What's the problem then, just short it now

I trade on Luno so no shorting though I probably wouldn't do it if I could. Think of it like risk management. By trading only in one direction I eliminate risk of making ZAR losses both ways. I'm happy just to sell and pick up more BTC if/when it goes down. If it doesn't drop now after a couple days I'll re-evaluate my position and maybe get back in with half when it pumps.

I'm sure it's gonna below 8k within the next day for a final tank before the Moon run

weekends have been counter trend 8/10 times...been waking up to green dildos most saturdays:sick:

IF there will be any further drop most likely to be monday.

anyways not comfortable holding over the weekend coz dont have much time to check on it so out completely.

lol... think someone just got wrecked on Luno. Probably trying to manipulate the price upwards with an order of over 20btc. Another whale just snatched the whole order up.

Not sure where you're getting this man, I looked at the daily's for the last 4 weekends and they both usually followed trends to a large extent with decent size candles

10 mar, 3 mar, 24 feb , 17 feb, 10 feb , 3 feb, 27,20,13,3 Jan --> remember i said 8/10 times -- not all the time.

daily candles either made higher highes or closed higher than the previous days before drops continued sunday evening through monday...just find Saturday to be risky day to trade.

yeah but looking at the closing of each day i I think it agrees with what I say. Anyway it doesn't matter, I think it fell just as I said it would and shorting a few bitcoin from mid 8000's to now worked out quite well for me I think. I'm still learning though and hopefully with enough knowledge days like these become common

People, 3 different sources I read, are saying we might dip to $3k per BTC. What do you guys think? Me? I say bring on $3k so I can buy :).

When I started in crypto, I saw BTC go from about R50k to about R20k. And I kicked myself for not buying at R20k/R25k ish...

Up until a day or so ago, many people were predicting a drop down to $4k eventually, before any significant rise. And by significant, I mean $14k and beyond.

I have seen rumors that $2.8k is on the cards as the worst case. Whether this materializes or not remains to be seen. The next 2 weeks will be critical...that’s the predicted timeframe to reach the “bottom”

We shall have to wait and see how this pans out! Nothing is certain.

5000BTC on Bitfinex on the drop down from $7600 to $7400.

Was just watching the last drop below $7300. Price went from $7330 to $7280 instantaneously, with 750BTC support above $7300.

Massive volume on that dip to $7240 and a quick bounce away. Maybe the bottom hit for now.
