Title: Can we get an ETA on when trading will resume?
Post by: kentrolla on July 21, 2012, 07:41:45 AM
ATM all trading is frozen, and it happened during a huge rally :(   i guess the order was too big to fill or something. I just want and ETA on when trading will resume because i have some orders that i would like to cancel, but i can't cancel them right now because MtGox won't let me. It's been almost 5 hours that trading has been frozen and still no word about what is going on. I just want to know if i should stay up and wait for trading to resume or if i should just go to sleep. I know its the weekend so Mark probably won't realize what is going on until monday.  If someone knows his phone number, plz call him and inform him of this issue. He probably doesn't check his mtgox e-mail on the weekends.

Apparently they know about it and are working on fixing the problem.

It's thought that Tihan acquired equity in TradeHill...

And the fund he represented bought Bitcoinica...

Mt Gox users are praying he doesn't acquire equity in Gox.

Seems that trading has resumed.

CAN WE GET NOTICE IF THAT 40k BUY UP TO $9.30 WAS REAL OR NOT?

you can see it at 10am on http://bitcoin.clarkmoody.com/

looks like 50k coins (ed: hmm, closer to 70k volume)

i put a sell in at $9.50, seems bizarre that someone would spend enough to get 50k, then let all these sub 9's fill in w/o buying again in a few days.  

err, well, 50k was too much anyway.  should just buy 10k then let all the sellers file in, wait 8 hrs, etc

High today is 9.7, so I'd think yes.
