But this time it wont drop much. Times have changed now and Bitcoin has been becoming a major currency of the world day by day, month by month. So dont expect much decrease in price this year.
Bitcoin as a whole may have grown in recent years, but the level of manipulation is still the same. Just look at how easy the price went up to $1100 where the smarter people here were expecting a massive dump to happen, while all the noobs here though the price would go up even further. You know why the smarter people here have been expecting a massive dump? Because it's no coincidence anymore that everytime the price goes up quite a bit, something pops up causing the price to tank again. It's manipulation from the highest levels. It's so obvious, that if you play it right as a trader, that you can gain massive profits in a very short time. That's the difference here.
Yeah that is where the trading skills come into play. Only the experience traders know when to buy and when to sell at the best possible price.
Also as many people china being indirectly affecting the bitcoin price and gaining the highest possible profit in terms of trading at the moment.
