Today is the Chinese New Year, so, if we were to believe last year stats, we should see mostly green from now on.

STEEM And SBD

At the moment of writing, STEEM was trading, on average, at $4.48 on Coinmarketcap, slightly down from yesterday.

On Bittrex, the 30 minutes chart shows another 2k satoshi descent, from 44k to 42k.

The 1 day chart confirms the triangle pattern breakdown, and the next resistance level, 40k satoshis, will tell us if we bounce or keep diving.

Overall opinion: STEEM and SBD are depreciating slightly in Bitcoin, but hold on their value in fiat, while the market seems to be in expectative. More news / movements should indicate a clearer trend after the weekend.

Sort of expected this after these 3 to 4 days of amazing market recovery, especially for Bitcoin. I think this image below represents the feeling of every crypto trader around the world right now!

Today is the Chinese New Year, so, if we were to believe last year stats, we should see mostly green from now on.

I guess they are still in the celebration mood. We should probably see a positive trend soon.

Overall opinion: STEEM and SBD are depreciating slightly in Bitcoin, but hold on their value in fiat, while the market seems to be in expectative.

When I observed Bitcoin rising yesterday, I was expecting SBD and Steem to rise too but it never happened.

Usually, when Bitcoin raises, value flows from alts into Bitcoin.

Hmmmm, it's interesting to see SBD breaking further into a higher price than Steem. I don't know how this happened, maybe unpegging has an interesting background.

I'm very happy that things keep recovering :) I've invested my last 3 months in solely cryptocurrencies, so seeing them in constanty red was a bit discouraging. I know they're still in red but damn, they're selling for a much higher price than last week!

so seeing them in constanty red was a bit discouraging.

somebody needs to learn the subtle similarity between "discouraging" and "opportunity" ;)

:( You're right. I'm very FUD-vulnerable.

Red? Oh noes I'm poor sells everything.

Green? Oh noes FOMO I'm being left out! Buys at ATH right before the dump

I need to fix my mind to have more chances as a crypto investor. Thanks for the advice.

I think the market is just taking a bit of a breather during this recovery. There's a good chance it will continue rising after Chinese New Year is over.

@dragosroua sir...
Digital money can make us rich to deal with ourselves. I genuinely trust that. Be that as it may, what I additionally accept is that it will influence us to sufficiently fit to serve the penniless also.

It is absolutely difficult for all to give. Every one is battling in their own specific manners. In any case, that is the magnificence of life is it not? One who has seen the intense time will identify towards the one enduring. Such a one when independent can promptly consider helping other people. When I put in endeavors to gain, I should put in little endeavors along to share.

One might be poor out of absence of education, another might be expected life's weight of overwhelming obligations, another might be out of sheer apathy and some might be not able meet the sudden needs of life. In any case, the truth of the matter is same. They all need assistance. From numerous points of view it can be tended to...

one of the very nice things about investing in stock market is that you learn about all different aspects of the economy its your window into a very large world.The stock market is filled with individual who know the price of every thing but the value of nothing.
