Most likely a hack and attempt to drain the hot wallet, IMO. No one bought coins for $10k. In your dreams. This is like when someone sells coins on LBC for 10x the market price. Take it with a grain of salt.

I wonder if shorting was enabled at the time. Shorting at $9700 would have been nice

I don't think anyone would have filled that order.

Bitcoinwisdom consolidates buys and shows the highest buy price. So even if out of the entire order only 0.0001 btc gets bought for $1 it would look like 133 btc got bought at $10k.

Ok, I understand the part about consolidating the bids. But under what real scenario would there ever a mBTC trade that goes for 1$?

It's Monday 11:00 am in China and Huobi again has very low volume, like last Monday Jun/30.
That time, the lull was suddenly followed by a big rally at 13:00 (05:00 UTC).
Will it happen again this Monday?

I expect things to pick up at least a little tomorrow....*fingers crossed*

[JorgeStolfi]

Hm, could it be that... the Chinese TV started showing some Wold Cup soccer game at 10:30 am local time (02:30 UTC)?

EDIT: if that is true, expect things to start moving again at 04:15 UTC.

It's feeling increasingly bullish. Looking at the reverse head and shoulders pattern on the chart you would expect resistance at around $650, but if the $640 wall is pulled there will be little resistance. If we go past $650 it will be a strong buy signal imo.

There we are... it took a bit longer than predicted: 4:27 UTC, rather than 04:15.  Perhaps the game went on to the tie-breaking extension?

Anyway, by that time it was lunchtime (12:27 local).  So the volume will probably pick up for good around 05:30, like last Monday.

So BitchicksHusband was in Vegas this weekend (went to the UFC fight with his brother) and his 70 year old aunt (who lives in Vegas and he stayed at her house) asked to buy several thousand in Bitcoin!  Then he took her to lunch today at The D and used the Bitcoin ATM there.  Strange things are happening I must say.

We're still on the uptrend imo.

Agreed. I'm seeing a Bollinger Band squeeze coming -- we are in a tight, tight range, and all signs point to a bullish continuation on all exchanges. I think we'll see a big move in the next day or two.

Dat low volume right now  

Chinese must have waken up too late today
