Title: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: digexservice on June 12, 2011, 01:05:31 PM Use forex trading hours. Banks are closed on weekends hence currency exchange grinds to a hault.
Another option is force dark pool trading on lower amounts on weekends Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: kokjo on June 12, 2011, 01:07:39 PM Use forex trading hours.

2) There have been huge rallies on Sat, I believe last week was one, if my memory is correct. MtGox proudly claims they are open 24/7. Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: Anonymous on June 12, 2011, 01:13:06 PM A market would just start that is open 27/7
Dont regulate it - the market will come up with a solution.

Why are people (even in real markets) always concerned with trying to prevent parabolic falls, but no one cares about preventing parabolic increases? Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: Jack of Diamonds on June 12, 2011, 01:29:04 PM http://s3.postimage.org/t03cbxl8z/btc.png
I'd call it Green Saturday. Easiest $1k ever (give or take) thanks to mass hysteria. That's not even counting the $10-11 dip earlier today.

Im happy bitcoins went down. It was not normal. But it has to do with the day because the weekend certain services are closed and can affect the Bitcoin market. I still think it should be open 24/7, but at the end its the decission of the exchanges. Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: AyeYo on June 12, 2011, 01:35:37 PM People will behave differently now that they've seen it crash once. No action is necessary. If only that were true. There will always be a new bubble, and no matter what medium you're trading, peoples' explanations for hysterically buying in will always be the same: "This time is different because _______." Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: Vandroiy on June 12, 2011, 01:49:41 PM You act as if the crash is over. I give you a 50/50 that it has only begun.
Look at NASDAQ Echo and DJIA 1929! If the inflow of money is reduced by current events, you are all about to see what a bust is. I would call the current state the most super-critical we have had so far. Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: digexservice on June 12, 2011, 02:09:11 PM Im not sayinv regulation, more like a voluntary custom for exchangers.
Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: AyeYo on June 12, 2011, 02:23:10 PM Im not sayinv regulation, more like a voluntary custom for exchangers. And what happens when it goes down on a Monday? Do they stop Monday trading too? How about no trading on the third full moon after the second Tuesday of October on even-numbered years? Why don't they just ban selling? Then it'll only go up! Boom/bust is a reality of any market in which humans are involved. The psychology is always the same... http://www.kangarootail.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/FunnyTraderEmotionChart1.png More serious version: http://i55.tinypic.com/34s4c5g.png Learn it, understand it, control it, and profit from it.

This is not true. There are times that given the legal framework are remarcably stable. Title: Re: How to prevent another black saturday Post by: Goldenmaw on June 12, 2011, 02:50:45 PM Bitcoin's little economy is so freakin' tiny that you can expect prices to be all over the place for a long time to come. Plenty of opportunity in chaos.
