So, like the subject says, I'm new here.  I have a few questions if you all don't mind.
Can somebody point me in the direction of a trading platform for bitcoins?  Something I can use to place orders without having to go to
Mt. Gox every time I want to place an order oh and trailing stops and stop limit order functions would be nice Cheesy.  Do such things exist?
I don't know what to do with the stuff on the trade api page on Mt. Gox.
Also, do Bitcoin exchanges have MMs (market makers)?  Bitcoins (bitcoin = penny stock) are extremely volatile.  
I do think however, that with the liquidation of a couple portfolios and some finesse, I might be able to help out a little.
It is vital for a "currency" to be stable.  
And as a small business owner, It is nearly impossible for everyday business' that might be interested to take that leap.  
Though, I am interested!!! Cheesy Which is why I'm here Cheesy  If I can reduce the risk to my business, I'll have no quarrels accepting bitcoins Cheesy

I can't wait to delve into this further.  Have a good night everybody.

According to NIST and ECRYPT II, the cryptographic algorithms used in Bitcoin are expected to be strong until at least 2030. (After that, it will not be too difficult to transition to different algorithms.)

Welcome. Stability seems to be a pipe dream right about now, but who knows.

If I were a business accepting BTC I feel I would need to adjust the price daily/hourly like gold traders do.

Feel like investing in a Miner?:

I'm actually in the process of building just such a platform; due to the same pain points you're having with trying to actually trade via web browser (it's not fun to say the least  Wink )

I'll have a github link up within this next week if anyone's interested in helping out.
