why's  btc-e constantly lower than bitstamp? Harder to get money in? Easier to withdraw fiat? Less stringent KYC procedures?

Much more hassle to get USD in and out compared to other exchanges is my guess. You have to go through some weirdo third party services.

If getting fiat in and out is equally difficult, you wouldn't expect it to affect the price, would you? Unless the methods for withdrawing have benefits like anonymity.

The bots tend to sink everything twice as hard on BTC-e.

400 shorts opened in the last hour.  I guess the price isn't low enough.

What would be dead is the inflated expectations of a few overzealous people. That's all.

So it's greedy if a bitcoiner buys a bitcoin sometime, ANYTIME in 2014, and expects it to more or less retain it's value? Should no one have bought any bitcoins AT ALL in 2014 and held them?

Honestly answer the question.  2014 is nearly over, it's been 10 months.

Maybe not greedy but naive? Bitcoin went up x100 in 2013. Do you expect this to just maintain its value without major corrections?

If you want to retain value short to mid term at least, then Bitcoin is not the asset to do that. Bitcoin is an asset to look for high growth, and with that growth comes the cost of RISK.

Sticky please. First post everyone should read who enters this forum.

this forum can be 'little' bit biased, but it's good to remember also that big win doesnt necessarily mean big risk, risk is situational and it has to be defined case by case, best cases are when risk is low and win probability high, bitcoin has been in past many times in this category

if your average cost of a BTC is less than 400 and if you are too invested and have troubles sleeping at night because of this trend, or if you are afraid and not sure about your strategy, now is your chance to reduce your position better than later at a loss (if the price fall further). 

at the end of the last year and beginning of this year, I said it was a good idea to sell some coins (people who bought around $100-200) and take the profits while you can, and now I am telling you that you can still take some profits.... I am afraid that there is a possibility that many of you will regret not doing so later.

Ah, mmitech. I guess you must be feeling pretty stupid right now, having sold half your stash a couple of months back when a certain person made it clear this was a really bad idea as the only way was up. But no, you wouldn't listen...

[sarcasm] yes, I feel sorry for selling at $6xx  , I beat my self everyday because of it, I could be making a ton of money if I didn't sell and listened to the bunch of perma-trollsbulls that hang around here. [/sarcasm]

Where are JJG and Trolfi? I haven't dropped by here for a while, and it seems so much more peaceful without them. I almost feel like staying.

Oh YES!!!!   you should stay, and that way mmitech has someone who is ready, willing and able to kiss his butt.  That would surely be helpful to our analyses and speculations regarding BTC prices.

your analyses ? BTW where I can read your analyses ?  I didn't come across any analyse or sane post of your yet, all I see is butt-hurt posts and attacking most posters when you disagree, and it just struck me that the guy who cant solve a simple mathematical issues knows how to analyse things !!!

Inching closer to 410. Roughly 860btc to that point. Get your cheap coins.

Of course not. 420 is expensive. There are cheap coins at 350.

[ShroomsKit]

Inching closer to 410. Roughly 860btc to that point. Get your cheap coins.

But i was told at 600 those were cheap coins. And at 500. And at 900. Now you're telling they are cheap at 410? So confusing this.

[oda.krell]

It can be hard sometimes not to feel like a huge bear with all the constant accusations from the rest of the bullish crowd that if you don't believe in $10k by December, you're a retard.

(and then you still have to draw a line between yourself and the actual bear trolls).

I surrender! Bitcoin's volatility is really nothing in comparision what one has to bear in this thread. I quit here, and will search a new, better home - Ryan's Log, Analysis never ends, Speculation Posting Guidelines or whatever. It's too heavy, my head! I need asparine or better some valium.

Are you implying I'm too dramatic?

(I am too dramatic, I guess )

410 is cheaper than 500, 600 and 900. Not sure how simple math can be confusing.

just bought 2.2

going for double figures if it keeps dr00ping

[ShroomsKit]

I'm surprised we haven't seen a 3k wall yet pushing us down. At least 1 positive sign.
That guy might finally be out of coins or is finally happy with the price.

Dan depositting money early this week would've been sweet

Shorts are decreasing as price is decreasing.
The dumps are real panic sellers.

Not even a short squeeze can save us right now.

We don't need any shorts. If we really do go up, bears will buy back, as well. Bears aren't stupid. At least most of them aren't.

But what if this time it's different, and there is no significant bounce?  Suppose sellers just decide to walk away for 2 years?

Isn't buyers buying back what even day traders always expect?  What if they crash a market so hard that people say "Ok I'm done this time."  Then more miner selling, merchant selling, etc.

Then those who buy in without a bounce back will lose their capital to those who wait out longer. If this goes on long enough, it would indeed mean "Bitcoin is dead".

Hint: Bitcoin is not dead. We're trading at $423 per coin.

410 is cheaper than 500, 600 and 900. Not sure how simple math can be confusing.

So at 600 they weren't cheap and i was lied to?
