Did anybody notice the China sell off?



My current theory is that China's private credit engine/shadow banking sector has stalled. So Chinese Btc speculators have been forced to liquidate.

Any other views out there?  Thanks.

Exotic theory at best. FUD at the worse. I think a few things hit at the same time and there is a manipulator on the prowl who knew this would be an opportune time because Finex is in the process of reducing and balancing their margin slightly. The question is, how voracious this guy's appetite is.

Why it happens so often that a few thing hit at the same time in a bearish market? Is it managed by a manipulator? Or anyone give me a philosophical explanation?

I can give you a psychological one: It's all in your head. All kinds of things happen all the time, but the pattern recognition engine that is the mind mostly ignores it until it can link things together in a narrative. A lot of the time, that narrative is entirely fictional.

It's not persuasive. If shadow banking sector stalled, the Chinese security market wouldn't have had been so firm.

The crypto bulb popped, no fresh money coming in. Is it simple as that? I've got to hodl with my average cost high in the sky.

It looks like were bouncing off of 490 nicely here, budging lower seems to be out of the question at this point.

Getting ready to pull out the rocketships this week  Grin

Jinx.... hehehehe. Not a big deal. Looked more dramatic than it was. The question is what follows next. Book is thin and this is clearly manipulation, though. As long as we don't catch the margins we'll pop right back up.

This is definitely a fearful retest of 500, but the longer we stay down here and keep testing on low volume the better...

I doubt that we get another big margin selloff after this BFX shakeout

I actually think we'll see another margin sell off in the next day or two, though. There is clearly somebody prowling for just that. I should have just stayed short the whole time. Really kicking myself right now. Also, it really wouldn't take much to do it, anymore. The order book thinned out as people migrated downwards to catch a margin. Only 1500 or so to 480. =S

Then again, everything calmed down a bit after LTC crossed four. Hopefully that just holds. It's easier to make money going up than going down and we are plenty low enough already to have a nice ride up.

I wouldn't mind if it would turn up this way, but so far things are looking rather bearish Sad. Where are all the people screaming in this forum what a bargain under $600 coins are, not talking about under $500, which we were not supposed ever see again?

selling our bodies and souls for more fiat, we can  buy em back later with bitcoin lol
