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

It is a bear trap.

Corrective wave on larger scale. Why? Elementary basics from here http://www.elliottwave.net/educational/basictenets/basics1.htm

See for yourself.

*Gulp*

Hmmh, the drop looks to have impulse structure, at least on Bitstamp. I could of course be wrong (and thus get bear trapped ), but imo this movement doesn't seem very corrective at all.

Aaaaand four hours of low volume melt-up wiped out.

4 hours? It was at $260 4 hours ago.

This dip barely touched $270.

Feeling bearish today?

Yes, for today. Tomorrow is another story.

Bet for 1 bitcoin? I'm sure we will not.

If you win this bet you will earn way more than if you lose because of btc prices in that case.

That only applies if we didn't experience a final bottom. your chart assumes its a bear market always.

That is NOT the short squeeze. It's the stutter step (the fake out) BEFORE the short squeeze. Volume tells the story. We're going to $350, but I dunno how far down we're going first.

Nobody is more aware than me how dangerous it is to be short right now, but we're still up over 27% in the last week and I think there will be more of a correction first. volume right now still shows more resistance than support.

I'm not even sure what pattern it is supposed to be but it looks really the same!

Also it is 6:50 am in China. Dump maystart anytime now. Fasten seat belt.

careful it is a3day chart by the look of it and the three days has not completed yet

Understandable.

I think we all knew there would be a profit-taking/retracement/beartrap/correction today after last night's shenanigans.

It's just a matter of how far. I'll stick with my call from last night (and reaffirmed this morning) and say that if we finish over $260 I'll consider the day to be a success.

The circle (ok elipse) on the left should be one peak farther left. This snapshot conveniently misses the volume. The volume of the crash to $275 followed by a lower volume peak, a lower volume dip and then the short squeeze. We've had the crash and the low volume peak on this cycle but not the high volume short squeeze (yet).

Let's quote this and see where price goes by the end of the week
Hope you're right! haha

[BlindMayorBitcorn]

I knew I should have sold and bought back lower. That pump was mental!

[LFC_Bitcoin]

So prepare for a slow grind down with a new low sometime in 2 to 3 weeks?

Should probably remove your begging bowl (sig) if BTC is such a joke

We're still over $20 up on finex. If the price moves like this every day for a couple of months I might upgrade my ride.

A very interesting day finally completed (UTC) and a good one

Lots of ups and downs for the traders and a good gain for the holders.

Was a bit confused, fucked up some little trades, but glad the pump came at last.
Prepare for moon (which we were promised)

Looks like we're going up.

I can't help but question the mentality of people who are selling under $300. Essentially BTC just got an official approval from US. Kinda hard to claim that an asset is a ponzi or a pyramid when it's licensed, trading in NY, and backed by NY stock exchange
