Am I right that the Bitstamp ask walls have not been tested? It is tough to believe that there are 3000 coins to 600.
Edit: looks like we tested yesterday.

The last 2-3 times we got near 600$ 1-2000 BTC have been pulled and put to ~620$ temporary . Edit: Next 48h will be interesting! Lololololololol

If it wasn't so boring, the last 9 days on the daily chart would be hilarious: 9 doji (or near doji) in a row.
That should be a signal of market indecision. If we are being held at this range so someone big can stock up on coins, why is it taking so long?

Ive mentioned it a couple of times on the forum already today, but I have it through very good sources that the majority of large miner coins that are being sold are being sold off exchange for a point or two premium by hedge funds.
A large miner recently confirmed that he had had several calls put into him by hedge funds looking to buy every coin he had. If they are tracking him down, their tracking others down as well. I think this is one of the reason selling has practically dried up relative to what it used to be. Big money is desperate not to have the price run up.
I have been dwelling on this analysis from Windic and of course it makes sense. If the miners go to market with the current volume, then they won't get the price they might from off exchange sales. But with these sellers and the corresponding buyers both off-market, then volume dries up. It also means the price is far more easy to manipulate by dumping a few every time it looks like creeping up and buying them back once the rise has been stopped. This will only change if off-market demand exceeds supply. But at first miners will just have more bidders and may just auction at higher rates, but still off-market. The only way this situation changes will be if the large off-market buyers see the premium asked by miners as excessive and break ranks. And these large buyers are not so stupid. So right now we stay in this equilibrium - large miners will not change it, they get guaranteed sales at market or slightly over and predictable, optimised cashflow. Miners not selling off-market are supplying about what the market wants right now, hence (relative) stability. So... what needs to change? Probably the point where it becomes inevitable that it WILL change. At this point miners may hold and ask a premium - large buyers see the cosy arrangement is not going to last and then they start to break ranks and just land grab on-market. So breakouts are being stamped on - it is inevitable it MUST be what is happening. Once it looks like this amazing accumulation 'party' is over, the shit will hit the fan. The longer it lasts the faster it will turn. And events, of course 'events' can be the calalyst for someone to blink. And so it will begin - we will have our choo choos again.

I am all fine and dandy with that analysis... yet it seems that the time-line and stability of this arrangement remains unclear. This arrangement could continue for days or maybe even up to 4-6 months. .. let's say 4-6 months of about $2million per day in BTC being bought off line (3,600 x $600) That is only about $60million per month, and it remains unclear for how many months that will be a sufficient supply for accumulators.

I think we survived the weekend pretty well. The run-up on sunday was great, but didn't last long and we're back at square 1. But there's been no monday dump and we didn't break down. Gotta see the positive things here, I'm an optimist! Your predictions???

What does that mean, 9 doji? Could you explain that in laymans words? I'm really no expert in TA or chart theory, but am interested to learn. And what does that mean for the price or the market sentiment in the future???

So you think we need to shake out some longs first, or do you think we simply need to get the movement going again? I try to understand why people feel the need for another crash before a new rallye can emerge!

Wow, yeah.. That would surely spark a decision I guess.. But I don't know if I could handle that, I'd be freaking out completely. But I want to stay in Bitcoin, I don't want to play it safe or try to daytrade the market (because I'd fail ) What can I do to ease my mind a bit?

What can I do to ease my mind a bit? Remember that btc prices rise an average of 0.59% per day. This ranging is abnormal, and will eventually end.

We need new people to get in, that's all.

I try to understand why people feel the need for another crash before a new rallye can emerge! This is a weird logic that people start saying everytime the price is stuck for a while. It's based on nothing really.

As mining difficulty changes things must change in the end - but when? Hmm...
