1  Economy / Speculation / Re: Microsteel keeps buying into BTC on: September 14, 2021, 11:27:19 PM
Microsteel bought +5050 more Bitcoin statistics, this company now owns a total of: 114,042 Bitcoins.
Scary what they can do with all that money isnt it? How much did you manage to squeeze from your wallet and buy?

Quote
When they continuously buy Bitcoin in stages will it cause BTC to break ATH again?
If someone buys, someone dumps too. That is how the cycle is maintained. If ATH is broken, people will dump and exit and therefore a correction will happen. It can reach ATH but, IMO will also drop. Unless someone else also wants to keep buying.

Quote
What do you expect for BTC at the end of 2021?
I do not expect anything for bitcoin. Having expectations only effects how you trade. Rather look into the things happening and if they are bullish buy now and sell when it rises. We still have three months remaining and the Winter is unpredictable for the market. So better keep both fiat and BTC ready.


Apparently the current daily bitcoin trading volume is about 800k btc so theoretically if they sell their 100k btc within a couple of weeks for example, it shouldn't be noticeable.

But who knows

Do you think we will face a significant correction at 10k?
But it seems that it could pass 10k without any pullback, or there could be one but not strong enough to go lower than that. What would you guys do?
not significant and not after $10k. but smaller correction and before $10k meaning if price couldn't break it then we can see a small drop but if it breaks $10k then chances of it coming back below it are very small since there is a much higher chance of price shooting a lot higher.

Quote
I am doubting between buying more now at 9500-9600 or waiting to the correction.
well you should have bought when price was a lot lower than this if you wanted an investment, even so you still can buy even if price was higher than this. if you are day trading then your question is wrong.

Same thing again over again... that is like telling you that you should buy lower at 200$ if you wanted an investment. Or 5$ if you did it at 200$.

I honestly don't get why everybody keeps telling me that I should bought lower  Grin. Isn't that applicable to literally... everybody?

I am trying to take the best option from the moment I am here. Of course buying at 7k would be better.

I am just trying to guess which price will be better, if the current one or the one we will have after touching the 10k resistance, but as I am new I don't know how btc normally reacts to that kind of things. Even if I plan on holding and DCAing is comprensible that in case we should expect a really strong pullback at 10k, I could go for it when reaching 10k, instead of buying at 9700 which is almost there.

My conclusion so far is that there won't me a major pullback after taking a look of the books an orders of the exchanges. I don't see it going back lower than 9500. On the other hand I see it going to 10500 without any pullback at all. So I have an order at 9600.

Why you just opened this question when few hours ago we were @ $9,100. This is one problem of some buyers, they tend to buy only when they see the price starts to rise and when it's on the bottom, they wouldn't ask such question or act accordingly to buy.

I'm a holder and basically that's all I do but when we see some dips, buying without hesitation is what I do. Corrections? just expect that it will come most of the time. It's an unending cycle when we see it pumps.

I sincerely don't get why is that question repeating, obviously I haven't chosen to buy higher on purpose. I opened the question when I knew about btc world/thing + had my money available in the exchange.


The same reason why everybody didn't bought at $3000. And $200. And $5. I guess everybody would prefer buying before and at a better price than how they did.

All of you learn about btc and/or got some money at some point, and there was other people before you who entered in a better moment than you that could make the same question.

I don't see it guys.

Too far too fast, no way this ramp can hold, we need to cool off for a bit and test at 9050

That's quite a big dump, Looks pretty strong around 9500. But could happen

I am doubting between buying more now at 9500-9600 or waiting to the correction.
My question to you is: were you buying bitcoin when it was getting pounded down to below $7k?  That would have been the ideal time to be buying, whether you're looking for short-term gains or investing for the long term (IMO).  If you're wondering whether you should be buying bitcoin when it's on an upward tear, you might have missed out on the best opportunities already.

