Title: lol that is one sharp spike
Post by: Houdini on August 07, 2011, 02:26:04 AM
The price just spiked from 6.5 to 9.5 on TH and back down to 7.5 almost instantly ! And to think I sold at 8, damn it ! Someone could really have made a killing, buying at 6.5 and selling at 9.5 ! Only the spike was too fast for non-bots (humans) !

Haha yep.  I lost $4 earlier on a shit-ton of BTC (I'm still amazed it was only $4 given the # of BTC).  I had bought immediately after the initial dump and was shocked that it didn't go up to at least the middle between the pre- and post- dump price.  Signs looked bad, so I cut my losses at transaction fees only and sold.  Here I was, 10 minutes ago, thinking my skills and intuition were brilliant.  I didn't take into account the x factor haha.
