what big event happened recently?

Is not a big event in my minds that is just the trading is not feeling excited about doing a trading because of the stabilization they feel difficult for getting a profit and then they are pulling their volume in the trading site into their wallet.

Price is just the one hand

Another important hand is that Bitcoin heat is dissipated, since the Bitstamp and Bitfinex cause stolen/hacked occurred, anyone would still hold funds on exchanges?

Nah, I wouldn't hold funds on exchanges since they both have been hacked. You'd have to be nuts to trust them with your money.

[Mieehayii]

flash crash will be arrived in next two weeks, be careful.

can you give me some ref to read and see how and why the price will crashed i just wanted to learn how to avoid big losses regarding inside btc trading, thanks in advance mate.

as I know, someone in oil-exporting countries is going to shake the BTC world, and then support the ETH to the throne.

[Cresciuanto]

People want the price to rise after that they will spend money into it, but they do not know that until they do not put their money into there the price will remain the same as it is, so we people will have to take the start and have to invest as much as possible with that the price will start to increase and we will sell that bought bitcoins at higher price.

yes that is also a reason but i think the actual reason is that confident of the people is not still built up to trade bitcoin above 600$, therefore the price is not crossing 600$ level. i think it is just a psychological barrier and nothing else. if this psychological barrier is cross by the bitcoin then it is not going to stop below 1000$, it will continue rising tell reach to 1000 $ level.

[Superways]

Itis still very good, we cannot say it as low trading volume, but still we can increase its value to promote this currency to all of the traders of different assets, they will love to invest in this currency also and we should have to convince people to buy online things with bitcoin.

[Barbut]

Trading volume is not so high cause of summer vocations, when this summer end we can expect higher trading volume and price rise.
After talking with some expert's about bitcoin trading volume and generally about the price they told me that all this alt coins around taking this volume from bbitcoins, and of price of bitcoin is not so high cause of alt coins.
I'm not an expert, I just wish to ask people from here how much truth is in these words. Is it truth that other altcoins stopping and slowing rise of bitcoins?

[Kevin77]

it is not that low, and it is normal for this to happen because the price is somewhat stable.

you can check the history yourself, whenever price becomes stable like this, the daily trade volume drops because there are less trades happening.

Yeah, it is not that far off the average a couple months before the huge price increase. I think the bitfinex hack may have something to do with this lower volumes but I think it’s just a temporary market slow down. Any upward price surge will make traders stirred up.

But really, the price of bitcoin is just starting to rise after a sharp fall during the Bitfinex saga. This means people are buying once again, so how can you say the volume is low, have you checked every crypto exchange?

The price is stuck in its currently "stable" mode, so I am not sure how you say that the price started with rising.

OP. Volume is just okay, not low at all. The market is just very calm after all the volatility we have seen recently. It's just the usual $10-$20 ups and downs that get the market to move at least a tiny bit on a weekly basis. We just need patience before we get the volatility and high volumes back.

it is stuck but still it positive and everyone is satisfied with that, and we are seeing that the price is tending to rise, so with that everyone is pretty sure that the price of bitcoin will increase more soon

ethereum replaced the throne of bitocin? something interesting 

[gkv9]

Don't worry about the volume, as these are not negative but positive signs that people are not willing to sell below those levels anymore...
It seems that potential buyers have not been taking any steps ahead to buy bitcoins, but lately they will enter the markets back and move it...

[Dudeperfect]

I think it’s usual and such volume is correlated to the price of bitcoin. It’s completely normal because the basic principle of trading is based on demand and supply and hence it works according to that principle.

When there is any scope or analysis shows strong signals that price is going to rise in near future then trade volume decreased from sellers side and increases from buyers side and the trade take place during that period shapes the future price.

[bitcoinisbest]

If trading volume has gone down it means either there are not many buyers expecting prices to fall, or not many sellers as prices expected to move up. So something event may come in next week?

[Shinpako09]

Price movement is very calm. I guess one reason on that is most of them are waiting for the price to increase. Maybe they bought at the current price. They are all waiting thats why trading volume is low imo.

[susila_bai]

It is true that trading volume is low as i think everyone is waiting for the price to move above $800 as expected by them, apart from that i think nowadays lot of altcoins are coming in exchanges so everyone is busy with altcoin trading and earning bitcoins.

those that are waiting for $800 prices are wasting their time. we first need to get to smash through the $600 price level. after that a whole new challange will come towards us. and that's maintaining a price of above $600 levels. it's not as easy as it may seem to some people. then we have to come close to $700 which also is a very difficult thing. too many obstacles.

Obviously after the bitfinex hack everybody is very carefull and doesn`t want

to invest large amounts of bitcoin in trading.

If we have better scam/hack protection all the people will feel more secure and they will invest more in btc.

Even I think that, I think most of the people are waiting for bitcoin to go for big price. Then everybody will sell it out.

That make sense, could be that one of the main factors right now probably.
