Are you guys ok if BTC ends in the 10k USD range at the end of 2019?

[rdluffy]

Many are all speculating of what Bitcoin market value will be at the end of this year 2019 and no one is very sure of what  the end price could be buddy but I will Happy if bitcoin will remain above $20,000 at the end of this year.

Above 20k USD?
For me, it's a very hard mark to beat in this year, I know when BTC starts to rise, no one can stop, but to reach 20k?
It's not an easy thing

[terrorJR]

I will continue to think positively about the price of bitcoin at the end of the year which will reach 15k USD in my opinion because the future bitcoin is increasingly showing growth.

[adaseb]

If we finished in the $10K range then in my opinion it would be good for Bitcoin and Crypto in general. Since we spent most of 2018 in the $6K range.

However looking at the charts right now, there was massive selling earlier and looks like we might touch the $9500 support area, and hopefully it holds. If you guys look on Bitmex there was 1 candle on the 1 minute chart which showed over $114,000,000 in US volume which is a record if I recall. Hence there was some nasty selling going on.

Also add the fact that alts were rising. So people are getting out of BTC and heading into alt-coin it seems.

[STT]

I expect it to rise much higher until the end of the year.

The good news explains the price now I think and anticipation of that news.    I think in simple way, if we already rose it becomes more difficult to continually repeat that rise.   I expect price to adjust for the unexpected and when its known we stay level or even sell some.
   Theres several waves and type of buyers, some will buy just before the next move down but I think the most reliable buy is when its closing out shorts who expected the opposite and on previously unexpected developments.

I bought Bitcoin this year at the price of $4,000  and keep on holding therefore if the price will end at $10,000 then so be it as i already earned much but i just keep on holding as i believe that Bitcoin price will still going to increase of up to $15,000 before this year end and if luckily will hit that mark then i will sell half of it immediately.

[el kaka22]

The answer to this kinda depends on where people really bought. I mean I could be happy because I bought at $4k but someone else could be sad because they bought at $13k peak times, so $10k all by itself doesn't make a general difference, it is all individual to people who bought bitcoin at different times. Of course, it is going to be great considering we started the year with 3.4k type of prices so no matter where you bought it is at least better than that which makes us all happy however that doesn't mean that we can't want more from bitcoin.

I think eventually this halving will affect the prices and we will see another increase, not that quickly I am sure but I am really waiting on December to be a bull month, maybe not $20k or more but at least $15k range should be done.

[TravelMug]

Doesn't matter. As long as those who make a profit at $10k then it's a good price. The problem I see is that people wanted more and still hoping that we can see a massive bull run similar to 2017. The whole landscape has changes.

Perhaps if individuals who bought at $10k or above, obviously they wanted to make a profit. But for those who purchase during $3k, is it already a profit, but I'm sure they wanted to maximise their profit and see $15k++.

[FanEagle]

Now, we have two type of people with about 3 answers to this question according to you. One is people who bought over 10k and they lost money so they are sad, that is an option and an obvious one at that so I can't say anything about it.

The second one is people who bought at 3k and profited, they could be very happy with what they made and that is a good thing because you made almost x4 at one point and now standing at around x3 profit, its good and nobody really can make x3 in 9 months normally so its a one life time thing for most of them.

Third and last is people who bought at 3k and wanted to make more profits, those are the most useless ones because you already made a profit, why would anyone care but they exist. So as you can see it still depends on where you bought since between these 3 options there is 2 different entry points.

[imstillthebest]

nice question you got there @op but to answer your question yes i am just like you  .  i already contented about this price range we have right now and what i love is the stability like you also mention  . i think i am more confident to hold  my btc this way and earning small stable profits because btc do also increase in a smaller amounts sometimes and then it goes back again at his base which is 10k usd but we dont know to some if they will also prefer this price range but i think many are too assuming and will hope for more price increase  .

[redsun114]

I totally agree that bitcoin price being 10k would be beneficial to everyone involved for now, even if you bought at 13k and sad that it went down you can actually be happy that it didn't fall any further down, at one point people were discussing about 7.2k possibility once again, not too long ago just couple weeks ago that seemed like the reason why bitcoin is not going up and won't until it closes the gap there which is why 10k is better for the people who bought at 13k since it doesn't involve any 7.2k into it. However of course everyone who has bitcoin would love to see it go above 20k once again, that would be dream come true but it would also take a long time as well. I personally want to see bitcoin go up soon because I have none left to buy more.

[serjent05]

I would rather see Bitcoin to maintain its price rather than seeing it crumble down so it is fine for me if Bitcoin maintain its price range at around $10k at the end of the year.  Remember, it was around $3k range when the year started and growing at around 300% price in just a  year is a good thing IMO.  And it would be better if ever Bitcoin goes more than $10k before the end year.  Everyone likes BTC price to increase, right?

[Oilacris]

Guys, as we are seeing, we are in a 10k USD range for some time, are you ok if we end this year with this price?

For me, I'm happy because we started the year in a very low price, and BTC reached 13k, falled to 10k and here we are, but the most importart for me it's the stability, it's good to hold the price for some time, without need to worry
I confess that 12k USD will be very, very good 

Even the prices weren't okay theres nothing we can do about it but to wait up on what would be the next possible move to happen with BTC.

