The most likely outlook from a charting view is a continued rally . once 0.5-0.51 is broken substantially to the upside, the rally may accelerate towards 1$

You can get some historical prices from yahoo finance: I.e for the DJI and for most other financial instruments. http://finance.yahoo.com/q/hp?s=%5EDJI+Historical+PricesI used to download this stuff in excel some years ago and built my own charts using excel. However, this is too tedious for me and since I have no clue about web design etc.. this does not make sense to me.

Yes, exactly. This is what I had in mind.
This would be neat, and I am not aware of a sizeable other index that outperformed bitcoins in the past 6-12 months.

If you replace EUR / USD with BTC/USD we would see that Bitcoins rise much more than even Gold in recent history.

I posted this also in a new thread: In our efforts to grow the bitcoin idea, it would be useful to show laymen that Bitcoins are the best investment vs. most other financial instruments. To show that effectively, comparative charts of BTC / USD vs. Gold, Silver, DJI, other commodities would be brilliant.
Who has the technical capability to add this into some existing bitcoincharts sites?
thanks for leting me know.
I would like to add this perspective ideally regularly into my Bitcoin Analyses.

Online Gold
This is one of the best and foremost simplest expressions. The only question to that is how to avoid confusing people with e-Gold and alikes? perhaps: ONLINE WEALTH

Even during this weekend, the rally goes on.
We are already at 0.48 $.
One can even wonder what happens if some bigger players not only put 5k, 10k into bitcoins but 100k, 1 million. I would not be surprised if some hegdefunds would do that.
Of course this is pure speculation, but you never know.
Anyway this is a healthy rally. and I agree, it might be that some people wonder why they sold them at 0.48 or 0.50, etc. when prices are at 1$, 10$, 100$ per bitcoin (and vice versa as slush has written above)

Bitcoins for Egypt!
The new currency for the people .
... But before they need to open up the Internet in Egypt again ( they shut it down a week ago for the public)! unbelievable.

1 question
Why has there not been any trading since Jan 23?
|
|
|
corrected. The link works now.
And in the meanwhile, prices already fulfilled the shortterm forecast , reaching 0.445
|
|
|
I'd be considering becoming an investor.
Also, I have experience in marketing if you need to grow / expand it in any point of time.

Just for fun: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fbitcointalk.org%2Findex.php%3Faction%3Ddlattach%3Btopic%3D1942.0%3Battach%3D734&t=663&c=rdmChtl-2jJVeg) Great. Do we have an update including January?

you have the right thinking
I will let some others explain more technical details but here are two answers quickly.
1) with a normal pc or laptop you will most likely not mine any bitcoin, as difficulty has increased. you need to run the client to make payments but you can run it with "generate" switched off
2) look at bitcoinme.com for a simple bitcoin explaination
3) bank wire to mtgox.com or bitcoin-central.net is one simple way to buy coins
Thanks for your passion and keep it up
