{quote} http://unenumerated.blogspot.ca/2016...cares.html?m=1 Mandatory reading for any commodity traders written by nick.szabo ideological father of modern smart contracts. High IQ Lawyer turned programmer. "The dawn of the pure fiat, floating currency regime caused far deeper forces to come into play." Anyways my fuzzy math from 2013 points to 7k to 10k midterm.. your numbers look right for a potential top here aswell. Im mostly in syscoin so i think im positioned well for a bitcoin range/top.
i can imagine a lot of worldwide money laundering is within bitcoin. with today's political climate. Mueller finding some Russian money in bitcoin. That made its way inside U.S. election/political parties would not surprise me. It may force U.S lawmakers to do something. that something may be some type of bitcoin regulation concerning u.s. banks redeeming or transferring bitcoin proceeds. not that they could regulate bitcoin itself. if that would happen, other countries may follow with their banks.

lots of politicians around the world are stealing from their country. Mueller may have the power to expose Putin and many world leaders money laundering to their people. yeah bitcoin is secret. that may be its weakness too. If some of the countries make it harder to use. many want to exchange the money to a physical legitimate asset

Better form of money will always chase worsed forms of money in the open market. If you read that link thats the takeaway. Because of gold std people switched to commodities because of the 3 factors mostly government coercion of local monetary instruments. But commodities have their own issues and now theres something even better.

{quote} if it ended up rolling a London close -1752, it probably would make 1728.. the mid number on the 12 h today and Friday L roll is 1779.5. its below that 1784 number. a close below 1784 is probably a sign. maybe a long/short setup using its close side. also 1767 may attract it.. it too is below 1784. this week bulls dont want Friday to close -1752. even a London day roll -1752 would look bearish
bears are trying to leave a mark

looks like a roll at 1777.4... well below 1784. and 12h.. it may retrace some from here. if this low today remains. later maybe asia 1807 area may get tagged. 1784 is one of those week numbers, not the best one to use. like 1826 and 1841 were. the one needed for a strong close would be -1752 on the week, and -1735 on the day. a day close below 1752 would indicate 1735 is on the menu.
atm low is 1769, dont be surprised for it to continue to 1767 or more. 1728 is/was normal like posted last week..

lots a decent support to slow or even stop 1728 around 1762/55 area. 1728 is just one of those places it returns to most often, but not always.
that L close below 1784 doesn't make me want to be Long. So i am still holding my shorts.. i would say its getting bearish, but the NY day, week, Month and Quarter look strong bullish in most eyes.

in and out myself my house .. i should be gone, but had some calls to make. if 1793 is the center. 1739 may get hit. kinda doubtful it can get past 1755/62 and 1752 in a single try.. maybe tomorrow we can be below and close below 1735. still have 1728 in mind, but 1545 is very much valid.
school? like a student?

here , last week roll was below month levels. more important it was above those levels and had a reject close below. the higher green is today L roll. it is below 1793 Friday's week roll. so atm we have a week close maybe rejected from month levels. then today, the day close was under the week close. it also being under Friday's close. that is showing some stress in the Bulls stride atm.. plus -1784.. its making 1545 look better..

this week it shouldn't have the 1818 attraction like last week. its already done the normal retrace.. getting a day below 1752 35 to me leaves some running room.. 1/2 of 1600 is 800.... month pp 1665 ish
