The top of the cycle could be right but $3,000 per
BTC in October 2019?
$4,000 ish at the halving?
Overly bearish & very unlikely.
Yes indeed, 2019 looks nothing like on the graph.
I'm tired of seeing this old (07.07.2018) stupid graph.
Hopefully by Oct 2019 people will stop reposting it.
Fair enough, dawg.

2023? I aint got time for this shit. 50k next year and I am out with 75%. I am 38 and should start to enjoy life

Haha!
If you can wait until 2021 I think we’ll see $100,000 per coin. Glad to see you’d always keep some in reserve, good choice. You just know there’s going to be some HODLERS who sell everything at the next ATH & watch in horror when we hit six figures.
Bro you are so optimistic. 2020 is almost there. 100k per coin in 2021? Would love it, but based on what?

I think we will finally see 11k again. Will probably sell at 11.5k (bought at 9.5k) and buy back below 10k if I can.

Are you playing with 100% of you BTC stash, or some smaller amount? Frequently it is not good to sell too much of your stash and then wait for the price to come back down to your selling point. That's what happened to Roach at $700 and that is what happened to jonoiv at $6k.
Not 100%, I keep 70% for long term and "play" with the 30% remaining. Of course it comes with a risk, but it can be a good way to lower your average price. I never trade daily though, more like 1 or 2 times a month (at most).

Then please read the very first post of this thread, bro. Read it. It mentions TA. This is supposed to be a thread when we share trading strategies.
My +24% profit was made in 1 month. What do you know about what I did in January or February this year? Few pages ago I said that I was trading at least once a month, so I obviously I did some profitable trades in the last 8 months, bro.
What's the point of this thread if the sole purpose is to post all day about "I am still holding since 2012, not selling yet!" ? ? ? ?

Nice profit but why do you want all that dirty fiat? I much prefer to HODL
bitcorn!I’m here for a long time, amigo. That 24% fiat profit won’t look so good in a couple of years

My thinking now is that the price may go down close to 10k, then I will probably buy again. But to each their own.

Whatever works for you mate. I bought most of my coins at 3 figures & still haven’t sold. I respect if you want to play the market & buy low, sell high but I don’t like to think about the risks of selling & buying back more expensive if it goes up.
Just try to always keep some that you don’t trade with.
I keep 70% very long term and trade with the 30% remaining. It's not that difficult once you get used to it.

Name of the pizza is where I am right now. Anyone recognize this?
Did they give you a shot of a weird liqueur free at the end of the meal? I went to a (very average) Barcelona restaurant in February last year that looked exactly like that one and gave me a crappy shot I didn't really want - red, I think. It was pretty empty and that end was divided from the room by a sort of banister. I think it was even a step up from the room.
Just er... wondering if it's a weird coincidence.
Nope. They didn't give me anything like that. The restaurant itself isn't that crappy but it surely isn't for the bitcoin lords neither. :d Just a place to fill your stomach for €20 (probably overpriced, like I said, tourist trap) It is on "la rambla" street and also where my hotel is at.
I wanted to find the goddamn bitcoin atm at the port yesterday, couldn't do it.

I need a photo there. Not leaving BCN without that damn photo.
In many restaurants with traditional Catalan cuisine, there are 2 typical liquors from Catalonia, they are served after the meal, the Moscatel, sweet wine to accompany the dessert, cheese, nuts and also the Ratafia, it is a digestive.
Maybe It was my bad. I ate, paid and left without waiting anything. Maybe they were going to gimme my small drink

no big deal anyway. I can digest with beer just fine.
$11.3k daym why don't it move? Make a move dammit. I'll be happy even if its a downwards move.
It will be a downwards move IMO.

As said previously in this thread, sold last week around 11.6k, now placing an order buy at 10.6k.
Confident on this one.

It's funny how many characters are similar in Chinese and Japanese, yet they do not pronounce the same at all. Only the 3rd character is Japanese, the 4 others are originally Chinese characters, I can read them, know what they mean, yet have no idea how to pronounce them in Japanese. On a side note, indeed the floppy disc icon should be replaced by something else, it's 2019 ffs

It's hilarious now that I think of it, it does look like a vending machine. Amazing how the beverage can still stands after falling from like a meter high.

Because he is a chart pundit. But there is another solution to his linear problem, besides a crash to 10600 now. If he draws a parallel line at 11400 he will get another crossing point in a week or two if that is what he is looking for.

Oh dear, such n00bs are cracking me up with their charts skills

I would bet that they will hardly get more than 30% profit in a good bull year with a 400%+ increase like the present. And then they will come here full of pride and joy and teach the holders with 100x profit.

Hilarious!
Thanks for your support, bro!
On a serious note, with my current job, after rent, food and personal expenses I can save circa 700 euros a month, on average. Since we all agree the price of BTC will eventually get to 50k, right? Then I should buy 700 euros of BTC per month, no matter the price, as long as it stays below 50k, correct?
Now that sounds like a great strategy. Will make me rich in 2 or 3 years time

Yep. You mastered it. That's also exactly what I am doing. But I am not sure about the $50k part. I will dump some when it reaches 50k that's for sure but probably not all of them. I believe it can do a fomo fump to $80k+ but it will stay there only for 1 or maybe 2 days before collapsing. If your coins happens to be not on an exchange at that time, you are effed. Or prepare to pay $500 for a transaction.

Edit: I realized you are thinking to invest all your free money. That's not exactly what I do. I invest %20-40 of that free money but it used to be higher when btc was below $10k. At some point I was going all in with my free money but not now. This shit is complicated and I don't think anybody knows what he is doing. If btc goes to zero right now, oh man that would be so big it would trigger a world war. Think about all those people and their life savings in btc. :O
Fair enough, I appreciate the constructive opinion.
But the difference between guys like me, and arrogant guys like ivomm (ivommit?) is that the second lot will likely never dare to sell on time.
I have sold several times since I first bought in 2017, and what was 1 BTC originally became 1.38 BTC with time. That's what
"know-it-all" ivommit does not understand

Bitcoin price has some many ups and downs that it is quite easy to do, much easier than on the stock market.
I won't lie, sometimes I had to wait 8 months for the price to go where I wanted, but it always went there eventually. I dared to press the sell button and that will help in the future, people who never pressed the sell button may feel incredibly nervous to the point that maybe they will never sell until BTC disappeares? (let's be honest BTC dying is also a possibility).

PS: about the edit part, I was obviously sarcastic about buying 700 euros of BTC per month (my average monthly savings), that would be incredibly dumb to do. No need to explain why.

