It's interesting to see how people insist on pissing their own pants in dumb attempts at trying to keep warm.
If you want a certain price for a certain volume then let it build so you can get it. Otherwise you're basically shooting yourself in the foot.
Why do you assume everyone has your exact strategy and position? It's just as valid to dump, cause a panic, and re-accumulate later. Not everyone is long bitcoin at the same price as you. That's why it's called "trading."
Some of the bitcoin early adopters are perfectly cavalier about losing hundreds of thousands of dollars they could have otherwise had and diversified with. It's nice to be a multi-millionaire before getting lucky in bitcoin. Others may not have that luxury -- we're in the middle of a rough economic time, and an extra half million dollars may be the difference between having a bad time and clear sailing for many people.
Satoshi is worth over 10 million dollars at the current "buy buy buy it'll go to the moon" sale price.
All it takes is one early adopter to figure out that taking a huge dump on the market means they can wind up with MORE dollars and MORE coins than when they started. And a lower difficulty to mine more. And a purge of speculators.
