Apart from the fact that it looks like we are going to have (at best) yet another hanging man on the monthly charts by the end of the GMT day, or at worst a slide right back down. The selling pressure is ramping up, and demand has shrunk by yet another $73,000 (on top of the $150,000 a few days ago) and supply has increased by 9250 btc. Aggregate demand is only $650,000 now. The last time we were at $4.15, aggregate demand was $822,585. |

Wasn't as bad as I first thought.. But yes, trading drunk you get trigger happy.. Well it wasn't that bad of a plan. Saw the drop starting and liquidated my long at 4,25ish on bitcoinica, but wasn't thinking clearly due to being intoxicated and used a market order instead of limit order. It went through for 4,04 total. Wanted to buy back in at 3,90, which was quite a nice call, but of course the spread screwed me over, so I'm still left with USD. Oh well. My own fault. Don't trade when intoxicated, and don't try to profit of these kind of swings with those insane spreads on Bitcoinica when things are moving Not going to start any positions now, I'll wait till I'm sober again ^^ |

There's a recent history of someone (or more likely, some bot) getting rather sell-happy and dumping the price by 10% instantly. It seems to me the more logical way to sell a large amount is in small amounts over time, rather than dumping the price instantly.

Perhaps trying to trigger a widespread panic since the (smaller) large sells lately haven't been doing it. I managed to liquidate @ 4.19 and change, on one of the bounces and got my order sitting at 3.825 executed. So worked out for me! |

AFAIK the buy prices on bitcoinica never hit 3,825 due to the spreads? How did you manage to buy at that price again?  |

Like I've been saying, there are a lot of people very eager to get out as the price creeps up. Too many and the price will stop creeping up because the market can't sustain that many dumps like this. I'll be dumbfounded if the price is above $4 when I wake up tomorrow.

Bitcoin Fact: the price of bitcoin will not be greater than $70k for more than 25 consecutive days at any point in the rest of recorded human history.

Oh and BTW, I don't use bitcoinica. The way I trade runs enough risk without adding leverage. So yeah... Like I've been saying, there are a lot of people very eager to get out as the price creeps up. Too many and the price will stop creeping up because the market can't sustain that many dumps like this. I'll be dumbfounded if the price is above $4 when I wake up tomorrow.
This is what I've been thinking. But, it's like a child fighting going to sleep. |

So, when did you wake up? It was under $4 when I woke up, but a few minutes later it went above $4. Since then it's been bouncing around $4. I'm very surprised. An hour or so ago somebody put up about a 5000BTC ask pretty close to spot, but removed it after a few minutes and it doesn't seem that those coins were spread out anywhere or sold, yet. |

Nah, don't think so. Too quiet right now. I do hope we'll rally the coming ~24 hours, though I'll win the 2BTC contest if it hits 5$ the 28th of December ^^
