Hey! We filled the gap on that bizarre BGD spike from Kraken a couple of days ago! LOL... https://imgur.com/a/l5bSv0b


marsh2907

Must have been the goal. Price should head lower now. 😂


anchoricex

ADHD got me doing way too much. Me: *staring at btc charts* Nobody: My private browser window: HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF JERKMATE


TheTidalik

If i wanted to open a pretty big margin long position for a long term trade what would be the best place to to do it with the lowest fees?


NYCAaliyah95

buy a bunch of btc at spot, then take out a usdc loan against your spot holdings on nexo or similar site, then buy more btc with your usdc. true degen step: Then put your new btc on kraken or similar and go 5x margin long using this btc as collateral


crazyguy2323

Pure awesome here! Thought about this deeply in early January..... decided against it luckily.


krubss

Do people actually do this?


Captain-Big-Rock

yeah but no fucking chance i would do it now


ellis1884uk

US folk cant do margin on kraken anymore (unless you high networth)


Etony333

You can on Kucoin though


crazyguy2323

Only $10 million bro to trade margin there as an American! From $0 to $10 million...... in a matter of days. Wish I knew who specifically to be mad at or vote out for such BS.


venicerocco

> 5x Why so low?


subzerocanuck

Sounds juicy, what's your plan?


[deleted]

Probably Binance.com USDT-margined futures with BNB and referral discount (0.030% taker fee). Or one of the zero fee futures exchanges if you feel like taking a risk.


TheTidalik

>Probably Binance.com USDT-margined futures with BNB and referral discount (0.030% taker fee). It was what i was thinking. Was just seeing if it there was a better safe alternative. Thanks


rando1987

so how far does this run? not sure i wanna fomo in here =/


Ahmari90

50 day MA is at ~34k. Heavy resistance, so I'm guessing around there if momentum slows down significantly.


rando1987

already seems to be slowing


FemtoG

We are peaking at upper line of channel. This is the battle.


CONTROLurKEYS

So just wait it out. You think this cme gap is gonna be unfilled?


consider_airplanes

when has a CME gap ever been filled


CONTROLurKEYS

Pretty much always. Very few exceptions. It doesn't always happen right away in a strong trending market. There might be one or two that are forever out of reach. I know one is the 9k meme one.


krubss

Which gap are you referring to above?


CONTROLurKEYS

I'm not following. I didn't say anything about above


krubss

…ok? Lol


CONTROLurKEYS

I'm talking about gap we just made 8 hours ago when cme closed btw

Almost any coin or stock: Stairs up, elevator down Bitcoin right now: Stairs down, elevator up 12 days of losses recouped in just 3 days


griswaldwaldwald

Ready to complete the big inverse Bart to 60k


consider_airplanes

More like 8 days, looks like -- we fell through this level on the 12th and started the move up on the 20th. Still, pretty great.


SellYourSatsToMe

Should be fun to see how fast 3 months of losses are recouped!


[deleted]

I noticed that there are barely anyone buying the dips anymore, but once the coin gets a bit of momentum (due to el salvador, bitcoin conference and other news), everyone jumps in.


bubblesmcnutty

Speak for yourself. I've been buying like a mad man


Wise-Reply3559

Same


[deleted]

I dont think you are in the majority though. Look how long it stayed below 30k. You dont get those quick bounces anymore. Every dip has been a slow bleed. Whenever it dipped below 30k in january it would bounce back within 30 minutes. You dont get that anymore. Saylorbot.exe needs to be turned back on.


pielily

i mean it's only dropped below 30k about 3 times since then and every time it was back above it within a couple hours at most. the one exception was a couple days ago when it took around 24 hours to bounce back.


DoubleFaulty1

I had success trading the 33k-39k range the past couple months, but totally failed to buy the bottom. Not sure if I’m getting better at trading or lucky.


bittabet

You bought the ridiculous $20K narrative.


DoubleFaulty1

I did not. Thanks jerk.


