A crash on the scale of the 2011 crash would only ever be possible if major exchanges/institutions were hacked. If we have a crash, BTC may lose half or 75% of its value tops, and then slowly creep back up past the current paradigm. The media craze following the price rise is causing a ton of widespread adoption that is just in its infancy. The amount of strong hands is not going anywhere, there's already too much BTC-related investment that takes waaaay more to to be reversed than a simple panic.

Gotta be careful with this one, though, if you're using it as an alarm clock! I set it to alert me overnight if the price went over $140 (yesterday's high) or under 60 (around yesterday's low) and for whatever reason, bitcoin-tools.de got a quick blip up to 300 and it started mooing loudly and would've woken me up (even though the actual price on Mt. Gox was only hovering around 100).

Plus, turns out it didn't go off for me today when the price dropped below 60 a little after noon today, but again had a false positive moo for 10 seconds thinking the price went over 140 a little bit ago.

Sorry for the problems with the bitcoin-tools.de...
The problem here is, that the values are received from Mt.Gox-Ticker and during last days it wasn´t very useful as source for such values...
As you may know they had several problems with their Servers as it was being under attack. Even the "big players" in market like Clark Moody or Bitcoincharts had sometimes no data.
I even have seen that the ticker some times delivered not the right values during last days.
The 10 Seconds-Delay is also based on Mt.Gox-Ticker as it´s not allowed to pull more often then 10 Seconds. They allready banned one of mine server for trying it more often.

www.Bitcoin-Tools.de - Price Alert & Calculator [OUTDATED!]
A little tool to keep you informed or wake you up, if Mt.Gox reaches a defined price level and a calculator to convert  BTC or USD based on live Prices. It´s not working any more, because of Mt.Gox... but it was fun to code that time... keeping this link just for reminding... Thanks to everyone for donations done that time!

Thanks for the response. Is there a way to add a feature that disregards large, transient spikes? In other words, provide a way to not throw the alarm until it stays above or below said value for more than 30 seconds (three samples)? Maybe make this sample value user configurable?  This would help reduce false positives because the wrong values in my case didn't tend to stay up for much longer than a sample or two.

Until bitcoin-tools.de can send SMS, it isn't what he mentioned, hint, hint.

Btw, you should pull up www.bitcoin-tools.de in Internet Explorer -- it shows up as super small.

I'm curious - I want to build something that would allow me to set up flexible conditions to alert and also to trade. And since I'm going to build it anyway, if there's enough demand, I'd make it into a service. The question is, how much would you pay for such a service?

Fredwu,

The btcprice.info site offers conditional alerts on % change, for FREE.

We are expanding to add email, SMS to more countries, and more custom conditions (code is in beta testing and planned for launch next week)

The site will remain free.

Bitcoin is skyrocketing. I would hope the crash is not going to come but it seems there is a spiral of greed and it will continue until the point where greed turns to fear and fear turn to panic.

The bubble could crash while I sleep and there is nothing that would slow a Bitcoin crash.

Do you have any idea to prevent this scenario?

I am thinking to develop a Bitcoin price alert that will send SMS to a mobile phone if the price fall to a certain limit.

Does that sound a good idea?
