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

[HairyMaclairy]

Back to Bitcoin.  It seems we have missed the usual Saturday night dump or that buying below $9k was too aggressive for it take hold.  

Mem pool size has stopped falling and has stayed roughly the same for the past 24 hours.

Both bullish signals.

I dont think being happy about a drop means being happy about people losing money. Its more about making money/coins yourself, trading in high volume, personal emotions over missing the train, getting your coins back, being right about your predictions, and seeing bitcoin become stable and fungible again. After all, you did give these noobs fair warning that the drop was coming, and they went against your advice or insulted you even. I mainly like the fact that a drop is generally a high volume trading day where I can make lots of profit quickly. Its also a point where I can rebuy and get off of exchanges and take a break. I have to admit I also like when people who buy into mass hysteria have to realize that the crowds were wrong and they shouldnt be so social into a hive mind that they do stupid things in life. I wish they didnt have to lose money and be personally affected by it - I just like them having to admit they were wrong. Also they dont really lose until they sell.. If they lost it means they both made a shitty buy and a shitty sell showing they knowthing about bitcoin and dont believe in it.

I don't understand why it should make secure adult to feel good about "being right" about the price direction of bitcoin or its dynamics?  Or I don't know why there should be any goals to get quasi-anonymous folks on the interwebs to follow your advices?  

Yeah, there is nothing wrong with sharing information, technical analysis and even having an approach that differs from others, but surely, it would come off as a lot more genuine and less patronizing if there is a sense of a brainstorming session rather than attempt to preach ongoing doom and gloom that frequently comes off as a kind of book talking - even while you deny such book talking and propound contradicting talking points.

Do you at least agree that there are going to be a variety of strategies, and many strategies involve little to no trading, even if they have pretty decent clues (and maybe agree with you that the BTC price is likely to crash. but they still do not plan to alter their HODL - and perhaps accumulate if they are more sophisticated, strategy).

I do not preach doom and gloom. I called a correction to 8K and maybe 5.5K followed by a recovery. These are not dooms and glooms. These are insanely high numbers based on the price 2 years ago. These are 700% and 500% above ATH, respectively. If btc is at 5.5K or 8K then it is doing fantastic. And then on top of that I say it should bounce and go even higher.

A long term hodler shouldnt care about the monthly price fluctuations. For them they value their wealth in coins and the end game is using btc as the world currency or whatever at the price of $1M+. So this trading shouldnt affect them. They only lose if they sell.

I'm going to get a pair of guns and name them Doom and Gloom.

I will concede that I am being a bit repetitive with my harping on you, but I am not going to give up.  Furthermore, you totally skipped over my starting point which is criticizing you for you seeming desire to "be right."

Regarding your anticipated guns purchases and namings, I think that is a decent idea.  So instead of preaching doom and gloom, you can shoot doom and gloom - hopefully carry out such shooting at shooting range or at ground hogs or some legitimate nuisance target, not at peeps, even if peeps don't agree with some of your supposed "good intentions" and seemingly exaggerated benevolences.

I think Tera would be one of the safer ones with firearms in this thread.

This is a good sign.

  canda is now nothing to compare to new "east europe"  canada and collapse capitalism is on show-like when you go to doctor in canada.. LOL
you will die !! in canada. only special small % of population have free health "insurance"(4% of population) ..but nothing to compare to on east on germans boarders.. germans are cucked too..))
why canda allow drugs.? becouse when you later ask candian state about help.. they will say you: you was on drugs or others..and you have not right on full health insurance..(you do bad things to your health and but canada gov allow it..paradox).. sooo they cuck with you and you can not ask for health insurance.. even you was not in jail , or never crime...
soo if you smoke in canada.. later they will kill you ..peacefully like "democrats"
why you hell think people like jumbo put all on bitcoin?! becouse its soo bad life in canada and people gamble,,,they dont care..death in canada or better life in '"no democratis countries" like mexico ...

You have zero clue about Canada you dummy.  Germany?  Lol, we'll see how Germany is in a few years from now, thanks to Merkel.

Wow, you speled that rong!

Universal Sickness Care - and it ain't exactly FREE.  Big Pharma do not want you healthy.  Dental is not covered, along with a lot else.  And good luck getting to see a doctor or specialist without a massive wait.  That's why people here go elsewhere if they can afford it.  Be your own Bank.  Be your own Doctor.  NOBODY else has your best interests at heart.

