And, good luck, and good bye, "people."  By the way, you may be o.k. getting out between $680 and $850, so long as you are in the red; however, you are really gonna regret getting out between $850 and $1,000 b/c most likely once BTC prices pass $850, we are going to have a fast rise in prices past previous ATH... so sorry about that if you purported "people" so choose to get of bitcoin in the $850 to $1,000 price range.

On the other hand, there is some possibilities (small but still possible) that BTC is NOT going to experience any more exponential growths, and is merely going to grow at a much lower speed. Still may be a good investment, even absent exponential growth - either way, I would NOT write off bitcoin so soon - b/c bitcoin has experienced considerably long lull periods and the past, and has made it to the next upward trajectory and has even surprised with decent returns for people who are NOT attempting to time trades too much and staying for longer term periods....

I think that it is worth hanging out with a certain portion of your wealth in BTC, to see how this bad boy plays out... in the next several years... we have NOT had much materially bad news regarding bitcoin.. of course there have been a few negative items, but they do NOT really rise in any way to neutralize a large amount of good news developments.

What's RDD?

Yeah, right!!!!   

Your whole theory makes NO sense, also. 

There is a hell-uv-a lot more going on in the BTC price manipulation than its miniscule relationship to the lesser known but currently second in place market cap crypto currency, aka LTC.

Yeah.....  

We are gonna have a CRASH

  UPWARDS

YEAH... what do you know??       

For the most part YOU, JORGE, are the troll - however, from time to time, you add some substance to this threads conversation b/c you are attempting to disguise your trolling efforts and you are attempting to gain credibility in order to be a more effective troll.....   For the most part, JORGE, you are trolling us... b/c your goals are NOT genuinely to contribute to meaning discussion and you strive to distract with information that is spinning reality to such extremes that it is NOT genuine or meaningful or sincere.

All fine and dandy, after the fact, but price changes are NOT completely predictable... even though we may be able to estimate with varying levels of certainty whether prices are above the trendline or below the trendline... seems pretty clear that currently BTC prices are quite below the trendline... meaning buy and hodl... when prices were $1200, seemed pretty likely that they are above the trendline... and either hodl or sell would have been best... but in retrospect, we know selling woudl have been better (but NOT while we are in the bubble).

Yep... let's be so dumb as to paint the worst case scenario... In that regard, if investors came in at $1200 per BTC, and have NOT bought since, they may have been feeling a lot of pressure... but it would be NOT to smart to have BTC buy-in costs at $1200 per BTC...

Seems pretty rare to be worrying about these exceptional circumstances, even though they do exist.


In other words, to get caught up on exceptions, seems to be FUD spreading.

Yes, since Sunday.. They ran out of coins for 5 hours (and that was it).  They have had coins at current prices the whole week.

They have been taking orders all week, since Sunday!!!!!

Shit!!!!!  Where's BJA?  Did you get out of the fiat?

 

It's better to sit in a Fiat than to have to walk, too.   Especially, if you are carrying any luggage with you.

The rolling stones has a song just for you.  It is called:  " I can't get no satisfaction" 

And, even your comment is suggesting that your goal is a bit out of reach... You should be extremely happy if coins come within reach of the $460 to $470 range within the coming week or so..

De Ja Vu    --- seems like I read that response somewhere, previously, no?


Even though there remain a lot of positive BTC developments, there is also a decent set of explanations for the recent price drop in this video:

Probably NOT a pretty picture witnessing a penguin puking?

I never quite thought about it like that....   Funny thing is that BC has a market cap of only 4 million dollars, and 8 lambos would cost nearly $2million... In that regard, they are planning to liquidate half of BC for 8 lambos?  50% liquidity,..... what an exaggeration, seems even worse than some of these bears in here with their exaggerations...

I found it more entertaining than YTCracker.... But to each his/her own... 

WE can see it, but is it within reach or is it just within sight?

