you look at the charts more deeply, the price stabilized at $ 6000 for a longer period of time. In fact, the price did not find stability at a certain point at $ 4000.
What is going is trying to find bottoms out of the stability point, which will probably be at $ 5000 but I think we'll go back to $ 6,000 before the end of this year.
These speculations and manipulation of prices will not last long.
What worries me is the price of Bitcoin SV, as it seems to be behaving differently to the whole market, indicating a price manipulation.

I heard some rumors that currently bitcoin is striving to provide trust in ETF and BAKKT, but the hard drive on BCH has given a serious price reduction to crypto, even though as a trader I prefer fast price fluctuations to provide better profits.

No one wants that to happen because they want to get a lot of profit from price action of Bitcoin to the highest. Bitcoin is currently being used for that kind of things.

You might got a point about the stability of Bitcoin price. But when you look at it and base it in the law of supply and demand, the more people invest in bitcoin, the higher the price it would get. Plus given the limited supply of bitcoin, it would be impossible to have a stable price of it.

Your thoughts can still be denied, the price situation in a market cannot be stable. however, as we all know, BTC was still at the price of 8,000 USD people said the price was stable, but what happened, the price still dropped

I don't see Bitcoin meeting a point of stable price specially when it drop to mid $3K, reason being is that the price is already too low and speculators are going to squeeze and make some money out of the volatility we have seen this month alone. We may even hit another bottom at the end of the year because I believed we haven't hit it yet. But this will be the final bottom and we're going to see bitcoin leg up after that.

Or even predicting that the price won't go below $10K after reaching a new all time high? So everything is really possible and because of the obviously volatility, Bitcoin price will not be stable no matter how we see it. And it ever it stabilises, it will be boring isn't it? We need this kind of price swing to make the market exciting again and of course to make profits out of its price not stable in the long run.

What do you think makes bitcoin very profitable for day traders? Where else can you buy something at $3700 on Monday and sell it at $4300 on Wednesday making a massive 600 profit within 3 days
It's the volatility that's the best thing to happen to bitcoin trading, not the stability.I don't understand why you would say stability is the best way for bitcoin. Do you want stability? Try forex trading for about a month and you will change this attitude as soon as possible.


In my opinion, the higher the price of BTC, the higher the volatility... Forget about marketcap, Bitcoin at 100K each coin? we shall see the mother of all volatilities. Imagine 20K swings maybe from 100K to 80K within 48 hours or less

I think nope it's very impossible bitcoin price stay at 4000$ to 5000$ range because as volatile currency no one can control their value it's either continue to dumped or it might become gives another history of bull run on ine can tell about digital currency where to go the price.

Technical analyzation especially charting might not worked right now, much especially during the recent few days.

Let those "issues" calm down a bit. Any speculations wherein bearish or bullish have a possibility to happened anytime even as we speaks.

Right now, calm down a bit and monitor the situation. It's not easy to say that we might see below $3,000 or $5,000 tomorrow.

And if you look back a few months before then, (14th Nov) the price of Bitcoin was stabilizing around the $6100 - $6300 range.
That's the unpredictability of the market. The market reacts to a lot of factors, Big news, panic sales or massive purchases, price manipulations etc.

It would be a couple of years, corrections and regulations for Bitcoin to consolidate and have an actual value.

at this point i don't really expect much of a stability for bitcoin price since we are in a big dip because of a big dump that has happened for no logical reason and we first need to see the price recover back up to normal levels possibly above $6k again before we can see stability.
not to mention that bitcoin is not known to be stable for long. in the past it has been stable a couple of times like during the $200 range but these cases are not common.

bitcoin does have an actual value it is just that this value is mostly measured with the price and the price is decided on exchanges which happen to be unregulated and small. and that means price can be manipulated by someone with a little bit more than average amount of money and willingness to manipulate it and the experience to do so.

Agree, but i hope bitcoin will be unstable in the meaning of rising price.

There would never be a stabilization because money moves, Yes bitcoin stayed for long time on $4000 to $5000 range but its never enough to say that it would be stable it just became less volatile at that time. Let us be knowledgeable about the terms because there will never be a stabilization in here, i guess it would be better if we use 'less volatile' to avoid misconception.

To some extent its impossible to draw a conclusion is this is the most stable state of bitcoin. Cryptocurrency as a whole is still very volatile, in the next couple of weeks we will see if the bitcoin can hold on to this price for long

Agree , As long as bitcoin's margin markets are everywhere , it would be unlikely to see bitcoin stable around 4k _ 5k , Yet I would be happy to see bitcoin more stable and less volatile but whales and sharks won't stay silence , Margin traders affect on markets and if bitcoin goes to Nazdaq market we would see bigger players in the market , I think as bitcoin becomes more decentralize it becomes more stable .

the stability window sure is quite a huge range

Stability?

