Good Charlie 😄 My exit was 475.

Good time to get back in before the next rise.

^Hope. It's always the last to die.

"Hope springs eternal in the human beast" An essay on man!

It's rings true for everyone...Bulls bears and pigs!

[Hyperjacked]

I would like to tell you again, about how I sold my bitcoins for 450...and bought them back at 420.
Still grinning ear to ear after predicting that crash last night.

Yes sir! That was fun...

Cheers!

And china shit theirs pants It was foreseeable

Was it China? It looks to me like the heavy volume during the dump was on the USD exchanges (well, stamp and finex) - on the CNY exchanges volume didn't seem to change during the dump.

It's probably just Christmas. I've been waiting for the price to climb as high as it can before about the 20th so I can sell and use any realized profit for presents. I expect small batches of sell offs between now and the 24th on USD exchanges will continue to happen as people find things they want to give as gifts.

Christmas dont dump 80 000 BTC in 3 min.

Why not? Do you have any idea how much is spent on Christmas every year? U.S. shoppers spent $9.1 billion at stores on Black Friday.

First of all we are all following China and China doesn't give F*** about christmas. Secondly this swings are heavy manipulation of whales for sure. When some individuals cash out 10 BTC on different times on western exchanges it won't move the price and China man are happy to buy your western coins. We didn't see big movements on Black Friday also. It was just going up a bit and dump what everybody where afraid after never happened.
I don't think christmas will give any important effect on price.

Really? Oh, excuse me then. I didn't realize they did so much trading in the middle of the night. lol

Calculated risk vs Gambling...The difference is with gambling you have a high probability of losing!

So yes most the leveraged amateur traders are gambling because they don't know how to calculate risk!

Of course its a totally different story for those that make a living calculating risk!

I don't take pleasure in someone losing money...

someone wins and loses on every trade and it's my goal to be on the winning side most the time!

The whole unregulated markets thing is another debate...

Every night for Westerners 3AM-4AM CST (5-6PM Hong Kong Time (HKT) provides activity. If I were more efficient yet, I would've shorted the 375 exit. My short money was on a 385 exit. All the FIB lines pointed toward it. Now, when you get some skiddish bears with a monstrous pocket. It's like riding the tallest roller coaster in the world. My short standards were set too high I guess.

I can most certainly see this is the bottom though. Head and shoulders drop off line rejected. Willy says up. This was just a small correction in the rocket's course.

You're thinking sadism. Masochism is a different thing.

>someone wins and loses on every trade and it's my goal to be on the winning side most the time!
Someone wins and loses in every game of Three Card Monte. It ain't you, unless you're the guy with the cards.

>The whole unregulated markets thing is another debate...
Nah, lack of regulation means that exchanges (the ones who hold the cards) can do whatever they want. They don't even have to be good.

P.S. All gamblers are trying to 'make a living calculating risks.' Few of them do.

Next step is $500, what do you think ?
Is it possible?

I don't derive any enjoyment from ppl losing money...and certainly not myself!

Your arguments are weak...

Who do you think controls the stock market ? Not the retail investors...they are just pawns in the game!

[peonminer]

Which chart are you looking at? 1Day? That's not a giant cup and handle. That's a lopsided inverted head and shoulders, with the breakout confirming right now.





Looks like we have caught on to our moderate trending lines. This is a very bullish sign. Especially with the head and shoulders rejection in the 1min aspect.





It is two positive synergy signals. We will either converge over the weekend, or gorge out on some nom nom's heading upward much sooner.

I don't judge, bro.

Weakest argument ever.

It's a cat and mouse game between regulators and people finding ways to circumvent regulations. Been going on forever, both sides have great arsenals.
What you're seeing in BTC markets is, all of a sudden, the regulations are removed. And every scheme from the turn of the past century is suddenly new & fresh again, nothing to stop it.

That said, the retail [I'm guessing you mean 'small-time, Joe Average' investor is always at a disadvantage. That's why real markets have notions like 'accredited investor,' to save Joe Sixpack from his own ignorant greed, from having his ass handed to him.
This, BTW, is also the reason behind regulations against Three Card Monte games -- your Saurian Overlords don't want you to go broke 'calculating risks for a living,' & ending up on Welfare
