Bitcoin - Bullish or Bearish 2018

[deppil]

2018, for me, will be the deciding factor for bitcoin if it will be a part of our future or not. But taking into account the previous history of bitcoin, I think there's a chance that we will see bitcoin repeat the all time high last year or just close to it.

Me too hope the same thing for price changes can be like last year. but up to mid-year. there is no increase too high?
bitcoin market is more often experiencing price declines. could it be bearish this year? I hope recover prices will happen soon.

There is a huge chance that it will be part of our future because there are a lot of people in different countries who are investing on cryptocurrency and they are considering bitcoins as a currency.

Bitcoin is not doubt a online currency, but in current time most of the people are investing money in bitcoin only for the purposes to make money from it. In fact bitcoin is in its early stage and that is the reason that people are joining bitcoin and which cause the price to fluctuate more and give good profit to bitcoin investors. And traders.

It looks like we are going to see their bearish trend up to the end of the year and there's no enough push from the investors and speculators to say that we are out of the woods. On the contrary, the ETF news put bitcoin on another price decline. The postponement made the price plummet again so it looks like we really need to brace ourselves and expect no drastic price movement up to the end of the year.

Seems to me a positive possibility in all probability is perfectly passable despite past performance

Short term I would say a breakout is a possible and we can easily be alot more positive then now.   Thats all thats needed for some accumulation towards year end from this point.   Im not sure whether to say we will rise higher from the point in Jan 2018 and so make this is a positive year.  
However people generally overreact to pullbacks and focus too much on just moments rather then the transition and evolution that helps in BTC protocol as it passes through the years, both the code, the network its development and usage in a population.

  Really the potential usage by a population is the most important part to any price, I dont consider 2018 as negative as some might because of just the price.   They fixed fees so BTC developers get a salute from me and its being useful to people stuck in countries with no usable access to reliable banking, its doing some good in the world and what more can we really hope for then a product that works and helps people

Yeah, here we are again in the 6Ks and even heading towards the 5Ks again. This isn't something we have not witnessed before. Always remember that when there is this kind of sharp decrease, there will be also an equally sharp increase in price in return so you just have to hodl some coins and wait for some time now. Trying to follow the market will make you go bankrupt.

The price might reduce to $6k dollars again but it was a good news because people can still invest a huge amount in order to earn more profit when the market prices pumps up.

No matter what this year throw to us, i am still applying what i learned from others. To buy during the fall of prices and to sell when the price is high. So with that, a bullish or bearish market is always ok for me as long as bitcoin will always be there.

And you have learned well, there are many persons that are incredible dependent on the bull market for profits and when it does not come they give up on cryptocurrencies and then they regret not being in the market when the actual bull market appears, this is a phase in the market and it does not matter how long it lasts at some point it is going to end because the technology of bitcoin has gotten better and it is about to get even better, and when it does, people will regret not buying at the cheap prices of today.

Exactly what investors think right now for they are to make huge profit that is why they are holding their coins and looking for further investment because the conditions are more favorable for them. The price has dropped more to 6126 US dollar right now and this is highly affordable price for investors can easily buy a lot of coins with this rate which will make them able to attract maximum profit in bull market.

It's obviously a bearish 2018, we can expect this since the previous year is totally a hyped, t just seems to long before it recovers or it doesn't even do on being in bear movements.

The market is bearish right now but just keep on  holding your coins because it will still recover soon just like what happened last year in december when bitcoins reached $19k dollars.

[krauzzer02]

Possible and its happening right now, bullish or bearish year? every year it was both like that there are months for a torture bear market where you can see your whole portfolio soaking with blood and minuses do not forget those posters saying bitcoin is dead and bubble every dip and there is a bullish period where you can say its mooning cycle of the cryptocurrency as they've said.

[napi]

for now bitcoin in 2018 will never be able to predict again many traders are confused about this bitcoin price movement. and the current price of bitcoin is very terrible.

[BigTeeths]

This 2018 is a bearish year. There is no doubt about that. The $30k and $50k predictions are impossible to happen right now. No altcoins can even manage to back to their ICO prices right now. I also don't see a great improvement in 2019 if ever the SEC declines the ETF in the future. So good luck on the HODL guys.

Well indon't think you can seriously stick to any predictions in the first place. Many people look yo charts and graph analysis but for me, it's not that often that it will give you an accurate figure. A lot of people have ended up disappointed with these predictions.

I've been keeping up with Bitcoin and investing for the past year, and Im wondering if anyone thinks it will drop back down to 6 - 6.5k in the upcoming months?
 I've read a lot of projections and there is a mixed consensus but several "vets" agree it's due for a big drop.
What does everyone think?

That has been pretty much the floor of bitcoin for a long time, and we are right now at those ranges again so if what you are looking for is the perfect opportunity to enter in this market I think that you found it, I know that people would like to get an even better price and maybe you could have the chance if you wait for long enough, but the price below 6k does not last that long at most a few days and if you are not putting attention to the market at that time you will miss the chance.

We've rotated at this price a second time and we haven't dropped below $6k and I think this is a low point for the price of bitcoin, you can use it to buy, the price in this position is always a turning point because after that the price will rise again and it looks like the price has started to go green again, I hope it will continue. actually we cannot predict for sure this year will be bearish or bullish, lets see and hope bull trend will come

[Aleh777]

Cannot judge the market according to the current situation,  because unexpectedly the price goes down at the same time again it started to increase. We are almost in the last quarter of this year, still the price is in fluctuations only. So in 2018 we cannot expect the bullish market. But at the same time it will not bearish. Like now the price will goes up and down only. We cannot expect high growth in this year.

Holding of coins is a better decision in current conditions of the market which are cheap for investor to find a good time. We cam collect a lot of Bitcoins and that is true for our maximum and huge profit for which we are waiting since long. This bearish trend will over in the next few months and we have to prepare our selves for that time when we get success for which we have to buy as much as we can.

We do not need luck we only need to hold for long enough to get profits, that is the beautiful thing about holding your coins, with other ways to make money out of the market like trading you need to keep up to date with everything that is happening around the coin in which you invested in order to try to gain the slightest edge over your competitors, but the holder only has to do one thing to select one coin and hold it and that is pathetically easy since the best coin to hold is bitcoin and everyone knows it.

What do you want to impose here?because just couple of weeks ago bitcoin had drops to more than $5,000 and now you wanted to drop at $6,000 again?i see no good logic here,i dont know if you are updated in market flow or not.

But bitcoin will not go to that value again,bitcoin will continue to grow until december and thats for sure according to the price movements

Yes that is right that up to now we are facing a bearish market but very soon the bearish trend going to finish and the we will enjoy a bullish market which will hopefully continue for a long time, may be tell the price reaches to 20000$ again.

The market is not rushed now. All sensual decisions lead to failure. Our job now should be to wait and get involved in other tasks. Do not focus on charts, give value to the community. Play more meaningful.
