But the giant swings are where the day traders make money. All this stability is horrible for day traders.

Won't this make the price go up? 
of course, and since obviously "everyone" expects that, a failed rocket launch followed by a mini crash could indeed be the result.
Or a mega crash?

Most people say that the last big rally was about pricing in the reward halving, I have an alternative theory.
Around June 25, Butterfly Labs opened the pre-orders for ASICS:

April and May have been pretty stable, but in June miners increasingly hold back bitcoins for later investment and speculators anticipate on a rally due to the pre-orders, so the price starts rising in June.
Next, I believe that not all coins taken in by BitPay immediately re-enter the market, as Tony Gallippi claims to have traded against pirate a few weeks after. Of course, this could partly be with his own coins or whatever, but seeing the price go up and knowing the numbers, I think he has chosen to make an informed bet. Link:

After that, there was nothing holding back the price, so a parabolic blowoff has to occur. This is bitcoin after all.
I'm just throwing in my perspective since it has been fairly quiet here today.

The block reward halving will only have a psychological effect on the market. Almost 80% of all the Bitcoin in existence is just sitting sitting there. The block reward change will have 0 effect on supply.
Actually that would make it the opposite:BTC moving around at a rapid pace would mean changes to creation rate would mean little, but if new money is a large part of the "money that moves" so to speak and it is halved then the money that moves is close to halved and supply for new-comers with $ thus greatly affected.
There is gonna be panic buying and I will laugh at you all. Maybe I could take you seriously if your "logic" was not always like this:

1. Halving.
2. ASICS (totally not a scam).
3.
4. Mega drop in prices.

Less reward means fewer miner coins trying buy dollars for hardware upgrades/electrons/food - you can't price that in until it happens unless people have been investing a lot extra for the past 6 months continuously.
Price is not agreed on it is established by some in/out flow of BTC/$.

My finger is hovering over the sell button --

I agree, it's not going to go up like everyone is hoping and then it's panic mode.