Seems like Bitcoin has become a stablecoin at around $11,400 haha

Because it is around a support at $11300 but at the same time the short term trend should be going down to circa $10800. Which means traders are not sure what to do. A lot of indecision. We have seen this before. Could remain around $11300-$11400 for a while. Middle term trend is looking very nice though.

Great idea to buy with your income.
What are you going to do? Are you borrowing? Mortgaging the house? selling everything in order that you can make 5x in a few years?
You do know that 5x is not guaranteed, too, right?
I was being sarcastic. The whole forum has no idea if BTC will reach 50k one day, of course we all wish it does.
I was replying to a rude post from ivomm, I got mocked for prediction 10.6k two days ago, and here we are. Yes maybe I act "proud" of my prediction but when you get shit for no reason it's at least reasonable to acknowledge you talked shit and had no clue

It happens. Helps to be more humble too.
In the meantime, I now buy again, sold at 11.6k, buy at 10.6k as planned last week

Don't know what will be the next move.

Good morning WO!
Observing @ $10,470
Market was $11k+ but now under $11k however does it matter?
1BTC = 1BTC
As usual traders are the biggest factor dictating where the price will move, always been like that as long as there is bad news or good news. Well been like that since 2018 at least.
Well I saw this news about SEC delaying decisions on Bitcoin ETF proposals but don't think the market still cares about that. Unless it gets approved, will be bad for BTC but good short term for the price IMO.

Do you hold bitcoins?
Yeas I hold Bitcoin try to hold on large amount Big mistake in my life when bitcoin price $3300 sell bitcoin. trying hold bitcoin with use Stop-loss.
It's all relative, bro. You sold at $3300 but did you buy at $100? If so, it's still a huge profit, +3000%. If you bought above $5k then sorry for your loss.

He also predicts a price of 100k USD for sometime in 2021. This I'm not sure but we have witnessed crazy things two years ago, so anything is possible.

I was looking at the speculation board round about January 2017
This is a speculation post I found which gives some indication of how wrong we can be.
This guy/gals $10k prediction (as many others) seemed ridiculous.....
If only they knew they would be hitting $19k that year.....

Other posts were hoping for a $5k to $6k bitcoin and $1k to $2k was reasonable.
So if we now shout $100k is stupid, then don't forget that it could be like 2017 and we might go to a ridiculous $200k-$400k or even higher.

2k is a joke
it's 10k
Do you really think bitcoin will reach 10k dollar anytime soon, I think we first see a dump to around 500 dollar and than see an upwards trend to 2000 dollar at most. even 200$ is also hard to reach in early future. it must take another halving.
My boss was hacked in April 2017. Ransomware.
They asked for 2 BTC, he sent them to these assholes because he could not afford his web service to be offline for too long. I hope these cunts cashed out to fiat straight away, don't want to believe they made like 35k at the end of that year.

Bitcoin is in a bull trend. People calling for a bull trap don't realize that it just cannot be in the 8 month long bull trap. If this was the case and bitcoin turns bearish on the longterm chart, it would be the first time in bitcoin history. So it's very unlikely. When no coiners realize that, it will be probably too late for them.
Depends. At 50k it's still worth buying if it soon goes to 100k. It's all relative, never forget that.
But it sucks for people who bought at 19k, I am sure a lot of them sold eventually to settle for a loss. Probably the big majority. It's hard to take decisions in these moments, it's hard not to get emotional. History shows that during heavy dump, the best decision is to do nothing.

at $3500 a few months ago he was waiting for $1000

Of one of my close friends was waiting for $100, he is a total noob though but it was still funny to witness such naivety. Told him around $4000 that
he should buy now, he didn't. Of course last month I received a Whatsapp message from him
damn I should have bought

Just curious, why silver and not gold?
Gold has been a better investment most of the time.
1) The gold to silver ratio chart highly favors silver
2) Silver is the most artificially downward rigged commodity on the entire planet in the futures market and the goal is to buy low sell high
3) There's something like 1/4th the amount of above ground silver now as during the 1980's metals bull run while there's twice as much above ground gold since then. Hard to quantify the exact supply numbers, but they favor a massive silver spike moreso than gold in any type of 'free market'.
4) To prevent silver from being depleted and disappearing like it's current trajectory, the price will eventually have to go to several hundred dollars an ounce to warrant recycling in things like electronics
5) In any type of monetary metals revaluation, the west has a huge shortfall in gold with probably somewhere between 0 to 2000 tons only, so would likely attempt to buffer the gold shortfall with silver valued at a high ratio like 10-20:1 instead.
6) All other things being equal, silver has better fundamentals than gold due to having more use cases. Commodity money works under the context that if you hoard the entire supply, people somewhere actually need the commodity resource for something and you can ask whatever the market can bear. Conversely, since Bitcoin is not a real commodity or resource, if you hoard all 21 million the entire planet can just laugh at you and you have no power over anyone or anything.
Thanks for the constructive reply. That's what this forum is all about.

LOL bro.
Some charts were posted in previous pages, if you stand back a little and watch, you can see BTC price follows a certain logic. On the short term it can be unpredictable but not so much in the middle or long term. Those who are skeptical about BTC like to say it's pure gambling, like lottery, because they make the mistake to compare with the stock market. They should stand back a little, read some charts, learn some things from market psychology too... and they'll see the light, bro.

The first major resistance for the shorterm is marked with the yellow area. Around 10.800 Usd to 11.000 Usd, it depends when it gets there.
The first minor resistance is marked with the orange area. We are currently already there. Around 10.500 Usd.
Last few days, price follows exactly this chart. You have to be honest, sometimes if you want to trade BTC and make 2 or 3% profit, it is relatively easy. I got shit on for saying that a month ago here, but to each their own, competent traders can earn millions over the year by trading BTC.

So sky high prices will be the unexpected

Now go and troll some rookie-newbie threads or something, in here people like you has no voice

Hmmm. Looks like you're the "newbie" around here which would explain your discomfort at bearish predictions which go against the run of prevailing hype. Not saying it "will" happen, just pointing out that it's what longer term charts predict, it's what's happened before and it's what all the hopium in here
isn't expecting = ergo, it has at least an even to fair chance of occurring

I don't mind being much newer as you, really not ...i'm also in
BTC only from when it was recovering from its long bearmarket and I entered the market around 350-ish $
I also do know i'm nothing of a tech advanced thinker, speaker around
BTC and so on .... I do know I will have among the strongest hands that can be and I have the long term belief, so whatever happens i'm in and I stay in, imo thats the most important, I also have some coin on the side to use in daily things where and when I can ...
Though I don't mind bearish thought and thinking, maybe I was out of line a bit with my answer (post)
But I think there is a member with a similar name as yours that really trolls, so I do think I made a mistake if thats the case ... again excuse me.
OMG checked toknormal's post history - this guy is a clinical case. He's a veteran shitcoiner since 2013!