However, I do think bitcoin is going to go higher--$10k within a very short time frame isn't out of the question, because as I'm writing this post it's above $9700 right now.  So even if you didn't buy when it was low(er), I don't think it would be a bad idea at all to buy now.  You definitely don't want to miss out if we start shooting past $10k, nor do you want to wait until bitcoin's price is near its peak (wherever that may be).



I didn't buy at 7k because I haven't had the money available. Unfortunately I wanted to, so I have seen the opportunity passing in front of my eyes. But its now when I can buy so I'm trying to choose the less catastrophic entry.

This is the major problem so many people do have most times. They are always afraid of buying when Bitcoin price nosedived which is the perfect time but they end up buying when they noticed the profit they would have made if only they buy when Bitcoin price at xxxx low than the current price.


It's now when I have money available. Of course buying before would be better but I prefer to make the best available decision rather than blaming myself and ending up buying even higher.

8  Economy / Marketplace / Planning on sell my watch collection online, how could I offer BTC payment? on: February 01, 2020, 03:10:21 AM
I 'm planning on selling my watch collection and i would like to offer the possibility of paying in bitcoins, even at a lower price, since I will use the money to buy them anyways.

Also is more attractive for me to get paid this way because I don't have to worry about maybe having to explain to the authorities why I have four or five transfers of couple of thousand each, from different guys. I run a little business and they could interprete it being another income from my activity and if I have to pay taxes as a profit, they rip me off 23%.

It can be also more attractive for the buyer because that way he can't spend some BTC without converting to fiat and saving from paying taxes.

The problem is, the buyer is completely unprotected after sending BTCs, so it's normal that people won't take that risk. Police could easily find me if I receive the money on my bank account and them scam someone, but with BTC I can just disappear.

How can I make it safe for the buyer so paying me via BTC it's attractive?
I have checked scrow services but they either don't accept cryptos, or look sketchy or charge like crazy fees 10-20%, and there are also a lot of scams apparently via scrow fake agencies which makes just not worth it.

10  Economy / Speculation / Re: I see a dump approaching, do you? on: January 31, 2020, 02:25:38 PM

Not a serious dumps, it could go up easily like the normal higher highs since the start of the year. If you just bought back you may sell again at 9800 and then buy at 9600. I don't know if my analysis is correct but I made a sell order on 9800. A few satoshis at every hop is now worth saving.

but you are risking not jumping back in on time just to scratch few satoshi
11  Economy / Speculation / Re: I'm trapped in trading on: January 31, 2020, 12:05:34 PM
How many of you traders on here are trapped when trading bitcoin on exchange thinking it will fall again?  Grin anyway I'm one of them, all I have left now is Stable coin hoping I can buy back when price goes lower again, do you think price will fall again or keeps surging ?
Do you sell it when bitcoin goes down? indeed the price is now quite satisfactory for traders who hold Bitcoin, I myself sold it yesterday when at $ 9200, surely the price will go down again maybe correction, keep calm

There is a lot of buying orders at 9,2k, 9k, 8,8k... I think we won't see a big pullback. I would like to, because I want to buy a bit more, but not sure if I should just go in at 9,2k or get a bit greedy and wait if we can buy at 8,5-8k, risking to be forced to buy at 10500.
12  Economy / Speculation / Re: Corona Virus will Impact the price of Bitcoin ? on: January 31, 2020, 11:13:32 AM
That's indeed shows how coronavirus fears hit everyone in the financial market include that oil king ...

Shares... stocks market etc are now hot shaking.
It won't last long , it's just a temporary fear and everything would reflected to normal where it should belong.
These fundamentals rumours more to a bullshit that what trader needed in order to get some profits from the bad weeks .

I get how coronavirus fears hit stocks especially those companies that really rely on travel and on imports from China, etc.

