Why would this make worry you OP?? Bitcoin doesn't just go straight up. Did you already have the same worry like a half dozen times this year?? Cuz there have been plenty of drops so far this year.
Where or when did I say that I was worried about the current price action or yesterday's correction?? Check the OP, I only highlighted bullish factors and made clear that I think it's too early to tell if there will be a correction towards lower prices. My point was that speculators are getting nervous about a correction and I was curious to see if it's reflected in people's opinions here, which doesn't seem the case.
Bitcoin literally just hit $30k a week ago. OP why would you possibly be worrying?
Even just reading
the post above yours would have confirmed that I'm not worried about any short-term rejection from $30K that occured.
This is literally just normal price action.
Literally exactly what I said in the thread above yours regarding a -3% Daily move to the downside.
OP, you've answered a lot of your thread title with your fine rationalization. One thing that seems to be missed by everyone is sideways action.
It's a good point. For me sideways consolidation at the highs is bullish. It shows price is able to to sustain higher levels and bears are unable to move prices lower. So in that regard, not being worried about a short-term correction and being bullish is inclusive of sideways price action (rather than just continued upside). Based on the consolidation around $28K, I also agree it's quite likely around $30K in order to remain bullish.
I mean you started a thread to ask if people are worried, and claiming many people are worried, "people have started to get concerned, hence this thread", and ask them if they think the bear market is coming back and if the price will drop back to $25k or $23k or $20k, so you seem worried but trying to be hopeful and wanting to see if other people are worried.
I guess you haven't seen other threads of mine whereby I see the
correlation between this bear market relief rally and 2019, and generally think $50K is possible, or at minimum $40K for a relief rally, if the bear market is indeed over. It might seem like I'm bearish or worried if I'm creating a thread like this, but as per usual my threads are usually in order to gain market sentiment from bitcointalk users - hence they nearly always have a poll.
As I said, if you read my words rather than focusing on the title, it'll help to better confirm my opinion. Especially when I'm not providing any bearish analysis, only referencing the opinions of others.
And I was pointing out that you made this thread worrying about possibly a new bear market simply because the price dropped $1000 for a day (and is now back up to $30k one day later). This is completely normal price action. So I was just questioning why you made a thread with the title asking if there is a reason to worry when this is just normal everyday price action.
If a $1000 drop is a reason to make a thread asking if a new bear market is coming you could make a new thread about this every couple of weeks, forever. I mean heck, just a bit over a month ago the price dropped like $6k for 3 weeks, and you're asking if people are worried cuz it dropped $1000 a week after it went up $2000. This is just regular market fluctuations.
I created the thread at the time as $30K had eventually been reached, followed by a short-term correction. It wasn't because price had dropped $1K specifically, it was simply because a short-term correction had begun and I was curious about market sentiment on here, as it's often very different from the likes of crypto twitter or elsewhere as usually has more longer-term Bitcoin holders that see the bigger picture.

I guess you are focusing on the timing of the thread, as opposed to it's purpose. Price has returned to 18-month long previous support after breaking it around 10 months ago. So sure, every 10 months I'm very likely to make a thread questioning whether people think previous support will turn into new resistance. I also created a similar topic
at $25K as well as
at $20K, both times with some accurate analysis it's worth noting.
Just confused why you would start a thread asking if people are worried (potentially about going back into the bear market even!), and claiming people are concerned when I can't imagine why anyone would be concerned because you did this on a day when nothing other than normal price action took place.
Again this is about the price level rather than the timing. For months many bears have anticipated strong resistance at $30K because it was previous support for 18 months, not so different to $25K price level which held as resistance for some time. While based on technical analysis this makes a lot of sense (as it usually happens in markets), I've argued for as long that it might well not be the case based on the 2019 mini-bull market / bear market relief rally. Simply put $6K had acted as support for over 6 months and when price came back to re-test this old support as new resistance, price broke to the upside with ease and virtually no resistance what so ever. Despite many speculators anticipating this previous support to become new resistance, potentially for as long as it was support, for example like in 2015. There was also a lot more volume at $6K than around $4K (with price below it) than is currently the case at $30K. So actually, there's a strong argument that price can break through $30K much easier than it did $6K in 2019, at least based on volume.
My fairly rambling point is that unless you've been living under a rock this year, many bears have been anticipating rejection from $30K for many months now, basically since price broke below 10 months ago. They see it as similar to $25K that took 9 months to reclaim (after numerous rejections). Personally I'm not of that opinion as I stated, I actually think reclaiming $25K was the hard part rather than reclaiming $30K.

He didn't know for sure that the price will recover immediately after dipping 1K after hitting the above the 30K mark multiple times. The current price is at the peak for the current bull run cycle. There is nothing wrong to worry about for a correction because it's a normal occurrence in trading once the price pump hard.
The fact price has returned to $30K doesn't exactly invalidate the idea of a correction quite yet imo. If anything, price is facing some short-term resistance at $30.3K which is a short-term distribution zone. Obviously whether price breaks through it or not is a different question, but unless price can hold onto $30K in the coming days, there still might be a short or longer-term correction towards say $28K initially.
My point mainly is that by the end of the day price could be back under $30K, so I'd say the topic will remain as valid discussion until price crosses $32K.
You are only making this comment after the price recovery and not yesterday when the price is dipping that’s why you sound confident in your opinion.
In fairness, thecodebear did
comment on this topic yesterday pointing out (quite accurately imo) that it was normal price action.
