Hmmm never mental again that’s awesome
If ever again crossing Belgium… never wait reaching out to me, I’m always up for a glass of wine, White Russian, fine foods or a simple burger….

Not likely I will ever be traveling again to that continent due to COVID-19 measures.

I've resigned myself to a life living on this half of the hellscape we call Earth.

Very unlikely I will ever enter Canada again, as well.

Mexico, or South America by the looks of it, appear to be the limits imposed on us, presently.

Very sad about that.

I personally could give a shit if I ever travel outside of the U.S. ever again.

Already did that 25 years ago, and the europeans I encountered treated me like crap everywhere I went (e.g., got spit at once in broad daylight just for being an American, got scammed, got taken advantage of due to language barriers, etc.). I can only imagine that it is way worse today for americans traveling abroad.

Plus there are so many fantastic sites, monuments, and events to see right in the USA. Most Americans don't take enough advantage of it all.

Really? Where have you been in Germany?
Most people i know there are nice. Fucktards are everywhere, though...

Well, back on topic:
I'm not esoteric enough to think that vaccines are to be used for mind control.
BUT i think it's OK to ask for proof that this is not the case. Especially if you encounter findings like Spartacus...
What bothers me is, the ones that could debunk these myths by proving the impossibility of nano particles mixed into vaccines, the impossibility to perforate blood-brain-barrier with the purpose of inserting said particles which react to some sort of remote control technology, and so on, don't give a fuck.
Yes, they can put Dr. Who(ever) in front of some MSM cameras denying it, but that's not a proof at all.

Instead they tell pro-vaxxers (who get/got vaxxed anyway) stories about herd immunity, in the face of a mutating novel coronavirus, decreasing antibody count, while simultaneously ignoring the fact that viruses are spread mainly through tissues of the upper respiratory tract, where no antibodies are created by intramuscular vaccine shots? Yes, they keep down hospitalization, death rate and some covid aftermaths, at the price of periodic vaccination, but the mutating and spreading will most likely never stop.
So it's measures forever, then?

Who wouldn't get suspicious? I mean mainly people with self consciousness. We all already know what the sheeple peeple do, right?

But then, i catch myself thinking:
OK, gov... are you able to tune my mind's performance with that shit? Well, i may be in for a couple of shots then...  Cheesy

Part of me is fucking concerned if I’m honest.

My gut is telling me S2F falls apart soon. In shambles and an afterthought by March 2022.

Hope I'm wrong, but I think we should expect a slower rise than some are anticipating.

seconded.
But by all means, i don't follow the "fool of the bulls" argument from Torque. Bulls know how capitulation looks like, wait for it then and get in (around the infamous "mindrust point").

Even though I can recognize some value in a buying a dip approach, many of us need to be careful with any such approach that is going to hold large quantities of our fiat waiting for dips that do not end up happening.

Of course, we are going to feel smart as fuck if we end up buying upon a mindrust kind of moment.. but those kinds of moments are definitely difficult to identify and/or prepare for.

I am not really writing my response for you OOM, but instead about your seemingly misleading comment in regards to your rendition of your buying on the dip intentions/practices.

Let's say that anyone who has already accumulated a decent bitcoin stash, but that same person is trying to time some of the BIGGER BTC price swings in order to get some additional profits from what is a somewhat inevitability in bitcoin, which is decently high volatility.  So, a kind of presumption is that person is already pretty well prepared for UP, they just want to supplement their BTC stash with some additional BTC from the quite likely inevitable BTC price dips.  My suggestion would still be to figure out some kind of a formula that attempts to anticipate the most extreme that we might expect any dip to be able to go, and to stagger buys at various points on the way down, and surely still hopefully being able to take advantage of the most extreme aspects of the extremes... if those extremes were to end up happening.  

One possible measurement would be to use weekly moving averages, and I consider the 208-week moving average (currently $16,000-ish) to be the now current measure of extreme of BTC price lows for bear markets and the 104-week moving average (currently $24,000-ish) to be the now current measure of extreme BTC price lows for bull markets.  Accordingly, staggered buy (buy on dip) orders could be set to go down to something around those levels of extremes..

I hilighted the part my "seconded" was referring to. The slower than anticipated price rise.

Oh?  maybe I misinterpreted part of what you were saying, then?

Definitely. But it forced me being more precise, which is good.

Some WO's granny predicted 80k (we don't know if € or $, yet), and i feel this could also be the top in 2021,

If it is in the WO then it should be in dollars... because that is our trading pair reference in these here parts...

And surely $80k seems like a very small blow-off top, so it does not seem too likely.. at least in terms of the various credible BTC price prediction models that we have, currently.
The granny wasn't a WO, afair the WO wrote that he didn't ask about the currency and she only said 80k, as a fortune teller. (Did i forget to mention that?)
The WO in question must have been a europe based member then. Was it 600Watt? I don't even remember which of WO's are european, excluding el_dude, xhomerx10, fillippone, Arrie and gyrsur (where is he, btw?), along with some dudes sporting low quantity posts in WO.

