This dump is such a relief, I almost feel grateful for the bears/Avalon gods, etc. Finally the RSI could dip below 70 for a while, if it were to stay above there, I would really not know what to do.

Down...

Meh, its only down a little.  We could be plateau-ing here for a bit before we move up again.  
I think its likely we'll have support at $19.5.  If not there then $17.7, but I don't think we'll go that low.

Only 4000btc to get to $17.70, after about 25,000 gets dumped  Smiley

How did you get that 25k btc dumped? Was it just volume of all transactions? (bought and sold)?



Just an estimation after the initial 10,000 dump and the following sell-offs. Looking at the wall pic I posted earlier it might have been between 15,000 to 20,000 sold. It was a lot though  Smiley

It was not a lot, if that's all the ammunitions they have.

Keep in your mind, whenever you panic sell, you are giving us arbitragers a good chunk of your fortune. Wink

Ever since I started trading Bitcoins, I began to like Monday more than weekends. Grin

The spread is quite big.
2406  Economy / Speculation / Avalon doesn't need to dump on Mt.Gox on: February 02, 2013, 02:50:31 AM
I can't figure out why many here believe they will. They could do dark pool sellings out of the exchange, many people/corporations/direct buying organizations would be willing to buy their bitcoins at some fixed prices.
2407  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker on: February 02, 2013, 01:58:54 AM
Adam, just hit the buy button!  Cheesy


no, I have absolute confidante in bitcoin ability to out of the blue crash down 10-30%  Wink

How conservative you have become! Where are my $12.5 bitcoins? Wink
2408  Economy / Speculation / Re: New All-Time-High of Bitcoin versus Gold today - will it go even higher? on: February 02, 2013, 01:50:32 AM
http://www.numbersleuth.org/worlds-gold/ gives the total amount of gold in the world at 165000 metric tons. For 21,000,000 BTC and a gold price of 1600 USD an ounce this works out to 400,000 USD per BTC for an equal market cap for bitcoin and gold.

wow... now the long term goal is clear...



Why? Only a small percentage of these golds are investable, you know better than me about this.
2409  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never reach $30 again on: February 01, 2013, 01:04:43 PM
proudhon, what facts back that up? 2013 is still a very young year.

I'm not actually predicting $30 but you're implying BTC/USD will crash hard enough it won't rebound for 11 months. That's pretty bearish...

Proudhon doesn't need no stinking facts. Do a search for his predictions, he's typically not just wrong, but 180 degrees off, with remarkable consistency :-)

The last couple of his predictions were actually shattered in the next 48 hour period. So he's getting even more precise in his imprecision, if you see what I mean.

More impressively, if you read his last posts, you will see that for months he did next to nothing on this forum but try to convince people to sell and short. Wink
2410  Economy / Speculation / Re: Where do you think we are in the bubble? on: February 01, 2013, 10:20:49 AM
In a bubble people will buy out of panic, there is not enough panic in the market yet--nothing close to what we had last time. People are still buying quite cautiously, and many are buying to spend, many are dumping, usually in huge amount, no single day long green candle yet, if this is a bubble, then perhaps all great long-term price rises should be classified as bubbles as well. I am not saying that the price would not go down, I just don't think it's a bubble-not yet.

You are right in the sense that the only panic buying of the latest, was from Gox Dollar accounts plus some additional 10-15% new cash.

However there are wallets out there with people that mined a little or much in 2009-2010, and they might feel it is worth while to register with Gox now and collect!

The sideways periods are a good detector for old coins going into circulation, so if we stay at around 20 for a week or three, I will consider your assumption right.

What you describe is a hype bubble, but all bubbles are, when they start to decline the asset was overvalued i.e. an unfunded hype.

I'm not saying that the price now is unsustainable or that we are going to see a crash soon, just that it will go down again. The cycle lows are usually a better indicator of support than the peaks.

I could agree with many of the things you said, but what I think we should really be aware of is that when the people on this forum talk about "Bubble", what they most likely have somewhere in their minds a specific phenomenon they have seen before, thus I think it is worth pointing out the difference between what we are seeing now and "that" phenomenon.

We may not have entered the bubble phase yet, as long as we get a correction every two days. In a bubble there would be nearly no correction until the busting.
2413  Economy / Speculation / Re: New All-Time-High of Bitcoin versus Gold today - will it go even higher? on: February 01, 2013, 06:03:36 AM
1. this is why I mentioned that the BTC/Gold ratio is at an all time high, which is independent from absolute unit effects

2. what is the "mkt cap" of Silver and Gold?


We can not tell, but we can estimate, in orders of tens of billions of USD, hundreds of billions, etc. We don't really need to reach a so-called "parity", just to have a roughly comparable market is enough of a statement.
2414  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin will never reach $20 again on: February 01, 2013, 04:45:29 AM
I am actually  interested in what kind of a person the OP maybe. Many of the things he said makes completely no sense at all.
2415  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP. on: February 01, 2013, 04:33:28 AM

lol!  oh, THAT guess.  at least i guessed UP, not down, from where it was at the time.  Cheesy

Yeah, and actually you were closer than many. But you made me thinking for a while what are the reasons we would not be above $20 by then! Grin
2416  Economy / Speculation / Re: New All-Time-High of Bitcoin versus Gold today - will it go even higher? on: February 01, 2013, 04:15:37 AM
Pound/ounce are just random units people came up with, unlike 1 BTC, which is exactly 1/2100000 of the total amount of bitcoins that will ever be in circulation. So I think the important question to ask is if the total market cap of bitcoin could reach a significant percentage of that of silver,
2417  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP. on: February 01, 2013, 12:58:13 AM
We just made history.

Unfortunately your guess on Feb 1st price would probably be wrong then. Wink

which guess was this?

This is exponential function you insensitive clod!  Wink

Do we have a big boss who will let small fishes eating up all the ask orders between integers, then personally intervene to take down the walls at integers?

This is sheer madness.
