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

I see this mistake a lot -- confusing adoption with first encounter. We are at the early majority for people learning about the existence of bitcoin, but the very very very very early adopter stage as useful technology.

ya thats what i'm thinking.

Yes, adoption is what will really bring the price up not awareness and for that we need for bitcoin to be a success as a technology and not just as a toy for speculators.

i just sold (@530€)

so far, every time i bought or sold, it was wrong
and the price went opposite then expected

so you: buy!

Bitcoin is being remarkably forgiving today -- a beautifully formed crash and subsequent bull trap peak, on lower volume. Get off at this station for some light refreshments before the moon shot. The next station is way back, and on fire.

It's approaching an ATH on Bitstamp with a tonne of buy orders behind it and you're calling this a bull trap??

If you think this is a healthy precursor to a bull run, be my guest, but don't say I didn't warn you.

In fact the tape has been painted all the way up. Just go with the flow. There's no exuberance here, just a dream of what might have been.

I am pretty sure the bears are completely blind to the order books . . .   Bid sums are at an ATH.   34.4 mil on Gox and 14 mil on Stamp!   Every time I check there is another mil or two added.   The new money from the exposure Monday has not even made it to the exchanges yet.   Many of the twitchy sellers sold already.   We need the bears though, so don't discourage them.   Someone has to sell, or this will get real interesting real quick.   So, this is definitely a bull trap, sell now before its too late and we drop back below $100

Where are you finding readable and up-to-date bid sums, please?

I think one could pick out several examples like this from the 1 month graph. They were merely corrections. Ask me on Tuesday and I would have said the price was going to be $300 - $400. But the recovery has been so robust and so fast, it's hard to not just see the last couple of days as a correction as opposed to the beginning of a downtrend.

I do consider myself warned however

Check http://blockchained.com/ , there is ATH amount of fiat on gox at 35MUSD. Only about 24MUSD was there during the April peak. So these money are pretty sure to be new money, not stucked goxbux

At the same time, only 27.5kXBT is for sale. Dividing 35M with 27.5k you have 1273USD/XBT

After a big bout of selling at record highs, there's a record sum of USD on gox books? That doesn't sound like new money to me.

Uh, that money had to come from somewhere . . .   Even if all the money on the order book is from sold bitcoins, which it is of course not, the bitcoins that were sold had to be bought by someone with new money . . .   Slightly simplified, but you get the idea.   Do people even think before they say things these days?

Its funny how the ATH is stated on the books as far as funds go... How many people do you think sold in this range and how much money was made and subsequently re-bidded?  5 million dollars more appeared after some decided to sell.  So where do you think the money went from the coins sold?  Sure some may be tied up in postponed wire transfers and some more re-bought.  Some just leave it sitting in their accounts and the rest... well, I feel its pretty confident to say its sitting right there on the order books.  Almost 14,000 coins dropped continuously in a row in an hour long period after the all time high means atleast 11,200,000$ .. order book was at 25 million before hand and now is around 34 million.  The numbers make sense well anyway.. to follow the consensus.. we're off to Alpha Centari, but don't worry we'll come back to visit.
