Title: resistance at $5.3 deteriorating
Post by: bitcoinBull on June 04, 2012, 06:42:31 AM
The wall at $5.3 is withering away (was equal in size to the bid wall. now half).

The ask wall is growing not deteriorating - the bid wall was doubled, but it was also moved down.  I personally don't expect much down move - but it is now correction time.

Thanks for clearing that up; I wasn't watching closely enough. Bid wall doubled then.

I agree with you; it is time for a correction. An upward correction, before resuming the long-term upward mega-trend!

It's hard to know anything in this market but I do think that we're in a blatant bear trap right now. $5.5 will be at least tested soon.

The bear trap would be if we test $5.0-$5.1 one last time before gapping back up. But as of now, it looks like $5.5 is going to get squeezed sooner rather than later.

When things look like this on the depth chart I get suspicious of an impending dump.

was that a sell or just the manipulator pulling of the wall?
it's time, the real investors take up the upward pressure and not let themselves being manipulated

It was a 13k sell into the smaller bidwall. The huge bidwall got pulled.

Edit: And the askwall got a lot smaller.

yes now the 10k bid wall at 5.30 is equivalent to the 10k at 5.17
im not pessimistic right now...

The walls set the price.

The walls set the price.

The walls come and go. They don't effect the probability/price distributions, and contain about the same amount of information as noise. I have measured it. And that is about all the information I feel like feeding this market.

Its not easy to measure the information in a signal. I guess I have to sacrifice one of my own secrets to win this battle.



Quote
One of the key observations of inventory models is that the shape of the order book is predictive of impending changes in the market price. Figure 10.4 illustrates the phenomenon identified by Cao, Hansch, and Wang (2004). In panel (a), market price is “pushed” by a large concentration of conservative limit orders.
Cao, Hansch, and Wang (2004) find that the shape of the limit order book is actively exploited by market-making traders. Cao, Hansch, and Wang (2004) also find that the breadth and depth (also known as the length and height) of the limit order book predicts 30 percent of the impending price moves. Furthermore, the asymmetry in the order book generates additional information.

Again with the walls... They come, they go, unless you know in advance where they will show or drop it's not tradeable.

Market makers adjust the depth of their limit orders to the rate of market orders (usually). Thin depth on one side indicates high demand and low supply. As short-term signals they are as good as anything else, probably one of the best. Who can deny that the recent action is due to the massive bid wall?

Nobody knows anything in advance (except insiders). What's more tradable than walls?

Quantitative probability...

a(a) + $Xr(B/A) + %X[%Xr(B/A)] + 2%X(v(B/A)+a(B/A)

= 8$

I suppose you're right. And if you calculate that for the rest of us mere mortals, you can use it to give us... walls.

Me too. But I'm sad he deleted most of his posts!

There are many factors that could affect profits, stochastic variations (outside the assumptions of a particular quantitative probabilisitic model) for one. Bitcoinica spreads could be another.

Chodpaba should put his model back up. It might increase profits if perhaps instead of trying to follow market, the market tries to follow chodpaba!

If I wanted to manipulate the market with that sort of signaling I totally would. But I don't think it is the best thing for the health of Bitcoin exchange markets, and I'm not that interested in the short game.
i just think, that another hard increase of bitcoinvalue would produce much media-backing what could bring Bitcoin to the final breakout and more bitcoin acceptance.

An increase will only get attention if it goes up and stays up.  If it shoots up everybody will just respond "give it a week, it will be back down".  Manipulation is not how we get to steady valuations above today's prices.