Still, my memory seems to improve slowly over time.

Quote
while it absolutely says nothing about 2022, maybe in Q1 we can see double figures or three times as much before possible blowoff or consolidation.
All just SOMA.

I doubt that it is very meaningful to separate calendar year and talk separately about what might happen in 2022.. because for all intents and purposes, we are in the middle of a cycle and a bull run, so the ONLY real question remains when the bull run portion is over.. Is it already over?  Not sure yet, but seems like, not.


I agree.

Quote
As for moveing averages, i'd search for those that fit past cycles best.

The 104-week and the 208-week moving averages work, so I suppose it depends on what you are trying to achieve... I try NOT to give too many shits about the various happenings in the middle of a cycle.. but I am somewhat concerned about bottoms or potential bottoms.. so call that part of my bias and the reasons why I have recently been trying to employ the 104-week moving average and the 208-week moving average in terms of expressing some of my concerns.
I set them in cryptowat.ch and looks like they make good sense.

Quote
I don't care if i set most of my orders higher, just to avoid remaining, sitting on a bag of slowly decreasing fiat money.

Fair enough.. there is likely a balance in terms of how much fiat to hold... and peeps are going to come to differing conclusions regarding their comfort levels in those regards.
I violate that balance regularly, tho.
A bit risky, but then again, i can always sell some corn when in urge of needing fiat.
Most of the time the price went up, the tax-free holding time of 1y passed, so it's a net+
One time i think i sold at a loss, but i "gained" so much more with the bigger, held portion of the stash, and i was even able to buy back most at a lower price, all in 2018/2019.

Seven replies while i was typing... holy f... i'm slow  Roll Eyes

Yes.. you are a slow poe.. I must admit.

 Tongue Tongue

This is due to the fact i have to re-read basically every sentence if it makes sense, check for editing errors, repetition...
Hard work for a brain like mine, which is running on reserve in some parts. I used to be a perfectionist. You can scratch that with a condition like poor working memory.
Plus the time i have to consult an online dictionary for words i randomly can't translate myself. I could sit down and think, but this would take much more time and even more time because of secondary effects of taking too much time to build sentences.
We all know that little pause events, when we ask to ourselves "wait, what did i want to say/do?" - I experience this constantly. Misplacing tools all the time, when i do manual work is also something i had to get used to. With such condition, you really have to take care of self-esteem and watch out that you don't start to hate yourself.

Like so, when returning from the online dictionary:
What did i just write before? Let's check... Hmm, feels like i already wrote something like this in this reply, let's see...
Great, i didn't. So what was it all about? Gotta re-read the paragraph i'm replying to... Oh, yeah, that was it. That's what i was about to reply, let's continue.

It's between a couple of seconds and half a minute, where i can keep an idea which i was following, without repeating it to myself.
Short term memory is ok-ish, long-time memory is great, but the buffer and storage/retrieve routines in between don't work right.
The good part: Once something gets into my long term memory, it stays there. Question is if i can remember it at the time when i need it.

I remember everything before my little exhausting flu almost perfectly, though.
The self-repetition habit changes my mind though, it makes almost everything heard last stick for a while. For example, when i go shopping and they play some music in a store, as soon as i get out, the song is repeating in my mind, until it get's cancelled by the next input-stimulus. If it goes on for too long, it kinda burns itself in a little. My car stereo is turned off most time, because of that  Grin Man, do i love silence, btw  Smiley

EDIT: writing all this took me another 5 in-between replies, FYI. (less than 50 minutes) Which is not too bad, considering the word count.

As for moveing averages, i'd search for those that fit past cycles best. I don't care if i set most of my orders higher, just to avoid remaining, sitting on a bag of slowly decreasing fiat money. $16k would be more than four times as much as 2019's bottom, which you could clearly see (and i bought a little of BTC when it was on the rise again, shortly after). I mean that last high-volume drop up to -45%. Even if it doesn't happen in future times, when you sell on the way up, which i got a small part of my stash for, it doesn't really matter if you buy around mindrust or 10-20% higher, also if the price goes deeper before rising again. So i won't make 1000% of the amount i sold on the way up, but 700-800% which is enough. Imagine 5BTC, total, i decide to sell 0.5 more or less near the cycle top and buy 2-3 at the bottom +10%, i still total at least 6.5 BTC.
Being greedy (daytrading) didn't really work for me, so i'm playing the patience game, dropping free money into small dips.

However, i'd need a new car within the next two years, solar power my home and pay off approx. $12k to the government to free myself from a payback plan from the government. Only the latter is really important, because otherwise i'd have to pay it off for the next 15 years for about double as much (mainly interest).
I can easily hodl the majority of my/the family stash for one or two decades.

