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

[serveria.com]

my theory is this: until halving in May 2020 volume on marketplaces will decline because miners and others will hold back their BTC and plan to sell it after halving. they are speculating the price will increase after halving.

so low volume is not good for markets because then markets are easier to manipulate by big fishes.

any thoughts on this?

Yes but what whale in his right mind will sell big q-ties before the halving? You need to be an epic retard to do it. The price will also inevitably go down AFTER the halving so why someone would just swim against the tide additionally risking being rekt? 

Why inevitably to go down after the halving, please do explain 

Cool off as always (previous cycles), miners will have to sell the coins they accumulated before the halving sooner or later they need to pay their operating costs.

because for someone who will buy cheap before the halving price is to damn high. so he tries to bring the price down and buy cheaper back afterwards. no?

EDIT: and if less volume much better for him. i bet on boring times until May/June 2020.

Ouch. Very ouch

the price will increase after the next halving if the demand will be on the same level as before the halving. it is the law of demand and supply in every market. period.

if I want to buy cheap before the halving I would do the following:

first, spread as much untrue stories about the halving as you can (e.g. the halving is priced in and so on).

second, I would try to dump the market if the volume is very low through margin trading (FIAT) especially on weekends when professional market participants do not trade.

third, after a successful dump (we had it at least twice the last days) I would buy back slowly physical BTC in small amounts to avoid a pump of the market (we had it if the price jumps above 10k the second time).

so expect slow and steady increasing of the price and unexpected dumps afterwards. rinse and repeat and watch the noobs crying in social media if they sold at the bottom.

Everything looks good ... However the market is unpredictable despite ... for now the best thing is Hodl whatever happens.

On the fundamental side of things, there is a confluence of geopolitical and macroeconomic factors that could help push the price of BTC higher. These include but are not limited to the impending block reward halving, the lowering of interest rates by central banks, potential volatility in the equities markets, and trade tensions between nations.

I'm also a bit oldfashioned but you might have missed that metrosexual is not a thing anymore, in fact since about ten years or so.  

Jesus, you're right, it was ten years ago! Time fucking flies.

I remember in 2010 being disappointed that we hadn't found any monoliths yet, and we still haven't found a single one.


ITS OVER 9600!!!

I thank my lucky stars every day that I have never been in that position. I'd probably end up killing myself.

On one hand, you're definitely a man with primitive instincts. On the other hand, there's probably some truth to those words.


I'm thinking BCH might make a good shorting opportunity in the near future. But like all things its price is largely correlated with BTC.
