Are bears still considering 3K with THIS chart? Really? Give it up and go back to hibernation. The groundhog saw his shadow. You can come back in 6 weeks for the crash from 13K.

I feel like I am living in Alice in Wonderland, and Tera is now an "incremental bullist."  Must be true, because her avatar tagline says.  Shocked

Trains and rockets?  

b..b...but I have prepared myself so well for buys all the way down, so I could feel smug!

I ain't cancelling them yet, but what a difference a green candle can make.

I hope DOOM is over...   But let's see.  

I'm already buying back a few of the coins that I dumped this morning at the exact absolute bottom, at a loss of more than 1K each, ouch!
At least now I have some dry powder in case they get cheaper again.

P.S. Good fake violating neatly the 61,8% retracement + the 200 SMA this morning. Nothing better to inspire terror.

Honey Badger no like rules.   Tongue  

Thanks for taking one for the team.   Kiss

Celebrating too early again?

I don't see any meaningful signs of celebrating,... seems to be more of a relief, and decent chances that the bottom is in...

I think that many of us realize that prices have to get a decent distance above the bottom (which so far is $5920) before we can feel further assurances that the bottom is in for this overall correction....

Currently, I am going to begin to feel a decent level of comfort once the price goes above $10k, again (in the event that it does in the near future)
19564  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 06, 2018, 08:50:26 PM
A couple of months ago I heard someone on Bloomberg Markets saying that all assets were inexplicably rising at the same time -- stocks, real estate, collectibles, BTC, etc. And now it seems that all assets are falling at the same time. What is the underlying reason for this? One explanation that comes to mind is that people are selling all of their other assets in order to buy into the falling stock market. Or is it some underlying economic thing with the fiat economy?

P.S. I totally called it in this post:
I've been feeling that the price jump has been built on FOMO speculation for a while now. I think that the real, solid base is around $6k (roughly following the longer-term linear trend), but I expect speculators to stabilize it if it reaches $10k, at the very least, and then those prices might or might not stabilize.

So IMO $6k and below is "solid", $6k-$10k is semi-solid, and everything above $10k is a house of cards. No idea what'll actually happen in the next few days, though; it's pure speculative madness. In the next hour, I wouldn't be surprised to see a drop to $10k or an increase to $16k.


Hahahahahaha

I usually harp on newbies for attempting to prematurely expect BTC "stability." 

Alright... I will hold back a tiny little bit on the harping part. because I don't want to end up in bitcointalk prison... however, I will assert (can't help myself) that one of the least likely scenarios that BTC going to enter into any time soon is a kind of semblance of meaningful "stability."

We have war going on out there, and even with an ICO and alt coin dump that was disproportionately more negative for non-bitcoin cryptos as compared with bitcoin, the alt crypto and ICO craze does not seem to be dying down any time soon.. which continues to contribute to craziness in the space, including bitcoin.

The most likely status that we are going to have in the near future remains:


ONGOING


CHAOS!!!!!!


(threw in a bit of color and drama, just for Bob)....


TLDR: Approximately, there is:
 1)  less than .026519% likelihood for stability any time in the next six months or longer   
2) 99.235411% chance for chaos and
3) .73807%  chance for other.    Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy   

With my total and completely scientific presentation of the subject, including specifics in my percentage presentations, even "other" has gotten "stability" beat by more than .71%.   Go figure.   hahahaha

So in order for me to get my merit up I have to wait until others give the smerit to me or at least hope that other memeber want to share some merit??? I'm lost.


Sure it is possible that you might receive some merit for past posts that you made, but it seems much better to NOT be lost and your chances probably increase considerably in the prospect of receiving merit based on new posts and interactions in the forum rather than sitting back and "hoping" to receive merit.
19566  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 06, 2018, 12:31:38 PM
So to be clear if you bought X at $6k you would resell X at $8k? (Not exact prices I would buy inside the resistance points)   Do you keep some small fraction of X as BTC profit?


I am sorry that I communicated badly.

