Good morning Bitcoinland.

Still going sideways... currently $9032USD/$11670CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Yawn.

It's still too damn cold to use the pool.

At least there is no snow here.

So that's nice.

It snowed in Toronto last might. Looked like a Xmas card.

This time tomorrow I'll be back in Mexico. Hopefully there'll be no snow there.

Are you raiding the local ATM?

If you check the daily chart and switch on 200 ema/sma you'll see this is the spot bulls and bears are fighting hard for right now.
Very important level where we are located at the moment. Who ever wins this will decide where we are heading to the next couple of weeks.

Indeed the skirmish is turning into a long, soft battle fought on medium volume. The battleground hasn't moved at all, 9200-ish excluding 24h-48h fluctuations - that's "mammoths" in DETASO (d_eddie technical analysis, sort of).

The situation is liquid IMHO. I smell longer plays developing. I mean medium term, not "the future of bitcoin." At the moment, I feel I can expect to have no clue where the ball is until the end of March, with an important checkpoint tomorrow.

The best I can think now is HODL.

Second best, hedge with a safety net bet. Similar to a safety play in bridge, giving up some of the best case gains to achieve mitigation (or reversal!) of the worst case. It will be a loss, except if an unexpected black swan disaster comes around. Then it will be a big winning asset.

The bet would be a small but significant short position, with as high as possible an entry point. Looks like a contrarian move à la Tera-Beara, but actually if not done near the external stratosphere, in Carolina's orbit, it makes little sense (and possibly big damage). Hold the short to < 7k, maybe even 5.5k-6k. Don't close it too soon. If it turns into a losing nightmare, keep swallowing until it reaches a pre-set limit. Decide how much pain you're willing to swallow. Work out the limit now, before Carolina, unless you know you can keep a cool mind.

(I feel like mastereddie! Sorry for raving.)

EDIT -Some of you expert line-drawing types can suggest an appropriately high entry? 11.5k maybe?

oy are things going to get ugly https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-017-0001-5 A combined analysis of genetically correlated traits identifies 187 loci and a role for neurogenesis and myelination in intelligence

Why would they?
Interesting paper, though, thanks.
Incidentally, myelination was always going to be a factor since we know that in rare diseases where myelination is negatively affected (Tay-Sachs, Gaucher, Neimann-Pick) the result is always mental retardation.

Its published in “Molecular Psychiatry”.  The name of that publication gives you an indication of the editors’ inherent biases.  

I skimmed the paper. I am not a statistician but their methodology looks riddled with correlation errors.  Looks more like phrenology to me.

To be truly effective, all these efforts require close international cooperation. Since crypto-assets know no borders, the framework to regulate them must be global as well.

They are screwed.
