Now you are coming off as a bit crazy with these kinds of numbers to attempting to assert some kind of 2013 parallel here including some kind of assertion that we have that same kind of level of over blowness in the current price and market.

Your enthusiasm is admirable. But that's all it is - mania.

Traders take profits and that blows any mania to kingdom come when it comes to markets, so I'd be careful.

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
MT Gox had noting to do with that crash no Huh

MT Gox gets far more credit that it deserves for that bear market. It was a technical consolidation, plain and simple because nothing does that many multiples of gain without a corresponding consolidation.

Look back in history at previous spikes - you'll see exactly the same thing.

If it retests $1850 at least once more you can start feeling bullish again. Even an 80% retrace wouldn't be unreasonable if this is the top which means that we're looking at around $900 for the retest before further long term growth.

Now you are coming off as a bit crazy with these kinds of numbers to attempting to assert some kind of 2013 parallel here including some kind of assertion that we have that same kind of level of over blowness in the current price and market.

I had not been invested in bitcoin at the time, but I can look at charts, and do you fucking realize the extreme difference between what happened in 2013 as compared with this situation?   not only in terms of isolated price but also in terms of the overall space and the amount of money coming into the space?  Compare it.

For the most part, there were two close to 10x price appreciations in 2013, which added up to about 77x price appreciation for the year (from $15 to $1163)... helrow?    Can you see it? 

At most we can call this something like a 20x over two years... perhaps going from about $250 to $5k. 

So both the timeline and the steepness of the slope was difference and the extremeness of the slope and the money coming into the space was quite different, too.  Sure some of those kinds of facts and differences can cut both ways in terms of whether we could call the same conditions today as a similar kind of overinflatted bubble as was more justifiable in 2013... 

So, hopefully, you are not shorting too hard in your attempt to suggest that there is some kind of strong downward correction that is somehow necessary (or maybe you are attempting to argue inevitable?) at the current time.

By the way, I am not claiming that I know much of anything, except to assert what you seem to be arguing and strongly outlining based on some kind of supposed mathematics (TA), is both premature and overstated.

...but it is way too fucking early to smug about any such assertion based on our current circumstance, and whether confidence has been shaken or bears have taken control

Well we have a solid 7/30 Day SMA crossover and it looks like being an EMA one as well. We've only had 3 such crossovers this year - January, July and April - and in EACH case the market took us back to BELOW the previously established platform support, albeit temporarily. That would suggest that we're going to at least retest $2700 and possibly lower prior to further growth.

I'd say therefore it was prudent, not smug, to entertain the idea that bears will be in control for at least a while.

If people are panic selling because of what some guy at JP Morgan said....GOOD.

I hope they go long on the dollar and buy war bonds. Maybe run up some credit card debt and pay overdraft fees to their banks. Enjoy your inflationary (on purpose!) currency.

Completely WRONG! Bitcoin price is driven not by technicals but by fundamentals!
To trade bitcoin using TA during fundamental uptrend is totally unprofessional!

Completely wrong.

Where were you during the backside of the last big "China" spike in 2013 when it peaked out at $1200 ?

It had every bullish fundamental going for it - from Overstock adoption to new exchanges, to worldwide media attention to new associated fintech innovations, not to mention a ton of new wallet developers arriving on the scene.

All of that was NADA compared to the technical correction that ensued. Once the bear market kicks in, no amount of fundamentals can prevent it from running its course. A long term bearish crossover to a trader is a tidal reversal that no ship overcomes. During a major bullrun all "fundamentals" for at least the next 12 months get priced in anyway. It's when they arrive for real that the profit take starts.



It seems to be way too early to call a bear market, merely because we are experiencing a 20% plus correction.... within less than 2 weeks of the most recent ATH...   

In the end, you could be correct, that we are transitioning into a bear market,   but it is way too fucking early to smug about any such assertion based on our current circumstance, and whether confidence has been shaken or bears have taken control based on lilie bitsie exaggerated fud-train in recent days.

BTC + Crossfit, living life.

I understand the wet dream of every TA fan that sold their bitcoins sub $3k to have that level revisited but...  keep on dreaming! You'll wake up when we break $10k by the end of this year.

If we do - and that's the top - it will be followed by a retrace to $2000.

Cliff High says $13888 by next spring. So that could mean either:

 • $20k+ with retrace to $13 or
 • $13k with retrace to $3k next summer

We need that 80% retrace for the price to get baked in. Don't worry. The alts - in particular Dash - will take up the slack when it happens.

haha... so, you sold your bitcoins at $2k to buy dash. Oh, boy...


I'm thinking on allways same strategie Just buy and HODL on my coins allways same never ending story I GUESSSS

No. I've steadily accumulated BTC for 3 years and never (net) sold any of them. But I've used Dash as a hedge since it's a better store of value than bitcoin and can act as a successful counterweight in bitcoin bear markets.

So this is where the Legendaries and Heros hang out. It fells like walking into a bikers bar for the first time. Some interesting conversations tho.

Leave your bitcoin's on the bar & get out Newbie.

So, uptrend isn't a straight line, right?

We had $5k now we have $4k. Healthy correction took place and soon we'll break $5k for new ATH. Big money just start entering Bitcoin and won't stop in the next couple of years!




I agree! 4k USD is theis BTC bottom!

It's the best time to buy now!
The red 1 day chart is finished very soon, and the next wave UP will be huge !
best wishes

Yes healthy correction took place , So price go up price go down.... up ... down... but als the dude lebowski says that rug really Tied the room together So let us all stay in This btc show and abide whatever Grin

No it didn't. A "dip" took place.

How could you possibly know this for sure? What kind of crystal ball do you have that tells you this?
You'd do wise to keep an open mind, instead of making a mockery out of yourself by excluding the possibility something else happens.

A "healthy correction would be a retest of one of the major support lines created during revaluation period. I'm not necessarily saying that we've reached the top yet - there may well be more to come but the reversal will occur at some point and then we'll enter a long term consolidation period where the higher it rose the further it will retrace. 80% being not unreasonable given the  rise that's been.

Just sayin. Don't think "fundamentals" are going to save it because they're being priced in now.
