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

[TheOtherCryptoball]

Weren't we just at 15000? These fake breakouts are playing havoc on my speculation senses.

I'm with Torque. I'm thinking things are going to be mostly sideways until mid January. Aiming for $20k USD by end of January.

I hope.

The price was going up too fast. We need some sideways movement to cool things down before the next big move up. This year's gains have been sustainable because of all the small corrections and periods of sideways movement. A few more sideways weeks is good.

I can live with sideways. Not sure what kind of memes we can make of that. But I'm willing to try.

Hi, new to the thread. Could you guys give me an opinion?

Have a little XRP, around 1k. What are you thoughts on moving to BTC now? Enjoying the BTC low and XRP high to try to buy it back later on?

Thanks!

Makes hardly no sense to be asking about what the fuck to do with your banker coin in this thread.


The vast majority of thread participants herein would have never bought such a stupid dumbass centralized manipulated coin, and even if they did, they would not have hung onto it nearly as long as you have, because it would have largely been considered to be like a hot potato.. so maybe you are trolling here, no?  There is only one fucking correct answer that you should expect, so why ask?

Sell the fucking thing. and/or get the fuck out of here.

"stupid dumbass centralized manipulated coin"

The biggest "stupid dumbass" I see is the one who believes there is any coin that isn't a shitcoin and/or a "centralized manipulated coin".

Dumbass.

Speak for yourself, silver, gold, pm pumper.      You are so dumb that you cannot even figure out how to find a proper thread for your posts.

One whale could literally crash this entire market with the click of a button, heck, i think most of the exchanges have been started by original whales....

There is absolutely zero retail demand for "Ripple".  No random joes off the street are opening Coinbase accounts to buy Ripple.

I see you can be right too at times. It's a good sign. Happy 2018!

im gonna laugh if coinbase adds it to the mix overnight with no warning like it did with
that btrash pump fiasco

Dunno!

ConBase just issued an "Error Resolution Notice"

Apparently "unauthorized transactions or other errors in payments using Coinbase’s services" are a thing.

Nice.

With this BTC drop, I'm considering it might be more prudent to postpone retirement until Q2 or Q3 2018  

((( They ))) ain't getting my coins cheap.

Fuckers.

Jimbo might have to postpone his trip to Mexico.

Fuck that.  No need to postpone because BTC prices are not too likely to go below $5k. 

You were talking about Q1 retirement since about $5k, and so we still have 2x to 3x greater prices, and therefore a cushion. 

If you have anywhere near 4 digits coins, then you can cash out little by little at any time, and you said that you already cashed out a bunch of litecoin, etc... This little blip should not cause any alterations in plans - if we go below $5k for any meaningful time, then I might take some of this back...   Go forth and Q1 it!!!!!

I am not postponing shit.  I still think that we are 3x to 4x above where any of us could have reasonably expected us to be within this same time period, even 6 months ago.... What is a little correction in the whole scheme of things?  We be lookin good, no?

At 19000 I could have retired. At 13000 I can't even buy a cat.

It's a nice touch that you cannot tell realr0ach != roach_lost.

This is worth the nested quote, which I hope you someday are able to understand and enjoy, "dumbass".

damn

we're almost down to the parabolic-er-er-er line set by the low on the 22nd

I guess parabolic-er-er-er-er is postponed for now

You mean our bitcoins are only worth what they were five days ago?

It's game over.

Re-testing December 5th levels.

Bitcorn is truly and surely dead this time.

I knew it was over when there was that news event and then that thing happened.

Who would want a cat, anyhow?  A cat will eat your corpse, but a dog, on the other hand, will be very sad upon your passing.

O.k.  Let me try to be somewhat serious here.

You should not be retiring on your bitcoin proceeds anyhow, unless you have a bit of a cushion. That cushion can be created by cashing out or just merely considering extreme downside possibilities.

Remember that we were $1k at the beginning of 2017, and yeah we could go back there, but it does not seem to fucking likely.  Therefore, extreme corrections are not too likely to bring us below $3k.  So these days, if you are planning to retire, in part, based on your bitcoin value appreciation, yet without diversifying out of it, then you gotta be prepared for $3k and therefore, still be comfortable measuring your BTC value at $3k per coin.  Personally, I am o.k. with that, and that is why I said that I am not postponing shit.. because I find it quite improbable that we are going to have any lengthy time below $3k, if at all.

So, I guess I am saying that we gots to keep in mind cushion when making these kinds of decisions.

I got carried away. Being rich was kind of a hoot.

Bitcoin goes down while the least suspected alts go up. What surprise? Start with FOMO, end with FUD, and repeat.
But really, the whole price psychology has little effect on hodlers who are in it because they believe in what it will become.  We're still in infancy I think where whales are able to move markets at whim. Competition will come and coins will eventually distribute. This is neither the last or the greatest bull run or bear market BTC will see before we arrive at adoption. I'm not even counting on a return to $'s but a value once the petrol dollar finally goes tits up and coin value is based on real world use.  That's the dream, right guyz?

People would not accept the program. Entire crops of bitcorn were lost.

[JayJuanGee]

Go forth and Q1 it!!!!!

 Oh I'm still planning on it, believe me.

 Just more irritated with all this holiday volatility.

 Makes me grumpy, damnit.

 If BTC drops below $10k by mid February 2018, I'll be really, REALLY FUCKING GRUMPY.

You gotta fix your grumpiness a bit, maybe cash out a bit of bitcoin will help?

Of course, I am largely a BTC HODLer and ACCUMULATor, so yeah, I am also much better off financially with higher BTC price - yet, it still seems quite normal that we are in a kind of correction that could possibly have another leg down, and such down legs are within normal BTC price movements. 

I personally think that further correction below $10k at this time is beyond expectations - yet we also know that there are peeps with a lot of finances out there who might be able to manipulate lower prices and to cause such extreme downward momentum in order to shake weak hands - does not seem unusual to me that we even have extremes that go beyond expectations.   but still remains a BTFD situation, whether it goes below $13k or $12k or $11k, $10k, $8k or $6k... ...

Of course, the further down, the more difficult it becomes to achieve absent some really decent FUD or actual catastrophe.

I will start to get anxious below $8k, and I am not even expecting below $11k at most in this particular correction... but what the fuuuuuuu do I know?