I mention Coinbase b/c I initially get all my coins through them b/c they seem to be amongst the cheapest means to first acquire BTC for peeps in the USA.  I agree with you for a variety of reasons that Coinbase is NOT set up to be a trading platform, and it would NOT function too well to attempt to use it in such a way, and one of the reasons is the fee is a bit high for that 1% on each end, and another reason is that you cannot customize orders to take place upon price movement, they have to be accomplished manually or at Coinbase's preset times.

So far, I only have one account set up that I can use for trading, and that is a BTC-e account.  I have done a tiny bit of practice trading with that account; however, since I have NOT been sufficiently in the black with my BTC portfolio, and since I believe BTC prices are far below the "trendline," I consider trading to be an unwise option for my particular circumstances and viewpoint (however, I have it available in the event that I feel an urgent need to move from BTC to dollars (or possibly to some other currency) with decent fees .2%.









It would be really foolish to be completely honest, and hopefully you realize that too.  Most of the time, investors are NOT going to reveal their position, except in fairly vague and non-specific terms, until after they have already taken it. ... same is true for you.  







Almost any time we can have those kinds of crazy crashes, yet they seem to be more prevalent during some kind of upturn in the market's volatility... and then when they happen, they seem to cause additional volatility and imbalance for a short period of time.  Surely, it would be nice to have various orders placed on various exchanges in order to be able to profit from such irregularities when they do occur.








Surely, various kinds of knowledge develops with additional experience(s), yet here you go again with a kind of gratuitous self-serving reference to your implied guru status.  I will leave my comment a little vague for NOW; however, you should probably realize that some posters, including myself, will only have so much tolerance for those kinds of self-serving statements... but I will leave it alone for now, as I mentioned.  

Prices have only gotten down to $502, so far, as I type - so accordingly, I am sticking with my earlier made prediction of possibly $480 to $490 in the next 12 hours... otherwise, maybe we will have another shot at these levels within the next 36 hours.... (meaning approximately 24 hours later - after bouncing back a bit)... and I guess since we are dragging into the weekend.. these kinds of prices and attempts to push downward may linger into the weekend... but I am having my doubts about anything lower than approximately $462... but wtf do I know?  


EDIT:::: oh yeah, i forgot the mention... my agreement with you, that we should all be acting with probabilities and calculating our position(s) and exposure(s) based on how we view these probability calculations, and liekly a variety of us will come to different results based on our view of the probability and/or our abilities to calculate them and/or our risk tolerance(s) to them.

Well hopefully you are gaining back some of your trading stack and NOT just making things up!!!!!   

To me, it seems fairly risky to be trading, unless you happen to be a whale... and really talking your book can be quite irritating, even though quite a few posters do some variation of such.... in order to get people to follow their lead. 

I am thinking that we may see $480 or $490 in the next 12 hours... but sometimes those kinds of prices only last a short period, and I am NOT really set up for automatic buys, since I continue to buy my BTC through Coinbase....

NOW, I recall that you were a little bit amorphous about revealing some details of your trading stash... but I believe that your trading stash represented less than 10% of your total BTC stash?  Or have you changed your parameters? 

Also, I believe you had said that your average cost per BTC was in the less than $40 per BTC arena.. Is that still true, or have those calculations changed?

And another question is whether you trade with leverage or NOT... on the terms of the exchanges... I suppose that is where there remains greater possibilities in shorting, if you can do it correctly.  I get the sense that you do trade with leverage, and possibly you would NOT need to engage in that practice if you have a decent stash of your own coins.  The leverage game is stacked in favor of the house; however, if you are dealing with your own stash of cheap coins, then you could be in a fairly decent position to increase your BTC, also.... 

For me, personally, I would only feel comfortable trading on the very large swings in BTC prices, and currently, I consider anything below $700 or $800 to be well below the BTC price trendline (which has been true for more than 6 months), so I am way too nervous to sell... on the other hand, I may become a little more comfortable to sell some, if the price goes up... and even better if it goes above the trendline and even better if I experience at least one BTC bubble during my BTC investment experiences (been in the game for almost 9 months, and NO baby yet... to take from Risto... fuck!!!!!!.. ) ... anyhow:  probably I would be trading with well less than 10% of my stash, unless I feel pretty certain about a downward correction in price or if some other market conditions were to exist.
