Updated

Charlie Shrem’s messages in the Whalepoolbtc Telegram chat states that there was “big news” coming from the Consensus conference, and that members should “Buy BTC.”

fiatleak.com Is showing, who is buying: Mostly very small traders, mostly buying 0,0XZY bitcoins. Todays total market cap of BTC is 44 billion US-Dollar. 86% of all trades are a "buy". It's pure math wich make it unlikely that buy orders in a 25 US-Dollar size can keep a 44 billion market cap at todays highs.

Looks like possible head and shoulders pattern:

Note

Trade closed: target reached

Note

BTC short closed at 2.460 or net gain of 200 Points. Momentum to the upside is still there. BTC needs to much attention to trade it.

Note

Short 1 position BTC @ 2.490 again.

For me looks like we hat a retest of the former highs and maybe the downmove might start after this retest might be confirmed as "failed". BTC trading is much more challeging than stockmarket trading. There is no quite time, no off time.
I will continue trading with a very small position only and maybe ad or minus more intraday but will not report or comment on it.

Cryptos - Bitcoin sheds $500 as Cryptocurrency Exodus Intensifies

Quote:

"BTCChina, one of China's largest bitcoin trading platforms, announced that it would cease offering trading services on September 30, citing statements issued earlier this month by the People's Bank of China and other regulatory bodies in the country.
BTCChina will stop registration of new users from Thursday, it said on its official microblog.
"We will stop all trades on the digital trading platform starting Sept. 30," it said. Its co-founder, Bobby Lee, told Reuters the move would not affect trading on the BTCC international exchange, however.
The sharp sell-off in Bitcoin follows growing fears of blanket ban on bitcoin exchanges across China after a statement from The National Internet Finance Association of China (NIFA) Wednesday claimed that “financial and social risks [of bitcoin exchanges] cannot be ignored.”
The National Internet Finance Association of China, a self-regulatory agency, established by the People’s Bank of China, said that Bitcoin “is becoming a tool for money laundering” and warned that virtual currency trading platforms in China are not legally established.
Chinese regulators, however, are yet to confirmed any plan to shut down local exchanges but the statement from NIFA supports recent media reports warning that the decision had already been made."
