Haha still very early but I'd love to see it hold. $50 would have very strong support going forward if it managed to stop this trend.

It's a brave call. May be a false bottom (fnarr!).

A bottom is a great long-term entry point (fnarr-fnarr!)

Apologies to non-Viz readers.

That is about as low as can go, IMHO

I said a few weeks back when it was $220+ that it was gonna crash hard and level out around $50usd

I think $50 is an honest amt per btc right now. Not too high, Not too low. I wonder what caused this last major spike, was it manipulation or extreme excitement? I heard a massive amt of wallets from new users were created in these last few weeks.

In My Humble Honest Opinion ,  I think it will start to bounce back soon.

I tried to fund my mtgox account to buy some while they are low and it is still stuck in no-where land. Its quite disappointing watching the market rise when I know i could have had a stake in it.

BitInstant is, well, instant. I've used it before, and it couldn't have been more instant.

Also, I dumped $200 into Bitcoins at $83.5. I've been buying low and selling high as the price has been decreasing, and made over a full Bitcoin in profit. I'm ready for it to bounce, but I think it'll hang around $50 to $70 for another 5 to 7 days while the last of the sellers sell and and everyone else starts buying. This is solely a guess though; I know almost nothing about economics.

Have to love the fact though that GOX is able to handle all this traffic now.
I mean 637,359 BTC Traded in the last 24.
Hell a week ago they could not even process 200,000 in a 24hour period without crashing.

I'm not sure that the BTC volume traded is actually a good indicator of the trade volume that Gox is handling.  When the exchange rate was higher, fewer BTC were traded, but that doesn't mean that there were fewer transcations.  From an order handling perspective, the server has a much harder problem processing and matching 100 orders for .01 BTC than it does one order for 1 BTC.

Correct, MtGox can handle around 35-37 trades per second on current hardware. Once they get their new servers with the database on fast disks, this should go up to thousands. Either their exchange software is really terrible, or they have very slow/few disks at the moment for a db server
