Apart from that, I love this quote:
Bitcoin fell as much as 5.9 percent, its biggest loss in almost a month, to as low as $5,247.
I'm not sure whether to I'm more fascinated by the BTC price or by the fact that 6% drops have become newsworthy.
According to volatility index that is not that much in comparison to last monthes. Today looks worse if no correction has been guessed beforehands.
Drawing a supportline starting from 9/15 that line will cross the former high of 9/2 (usually a month start strong because of fresh wages) around the 20th, five days before that Gold fork. Right day to get in. Date, or around $4800 whatever gets reached earlier.
I think people sell because of the hard fork which is coming in November. Its either they are selling their bitcoin and take their profit or buying alternative coins that have a potential to pump after the fork. Also Bitcoin Gold make a big effect on it. Either way, still hodling my BTC for the a long term.
