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

[goldkingcoiner]

The only way we are going to 1k is if we break through 2.7k And I do not see that happening. The last slide was motivated by the BCH fork. Always keep your eyes out for the bad/good news. Otherwise Bitcoin stays where it is.

Chosing a bottom is never an easy task


They all need to be tested

I can do all the testing!

He said, “You should outlaw [crypto assets],” because many have lost savings due to the significant slump in the crypto markets. “I am personally surprised that regulators haven’t stepped in harder.”

Yeah, ban things because people are being stupid. Good bye cars, internet, food, water, life.

No, no no, you miss the point...
On cars, internet, food and water, the government can sucker you with taxes; the money goes to them.

With crypto, they are just poor and not taxable, so they have to regulate it or they wont be able to get your money anymore...

Who is that?

Craig Wright in about 12 months time when he realises he’s broke & has to suck dick on the Vegas strip to make rent?

And yet penny stocks are allowed to live on decade after decade, scamming people with PnD's every day.  

What's with people like that making such asinine statements?

I was too stupid to sell when BTC went parabolic. I'm sure as hell too stupid to sell now. That's why I:

Galaxy S10 might ship with a secure cold crypto wallet for storing Bitcoin

How secure can it be when I throw my phone around all the time? Still haven't managed to break any of my Samsung phones (surprisingly), but if I had crypto on it I'd either get really stressed out or have to change my behaviour.

i'm never gonna store it on a phone... also i'm an iphone user
but its good for samsung to work with crypto etc

Me neither that is for sure, but I am a nerd who likes to sign his transactions on a braindead laptop.

A whole lot better for the masses though that would otherwise be 'storing' them on an exchange. But let's first wait for more details to come out before starting to celebrate.

The thing is this ship isn’t going down. It’s going to steady itsslf in 2019 & then get fitted with rocket fuel & wings before flying to the fucking moon.

All this considerations about selling now will be much more useful and reasonable to have during next bull run. Someone please remember me to sell some then.

haha i will remind you, but don't sell to much of your stash

its important not to get burned when there is panic, panicselling

but also don't burn yourself with selling to fast when we are in a BULLrun....

Nah, I am sure I won't sell MUCH. Just enough to don't feel (100%) stupid during the next bear market. 90% stupid would be fine.

Selling now is pointless for me, except from a trading point of view that I just don't see clear at all.

The first time I post here, look forward to comments from everyone.Thank you everyone for watching!

This is a bad first post, and you should feel bad for making it.

Bob...you have obviously been slacking on your training regimen. Must Rick be notified?

There is an excellent article which I read which explains why odds are stacked against shorts in the long run.  Shorting is always a short term play.  I am going to try to find it. 

hope you can find it, like to read it

 

I think that you're being emotional and shouldn't invest at all if you can't handle massive red candles. Selling now is like buying at >15k. Now is not the time to sell, but to keep cost averaging in.

There is no guarantee that bitcoin will really bounce back one day . I believe it will, but I am totally unqualified.

Putting more money is foolish, if you already put all the money you have reserved for high risk assets.

In past it bounced from much lower marketcap, much lower media attention, much lower infrastructure (exchanges, media, wallets, ATMs, stores that accept etc).

It's not certain that it will ever reach 10k again. I believe it will, as everyone here. But how much are you willing to bet that it will? That's he point.

If you already put all that money in that's on you for not keeping enough powder dry. But regardless of how much fiat you have available, selling after a ~90% drop is anything but sensible, especially when that's roughly been the turning point for most assets that plunged and didn't die. Market cap is irrelevant too by the way, at least in the peanut amounts that we are at right now. Apple is still 10x the size of Bitcoin. And that's just one company. Bitcoin is well positioned to become the backbone of future finance.

Just as you said that buying at 15k is stupid, in future selling at 3500 could be a great deal. What is it goes to 1500.? That's a 100 gain if I buy back.

The point is that we're already down 90% and the probability of going down further decreases exponentially as we go down. You're just falling victim to the gambler's fallacy right now.


Edit: What if it goes down to $1? It was $1 before, I could sell one Bitcoin and make 3500 Bitcoins! (fat chance)

Edit2: Invest some money in a book on investing and balancing portfolios. Read it, study it. Everything you post cements the fact that you're just gambling based on emotions. Emotions that traders use to take your money and make profits.

The point is that we're already down 90% and the probability of going down further decreases exponentially as we go down. You're just falling victim to the gambler's fallacy right now.

Agreed. It's an absolute classic noob move but it's also 100% understandable. It's how regular human minds work.

Unfortunately the people you're trading against know this and do not have regular human minds. 

Absolutely!
I could sell everything now & I’d still be massively up on what I originally invested. The thing is though, you just know if I do that the price will go to $6,000 or $7,000 & I’d end up buying back half the amount I currently own which would be fucking retarded.

This. If you want to sell you do it on the way up, not on the way down.

Ahhhhhhhh

Thank you millionaire, gentlemad and lfcbitcoin

I will hold this shit until it goes up. You are right.

Thanks

The trick is to decide on targets before the bull run happens, then sell no more and no less at every given price level. Cost average around your chosen price targets too if you want to get fancy.

Price is stagnating now... you guys see still a downtrend but we are approaching the end of the year.

Difficult to predict but I sniff a pump before the 31th December.

Pump ?


Or Dump?

Which one has the least resistance/support?

[wayna]

The more I look at graphs the more I think the bottom could be relatively close... 1 month of dumps without stopping and BTC futures starting somewhere before the half of 2019.

The next 2 months will be critical.

If price will stagnate further I will buy a bit at this price and then looking for the next dump, if that one will be the case.

The last year we saw an insane bull run before the end of the year and then a dramatic crash. Usually among holidays the price moves... since it has already lowered enough I would expect an uptrend unless this is just a transition year and no change of trends until first half of 2019

That's a great idea. Next time I fail on a prediction I will say the market is wrong, not me.
