If you are a bull long term you realise this will happen.
BTC supply is huge. 17million coins.
The circulating supply is tiny. 3 million coins? thats generous something like under 1 million coins are traded circulating.

Now megawhales and early whales know they cant unload shit. if we take it all into account, BTC is worth far less. However, every now and then we see parabolic growth, which does a few things.
It increases the circulating supply of traded coins. It increases drastically the number of people participating in the market. distribution. This must be done over time.

Imagine some children with 100 marbles playing. another kid comes and wants to play, the children put 90 marbles in a bag, and say to the third child, you can have a marble and play only if you pay 10$. the child sees there are not many on the table and pays for a rather high fraction of the marbles on the table (10%).
After a few more children have done the same, the circulating supply is too small to play anymore, and price too high to enter. no kid wants to give up their marble. The child with the bag of 90, decides it's time to take 20 more out onto the table.

This reduces the entry cost to play with them slightly, but not as much as if they had all been there from the start. the process now repeats.
This is what is happening with BTC and its circulating/ actively traded supply vs what is in cold wallets. soon we will see a moon beyond your dreams, but not before we go lower. Only then will a new round of people be attracted to the market.

Don't bet against the trend.
We are about to see a huge break out, and the chances are it is down. It could reverse, but that is actually bulll bias right now.

Zoom out enough, and the trend is clear. Descending triangle withing a smaller symmetrical triangle gives a clear indication of bulls or bears are in control.

I remember being just like you, you’re about to experience what we like to call “regression to the mean”, I used to trade options before BTC, I had conducted 22 trades over a three year period, and every single one yielded a profit after tax ranging from 2% (my worst one, to 30% my best one) I felt like a god. I had gone from a little over 30k to half a million after tax in just three years.

Then I made one single binary bad call that cost just over half my net worth. I had played out my lucky streak and regressed to the mean. That’s what’s about to happen to you, you’ve got this excellent track record so it’s made you cocky, it’s atarted to make you think this market is predictable and anyone can make money if they just use common sense. But the day will come when the market behaves totally irrationally and brings you back to the mean.

You are so fucking stupid. Did you read a single post i made rather than get all emotionally triggered cause i suggest 6k doesn't hold?
I do not need you poorfag BTC. I will make way more than that if 6k breaks or if it holds.

The thing about TA and trading is, you make money no matter what. And in situations like this ? you find a hedge. I am comfy hedge right now. confirmation will be extremely obvious to either side fast so hedge set up was simple. You probably dont even have a clue what i am talking about. In other words, whether you are right on your "feelings" or not I am gonna be in a winning trade. I long and short all the time.

Thanks for the advice. I have seen that happen to many traders before. been really cautious of it since January. I experienced this last year when i first started trading BTC. I went from something like 0.4 BTC to 13, then got cocky and didnt stick to my risk management and over leveraged and traded, lost it back down to 4 BTC.

these days i have strict protocols. I never risk more than 10% of my account balance in a single trade, I always take profit at certain levels, and I ONLY make about 2 trades a month on the bigger trends when it comes to leverage.

This desu, it's one thing to want to make money and be free, but bear cucks are the worst:

They didn't make enough money during the enormous bull run to have to stop trading so they're all trading with lunch money, usually around 1 BTC, at most 5, which also means that even if they short and BTC goes to 1 USD, their BEST outcome is to double their money unless they re-open shorts and risk getting squeezed.

So then consider this, a bearfaggot is openly rooting for society's one chance to escape the road to serfdom and our keynesian dystopia of hyperinflation JUST to make like 5-10k. This is morally more repugnant than being in the seal skinning business.

If you think crypto is dead then out of respect you should quit this manipulated market and just buy leveraged SPY ETF or some other boomer stock. But to sit here posting bobos and HOPING BTC dies is gross and you guys deserve to get squeezed.

traders in either direction give liquidity, and cause distribution events and accumulation, which are vital parts of a growing market and any price action. they HAVE TO HAPPEN.
Get it in your thick heads. Whales cant just hold the coins forever and nobody else gets them. they purchased them for pennies. by distributing them after huge gain and selling or shorting" they are creating a buyer at a MUCH higher average entry, who is way less likely to sell till profits are seen.

he's not emotionally invested. he just considers himself a part of a community building something bigger than himself. he is representative of how the crypto community used to be, especially before the last bull cycle. the crypto community used to be overwhelmingly focused on ideals and the future, and we're still here, but now "traders" and scalpers have ridden up and decided that they're part of the community too, although all they want to do is make a dollar.

a lot of newfags don't like the ideals and the future, they just like the money. and that's why they trade with lunch money, because they don't really believe in crypto, they just believe in the price, and in the back of their minds they think it's worthless and all going to zero.

