Remember when Bitcoin was in a bear market a couple weeks ago? Me too

in GEMS3 years ago

CNN has egg all over their face after their calls on Bitcoin

Remember when CNN called for Bitcoin to be in a bear market after it dropped 20%?

In their defense, technically anytime anything falls by 20% from it's highs it is said to be in a bear market.

However, in reality it sort of looks pretty silly when you see stuff like this:

And then a few weeks later it's almost double the price, and breaking through $50k.

Yea, it seems like a long time ago now, but the price dropped as low as $29k before surging to $50k.

I was a dip buyer and hopefully you were too.

The next local peak probably is still $10k or more from this level.

What can we learn from that sort of media reporting?

Basically when you see articles start coming out about how we are in a bear market, it's probably time to buy.

The last dip was about 31%, so maybe wait a few days after we get those $20 drop headlines, and then load up.

These guys have to be getting tired of being wrong!

Sort:  

The headlines are going to come out again with bitcoin down 22% now.

Technically that's in a bear market.

I suspect we leave the bear market within a few weeks.

History says we will bottom within 3 weeks of the start of this drop.

I never believe mainstream media

I think a lot of people feel that way at this point.

I would say, that plunged of 20% was the turning point.

It was a buy the dip opportunity.

Oh, okay. I see.

I think bitcoin probably goes north of $60k before our next 30% drop.

Yea yeah. It is showing those signs already.