That thing wont really fit here on crypto world.We might see accumulation or nearly stability movement of a certain coin of bitcoin itself but it doesn't mean
that it would really placed himself into that range for a long time. Movement would always matter on how crypto people would adopt or buy out crypto basing
into their interest so a slight bulk purchase can already give significant effect and we might see some no movement as of now then it just simply means that
there are no active market interactions.

This is not a stability but more of a support level. BTC is digging a base here for the future once he was raped by the profits of whales and successful traders. Then the cycyle continues.

For now the normal price supposed to be around those number, but we can't say that the price will keep on stable at that range, for now people still not dare to put a lot of money in bitcoin, when something good happened to bitcoin like mass adoption or more countries accepting bitcoin then the price will go up again, I do hope that bitcoin price wont stay too long at 4k or 5k because I believe bitcoin is more valuable than that

It looks like as of lately, this is very critical because on how the price move. As you have noticed we went as low as $3200-$3500 the suddenly jumped to $4300 which means that buyers and sellers are very active and are trying to test each other, we might see the price being stable for sometime but I'm sure its just a matter of days because and whoever won the battle will dictate the outcome: whether we are in the of the late bear cycle and start a good bounce to $6000 at the end of the year or will the cycle continue and see the price in the $4000 range before the end of the year.

Last time we all thought about a stability was between 6 thousand dollars and 7 thousand dollars. You can see what happened to that. As soon as people start to think that market is going stagnant, bitcoin price does something we can't imagine. I hope this time it will be higher because if it goes anything lower like it did last time we are really screwed.

If the market drops like 20% once again we can't really afford it. Hence never believe that bitcoin or generally crypto prices will be stagnant for a long time because even if it stays like that for 5-6 months in a row, it will move to a direction very quickly. Last time it went from 6.5 thousands to 5.4 thousands in HALF HOUR, which was record breaking loss at a record breaking time. Hence, always be prepared for something like that.

I see the stable movement of crypto, especially bitcoin, in the price range of $ 4000 and I think there is something they are waiting for to increase prices, whether the certainty of BAKKT ETFs and more on December 12, 2018. I hope Crypto will provide the best price at the end of 2018

I think, your prediction is almost correct, but in fact, the price of bitcoin is very unstable, don't give up in Crypto trading and continue to make predictions to strengthen your predictions and make you succeed,

With this downturn of the market dragging down the price of the market, I am concerned about the strong sell-offs of those who have lost confidence in the market. Actually, at the present time, we can not determine where the bottom of the Bit is with the psychology of players losing day by day. Trading volume is so small that the trading floors are more and more. I still believe in the future of the cryptocurrency market so I choose Bitcoin for 2k5.

It is still too early for bitcoin to became stable in price.  It will take ten to twenty years for us to see the kind of stability we need.  Cryptocurrencies market need more institutional trading in other for it to be worthwhile and become stable. 
Currently,  bitcoin has fall below $4000 and it is currently at $3470 and speculators are saying bitcoin is heading toward $3000 before we can see bance back again. How is the prediction correct when bitcoin is currently around $3470? The reality is that bitcoin is down in price today and like it has been happening it can be up tomorrow. 

I am sure there will be no such thing, there are always people who want to get bitcoin at the lowest possible price with the hope of getting lower, then the income level will be higher. And the seller always has a sense of boredom where he may have time to need money and feel good to sell his assets

Bitcoin is not holding on to any price for now, it's actually plummeting to rock bottom,the very reason why I doubt volatility can take effect in this network
We thought during the 4k period that the bitcoin was actually finding a sort of stable/stagnant price but take a good look at what happened..

While some need volatility,others don't and it's all based on our use case of the system,whichever way I'll love to see a steady recovery of the bitcoin,this present price indicates only the worst

What i see is bitcoin will have a strong base on $2000 and from that it will start gaining.This is my analyses and the current prices are $3400 and till late December we will get to see this downfall.

You're entitled to your own analysis anyway. I think 2k will be a little bit too crucial for miners that may just move to another alt. 3k would probably be sustained until we get a decent push. But as what we all say, who knows how it's going to play out.

There hasn't been any stable movement in cryptocurrency but the market is dipping everyday and there hasn't be found any support zone for Bitcoin during this bear market. Currently bitcoin is at the verge of dipping down to $3,000, which many expert has speculated that after bitcoin hit $3,000 it will bounce back to what had around 2017.

