There are two strong fundamentals coming up imo: - Mega accepting BTC or not accepting BTC
- Avalon shipping during the promised timeframe or not.
Both are discrete events which can only have one possible outcome (true or false) they cannot be predicted with reasonable accuracy. - Should Mega accept BTC and Avalon ship we are going to rally.
- If one of em turns out to be true and the other not we are going to creep to the 20s.
- However if both of them turn out to be false we are going to grind down.
These predictions cannot be made using technical analysis.

Wrong. The probabilities of these events are always prices in the charts.

You can't filter them out, there is no rigorous method to do it. Attribution is all based on intuition.

Sure, the probability of events is priced in, but the probability can change dramatically when events happen or news is released. Before the election, you might say Obama has a 60% chance of being president the next four years. Now, Obama has a (roughly) 100% chance of being president the next four years. So once an event happens, the probability from before no longer matters.

If the worst-case scenario occurs, we may see instability.

It is called interference it inhibits measurement. It is scientifically proven.

Because if they ship it statistically would increase the chances that the others ship too, although not directly influence it. And the health of the mining industry is a significant factor. I wouldn't call creeping up to the 20s a rally. (This term is largely misused by the dramatization here when I say rally I mean new ATHs)

Let me demonstrate:
The mining industry needs to be in constant competition in order for the prices to rise. This is because once competition subsides those were "easily earned" bitcoins. You see part of bitcoins value comes from their scarcity and competition in mining increases the relative scarcity. Something you had to work hard for is automatically valuable for you. It is right that there is the incentive for miners to be in the green as fast as they can as to sell their BTC mined with new equipment. But this only would be the case during a period where difficulty cannot keep up with the hashrate. Once difficulty has adjusted the bitcoins are "hard earned" again.

My guess would be that hard evidence of ASICs being shipped would trigger a correction worth about 50k BTC (due to ~25k BTC being mined with ASICs till the next difficulty change if delivered on time and 25k BTC of market over reaction).
On the other hand people could value some ASIC company actually delivering as a sign of the strenght of the Bitcoin economy and therefore invest into BTC, instead of selling.
Those two forces related to this event have to show their strenght and the outcome is unknown. If I had to make a guess however, I would say the first mentioned effect would be much stronger and maybe causes the positive effect to be delayed for some days.

Granted. However since recently these kind of small dumps were always bought back up almost immediately.

Los desesperados publican que lo inventó el rey que rabió, porque todo son en el rabias y mas rabias, disgustos y mas disgustos, pezares y mas pezares; si el que compra algunas partidas vé que baxan, rabia de haver comprado; si suben, rabia de que no compró mas; si compra, suben, vende, gana y buelan aun á mas alto precio del que ha vendido; rabia de que vendió por menor precio: si no compra ni vende y ván subiendo, rabia de que haviendo tenido impulsos de comprar, no llegó á lograr los impulsos; si van baxando, rabia de que, haviendo tenido amagos de vender, no se resolvió á gozar los amagos; si le dan algun consejo y acierta, rabia de que no se lo dieron antes; si yerra, rabia de que se lo dieron; con que todo son inquietudes, todo arrepentimientos, tododelirios, luchando siempre lo insufrible con lo feliz, lo indomito con lo tranquilo y lo rabioso con lo deleytable.

No the probabilities of the events could not possibly be priced in the charts. Only peoples perceived probabilities could be priced in. That is a massive difference. It may sometimes look like its priced in if the event in question is very predictable, or the reaction to the posdible outcomes is very predictable. There are quite a lot of examples where neither is predictable.

+1. All logical differences are big differences. TLDR: Predicting the future is hard.
