bitstamp (almost) run up to $400

[wannasurf]

Bitstamp rocks, they confirmed my deposit in under 24 hours (from US). For anybody looking for a marketplace I highly recommend them.

For perverse fun, I jumped into that (potentially historic) run up to $400 but as I suspected it fell back. As the price keeps going up, worrying about a few dollars in the market timing isn't worth it, it's < 1% of the price. I had bought some on one of the earlier dips by good karma, so I figured just blast away!

i've been buying bitcoin from btcquick, but im definitely gonna try the bank transfer to bitstamp soon

Hmmm. Maybe that was foolish of me. Bitstamp dropped to $385 now. On its way back to $300...?  ;-O

In trading near the $400 barrier I did notice a big wall right at 400, thousands of coins. But people kept jumping in offers at 394, 395, 396. It makes me wonder what the situation will look like at the $1000 barrier (next April seems to be the consensus from the log graphs in other threads), since a whole bunch of the old timers I've read saying things like, "boy I'm sure gonna cash out at $1000".

The smart buy low and sell high.
Never buy in a rally.

And never sell all BTC!
I allways buy when the price falls (every 20$) and sell, when the price rises (20$ step).

Or you could buy and hold.

PS:
Don't expect 1000$ so soon.

And allways grab coins in a crash and never panic sell.

Hey Mirsad,
Two questions for you:
1) What exchange do you use to buy your Bitcoins?
2) Also when do you expect the price to fall below 300 in upcoming quarter ?

[Mirsad]

I don't expect the price to fall below 300$ in the next few weeks.
But I'm prepared (with more fiat) if it falls unter 300$.

I'm using GOX for trading and will switch somewhere else if I want ever to cash out.
