How long will it take for the Chinese to cash out of BTC and back into Yuan???

Ok, put in you predictions for where the market settles in the next few days.

Assuming most the Chinese cash out, I'd say $200-$300.

BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bitstamp hit the 400s.

The next battle will be if there is enough buy support to stay out of the 300s.

I think the Chinese are moving BTC into other exchanges to sell.

Bingo!

I admire the bulls. They are choosing to go out like the 300 from Sparta against a million Chinese bears.

Well Chinese exchanges can only sell now, what if the sell all the way to 0, will other exchanges follow?

The non-Chinese exchanges won't liquidate.

There will be a race to see who can buy at the bottom though.

Sheep marketplace thief finally had enough volatility to hide his dumping of his stolen coins???

Anyone care to guess the bottom on this one?

Hard to guess since China is still asleep. Sub-500 for sure.

When they wake up and see the price on the non-Chinese exchanges the fun will really begin.

Back in the 400s.

Wonder what is causing the selling.

Fear of what will happen when China wakes???

Hmmm...the market seems paralyzed at the moment.



17. Post 4035005 (copy this link) (by samsam) (scraped on 2020-04-04_Sat_11.42h):

There is almost no volume on the exchanges. Everybody is just waiting on the sidelines and watching BTC China.

Man this market is unpredictable. The Chinese seem to be selling off, but who knows.

Back in the 500s on BTC-e.

Looks like a bull trap.

Do I have this right?..

Bull Trap: price starts to rise quickly causing ppl to panic buy then shortly after the price dips much lower. They get trapped with the higher price btc instead of buying it on the dip


Yep.

There is also a bear trap: people sell a lot of btc quickly and then begin buying at the low en masse.

Thanks. Learning as I go.
Just to verify the bear trap: they panic sell thinking it's going to go down and then it rises?

so basically just opposites

Yes. They are are mirror strategies.
