Well, I always like to keep a positive mindset while looking at Bitcoin price charts. I ain't talking as a maximalist or something; I speak from an objective assessment.
Then you are not a good investor. You should not be a blind Bitcoin lover, it is smart to know when it will buy or sell so that you can plan your investments accordingly. This does not mean you don't love Bitcoin, you are just being smart about its trading and holding.
I don't think that bitcoin going below ~$17k would be disastrous at all. Sure, it wouldn't be nice, but that's far from disaster level. For me personally, as long as we don't reach levels lower than previous cycle low (slightly below $3k) we are good.
If you know the true principles of trading, you would know that breaking a year's low is disastrous to any market, and Bitcoin is not an exception. This is not a bluff, it might record another low that might amaze everyone.
Well for me at this point anything is possible when making a price predicton for Bitcoin. I suspect many of us thought the price per Bitcoin would fall much further below 20k and we are very happy it hasn't.
I'm not the biggest fan of making negative BItcoin price predictions and I am still Bullish so I will say no to your question at the current point.
This is speculation, it is not an affirmation that it must happen. Anyone dealing with BTC should learn this, they need to be a good speculator of how the market behaves and what it might do at a certain period of time. This is the rightest thing to do, rather than being optimistic all the time. What if the belief fails? The protection of your investment should come first.
People predicting for heavy fall is just basing for fear indicator they see on bitcoin but actually its hard for it to dump for more knowing that many people are there willing to do but backs and support bitcoin from falling so I guess we will not go below $17k which is worse case scenario. But rather we might comeback to above $20k on next couple of months.
You are missing a lot of facts here, have you forgotten that many things can cause the fall of Bitcoin? Dumping is not the only thing that can cause the fall, many people might hold it but futures traders might sell it. Which will still cause a fall because of the negative sentiment in the market. Not to talk of the inflation news that is not favouring it?