He's probably more knowledgeable than you though.
You are welcome.

is there enough cash for $50k BTC. I mean, if holders will sell at $50k, can exchanges and all others business pay sellers?
If the supply and demand is real, then yes they should have the funds, if someone sells at 50k, someone else buys at 50k, unless the exchange platforms bring most of the liquidity themselves, but don't have any reliable info about this.
I bet a few exchanges perform arbitrage too.

No country in Europe right now prefer using Bitcoin over credit card , and you are quoting freaking Italy, one of the least modern country in Europe, using Bitcoin over credit card for online shoppping?

and to buy what exactly since 99% of goods cannot be purchased with Bitcoin?

The article I read in my native language say that Paypal is number 1 in Italy and apparently big majority of people use Paypal because their credit card is linked to the Paypal account, otherwise of course they would use the credit card directly over Bitcoin. This article posted is a great example of twisting facts. I am positive on Bitcoin, but saying Italians use more often Bitcoin than a credit card to pay online makes no sense, shouldn't need any article to know that

So this analysis says BTC ends 2019 between 8.7k and 10.6k which is a large range, however December 2020 we get to 20k. Hopefully.

Bitcoin - The lies! Learn to get the truth out of the charts

The death cross is here to claim its victim. You can look at a chart and not get much out of it or you can truly try to get the truth behind what the whales and algos want you to believe. You will be extremely successful once you can see the true intention of the market beyond the lie that it is trying to convince you of.
The fact is that we needed a reset to a great "Buy" zone, at least that's the only way I am jumping in. I am a client at 7K or $4500. Your best bet is to continue to sit and wait. Our strategy is to find a low risk / high reward opportunities and milk it. The two opportunities that I see right now are marked with bright green X's on the chart.
DONT FORGET TO FOLLOW ME AND HIT THE LIKE BUTTON.
WHAT WAS HAPPENING THIS WEEK?
BTC was trying to fool you. You always want to find those little battlegrounds to see which side has the momentum, YOU HAVE TO DIG THE TRUTH OUT OF THE CHART. Right now the bears have it, it shows in that it is easier to go down than up. At this point, BTC has to be pumped up constantly and if not, it starts to range and then falls. Rewind to yesterday, the chart below shows the 6H timeframe and that triangle showed that after ranging sideways for a while BTC was going to fall. It's had a tough time going back over the 50MA so the signs of this big drop were there even though we were looking at a bull flag . I want you to pay attention here: The whales/Algos whatever you want to call them were printing a perfect bull flag (which for those that believe chart patterns it means we are going up), and I guarantee you that a lot of traders fell for it. Just as this flag was in the process of printing it was obvious that we were going down, why? because a reset is needed before we move up, and the next move up will be very strong so it needs a big dip before it happens. So what's next for BTC? It will take a rest at around $8500.

So as simple as I can put it, what were the signs that this bull flag was a trap?
1 We are under a Death Cross
2 We are on a secondary downtrend
3 We have not made a higher high in a long time
4 Volume is down
5 We are in the middle of nowhere, it makes little sense to take off from here
We are even under a death cross on the Crypto Total Market Cap

When would it be a good time to jump in? Very simple.
If we hit complete bottom (Mother of all buy zones)
If we hit the Optimal buy zone
If we exit the downward channel .
THE TREND: Going Down, we have not made a new higher high
THE OUTLOOK: Expected to go down, surprising if it goes up.
BE SAFE AND FOLLOW ME TO BECOME PROFITABLE AND STAY AHEAD OF THE CURVE.
from source:
https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSDT/znSa6n84-Bitcoin-The-lies-Learn-to-get-the-truth-out-of-the-charts/7k is very possible. before we go up to 8.5k. I think 2019 ends around 8-9k but we could get below that in between.
Then 2020 first semester will be pretty quiet, nothing exciting, until second half of 2020 when the price will skyrocket to 20k.
My best advice right now would be to do nothing, watch the price everyday, wait. If it goes down to 7k, wait again, if at the end of the year it goes back up to 8k then buy the most you can.

Frankly it is not looking good at the moment, I would even say it's time to sell, and buy back below 8k. I am pretty sure we are heading towards 7k-ish but hopefully we never go back below 6.4k. If we go back below 6.4 there will be a lot of blood (not like the movie).
Then in the middle term there should be a bounce back above 10k (I hope) but breaking above 11k and most importantly above 12.4k will be very tough.
Just hoping the halving will make things move to our advantage, but the technical analysis is looking very ugly in the short term

Well the big difficulty will be to break that white line that you just posted, if we break it of course it's looking very good.
Anyway, for me things are quite simple at the moment. Bear market is clear now. It's not the time to buy, just monitor, maybe even sell and buy back below 8k. There is nothing to indicate we break that white line. It is just gambling at this stage.
BUT the good thing is, I will monitor the price for month, I don't think we break this line before a few months, but if we break above 12.4k next year I will put all my savings into BTC for a target at 19k or 20k. If we break 12.4k if won't be a question that we go to 15k or 16k, we will get there easily. That would be the easiest money ever. Just hope we get there.

You make our current situation sound so dire, Bossian.
Do you remember that on October 25, we had 42% in 12 hours from $7,300 to $10,300, and if we get back to $7,300 over the following month or so (which would bring us to November 25), do you think that we are worse off merely because we went back to the starting point of what had happened in 12 hours?
Well, we gotta get back to $7,300 first, I suppose, but I doubt that the situation is as dire as you are making it out to be, even if we were to get below $6,400. What's so special about $6,400? Remember from April 1, to June 27, we went from $4,200 to $13,880? $6,400 does not even bring us back down to $4,200, but we would have to get down to $6,400 first, and we seem quite a ways off from $6,400, but hey, things happen fast in bitcoinlandia, so I would be prepared to buy, instead of thinking about selling and then end up being wrong in the even that BTC prices were to stop going down... .and surely we see those kinds of things happening in bitcoinlandia.
We have jonoiv still waiting for sub $6k for more than a 6 months, and we have some others who are still hoping for sub $3k, which yeah, they might get lucky, but I would rather be buying on the way down rather than taking some actions (such as selling now) and then regret it later.
I was looking closely yesterday at the technical analysis and it's clear the major support is around 6.4k, that's why this price is scary (for me, I may be wrong), on the other hand the price of 12.4k is very exciting. Of course we can go back above 10k, I hope so.
Frankly, I bought at the worst moment (9.3k), if we go close to 10k I will sell. Because right now I am not confident. BUT after selling everything I got at 10k I will wait for 12.4k. If we pass that price then I buy again even more (won't care about the small lack or earning between 10k and 12.4k because it won't matter much. I will feel much better and safer in selling at 10k and then wait, because above 12.4k it's basically free money (strong resistance). If we pass 12.4k then the long term trend is looking crazy good. My personal opinion of course

best of luck to us.

