Title: To what time trade/buy people?
Post by: porcupine87 on November 26, 2013, 10:38:10 PM
So, everybody talks always about "wait, until China wakes up". But do there really wake up and buy after the first coffee? We know, we have 3 world regions: East Asia (0), Europe( +6), America (+12). How much volume would you assigne to this regions? 30%,30%, 30%?

But to what time do people buy or just react (could be selling, too):
- When they wake up? How many traders are professional?
- after the work day? They come home at 6p.m. and then spend some time on the computer or they heard of Bitcoin from colleagues at work and try to buy after work?

Thoughts?

They buy after they pull down their trousers and squeeze out their first morning dump (which is always glorious). They then go straight back to bed. They're also trolling.

I don't think China is leading the price any more. Just buy when you are comfortable. Choose a price a bit below the current price that you are comfortable with, then place a bid just below that, and wait. Short timescales in bitcoin are just random noise, ignore them.
