RE: Bitcoin (BTC) Evening Update: A Directional Resolution is Needed
No reason to get all excited ;)
You can't force a great portion of people to think for themselves, so either way you tell it, you will end up influencing them.
In this case, seeing things in a positive manner will actually help everybody profit, except those who have a bearish stance for a well-defined but rarely openly-displayed reason...
Because the ones you fear might be losing money will not do so as long as the rates go up. You may have watched that after haejin videos about Bitshares and the likes - I appreciate your way of Icarus-oriented reasoning but in a theater like the current one, no non-Cassandric harm is actually being done.
I'm only sharing my view on the markets, that's all. I'm not trying to herd anybody here or guide them to tag along. The sooner these newcomers learn to not follow others blindly, they will do better here and in life. And if they are using Steem, I want them to do well in both.
So for those who don't know what they are doing, no need to panic just hold. If you believe in the projects you have bought that should come easy. Crypto hasn't entered mainstream yet and you want to hold some when that day comes. Swings now will look like miniscule looking back then.
Corrections are healthy and I welcome them.
Since this is a place for trade talk: Where do you see support for btc in the weekly timeframe? I could see the next support being at 8k. So bounce there back to 10k or even 12k and people will be cheering but it will be just lower highs and the bear market will continue. In the end 5k looks like inevitable for me but I'm a pessimist. What do you think personally? It will be interesting to see how this plays out, that's why I'm commenting here. To come back and look is there any point for TA.
Telling the truth, I've been expecting levels of 11.5, 9.5 and 8 myself a few times since Christmas, and nothing about that is impossible... I'm very disappointed at the psychological situation as we had such a nice "I believe in Bitcoin" creed end of the year, that would have carried us to 50k in summer... but it was not to be. A bear run down to 6 k is possible for a half year I think, though probably around 10k more likely. Thing is, I'm not really that concerned because I believe day trading is the better way to approach this scenario and you can always earn money doing that in a choppy market. You just have to put your mind to it. In a market where you have to reckon with constant dips, make buying and foreseeing dips your forte, buy and sell every time anything drops or rises by more than $300 or so. Have to find out if its worth your time of course, it tends to get a bit intense ;)
Don't worry, 100k will probably break at the end of next bull run :) Can't go from 700usd to 50k without a proper correction. Let's hope for 5k bitcoins, the cheaper the better before they truly go to insane levels of price.
Good luck trading! I rather look for longer trends than day trade, too intense.