If that system works for you, then so be it. I cannot be a hater, but seems like you are engaging in a lot of reliance on what is supposedly in the charts and your interpretation of that, and again, if you have gotten both good at it, and also able to employ systems in which you profit from either price direction, then you are likely in a good place, yet to me, it seems that you are kind of relying on price movements in one direction or another in the short term and historically, we have seen so many times that a variety of purported experts get the short term wrong - that's why I mentioned those two recent upwards explosive spurts.
Sure it is possible that anything can happen, but betting on down in what appears to be a bull market seems quite risky.
Yeah, I know there are several folks that are asserting that we are currently NOT in a bull market, but seems like wishful thinking to me. Even bitcoin does not seem to change back and forth from bear to bull to bear to bull... so if you are engaged in defining bear and bull in terms of short swings, I have difficulties relating, especially when it seems that our that there are pretty decent odds that our early 2019 price move from $4,200 to $13,880 had demonstrated that we had gotten out of our 2018 bear market.
Of course, we do not know for sure until after the fact, but if you are trying to predict exactly the correction level in a bull market versus trying to assert that we are in a bear market, and either theory seems filled with lots of risk.
Also, I don't play around with BIG plays like you, but buying at $9,300 might not be so bad if you had sold somewhere in the supra $11k or even higher, but yeah I suppose that there are a lot of scenarios that buying at $9,300 might not seem to be too good, unless you are just getting into bitcoin.
If you are just getting into bitcoin then buying at $9,300 might not be bad at all. Just keep buying, and accumulating. Selling above $10k seems quite risky, but then you get into the same issues about trying to figure out what is happening, because there are scenarios in which BTC prices might shoot the fuck past $13,880 and go into the sub $19k arena before correcting all the way back down to $10k, but that does not seem to be a scenario that your system anticipates very well... but surely such a price performance or some other weird and unexpected price movement could happen... bitcoin is known for such weird price movements, and I doubt that it is going to stop with the weird price movements any time soon, at least maybe not until BTC prices are well in the area of gold market cap or even quite higher before the manipulation forces will become more debilitated in their abilities to fuck with bitcoin's volatility.
I appreciate your opinion.
I first got into Bitcoin in July 2017, was very lucky that year obviously. But since February 2018 I am more into technical analysis and trading. What I saw in 2018 was mostly the price of Bitcoin dictated by trading tools and not much else. But well of course nothing is written in the stone. I am just very confident about this 12.4k price that we need to break. I am curious to see how it unfolds.

Quite confident there is a bounce back from there though. It is a major and strong support.

The halvening effect comes after halving and not before. Until then a lot of things can happen. There is a long time still to go.
How do they manage to know when Bitcoin halving is?
Or does Bitcoin BlockChain has given date of halving

Every time we dip a bit stronger than usual,
most of WO is scared shitless with their "reasonable" worst-case bullshit estimates. So disappointing, especially given the size and history of the thread.

I see no panic around. Do you?
Right, and stuff like "no movement till 2024 halving" is a rational opinion or assessment after such a dip? It's fear and panic disguised as staying calm. Maybe I made the mistake of assuming that the average person here is smarter than a monkey?
"No new ATH" is not equal to "no movement", unless you consider 2x or even 3x ups and downs as "no movement". The problem is not the current dip, but the trend. The end of the cyptowinter is not confirmed and, unfortunately, past performance is no guarantee of future results.
All of what you said confirms what I mentioned prior. There is no "winter", just inexperienced bears trying to use old-world TA on the new world and hope they see a few lines.

Pathetic really, but I guess if you got nothing better to do it is what it is.
Time will tell of course, but it's funny how you refute the relevance of technical analysis when just two weeks ago many traders predicted a down trend with the support at 6.4k, and guess what the support is 6.4k is real. It clearly shows today. It's not imaginary stuff. It's pure fact.
I am not talking about these bearish predictions based on nothing, but these short term bearish predictions based on facts.
10 days ago I wrote a post to advise selling around 8.X and buy back below 7k. Then I said I would buy again (I just did at 6870) as I am confident the price bounce back from there.
This was purely based on TA and nothing else. There are a lot of experienced traders predicting this 7k price for like 2 or 3 weeks now. It happened just like they said. But by reading your post it seems nothing can convince you that TA can be relevant. On the other hand, a simple "to the moon" analysis can convince many. The irony....

Almost two years of mostly under 10k (and months under 5k) after 20k spike is no winter? That is an interesting point of view...
To be fair, many Bitcoin holders are hoping for a nice profit in 5 or 10 years from now. It's possible, I think 2 years is small, from what I can imagine 2020 will be poor, but 2022-2025 could be very good. I will myself keep a bit of BTC and also some ETH just in case.
But short term TA is relevant, it proved many times, that was my point.

Let it go man; that attitude will age you prematurely. This thread has morphed into a community-based, semi-autonomous chat board - the initial post has historical value only. There's only one rule in here and I can't, for the life of me, remember it.
I am actually totally fine with that and not upset at all. However it's still a fact that this forum section is called "speculation" therefore all kind of speculations should be allowed without being called "pathetic" especially when they end up being accurate.

The fractal posted by NebraskanGooner on Twitter has been very accurate since September. There should be a bounce back towards 9k-ish in early 2020. I would wait for this price. Bitcoin price is not going below 6.5k this year anyway (or perhaps for a very short time mid-december).
Buying (again) more Bitcoin below 7k is a pretty safe bet in the short term. My opinion.

Nice to see this pump has scared all bear trolls away

Five digits by Monday next week?
The trend is still clearly bearish, bro.
It's a bounce back. I think there will be another low soon around 6.5k and another bounce back towards 9k (nice one) for beginning of next year. But the trend clearly showing an ABC correction (zigzag) towards the 4k-ish direction, it would be silly to buy now, I'd rather wait until next year.
Of course there is always a possibility to break above 12k (that would mean 20k after that) but the probability of this scenario is very low right now.
Long term holders have nothing to worry about but that means very long term (2025 and after that), but for 2020 no reason to be optimistic. I will personally sell at 9k and wait for another buy point which would be around 4k next year.
PS: there is nothing "trolling" about calling bear trends. It is crystal clear the trend is bearish right now and will last for at least 6 months.

