Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

Bearish engulfing candle on the 2 hour as just after it attempted this trend line.  6k in a couple days imo

1.  No one cares about the 2hr

2.  Don’t count your candles before they close

3.  A single candle means nothing without follow through.

Candle closed,  it's bearish

If you want long term indicators what about the 1 week RSI being at 77.5.  In the whole history of bitcoin it's never been that high without a major retrace.   6500 minimum.    As much as it looks buoyant right now that will not last too long.  It's massivly over brought based on lies atm

edit:  i meant over brought

Long range RSI was above 77 for most of the year prior to the December 2017 top. It was also above it back in June 2016 and in fact only dipped below 70 from July to October 2016.

It was at 90 when the bitcoin price was still below $1000.

Depends what chart range you look at. Quoting any indicator is meaningless without a qualifying chart range - it can show one trend at one range and a completely different value (and trend) at another.

Please stop talking shit


SInce 2011

Major downtrend??? you kidding right? the only downtrend is after the 2013 and 2017 highs all the ones before that are corrections. Corrections are normal and honestly what is needed at the moment.

semantics.  point is 6500 incoming at least.

toknormal could say the same about your response.

Look, I mean no offense here, but look at the chart first then make an opinion from that. Don't have an opinion first then match the chart to that opinion.

a correction to 6500 would be healthy.

on one day in the future you will be posting this and it will be only 1btc for that gold...

And then I will actually buy one as an ancient relic of the past.

Happy birthday LFC.

All I'm saying is that your "rule" is largely arbitrary and based on cherry picking ranges. The RSI itself retraces but not necessarily the price from the level it's at at the time. All depends on what happens next.

In February 2017 1-week RSI hit 90. There was no "major retrace" ever following that level other than a minor correction on the way to the moon.

In August 2017 RSI hit 89 with price around 2k. There was no "major retrace" ever following that level, in fact there was barely even a correction.

In October 2015 RSI hit 80 with price range 300-400. It retested the base of that range for a day or two and never saw that level ever again.

In 2013 just prior to the "Cyprus" spike, RSI reached NEARLY 100 in March with price rangebound at $48-$70 for the week. Apart from a momentary capitulation to $64, it traded above $80-$90 forever since then.

Not saying that we can't expect a correction from this rise - it's obvious that there has to be at some point.

[El duderino_]

its still quite in the media about this recent rise.

People are unaware about the recovery, we still have room to grow

In Belgium its different the oooh so F*** HLN newspaper that cannot be fast enough to write during a DIP...

Today one of the first articles

Ok, sorry, serious when next



??

[El duderino_]

Btw if some not follow collectibles, the 2009 times paper has a current bid of 6.25BTC

finish 20th of this month

fun to watch

Also some are speculating about how much it will be sold @..... any thought what you guys think the value of this piece could be?

When BTC hits 100K and more then this will be for sure the most expensive newspaper

The other one in august which is sandwiched between 2 other big drops 4880 to 3600 is still 20% drop.  It's only hits RSI over 70 due to its proximity to the other two peaks.

I worked out the percentage drops for you.   So at the very least we can expect  30% drop... so thats the 5800 range unless this is phase B of an elliot wave and then it's probable to go much lower.

And how many of those are downtrends rather than corrections? And for how many of them did the price drop instantly when the RSI hit 77? Technical indicators are just a derivative of price or volume. They are nothing special on their own.

I worked out cherrypicked the percentage drops for you.

FTFY.

You're confusing corrections in RSI with corrections in spot price. When the RSI hits the overbought region the price can keep on hiking for as long as it likes till there's a correction. However the base of the correction can quite easily occur ABOVE the point at which the RSI entered the overbought range. After a spell in the overbought region and a peak the RSI will generally decline to more "buyable" levels. But the price doesn't always correlate.

For example on the 3-day chart between the peaks in June 2017 and August 2017, RSI declined from 91 to 75 but price increased from $2800 to $4900. In fact by the time the price hit $5800 RSI was still at 68.

I told you it's semantics.  A percentage drop is what it is.  expect 6500 min very soon,  5800 highly likely and 4800 quite possible and a chance we haven't hit the low yet post 19k
