If anyone needs something to do while waiting for shitcoins to implode to zero and for physical silver and gold to go up, I just released the mother of all content mods for the game Divinity Original Sin 2:

New poll time

For the last 30 days, BTC stuck in rather narrow 1k corridor:

6000-6500 it is.

Good of you to pick out the one that costs more than all the others put together !

That 3xxx nonsense is just wishful thinking by people who missed the boat (or panic sold at the bottom) and desperately want the price to go down.

Quoted for overweening arrogance. Please stand-by

Can I quote you?

Good morning Bitcoinland.

I see we had a bit of a dip, all the way down to where we were over a week ago...$6393USD/$8390CAD (Bitcoinaverage).

Why does this always seem (lately) to happen when I'm short on cash to buy more coins?

I can't bitch though. It's only money and I'm not impoverished quite yet.

maybe it doesn't go down to 3xxx levels after all

That 3xxx nonsense is something that you just can't dismiss outright. Sure we all want the price to go over the moon. Possibly even higher. But there's no denying we're in a strong bear market right now. There's every chance that it will go down.

Given 2014/15, there is a historical precedent.  I just hope if we are going that low, it's faster this time - grinding down and only hitting bottom in early 2019 would be tough.

Sooner, please.

Agreed. A sharp move down ( hopefully in the next couple of months) would be a good way to end this bear market. If it's sharp enough, I think it might bottom at 3.5-4k, but as you say, it's the slow grind down that is going to be worse, and get lower.

In stock trading parlance, we are on the 'slope of hope'. It can be a long one.

In my view, Bitcoin is time driven.  I’m looking for a bottom in Jan / Feb 2019. Not before. 

[Robin,Hood]

One thing is certain, the two lines will meet again.
Either red line moving up, which would be a slow tortuous process, or orange line goes for a quick kiss and meet, or a combo of the two.
Take your pick

[Phil_S]

Linear? Really? Come on.

why do you think the growth is linear? here is a curve I have created. This curve is very primitive of course (I spent 2 min. for it) but it is very clear that the increase of the price is not linear.

by the wayr^2=0.886, which means the prediction model is 88% accurate.

I did not say growth is linear.
I am willing to take any bet that at some stage the two lines will touch again.

Which means this bear market will match the last, which in my heart of hearts I always expected.  I did cash out enough in December to have no regrets, I reasoned that I knew I'd regret it if I didn't and we were in 2013 all over again.  

I wish we weren't watching history repeat itself again, mind you.  Barring a real Bitcoin ETF or some macro event /crisis that points wealth en masse towards crypto, I do think we have a long grind to endure, but hope springs eternal.

That's what I meant. Inb4, I don't want to rush touchy badgers, but please.

Help me out here, I've missed something.
If that curve is maintained and roughly predicts future price, BTC is never hitting $20k again.
If not, it's inaccurate right now and so no good at predicting future price anyway.
