In The Last Week We Have Seen a Flurry of Bitcoin News on Mainstream Media.
Whenever I see the media talking about Bitcoin or anything hot in investing I start to think we are nearing the peak. Personally I think we are near a peak for this cycle. The night before I shorted Bitcoin at $2100 thinking that was the peak. Here is a link to the article Bitcoin Trading Story, Beware the Bull.
I was about 8 hours too early. If I would have shorted at $2200 instead I would be able to have a nice down payment for a house, just sayin. We could continue to rise here with the Segwit news but I believe that will occur when we have more consensus. I am treading cautiously here at these levels.
This is Why I Think We are at The Top.