But I don't get why it should be good for bitcoin, especially when a lot of businesses and corporates are China related, and also conferences and events for crypto are all there. Shouldn't price be going down because of bad news in China?

because bitcoin is considered an asset that would retain it's value in catastrophic situations, like gold for example, in case of a war happening, gold its a safe way to preserve your patrimony, same for btc.
13  Economy / Speculation / Re: I see a dump approaching, do you? on: January 31, 2020, 10:19:50 AM
Yes I do, although there will probably be some disagreement over use of the word "dump." In the bigger picture, it will probably be viewed as a "pullback" or "correction" instead.

This is my general idea:



A 50-62% retracement would be typical, although it doesn't need to go that deep.
Shocked that's a huuugee dip. I'm happy we are matching with our forecast. But I think it will be VERY difficult to go under 8.5k. The majority of people who are buying now, will not sell, so that will make support level rise from the previews one due to less supply.

It could definitely be a sideways correction instead, like a dip to the 0.382 that flags out. A "time" correction rather than a "price" correction, you might call it.

I'll say this though. That feeling of "it can't go below x price, it's just too bullish!".....my experience is, when you get that feeling, get ready to see sub-x prices. Tongue

I'm not sure I'd call the upper $7,000s likely, but very possible. It's good to keep in mind. xxxx123abcxxxx is seeing the same thing from another perspective:


I am waiting for the pullback to get some more money in, I would be very happy if it goes to 7k before recovering but there are a freacking ton of buying orders at 9,2k, a ton at 9k and another ton at 8,8k, is very hard for me to imaging a pullback to 8-8,2k, in fact I have the order at 9075 and thinking if I should put it higher.

But I am very new to bitcoin, more used to classical values. Wouldn't be going under 8,8k as surprising as seems to me? should I get used to randomly see that kind of pullbacks in bitcoin? the pullbacks I have seen this weeks weren't that strong.
14  Economy / Speculation / Re: Yet another analyst on: January 31, 2020, 10:12:44 AM
Our Wave 5 is developing nicely. Quickly recovered wicks like this indicate lots of panic buying and very strong bullish momentum:



I do want to stress some caution here, though. Like David, I am expecting a pullback off the $10K+ area. I suspect bears will attempt a selloff from below the October 2019 pivot ($10,540 Coinbase or $10,350 Bitstamp) since it's such an important technical level.



We've already met all minimum expectations for this wave, so it's time to start thinking about profit taking.

Although this wave could further subdivide (like that crazy (v) of 3 that went from $7,667 to $9,188) I am conservatively planning to close longs in the $10K area. This does not mean you should necessarily enter shorts. Wink Just a profit taking level.

I also wait a pullback in the 10k area. The question is how big do you think will be. I think it could be just a small one and going fast to 10500-10600 or a moderate one to 9k-9,2k or 8,8k at much. There are a fucking lot of buying orders at 9,2 and 9, and in case going lower which I doubt, 8,8k is very strong again.

An strong pullback to like 8k or so seems very unlikely to me.

And for me an strong one would be a good thing because I just receive some money I can invest and could make a better entry. But I don't think I will be able to buy lower than 9075, where I currently have the order ready. In fact I think I should maybe put it higher.
15  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin may hit 27K USD in the next 180 days! on: January 31, 2020, 10:03:32 AM
I am not that optimistic, but well, that would be great obviously.

What would you guys do? sell at 27k or hold to the next cycle?
reaching 27k this year could lead in more investors being interested and that would make the 100k goal more doable.

I am very optimistic that Bitcoin may really hit 27K USD after the halving but I am afraid that it won't hold it for a long time. As you know people are still in huge loss, they would go for recovery by selling at a high price. Even I will sell if Bitcoin hit 27K USD and then I will wait for a dump to buy again. 100K USD seems daydream to me. 

Obviously if it passes 25k it will last a breath. But that's not bad, that's very reasonable to happen. Breaking 25k would be great, breaking 25k and maintaining is asking way too much.

100k could become a bit more realistic in the long run if this time breaks 25k. If it doesn't break 20k In my opinion 100k would me almost impossible.