You are not going to get any arguments from me in regards to attempting to anticipate and prioritize your expenses... which I agree is a good thing to do at the best of your ability and perhaps to tweak from time to time too, for example as your wife nags you about how her priorities (or even choices in expenses) might be different from yours.. and you cave in like a little wimp (not even saying that you are an actual wimp, in real life).. .. hahahahaha


My wife is different. We magically seem to agree on the "we want" part of expenses, while she pays the "i want" part by herself, and she also has bitcoin (as a reserve for the future), so if she's desperate for more money, she would just pay out a bit of her stash. I am aware that i'm very lucky with her, compared to most couples i know, which become pretty function-oriented partnerships based on compromises. We don't need that.

Quote
Y'all remember that get-rich-quick-vs.-not-get poor-slowly quote, right?

For sure.. relatively speaking having bitcoin in your portfolio (whether apportioned appropriately or not) will likely help with the not getting poor aspect.. but there still could be some getting rich more quickly than expected (or more rich than expected) aspects that inadvertently come by holding bitcoin, too.. .even if the getting richie part might not have been the main goal (for sure, it has already happened to quite a few of those of us who have been in a while and have been somewhat aggressive with our approach.. not even saying that 0.21 BTC would not be a good aggressive starting point, currently.. then working your way up to 0.63BTC, then 1 BTC, then 2 BTC, then 10 BTC, then 21 BTC.. etc.. no normie is ever going to need more than 21 BTC, right?).

Also, I remember that you had started out your post by agreeing that S2F is potentially "falling apart soon," but you hardly made any arguments or assertion to support such likely to be baloney "agreement.".. but of course, you (and others) can believe what you want in terms of what are currently the most credible of the BTC prediction models or even to spin (or should it be "roll"?) your own likely to be wrong and based on gut feelings BTC price prediction model(s), too.

Edited a few of the above ideas 30 minutes after the original post, to clarify what I had been attempting to say

I believe in S2F, but as you can see, the "ballpark lines" (steps?) are long at the same levels, so the top could be in Q2, even in Q3 of 2022.
But then, as i originally meant it, the price will have to rise more slowly than compared to 2017.
The model is not "wrong", but imprecise. The market has to move a fucking lot of money to re-draw 2017's chart this year. Call me bearish, but i doubt that.
I would not be angry in any way if i'm wrong and we see $330k or more in dec/jan, but more the opposite.
BTW: Have you had a look into S2FX, yet?

So, if any of you happen to get the Covid19 with slow onset of symptoms, here's a little advice:
Rinse your mouth and gargle your throat with a good single malt (anything with a good amount of %vol will do, though), at best one minute, several times a day.
Spit out. I tried it, it's tough, BUT it's a good method to reduce viral load, which tends to overwhelm the immune system at later stages of infection.
SO if your system doesn't react quickly in a drastic way to the virus, better be safe than sorry. Viral load is a key to immune reaction strength, even if your system is low on power (immunosuppressed) or reacting too slow on initial infection.

Any mouthwater rinse (L*ster'ne) containing a good amount of alcohol will do as well, but if you don't tolerate sorbitol well (like me), the whiskey route is a good alternative.
MIght save one or other WO's or beloved ones life, does no harm either.

Hope I'm wrong, but I think we should expect a slower rise than some are anticipating.

Tell that to this lying son of a bitch:

December = blowoff top anywhere between $200-450k

Anything above $288k is just not realistic, cause it breaks the S2F from the upper side. Get a grip. Ease the cocaine.


Here's a quote from Plan B himself specially for our little retarded friend:

Quote
According to the S2F model, BTC’s price is supposed to be at $88,531 on July 20, which is nearly three times the current price. In fact, earlier this year, PlanB suggested that Bitcoin could hit $450,000 before the end of this year in the best-case scenario, and $135,000 in the “worst-case scenario.“ Furthermore, the model predicts that Bitcoin is expected to have hit its much-awaited $1 million mark in July 2025.

Anybody like to share their thoughts on the current market, price action?

It looks weak AF to me. I mean, I think everything is OK & we should rally in Q4 but we really need to start moving up soon. Part of me is fucking concerned if I’m honest.

... intermediate bottom signal confirmed, face-melting rally can begin now.

Hint: check out the WALLS on Bitstamp, bitfinex and coinbase, they may all be faked but I don't think so.

I CAN'T HELP to think that HFT bots are involved, considering the rate and range at which walls are "moving" in real time.
Also, if you watch for longer times, the same total amounts are set per price range are consantly appearing out of nowhere, getting adjusted on very low timeframes.
I watch them grouped by $10, $50 and $100.
Does that hurt marketcap growth?
Imo yes, a little bit. It makes sure that exchange coins stay in rotation (liquid) while fiat is milked out of the market.
Once the bullish counter-movement (you know what i mean?)  overwhelms the average of ask orders by magnitudes, it's moon time again, while the bots will continue milking, but at less efficiency. If you have all the money up your ass you can't even spend within a lifetime, why milk the market?

Smells like... right: hedgefunds discovered crypto.

EDIT: ...and i didn't even mention Futures and Options yet.