There are so many possibilities that can occur, we cannot predict the market situation properly. There will always be significant changes and sometimes these changes are very unexpected. Many miracles occur and we only need to be able to maximize every situation that exists. In essence, do not ever lose confidence, because by believing in Bitcoin, we can cause a good positive change in the direction of the price of Bitcoin.

There have been times and will be more in the future where bitcoins price will
be stable but they are and will not be permanent. As long as bitcoin is tradable
and is used as a speculatory tool there will be volatility. We have already come
to realise this as the norm.

The last multiple times the shorts looked this much, both recouped about half of the fall previously. Which returns us at about 4.9k tops previously we go down once more. Accepting the cycle rehashes. Clearly this won't occur in a couple of days.

Yeah can't be determined yet since we're too close to the holidays. We could be staying under 4k until the year ends where real movement may commence. One thing bugging me is that we were stable around the 6k range for more than a month and the next movement was a steep decline.

I think the BTC price has long moved away from the sweet spot of 4-5k if anything its stability will be roughly around 3,5k. This is what I think given the market situation.

This is not a meeting point but a perceivable level of good price acceptance by many or what you call support level. It can be true to many but it can't be true to all so if a certain few that has more than enough monetary power than those many, it can really outlast even the mightiest many.

when talking about price stability in my opinion it is difficult to predict, because the price of the coin can go up and can go down anytime we don't know. sometimes it can be stable but only temporarily and will certainly change again, very confusing.

yeah, you're right, for now the price of bitcoin is not stable, I see the price of bitcoin is $ 3500- $ 4000 +, this year is quite sad but I think there will still be a beautiful day tomorrow, yeah tomorrow the green candle will be in crypto trading.

Prices can move within a certain range over a relatively long period of time. But that doesn't mean that the price of bitcoin will forever be within that range. One day the price will definitely leave these numbers. Price stability is something that will be hard to happen in decentralized things where no one can control it.

Since Crypto is one of the most volatile assets ever, I don't think you will see anything "stable" for a long long time.

Being decentralized is not the core reason why bitcoin is not having stable prices. Being volatile maybe due to decentralized system but bitcoin is having fluctuating prices as it is still in its early days and yet valued to its maximum level but that will take more time as no one could predict what will be the demand when all the bitcoin will be mined out. Bitcoin was designed to have fluctuating prices and definitely not to have a stable price. This is because only fluctuating prices will be attracting more new people to get into adopt it. Yes, bitcoin needs lots of new adopters so that it will hit mainstream.

Yes, it may take a century of time to have stable prices for bitcoin. I'm not talking about for all cryptos in general but it is true with respect to bitcoin as it is having limited and predetermined supply but no one could predict the level of demands of future. Hence, we cannot expect a stable price in any near future.

I say the stability is between $2-3k until 2020. Until new money or the money before has come to crypto again, the price will never rise as what we've seen before. We just need to be patient.

We can't say that price has a stability, we can have some period of the price being in some range, but this can't be stable in long time, at least not this time, maybe we can have a stability but over years, in 5 or 10 years.

I don't think decentralised crypto could have a price stability, but if the transaction supply and demand is balance of the transaction volume is not too much then the volatility won't be too big, for this month the price should move in around 3000 - 4000,and that price shouldn't be too far in 2019

We cant assume that in crypto we can have a stable price specially on bitcoin. It can fluctuate fast as you expected. Crypto has a special personality such as it is very volatile. Me myself before was shocked because of its volatility (Im a stock trader before).

The bitcoin will never settle for any price range for too long so we can't make any predictions based on the current price range since it is just happening for the last few months and the conditions can change at any time when the market changes so make the investment as long term hold to have safer capital if you just do trading too often means you will going to lose more money when the price dumps.

Crypto prices are anything but stable. They were stable most of this year but people keep seeing the dropping prices, the problem is when its not stable its chaotic. Prices stay the same for a while, stays stays stays than BAM! it just drops like crazy one day and you lose half of your investment in half an hour.

Its not common of course and it rarely happens, probably just twice over the course of bitcoins life and it has always been going higher when you look at it on a long term but volatility is a part of bitcoins character now and should not be run away from. We should embrace the swings and react to them like they are normal part of life. I know you don't see 50% decrease, 35% increase daily on any other investment but to be honest bitcoin is not like any other investments we do neither.

It showed some stability at that price but then it fell to the lower of 3000$ and I dont think bitcoin is going to be stable at a price for a longer time. The trading keeps happening and people buy and sell at support and resistance points so we cannot expect the price of bitcoin to be stable especially with such low market cap.

Bitcoin will never stable because it is always volatile.
Remember that bitcoin value depend on supply & demand , unlike gold or other stock value, they are own by many government and company etc.
If you want to make quick profit, crypto is the man but remember the risk !

