Trading Recommendation:
HOLD, STEEM and SBD wait to see for trend direction, significant risk of STEEM falling if SBD returns to $1
Investment Recommendation:
HOLD, expecting to be much higher after the release of communities (coming soon), SMTs, and partner applications
Analyst Commentary:
The STEEM price is down 5.77% verse the USD over the past 24 hours on lower volume ($7,067,680) as Bitcoin retraces downwards to $7.95k again on lower volume as the rally is indecisive. STEEM has also fallen slightly verse Bitcoin while Korean trading maintains 64% of the trading volume. I recommend maintaining your position but not adding to it until we see where the market wants to go. Set your stop loss at $2.25 because that will indicate a reversal downwards New account creation data is not available today. The % vested indicator is down at 71.32% as the ratio between STEEM/SBD rises over 1.1 which is slowing powering up of rewards. Daily active account data is also not available today. SBD is at $2.38 on Bittrex which is still very elevated over the peg, receive you rewards in 50% SBD and then use the SBDs to buy STEEM on the exchange. SBD conversions are a waste of money again!
For traders, I believe STEEM is fairly valued around the $3 level even after SBD returns to the $1 peg. On the investor side, I believe we will be significantly higher after communities are released and the account creation problem is solved (the timeline for this is currently unknown). I would power up your rewards and buy STEEM below the $3 level.
