What do you think about the price of Bitcoin now? Take profit or continue to greed? I understand how you feel about Bitcoin's price crash in the past. And many people are thinking about taking their profit when Bitcoin go back its old top around 20k USD. If you look at the chart of Bitcoin recent days, you can see Bitcoin continuously  sold down at the price 18.2k USD, it shows that many people had already taken their profit but it was immediately bought around the price 17.5k USD and be supported very well at here

Let's think about what happened next when they had already taken profit? the break of its old top and keep going up? In my opinion, I see the price movement of Bitcoin this time compared to 2017, there is a difference significant when we see the monthly chart of Bitcoin.

1. The first period is from Jan-2017 to Jan-2018

-->There are almost no adjustments, and the price went straight from 1200$ to 20.000$

2. The second period is from Jun-2019 to Nov-2020

--> The price moves in its correct trajectory (maybe Elliott's wave) with some significant corrections.

Beside that, I want to show an interesting information about the difference between BTC flowing into and out of all exchanges.

We can see the red candles represents for a drop in Bitcoin deposits on exchanges and that could be a sign that there is little taking profit here on exchanges (there may be trading on OTC exchanges)

Finally, this is just another view of the market from me. And with long-term investors, you also shouldn't have too much headache about profit taking or not  Roll Eyes

I think the market is basically controlled by the marketers, so, if they are taking profits at that level then there is a possibility of the price crashing to a lesser value within  a short time frame and also considering the fact that the US elections are still to be clear on the outcome of the winner, I see an impact on the price of Bitcoin as a result of this in a short while.

You could be very right here. It will all boil down to whenever the mast majority see the price as very enticing and want to cash in on that price. I do however think that this wont happen until we at least get past ATH as people will be using that as a checkpoint in their heads imo. As for the election, I think this has already made most of the impact on the market already. I do think that this potential vaccine for the virus could impact the market aswell if that gets the green light to go ahead, what you think?
