If a market is bias upward, and the price breaks support without crashing significantly, then that means it's likely to rebound strongly.

Many bitcoin forecasters anticipated a large rally before the 25th, which was pushed down, and what's pushed down can hold a lot of unspent energy, like a coiled spring.

I saw it as an innocuous event, but I belatedly realized that others wouldn't, and that it was a time to sell and buy back lower. And if others thought the same as I, and if they thought others would act on this same knowledge, then all the more reason to sell, and that would only contribute to the downward pressure.

Only 18% return in one month, woe is me!  But I know what you mean, it's easy to get hooked on 50-100% per month ROI.  Bitcoin risks are a lot lower now than they were last year, with oodles of good news and publicity so far this year, so it does make sense that returns are now lower than they used to be.

I figure if I can make 5-10% per month, it's worth my time and risk to keep playing in this market, independent of philosophical reasons to be involved in bitcoin economy.  The buy and hold strategy may no longer be the best strategy, though. A 5-10% uptick or downtick could happen at basically anytime, and countering these big market moves is still more profitable than most other investments.

Walzilla: "I got yo' back, bulls"

Bears: (running around like crazy japanese people in original Godzilla movie) "WALZIRRA! WALZIRRA! AAAHHHHH!"

I don't know, but this is bitcoin. If it looks bullish, watch for your back.

watch out for mini bulls.

I don't get it. If it goes way higher than you expected, you should be bitcoinless.

Yes, a lot of weird people are buying now. You didn't sell? I did, and I'm from Slovenia. I didn't know that even more screwed up countries exist. Where are you from (some part of Balkan I guess or America)?