Dental isnt covered unfortunately but if you take care of your teeth you will be good.  Needing serious medical coverage is a much more random and expensive event than dental.

I saw a doctor yesterday.  Walked right into one of the many "walk-in clinics" scattered everywhere and within 10 minutes I was seeing one, for free.

The specialist I saw twice in 2017 wont fucking leave me alone, keeps calling me for follow ups.

Dont believe any of the BS they feed you south of the border.  There is a reason the rest of the developed world has universal healthcare: it works.  It isnt perfect but for the vast majority of people its the best solution.  If a Canadian desires they can obtain private healthcare, one can even go to the US and 80-90% of it is covered by insurance.

Slightly off topic but still.. I'm not German. But I have to ask... WTF is wrong with Merkel? A civilised answer backed with facts please. You never know... I might agree if the evidence is there.

[JayJuanGee]

I think Tera would be one of the safer ones with firearms in this thread.

That could be an interesting ranking of posters likely to "go off." 

She does seem to have pretty decent ability to control her emotions, but she is also a bit passive aggressive too, so with a gun, who knows what she might do?      maybe just hold us up, and then tickle us with feathers until we kiss her feet, perhaps?

Why don't you say what the fuck you are talking about, rather than putting the burden on others to answer and provide "evidence"?

She is literally insane.

More precisely, she has a r-psychology. Meaning she is a narcissist and high on political power, which is apparently more addictive than cocaine.

Sadly, i can attest to this. Stayed in a "free" hospital last year for a week (after i have checked out on "on your own risk"), before they would have actually killed me with misaligned medicine - a dose of glycocortisole 2.5x more than the max my body weight should have allowed - 0.7mg/kg-1.0mg/kg is the "normal" dose - , which i have learned through my smartphone while literally spinning in my bad and bleeding through my sheets due to the waaaay overdosed drugs...and when asked the nurse about "is this infusion really necessary, i have already got one in the morning, she had to check the sheets and said, oh well, no,  you are right.."
Socialized medicine=DEATH; no incentive to do good=no fucks given. 5 of us was in the room, and we were actually browsing med sites; we had to protest against meds cause those were obviously detrimental due to sites like Myo clinics and other sources. One dude had to show pictures from google about his skin leasons to the doctor to prove he does not have "aids", and after 3 days of steroids he was healed...

Free healthcare is a joke. Just as anything "free". Competent people work for profit, obviously.

Do you think Canada's health care providers work for free?  Our doctors dont make as much as they do in the US but they still make great money, 7x what the median employed Canadian makes.  Its also FAR less of a financial cost to become a doctor here vs the US.

Are you suggesting a new poll after February 14?!

And you think this applies to Merkel more than it applies to Trump?   The man who says he has a bigger nuclear button than Kim Il Jong?

The real news, Wall Street 1929 crash incoming, HODL your Bitcoin and get some popcorn 

You think this is just the beginning of a down spiral?

*puts tinfoil hat on*

What if the wall street boys knew this was coming and decided to get some cheap bitcoins before the crash.
It would make sense that Bitcoin goes to the moon when Wall Street crashes, we have seen it many times before, in times of turmoil people tend to go towards Bitcoin. In 2017, BTC was in high demand in Zimbabwe, Venezuela and South Korea. All of them had some form of financial tensions.

Well, in that case, USA should be going nutz over BTC

As well as the rest of North America
South America
Europe
Asia
Africa

BTC

Trump is a K, and a rare type at that. He understands how rabbits think and knows how to handle them.

Seems like a much more sophisticated and problematic poll to be ranking our perception of the mental stability of WO thread participants, and likely a bit off topic, too.. you know, delving into an area of possible entertaining ad hominem.. rather than bitcoin price/wall substantive....

You forgot your doom and gloom tags for the weapons, and furthermore, don't we need a chick in the pic?

You know what's weird is when I came here 5 years ago we were doing the same thing and having the exact same conversations, except the price was 200 times lower. Bitcoin wasn't even known about - it was a nothing. Now magically it has manifested itself into a thing while we all just stayed here and did nothing and shot the shit. But we fully expected this and we all knew almost 100% that the next rally was coming, and then the next, and then the next. It's like we're a bunch of entitled cunts.

I look forward to shooting the shit with all of you entitled cunts when Bitcoin is $1 million in 2025.  Assuming you have not yet overdosed on whiskey and valium.