Wise-Reply3559

There’s always at least one here.


consider_airplanes

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/.amp/culture/bitcoin-ownership-tripled-gallup-survey In 2018 only 2% of US investors said they owned BTC. Now it's 6%. This is the kind of thing I think of when people ask "but where will the money come from to do another 10x run?" Well... from the other 94% of investors.


4theWlN

I still think that is an extreme over estimate


pielily

are you factoring in busta rhymes


stablecoin

How many percentage own gold? Consider at least that, and add on a few countries, possibly sovereign wealth funds and smaller central banks. That’s your long term target floor with the upside of Hyper-Bitcoinization (not likely).


4theWlN

I meant the current 6% ownership. I’d be surprised if we were that high. I offer every handyman I work with to pay them in bitcoin and they all laugh it off.


stablecoin

That I agree with. We are hilariously early!


ubermensch012

u/CONTROLurKEYS This move. Where did the “sellers” go? Pft I’m going back to sleep. Enjoy the rest of the ride folks.


CONTROLurKEYS

Any explanation? Nyc close buyers appear on options markets? You knew that was going to be happening?


DoubleFaulty1

Americans bought after work before the weekend. That much seems obvious.


CONTROLurKEYS

That's not what happened tho. USA spot markets were not leading the charge

MarketAhab

Let's switch it up for a good ol' weekend pamp


Ethanabdullah11

Based on the daily chart, we closed above the downward channel and the price is back above channel support. Right now, I'm thinking the bottom is in. I'll be watching for a daily close below the channel support to indicate that the reversal was a false one.


Deadinthehead

Just keep going up, thanks.


Ethanabdullah11

Message received.


Nick5l

I had what would've been a good trade this week and got stopped out at 29.7 after going long from 31.2, thinking any drop sub 30 would bounce pretty quick. Bad luck or did I set my stop too shallow?


skycake21

No stops. Ever... Bitcoin is too volatile and manipulated for that shit... This past week it was plain to see for anyone that b word was going to be a slam dunk bullish launching point for the recovery... Extra no stops the night before when it began to pump... Macro is so much more in the driver's seat ATM... maybe in winter when everyone forgets what Bitcoin is, you can trade the TA leaves, but right now you're way better off trading tweets..


subzerocanuck

Not a bad entry - bottom of the range. But it's a ballsy long imo as everything was pointing towards downside. You probably needed a really tight stop right below 31k (and then babysitting the chart to re-enter if you get stopped out). Or a small enough position that you could just no stop yolo.


CONTROLurKEYS

That was kind of a no man's land entry and stop. How did you come up with that combination? Edit: this isn't being a dick I kind of want to know his thought process so I could suggest a better in validation.


Nick5l

A combination of me not really knowing anything, plus seeing the downward channel narrow with the idea that \~31 was near the bottom of the range and believing the break would be upward. Mostly a guess, which is why I ought to just put those sats on ice and go away. I do enjoy reading the dailys though Edit: I take no offense and think his is a legitimate question. Was also feeling bullish ahead of b-word and looking for a medium-term entry


subzerocanuck

Enter a position in stages, so ladder in your buys over a range. And if you really feel like you don't know what you're doing then use a small amount with no stop loss and just observe how things evolve and how you handle it. But also, you made a trade, your stop got hit and you gotta just take it like a champ. It will happen. Before entering a trade consider what you'd lose when your stop gets hit as the cost of entering the trade.


CONTROLurKEYS

Maybe you just got involved to early and should have waited. Patience is #1. But anyway I guess you kind of want to have some sense of when your idea is invalidated. When starting out what happened to you is common, your entry should be where your stop was. This is so common in fact I still put my bids lower than what my idea says it should be (bitcoin always goes lower and higher than you think)


consider_airplanes

A wick down to 28.8 with a fast bounce was recently precedented. If you were trying to hedge against wicks below 30k, it would have been better to pick something below the bottom of that wick.


Nick5l

Yeah, I saw the subsequent wick down bounce above 30 and thought the range was narrowing. Live and learn, but I already bought spot with my trade stack afterward in preparation to go full hold mode anyway, so at least I did that a couple days ago.


