  • Bitcoin momentum very strong. Expect more upside. $5,000? YUP!
  • Buy bitcoin on dips, or nibble at offers for aggressive traders. Nervous traders use trailing stops ($200-$250 under buy price?)
  • Buy gold on dips against sell stop at $1,250
  • May start getting a bit more aggressive in gold. $1300 test coming? Looks like it
  • LONG TERM BULLISH ON BITCOIN & GOLD
