Euphoria usually breeds a downturn. If I were a trader I'd be selling (actually I am selling but just because someone on localbitcoins wants to buy). I predict a correction over the weekend, but still hanging over $400 which is all good.
I tend not to recommend buying bitcoins to people. If they understand it, they deserve to buy at this low price. If not, they are part of the reason we need Bitcoin in the first place. I told my family to buy some when it was $17 because I wanted them to all share in the benefit but nobody bought.
Most recently I did post on Facebook the fact that I don't usually recommend buying but when the price was $235 I told people who were on the fence that they should buy. The price jumped then fell back below $235 for about a week but then climbed from there. I'm not sure if anyone listened.
nobody bought when i told them about it too
they could of gotten a very early ticket to the moon.
i gave a few 1BTC for xmas one year, worth ~20-30$, and they cashed out from 150 - 700

buying in the $235's would of been the thing to do, but i think everyone bought a little at 500+ and 400 and 300 and 158.5!
440 feels a bit toppy, but if there was any doubt left i think its gone today, bull market! buy buy buy!
