Is anyone else starting to become a bit worried? mod note in first post

Autochange

Bear markets
Fud
Regulation
Wall Street manipulation
The supposed tether ticking time bomb

What are your thoughts? Have you cashed out? Have you been buying the dips?

MOD NOTE:
Its good to see healthy debate and discussion taking place and I am sure every supporter of cryptocurrency and blockchain can agree that the contrarian viewpoint is worthwhile reading, if only to act as an anchor and help prevent investors from getting carried away in an echo chamber of "everything is wonderful, just keep going"

However, there have been a few reported posts recently which I did not action as I wanted to see the thread level out itself rather than start forcing viewpoints and I have been in two minds about that decision.

I'm not going to single any posters out but I'm going to ask that all posters read the forum charter and I want to point out that it was established years ago in the Television forum, that dropping in on a forum to tell the followers of that forums topic (in that case a particular tv show) that it was all crap and only idiots watched it etc etc was the exact definition of being a dick and attempting to troll. I know this because I was the mod of the forum at the time. Now look at the forum charter again.

There is pretty much one rule on this forum : if you cannot discuss in a civil manner, and I mean discuss, not soapbox or attack, then you have absolutely no business posting here and I have no qualms about removing your ability to do so.

This forum is for people that have in interest in cryptocurrencies, blockchain and their application to financial investments. that can be positive or negative but if you really feel the need to start pulling out memes / hiding insults in imaginary hashtags / attacking personalities or just generally being a dick there are other forums you can post in where I will let the local mods determine if it is within the scope of allowable behaviour. Here, it is not.

Wasn’t this a site you dismissed only 20 minutes ago? It’s my understanding that this is a widely respected tech website, with articles written in a slight tongue in cheek style. It also would appear to allow differing opinions - always a good sign.....

Probably more FUD, but the ECB today launched this: https://www.ecb.europa.eu/paym/target/tips/html/index.en.html

It enables payment service providers to offer fund transfers to their customers in real time and around the clock, every day of the year. This means that thanks to TIPS, individuals and firms can transfer money between each other within seconds, irrespective of the opening hours of their local bank. It costs .2 of a cent per transaction and takes less than 10 seconds for the end to end process. It doesn’t use blockchain.

Yeah but can the value of the money go up and down in seconds like a lady of the nights knickers?

Wheres the fun in that Johnny?

inverse head and shoulders pattern has just completed with an uptrend. I think it's a good sign.

So another h&s pattern has formed on bitcoin, this time bigger than before. Buy signal usually but don't take my word on it.

Possible 800 euro made this week if you knew what you were doing not a bad week for crypto.

Pick the bottom, sell at the top. So knowing what you are doing means having a crystal ball :pac:

3100 was an outlier, so that's the bottom tested, would that be tested again is a good question.

I'm following ETH primarily and over the last few months have seen plateaus followed by drops and new lower plateaus. No idea whether this pattern will persist or not but I'm going to wait and see rather than taking a punt. I suspect ETH will get its POS issues sorted, rise sharply when this happens and will still be around in five years time. I am planning on buying again, but amn't in any big hurry.

I made great money from ETH this year then lost the whole lot on BCH..:(

Does anyone on here have any actual real investing experience, not trying to put anyone down just get an answer, there's a third upward trend h&s forming, if it completes could it mean three white soldiers, according to my own research it does. Would that mean a bull return to 190 - 180 on eth.

[Deleted User]

Yeah, definitely...buy..

Nobody here or anywhere can answer that, Its all speculative mate and lots of different things influence crypto.

It's up too you if you think buying now is a good idea,Its just as valid as someone saying I'll wait until tomorrow to buy or sell

Well normal analysis can, but that's without a whale dumping a sh*t load of coin.

I'd like to see these analysis's that have made correct predictions of bull runs.

Can you link to then please?

You have no idea what will happen or even why anything has happened to date. Like trying to find patterns in clouds.

PS- I do have some real investing experience. I've put fairly large sums in a standard index fund, some property and a pension fund. I've been lucky and done fairly well out of it so far.

Markets are defined by algorithms now so you can forget about all of that stuff.

Ok so my theory is if the current h&s trend on eth closes out above 109(euro) that it is entering a bull run, if I buy one eth at my estimated entry point of 90 - 94 euro I'll have enough profit for a pizza at least by new years.

That theory has been said about most of the top 20 cryptos this year by many many analysts, there has been points of where if they don't fall past XXXX price it's means a bull run because the bears cant sell off anymore etc,all of which have been proven wrong as 2018 has been a tough year, hopefully next year sees a slow and steady pick up

If markets were defined solely by algorithms, they could be predicted by algorithms. I'm not convinced this is the case, as while there is a lot of bot based trading I suspect these bots are frequently being tweaked and overridden by people.

...only if you know what the algorithms are, and each trading bot will have its own.

Yeah it's great to play Nick leeson though and worse case I loose 5 or 10 euro which is cheaper than the bookies.

eth hitting 93 euros... only issue with that is the price didn't hit over 109, I'm still predicting pizza in new years.
