yeah, essentially i had to cash out additional btc to cover the bill i was attempting to pay. which means i cashed out the btc that arrived in my bank account for absolutely no reason. could have gotten my 20%, i just paid a coinbase fee for the hell of it. and now i have to buy more btc. so more exchange fees. and this new, very high BTC price. sold some discount coin to some lucky soul.

.....

guess i should have kept the coins in my wallet.

.....

................

as i type this, im thinking that maybe coinbase might want to make this right by us. i just realized i was being petty diplomatic about this situation. i understand things happen. but this... sucks ass.

i wont naysay them, but im disappointed with my first coinbase experience.

price of btc is moments away from its historic peak. ppl will be liquidating positions to peg to fiat in case the price of btc falls. expect a slight dip in the price of cex ghs if it breaks the ceiling. its pretty obvious its gonna go higher than 250 eventually, so not that concerned.


but yeah, don't know what's up with these prices. perhaps this is the unmanipulated market at work? selling pressure is starting to increase a bit. price support at .1, .095, .083, .08. if it breaks .08. it going right to .07 with that massive wall sitting there. lesser walls beyond that, but at that point, unless you purchased at the bottom of market last change you are already at a loss.


still waiting to feast.

hey, Olaf, I'm having a similar problem, sell order initiated on 10/29 that hasn't hit the bank account yet/shows a pending transaction. I also have received no response from support yet. I'm going to PM you my account details as well; that there is rent money (i hold virtually no fiat, full adoption whenever possible!) and I sense I'm going to have to eat a late fee in this


so, I'm no more important than the next fellow with the same dilemma, but please have a look for me when you can? I need to know if I might need to divest additional funds to cover this until it sorts out.

appreciated in advance,
Green

im confused abut this as well. i expected the .12 peak, but i was genuinely suprised when the market moved beyond that and even touched .14 with brief support. rode from .083 to .095, got off, got back on at .099 and rode til .118. i want to reenter but the price is much too high at the moment/violates my internal rubric for purchase.

when it does crash (current selling pressure + thin buy side) it will be messy.

and i will sift though the rubble and hash again.


just takes one panic seller with a large enough position to bring it all down.

its so early after the difficulty change that there's plenty of time for the price to drift up before the ritual super crash that happens a few days before the next difficulty change. it seems like ppl are buying and selling more rationally this difficulty period. we would have been past the .1 wall had it not been undercut all day. Once the .1 wall gets eaten up, no resistance til .103-.104. if we break past that, .119 is gonna happen again just curious as to how soon this will happen. hopefully Monday volume (workplace traders) moves the book along quickly. i don't see the market moving past those giant orders at .13 and .14, however. thats a gambler's buy.


Green

i wondered about this also when i woke up to the btc price drop this morning. just noticed a ghs price correction down to .09 ish, but it will prolly drift back up to .094-.095. plenty of support in the .091-.093. i think any price rise above .1 is optimistic, but entirely possible. market price adjusted to the dif change BEFORE the change actually happened plenty of time for the price to drift beyond .1 ...    we will see

not so much panic selling this time. you guys are getting better at this 

buyer beware. there is price support at .078, but if that wall is breached, its gonna plummet to .0551. the buy side of the order book is looking pretty suspect/fraudulent at the moment. selling pressure is bananas.

give me a day or two to pass this info along and confer. excited about this!

also look at wicker baskets shaped like boats, and possibly building the model out of polymer clay or some other lightweight, moldable and fireable material. 

 

I'm going to take NineLives seriously, and advise him against what he is about to do. There is a person behind every persona on this board, and in my limited experience of life; its pretty fucking hard to predict irrational human behavior.

He won't be that hard to find for any serious investigative outfit ($$$). Hell, simply finding his sister is sufficient for this particular approach (she would be more than forth coming in person, I bet). In fact, I pretty much assure you that that you will be able to locate him, pretty easily if you have the money. But when you catch up with him, you will have to make a binary option with an outcome I don't think you will want to be associated with. I'm pretty sure the government agency that monitors this board won't appreciate the vigilantism.

If you are going to follow through however, this is probably the last public discussion of it you should entertain/undertake.

chew on this:

Proverbs 10:2 - Treasures of wickedness profit nothing...

Jeremiah 17:11 - ...he who gets riches, but not by right; It will leave him in the midst of his days, And at his end he will be a fool.

(and we all know that, like Mr T., God does not suffer or pity fools)

dont know your faith, or if you even care, but some wise words to consider.

im interested in this. let me do a little research into the scope of this so i can give an estimate/accurate time frame. honestly, this may be beyond my technical expertise at the moment (I typically carve hair toys for my fiancee as a labor of love, few other larger projects) but have a buddy with extensive access to tools and quite a bit of personal experience. want to run the whole thing by him; have a few questions for clarity:


do you have desired dimensions? (possible oblong/irregular objects to fit inside of it)

preferred materials? an extremely light wood, but fragile, like balsa, or a sturdier wood that will persist but is much more expensive and much, much heavier (intl shipping), like oak?

any particular longship? they vary a lot between the cultures that utilized them

will it need to be painted (not a simple stain and clear coat, will it need bitcoin logos painted on the side?also, the final coat might need to be applied after the detail paint work, ie after shipping)

will it need additional carving/ crenellation on the outer surface? (such as a carved or embossed bitcoin logo). this restricts the types of wood

will any logos/symbols need to be burned into the outer surface (think ammo crate lettering). same wood consideration.

are we reproducing the benches? are we reproducing the oars? the detail work eats up the hours.

does it need to be seaworthy?

and finally, the missus can sew or knit the sail if you have problems finding someone for this.

sorry for the info dump, but this sounds like a fun project to get wrapped up in, will try to see if I have the time for this 

and, I will have to say, you will probably get away cheaper trying to find a product like this that already exists in the wild and modifying it to your taste. I will be on the look out for wooden toys and or models that might accommodate this.