If I bought at $6k, then my next buy order would have already been set at $5k (because I had set it at $5k the first time around when I had sold at $6k on the way up, whenever that would have been) and after the $6k buy order fills, I would immediately set my sell order at $7k (again, not exact, but you get the idea).

Regarding how much I set in reserve or whether I am stacking extra in BTC or in dollars depends in part on my sense about whether I feel that I need to accumulate more bitcoins or whether I believe that I should accumulate more dollars.  Also, since I have been doing this all the way up from $250, that means that I have gone through accumulating fiat from a lot of sell orders that never returned back down to their buy orders.  So I have sometimes rethought what to do with all the extra fiat that I have accumulated because of those buy order that left unfilled.  Sometimes I reallocate it, and sometimes I take the money off the table.  Also, whenever I am changing my increments, going from $250 increments to $500 and then to $750 and then to $1,000 allows me to rethink how much money do I want to dedicate towards buying back, how far down do I want to set my buy orders and do I want to cause an extra large fiat reserve that is likely going to get taken off of the table.

In mid September 2017 when we corrected about 40% from $4980 down to $2970, I only had buy orders set down for a 50% retracement, and since I was on a trip, that inadequate preparedness caused me way more stress than necessary, because even though I had the money to be able to buy further down, my money was not in a place in order for me to really be prepared for more than a 50% retracement, if it were to occur... so little by little, after that September 2017 correction, I was able to pretty much keep myself prepared for larger and large severities of retracement and to feel comfortable with that - but that preparedness came through our being spoiled by a 4x to 5x better BTC price performance than the most bullish of expectations, so I reconfigured my buy orders down 85% while BTC prices were in the $15k arena... ... so yeah, I am not smart.. just got spoiled with 4x to 5x better BTC price performance than expected... which allowed for a lot easier path for downward BTC price preparations.
19567  Other / Meta / Re: Merit & new rank requirements on: February 06, 2018, 12:00:50 PM
Somewhere in the post it read "if you were given 0.5 merit it won't be seen" so how would one know he or she has a merit?


I think that an easy way to estimate your smerits is that if your number of merits is an even number then you have no fractional smerits, but if your number of merits is an odd number, then you have an extra .5 smerits that is not showing in your smerit bank.

I glanced through your recent posts, Angeliddy, and I see you have some decent interactions in your recent post history.. therefore I sent you a merit, so if you get another merit, then you will have one smerit to send.. and currently, you only need 9 more merits in order to rank up to member, which should not be too difficult to achieve if you continue to post with attempts at decent quality and attempts at interactions.

Edit:  Nafantc beat me to responding.
19568  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 06, 2018, 11:42:23 AM
Fuck it. 

I have set buy orders from $6400 to zero. 

First one just got triggered.  Let’s all go down together !


Ah   ha!!!!!!!!!


Hairy berry:  you broke from your previously disclosed plan which was to go on some kind of hiatus and then to start buying somewhere in the vicinity of the supra $4,900 territory...

$6400 is a long fucking ways from $4,900... It sounds like you talking the BIG HAITUS talk, but then when push comes to shove, you are following some kind of copy cat quasi-JJG incrementalism.......

ah ha.... .ah  ha... ah ha...


Caught you with your pants down.    Tongue  Apparently, BMB did  NOT get your pants, because they are down around your ankles and I can see places where the sun usually does not shine.   Shocked

Tera convinced me otherwise.  I try not to be arrogant in my thinking and to trade defensively at all times.  Maybe you had an influence too but I would not want to give you too big a head so let us pretend that this is not possible.



O.k..... I will pretend that the Hairy berry is following the counsel of Tera bera, and I will also act as if I did not see you with your pants down either.  We are all adults, here.    Perhaps.   


I’m not wearing any pants right now so I think it is ok.  

On your JJG incrementalism, at what level do you sell it back?

In recent times, I have become accustomed to using similar incrementalism levels on both ends, which is currently set at about $1k. 

So I buy every $1k on the way down and I sell every $1k on the way up... so the spread between the next buy order and the next sell currently runs close to $2k.  Sometimes there can be ways to play around with the price trigger points in such a way that you want to try to make sure that they have decently high chances of filling while largely having the price come to you, rather than forcing the price or going to the price.

