I feel like these exchanges are the reason why we need a bigger backed up venture like the twins exchange to be more legit.
Less insider stuff since they have a name to protect, and how they about to launch one soon thank god.
Topic: $162 Bitfinex [2015-AUG-18] - page 3. (Read 4019 times)
A move like this is most likely due to insider trading. I'm assuming someone inside bitfinex saw an opportunity to crash the market and trigger a majority of margin calls. A lot of little guys just lost everything so a whale could have a snack. I hope some lessons in margin trading were learned.
I was thinking the same thing.Margin trading is poison to me.
Damn, somebody made my day! 
Had a bunch of orders just sleeping at 175
What can i say... thanks?!

theres no way a human reaction could of profitted that unless they had some sort of automated system.
within a minute to execute those trades is absurd so imma assume some employee did some insider stuff like the person above mentioned.

Margin call cascade, whales picked up shitloads of coins from margin long positions down there.
I almost cried when I first seen it, anyways it's gone back up now.
Don't to worry bro, take this situation to get profit. I just get profit and now price up again. Dont sell your coins but buy more coins and you will get profit 
What's the reason? Can anyone explain?
Leveraged traders got busted on finex
Just got cheap coinz
damn! i expected the price to go down, but definitely not this much. glad bitstamp and btc-e didn't follow bitfinex downwards.
The gap is so huge.. I'm jealous at those bitfinex users that were quick enough to purchase the bitcoins at $170, its $194 now, bitstamp seems to be sadly following :-/ 
What's the reason? Can anyone explain?
people selling their coins.

Who could've thunk about this timing. My fishing hooks are not ready
