It's annoying to look at substantial buys that trigger a ton of sells as soon as barely touching $112k right now.
A bit more momentum and shorts would be eaten up in a short while.
Eh it's just the weak hands shaking out at 111k.

HODL.


Question is..why there are those "weak hands" at a seemingly irrelevant value of 111K? A rhetorical question.
My "proposed" local top of, hopefully 216K, might occur if and when MSTR joins SP500, which could be in September.
Interestingly, there was a local top (the first in the double hump in 2021) when Coinbase IPOed.
Some people started talking about $444-475K (or 0.444-475M  Grin ), but for now this seem a bit excessively optimistic.

Well we wrestlewent under 109 k from jan 20 until a ayday or two ago.

111k is clear better than 109k

and they got in at 74k on the correction a month or so ago they are now up exactly 50%

1.5 x 74 =111  so my guess is they are simply taking profits from the dip buy.

if they grabbed 10 coins at 74k they paid 740k if they cash 8 of them they get 888k  and not have 2 free BTC plus a few worthless dollars after taxes.

Say 30k cash after tax and 2 coins.


They can now wait for a dip to get more.

Or hodl the 2 "free" coins and wait for price to go way up say 250 a coin.

It is hard to turn down sure winning moves if they arise.


Not a winning move, imho, as it is very short-sighted.
EDIT the scenario Nick is proposing in a clip below (a supply squeeze and a spike) is actually quite possible:

but it is not certain.

what I described is a certain win

with all taxes paid
30k cash
2 btc

for letting the 740k purchase made a month ago ride for 30-40 days.

so in addition to the profits above

you also have you complete investment starter money of 740k sitting where ever.

Many players make this type of move 1 or 2 times a earyear if they can.

It is safer and is a certain win

They can do whatever they want with the 30 cash and the 740k cash principal.
