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

[BitcoinNewsMagazine]

Looking at weekly BBands it is easy to see if price breaks support at $3600 we are headed down to the weekly 20 MA at $3000. Last time the weekly 20 MA was tested it was a good time to buy.

Who sold at the bottom?

Come on, calling it so early? There's still a little way to go IMO.

BTW - I didn't. I spent a ridiculous amount of my fiat that was waiting for THE dip. Some more is waiting just in case this was just a pre-dip (not so ridiculously much though).

Many guys here want to buy more btc dip!
(i just sent a great amount to kraken, I will buy at every price below 3900USD)
the support is real, the society is using and accepting BTC and the crypto currencies!
everybody of us know it, the support is real and there is no bubble!

The users growing isn't linear

And this fact is reflecting in the price!
the growth is more than a linear curve!
be ready for at least 8kusd per btc in 2018

i'm thinking to , to buy some more but when ?? maybe little now and see what the price will do

My next(buy) order is @ 3000€

i mostly buy from friends directly or we play poker for btc i even never had put fiat on my account only played poker or buy from friends .... so for the moment no fiat on my exchange just waiting to call someone 

when i think back this was the most nice way to roll in this btc world ... playing poker for cash... and one asked to pay in btc @ that time the price was like 370 and what i won and get paid in BTC i just kept hodling because the guy convinced me not to sell it and we are still playing poker only not for cash only for BTC what a ride it is to now ....

i still just listen to him what to do cause for myself i don't know so much of it but learning every day

So bottom line would be "self regulation" ?
No more than a slap in the face, so far.

Hmm "strictly abide by laws by not participating in any centralized trading or provide services for this type of trading"
Seems to me as - close down on your own accord OR else

Everyone keeps saying bitcoin is a bubble but its outside forces that are hurting the price. Fake news at its strongest.

...I still am not going to give a whole hell-of-a lot of weight to how much emphasis you seem to be giving to lines on a chart.

Remember that "lines on a chart" are formed by traders, the most influential of which read charts. So it's a feedback loop which is why they have such an effect.

People who buy on fundamentals to long term invest are not usually daytrading so they only have a momentary effect on the market. Otherwise, the price is driven by the small amount of coin supply that sits on exchanges and gets traded (according to chart interpretations).

That's why they can be a mathematical "inevitability". If there's a significant crossover then traders sell - because they know that every other seasoned daytrader is reading that same signal and acting upon it. Doesn't matter about fundamentals because they get priced in long term.

Fair enough.

We each said our part, and surely the readings of some predictors, based on charts is better than others - and I have also seen historically that we have seen a lot of these kinds of predictions coming through this thread that have been wrong, too.

I am not changing my buy orders too much because I continue to perceive that we could have a reversal at any time.

Bear trap is slowly closing. Many thanks for the cheap coins!

[JayJuanGee]

I am not really worried but actually annoyed ...

The 5000 USD was within reach and now we are going slowly down and even crashed through the 4000 USD mark I didn't think would happen.

Every time we slowly move up again apparently some whale dumps because we then get one big red candle. This is going on for weeks now.

I think that it is way too fucking early to be panicking like that and making statements of frustration.

We have 5 weeks of green candles followed by one week of a red candle.  We are currently in the midst of a red weekly candle, o.k... so fucking what?  corrections happen, right?

Surely too early to figure out whether this week's candle is going to close as red or green - because it appears that the changing point is around $4250... This week's candle could close either red or green... both are within reach... seems to me.

Am I pie in the sky about a possible green candle for this week?  I doubt it, and even if this week is red, so fucking what, there could thereafter be decent chances for next week's candle to be green, no?  And, even if this week's candle and next week's candle is red, so fucking what (again)?   

I think that you are overstating the case - in your assertion "going on for weeks now?"  not even an accurate account of what has been "going on", seems to me.

No. It is always Bitcoin that moves first. Then shitcoins follow. Their move is sharper as their market is thinner giving wrong impression that they move first.

Had to sell a bit to cover Q3 taxes and equipment. I hate selling on a dip, drat....

A sign of being overly invested.. in other words, you do not have your expenses projected out on a long enough timeline in order to provide you a large enough float.. whether that float needs to be $1k or $10k or $20k is something for you to determine ( but seems like you don't quite have it down, yet). 

I tend to project my expenses out a minimum of 6 months and frequently into the 18months or more timeline... so a lillie dip like this (and only for about 2 weeks) has not been going on long enough to cause anything close to cash flow pressures - Sure, if it goes on for 6 months or it goes down another 50%, then that could be another story for me, and I would want to start adjusting now for what could happen 6 months from now so I am not selling at the bottom, if that were the case.
