You know those moments you have opened short position because there is no other way market can go and after several weeks of stand-off you are nerved out and tired of choppy market so you finally close it at break-even just to see the price crash down another day with your planned profit hit in a few minutes after the break?
Well, that happens sometimes. And also closing the trade with huge loss (if not the margin call) happens in these cases when the trend reverses. That’s why it’s good to use stop-losses (physical or mental).
China New Year’s holiday is here and many traders expect fervently whether the PBOC will make its devaluation move during these days. Either way the price action looks bearish and I can’t see any reason for opening any substantial longs. However I wouldn’t be surprised first to see some buying shots during the week and Friday/Saturday/Sunday some massive sell-out
as has often been the case.

The BTC/USD price downtrend was confirmed last week with the Thursday daily candle sell signal after several days of consolidation. And although the Friday’s candle formed a doji suggesting some buying pull-back, this scenario looks off the table currently as the price keeps pushing down.
A nice downtrend channel has formed there with some minor support/resistance in the middle (now somewhere around $350). If broken we can see a brief spike to $310 very soon.

The recent Bitcoin price swings has been only about China. Most of the bitcoin trading volume is executed in Chinese yuan, a currency facing prospects of fast and furious devaluation. The BTC/USD pair has been stucked in low price change range over the past weeks and this non-volatility has been driving a lots of traders crazy. What’s next in store?
Arthur Hayes, the CEO of bitcoin futures exchange Bitmex, predicts “the PBOC will schlong the CNY by devaluing it 5%-10%.” He believes it’s going to happen during the coming Chinese New Year holiday when there’s no immediate capital outflow risk.
“Looking through monetary history, central banks and governments like to unveil massive monetary policy changes during the weekend or bank holidays. The PBOC is quite lucky; the Chinese New Year holiday presents an excellent opportunity to massively devalue the Yuan and cut interest rates without the threat of capital flight. The Chinese banking system and capital markets will be closed from February 7-13. During Chinese new year, all things financial come to a halt. The PBOC has free reign to duck hunt dormant capital with impunity.”
So what does this all mean for the BTC/USD speculators? Have a look at the chart (not my production) below and figure it out. Ok, I can help you if it wouldn’t be obvious. The first yuan devaluation stage were accompanied with the sudden BTC/USD price decline followed with longer-term (2 months) price consolidation in $50 range. Then the monster Bitcoin buying rally came.
The second stage has already started though not on any massive scale. If Hayes is right the largest damage in this phase should come during the 2nd week of February. That could push BTC/USD down to the $330-350 level or even lower with a brief spike. Then a consolidation period and then…you know it already. To the moon! (Or not)