Towards 4k? That would be sad indeed. What do you think about bouncing off 5.2k and forming inverse head and shoulders (with 5.2k during early 2018 and 3k during the last winter)? As for short term - does waiting for another 6-6.5k low and buying at that level to sell during bounce make sense? I am talking about small amounts, my main stash is for long-term holding.
Yes, the trend is undoubtedly bearish. I have been reading this thread for a long time and I lost count of "last opportunity to buy below 5 digits" and "buy the dip" posts during bear market...
Buying at 6.5k is certainly good for a short term profit. If not too greedy of course, I mean small profit like 20-25%, 6.5k is a very strong support for now.
About next year, "bouncing off 5.2k" well the ABC correction clearly shows we will go below 5k, but perhaps we will stay around 5.5k for a while but for me we definitely go below 5k at some point next year.
I am curious to see how 2020 unfolds. If this prediction becomes true then we'll use the same tools for 2021-2025.
About the chart posted by alevlaslo, I like it.

I like it because it confirms the bearish trend for 2020 but it's a more a long term prediction anyway which looks bullish. I am convinced Bitcoin price will be very good in 2025 but there should be a lot of blood in 2020 and 2021 which many holders losing hope.

worst TA ever. below $15000 until 2024, you must be completely retarded.
To be honest I found this chart quite realistic, remember how the market was until the all time high in December 2017.
Then the massive correction, don't forget, 19k to 3k in 12 months, never forget that.
Waiting until 2023 actually before seeing 15k again is not delusional if we see the long term trend. Also it would be healthy IMO. What's interesting is what follows: years 2025 and 2026 would be epic.

Please forget about the halving by the way this is a delusional bet.
I for once place a sell order at 9k and wait for next year scenario but a price of 1k would be fantastic. That's a very long term scenario though. I would even say 1k would be necessary for another big peak at 20k (and possibly above).
Mate, this sounds like delusional bear after drunked 1 liter of vodka at once.
1k would be fantastic? yeah, sure fantastic... why so much , why not 1$ - this could be trully fantastic
what the fucktard..
1k is unlikely, but if that happens then yes it's fantastic because of the strong support there, and imagine buying coins at this price! Not many would dare actually because most would think Bitcoin is dead but for me that would mean 500% profit minimum almost guaranteed.
But this price of 1k is not likely, I prefer the price of 4k-ish for next year. Again I like the chart posted by alevlaslo.

The wise-guy traders will get REKT eventually with there "all knowing" thoughts.... good to keep the main stash in long term HODL mode, the I sell all at 9K can be good some times, will end in REKT most of the times.
I don't know what REKT means but I guess it means screwed. Well for me this is a low risk anyway.
As said previously the price of 12.5k is extremely important, if we get past that price then I will put all my savings into Bitcoin to buy at 13k-ish, guaranteed profit. So it's not a big deal to sell at 9k anyway, since I believe Bitcoin goes down next year, but if I'm wrong then buy at 13k and that's still a fantastic profit, seeing 13k again means back to 20k in a blink of an eye.

The halving is in 6 months Bossian, you’re either trolling or totally retarded if you think $4,000 is likely with a block reward halving imminent. That’s a 50% drop from here. It just isn’t going to happen.
Look at the price movements leading up to & following the previous block reward halvings.
You clearly have no idea what you’re doing or you’re trolling & I can’t figure out which.
Halving either won't have an impact, or it will but certainly not before 2 or 3 years. If only it was that simple, everyone would be making money with the halving coming soon. That's extremely simplistic to think this way.
I didn't say 4k for sure, but below 5k most probably next year.

Thanks, good to see.
Now I can imagine BTC with a poor year in 2020, the price is still at 6k in September 2021, Bossian already celebrating, then an unpredictable rally starts towards 15k. Now the bet can go either way but LFC likes his chances more and more (understandably so).
Bitcoin reaches 18k (let's take Bitstamp as the price source) mid December 2020, goes down to 17k, then reaches 18.8k on December 31. Unfortunately it crosses 19k only on January 2, 2022.
That would be a repeat on Wimbledon final this year:

But But what about the trading losses by the day of payment.......... we Wall Observers think about all possible scenario's in order of payment and keeping word etc

Who knows.
Another possible scenario, Bitcoin price is below $1 at the end of 2021, in that case no one needs to honor his bet at such ridiculous price (that's a very unlikely scenario though).
By the way that goes without saying but considering price fluctuation I would expect a payment within 3 business days starting from January 1, 2022, hope LFC is fine with these terms.

Mmmkey... so 4k after the halving? R u crazy?

Half of daily
BTC supply will just disappear from market and the price will magically go to $4k?
There are only two possibilities:
1. You're a retarded bear troll vegetable with an IQ of 0
2. You're a bear shill hoping for more weak hands to sell now before
BTC goes parabolic again

As predicted, a bounce back to 9k is likely at this point. There should be a quick drop in around 2 weeks though, below 7k again but for a very short time, will probably buy more mid-December around 6.5k-ish then we are very good for the 9k target (maybe 9.5k).

This December I have the hope that the demand in the market will grow, I have always seen that the demand of DeepWeb increases in December and the price increases, I hope this month is something similar to that of 2017 and not of 2018 ...
My guess is that it will be neither. The price right now is likely to be the same on December 31.
By the way, Betfair offers the following market.
- Under 5k
5k to 10k
above 10k
Respective betting odds are as follows:
For those not familiar with betting odds, any odds below 2.0 means the result is likely, odds of 2.0 means 50% chance to win, odds of 1.50 means 66% chance to win, etc.
I personally placed a bet at odds 1.60 (two weeks ago) for the price to be between 5k and 10k. For me it was easy money since all technical indicators show a closing price around 7-8k.
I even created this thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5202405.0Looking good for a 60% profit (in fiat though).
I like betting especially when easy money is one the line

I don't understand...
I posted a chart yesterday to explain there would be a big fight between bulls and bears.
We need a well trained police to fight these thugs, but the fight was bloody yesterday and unfortunately (or luckily) bears won. To be honest, it was a tough one to guess (like the last Wimbledon final when the winner had to save two match points).
Now what I expect in the short term:
-price to go back to 6.5k in the next 10/12 days
-sudden rise towards 8k right after
There will be a 20% profit to be made within a week or so. Not too shabby.

