FUD? >_>

edit: there's a bunch of other shit going on as well that could tank BTC so I think I'll just stay safe in USD for now.

Atramental · « **Reply #242 on:** November 21, 2017, 09:19:41 PM »

This could play out soon.

Atramental · « **Reply #243 on:** November 22, 2017, 11:45:17 AM »

Head & Shoulders pattern forming on the hourly chart.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #244 on:** November 22, 2017, 11:56:51 AM »

I'm just sitting here with CAD in my account waiting for my chance to strike... assuming it actually does dip again.

Atramental · « **Reply #245 on:** November 22, 2017, 12:03:33 PM »

Even if it does rise after the H&S pattern forms completely I'm not putting any money in because it is due to tumble down some before it hits 9,000 USD.

Or at least that's what all the charts I've been looking at seem to convey.

edit:
Gigantic sell orders always makes my hair stand up on end. *whew*

That 17 BTC one might as well be a house.

Bears are out for blood today.

Hmm, thinking about getting out if it goes above 8250 again. Only got 1/4 of a bitcoin right now so it wouldn't be a big deal to me if it went down. I have a $500 deposit coming in this week or next, so I could just buy the drop with that. The stress of selling and then rebuying isn't really worth it to me.

Also, have any of you looked into Power Ledger? They have a working project in Australia (with government funding) and they're starting to get involved with countries in Asia. Since I invested last week it's gone up 200%.
Here's a reddit link with info: https://www.reddit.com/r/PowerLedger/comments/7dzo9d/why_power_ledger_will_be_a_top_15_coin_2018/
If it goes back down to .60-.70 cents I'd recommend buying a bit.

I saw a bunch of people shilling it on /biz/ a week ago.

But then again, a lot of shit gets shilled on /biz/ and it's hard to cut through the noise of what's a good buy and what isn't.

I should probably find some decent crypto twitter accounts to follow instead.

Skullfuckers Anonymous · « **Reply #248 on:** November 22, 2017, 01:01:23 PM »

Yeah I learned about it on 4chan too. I don't really mind throwing 100-200 bucks as long as the idea seems decent and has a team working on it. Though I also invested in Horizon State during that time and that dropped by 1/3 after I got in. It's definitely a gamble doing this, I'm glad I didn't fall for the Confido scam.

Atramental · « **Reply #249 on:** November 22, 2017, 04:17:54 PM »

Yeah, confido is one of many examples why I try (keyword: try) not to gamble my money on brand new coins/tokens.

Looks like my H&S pattern is turning into a wedge. Dammit.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #250 on:** November 22, 2017, 04:26:52 PM »

Fuck, I was hoping it'd tank today so I could buy in. Leaving for vacation tomorrow so I'm probably going to be missing a lot of what happens in the next couple weeks.

Atramental · « **Reply #251 on:** November 22, 2017, 06:43:57 PM »

What the fuck!

I'm watching from the side lines...

Fucking hell.

Baiano19 · « **Reply #254 on:** November 22, 2017, 07:55:57 PM »

I should have bought Monero since the first day I bought bitcoin ( last week lol). Its the only currency I see on darkweb

Dash is kinda crazy though. Might see a correction soon

Fuck, I wish I had more money to waste , I mean, invest

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #255 on:** November 22, 2017, 09:19:33 PM »

I have a feeling BCH is going to do some stuff tonight. Bought some at 1647 CAD and it's now at 1720.

Atramental · « **Reply #256 on:** November 22, 2017, 10:47:21 PM »

I'm probably going to buy into BTC again.

When people take their profits out of BCH and alts BTC will shoot up.

edit: Christ, BCH doesn't want to fucking die.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #257 on:** November 22, 2017, 11:02:09 PM »

Cashed back out 500 up. That's it for me for a little while. Not going to be able to reliably watch things for the next week or so and I don't feel comfortable parking money in crypto without babysitting it obsessively.

Atramental · « **Reply #258 on:** November 22, 2017, 11:20:29 PM »

I'm... going to wait.

this shit is making my eyes twitch.

