Why is bitstamp ($823) now higher than gox ($811) and btc-e ($728)?

[RationalSpeculator]

Are there withdrawal problems at bitstamp now also? Anyone having them?

Or are there problems to send fiat to btc-e now?

Or are the withdrawal problems of gox solved? Anyone can confirm?

Or is there just a flood of fiat to bitstamp?

I don't know, but i try to keep track of this: http://bitcoinity.org/markets/list

maybe a week ago bitstamp had a higher volume than mtgox if I remember correctly. Plus the trade volume all over went down a little, no?

Why shouldn't it?
It's a damn free market!
That's why I exchange euro to usd at 1.29 at a bank and 1.28 at the next one 10 meters away.

Just a lot more fiat at Bitstamp. In theory, Bitstamp should be able to climb to 1,300$, but they will probably follow Gox.

My wildy speculative guess: most of US traders use Bitstamp because is the only exchange allowing steady USD withdrawals, and the US is extremely bullish now because the Senate hearings. The rest of the world just gives zero fucks about what happens in the US.

Just note that Bitstamp price went higher than Gox just after the second Senate hearing.

Excuse me? On Gox's order book you have more than double the amount of fiat compared to Bitstamp's order book.

Compared with the situation a week ago, Bitstamp has a lot more fiat now. That allowed it to climb 120$ higher than the theoretical peak.
