CME CF Bitcoin Reference Rate & CME CF Bitcoin Real Time Index CME ETH_RR_USD Ethereum Reference Rate & CME ETH_RTI_USD Ethereum Real Time IndexTrading Summary Notes for Thursday, 8/9/2018
- After several days of huge price declines, BITCOIN and ETHEREUM hold steady
- Is the selling over? Was that the selling climax? Only time will tell.......no hurry to rush in
- BITCOIN heading to $4,000? ETH to $200-$250?
- Selling climax would be a tremendous buying opportunity. Panic at the top ($20,000) and a panic at the bottom (?)
- GOLD gives up $2.00 in very quiet trade
- GOLD holding to the $1.205 -$1,210 area
- Long term bullish on BITCOIN and GOLD. Neutral on ETH. Hard to be bullish and long in weak markets
- Typical "NO NEWS" summer day.....boring
CURRENT TRADING POSITION:
LONG GOLD
