Im seriously thinking about cashing out and then rebuying with the bleeding stops. I truly believe it will go at least 50 dollars lower than it is now, but most of the time I have done that in the past, i got burned, glad i only sold a tiny bit and not the whole ball of wax... My wife told me to just leave them in cold storage, its not like I have a ton, but what i have now could put a nice down payment on a house or buy a very nice luxury car... Ive already lost 20k or so on paper the last couple days, I just dont have the blood pressure to take this..
But, like Ive said before, Im in it for the long haul and need to remember that im betting on the future years down the road, not weeks or months.. Ill probably just hold, and ill come back here crying saying I should have sold... If I sold and it it dive, I would for sure buy back in.... but fuck it.. Ill just hodl....
You only lose money if you sell at a loss. You don't need either a new car or a new house. If you have that many coins you also probably make enough money to live on and don't have any reason or need to sell at all. Just put them in cold storage and leave them there. Again the 20k loss over the past two days is only in your head if you were not planning to sell.

People really want to test those bids in the $450-$480 range on BFX..
If real, I cant see a new bottom forming within the next 3 weeks - 2 months. If fake, then continue on to $350.
If its real and the bids get taken... well, uh. Thats really bad.
If we go below the 400, there will be no technical support to test before the 150's from last year. Yes, I want buy some cheap coins, but I doubt we can survive sub-400 break for longer than some days without Bitcoin being seriously damaged. Hope we bottom at the 400's. This is what people here fail to understand. They just think going down, preferably to 100, is a good thing because they can buy cheap coins. They fail to see that this thing won't just magically bounce back forever after every crash. There comes a time where people just say enough is enough and move on. I actually have a feeling that this is already happening on a small level at this moment. If it's up to these idiot traders we drop back to 100 every 3 months. While ignoring it will totally damage the Bitcoin infrastructure and economy. But their greed is infinite. I keep saying it. You've had many, many years to buy cheap coins. Hoping a whole economy crashes just so you can buy a few coins (probably worthless by then) is just amazingly ignorant.

Never realised how thinly traded this is.
You could move bitfinex and bitstamp up by $50 each with $2 million!!

WARNING that Bitcoinity doesn't show even 10% of the Bitstamp order book, and hasn't done in months. Sometimes the book looks completely flat in some direction but when you look at the official page there are some decent walls instead.

Perhaps most exchanges are not on exchanges.

Perhaps most exchanges are not on exchanges. No shit sherlock. People still use the "official" rate from the exchanges though and it'd be easy as fuck to manipulate those prices with a few million $

Why people care so much about Bitfinex? They don't have volume like the chinese, or even like Bitstamp, and I guess they don't even have a trollbox, like btc-e

The chinese exchanges are irrelevant too, it's bots trading with each other, it's too hard to get money on a chinese exchange now. The chinese are more or less out of bitcoin for now.

Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't. Don't rely on it for trading! (I didn't realise this a couple of months ago ... and it cost me.)

Bots are people, too! No, the Chinese are not "out of bitcoin" yet. They may be getting out a bit now, and that may be why the price had a tiny correction over the last week, which you may have noticed. When the Chinese will really get out of bitcoin, the price will probably drop to 100$ or less.
