Short squeeze in the making or the beginning of hugely depressing spring/summer?
(wondering for a friend ofc)
Edited to add: Had to sell a tiny bit to pay insurances, so it could resume uppity now any moment.
The needing to sell a bit for some "extra" expenses seems like it should have been in the upper $40s, not in the upper $30s..
#justsaying
Thanks for pointing that out, it already began to dawn upon me but now I know for sure..
Then again, when the invoices start to change colors so to speak you can't wait any longer for the squiggly lines to please ones desires and wishes.

Though seriously, in the past it worked more often than not to wait as long as possible to sell for basic needs (a mandatory insurance is not exactly an "extra" expense in my book).
And I'd like to quote Jimbo here in my defense  (IIRC, apologies if I'm attributing this wrongly to him) : "Buy if you can and sell if you have to" and it was clearly a "have to" moment.

Remembering for what I buyed the sats I sold yesterday I'd like to quote the lil doggie too: "This is fine".

Let's say for example if we have an average cost of $1k per BTC or maybe even way less, as Jimbo proclaims to have something like 2 digits on his average cost, but anyhow, for the ease of illustration and maybe even to help guys to relate a bit, then maybe if you are currently around 40x in profits and in the whole scheme of things, it does not make very much difference if you ended up selling some of those coins in 39x profits or if you could have had gotten 49x in profits.
