This isn’t the first time China is banning exchanges. Back in 2013, bitcoin dropped more than 50 percent as the government asked BTCChina to stop accepting deposits in Chinese yuan. The government changed its mind later on. Do you thing something like that can happen now?
No. China is far less important for Bitcoin now than it was back in 2013.

No, my claim is that fees are ~1000x more on a Bitcoin Segwit transaction as compared to a Bitcoin Cash transaction.
There are more than 900 altcoins and their tx fees are 1000x less compared to a Bitcoin tx fee. Are they better money than Bitcoin? What's your point, dumby? My point is that Paashaas' characterization of my position was inaccurate and misleading. So I corrected him/her. My correction thereof is what you quoted above. What is it that compels you to wade in with guns blazing.... dumby?

Hi,
I am an absolute newby to this forum, this is my first post. On the other hand, I have been trading financial assets for quite some time.
I expected today's BTC dip, whatever the supposed reason for it would come out to be (i.e. fake news from China) on the basis of :
1. a simple analysis of trading volumes analyzed on various time frames
2. the application of Fibonacci retracement levels to the previous leg up
3. the application of Eliot's wave count to the previous leg up (impulse wave) and to the current leg down (correction wave)
Technical analysis is not science and its various tools are not always churning out foolproof answers. Some tools work better ( = more often and on more type of financial assets) than others, but even those can fail ( = give false signals). In my experience, Eliot and Fibonacci have the best predictive power because they are not based on averages of past datas but on eternal or, at least, recurrent human behavioural patterns.
This said, I put out my 5 cents of wisdom to say that the market will find its way to correct lower before it resumes its way up. I have set a number of buying orders at decreasing price levels between 4000 and 3000 USD so, to put my mouth where my money is, this is what I can recommend to others as well.
Good trades everybody !
Sure your post sounds reasonable newbie; however, you need to account for s-curve adoption, metcalfe networking principles and that bitcoin is an immature technology that is also going through fundamental extreme attacks and even weirdness in the cryptospace on a broader level with a variety of random and extreme performances of ICOs and alt coins, and that is where the fucktard over reliance on technical analysis frequently screws up with their assertions about supposed inevitable needs for correction in a kind of false equivalency about bitcoin being a supposed mature market. Sure you could be correct this time (a stopped clock is correct twice a day), but please present your technical analysis with a bit more grains of salt and accounting for both the immature price finding aspect of bitcoin and the s-curve analysis which are important factors to not leave out when you are arriving at your supposed "reasonable" technical analysis conclusions and advices.

AGAIN only FOOOLS would sell now what kind of idiot is sitting now behind his pc pushing the buttons to sell BTC The Chinese pop and mom investors... . It is weekend after all. Bitcoin will be an export product only, in exchange for dollars coming into China, yuan going out of China is what cannot happen. And for the internal Chinese market there will be BCC.

It is just time for a deeper correction, nothing more.
I beg to differ. It had already corrected. I think today's dip can be directly attributed to news of China announcing a clampdown on exchanges. This is a similar situation to last January when the natural correction after breaking $1k was immediately followed by The PBoC announcing an investigation of the exchanges, causing a panic. After a short recovery, the PBoc started visiting the exchanges and then froze btc withdrawals causing another panic. This time the natural correction after passing $5k was immediately followed by the PBoC outlawing ICOs, causing a panic. After a short recovery, the news of yet another Chinese action against the exchanges caused another panic. We all know what happened to the price after January's panic subsided. Didn't we learn that China's importance in Bitcoin was over-rated? This too will pass. so you think no bigger dive for this time ?? just bought few coins like 1 hour before the dip Sell everything micgoosens!!!!!!!!

Don't be bamboozled by fake news and play into their hands. It is very likely that we will recover very quickly as it is oversold. Just as someone would have to be a retard to buy right now, the risk by far outweighs the profit potential
So, people buying bitcoins on every dip during last 8 years are retards... Are you retarded? You need not ask questions to which the obvious answer is yes.

AGAIN only FOOOLS would sell now what kind of idiot is sitting now behind his pc pushing the buttons to sell BTC Just as someone would have to be a retard to buy right now, the risk by far outweighs the profit potential What do you know? These things reverse all the time, and no one can really time the bottom very well.... so there can be reasons to buy right now, especially if you already sold higher. Also, if you are not in bitcoin at all and you are just learning about it, you may want to buy some at this price. There is no one size fits all and the extent to which someone buys at this particular price point may well depend on a variety of factors and even account for possibly that the odds of the price going down could be better than the price going up - but that does not mean that someone blanketly sits and waits, because sometimes the odds end up going in the less likely direction... ever heard of that in bitcoinlandia?