if you actually believe in crypto, you wouldn't feel the need to set stops and alarms and risk dollars for pennies. just buy little bits and hold if you actually believe in crypto, because i can assure you we are nowhere near the true valuation of BTC.

not trying to put words in your month, but it insinuates you beleive that BTC should be immune to normal economic factors. like people buying and selling, market confidence, boom or bust cycles, liquidity, accumulation distribution, market confidence ETC.

it doesn't insinuate anything. it insinuates that you know nothing about economic theory and yet are happy to say you do. you have stolen ideas from others without a single original thought. you are a currently-on-a-lucky-streak trader who doesn't really believe in crypto and think his short sales perform a vital service to the market. somehow you think that you're helping the community by short selling.

btc is clearly not immune to any market or economic factors. i am telling you that your citation of "economic theory" as a reason why btc cannot be valued at 1trillion+ market cap is absolute hooey.

you clearly know nothing about money supply or monetary economics if you believe that is the case.

if you believe in crypto, you shouldn't go short because you drive the price down and erode confidence in the market. if you are a scalper, by all means go ahead, but don't pretend like you are part of the crypto community. you're just a scalper.

that's what i mean. you can't have it both ways. you can't sell short and do your part to erode confidence in btc and then act like you're performing a service that you should be appreciated for.

buy it, hold it, use it, accept it as payment

Also, not necessarily liquidations, just people covering their positions.

Any time a whale wants to buy 500BTC at once, the shorts are likely providing that liquidity for them. Same with LONGS on a someone looking to sell a lot.

Margin trading is very healthy for any market, creates massive liquidity and makes price discovery much faster. This bear amrket could have lasted so much longer without margin( SHORT AND LONG SELLERS).

Everyone who bought at 2-6k they didn’t buy or sell anything again. If it drops past 6k those are the people who have fiat built up which is why we are seeing the support at 6k and not 3k. The longer bitcoin goes flatline the better chances it breaks up instead of down that’s just psychology.

See your point, but the whole idea behind a descending triangle is base don the opposite of that. (meme triangles and such are pure psychology, same with all TA. all information you find on a graph is human psychology

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/descendingtriangle.aspanalyses))

the primary feature of a descending triangle, is that te bulls lost control at the peak, and have been unable to regain it since, making a serious of lower highs, while flexing at a consistent bottom struggling to resist bears. Each lower high shows further weakness till the bottom is broke and all confidence is gone.

the point: the lower highs are what give bears strength, not the flat bottom giving bulls strength. you must not interpret it wrongly.

There is a good percentage chance it breaks down based on that alone. it sin't 100%.

You're confusing what people normally mean when they say 'emotionally invested', what they mean is people who stubbornly hold a stock they picked because they've become arbitrarily attached to it.

I am emotionally invested in BTC the way an antiques dealer is emotionally invested in the prosperity of antiques. I've been in BTC since 2012, I actually remember being ON bitcointalk back when satoshi was still posting. I am not out here tearing my hair out, I've paid my rent for the next three years (I refuse to buy property) and I check the price of BTC maybe once every week. I only browse /biz/ because every other online community has become cancerous and while this place is no different at least its anonymous so it is *slightly* less circle-jerky and occasionally I get to encounter a real oldfag or give someone advice.

Which is why I am gonna give you some right now, there's no such thing as a free lunch, there's no such thing as 'easy money', and when you think the market is definitely gonna do X because 'its obvious' you will learn sooner or later that the bigger picture is 50:50. If there was even a 60% chance BTC would crash below 6k, then the market would ALREADY price that in. The price action we're seeing is basically that whether BTC breaks up or down is precisely 50/50.

There have been peer review studies into 'descending wedges' and 'falling triangles' and every other bullish and bearish formation and not one (1) has found any real correlation between that and price movement. This is all pseudoscience and confirmation bias. No one knows where the price is going, no one.

I understand entierly your point. However that is the fundamental difference. People who hodl, they are all or nothing. you are either holding or selling.

You guys dont trade, you dont do any risk management, hedging, anything. everything for you is binary, when it is incredibly ignorant to think that is the case.
Atm, there is a 50/50 chance. equal bear to bull signals. I am simply not opting to go against the trend, which is down.
I am hedged with a fat short since 6811, which I wont full cover till we break 6870 with a 4hr candle close, not a wick.
equally, I longed Eth a little while ago at 215.5, which I will keep adding to till we hit 6300 on BTC.

Whatever break out happens, I benefit from now. I have a comfy hedge.
Its stupid to see everything in terms of 50/50 and binanry. you have so many options to play and protect your earnings or accumulate more.