Green

Ah, I didn't not see this post before I last posted, my apologies. Will test out these new recommended settings, and I understand this is not the "proper" usage of this and have appropriate expectations. Thanks! After evaluation will strongly consider purchase of this product, I appreciate the work that was put into this, and the level of support provided to the customers.

Green

Exactly. Which is why I have no wish to use the product in this manner. No problem with the math behind the software; I just am of the mind that a reasonably informed rational market participant is more effective that a piece of code.


And, I disagree. There is plenty of profit potential in the current market. Unfortunately, that means monitoring the price and order book in real time. It sucks much ass.

I suppose you are right. I guess I actually don't have a use for this software then. I need stop loss functionality with Bitstamp, and upon later inspection  this doesn't provide that, or I have been unable to figure out how to accomplish this. I apologize if my use of the phrase "willy nilly"seemed to indicate a negative opinion of the product. That is definitely not the case.
Thanks!

hit nail on the head. greater fool's game.

some things ive observed:
+ keep small positions to exit quickly
+ enter positions looking for valuation on uptrends, not from mining profits. the longer you hold with this, the more market variance you are exposed to
+ be careful with reinvesting mining profits. check price before you extend your position
+ keep an eye on the time till the difficulty change
+ keep an eye on the severity of the upcoming difficulty change
+ buying pressure is strongest right after the change
+ selling pressure begins a few (3-4?) and peaks right before the change


read and understand the order book constantly!

Trying out the demo for this, would like to utilize this for a stop loss function for this software on bitstamp. I don't wish to have the bot actively trading. Is there setting that will allow the stop loss feature to activate during a crash, but doesn't have the bot making trades all willy nilly?

im not so sure about this.

i could be mistaken, but if im correct, all the mining on ghash.io as a result of a cex.io share purchase mines into the user account balance (for ease of reinvestment.). You can manually divide mining payout by percentage to different addresses, but only for external workers that you direct at the pool. played with the settings on this feature (was trying to send the cex.io mining profits to two external wallets, divided in half). dont own a physical miner, so haven tested it. hope this clears things up.

Green

mayhap someone can simply test this? ghash.io doesnt seem like a bad pool to mine with

oh, for you exchange dudes, bitstamp price is approaching the 30 day high. something ive been watching for a few hours

edit, much later:think it will hit 160?

i wish
id have gotten into asicminer at ipo

if there is enough buying pressure to move past the wall at .1413-.1415 (ppl keep undercutting the wall; a couple of larger orders started to spring up around it) i think it will stabilize at .145 for a bit. I might have been a touch optimistic initially, but if we get past the second wall at .145ish, buying/selling interest will peak around .15 . there is still enough time, just need more buying pressure. i dont think the market will be that excited about buying past .15 (massive sell order will turn the momentum around) that close to a dif change, just depends how fast the uptrend develops) the sell support around .149-.15 there will probably be the peak, and i think it will trend downward from then on, to where, no idea. just things the orderbook (in its present state) seem to indicate. i could have never seen that crash a few days ago.

its kinda weak, my position is closed atm, saw the BMR thing on reddit and exited just in case we saw a price dip on the news (oddly, noone really seemed to care, missed out on 12 hours of mining for nothing). looking for a rentry point now on a quick in and out.

keep your eyes on the difficulty guys.

this shit is comedy GOLD.


every replay, this gets funnier.

"TheSwede75 sent me a PM, we saw the chip photos, very detailed.."

"well they promised they would bring immense hash power.. dominate the network"

"plz don't touch the wheelchair"

as the tears stream down my face , i know my neighbor is convinced im crazy.

Since the difficulty just occurred recently, i see the price flirting up to .145-.15 BRIEFLY. alot are still panic selling, and when the weaker hands shake out we will see the price drift up a bit. the current price still offers a really decent rate of return, ppl wont mind buying in a little higher, methinks. the larger investors dont start selling off until 4 days before the dif change.. there is a window after the change in which buyers are confident there wont be a major devaluation, and increase buying pressure.  ppl seem to forget this market was manipulated and then accidentally crashed the same night. the prices you are seeing aren't indicative of market sentiment. i even wonder if that huge order clearing selloff was a last ditch effort to stabilize the price at .17 (didn't work).

but anyway, ppl forget:
free electricity
resale value (try to resell that block eruptor in this market)


...add to the value of the gh. calculate accordingly

Green

p.s. large investors, exit the market cleanly, and exit positions gradually so you don't influence price with those huge ass sell walls ppl are so fond of throwing up
