Our house was blacked out for seventeen hours after yesterday's wet, heavy mediterranean snow sent a few trees against the power lines at night, interrupted my WO session  Angry
Glad that we decided to build the house with better insulation, so we only were 1° of room temperature down today, and tonight will be a pretty cold night.
At noon we boiled sausages and eggs for the kids, using a small survival hobo oven which even works using semi-dry pieces of branches. No more than two eggs or wieners at once, but it worked pretty well.

All good things to those who wait
Even if it goes back to $10k, I am HODLing, will keep on buying coz I am proud to be the first 1% in this technology. Smiley

That escalated….. 10k talk etc…..


Someone talked a few pages back about going to 20K and now 10K. This escalated quickly indeed  Grin Meanwhile we are still 50% above the year low, so no big harm is done. The problem bears have is that hundreds of millions people and institutions are dreaming of cheap bitcoins, so any bigger dip is quickly bought. Surely, we can go lower, I don't argue about that. There are always enough fools around there to sell at any price. I've just watched an episode of Pawn Stars, where some moron went to Rick. The dialogue went like this:
-Rick: How much do you want for that?
-100K.
-Rick: I give you 3K.
-3.2K?
-Rick: Deal!

This sums up the behaviour of both the spot  and the derivate traders. I'm sure their loss is tremendous, but they continue to believe doing the same thing over and over again will give different result at the end. This is just the definition of stupidity.

So rich fucks ruined the 2021 bitcoin rally perhaps.  See y'all in 2025 for the next run up ?  Hope you all learned and took some money out to go skiing in Italy or something xD.  But we all know why we are here.

edit: with love,

I don't believe it will take that long.

My energy provider just now emailed me asking me to lock in my energy prices for the next 3 years.

They LITERALLY quoted £300 / $400 per month. More than double of what I pay now.
They reckon that is going to be a "good deal".  Shocked

The true realities of inflation are going to come to light this year I reckon.

We have seen nothing yet.

--> More money printing

--> More inflation

I think BTC is inevitable and cycles are a thing of the past.

Pretty much so. With major institutional investors NOT selling how much more can we dive? Just to remind you - we're about 40% from ATH already.

I don't see many of those whining tweets and posts anymore - ooohh guys I took a loan, sold my wife, kids and kidney and invested everything in Bitcoin now I'm broke fuck Bitcoin and please help me (Bitcoin ruined my life)!!!  Grin

He is not the only one, millions of small businesses ruined and will be dead for as long time.

Just got back from a horse pack trip of several days, up into the Andes.



If anybody wants the info to sign up for an Argentina horse packing trip, DM me.
I'm not profiting from this, just want to do the owner a favor.  His business has been basically dead since the pandemic.

USA, what happened to you guys? How can you let a bunch of utter cunts; Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, Kamala Harris talk this much shite for a year?

Truly astonished.

 Roll Eyes

Jan 6 2021 as bad as 9/11 or Pearl Harbour?
They have absolutely no shame at all.

Ridiculous comparisons.

I'd much rather have central political buildings burn rather than my local high street.
To me it is in fact quite understandable why people are angry with these complete and utter cunts in charge.

Even so, not much happened, and whatever did was most likely partially engineered.

What a circus and a bunch of clowns fronting this nonsense.

Goodbye stimulus, goodbye welfare....and the Fed wants to taper and raise rates this year too?

Good luck with that, Fed.



I guess the Build Back Better campaign for increased inflation around the world have another crisis waiting in the wings to replace the pandemic spend?

I'm surprised Biden hasn't (yet) called it Build bLack Better at some point.  Cheesy

So I'm watching as the price keeps bouncing off the $42.5k support level. When things are going the other way and repeatedly bouncing off a resistance level, it means to sell at that resistance expecting to buy lower because it's very likely to break through and leave you holding less.

There are generally two schools of thought with the repeated tests of support or resistance. The first being the more you test a level the weaker it becomes, the latter being the more you test a level the stronger it becomes. Personally I think the price structure is more relevant to answer this. Is price creating lower highs/lows while doing so, and therefore price is getting weaker, or higher lows/highs with price getting stronger?

I think more relevant in this case, given you talk of DCA, is to ignore the lower time-frames here, as they are not relevant to the longer term trend. Ideally ignore price all together when you DCA, stick to time-based analysis. Price could be up significantly by the end of the week, it could also be lower by next week. Likewise price could be lower by tomorrow and significantly higher by the end of the week.

Am I reading this wrong in thinking I should hold off a bit longer to buy a dippier dip? My DCA isn't due until tomorrow anyway, so kinda asking for support for resisting a reverse FOMO buy. (I have occasionally pulled the trigger on DCA buys a day early beat out a weekend pump) I'm just not used to Downs yet as I'm still a bit new at this.

If your DCA is due tomorrow, not today, then I'd recommend buying tomorrow - because that's when your DCA is due. Rushing in to buy falling knives is always very risky move. This will also help to maintain your disciple with DCA. If you start buying early, you're also likely to be buying late, therefore trying to trade price instead of time. I imagine JJG will otherwise give you all the relevant info on dollar cost averaging...

Remember all those wyckoff accumulation charts we saw in last year's mid year dip. It proved to be correct, I haven't seen any such analysis getting around now but things look similar. Has anybody seen any of that analysis done on this dip?

I seem to remember someone posting about it some days ago, basically saying that it looks good.

I was posting about it before when it looked like wyckoff accumulation on the 4hr chart, though unconfirmed, but this structure has now been broken with the recent drop:

Posting this again for some New Year Hopium. Recent bounce from $46K still looking like a "spring" for Wyckoff accumulation, even more so after creating new closing low on 4hr:


Based on the current price structure, it doesn't look like wyckoff to me, at least not on a line chart. On a candle chart, we'd be in Phase B at best, prior to creating a lower low:



As for current outlook, I'm personally not seeing $40K-$46K range as providing much support given the volume gap, even if a dead cat bounce could occur from here at any moment:



The $42.5K level is merely a "last line in the sand" before lower lows, similarly to how $46K acted as such after failing to find support and getting rejected by $48K MA support. The 0.236 fib retracement around $38K where volume lies and previous VPVR point of control around $33K-35K is more likely where a macro higher low would form imo, while taking more weeks to get there. Daily RSI is bearish, but not even oversold yet (like back in May) for reference sake, the Weekly RSI hasn't even turned bearish yet, as food for thought. There's plenty for room to the downside if price strength continues to weaken basically.

Ultimately price closed below the 50 Week MA again and the bears followed through, breaking both support trend-lines, as well as MA support. Doesn't look great to me anymore to put it simply. At least the on-chain data still looks good, but price structure looks pretty f**ked now. Truth is, Bitcoin has never been continually traded below the 50 Week MA within a bull market, so best to hope for in the mid-term would be further consolidation at higher levels. Still not seeing any argument for $20K-$25K levels, even if entirely possible now (70% drop from high to low), but otherwise not seeing any buyers at current prices either.

Ideally price drops hard and we get the crash over and done with as quickly as possible, somewhat regardless of how low it goes, rather than f**king around in no mans land. Just my opinion anyway.
