is something starting?

I don't see it.  There are a lot of bids, to be sure ($1.24 million worth right now), but I don't see any giant bid walls going up.

I see 15k BTC of new bids in the mid $6 range.

Shit, shit! Bidwalls going up!

It really is impossible without access to a blockchain... you're right; you wouldn't know the inputs.

As for the rest, I'm not enough of an expert to tell you.

We just failed to hit new lows in this wave so the crash is cancelled. Continue on with the current price range.

This is similar behavior we had around 4 on our way up to 7. There is always the possibility we are about to launch to $11.

We didn't have similar behavior at $4.  The technicals weren't as weak back then as now, and the bullish wedge was much more visible.  
$7.2->$9 is entirely possible, but right now I'm slightly bearish.  Both bears and bulls are waiting for confirmation at this point.

I think this analysis is flawed. The crash stopped at $6.2 and now the bulls have reinforced their positions to the point where the asks look puny in comparison. We will at least test higher levels before another drop is a possibility. Currently the buyers are simply waiting for the sign, when it comes we will test at least $7.2.

I agree that we could easily go either way... it only takes one more spike to invalidate my hypothesis.  It also takes one profit taker to confirm my hypothesis.

Right now, I'll stay cautiously bearish until further confirmation.  I am taking no position on Bitcoinica and I do not recommend shorting with leverage.

edit: Just noticed another head and shoulders... except bullish.  Current situation is damn confusing.

Once the price trends turn around, or even only the trend is not so convincing, the price will crash. I think the price now is at a very vulnerable point. What if after audience of the Good Wife show don't buy in bitcoin? then all the traders confidence will be broken.


Anyone basing their confidence upon a generic legal drama that happens to have a bitcoin episode is making really poor decisions. Most audience members will have zero reason to think bitcoin is anything more then a fictional idea made up for a fictional show. I'm not getting excited and expecting this to raise the price at all. Sure is fun that bitcoin is on a tv show, but any price climb tonight will be speculation and not new people jumping on board. It will take days for the 0.5% of the audience that discovers it is real to get their money on an exchange.

+1

If you want mass Bitcoin acceptance, you need a client/miner/exchange-account all wrapped into one.  Do you know how nice it would've been to install my client and have instant access to trading and mining?

Hmm, interesting.  Someone should do this... complete with nice warnings for newbies.  Also, there should be no blockchain download... Electrum is nice.

I think if you short right now, put a stop at 7.2 and go long at 7.3, you can't possibly lose.  Smiley

We will be moving out of this perpetual $6.25-7.22 range soon enough.  MACD is crossing down and there's an obvious head & shoulders pattern.  The long-term support is getting close to the $7-7.2 resistance, and bearish signals are starting to show up, so it looks like it's more likely for the long-term support to break.

My opinion is that the TV show won't do too much, and if it causes new money to come in at all, it won't come instantly.  Look out for a reasonably large correction before the rally continues.

i am waiting for good wife fanbots

if the grizzly god help me on this one i will have to sacrifice a virgin or something

You'll get wiped out with 50% chance if we go to 7.2.  You should reconsider.

I am so grateful to read that at least one person didn't forget about “Tortoise-Pigeon-Dog”.


Shocked

Due to the large amount of new account requests I have decided to suspend new accounts until the time comes when I need more.  The top post will show the current status as it changes.

Shocked


wow...
1874  Economy / Speculation / Re: Gearing up for tomorrow on: January 15, 2012, 04:55:16 AM
We're beginning to rally.  I suspect we'll be going over 7.2 soon, but it's rather unpredictable.

One thing is clear.  Just before it breaks 7.2, go long 10:1.
1875  Economy / Speculation / Re: RALLY! on: January 15, 2012, 12:02:28 AM
I just want to note that if we get another spike of the same magnitude as the previous two, it could break resistance at 7.2 and carry us all the way to 8.  However, we'll have to wait and see.

This is the deciding moment for this rally.  Everyone, watch this weekend closely.  Anything from $5 to $9 is possible.

As someone mentioned above, it may not hash well per dollar, but its resale value is higher.
1879  Economy / Speculation / Re: Here it comes on: January 14, 2012, 07:25:54 PM
The long-term trendline has held... for now.  I will be staying out of the market for now -- it doesn't have a strong direction and I will be observing it.

If you don't mind me asking, what indicators/signs are going to get you back in?

Breaking $7.20 barrier?  Going below latest support? Just curious... Smiley

Below long-term trendline: Short
Above 7.2: Long

And one of these will happen very soon... within this week.  This is the biggest bullish wedge ever, and it'll be fun to watch, whichever way it goes.
