I'm usually wrong, so I'll call it a bulltrap. I really think that it is one, but not a big one.

What it looks like right now, is rebuilding a $200 support level, will probably saunter downward and tamp it down a few times before wandering off upward again...

Everybody now,

I love to go a wandering along the mountain track....

Hard to judge.

Massive sell off this last few days, sharp rebound from below $200 and now a steady climb in price.

Looks like a bull trap to me, the calm before the storm....or maybe people falling for the rumours on twatter.

Maybe it's genuine though, and we're going to get a steady recovery followed by another bubble now?

Exactly, it's hard to judge. I don't know, I gotta say the volume on Jan 14th was finally high enough to justify a real bottom, but it's nothing definite, that's for sure. I think we'll be wiser in a couple weeks.

what if i tell you that the 1k price, was a dead cat bounce too?

And the next spike of $8K will be dead cat bounce too Smiley

As Warren Buffet already confirmed, bitcoin is a poison that makes dead cats zombies so they keep bouncing eternally

exactly...  whatever anyone says, the market will do what it'll do.  even market experts make mistakes.


mistakes?  Experts in trading are right about 60% of the time.   No one knows what the market will do.
This is even more true when you take into account hacks, those are "unpredictable".

or maybe the goxxed 800k suddenly appearing and sold in the market. 

You know those coins don't exist, right?

Trading is a zero sum game... Wouldn't be possible for majority of pro traders to be right 80% of the time,
as they are all trying to take money from each other.  This is why trading is so difficult: you are trying
to take money away from very smart people.   

It is easier with bitcoin.
You try to take away money from dumb people.
Stocks are harder to trade.

so they're wrong 40% of the time?  wow.  i thought they're right at like 75% - 80% of the time.

Blurted unfortunately. The rise looks like a standard corrective move upwards (as an A-B-C).

Hopefully the drop that will follow will be the last one and shouldn't go that much lower than the previous low of $150. I'm guessing $130, but that's pure speculation.

I'm thinking the same. Possibly flash under $100 on some exchanges.

I think I agree with the people who are suggesting this is the bouncing period and we will see a little lower in the next few days.

I'm afraid the price is unpredictable, it's like a roller coaster but with undefined rails.
Yeah, and reading posts in this forum is of no help. Entertaining, maybe.

Genuine rise to maybe low 300s, then small drop to maybe 300/mid 200s, then huge increase to 500 after the btc conferences, and during Superbowl weekend.  
I base that off absolutely nothing, no need to pretend I can tell the world from a chart like everyone else Smiley

buy, sell or whatever, just keep losses small.
