I've been told that for a US citizen it  make some difference buying tomorrow instead of today, because of fiscal year. Is this true?

looks to me the hammering stopped the same day of alibaba ipo, far less sell pressure so far

Longs should soon become sell pressure when people takes profit along the way.
Still news is big this time, i think  we will go up

Alex Salmond said bitcoin could be Scotland new currency. I'm wondering if this btc hammering is meant to discourage the divorce from sterling just in case "Yes" wins. Just a random tought, but must say timing is perfect

Nah, they will create a new fiat currency.

Seems impossible to me also, must be a coincidence

Maybe i'm obsessed with ddos, but it seems like stamp trading slowed a lot

I think that 3200 @btce was some short squeezing rerouted through eur market.
The same exchange this year went to trade btc at 100$. I won't call those two events neither a failure nor a success.

Sir, your daily useless graph:

35  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion on: September 15, 2014, 06:55:17 PM
dear mr manipulator:

1) fuck you
2) i won't sell no matter what
3) i will sleep very well even with btc @1$

When I see big dumping this is what I think http://www.arunjain.com/jokes/Shit_-_A_Bird_Story.htm
You'll have to hold tight Bitcoin won't go to a dollar but your faith will be tested.

In my view the manipulator on average are pushing the price up not down. Well that all changes with the coming ETF, as there will be new classes of manipulators, you won't know when you're falling or being dumped on.


I've read that link, i agree about the moral.
That was just a vent, let's just consider point 2 & 3 and forget about 1 Smiley

seems like a huge short or amount of shorts closed

^^ This. Looks like that big buy was no whale accumulator, but a/many shorter(s) closing their positions for low slippage.
Potentailly bearish in reality as 11k was waaay too high for the market to make any significant move down.
Now at 5.5k, there are not enough shorts to squeeze IMO.

What does this mean? I am not very familiar with the technical terms...

That big wall on BFX allowed the majority of the 5k shorts to be closed without moving the price significantly.
Low slippage = executing an order without significantly moving the market  - if the wall had not been there, executing a market buy to close those shorts would have wiped out the order book and pushed the price way higher = high slippage
Hence why they were potentially a sitting duck for a short squeeze. Now that they are gone ...
On the other hand it is bullish that they closed them, right?

Even if we won't have such a sudden spike in price.

I'm afraid those shorts were a warranty against the price going down. Shorts are btc sold for usd with the hope of buying back when price goes down, so (i could be wrong as i lack experience there) in my understanding shorts = potential buy pressure on a downtrend.
Now that market went clear of those, with low slippage also, it could very well go down to squeeze longs without that added buy pressure.
Weren't these shorts a speculation of a falling price? So with them closing, they actually buy new BTC and you never buy before a price you personally see as bottom i'd think.
I'd treat this as bullish

I really don't know, in my opinion those BTC were already sold when opening the short and now are being bought back at a loss, out of margin calls or fear. It's probably a zero sum game. Still now we have less downward resistance than before. What will come out of this situation i don't know becouse honestly i don't understand this market at all, i only hold.

I have a question i hope someone with more insight of market could answer:
Let's say you have a large sum of stolen bitcoins, i mean really a lot of them.
A lot of people, motivated and skilled in blockchain analysis is rightfully after you.
What can you do? You can't trust mixers or any other gambling sites, because the magnitude of the operation will either take too long or expose you.
In my opinion the only thing you can do is transfer them anonimously in a exchange, sell them and buyback with a legit account(s).
For this to work you must choose an exchange with good volume and also without hidden orders books, for those would let you know beforehand the entity of the inevitable loss you are going to take in the operation.

Could this be? don't throw tomatoes please  Grin

There is no "take too long" if you're selling millions in stolen btc.....plus sites like FakeIDKing.com sell scans that pass verification all the time - I've used them for bitstamp before with no issues.


It's really not hard

Dude, why did you do that and why are you talking about it in the forum??  Huh Huh
Also, in this hypothesis, time matters because after one or two bubble dumping 2000 bitcoins, a normal dump in this days, could theoretically crash an entire exchange orderbook. To be more clear: the higher the price the harder it would be for them to dump and buyback (for fiat or "clean" btc) the same number of coins.
