A big rally requires not only timing but also something to rally around (whether real or not).
One rally was started with the US Senate legitimatized Bitcoin. The last rally was when China got involved and everyone believed all of China would be buying bitcoins.
I think the Winklevoss ETF released before the halving would push the price up over $5,000.
Steam accepting bitcoins is a great boost until people realize that it just means people will be spending their bitcoins that they've been sitting on for a while which will be converted to dollars. (a major merchant accepting bitcoins usually does not boost the price).

Well, it was a surprise that dumping began this fast.
I thought that it will take at least a day or two, before the BTC->STEAM->$ engine will show it's effect. Things will probably get interesting because I doubt that the engine is running at it's peak.
Most here are blinded by big words and can't understand how thin the buy side really is. The price isn't holding because of the strong bid side, but because of the desperate miners who want to see some ROI.

We have no idea who sold. It could be guys that bought at 370-400 when others were like "OMG I WONDER WHY IT IZNT AT SUB200". There was looooooooot of buying back then at the dumps of weak hands.
If some steam coins weren't sold yet, then it only means that there are even more coins out there, waiting to be sold in the near future

I'm calling a bottom (famous last words )
)So was it just whales at play on a mini-pump? (ie the whales tipped their hand and moved too soon and too fast on their tango of the rest of us in the dust)
Must be nice to play with BTC price like it is your personal 'angry birds' game
Bid sides are looking healthier at these levels. No flash crashes. Longs are huge but it wont be cheap to shake them and there are BTC10k till $420 on finex ready to catch them. Getting close to halfing, too much uncertainty so i'm speculating that sides are more likely to dig in then start dumping too much. We raised on little volume and thin bid side so were due for a smack down. But as i write this BTC400 ask wall comes up on stamp and there're BTC1k to $444 on finex

The way I see it is whenever bitcoin's not coiling (like a cobra getting ready to strike), it's uncoiling.
...like a nice limp cobra that already striked ...wait... stroke? Like a cobra that just stroked out! ...wtf, is it struck? A cobra that suffered a paralyzing stroke that also probably caused some serious brain damage.
TL;DR: Things are really looking up

... but that kind of extensive downward price movement would be a bit deflating for me...
Dear Santa...
Yes.... real people have feelings.... even though I believe that it is a good practice to attempt to remove some of those feelings from trading... yet in the end, any of us can get worked up with our own expectations.... and that is where the "dear santa" comes in, or to whomever is our spiritual guide.

Remember that really good movie Titanic and how that nice cellist didn't let go of his cello even though he knew that he was going to die like Leonardo Dicaprio, who also died?
That was really sad, but really moving and beautiful too.

we hit $0 i'll cry. we hit $200, i'll be mehhhhh so so
If we go below $400, I may start to get worried... I am not sure whether I am going to cry at that point because at the moment, I have enough fiat budgeted to go down to $380, but that kind of extensive downward price movement would be a bit deflating for me, especially since there have been several unsuccessful attempts in the past couple of months to go below $400, and it was beginning to feel as if we had gotten passed that $400 price point.. at least absent some kind of catastrophe.
In any event, it seems that if we were to be heading in the sub $400 price territory, then we would likely not go straight down, and I would be able to buy and sell a bit in order to prepare my holdings a little bit before we were to arrive below $400 and in order to prepare further for possible worse scenarios and delays in the choo choo MF..

I'm not worried. The poll conclusively shows we're gonna be over $480 in a few days, and it hasn't been wrong yet.
I can afford to wait

The option with the least amount of votes is usually the one that's correct. If it plays out like that again we can expect the $440 option with only 2 votes and 1.4% of the total votes to be the price on May day.
