Glad to see you putting your TA cap on Grin

Yes... squiggly lines.. take them with a decently-sized grain of salt.

While the shorter time-frames remain bearish, the mid-term (Daily) remains relatively neutral and longer-term (Weekly) remains fully bullish above all it's MAs.

Given the amount of fear and uncertainty in the market based on the shorter-term price action, I wouldn't be surprised to see price wick down to re-test $50K, similar how to $40K was re-tested.

And would you be surprised to see a price wick up to $80k to take advantage of the scaredy cats?

Not really no, anything can happen in a bull market.

Not anything. Some things are more likely than other things, including by definition, UPpity is more likely during a bull market.

I'm just not going to speculate too hard on such theories without much basis for it, especially when price is under a relevant distribution level for the time being. If price were to quickly spike above $61K, for sure I'd consider that possibility with a much higher probability. Volatility is at relative lows, so there is a good chance of a big move in either direction, but that direction in the short-term favours the bears, even if in the long-term it'd likely favour the bulls. If the volatility began to favour the bulls, then sure I'd give more validity to that probability.

Fair enough. Everyone is entitled to an assessment... especially if s/he is capable of making an assessment.

People didn't like my analysis around $64K when I felt a correction (or at minimum sideways trading) was due either, and therefore remained relatively neutral, but hopefully it avoided some FOMO in order to BTFD instead of chasing the rally that was due a correction, even if minor.

Huh? I wonder why these people did not like your analysis.

Are these "people" in the room with us now?

Cheesy

Neither did others when price corrected to $45K and many misinterpreted the "golden cross" (that wasn't very golden) before price reached $40K.

Kind of hard to argue with you if you have such a great track record of being right.

I suppose subscribing to your newsletter might be coming, next?

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

Many did like my analysis that $40K would hold back then, even if you were highly sceptical, as well others understandably.

I am having a hard time following. Sure, I stated whatever at the time.. so is it currently relevant to anything beyond just trying to proclaim some kind of a track record of being right?

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

As long as my analysis isn't popular, I know it's got value.

That's a weird way of assessing the extent to which something that you are asserting has value.. sounds like you might be shooting for "shit-stirring" value, and surely I am not a large fan of valuing something merely based on its ability to stir shit.

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

What worries me more than anything is everyone agreeing that my analysis is useful or accurate, then I know that it's likely wrong. There's a good reason after all that I share it Wink

Hopefully you are sharing for your own reasons rather than being concerned about whether people agree or not.

Has anyone ever told you that patience is a virtue?

Hm? First time that I ever heard that expression.. Is that something that you thought about on your own or are you getting it from somewhere?

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

The inpatient usually get REKT. There's nothing wrong with a healthy price correction in a bull market, rest assured.

I don't know where you are getting your baloney that I am impatient... seems like you are just reading something into a situation merely to have some kind of a nonsense talking point.. like throwing shit at a wall and hoping that something might stick..

Quote from: JayJuanGee on December 02, 2021, 08:07:11 PM

Does not seem convincing to me either way in terms of whether there might be a price wick DOWNity or UPpity....

Precisely, you nailed it. It's really not that difficult to identify the indecision in the market right now, from bull traps to bear traps to sideways trading. Classic consolidation below resistance. This is because there is a conflict with short-term bearish pressure and longer-term bullish pressure. This often means down before up, but you can never be sure in these cases.

We agree that you can never be sure, but you did seems to be emphasizing the down part, and I seem to be emphasizing the UP part.. because last time I checked we were in a bull market.. even though I know peeps come to differing conclusions about whether we are in a bull market or not and then also differing conclusions regarding if whatever correction that we happen to be in is over or not.

especially that we have largely been bouncing between about $53k and $61k for slightly more than 2 weeks (while in a bullmarket)..

Again, good analysis here. However the structure of how this is happening is worth paying attention to. This isn't within a parallel channel of consolidation or otherwise a bullish pattern, it's been with lower highs and lower lows, so definitely a time to remain cautious.

If you are not trading then not sure what to be cautious about... for example, if you are DCA buying on a regular basis, I doubt that you have to change much of anything that you are doing...unless you happen to be changing something that you are doing for other reasons.

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

The lower highs confirms weakness in the price each time it bounces, as do the lower lows. Ie when price goes less and less high each time, it confirms weakness.

Yes.. it is weak until it is not. Last time I checked we had an ATH that was less than a month ago.. wasn't that on November 10 that we reached $69k... seems like it.

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

When price is going down, it's confirming selling pressure. If people would prefer to simply DCA into this dip using a time-based strategy using a blindfold, then for sure I've got no arguments with that idea.

Good DCA remains amongst the best of strategies, and surely that strategy can be supplemented with lump sum investing and buying on dips.. at least until feeling that they have bought enough BTC... so surely each person is going to have differing assessments regarding how much BTC is enough.

sure with a overall trending DOWNity in the short term, but since when did our lil fiend, aka king daddy care about that kind of technical mumbo-jumbo shit that might last for 2 weeks-ish or perhaps still only about 3 weeks when we are talking about the last ATH?

Bare in mind, king daddy doesn't invest in Bitcoin. King Daddy IS Bitcoin.

Great. We are on the same page there.

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

However, investors of Bitcoin are usually interested if there is 2-3 weeks or downside, or even 2-3 weeks of sideways trading.

Maybe they are, and maybe they are not.

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

Human beings are naturally curious beings that like to learn, explore new ideas, theorise on the possibilities of life itself. Bitcoin is a nothing more than a computerized blockchain, it doesn't care.

I am not sure if you are saying anything that has any meaning, helpfulness or relevance.

I don’t know why, there is no TA …

But somewhere in my lower half of my carrying weight I got this feeling which says

Weekendpump on its way….

Only men got this lower hanging weight on one side…

What a riddle, but surely could not have lower odds of coming true than the mumbo jumbo that dragonvslinux just propagated upon us....

Cheesy

Let's wait and see. At least at think my analysis is more accurate than idea of of 0s and 1s having feelings Grin

I would not have so much confidence in that, smartie pants. Tongue

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

That's something that I think will never truely come to light. Even with AI development etc, I think you forget that Bitcoin is immutable, so even the development of robotics that "theoretically" could artificially generate emotions, doing this with Bitcoin would be near impossible.

Again, does this have meaning? Is it helpful? Is it relevant?

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

Remember BCH? That hard fork didn't work either. I doubt a hard fork where Bitcoin starts caring would be successful either!

You would go there?

You seem to be grasping for straws dragonvslinux with whatever point that you are wanting to make, if any.

Quote from: dragonvslinux on December 02, 2021, 09:08:39 PM

But I do like the theory of Bitcoin caring and therefore having feelings, it's always interesting to explore different concepts, even if it's only to confirm their irrelevance.

Now, you are devolving into a patronizing disposition.. which is hardly becoming of a gentleman soothsayer wannabe.
