Bitcoin Update Full Marks for Bitcoin More gymnastics overnight as Bitcoin tore across our screens. It's as if it's putting on a display for us all, going through a gymnast's routine across the mat and parallels, showing us a selectionn of moves and continuation patterns, all different over the last 24 hour display. Look and learn from this extraordinary creature. Is she mot magnificent? Ideally it will finish with one last blast to the upper parallel where we look to close out for a while if touched. Day traders can short from there wit stops 50 points above. You may win a heap of points. And you may get yourself a new one ripped - before you even have a chance to pull down your pants. But with a stop it may still be worth the risk, if we see that upper parallel touched today. Doesn't have to do this but it would be neat if it did. Stops can be raised to just under the top dynamic support shown on the chart now, just under 12250
Bitcoin Update (Last Night) A very quiet day for Bitcoin...a little break into new highs, a continuation pattern lasting 10 hours of stultifying price action and then a break higher, which is being chased higher in China. Still no sellers around though. So it pushes higher. Continuation patterns tend to last 5 or 6 hours, this last one was longer than usual but the break has been steady. Hope you spotted the pattern here...not a regular well defined flag or parallel but look at it: left shoulder, head, right shoulder: an inverted/reverse head and shoulders (so another continuation pattern to add to the list, to study and remember for ever) with the small dynamic resistance line at the top of the chart forming the neckline/break-point. The minimum upside target following breakout is 12,092, only 50 points away as this written. Another 260 points or so, if touched. The break today was slow coming - like fishing can be too - we have to learn patience and recognise that when Bitcoin goes into a continuation pattern it takes 5 to 6 hours usually to straighten out again and sometimes 10. This is the nature of the beast. We cannot let ourselves get tired by waiting though, becasue just when you think it's never going to break higher, it does. It's Bitcoin. Stay with it. Day traders can draw a support line right under the lows of this run from 11166 on a 1 minute chart to determine a near term exit.
* Sorry to desert post today - busy in meetings that took all day and most of night...new Crypto funds starting up ahead of futures trading starting in Bitcoin on December 18 - Bitcoin gets more respectable with every passing day. Soon everyone will have a Bitcoin desk or risk being left behind, and getting labelled old-fashioned. Except for Jamie Dimon of course. Mr Dimon may be a stopped clock, but he could yet be proved right. One day. Until then, every other day, he's wrong though.

Bitcoin Update Well stops have held up nicely if still long here. It's now kissing the parallel having shot through earlier and then recoiled to first support (just above, in fact). So this gives swing longs who missed the chance to close out earlier another gift. It could be making another flag here, p to now, prior to blasting straight hrough the upper parallel. That would be nuts to even contemplate with a 'normal' 'stock/instrument, soon to be 'future'.But this is Bitcoin, we probably need no reminding by now. So either close out here but be ready to get long again once we see the upper parallel broken and then used as support on the next decline...if we see it, it could be quite clean and it could also be very messy, spending quite some time deciding and flipping either side. The nature of the beast. Downside girst support for day traders is 12540 and then the last breakout line at 12318...can easily dip back to the lower pair of parallels if it cannot attract buyers here pretty soon now...if we see this develop we look to buy again there.

What a display, still...trying to hold up on the big parallel line ...very bullish whilst it does ...watch and wait...if it breaks above the high can follow with stops under 12680, and obviously if it now rallies frorm here it's just turned from neutral back to positive once the high is beaten, so go long again if not still stubbornly holding...and the way price is behaving we KNOW that still' even here, no one is selling...we follow the chart now and try not to get caught out in narrow moves around the line, if at all possible. A good break and green candle out of here should be followed Forming parallels, as per chart....still quite strong/not weak anyway whilst within them
@sumastardon Txs, for update, I have made some good trades txs to you. Situation is almost nerve-wracking ..:) In summary would you say to stay in cash, or have a buy order over a new ATH. Txs.

@sumastardon,
I see speed up and full of feelling that day X is near(today/tomorrow). I'm sure, main price drop should be done before Dec 10 and 18.
New pockets mostly do plan shorting, market shouldn't give them easy money. New shorters should be rekt.

Some of us expecting BTC crash. I'm not. If bitcoin crashed, it will kill all crypto industry. Who interested in that?
I'm expecting this scenario: 2-4 weeks of correction, than rekt new shorters by moving price to new ATHs.
After dances and taking off money from fresh pockets it could be stabilized near 10k for few months/years for cool down and accumulation.
Bitcoin now entering into NEW LEVEL. Next target - Nasdaq. And volatility should be lowered for that. Maybe 1% daily movement will be considered huge there.
It's also possible that alts and forks will be rouling next year. While bitcoin is resting.
