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

[Killerpotleaf]

Maybe testing 1 more time the $820 again ore it shoots up to around $950-$1000.

We could be getting faked out, but the pressure seems to continue to be upwards...

On another related topic, I am still getting a bit anxious about Stamp... It's been down for me for about 6 hours.. maybe a little more...

I know others have access and trading is still being done, but it is strange and I wonder how wide scope is the outage because the price still seems to continue upwards in spite of some folks, including yours truly, being closed out from trading on there for several hours.

it can take a while for the new DNS name thing to propagate,

the site is up for me.

Actually when I was starting to get my panties into a twist (even though I don't wear such), I noticed that I could get the site to come up on my phone.

So whatever, I dickered around a bit, including restarting my computer, and then it was working.

It could have been a coincidence that it just came up at the same time that I restarted my computer, because I have three computers, and the site was not working on any of the three computers until in the past 10 minutes when I started dickering around a bit more.

PM me you password ill put in trades for you 

I could see that working out quite well.   

First, I would send you 20 pages of instruction regarding BTC trading strategies, and then I would get assurances that you are going to follow those basic BTC trading principles. 

You would tell me that you understand the instructions completely and that you will follow the their true intent and meaning.

Then a few hours later (or maybe a couple days later) I would ask.  What happened with the 14.68294002 bitcoins that were in my account, and the $1,476.41?

You would proclaim that you were in the spirit of the whole instructions thingie majigie, and that you were on a kind of karma roll with experimenting including variation of my ideas.. that should have worked out perfectly to cause a lot of praise from me and to multiply my BTC by 32,000%.

I would then say.. "what the fuck happened then because That makes absolutely no sense?"

You would respond that what you were saying makes a lot of sense, and I just need to be able to think differently about what is possible.  hahahaha

Yeah.. You are a completely trustworthy psycho, and I would trust you 1,000% with my private keys because I have known you for nearly three years under two crazy-ass screen personalities.

hhahahahahahha   


Actually, I could probably trust you more than some peeps that I know IRL....         

I probably wouldn't of made you any money... but i would have adjust your bids and asks.

all in, with a stop loss @ 901.5 and take profit at @ 1337

Is your offer to supply BTC trading services only open to Bitstamp, or could I use such services for any account that I have?

I know trading can be a lot of work... very time consuming if you attempt to keep track of orders on several accounts, especially if prices are moving a lot. 

I have not opened an account on Kraken, yet..   Any specific advantages to Kraken, besides maybe once in a while arbitrage opportunities?

Not to be a pessimist, but the chart pattern looks eerily similar to the one that formed back in June/July, just before Bitfinex got hacked.

Wouldn't be surprised if some similar shenanigans were being attempted with Stamp or some other major exchange right now, or over the next few weeks...

^{(again, not trying to be a downer... but surprises do happen, hope I'm wrong though)}

I think that I know the feeling... it's like if the market feels like it is going to go up.. and there is a bit of tension in the air that it should be going up.. but with bitcoinlandia, we never know about "surprises" that are in the background.

Right now, I have my BTC portfolio about a bit over allocated on the BTC side. In that regards, I am about 94.5% BTC rather than 93% BTC.... So, yeah, if the price goes down, then I feel a little bit more pressure to hold off on buying and to wait for greater drops (so that I do not run out of fiat), even though the situation could be worse.... We certainly, seem to be in a good situation at the moment (even if the price is lower $900s rather than mid $1,100s)

the suspense is killing me.

That's hilarious how it just broke up after that last post

[eddie13]

lol nice memes..

I was "trading" yesterday like ptsd fomo thinking it was going to go up, then thinking it was going to go down..
In the end I lost like 1% changing my mind too much and said screw it..

The lines on your 1 minute chart already broke.  Big surprise.

That is called history: we've seen too many exchanges exploding along the ride. The most infamous one was Mt.Gox and we all know about that.
But others got "hacked" or forced to die: Bter, Finex, Mintpal, Cryptsy......
We need to be watchful and follow the golden rule: control the keys.

Talking price it seems we are up and running today. Nice

Just changed my DNS servers to custom instead of the ones given by my ISP and having access to bitstamp.net again. If you want to use them, feel yourself invited 

Code:

nameserver 192.71.245.208 #(ns1.it) -- 99.85% uptime
nameserver 178.17.170.67 #(ns1.md) -- 98.24% uptime

Except that on the 30th June a small pump pushed the price up a bit, while the equivalent pump of today failed.

I think that you guys are talking about July/August (and not June/July) because the Bitfinex "hack" happened on August 2.

right?

I am talking about June 30th to July 8th, when critical support was tested. We might test the current critical support later today and probably bounce from it.
When this little pump failed, a number of traders understood the bearish implications and dumped, so the equivalent of the period mentioned above may get truncated.
