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

[TERA]

Tera: "if 2900 then horrible disaster blah going down blah blah end of Bitcoin".

Yaaawn
You missed the train again. Get over it and learn from your mistakes for once. It's the same shit every single time. Don't you see a pattern here?

I did not miss the train... I covered at 340, bought at 420, and added at 470. Currently I am 60% btc if you count cold storage and will be adding more on a 3 day macd cross.

I have never said "the end of bitcoin".

shooting up now!

I thought silk road was closed?

[Dr. LY]

Back in. I'm ready to see some rockets.

Then everyone said if it broke 400 we were screwed and there was NO good news from China at all so I sold at 399.

unfortunately a lot of people lose btc by trying to gauge sentiment here before realising most posts are just random gibberish and those that post those things usually don't believe it themselves.

you've taken a hit but you'll recover, just remember to only trade with a portion of your btc (or just hold) so you can be patient and not freak out at sudden movements.

Now, show me a post by a hero member saying he is shorting. Find someone? No one. The ones who did in the past (Moonshadow and his shorting during 2011 comes to mind) admitted they faced such losses they will never short BTC again.

... yeah. Bitcoin has ended the trading days of many, it is market like none other. I just can't fathom how people can expect to master this beast enough to short ... I guess there's always some foolhardy cowboys ready to saddle up the wildest of animals.

Just buy as cheap as possible and be thankful you got in when you did.

[TERA]

I think I'm going to do my first ever ignore on here and ignore ShroomsKit. I have said in the past I would never do one at all.  But it is so annoying every time I make a post he says something about my position. He can't get it through his head that I make posts to be social and it has nothing to do with my position and I don't even believe I have the ability to effect this market at all.  I have told him about it several times.

(...)
LET'S GIVE PROBABILITIES TO THE FOLLOWING EVENTS
(...)
d) In 2014, price will visit below 400 = 80%
e) In 2014, price will visit above 500 = 30%
f) In 2014, price will visit above 750 = 5%
(...)

Well, I think somebody will just prove their deep lack of understanding of economics and human psychology in the next few weeks/months/years.

I for one going to keep the above quotes on hand.

There were a lot of fancy charts and lines and people with autistic math friends

I've learned my lesson.

Now walk away and come back in a year or two.
The speculating over the long term is always the best way with a very volatile currency/stock.

I'm partly telling myself here since while chasing the *bottom* I missed the actual bottom and have subsequently lost all the hard-fought gains I made in the last couple of months *sigh*
Also I bought in back in December/January.... well above $700 lol

I have to back TERA a bit here. Everyones so quick to jump on her back at everything she says yet is one of the few posters who make real predictions and tell your their moves and positions in real time. I personally want to say thanks for the intersting material as it is far more insightful than just saying 'sheep' to everything.

Good luck this round. I hope you make your money back.

Main thing I've learned: the pain of watching it rise while out of it was far, far, far worse than watching it sink while holding.

Think I'm joining you though he might have already ignored me for quoting someone he didn't like weeks ago.
He will be joining 2 other people including mah87 so he can join the trolls he is fond of complaining about lol

Smug disdain for those less fortunate is never nice.

TERA always has valid argument and graces the forum with balance. too bad he's not a bull though   shroomskit just wanna be loved.

Is he a she? I had no idea. Not that it matters.

[JayJuanGee]

Tera: OK, you have your models, and I have mine. I just laughed when I accidentally found your bullish predictions from 11.Feb, and my refutation of it, of which the latter became true.

The real problem is the lack of framework, imo. To be held accountable in one's predictions, one would need to have a system in place for forecasts, timing, probabilities, buy/sell signals, and to monitor their accuracy. Just waving hands and writing unsystematized stuff in threads does not count. My adhoc query about the percentage probabilities for the remainder of 2014 was a humble attempt to get this a little more accountable.

But of course I realize that most posters don't want it, because it would reveal their badness and expose all the trolls.

That was a great idea to have such a poll with such public specifics, and only a couple of bears participated...   

There were a few people who had very similar thinking to me, but most of the predictions were a bit more bullish than me... and that's o.k.  I hope that they are correct b/c I would profit from that, as well, but I guess I am putting a bit less money into BTC based on my a little bit less bullish sentiment(s).