Important thing here is that we do know how to utilize this movements for our benefits or gains.Go for shorts because even if we are on sideways movement
the volatility is always present.Take advantage on it and carefully making positions because its impossible not to get some movement gains.

[cryptoperkele]

I would be more then ok, because i am on the accumulation phase and hoping i can get back in before the parabolic rise.

[STT]

The monthly average is at 10k and the 50 day average also mostly because yes we've been orbiting 10k for a long time.   Right now we are basically just stuck at 10k and barely leaving its confines for more then an hour, which is strange and unlike normal progress in BTC.
    So this is a bit like asking if Im ok with the TV floating mid air, sure if it still works and doesnt fall I dont mind but I'm also wondering why the TV would floating in the middle of the room for 3 months for no apparent reason.    That question of why is the price so decided on this particular point precisely when actually FIAT currencies vary in value anyway so this nominal price shouldnt be that important.     Thats not exactly ok, we are expecting a breakout and it seems like it will wait us out and move when we sleep.

haha, a funny comparison but a wrong one. in case of bitcoin it is not the first time to see this kind of "stuck" price and it not out of the ordinary. in fact it happens more than you may think. they usually show either accumulation or the undecidedness of the market participants. and are always the transitioning phase from one state to another. for example the $3k stability which lasted ~4 months was the accumulation phase with everyone being afraid and undecided where market got ready to launch towards $6000 in one month and $13k in 2 months.

[Oasisman]

Well, whats the least we can do? I would be fine as well, than seeing it crashing below 50%. On my edge, I still have some Bitcoin in my bag, I find it hard to accumulate more as the price is a bit higher for accumulation. But, as I've noticed the price wont stay the same longer than atleast the span of 6 months, It will eventually move may it be an uptrend or a downward direction. Also, looking at the speculation thread, a lot of people are giving good feedbacks from positive TA's and less of a FUD, so this may help for the price to close the gap near the ATH.

I don't really have any problem with bitcoin remaining at a price close to 10,000 dollars, I know that there are some investors out there that want to see bitcoin growing very fast because they are only thinking about the profits that they can get out of a movement like that, but that kind of growth is not really healthy for bitcoin and it will surely lead to another crash and as we have seen the consequences of such crash can last for years.

And I do not know about you but I do not want to go through that again, 2018 was by far the most difficult year when it came to holding my coins and while I did it, it was very difficult and many people did not make it so I'm fine with the stability that bitcoin is showing right now.

[goinmerry]

I don't know why should be disappointed nor not be happy if bitcoin price will end up at $10,000 price at the end of the year.

We came from a red market last year and that's the worst bearish market we have seen coming from $20,000 to $3,000. This year BTC price shows momentum at lower floors then slowly climb up and experienced several price swings to where it is now. This is just a start and soon this $10,000 is now the bottom.

If you are just happy because of the specific price, think again. For BTC price to achieve your high price target, it needs a strong foundation and not just rocketing directly to the moon.

I'm not disappointed, but there are a lot of people who are waiting for ATH, or even more at the end of the year, days are coming, we are in mid of september and we are at 10k USD, and I don't see any movement towards 20k or more

I don't know why should we bother to those people waiting for ATH at the end of the year.

I also don't understand why it's a big deal. And why should those people you are pointing be disappointed if $10,000 is the price at the end of the year?

Hoping for ATH target this year is too much to ask. Why expect that kind of rise this year? Let's wait patiently.

Let's stick with realistic thing first. If new ATH will come this year, then everybody happy. But expecting it will not help the process.

[STT]

in case of bitcoin it is not the first time to see this kind of "stuck" price

Sure I do remember and for the record I was holding for most of 2017 because I noticed earlier in the year it was with positive bias like this, I considered selling and could never justify it on risk vs rewards basis.   I wish I had been that clever/lucky this year but mostly I held later rather then sooner.   However I dont think this is 2017 in an exact same way, we did already have the rise from 3k to 13k and that was a great big rise and its lost that trend.    So waiting now could still go either way and various people believe it must break out upwards but my honest guess is it resolves downwards.  
   The only really important question here is duration of that direction, I've seen some speculate a break downwards before making new highs in not much time.   I guess I'll say down medium term but eventually upwards, I dont really rate this halvening event as some positive force even after it occurs but in perception sure it can encourage buyers.

[davinchi]

Looks like bitcoin is having a rough time these days, I will kinda feel fine if it ends over 10k, not too much, like 10001 would be more than enough, so as long as its not where it is right now I will be happy, that is what bitcoin does to people, one day you want it to be 15k and one day you would be glad if it goes only to 10k, literally a mental issue for many of us here, we lost our train of thought while checking the prices.

However, in the end I am still doing fine, so I do not think that I will be super sad, my financials are not what it used to be and I have to be more careful from now on unfortunately but in the end that was the risk I took when I went full crypto, some days will be horrible and some days will be decent, I agreed to it and I will be glad whatever btc ends up in 2020.
