thanks for the hints,
we will see how this auction will turn out
1063  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Hardcore on: June 12, 2013, 01:33:45 AM
the spike made the crossover,  the crossover did not make the spike.

Good point - really hard to tell without a higher resolution.  So you think it was a single big buy?

Yup. You're going to need at least 2880×1800 resolution to see it clearly. Macbook Pro Retina is great for this kind of thing.

sent bush .5 bitcoin and after he received first conformation he went awol.
Why didn't you use escrow?
So, Bush is Scammer?
he pm me and ask to send first?

sorry for if i get flase impression here, but something really still smells kind of fishy to me

hi bush,
thanks that you've given feedback.
as i told you before when everything went fine and everybody's happy,
you won't have any disadvantage from that.
don't consider it as case of internetpolice but of contribution to security of auctions by a concerned user,
as there were a lot of scams with auctions of miner shares lately.


although suddenly these links popped up on my thread:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=217447.msg2321829#msg2321829

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=220402.0

Found more of his accounts. Confirmed by the same BTC address

well, after reading that as a newbie to auctions i really have no clue anymore what's going on and who is scamming who.
i hope friedcat will clear any misunderstanding and then your reputation won't be harmed in any way.

any updates on this ?

not from my side.
bush could have at least given an open statement to the whole thing.
(until now his only reaction was one pm)

Extra tinfoil!   Wink

up up and away
1070  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Hardcore on: June 11, 2013, 02:51:02 AM
Thanks for all the feedback guys. I have traded before but would still consider myself a newbie since my experience level is low. I am always looking at the charts and the market data. I am not trying to make frequent trades without the day. Just trying to buy as low as i can and sell when its high. I am playing with a few grand so i wouldn't mind making a few bucks here and there while learning.  Grin
good luck and enjoy the show
(in other words always keep popcorn and tinfoil at hand Smiley)

Newbie trader here. Would like some trading tips. I see consolidation is happening right around $105.00-$106.00 area for the past few hours. Usually does this mean it will break out upward after or will it drop? Thanks in advance.

with the current market situation i wouldn't recommend trading within the narrow price swings.
always consider if your possible gain in profit is worth the risk of buying back in at loss.
that risk depends if you're more oriented towards shortterm or mid to longterm trading.
(i'm longterm so i don't care about 10- 20 $ swings)

I recommend just starting to read the thread for a while and don't hesitate to ask questions.
after some time you are able to filter out the useful posts from the fud.

(ah and somebody's member status isn't always suggesting more trustworthiness in his comments,
the colour of ignore button helps to separate the wheat from the chaff from time to time)



The pro has spoken.  Roll Eyes Haha just fucking with ya.

i wouldn't consider myself pro in any sense, i made lot of mistakes after the burst of the bubble
(bought in at loss more than once because i got shaky hands in fear of missing some action).
my advice is just based on my experiences when i took part in this game and on what i think i should have sticked with then...
everybody has to figure out on their own what style of trading suits them most.

besides that i gave up hope to find a pic of a drunken monkey in front of a computer on the web Wink

i think we can make a new high off this rally, 180 , and i think we can do it in 2 weeks time.

bears, prepare to shit yourselves

 Cool

You've been kind of on point lately, but this one is a bit far-fetched to me. I'll have to keep an eye on the charts as they develop.
Okay we got a triangle pattern forming and adamstgBit thinks it will break upward. At this time I am not convinced.
since Adam's drunken stoned lol-athon I can say I would not listen to a single prediction from him. Post count and moderator status do not a trader make.

oh but Adam, I do love your good vibes and random humour and I wouldn't change that for all the accurate TA in the world

well...last time adam got hammered predictions were really good Cheesy

its going down!  i haven't been watching the action closely this week ...but i have a feeling hitting the buy btn will be a good move very soon, place your risky bids NOW!   Grin


I'm afraid to go to sleep...  I don't want to miss buying at the bottom!

you have till monday night to buy
the bid filled on tuesday morning are going to be prime time winners.
place bids now and hope they fill while you sleep and trust me, i've been doing this longer then most.  Tongue
I'm short and will stay that way till we hit bottom But I'm a 1337Pro, so  I trade Bi-monthly....

