Title: Where has all the volume gone? Post by: zkay on March 26, 2013, 10:33:54 PM What's up? Someone said in another thread, there are very few trades going on on gox right now. Any ideas why? With so much money on the bid side, it just seems weird.Are people waiting for the price to do something? Drop or rise?
