I still don't understand that dump. We were heading for 150.
Don't try to understand it. Just children playin' with their daddy's money. Prepare for bear tears soon.

HAHAHA! ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I don't see why you're laughing, anyone who sold can now buy more BTC from the proceeds of their sale. What's to laugh about ? I sold all of mine at $162 and they're now considerably cheaper so that would be a reasonable gain for me.

You really see so many trades to lag the engine? I see a ridiculous amount of trades. If that lags their engine... Wow.

I think $137.5 will likely hold. If not, it is just more coins to the strong hands, and the runup will be that faster..
The cup is now quite tilted to the downside. Expect immediate bounce to about $141.

Has anyone tried to analyze what these short down moves are trying to accomplish? It does not seem to be to just suppress price as it always bounces back fairly quickly. What is the underlying motive then? Just trying to learn.

Many bought in anticipation of a rally on Tuesday which never came hence the selling pressure.

Either profit-taking - which is the case for buyers after April 12, or stop loss - which is the case for buyers above current prices. In the first case, the motive is to realize a gain in dollars. In the second case the motive is to prevent further losses. I do not impute a manipulation motive where greed and fear are sufficient.

I'm skeptical that a 5k market order to sell is the best way to get the most money for your 5k coins. It's also odd to see fairly large asks walls pop up right at the bottom of the drop.

Agreed, I asked that question some days ago. There appears to be a significant amount of large-order trading that is sub-optimal, in that certain alternative tactics may be better: a limit order lets the other side come to you with no slippage, or a big order should be sliced up and targeted at select counter offers over a period of time - and program trading can automate that too.