BobFromPikeCreek · « **Reply #259 on:** November 22, 2017, 11:31:23 PM »

Side note: I just invested in a bunch of Canadian weed stocks. We should have a general money thread.

agrajag · « **Reply #260 on:** November 23, 2017, 11:22:54 AM »

Just cashed out on my Ether at its all time high

Atramental · « **Reply #261 on:** November 26, 2017, 01:50:45 PM »

Can't believe I'm missing out on this insane bitcoin bull run. It's almost near 10,000 with no correction...

edit: It's dropping. Finally.

Bamelin · « **Reply #262 on:** November 26, 2017, 06:21:11 PM »

That btc run was absolutely crazy.

I exited my BTC position a week ago going all in with LTC instead. Half regretting it given the epic btc run, but I think it's just a matter of time until ltc moons. ltc is seriously undervalued imho.

Why isn't it going down! Fuck.

I could've made an additional $2000 if I just kept my money in.

We're due for a big correction. I feel it in my bones.

agrajag · « **Reply #267 on:** November 28, 2017, 11:43:38 AM »

Well, duh. A correction will come eventually. Trying to pinpoint it is a fool's gambit.

Will it though ? And correcting to what ? Bitcoin is purely a speculative asset and it doesn't really correlate to anything (apart from slight uses as currency and paying ransoms), it could go up as long as buyers are convinced it will continue to go up.

agrajag · « **Reply #269 on:** November 28, 2017, 02:22:28 PM »

Just $55 more to cross 10k.

Syph · « **Reply #270 on:** November 28, 2017, 04:04:07 PM »

any correction will be forgotten months after
even if it dips back to 8k after passing 10k, it'll still be at 10.5k months later
it's not "too big to fail" anymore
it's "too big to bail" baby

Breh, this is the ultimate exercise in human greed and morbid curiosity. I could have pulled out a million times already with a decent profit, but I keep looking at the value climbing mesmerized, like I already won a small lottery but I wanna see how much more I could get, and risking it all to find out.

Like, this is me right now

Momo · « **Reply #278 on:** November 29, 2017, 06:23:30 AM »

Is IOTA worth it?

Atramental · « **Reply #279 on:** November 29, 2017, 08:13:23 AM »

I was going to hold some IOTA before I got disctracted with bitcoin.

Now I really wish I did since I remember it being below a dollar.

I say buy $100 to $500 dollars worth (money that you don't mind throwing away) if it dips and just don't look at your investment until early next year.

Also, look up dollar cost averaging if you don't want to wait for a dip.

agrajag · « **Reply #280 on:** November 29, 2017, 09:38:55 AM »

Waiting for bears to finish their run before I buy back in but *phew* I was almost worried that it was going to keep up climbing up into infinity.

shosta · « **Reply #283 on:** November 29, 2017, 04:19:04 PM »

Bitcoin has no inherent value and is a speculative bubble. It's a share in a company that will never pay out dividends and entirely depends on some other sucker coming along wanting to buy it from you for more. People getting in the hype right now are getting lured in by all this hedge fund cash pumping money into a high risk asset.

Atramental · « **Reply #284 on:** November 29, 2017, 04:45:23 PM »

Atramental · « **Reply #285 on:** November 29, 2017, 05:07:16 PM »

Bulls are somehow making a comeback...

edit: If btc doesn't go down to 9000-8500 in the next couple of days I'm not buying back in.

I'll just hold eth, iota, and possibly one other alt coin.

Atramental · « **Reply #286 on:** November 29, 2017, 07:29:32 PM »

Some food for thought about the next couple of weeks/months:

Atramental · « **Reply #287 on:** November 29, 2017, 09:04:32 PM »

BTC slowly climbing up... seems like a bull trap.

I think there's a real possibility that BTC could go down to $6000 in the coming weeks.

$8200 if I'm being conservative.

Just don't sell. It'll shoot back up again once it hits a strong support.

TBH I think 8k is the baseline, I don't see it dropping below that in the near future. Oh well, if it drops, I'll buy some.

If it goes well below that purple line in the center of my fibonacci bollinger bands and fails to break up past it again it's gonna keep on tumbling down.
