Told ya.
I wonder what the backtesting would show if the opposite decision making was done: When the EMA10 crosses over the EMA21, sell. When the EMA21 crosses under the EMA10, buy. Bad things! You would have been holding from $17, down to $2, and then sold. Even on the hourly data set? Backtesting using the large spike during the summer is pointless. You could randomly flip a coin to decide to buy or sell and would have won. Absolutely! That is why I said $17 after the high. The fast EMA was below the slow EMA 90% of the time during the summer burst. Sure, there would have been a few opportunities, but I think the losses would have far outweighed any profits you would have seen. Think about false cross-overs! This is the daily (since I can't set it for hourly that far back). But, you can still see that you would have been holding a lot, and very little profit taking You would have been short for the rise from $.50 to $32. You would have also been long from the middle of August through the end of October. No, you'd be long from $0.50 to $15 ish, short from $15 to $2.5, then long again from $2.5 to $6 for a total profit of 132x (>10000%)...

Can you feel it now, Bears? Can you feel the cognitive dissonance now?
Will you recognize it early enough to get your coins back, and perhaps some more?
lol. Dud rocket.... Just wait til the weekend sellers arrive.. You mean the ones that already sold all their coins this week? Hey Oldminer, even proudhon's more bullish than you. I'd change my mind if I were you

I believe this is called a "bull trap."
I hope you meant "bear trap," because bull traps don't go down.....

Major factors1. The daily RSI has almost hit 30. This has happened very rarely in the past, and it always leads to a move up! 2. Depth actually looks pretty healthy right now, contrary to statements by people like Edward. 3. We just hit a major support level -- the 3.8-4.2 range. Smaller factors1. Size of this correction is roughly 50%, important Fibonacci retracement level. (7.2->3.88) 2. Looks exactly like Spring '11. 3. Everyone's bearish on the forums 4. The big sellers have probably run out of BTC. 5. MACD hit its own long-term support.

meelba will be joining in on the fun soon

hourly SMA crossed bullish, MACD a lot more relaxed than before, still bullish, but seems a reversal-trend is holding, bear mode should be over tomorror or in the next 2-3 days.
my analysis exactly... we're going to see a momentary upswing even if we continue this correction down to 3

guess price will remain around ~4$ until a new killer app emerges.
LOL no. I think it's going up, but it might go down; however, one of the things that the price will NOT do is stay the same!
