throughout this drop both support and resistance have been extreme. volume is very high. the volatility has brought in a lot of day traders looking to capitalize on the drop. I played the game myself, sold high bought lower! The risk to reward for doing this is going lower and lower with very drop, at one point the music will stop and there will be far more people than chairs.
I don't know ... that was a lovely bounce just now - if I had been on it ! But I guess if Billy Big Bat had not appeared on the scene we could equally well have dropped 10 points instead. Yeah .. it's fucking risky at the moment ...
Problem with day trading it is that you can't actually go short, so in a downward trending market you are relying solely on catching the bounces and being nimble. Yeah you can sell out and look to buy again, but that's not really going short. And as someone posted recently, going to bed with a position is very risky right now. That really skews the odds against day trading IMO.
I am ahead, but not by much, and it's been a rollercoaster ... one that I am beginning to tire of ... takes up so much time
Exactly had not it been superman coming with his 4 big orders of 2500 btc each , the drop would have continued. Right now we are at a waiting phase, a price above 100 is no more a bargain for buyers (in those uncertain times), and sellers are hoping for a better price, considering the latest uptrend.
Only a big dump, one that usually happens, will restart this thriller..
