I am not a technical analysis expert, however, bitcoin would be oversold under $3200 and it would be the right time to buy than to sell, wouldn't it?
What is the basic rule of trading again?
Buy low, sell high.
Recently, Mark Dow, a preeminent hedge fund manager and skilled chartist, took to Twitter on Tuesday to make an unexpected declaration. In a tweet seemingly poking fun at crypto’s zealous bulls, Dow wrote that he would be saying goodbye to his Bitcoin (BTC) short, which he purportedly opened during the asset’s peak in late-2017.
In a phone interview with Bloomberg, the ostensible Bitcoin bear made it clear that his tweet wasn’t made in jest, adding that he was “done” with the position. Speaking to the outlet, Dow explained that he doesn’t “want to try and ride this thing to zero,” potentially indicating that he sees some semblance of value in BTC. Equating his anti-BTC forecast to a lemon, he stated:
“I don’t want to try to squeeze more out of the lemon. I don’t want to think about it. It seemed like the right time.”
The current head of a Southern California family office then explained that he already took profits twice this year, making the covering of his controversial short more than logical, especially from a risk management standpoint.
Just a few weeks later, Dow has taken to Twitter again, this time to paint a bearish picture for BTC’s prospects, specifically from a technical analysis outlook. The American economist recently wrote that BTC’s chart remains “beautiful,” but noted that if the asset cannot breach the $5,000 or $6,000 prices levels in a bounce, “cyberbulls” will be in for a tough time.Read in full https://ethereumworldnews.com/bitcoin-under-3200-hodlers-gtfo-bearish/Yeah, it doesn't make any sense. I believe that bitcoin will hit levels below $3.2k again, because of the bearish sentiment that is still within the market.
Usually, a sell target is one that is close to the expected peak of a rally, not one that is lower than your entry price. It's absurd to think that this type of trading will be profitable, let alone a sustainable investing strategy in the long run.
It's essentially adopting the mindset of panic dumpers, which very rarely make profits.
What should be done during this bear market if you do have the liquidity to spare would be to accumulate BTC on a regular basis which ensures that your entry price is low, while the rest of the market is panicking. Mark Dow closing his short may not necessarily be anything fundamentally tangible, but it does send a signal to the rest of the market what rational investors should be doing.