My personal opinion of course, I could be wrong.

9.5k in February then I'll let you check what happens after that (NebraskanGooner posted it on Twitter). But of course if the 9.5k price is achieved it would be perfect time to accumulate at 6.5k!

What would really drive worldwide adoption?
Most necessary requirement IMO is a stable price, or at least a price that can go down 20% in one day. Most merchant are not willing to adopt Bitcoin because of that. I mean if Bitcoin stays the same it is today, that means 3 confirmations can require 60 minutes or more on a bad day.
Of course if a transaction can be received within 5 minutes that would solve this issue.
I myself was sometimes reluctant to withdraw my salary in Bitcoin during bearish times, so I would most for bullish signals to withdraw my salary, otherwise on a 2000 EUR payout I would be credited 1950 EUR, you basically lost 2.5% of your salary within 60 minutes just because of Bitcoin network.

So, you're worried that you lost 2.5% of your salary in 60 minutes? Do you really think this matters? Check your balance in a couple of years and tell me
then how much you've lost...
I bought my first Bitcoin at $200 from a Bitcoin ATM in 2015. The moment it arrived in my wallet, the balance was $178 (11% loss). I should have felt so sad and cheated, right? 11% loss in 10 minutes! Wow!
As of now, one Bitcoin is worth around $7200. That's 3500% (or 35x) gain in 4 years. Go find a bank or other investment that can beat that.
Enough said.
HoDL.What if you need your salary right away? Most people do. You can live in a bubble I am afraid.
Most people when withdrawing a salary will need it to pay for their rent, the wife expenses, etc. You invest long term and you believe everyone do the same, the average Joe does the same, etc... But the average Joe spends his monthly salary, ask your neighbors.

Interestingly there is a very big stake layed at 1.39 last week. Noticed this and thought the odds would go up but it was fully matched at 1.39.

The bet looks like almost a lock at this point as BTC price has been quite stable since the drop from 8.5k to 6.5k...

The proper act would have been to post this in your self moderated thread rather than delete it, it makes you look scammy. And I doubt anyone here trusts you. I did alot more digging into Betfair before posting that link. It has seized many accounts for no reason given and claims it can close accounts at its own discretion without reason. I also read many posts from professional poker players about it ripping people off. I have no intention of arguing what sites are safer than others I just add some info and let others make decisions for themselves. When people delete those links I immediately believe the worst.
BTW, Betfair makes you pay back if they posted the wrong odds, there is a thread on it I found while researching it. I have no faith in any odds they place are correct. So you posting an outrageous spread by them just makes it look like a honeypot. Especially when they are known to reverse winnings. Feel FREE To Google THAT.
It's funny you chose one rated "D" to start a thread about when there are literally pages of rated D to rated F sites it stinks of paid FUd.
https://www.sportsbookreview.com/blacklist/And its funny you point out there are 10 reports of seized monies from that scamsite xbet but I have found many times more than that on betfair thats rated A-.
I don't trust any of these sites and think they are all paid for ratings and its a DYOR issue.
And people like you that try to hide the facts are scammy it was obvious your post was intended to drive traffic to Betfair, I don't doubt you are being paid for subversive actions against competitors and to drive traffic.
We are not fools here so fuck off.
I'll not waste my time on this again, go back to your self moderated thread to find suckers to scam.

Betfair has probably some history of funds confiscating but most probably because of double accounts detected or fraud attempts. They are licensed in UK, you will even find bad reviews of bet365 which is the most trust worthy bookmaker along with Pinnacle (Pinnacle being my all time favorite).
Comparing Betfair with 1xbet is absolutely hilarious, first time I see this on the Internet and I read plenty of complaints about bookmakers.
I don't work for Betfair but the best way is to check SBR forum, you never see any complaint about them, complaints about 1xbet are all over the Internet. As I said previously TrustPilot is not always reliable. For example Neteller which is a pillar in the wallet industry, has bad review here:
https://fr.trustpilot.com/review/www.neteller.com it is rated 1.5 stars out of 5, yet I never met any people being scammed by Neteller or Skrill.
It's funny you chose one rated "D" to start a thread about when there are literally pages of rated D to rated F sites it stinks of paid FUd.
Simply because 1xbet is by far the most well known, it is one of the biggest around (sadly).
You are welcome my friend and enjoy this beautiful day!

According to the chart, the behavior clearly indicates that we are at the beginning of a good bullish rally.
4/ Also keep an eye on Bitcoin Network Momentum
At this point in prior cycles, we saw rapid increases in on-chain BTC volumes for 6-10wks b4 bull market started
Worth watching for now to see if this repeats following recent uptick

https://twitter.com/PositiveCrypto/status/1202627555016220674I agree with that, but it will be a failed rally (posted a thread about it). Bitcoin history has a lot of failed rallies, it will be one of them (the same as March-April 2018 period). Anyway buying at 7.3k is pretty good in anticipation of this rally.

That is an ABC correction (zigzag), many have talked about it lately, you won't find much support on this forum though.
I cannot see clearly a specific date on your picture, but 5k (if it happens) is expected mid-2020 (more or less during the halving). I am not sure if the halving has been priced in already, but either it is priced in, or it won't be priced in before 2022-2023 period.
Welcome to the forum.

This chart is important.
Posted by beincrypto.com in September (hence the 8.4k price). The blue and green lines are resistance and support. I kept this chart on my desktop.
If by the halving we are around 9k then it's all good, we also need to be around 8k in February-March but we saw the fractal of NebraskanGooner which indicates 7.5k area in this period.
Time will tell who's right and who's wrong. Keep an eye on this chart in the following weeks.

But don't forget to buy again at 6k-ish as there will be another bounce back and this time it should be higher than 7.7k range.

It was revolutionary since the beginning in 2009. Or even earlier (Hal Finney work in 2004, etc.).

Just like Bob (or whatever his name is) I am waiting for 6.5k. Thought I would wake up and see 6.9 or similar. Disappointed

I have my November salary to withdraw and don't want to withdraw at 7.2... On the other hand a profit of 10-15% should be fairly easy from 6.5. I have 6.5 area on December 14 and its running late at the moment.

There is a strong resistance at 6.4k, but a one closer around 7k, look like this one holds and I am not sure anymore we head to 6.5k... the move is really slow right now and 7.1k is probably a decent price to buy.
Decided to buy 0.31 BTC today with a target around 8k for mid January max. There is another rally expected because the charts and the RSI look really similar to Mach-April 2018!
Best of luck!