 Cool
1074  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Hardcore on: June 10, 2013, 11:23:14 PM
Your mother is my fu...copulation buddy.  Cheesy

seems i hit some weak spot there Wink
1075  Economy / Speculation / Re: Wall Observer - MtGoxUSD wall movement tracker - Hardcore on: June 10, 2013, 11:04:53 PM
lol

So it's an indicator as to what will NOT happen Smiley

Pretty much so. You'll make a fortune taking trades opposite to my predictions Cheesy

The market is so small, I think it can probably be said of a lot of ppl here. TA seems very much useless, news could be a factor, but then you have the whales or anyone with a stash needing to cash out and it's the circus....

I think I will henceforth use a dartboard to make predictions. I'll probably be as accurate as the next man... Grin

I would recommend a monkey as trading buddy.

The thing that I'm beginning to realize is, there may already be so much emotional and financial investment in Bitcoin that it's at a network effect/brand awareness tipping point so that even if there is a competitor that is technically superior, it may not substract from its value. MP3 for example is inferior to other compression algorithms, yet it's still what pretty much everyone uses because everyone uses it. And, if Bitcoin is to be displaced, it can take a long time to push it off its throne.

I'm only a little disappointed so far in that I only see work in the intermediaries (coinbase), nothing really revolutionary like Silk Road. Something that makes use of its properties that conventional currency cannot provide. While enforced monetary scarcity is the main thing going for Bitcoin, I would like to see more "killer apps" providing an underlying value in order to distinguish it more clearly from xyz scamcoins.

Sure, being able to buy gift cards for Burger King with Bitcoins in the US is nice. But let's not kid ourselves, it's only convenient if you already posess Bitcoins and happen to run out of USD. An unlikely scenario.

its more than emotional. its logical.  that's the beauty of the mathematics.

yes, everyone involved in Bitcoin has a vested interest in maintaining the system.  that's a strong feature.  if any altchain arises that depends on hashing and threatens Bitcoin, i guarantee you'll see guys like BitcoinExpress attack them.  what its gonna take is some system way different than cryptocurrency to displace Bitcoin.

i'm never sure what ppl mean when they say killer apps.  personally, this thing with Gyft card is huge.  we now have an instant conversion mechanism right on our Androids which allows one to preserve the value of their money right up to the point of buying something for fiat.  this is almost as good as a Bitcoin credit card just b/c its in digitized form.  once we get a fully functional cc for Android and iPhone its to the moon.

Smiley just posted this thought on wallobserver thread and it kind of suited to your comment in the longterm sense.
(you have to feed your dreams being in this game)

I'm not sure if amazon hops onto the train.
they already sell amazoncoins (http://www.amazon.com/gp/feature.html?ie=UTF8&docId=1001166401)
but perhaps that's just their strategy to get more dependendance of consumers .
i also read somewhere about future Applecoin for itunes.
this reaction to the whole coin-idea is just logical natural adaption in favor of big companies.
they still want to have advantages for gain in profit, it's like interest-free credit for them.

one possible integration of btc is perhaps someday you can trade it for the different coins of the big companies.
this would mean mass adoption and btc taking the role of a goldstandard for individual virtual currencies.

that is just one very bullish prediction for things to come
there are plenty of others

...interesting times we live in...

pmed friedcat.
i really didn't want this to become something big.
the mentioned connections just twisted my mind a bit
we will see how things turnout...

no ranting please, i wanted to take  the whole case low because i just saw a strange coincidence.
i don't want to discredit an honest seller in any way so that he has disadvantages from that.
there is no evidence right now that somethings wrong

seller pmed me some minutes ago and i will close my thread with an excuse when auction is succesful.
 until then nobody should start a hassle

 

you had the right idea ,

anyway it's not a "rant", where is it in his posting history where he got the asciiminer shares in the first place? they were originally distributed by auction, there would be a post by him buying it... but there's not... because his account is only a few weeks old, and all these other ones too, they are his "sock puupets", fake to make him look legitimate.

If friedcat comes into this thread and verfies that he owns these shares, I will get a pair of dirty underwear, cut it up and eat it and make a video of it and post it here.

his first post is him asking what an offline wallet is and a few weeks later hes seelling moneypaks and asciiminer shares, yeah sure!  90% of these guys with accounts under 1 month old are scammers

i'm a newbie to auctions and I just became quite cautious after reading about many scams on the forum.
one can buy shares in other ways than just on this forum...let's wait until we have feedback from the buyers, more info from seller or friedcat.
