Bitcoin Price Watch; Monday Morning Trading

Here's a look at what we are focusing on in the bitcoin price this morning. So that’s another weekend out of the way, and considering what we saw in the bitcoin price heading into the close of the week last week, things we’re relatively flat. In the second of our twice daily bitcoin price watch pieces on Friday, we noted that there looked to be plenty of volume pushing the markets throughout the day, and that this might be indicative of some weekend long volatility.

Bitcoin Price Watch; Riding The Wave

Here's a look at what we are focusing on in the bitcoin price this morning. In last night’s bitcoin price watch analysis, we took a look at what had happened throughout the day, and noted that the way price was moving made it pretty tough to maintain a steady strategy during the latter half of the week. Not that we haven’t been able to draw profits from the market – things have been pretty good to us – but that being able to keep things tight from a risk management perspective is a little harder than normal.
