[BitcoinRate.com]

There will be one, just a lot of people with fear of missing the boat that are buying now.

The growth so far appears linear.  Wait until we go parabolic.

I do hope from time to time there are 60% retracements, so that BTC attract only true believers, speculators will definitely get shaked out by a 60% retracement and stay away

No, that will draw speculators like flies on shit.

It's easy to say than done, if price in a week dropped below $10, I'm sure the sentiment will totally be negative, you will see how many doomsayers there will be

Speculators can make money whether the price is going up or down.

Speculators mostly use TA, but none of TA can deal with a fast crash which break all the indicators in a very short time frame, either it is trend following based or momentum based/ swing trading. And from a risk management point of view, suddenly lose 60% of holding value is also not acceptable

fast crashes occur less and less often as the market matures

I have some "fiat" ready to buy me a new stack of BTC if THE price goes down ...

As long as we stay within this channel we'll keep going up, if it looks like breaking down out the bottom at any stage then I think you'll get your correction.

There will be corrections, as soon as doubt starts creeping in with enough people who've just gone long plus people who want to take profits, could easily snowball. I think would be shortlived though. Ultimately I think we are starting another mania like the 2011 one, which will go a lot higher this time. Won't be the last mania either. Only in my humble opinino, but what the f do u i know?

[kokojie]

It happened already, it shot up to nearly $22, then corrected to $18. There would be another correction coming if it shoots up to $27.50

So, bitpay receives 500,000 from investors and you think that they are the only ones receiving money here?
I'm sure those same investors invested another 500,000 OR way more in pure bit coin knowing that the BTC would move up... why wouldn't they?
Anyways, that's just a tiny piece of evidence, if you don't want to see what's obvious...

Entities investing $500K are not the same as the people who "have numbers to reach at the end of the month and profits to report". The former group of people are not constrained by any kind of pattern, so there is no reason to expect them to initiate a correction; some could be range traders, some could be long, etc. The latter usually prefer mature markets and don't get to experiment with pocket change; I don't see any evidence of such institutions having positions in BTC.

This IS the correction! from the drop to $2

I think in electronic trading era, flash crash like those happened in stock market may 2010 will become a norm, unless exchange have some daily range limit

It's coming...there is a whole lot of greed in the air around here

I think we touch $30 sometime this weekend, and drop back to $18-$20 range by Monday.

Maybe there is just way more demand then supply.  .!,!.   
                                                                           

[Merralea]

Well, right now it's...awe, never mind.

[SgtSpike]

Well, right now it's...awe, never mind.

Lol, +1.  I saw the dip down below $25, and thought, "hmmm... that's not gonna last judging by the last few days"

[DoomDumas]

+1, on a few month, log scale graphic, there is no bubble yet.. maybe if it goes to 40-50 too fast we'll see a bubble/correction, but not yet on my radar !

[justusranvier]

Has anyone else noticed that if you check the Fast Cash for Bitcoins thread it appears that Tangible Cryptography isn't have any trouble at all finding people who want to sell bitcoins, but in spite of that downward pressure the price is still going up?

[oakpacific]

No correction?



Did you see that skyrocketing, record-breaking volume daily red candle, in dollars? If that was not a correction, I don't know what is, and yet, it happened in the past month.
