no i'm buying now.

Why buy now?

What happens if Bitcoin breaks below the longterm Jan 2013 support trendline on strong volume?

Also, you always seem to be buying. Never selling. Where do you get the fiat from?



buying now because, good price.

since virtex lowered their fees i've been trading more, been doing good, not crazy amounts few 100-1K$ bets is all.

How much fees reduced by virtex, did not login there since long time.

starts at 0.75% pre trade now.

I thought they reduced to below 0.5%.

I... dont think I understand..

In order to "convert to fiat" you have to sell... this would very obviously reduce the price.

Alright. So when FBI sell seized btc, the price will go down?

a) The coins being sold this week aren't actually all that numerous.
b) The seizure of the coins resulted in a price drop that took into account the eventual sale long ago.  This negative price pressure will be removed once the sale is complete.
c) The buyer is unlikely to sell the purchased BTC for at least a year to ensure qualification for the lower long-term capital gains rate.  Depending on the buyer, they may have no intention of selling at all, ever.

The net sum of these is a bullish outlook after the coins have been sold this week at auction.

Possibly Tera means that there is finally a green 1wk macd candle on Bitstamp. It was sort of confirmed with high volume. It is barely lit  Smiley It could be positive if we are dealing with macd obsessed whale Smiley Long time ago I remember Tera said that a green 1 wk macd could indicate that it is a good time to buy (or maybe build on a position?). I can't tell if that was a joke or not. Tera likes to be a bit cryptic sometimes.

The best oracles are that way Smiley. Although 1w MACD on Bitstamp not confirmed yet, just one green candle, which can still change. Their weeks ends Wed, iirc

Heh I think it was my site that got some interest... maybe someone with some sense decided to buy some real cheap. I think they want it to stay up otherwise they would just put up a big buy order.. but they are buying at market so there is some urgency to their plans.

If the auction site picks up then we may have the ability to bid up the market ourselves with the profit it brings in.

Why buy now?

What happens if Bitcoin breaks below the longterm Jan 2013 support trendline on strong volume?

Also, you always seem to be buying. Never selling. Where do you get the fiat from?



MatTheCat:  The bolded part of your above statement is somewhat funny.. I was beginning to think the same about ADam.. that with him it is just buy, buy, buy and HODL, HODL, HODL... but he has made some sell, sell, sell statements, from time to time - though you never know for sure whether he is joking.


Your statement about Getting fiat is interesting too.  Unless, you are  very young, the longer you have been around the block, the more likely it is that you have more and more items that are invested in fiat and income streams around such fiat systems.  I have always had a considerable portion of my income dedicated to reinvesting with hopes that the reinvested money is earning interest and compounding over the years. 

Certainly, I could have been better about my various investments and even if I had found out about bitcoin earlier, that would have been better, but I tend to live well within my means and to invest in "safe" things, such as index funds.  With that I have built up a pretty decent cushion of fiat centric investments over the years.

Ever since I learned about the intricacies of BTC (only since November), I have been reconsidering my overall investment distributions. 

In recent times, also, I have been considering whether it would be feasible and/or reasonable to remove some of my fiat from my various more liquid investments, such as stock investments and to put that money into BTC.   Other investments that I have are NOT very liquid.  However, if I took some of my liquid investments, that would definitely multiply my BTC holdings - however, then the proportion of my investment into BTC would be really skewed towards BTC - and probably a lot more volatile and risky.

I tend to believe that when the BTC prices go skyrocketing upward, I will likely be saying to myself, "I should have.... ", yet one of the downsides of diversified and safer investing strategies is to NOT have all of one's eggs in one kind of basket... even though, frequently, there will be second and third thoughts about such strategies after the fact (Monday morning quarterbacking).
