XT nodes falling down. Looks like people started prefer bip 100 blocksize solution.

not the people.. the big miners.

Only miners count in the end. However, it is good to see that number of users running XT nodes is down under 900 and falling, now only 810 on BitNodes. Novelty wearing off perhaps. Do not discount Mike Hearn ambition though probably has a few tricks left to pull. Considering how negatively bitcoin market reacted to Bitcoin XT introduction he should pull it.

Correct me if I'm wrong but only big miners or solo miners get a say in this vote. If you mine in a pool like many people do, you are not running a full node so you don't get a vote.

Mike will get what he wants in my opinion. Lighthouse. Possibly will advocate for it in BIP 100 since it does no harm.

In some way, maybe this was the plan all along, split up the community on extremes, then a moderate  approach creeps in that still enlarges the blocksize, but is reasonable enough to be accepted by both extremes. Win WIn

confirmed inverted H&S ,1h   Grin

Reversal was obvious when price drew V-type pattern (230-198-230) few days ago. It commonly transforms into h&s-like pattern.

I was looking up some forex tech analysis stuff today and came across this.
http://www.fxkeys.com/doji-candlestick-doji-star-how-to-trade-using-doji-candlestick-and-bollinger-bands/

What do you think about the doji hammer on bitstamp for the 1 week and 3 day charts?



It looks decent i'll admit. Bitcoin markets offer plenty of textbook candlestick patterns. Noobs learning candlesticks could benefit from observing BTC markets.

Back to the doji hammer, on the weekly, there's 3 more days to the end of that candle's week, so that should be at the back of the mind. It could turn to something different if prices go lower.

If it does hold and remains as is, then there is a good chance market will go up  and maybe even trend sideways for a while (while respecting the hammer bottom).

IMO, after observing this pattern, it is wise to now find technique that has a broader time outlook. THis hammer could mark the bottom of a trading sideways range/ or the bottom of significant move up. That is where the other technique comes in.

I would suggest looking at MAster Luc's charts, RynDiClems and watch the strength of the market as we come up against EMA's and MA's. That will add conviction to where this doji hammer fits.

To be clear, I'm not saying that 1xx or double digits are impossible. But I'm going in a similar direction as fatman above, "[when price goes] below $230 people start sending money to exchanges":

My earlier point regarding this -- Whether or not people start sending money to exchanges is quite irrelevant to the liquidity vacuum that exists below a certain price point. If we are discussing the possibility of margin cascades, it is unlikely that people could wire money to exchanges fast enough to prevent a flash crash. I have no doubt that real demand for bitcoins in the $100s is much, much higher than an exchange order book's capability to handle temporary and volatile supply/demand imbalance.

In this instance, leveraged positions are far, far more relevant than money on its way to the exchanges.

If you are still holding a significant position, I would keep a trigger finger on a stop-loss.

You shouldn't need a trigger finger to have a stop loss. Set it and forget it.