Hairy, so sideways for this week?
At our current price we collide with the support line on .... 25 December. So theoretically could go sideways until then but seems pretty unlikely.
Yep, 6k-6.4k area soon, but bounce back after that, January or February.
Forgot who posted this in this thread before but the patterns are extremely similar to March-April 2018.

It's important to note that the bounce back expected will be a failed rally. The bearish trend is still very clear at the moment. Nothing indicates a price above 11k anytime soon.

In the short term buying now is very low risk IMO.
For those who are happy with a 20-25%% profit minimum, this is a nice price, buying near support usually pays out (advise to traders or short term investors). Never over-complicate things. We should see 8k quite soon.

I remember I read somewhere that a Halving will eventually generate a x7 increase in the price of Bitcoin.
Problem is, I can't find a reference to where I read it...
Sounds good though, doesn't it?
HoDL!
I believe Bitcoin will reach 7x from the last ATH, i.e. 130-140K. What I don't believe is that I will have the mental power to HODL until then

The price won't get there automatically. There will be many major resistances on the way. For starters, we have to break the two major resistances at 12K and 19K. There were many predictions that at the end of 2019 the price would have been above 20K, but this obviously didn't happen. However, after the halving this is more probable to happen. Considering that in 2017 we had 2 major resistance lines after the ATH was broken - 2.9K and 4.8K, I expect simiar resistance at 29K and 48K. If we are following 2017 pattern, this should happen sometime in 2021. Whether the price will reach and surpass 100K before the halving in 2024 is hard to predict. IMO, there are some chances for that but it will be temporarily and there might be another bear year of dropping back to 30K. But what won't be accomplished after the halving in 2020 it will be done after the halving in 2024. I mean, people now are more cautious and hurry to sell with small profits. Thus it is possible to stay longer at prices around 10K-20K. I won't be surprised if takes more than 2 years to breach the last ATH and stay above it. In longterm it is better that way. The delayed bull run is much stronger than the premature run. Anyway, after 2024 the journey to 140K will be much easier. Of course, we are speaking only about probabilities, not 100% certain things to happen.
But I want to return to my thought about the power to HODL. I have several selling plans in terms of fiat profit - 600K (which makes me a millionaire in the currency of my country which is attached to half of the euro), 1mil, 1.5mil, 2mil and 2.5mil. I wish I can hold until 140K, but considering I am 47 years old and starting to have some health issues, I really don't know if I will be able to resist the first goal when it happens. Considering that the expenses in my country are very low, I would be able to live as a rich guy with such sum. I won't be able to buy a lambo, but I may buy/build a luxury villa and continue to go to job (which is not hard, although low paid). And if the price falls 30%+ after I sell, I can rebuy with up to half of this sum. If not, I won't be miserable since I achieved my personal goal. But let be positive and hope for the best. For now, I am continue to accumulate as long the price stays under 15K. After that my miserable salary of 850$ per month won't make the difference.
X7 is probably based on what is said on this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IXE1AKevRWA&t=2s Steve talked about a 800% rise after the sudden spike of the stock to flow ratio. I am not sure why though because he talked about mid-2016 and the rise was much than 800% if we have December 2017 as the ending point (he didn't explain clearly on the video).

Today a friend of mine (we graduated from the same college) told me that he wants to invest in bitcoin for a quick hit and run. Invest $5k, get out when its $7-8.
I said ok, there is nothing wrong about it. I too believe it will reach at least 9-10k once again in a year.
Then I showed him how I make my buys/sells on an exchange. Then he asked me a question:
"After you buy these bitcoins, at which bank do you keep them? ING?"
I was like, "Bruh..." I was going say that with bitcoin you are your own bank but then I realized he wasn't ready for that, yet. I told him instead:
"I think you need some education before buying this shit." Then he left my place and he told me he'll wait for 6k to enter. xd which of course may never come.
See where I am getting to?
THIS IS STILL IN THE EARLY PHASE, WE ARE STILL THE EARLY ADOPTERS.
The big big majority of Bitcoin buyers and Bitcoin holders are in the game to convert to fiat and cash out eventually, even the most enthusiastic holders in this thread (ivomm just posted a few hours ago about the price he would cash out all, and he is a fervent Bitcoin believer).
There is nothing wrong with your friend. Buying at 7k and selling at 8k is over 10% profit, if it is achieved within a month or two, that's a nice profit compared to big majority of stocks or even gold.
Furthermore, his question about banking is a very good one. Right now some banks refuse crypto transactions, or you may pay taxes depending on the country you reside in, so the temptation to hide your profits is real.
Banks I can recommend right now: Mistertango, Epayments, maybe Monese but need to double check their rules. Not Transferwise unfortunately.

The story wasn't about that. I already told you there is nothing wrong about it. (making a quick buck)
What I'm saying is, he wants to invest in btc. He wants to get a piece from the action. He wants to get in cheap like everybody (me included)
But...
He has no IDEA I mean NONE about what bitcoin is and what it is capable of. NONE. ( I do)
These are the people who get slaughtered when btc goes south. He will always wait for a cheaper price to get in and it will never come. Because he doesn't understand what he is investing in.
Ok, sorry I misunderstood your post

then I agree. I have similar friends. All of my friends I talked to about Bitcoin think for example that you need to enter your full name, date of birth etc. to open an online wallet. Actually all of them have no idea, some are waiting for Bitcoin to go back to 1k to buy for a profit.
As usual I think in Asia most people are usually a bit more advanced about Bitcoin compared to most of the West.

Wondering if the correlation between stock to flow ratio and Bitcoin price is real or just coincidental.
An article
https://coinrivet.com/fr/guides/cryptocurrencies/how-to-predict-bitcoins-future-value-using-the-stock-to-flow-model/ I don't see a price of 100k in 2021, for sure not... but in 2023 or 2024 why not? Market cap will need a massive boost and it will take years to reach 100k.
2020 still looks bearish for me but long term could be very profitable if we believe the stock to flow analysis.
Also quite interesting, I like to check the betting odds, they are usually a good indicator for anything.
For this year's December 31 close price, we have the following:
$1000 - $4999.99 @ 3.3
$5000 - $7499.99 @ 3.6
$7500 - $9999.99 @ 5.2
Above $10000 @ 7.5
Not much belief for a bull year among the betting market. Would be curious to see the sources used by the bettors.

