"BTC has never-before seen volatility, biggest bubble of all time."
You are very wrong. First, volatility used to be much worse: https://mobile.twitter.com/lsukernik/status/8649208737189519... Secondly, the importance of a bubble is measured relatively not absolutely: BTC may be near the all-time high but it has seen only a ~2x increase in the last 30 days, while the Nov 2013, Feb 2013, and Jun 2012 bubbles all saw 10x...

Sorry meant nothing has risen from a fraction of a penny to five grand in human history, iow referring to the percentage moves that we may never see again in our lifetimes. I stand corrected. Meant relative to any other investment in history.

Please don't. It's irrelevant.
The short 5k-5.5k idea could be a bust anyway; maybe we do rally to 6k from here. I am concerned with managing risk, less so with any particular idea itself. That's why I thought it was funny that another posted how I was "very wrong" about how I described volatility. Who cares who is right or wrong? It doesn't matter. Just be safe, that's all that matters. Protect capital.
For there to be a move above 5500 you'll need a new wave of buying pressure. This puppy is now owned by your rent seeking masters. It's up to the big players to govern how price is to move and that's largely a function of how much buying interest really remains.
It doesn't take much to realize BTC itself has dubious value; better tech will emerge in our generation. This was merely a first step. That has nothing to do with the short term price or where it finally tops if it hasn't already, though.
Goldman came out on public radio to state the price will be a buy below 2k. Wise to heed their advice here. Trick is to know which of their info they release is reliable, which requires a system in and of itself.
