I took a short position in BTC last night.

Short -10 BTC.

Let's see how it plays out. Im expecting it to go to $200 and lower.

At what price did you short? I got a feeling its bad time to short right now..

While I am expecting it will go lower than 200, I am not as brave as you.

The price can go to 800 first before dropping back and go below 200.

Today will be the deciding point... If we can't hold 390 then we are now starting to hit lower highs, bad long bets, I might start selling/shorting some myself. Today is the decider day

So the price has moved down a little since I took the position, but other than that no big changes. I'm waiting for a break downwards. I'm thinking of donating my profit to a charitable cause, please feel free to post your suggestions.

...and now it is has moved right back up above where you bought it.....that glittering $100 profit or whatever that you could have had has went up in smoke. Now you are underwater by a pennies.....and so it will continue...

the market will very likely crush your balls before it takes its next leg down proper.

You will sell, and you will realise a loss.


I will keep my fingers crossed on a little break out up to $450 for you.......ya fkn broke prick.

Matt, since when could you predict the future?

Are you going to update this thread after every 1 cent price move, to try and re-enforce your point?

I suggest you stfu and get a life.

Are you basing this trade on the technicals (last few months price points down), or the fundamentals?

If it is the technicals, why not take the last few weeks which point up, or the overall multi year trend which points at alpha centauri?

Genuinely interested why anyone would short bitcoin, a hyper volatile commodity with a history of increasing price tenfold, especially with an entry after a >70% decline from a recent ATH. Surely there are better entry points?

Me advising that "one should never short in a flat market", wasn't exactly predicting the future, but more a general bit of common knowledge advice, similar in principle to "Never walk across a road with your eyes closed"

It pleases me that you are so clearly fucked b4 you have even begun.

What would please me more would be if you could go and max out some credit cards or something and put it all into Bitcoin investing.

Close your short once bitcoin drop 5-10$. Lower risk...

Wow this is incredible

The speed of the decline on huobi is something else.

Nice little profit already realized. Bigger move to come though.

10 dollars drop was insane if someone is using huge leverage.

Based on today price, shorting seems to have pay off for him.

If it really drop to 200, I might buy some and treat it like lottery ticket.
