You gotta know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em, know when to walk away and turn around and run.
That moment where you consider whether or not to GTFO has once again emerged upon us. Do you make a little dough at the risk of the entire system collapsing/being government seized tomorrow? You are all super greedy as another poster just said.

Nomen est omen for our Newbie. If you lack greed, you lack energy. Same thing for fear. They just need to be kept in check. Here, look how clouded by greed I am in my expectations: IMO the most probable thing is just a larger sideways, even if it fluctuates a lot from our microscopic view. It is hard to outdo this 5th October event. At the same time, we obviously have lots of overhead resistance, and it would take a long time to get through.
The thing is just that even if we go to 400, 500, it can fit into a sideways. TO DA NOWHERE! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

...Bitcoin is not a currency and it will not be for a long time. Most important properties of Bitcoin: digital, no counterparty, no monetary policy. Bitcoin is the modern incarnation of precious metals, a kind of super silver... In the sense that it's an outmoded anachronism with rapidly dropping USD price? Sure.

It's bad. If you don't have a black market, a market that draws consumer demand but where the vendors don't convert all of their proceeds into fiat, then what are you left with? Major retailers (who dump the second somebody spends their coins) and Wall Street (who can make a hell of a lot more money through dumping than pumping... it's easier, less risky, and very lucrative to sabotage). It's bad. It may actually work to your benefit in the short-term, but it is very bad and getting worse -- that much be said.

Amateurs, geezes fucking christ...
This is why we can't have nice things! Shit go south real quick when amateurs get dollar signs in their eyes
You sure sound like a pro blaming everything you dislike about the market (WHY OH WHY ARE THERE NO STRAIGHT LINES UP FOREVER, /Shroomskit) to some externality, "amateurs". ...Bitcoin is not a currency and it will not be for a long time. Most important properties of Bitcoin: digital, no counterparty, no monetary policy. Bitcoin is the modern incarnation of precious metals, a kind of super silver... In the sense that it's an outmoded anachronism with rapidly dropping USD price? Sure. If you think an asset with those three properties (Who the fuck needs those, amirite?) is not desirable enough to warrant a rising price (as has happened the past years), too bad for you. Keep stuck in your 2014 view. ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

So things are very bearish now right?
It's tricky if you are looking short term. We are in the middle of a pump and TA would tell you that our next target is $370. Looking longer term... I think this is scary news. That's my take. It's not only the implications of these guys getting shut down and maybe having even more seized coins dumped on the market, but it is the tenor of hostility by regulators towards BTC, in general. Some will disagree. Read their points. Tough to assess. I'm sitting out, watching, and seeing if there is anything to learn from this.

How to become a trading pro: Enter position based on gut feeling. Don't have any plan to realize possible gains because you are a long-term hodler after all. Get stuck when tide turns on you, you obviously can't sell anymore because that would mean locking in a loss, thus making you wrong. Start posting frantically about how this is the fault of x and y and z.
Congratulations, you have become a ShroomsKit.

Well there certainly is very little sell pressure on these rallies. Sellers on vacation, demand rising.
