Not the usual Saturday evening activity for me, to check out the crypto prices, but this time something stood up. As you can see, STEEM gained more 2k satoshis in less than an hour, and is now trading significantly over the opening value:
What's even more interesting than that is, for once, the surge in STEEM price is not driven by an SBD pump. Even if SBD followed through with STEEM, for a while, it's clear that it wasn't the change driver this time.
My personal opinion is that a big buyer just entered STEEM. I don't expect the price level to hold, but even if it's just one big buyer entering STEEM, I find this rather encouraging.

I am not analyst but from what I understnd is that when the volume supports the rise that can be a major signal for a genuine buy in and not a PnD

I saw this earlier today and I had to do a double take. It was up from the day before to something in the $1.30 range and then I glance up and it's gone past $2.60! I thought, "Dang Hitbtc!" Then I looked at the index and saw it was all over the board on the exchanges, but that it was highest on high volume at Bithumb.
That's a pretty big buyer. Most be some kind of fund, don't you think?
All I know is the graph I'm looking at flatlines until about 7 PM UTC, and then it shoots straight up and back halfway down like a pulse on a heart monitor. The rest of it is looking rather arrhythmic. :)

My bet is that traders consider that 20k satoshis to be a key level for Steem, but we still need some other green days to confirm a reversal.

It's been long time that we didn't see green on the charts. Now, it's time to rise. I hope it will go much higher than this.