Since a lot of people would lose interest and hope in btc mooning again, just for the psychological thing of surpassing the last bubble. In fact reaching 22k instead of 18k is not a big difference in numbers but could make the next cycle totally different. IMO

17  Economy / Speculation / Re: It's over $9000! on: January 30, 2020, 04:09:36 PM
I think $10,000 is the dream for a longer period of time, so i think a lot of people will sell at that point. I believe it will stay around $9,300-$9,500 for awhile. It took 3 days for the price to go from $8,300 to $9,300 and it will take at least one week to go around $10,000. When it finally hits it many people will start selling, so probably it will go down a little, $10,000 is a mental barrier for many people. Thereby, I personally think, it's going to hover around $9,300-$9,500 for next weeks or even months. Then, in May it will see gains again. But, I don't think it has a chance of breaking ATH this year.
Tough to predict that, but halving always bring good sign after. If history will repeat itself and the cycle runs the same it's not impossible to see another high or even reached the last time ATM..but only if most traders will try to push it forward and not to quickly dumped after seeing a good value.

In case we don't break ATH this year, what should we expect of 2021? Maybe dropping after a general disappointment? I'm afraid that if 2020 doesn't break 20k, 2021 will very probably show lower results than 2020 so maybe going out should be considered if halving doesn't provoque a good enough spike the months after taking place. (and jumping back like a year later).
18  Economy / Speculation / Re: should I buy now? on: January 30, 2020, 03:33:14 PM
Price looks to be going up a lot, if people bought a week ago they will be very happy about it, we are talking about a 10%+ increase which normally you wouldn't get this quickly in any other commodity in the world.

Bitcoin started around 7000 dollars this year (with some change) and right now it is over 9 thousand dollars, that is a 2 thousand dollars increase and comes to about 20%-25% increase in the end when you look at it. The problem here, we already had a 20% increase, are we really willing to risk our money for potentially going even further or are we just taking all the profits with us and leaving the market waiting for it to bottom out again?

Remember the vital advice of all financial world; "buy low sell high" which means we are at that "high" right now and selling could be understandable or even holding is okay but buying looks like would be prime example of "buy high, sell low" instead of the vice versa version of it.


Even if it suffers a correction, which would be something very normal after increasing +25%, I dont think it would go as low as coming back to 7k. The biggest correction I can imaging would be to 8k and I would be surprised. So everything looks good, green days coming!!
19  Economy / Speculation / Re: I see a dump approaching, do you? on: January 30, 2020, 03:24:11 PM
I do not see a big problem in the fact that price may drop again for some $500 or maybe even $1000. We recently had $9100 and a quick dump to $8500, so a similar situation could happen again. We are in a time when everything is possible, but bulls generally prevail in the last 30-40 days which is very easy to see if you check price just the week before Christmas. I saw somewhere that this was the best January for BTC since 2012, and I believe this is just warming up for one very successful year.

There will probably be many more small dumps, but only because a stable price does not make a profit for those who trade on a daily basis - buy low, sell high, make a profit and repeat everything again.

It's really difficult to guess at this moment. But I think that there are two things that are very likely to happen:

1. In ""long"" term, by the end of the year, btc will be higher than now

2. At 10k will be a correction. The question is how big it's going to be, maybe insignificant, maybe moderate. Doesn't seem that a big one coming.

So buying now thinking in holding for a year or two is a good and probably profitable option regardless of what happens now-short term.

In the short term is difficult to know if it's a good entry price, not going back below 9k again after hitting 10k, or a bad entry price because we could see correcting to 8,5k in a week. It went +30% in just weeks, so a 15% correction wouldn't be a bad thing or something to worry about. In fact it would recover part of it very rapidly I bet.

Edit: Obviously these are just my thoughts, and even though I fell pretty confident about it the current situation is quite difficult to read
20  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: January 30, 2020, 03:17:34 PM


100% matching a development grade map. Could be expected. Anyway I still think coronavirus is having little to none impact on the pump. But who knows.
