Nor is there a spoon.

there is a spork then?

No manipulator though. Just a bunch of wannabe day traders making poor choices

It is not the spoon that bends, it is yourself.

Nope, there are no big players that determine the price, none at all.

You mean "It is not the spoon that bends, it is your self", but then that implies ownership of the self when actually the self owns you, but there is no you, there is only self.

So, there is only a bunch of you's buying/selling trying to find happiness(self) through greed, security, and a billion other reasons...like me!  When I decided to try trading, I found myself reacting to short term fluctuations, buying when I shouldn't have...panicing and selling when I shouldn't have.  It's all a true test of patience.  You can't learn anything without making mistakes though.

Spirituality and bitcoin. Woohoo!

Man, I remember that day! I caught that knife at $2.50...Ah, Good ol' days!

But, never mind the 50k bidwall that was a permanent fixture on Goxlive for over a month.

Actually, I meant yourself.  Your "self" is ego.  It owns nothing, but believes it owns everything.  A strong ego will lead a king back into battle even after most of his army has been slaughtered.  In order to bend the spoon, you have to have a balanced mind that is able to become so absorbed with the spoon that it becomes one with it's object of meditation.  Then, you, the spoon, bend.

Also, you actually can learn from the mistakes of others, it's just a lot easier to accept the lesson when you have the pain memory to go with it.  Empathy is key there.

Why do people choose to ignore the most obvious things... ?

[ZodiacDragon84]

Because Mt. Gox has reliability issues, and because someone  like an investor or mutual fund owner decided BTC was too volatile and backed out for a mainstream stock option. Who knows. Personally, Im in it for the currency. Profit is not an issue, because bitcoin backs itself. aside from the 20000 btc pizza. And Im mildly math tarded, your chart really means nothing to me.

Wow, if you can't be bothered to learn how to read an order chart, you have no business being here.

Actually, on second thought, I hope you invest heavily in bitcoin. Be sure to buy or sell whenever you think the market is favorable.
