cmon guys take it to the PMs.

I would definitely buy few at 106.5 if I had money, bounce to 109-110 was so predictable.
The bounce happened in less than 2 minutes..... cmon. |

Donk donk donk donk! $110 wall gettin chewed up.

LOL trading Bitcoin on margin sure gets that blood flowing.
Where? bitfinex What kind of leverage do they offer? I don't see it on their FAQ... |

Also, are 99 BTC sells placed to intentionally stay below most users clarkmoody "ding!" sound? I feel like this is probably the case. Seen a few 99 BTC orders today.

Interesting choice... dumping just before the end of the longest bank holiday of the year.
i also found this a little perplexing. |

Thanks - from there i see ema10 crosses above - is that not a buy signal? EMA means Exponential Moving Average. A convergence and/or crossing from above of the EMA-10 thru the EMA-21 essentially means there is a downward-price-trend forming. EMA is similar to Simple Moving Average, only that most recent changes are given more 'weight' or importance. |

Just wait until the 10 and 21 EMAs cross... BOOM!
hourly crossing now |

Some folks need to do their reading...
There is no complete design for DIY avalon because there is no fully documented avalon chip datasheet yet. Everyone is 90% done and must wait for the datasheet to drop, then they can send off their prototype runs for mfg and release stuff (if they choose) to the masses (us).
Until then, wait and read.

Well... $115 was a previous resistance on May 2 and all day today (-7utc). We've broken through it, but not with much force. I can't see it holding, and for my own sake i hope it doesn't until a revisit on monday or tuesday!  |

$117 with many big buys. its 10AM sunday in hong kong. are we sure this action is from the CCTV news piece?

Shit that $115 wall getting eaten up like crazy
edit: $116. So much for my weekend short position for monday madness...

Keep day-trading if you want, but you should think about something useful for the bitcoin economy, for example make things and sell them. heh, in the process of creating something now, plus an avalon design which I will only sell for btc. |

Bitcoin isn't a stock. Don't trade it, if you believe the idea has merit, know there will be a finite number of coins, you can only win by holding and only trading out for more than you paid.
I watched Bitcoin for a long time before taking any action (check my registration date here). I decided finally that I wanted to use BTC as a currency and store of value and bought in for 85 through 120 USD. I now find myself day trading because it's the only option I have to try and retain value of my store (with respect to myself) besides praying that the price goes up. And that's messed up. That's not a currency, it's an attempt at using a stock as a store of value. The above doesnt really reflect the totality of how I feel about the Bitcoin project, but its a gimpse. |

local top will be top of this 2-day channel, or top of bollinger band (couple hour difference).

I believe BKKcoin has mentioned about wanting to make a test board either with the avalon sample chips or a "dummy" that emulates their functioning?
I certainly want to do this as well, the way i see it there are two major things to test
1. Board functionality - Ideally done with a sample chip, but you can test a lot of things (uC, interface, layout/assembly, power supply [dummy load the QFN pads with their DC current draw - although you can't test Vcc noise]) even without the chip.
2. QFN Heat dissipation - this is the tricky part. I haven't been able to look but i was considering the possibility of getting another QFN chip that produces the same TDP and testing out the thermal resistance. of course if we can get our hands on the sample chips, this makes it easier to test everything.
to be honest though i wouldn't expect it to cost in 1000$. the most expensive part would be the 4 layer PCB and the annoyance of assembling the boards (or the price if you get someone to pick&place + reflow them)
I just threw out a number, but I dont think its that far off. 4-layer PCB containing all those components + overengineered/backup components, probably $400-500 for 3-day turn for 2-4 boards. If you wanted to test work dividing, you'd need at least 2 avalons. So thats $200 in carriers. Add all the other components and shipping, and you start creeping up on $1000 very quickly. Anyway I think i'm going to go this route regardless of community support. Time for me to brush up on my coding skillz. |

so yeah - saving a few cents here and there won't really matter.
Why not? I'm not saying the board design should prioritize price over quality, but there's also no point in spending more money than what is needed. 10 cents saved on a $150 purchase has the same value as 10 cents saved on a $1 purchase. Your time would be much better served trying to buy BTC cheap then, since it's the majority of the cost. what i mean is it's not worth trying to penny pinch, time is the #1 most important factor here, I would say design a PCB Assembly that you know will work (over engineer it where possible) and test it as throughally as possible prior to the actual chips arriving This being said, I have seen QFN-48 clamshell chip carriers around with thick gold plated slugs for the center pad. Since Avalon sample chips are coming earlier than the full batches, would it be helpful to make a, say, 2- or 4-avalon board with all the necessary hardware (interface uC, smaller version of power supply) to test/debug software on? I'd imagine you could get at least 20-30 seconds of full speed hashing before thermal issues arose (whereas with an unmounted chip I wouldn't trust it hashing for more than 2-3 seconds). That way you could finalize your design with higher confidence, and possibly have near-complete boards ready and waiting when the full Avalon batches show up. http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/3M-Electronic-Solutions-Division/288-4205-01/?qs=sGAEpiMZZMsF5fZXKZXt6HnXba9GH55j3eF08QDY59M%3dIt'd probably cost you about $1000 to develop this prototype/debug platform. I'd be willing to lead the PCB design on this. My code writing is kinda weak, but how hard could it be to pass some data from usb/cgminer to I2C/SPI/UART? Anyway, I'm sure someone like BKKcoins would be willing to help =) |
