But aside from that, yep, I am generally bullish. I have staggered buy-ins between $580 - $630. If these orders drop, then depending on how things shape up, I may just consider holding onto those through thick n thin, perhaps only dropping them at clear parabolic blow-offs as and when they come along. It seems that I am good at gauging trends, but tend to cut my own throat when it comes to trading. i.e. a big pile of coin bought at $480 BTC that I sold at $550 (2 minutes before 6K of buying pushed Bitcoin to $570), followed by a mixed bag of good n shit trades (but mostly shit). Had I just held, then I would have a great big cheesey grin on my face just now and have endured none of the headaches and 5 times the profits....of course, all very well saying that with hindsight.

In short, I have no plans or strategies but unlike the whole of Dec, Jan, and Feb, I just no longer feel any great fear towards Bitcoin. At this point in time, I feel from here out Bitcoin is generally a good bet, give or take the odd $100 negative/positive swing or two. I don't buy any of the persisting scare stories of macro down trends still being in place and lower lows being just around the corner for Bitcoin. For me, the bottom has happened (for now) and the reversal is in the process of defining itself.

Exactly. Smiley

But I can respect that position. To each his own.
