It's definitely not a crash, just wait until after the weekend. Or sell and bring the price down so I can buy more.  |

Agreed mate - Can anyone introduce me to new BTC trading sites ? I always gotta do cash deposits at a bank ( pay 8 points on the deposit too ) .... I live in AUS. I cannot trade it real time when banks are closed. I did panic slightly but woulda loved to purchase at 54AUD where it was at. THanks....

It is not a crash. It is a bear spanking.

Yeah.. if you really think earlier today was a "crash", then I suggest you get out of BTC immediately. Or just use them for currency and not as investment assets.

I am kinda hoping for little crash (to 30 USD/BTC or below), so I can buy cheap coins (I really screwed up when they were for 2 bucks each, I bought few at price about 8 usd/btc)

I remember the days when I'd stress about buying BTC @ $12.50, thinking "Damn, that's expensive." Who knows what I'll be saying in a few months time, having not bought any since $40... |

I saw this as a great time to buy some discounted Bitcoin. I just spent all my spare money buying bitcoin a few days ago so I wasn't able to take advantage to get more today. As far as day trading, I tried it earlier this month when I thought it was at a temp peak but it didn't go back down as far as I hoped. The difference between my sell price and my re-buy price wasn't big enough to cover the service fees. I am still up overall in terms of how much I have invested and how much it is currently worth, but I would have made more money if I had just held onto it. Even though you can see the top 20 buy and sell orders pending on the exchange I use, it is still difficult to predict if there is going to be a valley big enough to justify selling and rebuying. However, it is a good idea to time your new buys. There are always these little dips every day that if you are patient enough you can take advantage of.

It's probably just an illegal trick traders use called a "wash trade"
You sell hard to flush people out of their positions and buy back once you reach a target price.
As this exchange in unregulated expect a lot of trader tricks as hedge funds move in.

I didn't think I'd ever get another chance to buy coins in the $60s, loving it. I hope it "crashes" again. Sell everyone, sell! Bitcoins are worthless!!! The bubble is about to burst!! Sell!!!!!!!!!!!!  |

I don't think it's right to call it free, they took risks in trading but it paid of in the end, lucky and smart I would say.. |

o man, there is nothing free. The risk of losing is so high i only put small amount of savings for "just in case" scenario. But feel free to put it all in if you feel gambling |

There have been a few of these "crashes" over the last few weeks. The only one that had any explanation that I'm aware of was the blockchain fork, and even that only lasted a few minutes. The price seems to drop radically then rebound just as radically. It IS a great buying opportunity, except that when volumes get high like that, mtgox gets so laggy I've found it's almost impossible to sell and buy back again at a lower price before all the fun is over. You really need to set up some bids at lower prices in advance and then hope the price drops.