Yeah, I am also NOT trading nearly as frequently as I used to trade because on the way up in this $6k price territory, my old order increments used to trigger in $500 increments - but I am relatively content with much less frequent triggering of trading and orders not filling as often and even a kind of practice that causes me to increase the amounts that I am trading and therefore causing bigger and BIGGER profits from each time the series of orders fill from the almost guaranteed BTC price volatility (even if not guaranteed which price direction and not guaranteed that your buy/sell order will actually get filled - rather than nearly perpetually bouncing back and forth within a price range without filling on either end).

Hopefully that makes sense.
19569  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 06, 2018, 11:06:09 AM
There are a lot of fucking retards out there, that are skeptical about entering into bitcoin.  This is as good as any entry point - around a 67% retracement, currently.

Yeah, sure we might get more retracement, but it is going to be difficult to go wrong from this entry point, whether BIG investor or a more modest one.

JayJuanGee being vulgar and angry, how about that. I've always thought that JayJuanGee is the type that cries in a warm bath during stressful situations. Considering the avatar picture and the lack of thought in the walls of text.

Welcome newbie.  Hopefully, you have some possible bitcoin-related ideas to share, rather than mere wrong-headed and fantastical assertions about personalities, that you seem to NOT have too many clues.

We are in real fucking trouble, boys and girl in the WO thread, if we have Tera giving us the:

"I'm less bear than you"

"bull pep rally"

Seriously, how can we keep hitting new lows again and agai ?
What are people thinking about ? Is everybody here trying to sell now to buy back at a later dip ?

Btc was never worth 5 digits to begin with
i don't even think it's worth 4 digits right now

Que manera de decir estupideces, troll barato.


Hahahahahaha

It could be true that we have to spend a bit more time in the four digits.

We did go through the 4 digits quite quickly, so maybe spending a bit more time in four digits could be helpful in our transition to five digits and then perhaps to 6 digits, next...

Pretty much 3 digits is nearing an impossibility. 

3 digits are not completely impossible, but getting in the pretty low percentage territory.. perhaps less than 1% - give or take.

Maybe good for the not millionaire investors that wants to get in BTC and find 4digit prices more reasonble for there long term investment 50k and could be owning 8-12 btc still very decent for the smaller hodler investors among us not
The ones Going in now put This kind off btc on a ledger and Just look back to iT in a few years....

We will see them back in about 2-5 years, perhaps, and maybe even less when they are buying when the price goes between $25k and $50k..

So bearish so soon?  I think 2 years would be at the very outside...the next halving is in that range and that gets baked in well before hand. In all honesty I expect a rebound of some type to happen by weeks end. Tomorrow might be brutal but we will survive and flourish, and become stronger for it. A good chance for everyone to accumulate more coins I think.
A couple months of the bearspring to lick our wounds and reflect upon the error of our ways. Then we will thank the gods and do a jig, for the healing warmth of summer will be upon us.



O.k... you got me, there.

I have been so excited in the past 24 hours (and maybe even longer)  that I cannot even gather my thoughts correctly.   Shocked
19575  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 06, 2018, 09:44:08 AM

I consider Bitcoin to be the sum of its forks (BCH + BTC + BTG + ...)


Ridiculous.

There is bitcoin, which you correctly abbreviate as BTC, and there are forks of BTC (such as Bcash, and BGold and some others), which are the same as alts.....

And notice your little fucking argumentative and provocative slip to put BCH first on the list.... BCH is not first because it came about later as a renegade temper tantrum fork that came about spontaneously when the klanish NY agreement was not achieving the preferred results to screw up bitcoin's governance.


Get the fuck out of here with your fuzzy, fantastical and nonsensical talking points.

Why don't you go play with your interactive attempts on Bitcoin.com, or  r/btc or bitco.in?
19576  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: February 06, 2018, 09:30:20 AM
I was obviously a bit too optimistic when refreshing the poll a few days ago.

