This is pretty much my analysis too. I think there's some real powerful resistance at $90, and that breaking $80 is very unlikely unless something disruptive happens and panic is triggered (this is always a possibility with a bleeding edge technology like Bitcoin).

I therefore believe that unless something negative happens we're headed towards a consolidation phase and not a bear market. But the truth is that only time will tell.

Bid sum creeping up, but no greed in the bulls side. No fear in the bears side.

Nice.

I don't think we've ever seen quite this level of entrenchment after January.  This might be the stability we've been waiting for Smiley

Usually those who fall asleep or go out and enjoy life on low volume wake up / come back to a radically changed picture.

I'm not suggesting to not do that, though.

Interesting, but no scenario has the rate between $80 and $120 during the last week of May, which must have a high probability...

True, and that scenario exists (let's call it the "grey" scenario). That exhibition is not complete.

btw: I think "green" is most likely, followed by "grey", then "red", then "yellow". That might be based on wishful thinking, though.



I believe "grey" is most likely, then "red", then "green", then "yellow". Anyhow impossible to be sure ATM. Buying or selling now is just a gamble.

due to low volume I hope you guys don't mind a crosspost from here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2084624



to enter a bear market we need a lower low. Depending on timeframe there are 2 potential lows to break:

  • the $80 low on 5/3 (red)
  • the $50 low on 4/16 (yellow)

if we don't make a new low below $80, it's not a bear market but a correction (by investopedia definitions quoted further above). We could then enter a bull market or at least further consolodation pattern (green). Of course there's different options for "green", I just outlined roughly one of them. A break of the $170 top would clearly mean we're in a bull market again (both higher highs and higher lows would've been reached then)

I don't think we have to wait more than a month to see this resolved.

I dont think we will break out of $266 at least until November or December. That may even be too soon.

Hmm time will tell.

Next spike may be a long time coming.

Quoted for posterity  Cool

Fair enough Smiley Shall I define that as a 100% spike in say a month? And say late summer? I'm digging myself deeper aren't I? I'll continue to be vague. Worked well for Nostradamus Wink

Rampion: yes with regards to BTC volume it's WAY down but I personally think it's more relevant to look as currency volume now that there are a lot of new hands on board.

Yep, this is what I've been thinking for awhile. Nice to see it backed up with definitions and looking quite fancy.
