Can I ask just out of interest in psychological factors, out of those who think it's going back up to $1,600 by the end of the year what is the ratio of new people who missed out on the run up in November?

Based on historical peaks and valleys the next peak will be $5000 before the end of Q2 2014

well, I guess we won't be seeing 1600 USD then...

How do we get a refund?

Talk to Elwar, I'm sure he'll understand.

The price will peak at $1600 then fall back down to hold steady around $1,000 for several months.

Let it be known.

It is so.

That little dip felt a lot like the dip we had when it went from $900 to $500 before evening out around $800 for a few days.

From there it climbed quite a bit.

$1,600 by the end of the year is very possible.
It's likely to be more.
People talk to people they don't see most of the year during Christmas and new years eve. This effect is going to be priced in before the January 1st, leading to a bubble which will pop some time in January above $2000. Then we will be back hovering just above $1000 like today.

Although 1600 $ begins to sound reasonable; I do think that 10000 $ is still a bridge too far (for now)..

Just to clarify, so do I.

Looks like someone tried to throw a quick pump and dump in there to trigger weak hands.

We are still on target with a supported price around $700 today to hit the $1000 target by the weekend and $1600 in time for Thanksgiving turkey.

My calculation was close based on hitting $500 by Tuesday. We hit that 2 days early so the price may go up a little higher than $1600.

Either way, we will be at $1,000 by the end of the week based on past performance and climb quickly to the peak Thanksgiving weekend.

Thanks for your input.

$10,000

That's roughly where we'd be if the April crash never had happened and we had instead continued the Jan-March trend.

$1600 would be surprising, but only mildly. The key thing here, in addition to China, is that the BIT took off. That was the x-factor: are people actually buying the BIT or is it just languishing? People are buying, bigtime ($15 million invested in 6 weeks so far). Now that it has a track record of big gains, more will pile in. This is going to be huge, as a severe coin shortage happens due to them all being vacuumed up by Second Market, and it will manifest as a sort of organic series of little panic buys as we have been seeing.

This is what I think most in the financial community still do not fully understand.

They are used to working with investment instruments like the GLD ETF, where if there is a temporary short of the underlying asset they just fractionalize it and create paper promises (example GLD holding little physical gold and mostly paper).

Bitcoin is not fractionalizable, this is a massive difference. Wall street of course will try to fractionalize it, but will get badly burned because there is  no central entity to bail out bad/risky decisions.

Every other financial instrument exists with the boundaries of state FIAT currency, bitcoin is competing at with the FIAT currency level. 99.99999% of current economists and traders do not comprehend this fact, and the fact that  no one ever made money trading shares etc, they just swap around and existing amount of fiat money and change its velocity.

It is so.

This is a very conservative prediction. Four digits in BTC will open a new door to to five digits. Limited-supply and increased-demand is the main reason for this uptrend. Whenever either side is broken trend reverse.

If I'm understanding lucif's/masterluc's elliot wave analysis, 1250+ could be the top of the historic wave 3 (wave 1 = the rise from 0.05 to 32 and was roughly 2.8 orders of magnitudes and wave 3 = the rise from 1.99 to at least 1255 if it is no more than 2.8 magnitudes as it is expected to be)... if one were to believe in such things...  Wink



Did we complet wave 4 of 5 of (5)?


What do you Elliott guys think?
IMO, didn't completed even 3 of 5.

I thought he was talking about wave 3 of the five waves off the $65 bottom.  My count has this structure as the historic wave five.

I may have read in some of my own bullishness, but based on the relative small size of the 266 bubble (compared in log scale to the 32 bubble which I consider the top of historic wave 1) I don't have it as the end of historic wave 3 but a mere detour to the top of 1250+

Sounds about right. My own calculations say that we will at least break $1000 in this current bubble, but I don't know much more beyond that...

This is actually not far fetched at all.  Considering the exponential momentum and publicity crypto has picked up and the massive amounts of fiat cash reserves in the world.

i just.. don't know. i kind of regret selling my .5 $250/btc, but it wasn't that much of a loss. the game is too wildly unpredictable for me to be brave enough to play arbitrage.
Simply change your perspective. Longer term analysis, deflationary in a world of inflating fiat.

We are still on track for this.

If we hit $500 in 10 days we will be about 2 weeks away from $1500-$2000.

It will reach that height, as far as the correction...I believe the Chinese influence throws those results into unknown territory.

The growth rate we seem to be following now is the same growth rate we followed in Jan-March 2013: the price doubles every three weeks or so. We have 2.5 of these doublings left in the year, bringing us roughly to $1600 if the trend holds (and it did hold in Jan-March).

Could be $1600, I mean what happens when there's no more coins on gox to sell?  All the other exchanges will likely follow a giant price rise.