Marketcap of bitcoin is 67 billion dollars and I do not think it is at lower side for manipulation. I mean its marketcap is not a criteria for being volatile. Like any commodity, bitcoin's price level also being determined by supply and demand. Even we have calculated supply, the demand is at lower side to match the supply and already existing coins. When people dump their bitcoins, if there are more buyers then we will have rising markets still there will be less possibilities for stable prices.

Only after bitcoin will become as a mainstream payment system and people buy and use bitcoins for transacting like fiats, we may have stable prices for bitcoins.

Most people thought bitcoin had strong support at 6k and it couldn't possibly dip below that level but look what happened.  All it takes is a few early adopters to come along and decide to dump their bags on the market.  This is why people are still worried about the Mt. Gox coins which will eventually be refunded to people that have been waiting years to sell.

If we talk about the market cap of bitcoin, it is very stable. But, in terms of price value, it's not. Actually, no cryptocurrency is stable and will be stable. Prices of the digital assets including bitcoin are based on speculations. Also, the lack of regulations around bitcoin is another reason wherein anybody who has bitcoin can sell, hold, and move bitcoin.

A stable price isnt the forte of cryptocurrency. If an investment is stagnant and doesnt change from time to time not even going up or going down, this means that the market isnt healthy. Although the price now goes down consecutively, we can tell that it is a sign of a healthy market and we all know that it will increase again in time.

Thats right, we can't generate profit if it goes like that(no movement).  Such fluctuations will give us money and that is we lookin for. 
The moving of prices means that there is an event happen inside either buying or selling. It also means that the market is still alive.

Not healthy or not attractive? I think the main point for people is the latter.

People here have always something to complain about, and so does the mainstream media. If Bitcoin is volatile, it can't be a currency, and if there is stability (which is perfect for a currency), it's yet again not good enough. It's safe to say that those who are continuously complaining are here just for the profits, because I have never been bothered by either volatility or stability.

And what makes a market not healthy if it doesn't fluctuate? I think stability on its own is pretty neat, because it's stimulating real world usage to pick up and thus have coins circulate instead of being dumped directly for fiat. On top of that, most traders don't even need much volatility to trade with. Traders have been dealing with assets that fluctuate way less than Bitcoin in its most stable periods, and they still book the gains they look for.

Leverage is the name of the game. People think 100x leverage on Bitmex is wild, but certain legacy brokers offer 300x leverage counts. :D

Prices for drop are easier than when to go up, this is what has become a problem for crypto, people hope that prices will go up but if everything becomes HOLDER, I don't think that is a good thing either. Because usually when trading volume starts to disappear people easily panic and price stability is disrupted

is it possible that now is the right price for the price of bitcoin ,,,, which tends to be stable in the range of 3000 - 4000 $ I think almost some people feel disappointed about this, but maybe this is a quiet time for bitcoin, and I don't think this is too bad for the price of bitcoin

The price stability is very important for anything because Bitcoin had food stability but in sometimes it will be the back fare for that so table currency will always win the race and it need some improvement also if it happens become will be a great economic changing equipment for our future.

Yes.The more we see movements of bitcoin price,the more we should continue our investments in bitcoin because it's just a healthy proof that there are still investors who never stop investing in it.The market may not be in a good condition but for sure this will not lasts for such a long time.This will bound to change in just a couple of months.

This is the worst in my opinion and there will be no calm for those who hold it. We know before the decline in the price of bitcoin tends to stay in the range of $6k and this is like continuing in the range of $3k, if events like yesterday repeat again, then we will see the value of bitcoin that continues to disappear.

Stable price is only good for the crypto users who use  Bitcoin for direct spending and payments but for those who considered Bitcoin as good for investments then they will always look for more that Bitcoin will become all time high again.

I believe, but isn't it the purpose why bitcoin was created?
Being an investment is just a second consideration because without much people using the system, the adoption will not grow and that would also reflect on the value of bitcoin.


More demand means more valuable, that's what I'm seeing.

If it is seen that the price of bitcoin does not fluctuate so much, I just follow how the market will be as long as bitcoin is feasible so I am not so concerned about the stability and fluctuations of cryptocurrency, and more focused on generating money in crypto.

Stability in the price of bitcoin is elusive at this point in time, the bear market has to end before we can say for sure the type of market condition that will trigger stability of bitcoin prices with a certain amount of time.  The best strategy here for Bitcoin is to hold or better still,  buy downward!

If it is called stable, I do not agree, but if the price is estimated at around $ 4000 - $ 5000, I agree because it is in fact what is happening now.
