If any whales were@play on the exchanges in the last time, then they were those who built up those buy walls you were sellin into. They reserved the "market buy" option as behavior for the fishies in the next months.

No, you better not say (er, observe and be right about) that, lest you want a bunch of people on this thread jumping down your throat and calling you a troll.

This looks like it might get nasty again. But... I still say buy! Bulltrap will get bigger first.

I think the market is really trading different from how it used to be. Maybe a certain class of traders packed their bags and left after the MtGox fraud? It just seems that there's no more real weight (as in volume and velocity) behind bounces after a sell-off. I'd love to see some of that come back..

Also consider that many of those traders had to walk away *without* their bags. It wasn't Bitcoins fault but if I had been Goxxed, I might shy away from Bitcoin for the taste it left in my mouth.

If I may posit another plausible theory:

I think it's a hell of a lot easier to create a bubble on a single exchange that had something like 80% of the trading market, than the 15+ exchanges we have worldwide today.  Especially since a large number of those whale traders back then were concentrated on Mt Gox, and were probably colluding and working together to push the price up (Some of them reading this thread right now, hehe).  Couple that with god knows what insider trading shenanigans and bots that Karpeles was running on that abomination of an exchange (to fake demand), likely trying hard to replace all the lost/stolen bitcoin, and China going bananas, and I think you have a perfect storm.

Would be much harder to recreate the same today.  Especially with all the shorting and arbitrage, that didn't exist back in fall of 2013.

No bulltrap, just tons of microtrading oscillating the price. I wouldn´t surprise for a inminent big move up or down, however

Hi guys! This is my first post here. I have been reading this thread for some time now. I am not a day trader, so the stuff you write here is not relevant to me. But... I just have to read your shit anyway. I like the humor & action, he he. So it is relevant to me. Stupid me.... ;-)

That's why I selected this place to publish a simple mathematical model of how Bitcoin price can evolve over time. Don't kill me because the numbers in my formula are off. Just adjust & use. Kill me because the formula is wrong, he he ;-)

I´m almost 100% sure that all of those smallish investors that sold their Bitcoins on Stamp or China in the last weeks will withdraw their money and invest it in e.g. U.S.  bonds. Therefore the value of BTC will probably go near 0-1$
