Title: Could boring be good? Post by: Sargasm on January 25, 2012, 03:56:25 AM I know that it's a lot more exciting to day trade with volatility... but if there is long term price stability in BTC, wouldn't that kind of help aide in it's adoption in the larger marketplace?
I mean... anyone counting on a BTC -> oz gold equivalency is going to need a shit freakin ton more value in the BTC economy to accomplish. Title: Re: Could boring be good?

Post by: Sargasm on January 25, 2012, 04:17:47 AM Well... the bid price support has been increasing in a somewhat linear way. Who knows if that means anything.
Title: Re: Could boring be good? Post by: kjj on January 25, 2012, 04:43:45 AM I used this time to move my standing buy orders WAY down. If we spike up a dollar after this calm, I have other coins and I win. If we spike down a dollar, I want more coins because I don't believe it will stay down for long.
Don't take this as advice. I'm working with like $120. Title: Re: Could boring be good? Post by: gurg2.o on January 25, 2012, 05:04:35 AM Short term no, long term yes

I should have started a betting pool on how low the next knife would go. The questions now are probably "When will it move back to the $6.20 range?" and "Will it overshoot on the way?".
