310 in 1 hour or never.

Ha ha ha.

I went all-in a leveraged short at 308 several days ago. And watched it go up to 350. But my conviction that it will retract to 270 is rock solid. I simply know it. Call me Nostradamus.

If it goes above 370 I am wiped out. But I won't mind since its a small sum of money I am already determined to loose. I don't take bitcoin speculation seriously.

Be patient, gravity works all the time. Only thing that can bring it much higher is yet another pump. Large or small. And likelihood of another pump to 370+ is not small. But smaller than it going below 300.

Remember - bitcoin price doesn't reflect anything. Not yet. At the moment its just blowing in winds of speculation.

Wow...really? You will get wiped out...!

Bitcoin is for real traders not the fixed stock market naked short bs!

The pros are at the poker table and its game on...

Bitcoin is not for real traders, because its price can be manipulated severely (and easily) by a single person or a single pump&dump group. Therefore it is almost pointless to do any analysis and there is little or no added value for your time and work doing this analysis. You might as well hold forever or sell and never come back.

Maybe there is point in making automated fast trading mechanisms that will capitalize on short term price oscillations, but not things like long term technical analysis etc. Who are you kidding? That crap doesn't even work in stock market these days.

Why I know that its going to 270 is simply the fact that bubble hasn't deflated fully yet. You say "naive", I say "simple" lol

And I didn't need no "real trader voodoo" to figure out that it was a bubble. I know when I see one. And I was shorting all the way down from 500

You are clearly mistaken! TA can be used on any security...you just need to know what the composite operator uses!

I've been trading since the early 1990's...not my first day! Plus I'm inside the composite operators head!

You can bury your head in the sand but...

If there is no bubble by next week (when fiat starts flowing), then I most likely will be proven correct (as far as price going to 270).

Yes, but there may be some correctness from the bears, that we are going to get another test of $300 that may cause some temporary dipping below $300... ... but, it seems such a testing is going to have to happen before the end of the weekend... otherwise, probably the upward price direction continues... because currently, there seems to be some difficulties bringing the price below $320 for any extended period of time.

But what happens if Bitcoin hits $370 before it retraces down to the Monster Support level at around $270? And ya know what, take a look at the charts, it is much more likely to do just that, than to not do that.

I can honestly, say, that every single bad trade that I have made (and I have lost thousands on Bitcoin), would have been a winner had I just waited it out, and/or exited at the right time....but it is about what Bitcoin does in the meantime.

Yesterday, I did decide to go 'net short' as the market imo opinion did look more likely to retrace, than to break out.....and then the Stamp Whale splashing around triggering Stop buys, caused me to impulse reverse my position back to long, at yet further net losses. My initital resitance target was $315 (61.8% short term retrace from $300 - $346), and then if that fell, $280 (long term 61.8% retrace from $150 - $500). Right about now, we are dipped into and tested the intermediate terms 61.8% retracement (from $190 - $500), and if that holds, then a move up towards $370 is extremely likely, which will wipe you out, even if a couple of weeks after that we are right back down into what would have been your profit zone, had your position not been margin called....

......Seen this happen to me so many times, both on scales of momentous losses, and also on trades that would have been momentous wins, had I not been foolish enough to place a Stop Loss order, which gets triggered in my sleep, right before the market takes the tumble that I anticipated.

Bitcoin markets are crooked as fuck. You think there aren't whale entities with access to exchange order books? You think that the Venture Capitalists that fund the likes of Bitstamp don't have access to such privileged information when there is no regulation stating that they shouldnt? You think hackers haven't already obtained access to these kind of insider data streams for whale clients?

The big money knows where all the little money is placed, and knows how best to hoover up all the little money.

You do know there is a big difference between saying I'm a navy seal and a trader...?

Was I bragging because I said what I have done in the past...? Just stating facts sir!

You are a poser...go watch some fake seal videos on YouTube! Don Shipley is hilarious!

Gemini trades rolled back.  



https://np.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/3ss6kr/gemini_is_reversing_trades_wtf/

So those traders who sold at $2000 and thought Christmas had come early get screwed. If Gemini had a safety mechanism the error wouldn't have happened, It should compensate the traders who lost out. Bter has a warning box when you place an order with an excessive price. If Bter can do it, Gemini should have done it.

It goes to show, there really is zero reason to ever sit fiat on an exchange.

I was negatively affected by this trade reversal decision, and I think that it is really bullshit and unprofessional for them to authorize a reversal based merely on user error.

If they were to authorize such reversal based on a technical glitch or a hacker, that would probably be a more justifiable reason.  

I'm going to attempt to communicate with them about honoring my trade (even if they personally have to absorb the cost (mine had been filled and subsequently reversed at merely in the mid $370s... those fuckers), and if they do not side with me, then I am likely going to discontinue using their services and pull my bitcoins (and fiat) from their exchange.  

Again, this is really bullshit, and goes to show really bad judgement in their lack of credibility building foresight.

In the past 12 hours, I communicated with Gemini regarding my assessment of their decision to reverse trades, and I requested that at minimum they make me whole for such reversal and that they commit to changing their policy in such a way that in the future they are not going to reverse trades based on "customer error."   

I anticipate that most likely they will not comply with my request, and accordingly, absent some other materially relevant developments, I will need to remove all of my BTC from their exchange and to discontinue using their services. 

I would prefer to keep my account active with them, but if they do not commit to some form of non-reversals in the future (except for maybe in very extreme circumstances), then it seems too unreliable to continue to use their services. 

At this time, I have discontinued any attempted trades with them, except for a couple of real minor orders that had been outstanding still remain outstanding. and currently, I am thinking that I will give them a few days to respond to my earlier request before I take any further actions, such as removing my coins from their exchange.

I never doubted you were a seal, I too have caught around 300 fish this year and finished off one with my bear hands. On which subject you could get wiped out at 370 but by Christmas you should be able to close at 270 or even 230, Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming up and ordinary Joes will be cashing in a few of their precious coins to pay for the festivities, adding to supply. One thing Ive learnt watching this forum is never to say we will never see 450, 350, 250 again even at 220 we had a little panic and some lucky bastards with lowball bids picked up coins at 160 -180. Theres nothing worse than holding coins watching each gut wrenching step down to the next price band.  Of course I may be eating shit at Christmas while you all toast $600 with DP 2004 with Mr Rpietila.
