i will close this topic since this was for 2 months ago and more argument here is pointless since we all know the answer.
thanks for all the replies.
Topic: when do you think this rise is going to slow down/stop? (Read 2331 times)
You know what? Fuck I don't even know. I distance myself from bitcoin for a few months, and next thing you know this shit happens. I'm considering even buying tonight (1:45am atm) and selling in the morning. Bitcoin has been nothing but a roller coaster ride of emotions and FOMO and regret ugh.
I damn hope it slows down before it goes "to the moon" or some shit because I'd like to finally profit off of this to some extent. I'm currently at a $200 loss so I don't really consider myself a trader.
To answer your question though, I think we'll rise until mid January or something. Kinda wanting to buy right now but I'm also trying to keep my emotions in check before I do anything with large amounts of money.
Don't mind me. This year's been tough, is all.

It is impressive to be at a $200 loss when the price is at a 3 year high. If you locked in profits at a lower level, I wouldn't consider that a loss, just a missed opportunity. If you tried to short Bitcoin, then hopefully you learned a lesson. Now is not the time for that.
It was something like shorting, it was definitely a hard lesson to learn. The $200 loss is just a lot more heartbreaking if you think of what it's value could've been by now if I just hodl'd it.
I will slow down when huobi/okcoin will be finally investigated for fraud.
Or their inside traders will favour short position.
Nothing else will influence this rise to stop, and TA is useless in a non-free centralized market

Every exchange employee/operator with access to all the real time information, is purely basing its trades on the information that no one else but themselves have access to. In that regard, every exchange can be held responsible for allowing whatever entity to make use of insider information. If I was in such a position, then I would of course gladly welcome every bit of insider information that will help me to maximize my profits. It happens everywhere.
The day after the bitcoin hits $1000, eventually it will lower than depending on the people who will sell it.
And will rise up again for the following months if it has a low price since many people will buy and wait again for the next bitcoin rise.

No, it still rises up and now there are not any obstacles to stop the price unless hacking big exchanges or political issues.
I think the price will be at 1200$ in march or april of 2017. if yes, I can get a big earning from holding bitcoins.

I have no idea when this meteoric rise will stop but at some point, inevitably it will. Maybe people will start selling at $1000 as it acts as some kind of psychological sell alarm.
Which instantly tells me the whales know this and are ready for that which is why they have taken it so high to begin with. That sell 1k sell off from Joe could hurt a lot of people when it rockets like never before. 1-0 to the pumpers.
When bitcoin reach $1000 it will be the reason of bitcoin being stop from rising because im sure the price will drop back down because the bitcoin system determine when does the use cash out their bitcoin so theyre gonna make it drop down so the users will invest again on bitcoin
The price of bitcoin is keep increasing really it is very hard to predict because user base for bitcoin community keep increasing.When there is an huge demand for bitcoin and the supply of coins is very less means than definitely the price will increase. Many people out there are keep holding the bitcoins for their future needs.
for now, I also predict that the price of bitcoin will increase slowly. Well, I feel that bitcoin prices will stabilize or stop increasing when the price of bitcoin, have reached $ 1,000. but, people waiting for higher prices, and it makes them hold their bitcoin in a very long time, to wait for the target price. 
The last few days bitcoin prices rise rapidly, even in my opinion fairly high. But today I see bitcoin price movement slowly began to decline and began to slow down. I did not know it was going to last a long time or not, but I believe bitcoin prices would still rise up to several months. Perhaps the price will start to slow down if it reaches $ 1,000.
seems like my answer was today 
because so far we have hit the slow down button today as price is playing around at $950 and going up and down around it.
now the hardest part is speculating which way it will go after this?
and i am talking about the short term, long is obviously going to rise!

I'm hoping for the same pattern as we've seen around christmas evening!
We dropped from 920 to the high 850s and bounced back up pretty fast and strong, continuing the uptrend.
So imo we shouldn't go lower than 920 from the top which had been 980.Right now we are back up to 950.
Would be awesome to see an attempt to pass the 1000 with the beginning of the new year.
Let's see how it will play out the next 2-3 days.

Not easy to tell. The dump will follow but maybe not very big and not immediately after hiting 1000$. I expect to go above 1000 for a hundred dollars or two and then a minor correction could follow. But again that depends on so many factors on the market.
I have no idea when this meteoric rise will stop but at some point, inevitably it will. Maybe people will start selling at $1000 as it acts as some kind of psychological sell alarm.
But I guess some people will wait for new ATH. Because last time when bitcoin was hitting four digit price level for the first time, it was not immediately taking U turn. I'm expecting same to happen like bitcoin may set a new all-time new high price levels this time too. At the same time, it may continue its rarely if new people keep on coming to invest in.

I believe we will pass 1000 $ within a few days, could be tomorrow even. Then we will struggle for a few weeks to break ATH. If that happens there is no telling where this is going. Moon is a posibility. After living through both bubbles of 2013 I know how explosive bitcoin can move.
Oh man, how I've missed this!
Oh man, how I've missed this!
I would imagine it will start to slow down come early February like it did early this year. I do remember regretting not buying some then when it was increasing at a frantic rate to stop at $750. 
Now you can imagine my state right now.

Bitcoin has a history of repeated bubbles - though each bubble peaks much higher than the previous bubble.
We've had five so far.
Based on the past, we might get to $1500 before it pops.

What type of car is in your mind? I know it's a bubble but the same bubble is the reason for the rise and people knowing there is a price bubble causes even more inflation but when the big holders enter for big profit they start to sell in bulks that is when the bubble starts to shrink but never explodes.

It will stop rising when one of the bigger alt exchanges bail out or the btc exchanges. Or my theory is when a dark web site goes down. I'm thinking alphabay have had a good run lol
well of course if there's a large exchange will be hacked again it's not only going to stop on rising it's also going to bring a big crash to bitcoin and I think if there's one of the dark web sites goes down it will affect the price very much . as far as I know dark web has a big circulation of bitcoin .
will top out around $3000 per coin next year, unless some fundamentals change significantly.
Haha and you don't think we will have some dark markets or exchanges go down before that?
