Dropped the price nicely.
bitcoinica users probably just crapped their pants. it is movement like that which will cause a liquidation of their orders.

I should have said people who went long instead of shorting btc. So lets say some Bitcoinica users probably just crapped their pants depending on where they bought at.

I don't mind seeing 4 tested again sooner rather than later, it's the day's of stagnation that get on my nerves I would have preferred steady selling into 4's though( to really test it), this will just rattle the market.

Even thinking of going long or short in a market that can be manipulated by around 30,000 USD is a pretty dumb idea.

That didn't suck, that was awesome! Wish I had orders at that rate!
I bought some BTC at 5.10-5.20ish last night i was sitting on and knew I should have sold them when the price failed to break above 5.30. But since it was a small amount of money I decided to let it ride. I should have sold and had a nice opportunity to buy in at 4.50ish if I desired. For others I guess it did not suck ;-) But once again this really does show how some people out there do not give a **** when it comes to selling or buying. They just dump/buy all at once and can nail the market in a significant percentage way.

Time will tell but I had a buy order in at 4.55 so I may have just caught bottom on that drop. Now let's run back to 6 please.

panic selling is when you let it go at any price. Not tease buyers by putting it right above the current bid by a nickel or dime.

No it's not, bear-troll. Panic selling would mean end to the bear market - if this is not yet panic - then we'll need to wait some more for the trend reversal.

A bull in disguise. Wants the price to drop so he can buy cheap coins. Most of the bear-trolls on these forums are the same. I want to buy cheap coins, sure, but I can do without the psychological games. Let's just get to the next rally already...

So do you think this was a 'panic selling' and the bear market is now over or not? If you don't think that it was 'panic selling' (and it looks like that - because you used the world troll to describe someone who suggested this) - then do you think that the trend is going down? Or maybe your theory is that 'panic selling' means that the down trend is going to be continued? But if you believe this - then how do you think it will be reversed? Just a long stagnation and suddenly it goes up? To be honest I don't have my own theory - the hypothesis that the trend reversal needs a 'panic selling' is just something I've read in the forum here But it sounds plausible.

It was not panic selling. Since it happened instantaneously, it was clearly one individual's sale of 20k coins. This individual likely thinks the market has further to fall and wants to buy in lower. That does not imply "panic." Inflammatory words like that are only used to hype fear and convince more bitcoiners to sell so that late-comer-bear-troll can buy low.

Looks like Moonco.in was a scam, allegedly faked an ICE seizure and has taken the coins.
I wonder if that's where the selloff came from.

If they faked the ICE seizure, they did a hell of a great job copying ICE's SSL certificate and private key.

Another bitcoin scam? I'd like to say I'm shocked, but I'm not. It's rather difficult to go to the police (of a foreign country) and claim your bitcoins are missing. Fraudsters are taking advantage of this and have come out to play.

But yeah, seeing the other guy match up the hashes and what not made me think it was legit... but the rest doesn't add up.

I want to buy cheap coins, sure, but I can do without the psychological games. Let's just get to the next rally already... That's exactly why I keep swatting down the permabulls. I want to get through the denial phase and into capitulation already so we can build a base and get into rally mode. With a 5 to 1 margin requirement to short on a brand new exchange there's no practical way of taking advantage of a bear market, I want a raging bull one again! Last month I'd have said $4s would be that point. But with 90% of the community still bullish on bitcoin (estimated from deepbit hashing power) there's no "all is lost" feeling at all, and we're still in the "I'll hold forever if I have to, I'm in this for the long term" part of the denial phase. TL;DR -- I'll get my cheap bitcoins if I still want them, but I really wish for that point to be sooner rather than much, much later.

Speaking as one of these sellers, it's because my orders were filled at a lower price, and I put up sell orders at purchase price + $0.30, hence the insta-sell wall that forms after a big drop. HTH.

Looks like I'm not the only one that does this It does raise the question of just how much new money is flowing into MtGox to buy bitcoins, and how much is recycled into future buys and sells. In the long term that's a negative return game for the market.

So, you are saying that ICE uses a comcast IP? Think again... That's not how they work, when they seize a domain, they point the DNS to one of their servers that shows the jpg with the notice they don't continue to send it to the original IP nor do they even have SSL connection working for seized domains. Try it with the following list of seized domains and tell me where can you see ICE SSL cert or a Comcast IP address... 2009Jersey.com handbagspop.com handbagcom.com getdvdset.com skyergolf.com golfwholesale18.com tieonsale.com boxset4less.com dvdprostore.com boxsetseries.com dvdsetsonline.com dvdorderonline.com cartoon77.com dvdscollection.com dvdcollects.com mygolfwholesale.com oebags.com tbl-sports.com 51607.com stuff-trade.com dvdsuperdeal.com topabuy.com mydreamwatches.com newstylerolex.com ipodnanouk.com louis-vuitton-outlet-store.com bishoe.com merrytimberland.com onsmash.com torrent-finder.com massnike.com timberlandlike.com rmx4u.com usaburberryscarf.com realtimberland.com nibdvd.com throwbackguy.com overbestmall.com icqshoes.com jersey-china.com amoyhy.com coachoutletfactory.com gofactoryoutlet.com 2009jerseys.com burberryoutletshop.com scarfviponsale.com rapgodfathers.com mycollects.com dvdsetcollection.com dvdcollectionsale.com sohob2b.com sohob2c.com scarfonlineshop.com shawls-store.com usaoutlets.net silkscarf-shop.com sunogolf.com discountscarvesonsale.com silkscarfonsale.com jordansbox.com eluxury-outlet.com borntrade.com storeofeast.com boxedtvseries.com odvdo.com dajaz1.com b2corder.com sunglasses-mall.com lv-outlets.com lv-outlets.net lv-outletstore.com golfstaring.com lifetimereplicas.com handbag9.com nfljerseysupply.com jerseyclubhouse.com borntrade.net cheapscarfshop.com 500i.net louisvuittonoutletstore4u.com louisvuittonoutletstores2u.com thelouisvuittonoutlet.com suprbay.us