Decided as of Monday I'll be bearish


New target: $5,600, until proven otherwise. Fits with the bear channel we're in that everyone else has already identified.
Going to put my short-term bear cap back on folks.
5.6k will very likely be achieved in 2020 so why not... but it won't happen before second half of the year. There should still be a bounce back to 9k area.
Been waiting for 9k, possibly 9.5k to cash out but I am starting to lose patience. February is my target but wouldn't mind observing 9k next week!
I still think the halvening will have an effect but a late effect, hence the bearish trend for the whole year 2020, then recovery starting in 2021 but not enough recovery to see 19k yet (hence the infamous bet...).

Nice. Already 25% increase from the 15th-20th December. The next target 18th January. Maybe a day more or less. Will consider to take some profits.
Told ya! Target 18th January! It worked like a magic! JuanGee, do you believe now in this theory? Or still sceptical?
Announced the target at 9k a month ago when Bitcoin was around 6.5k (actually about 2 months ago!
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5204344.msg53174178#msg53174178 ) buying at 6.5k was relatively safe, selling at 9k was wise. Very nice profit.
Now, it is not impossible to go above 9k again but most likely we never see 11k again this year.
Targets for the long term:
- if we break above 10.5k, reaching 13.5k will be fairly easy (that is around 28% of easy profit)
- if we break above 14k, reaching 19k will again be easy and very fast (35% of easy profit), this is a conservative target, because I am convinced seeing 14k again will mean 25k or 30k...
But I stand by my opinion that 2020 will be bearish (2019 was bullish). January has been a very exciting month.

Too many if's! Sounds complicated. All you need is a day target. When to buy or sell.
A daily target? So you do daily trading? This is for me way too complicated, I prefer trading over periods of 15 days to 2-3 months. The prices I gave above I am very confident about them, nothing genius about it, they are just major resistance at the moment.
Experienced traders can go for daily trading but I will never try, too dangerous, on the other hand if you are looking for profits around 10% to 30% it is relatively easy, just need to buy near support and sell near resistance. Of course 100%-200% profits are possible too but not that easy in comparison, more like gambling.
Again, just my opinion, to each their own.

So much arrogance in this thread, as usual.
The thing is, right now things are not clear, the action is too quick, there was a clear battle around the 6.4k support, technically it went below 6.4k but the down move didn't consolidate (yet).
TA is crystal clear my friends:
-major resistance at 10.5k
-major support at 6.4k
Now if tomorrow Bitcoin is under 6.4k this means the trend has been consolidated and bitcoin is done for the year. By that I mean 4k before the end of the year.

This is actually a little similar to what I predicted in December last year.
I was expecting a pretty stable year for most of the year, I mean price between 7.5k to 9k for a while, then between 6k to 7k... nothing crazy. Today is an anomaly.
I am actually confident Bitcoin price will bounce back to 8k area but the truth is, Bitcoin was never in a uptrend, especially since it failed to break above 10.5k.

Please show us how and when TA predicted an alleged worldwide health pandemic which caused the markets to crash?
There is no correlation to the virus. If there was a correlation with the virus, February wouldn't have been a very good month.
In January the virus was already here, in February Bitcoin price went from 9k area to 10.5k.
Now you are telling me some outside news can explain why 10.5k got rejected? Sorry but this doesn't make any sense.
A few weeks ago I was reading here and there that Bitcoin was doing well, while the stock market was doing bad, everyone seemed happy about the fact that the virus didn't affect Bitcoin. But now the opinion changed?
Truth is, the rejection at 10.5k was brutal and explained this move. I confess I never expected a move to 6.4k that fast, but we got there anyway.

Now I definitely agree with you here. All of the talk of ATH due to halvening made it almost inevitable that we'd see a drop. If I've learned one thing with btc, it's that it'll do what everyone least expects.
Yes, man it was crazy, I usually go from one Youtube video to another, it was crazy how the herd was repeating the same thing all over about the halving, very rarely a good signal.
Lol all the "I told you xx months ago that xy will happen and I am right you see" guys with their glass sphere... Cmon just shut the fuck up. Nobody can predict the crypto market with any fucking chart. I am into bitcoin since 2013 and it's always the same BS. It goes down, the "I told you" guys come up, it goes up, the other group of "I told you guys" come out of their holes.
One guy/company/exchange dumps their huge amount of coins using covid19 as a panic acceerator... I promise you nobody could forecast that 2 months ago...
It's good what happens right now. After the 20k, we never had the "bitcoin is death" phase. Wich is needed for the next ATH.
And who knows, maybe this time it is death. If we see 3 digits I cant imagine a new ATH anymore. Who should mine at three digits.
I can't speak on behalf on these "other guys" but when you are bullied left and right here for making sensible predictions, it's only human nature to come back and feel the temperature

there is no need to be so emotional anyway. I am sure Bitcoin will provide plenty of profit opportunities (probably in 2021 or 2022), but for 2020 it doesn't look good for the bulls.

To keep things very simple, we had:
-December 2017: all time high 19.5k
-January 2019: low @ circa 3k
-June 2019: lower high @ 13.7k
-December 2019: higher low @ 6.4k
-February 2020: lower high @ 10.5k (very crucial price, the bulls will buy massively if we break above)
-March 2020: lower low 4k compared to December 2019, but higher low compared to January 2019
What is worrying in this trend is the constant lower highs (19.5k - 13.7k - 10.5k), this also means we should see at least another bounce (which would be a lower high again) at some stage, around 6.4k at least.
If I could invest big money (sadly my money is stuck at Epayments right now) I would buy a lot of Bitcoin to sell at 6.4k eventually (conservative approach).
What I also think is possible is to see a lower low compared to January 2019 which would mean 1k to 2.5k area (scary but possible). But if you are mentally strong it doesn't matter, we should see 6.4k again.

Honestly it looks like 3.5k is almost a sure thing now, lower high after lower high, the question now is do we see a lower low compared to January 2019 (3k)?
I tend to believe it is entirely possible. We will definitely see 6.5k again but probably not this year.
Even 1k-2k area is something we could see again. The good news is there will be another bubble in the future. Nothing better than Bitcoin to make 500%-1000% profits.

Yes, it *has* been that bad ever since the '08 financial crisis: A complete zombie economy hanging by a string.
Eh, we're merely back to 2018 levels. It needs to fall a LOT more to hit 2008 values.
It's nice to remain optimistic but frankly all signs point to a financial and economical breakdown much harder than 2008. I remember 2008 well, and it will feel like heaven compared to 2020. I am not talking about anything related to Bitcoin but many will rush to withdraw fiat, I fear some banks will bankrupt in Europe.
Asia will probably suffer less compared to the West.
