Money money mooooneyyy mooooooooooooneyyyaayaya

bwhahaha, you mathafuckaaaa have you already cashed out that nuts long??!

Nope. Keep the green dildo going, boys.

Can you continue to change the "stop loss" price point and keep the long open?  

Under current conditions, that could be the smartest move, just to keep the long open and to keep moving the stop loss point up as the BTC price moves up, until at some point you will get stopped out, but hopefully not getting stopped out too soon and we have a bit more upwards from this point, just for "fun"...  (wishful thinking, perhaps?)

[edited out]

JFC! At least raise the stop tightly motherfucker! And good luck!

Thank you! Of course I raised the stop. Just below the golden ratio

Oh you already answered my question, except raised a new point.  What is "the golden ratio?"

[JayJuanGee]

Congrats! I assume most of your increase came from trading the downtrend rather than new money?

So I will stay out of the market chop for the next 8 months, because I will just get chopped up.

hahahahahaha

I don't believe you.

I remember you made a very similar statement before, so I understand that BTC price dynamics can cause you to reconsider your earlier statement(s), so why should this time be different?

Trailing stops. Many exchanges have them.
They usually command higher fees, but they are handy in circumstances like these.

I am using in addition to other patterns and indicators, fibonacci retracement to predict the short term support levels. The likelihood of the price bouncing off the golden ratio (~1.618...) is the highest. I have found symmetry patterns to be extremely useful in trading.



The golden ratio is a fundamental characteristic of the universe. It has been mathematically proven to exist everywhere in nature.

Am I asking what "google"  says?

Yes, bitcoin's price has a habit of filling gaps and this seems no different. It would not indicate a V-bottom reversal to me unless it cracked above the descending triangle's floor at ~5700.

That would be a strong indication, but time is a more important variable than price IMO.

The low will only be confirmed to be in the rear-view mirror when price has held at least 50 % above the low point (lets say that is around $5k) for several months.
That point will be the safest area to buy .

It is risky to anticipate it, because a subsequent drop to a new low can wipe out a lot of capital .

The % rise from a lower low would more often give a greater profit than the missed potential of waiting for confirmation.

Drip-feeding in would mitigate the effect, of course.

[goldkingcoiner]

As I see it, in the next hours either we pass 3732 and hit the 3835 ceiling. OR we dip to 3594-3565

[Majormax]

Aren't you worried about how long you will live?

If you're a purple bloated leaking gasbag with millipedes crawling out your eye sockets then you tend not to worry about such things any more.

Anyway I remember you offering Rpietlia some health advice once upon a time and look what happened to him.

I think Rpietlia didn't need physical health advice. His reactions to events just seemed to follow a bipolar schedule.

Yes the real challenge is breaking the yellow bear line which is currently sitting around 5K

[goldkingcoiner]

Yes the real challenge is breaking the yellow bear line

Seems very doable by january

[HairyMaclairy]

We didn’t break it until October 2015 (equivalent of October 2019) last time around.  Breaking it marked the very start of what became the 2017 bull market.  


The current bear line will be at $1,500 in October 2019 which is a reason for us to still be very careful and not get too excited in December 2018.  

Of course breaking it early (January 2019) would be very bullish.  

[goldkingcoiner]

Certainly dumping back to 1-2k would set bitcoin back for a year... But I think there would have to be huge fud to trigger such an event. Bear whales have got to be exhausted at this point...

I'm having a hard time believing the next bull run is going to follow the 2015-2017 cycle. The shorters and panic sellers did a good job of painting the charts to match the last draw down (human nature to find repeating patterns) but I don't think they're going to have as much control over the next rise. The dynamics are different now. When people see the price rise, they're going to think it's 2017 again, not 2015.

If the shorters think this will be the same as 2015, there's a good chance they give their BTC profits back and further fuel the price on the way up.
