Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

[HairyMaclairy]

Has anyone used a credit card to deposit to Bitstamp?   Can you get the $5k limit increased?


Please note I am asking for speed of moving fiat not to buy on credit....

[selffish]

i mean the price of 1 unit. Is it fixed till expire date of contract or is it like the bitcoin chart.

Ahh, ... its variable, the "last price" is the price the last contract traded at.
If you look at the link now you can see the Jan 2018 has dropped (currently $19460)

thx for info. that was what i mean

Can someone tell me anything about UK tax on withdrawals? I just took out 20k give or take do I need to fill out a self assessment form? The first googling I've read so far is this https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/revenue-and-customs-brief-9-2014-bitcoin-and-other-cryptocurrencies/revenue-and-customs-brief-9-2014-bitcoin-and-other-cryptocurrencies which says it isn't taxed? But it is an older document and I'm sure I've seen people mention it needs to be?

As far as I'm aware the usual capital gains taxes need to be paid.

I'm still waiting on my gox withdrawal. That chart brings back bad memories.

Brings back memories of last week, 4 straight days of whales and bears fighting.

I think you're a noob and you're new it's normal for bitcoin and it's not crash

This is a crash:

I had never seen anything like it.  Probably a good thing everything was jammed up and all you could do was watch

I traded it on btce, using gox as a lead. btce always worked flawlessly. It was extremely profitable.

Want to know something funny? Besides a couple BTC I had bought some time before via localbitcoins, my first bank transfer to Bitstamp delayed more than a week and arrived when the price was already over 200+. I bought anyways. I franctically traded the crash traying to "arbitrage" between bitstamp and mtgox and reduce my average price... without NOT really knowing what I was doing. It was horrible but at the same time somewhat incredibly exciting.

What a horrible day/night I "chose" for my first day in trading Bitcoin lol

After that shit... everything onwards has been a piece of cake

That was the spirit back in the days

They were probably the same ones making the red candles after a good flash profit

December is epic : less than 15 days = 2x the value.

Lots of salt in the comments. This is why I refuse to discuss it with normal people.

Both stocks and bitcoin are nothing more than crowd sourced pump and dumps so the degree of trust is entirely determined by personal investment.  If anything, that article is kind of a warning sign that much of the retail investor is already in on bitcoin leaving not as many greater fools to buy higher.

Actually you are dead wrong. The stock market and the Bitcoin market are nothing alike. Equities are designed, structured and launched to enrich only the 1% on day 0. The Bitcoin market is the closest that mankind has had to a "free market" in hundreds of years.

You need to do some research before you speak..

As usual, real world will sit somewhere in the middle. And doing research only to have your own convictions and beliefs confirmed is not really research, what I suspect Roach being good at... .

Volume around $50 was insane. The resistance at this price will now be over 9000, or something.

 


I think bitcoin/USD price will touch at $25500 and come back to 23000 and again it will start it journey toward up now hanging around at $19600
