in my opinion it has become a risk in investing with crypto currencies because we know the risks that will be obtained are very large prices that we cannot predict it is one of them we also have to be ready with these risks

100X leverage with bitmex allows for incentives for manipulation in an unregulated market. During low volume it doesn't take much to drop the price enough to trigger stop-losses and long position liquidations.

Furthermore, when you're paid out in bitcoin after the manipulated plunge, you open more short positions against long positions that think a rebound is imminent. Then proceed to dump the earned bitcoins on exchanges causing it to happen again. By then they made so much money from selling the bitcoins, they then do the opposite, this time buying all at once after closing short positions.


This will continue to happen until bitmex gets shut down, or someone finds the group of manipulators involved.

either way, to think sudden drops like this is from normal market trends and not a coordinated event when 100x leverage is possible, is delusional.

For every big drop there is a big rise and visa-versa. If you check any
historical graph for any crypto coin you will be able to identify any
countless amounts of such movements. When you are around this
space for a longer time you will realise it happens regularly.
It happen so many times and isn't alarming for this days. We eventually having the dips for a year and it absolutely dragging out people's trust on crypto. The huge fall we have now is not really good for everyone but we can't do nothing is to accept the reality. The market is so different from what it shown in previous years, the game is so risky and might tend of losing if we don't have enough knowledge and planning.

Holiday season is over when college football is over. Looks like manipulation too.

Now it's dropping again, bear market is not over yet. The market is not yet ready for the bull run and it could be seeking for another bottom again. But the way i see it, this is still a reasonable price and not yet too deep from before's price.

That bull trap i was guessing before was real, maybe it could bounce back again after this dip.

The drop may be due to the correction
BTC failed to exceed the resistance line and this is a natural result
And do not forget that we are Friday night
Yes landing is not a little ($ 400)
But the coming hours will tell us a lot.

I think, this what we see now, is happening what everyone was afraid of - bear market is not over yet and the market is looking for the bottom.
I hope I'm wrong and this is just a temporary correction.

Definitely we're not out of the bear market yet as others might have wanted to be. It's been trying to go as to break that $4200 barrier in the last couple of days but it seems that there's a lot of resistance and it didn't hold that's why we see another market correction. This goes to show how volatile the market is, difficult to predict. This could just be another correction, as the bullish flag pattern didn't hold.

so.. hru?
Crypto is literally like this every week. It always drops 10% or rise 10% there's barely a time where it just stays stagnant for a while.

Mine as well keep holding or buying some more bitcoin if you really want. People are just panic selling or sick of crypto making them lose their life savings lol.

I believe it was just the marketplace acting. the trend may be bear, but I still believe in the bull

It seems that the market is permanently unstable, one day goes up 200 and the other goes down 400, we should be used to it and this does not have to be news, cryptos have always been so volatile, especially now that there is much speculation in the market.

I agree with you guys - but notice that (almost) every single coin dropped at the exact same time, losing around 10-15% of its value.
I find that interesting.

Bitcoin fall again at around 3,800 USD from more than 4,000.
This is the big reason why most coin are dropping or drop in price again.
They are all connected with bitcoin in the market. that is the big WHY!

Markets move, that's what they do, be it up, sideways or down. Right now we're getting dumped on hard, we can either accumulate more, hodl or sell.

This is all that really needs to be said on the matter. I can never fathom why people keep asking the same "why" question each time the price goes down because it's always the same answer. It all comes down to demand. The massive drops are always due to panic sellers though doing what they do best and panicing but when there's people selling there has to be people buying and it's those people who still have faith in bitcoin and know the score - bitcoin goes up and bitcoin goes down and there's usually always profit to be made in that. It was already up a few hundred dollars from a couple of weeks ago and I'm sure it will be the same in X time from now.

Perfectly normal market behaviour in a bear market. We've experiencing the same pattern for the past few months so this drop today shouldn't be surprising to anyone who's been for at least a couple of months. As for a reason, you can't exactly pinpoint the reason behind such a drop, we can only speculate, for instance, a big whale decided to sell a big chunk of btc to take some profits, or several whales decided to trigger a sell-off so that other whales can buy cheap, or perhaps some news or FUD is going around which is making people sell...it's really difficult to say for certain what's happening right now, best you can do right now is either hold your coins or buy cheap coins.

It's too early to decide because the market still keep moving. AFAIK, we can see the real market in next few month and personally I believe there will be an uptrend !

The dropping price of cryptocoins is normal and until now we still face big drop price of bitcoin. The charts show sudden falling down or drop of the price in market which lead to a big losses. As you can see the price of bitcoin is still at the price of $3600-$3700 and we do not know if bitcoin will escape that price. But, we should believe that bitcoin will escape that price and in the end of this month it will reach the price of $4000.

But as we can see on 2018, it's difficult for crypto especially bitcoin able reach highest value as high as before but hope it will happen !

This is small movement and unimportant in the big picture. The market makes moves all the time, searching to find a reason for small moves like this only brings panic. No one will remember this small move in a year's time, that is certain.

I won't deny that I am little worried about the price point, but 10-15% is somewhat normal in crypto market, at least it used to be. Percentage wise, the fluctuation is normal but since the price is low, it seems like a big blow!

No one would be able to tell you why it is happening. A price drop can occur for numbers of reasons. Lets not speculate the reason as no one would be able to confirm if the reason is correct or not!