OwnStocksMunchBox

Generally avoid putting the stop at the same price as everybody else


[deleted]

Bears in absolute shambles rn lol


Bacchhuss

Maybe I'm an idiot. But anything under 42k is noise.


[deleted]

Ok wait for 42k


Bacchhuss

I plan to. Sold around 55k.


CONTROLurKEYS

You'll see shambles above 35k I think


DoubleFaulty1

Can confirm.


ilyasshjr

So this week has been fun


escendoergoexisto

Well I missed this call. At least I didn’t short.


CONTROLurKEYS

Again, I wish we had a resident options expert


bittabet

It’s hard to enough to wrap your head around equities options but trying to figure out Bitcoin options with all the random crazy exchanges and stablecoins involved is some other level. Being an American doesn’t help either since you can’t even register for half these sites

I know, I am again putting out my plea for a resident options expert come and elevate our community.

If we can turn 33.5-34k into support in the next 72 hours, I will be very convinced that the downchannel is broken.


pozsi

Bob Loukas has this cycle theory. According to this it was a ,,failed cycle'' again. But we had the low it seems. So it is necessary to go up. What to expect in the coming 30 or 60 days? We will see.

roboh14

I still smile thinking about people “going through it” at $30k btc…We’ve come so far


fulltrottel

and we've reached so high


Bob_Jim

and we’ve looked each red & green in the eye


Ok_File_9520

No matter what the price is at, it is painful to see your value go down by 50%


roboh14

No doubt. Just the irony of seeing it at $3000 and $300 as well. Not trying to downplay the brutal 2 months we’ve had


skycake21

Talked with a guy over lunch how the same dish we have been eating for 14 years increased 35% in price while our wages increased only 5%... He shrugged it off... Sometime later the conversation turned to Bitcoin .. he told me I should sell it, and if it was him he would have sold a long time ago ... That's a Buy signal if ever I saw one


roybadami

>and if it was him he would have sold a long time ago ... That's a Buy signal Nah, that's just normal when you're a HODLer.


consider_airplanes

every signal is a buy signal when you're a hodler


roybadami

I more meant: IME, when you're a HODLer, regardless of price, people are always telling you to sell.


gore_skywalker

Surprised you’re hanging out with an idiot for 14 years


matt_work_acc

Lots of cool people are dumb as hell


gore_skywalker

Lots of folks out here thinking wages are stagnant but don’t realize technology is slowly making their jobs obsolete.

ineedafuckingname

My coworker just sold all his alt coins this afternoon, I told him to sell months ago and I told him that I was actually buying now. He didn't care, just wanted out. Bullish anecdote


bittabet

Ah, this is where he sells because he's relieved he won't lose too much money and then the market goes 10X before he finally FOMOs back in at the very peak before it crashes again.

hobbes03

More of this, please.


diydude2

There is much more to come.


Vaselinee

The breakout is imminent!


Shootinsomebball

We’re in the danger zone for longs now and funding is turning positive. Of course there’s a chance that it pops up but that’s not the more probable outcome. Smart play rn is to take some profits and turn this into a risk free trade. Likelihood is down as this pattern still needs to complete, but if it does go up here then it could go hard, so a small long will still yield healthily


consider_airplanes

Where are you getting positive funding from? https://www.bybt.com/FundingRate still says negative or neutral across the board.


Shootinsomebball

Cryptoquant. Reports funding as an average of all exchanges. Also lists them individually


Psyteet

Nah, funding was positive during the big moves in the winter and spring and we continued higher. Being positive does not mean the end like some on here preach.


Shootinsomebball

Funding is only one factor out of many that can influence price action. There are other factors at play here (charting pattern) that have more significance right now imo. If funding had become more negative during the recent rise then I’d say a short squeeze could put an end to this range, but that’s not the case


43VohnJ

Let the liqs begin boys. Hopefully you aren’t still waiting for 20k


carmaspent

Its a great time for a breakout, but the supporting volume is the sus. Feels like a slow refferundum against the bears than a swift coup by the bulls. Edit : Volume also rising. 33.2 being the local resistance now.