In other news, it sounds like even Masterluc doesn't know WTF the bottom will be:
Quote
I really do not know where to fall further. There's a wild support. Weekly MA20, daytime MA200, Fibonacci retracement of 61.8% of all annual growth, historical trend lines ... In general, all this should bounce off. When drains allow ...

Here to you and nashdachnye traders. The reverse side of the ETF is yours. Let them do it .... I expected a general decrease in volatility when all this was beginning to be predicted. And it is - that's what it is Mihalych.


We have 8 days before Feb. 14, which is an eternity in bitcoinlandia...

I expect $10k plus within that time-frame, easy peasy... ...

really, just fuck off you parasite cunt. take jbreher and ver and your other fucked up mates with you.

Finally some carnage.  

blah blah blah

I think Bitcoin is destined to become a global peer-to-peer electronic cash system that will change the world as we know it in many ways.  Do what you need to do, but don't lose hope.
...what is your objection? Not to the person, that's just childish, but to what he says?

I believe the objection is how he deliberately misleads newcomers for his own profit.
In this particular case?

Why the fuck you defending PeterR? 

If someone has historically shown to engage in deceit, misrepresentation, trickery, then why should that person be greeted with open arms merely because he says some seemingly nice things about bitcoin.. and furthermore PeterR is engaging in argumentation with his dropping of bullshit Bcash talking points attempting to get concessions about bitcoin being prioritized and defined as "peer-to-peer electronic cash system".. talking point framing trickery and set up and don't trust any fucks who have already engaged in sabotage and endorsed bitcoin attacks while trying to act like such sabotage and attacking is not happening.
19578  Other / Meta / Re: Merit & new rank requirements on: February 06, 2018, 07:28:54 AM
So, how can i get merit score now, my friend?
Please kindly let me know.

Thank you and have a great working day !

By contributing something to the forum. Your entire posting history consists of 110 applications to bounty campaigns and this post.

By contributing something to the forum doesn't necessarily give you merit. A junior member (like me) cannot get easily merit and cannot give merit. Merit points are so low that make it a scarce resource. This resource will never be distributed freely to everyone but to persons that you already know or alt accounts.
In general I agree with merit score, but i suggest available points to distribute should be increased and even jr. members should have some.
I am not a crypto expert, I just started. What contribution of mine could impress the rest so i get merit points?
Is there a report to show merit points received by jr members and related posts (no alt accounts)? I think this report will be disappointing...

Contributing to the forum means getting involved in conversations. If you do that and show you have an interest in crypto and are here to learn and participate then the merit will come. You're new, forget about ranks and merit, just get involved and give it time.

Edit: I just checked your post history. Another almost entirely full of bounty applications. What do you think is merit worthy in that?


Although most of my posts are related to bounties and I am stigmatized for that I still have an opinion to express.
Since bounty related posts are considered  as 'bad', 'spammy' and low quality posts then I suggest the following solution:

1. Replies to bounty threads not to be calculated to users activity.
2. Double or triple the required user activity for promotion to next rank.
3. Keep merit score as an indication of quality and not as part of ranking Promotion.Give more merit points to all members.
4. Create a parallel sub-ranking system related to merit score.This will distinguish members of the same level.

With current status I am afraid members will turn to merit hunters/beggers and merit score will have nothing to do with quality of posts


Instead of seeming to blame others (such as the system), why don't you take matters into your own hands?  If you want to rank up, then engage in substantive threads.  Surely, you can also engage in the shitty threads too, but you are correct that if the only thing that you do is participate in the shitty threads, then it will likely become a lot more difficult for you to earn merits.  So you already seem to know a solution that involves yourself rather than expecting the whole forum system to change around you, right?

I am not here to blame others or the system. I just make a proposal for a different approach. That's the reason of this thread, to discuss this new point system. And this is the way I take matters into my hands.

Yes.  When I suggest that you should change your behavior rather than suggesting that the system should change around you, that is talking about your proposal... and more or less suggesting that the proposal seems to be quite lacking... or perhaps difficult to take serious... in other words, why should any of us grapple with specific terms of your proposal if we have already concluded them to be weak if not worse than weak (maybe I am being too charitable?).
