Bitcoin Misery Index Is Showing A Rare Buy Signal
Updated
Sentiment Analysis is helpfull to detect longterm market lows. The bitcoin misery index right now is showing the lowest readings since 2011.
"When the bitcoin misery index is at 'misery' (below 27), bitcoin sees the best 12-month performance," Fundstrat Global Advisors co-founder Thomas Lee said in a Friday report. "A signal is generated about every year." The bitcoin misery index is at 18.8, its lowest since Sept. 6, 2011, the report said. "Think of this index as a way to measure how happy or sad you are owning bitcoin," Lee told CNBC on "Fast Money" Friday evening.
As of Friday the index was around 18.8 on a scale of 100, "telling us that bitcoin holders are miserable," right now, said Lee, who pointed out that it was the lowest reading since Aug. 2011. ( cnbc.com/2018/03/09/wall-street-analyst-creates-new-index-that-says-when-to-buy-bitcoin.html )

Note
BTCUSD @ 9.350: Bitcoin is trying to break the major downtrend lineNote
BTC@ 9.420 - Reversal Pattern likely to be completed today.Trade active
BTC @ 9.200 - BTC re tested the lows. Second attempt to break above the major downtrendline is running now. If ever this might be succesfull the break below would be a false break matching high pessimism. If bitcoin is able to raise above this downtrendline again it should be a perfect set up for any long position. Reasing bearishness of market participants should remind long traders to be carefull. Any break below 8,3 is likely to trigger more panic selling. If this attempt to break above the downtrendline is going to fail than traders and hodlers needs to react quickly and sell.BTC d
