I hope that you are aware of MtGox statistics:

30-day Volume: 4,714,294.44347162 BTC

30-day Volume (Currency): 535,113,600.90 USD


Good luck, but honestly I think it will be like paddling with spoons on Amazon river.

Yes, I am aware of that. I am not expecting great results.

Is anyone willing to buy just one coin, at the same time with me, just to experiment?

The only rule is 1 btc. Not 0.1 increments. I want to see that little butterfly triggering a hurrincane Tongue

I do not ask anyone to join, I just want to know if there is any trader that might want to make a coalition. You then can sell any time (yea, even next second).

If 7 more people are in, I'll disclose the hour for Sunday April 27th. So far myself and 2 friends.

One bitcoin x 10 is not going to do anything!

So if you get 10 people, you'll see 10 bitcoins being purchased on bitcoinity?

How is that any different from normal?

If you can rally up 200 people, buying 10 coins each I'd join in (unfortunately this means I'd have to sell my coins first Tongue).

Just a reminder for this.

I have already put a bot. I will buy at exactly 13:00:13, will let others to buy lower than me. I will sell that coin only when price doubles.

Great. Please popularize, if you know others interested.

I also think we could have competition, organized groups that will sell maybe 2 BTC to distrupt us Tongue
That would make it even more difficult to judge what just happened ôo
(Maybe people will do it anyway)
Sadly I have no account at Gox.

It's a great idea.

I already have proposed this, but since this seems to be an "organized buying" thread, I figure its worth another shot.



This is just an idea of a way a group could potentially help stabilize bitcoin rather than following the usual volatility-inducing day-trading techniques.


A "slope" would be created as described following a supply line as displayed, such that the total amount in the amount being traded is equal to the "excess supply" (i.e, red shaded regions) before the slope. Note the next "excess supply" after the original (i.e, the red shaded region near $150) A "floor" is created 1 cent below a natural support level. If the price hits the floor, you buy and fill in the asks to meet the slope (I.e, slowly fill in the green regions below slope). When the buffer region (the green region before wall) exceeds total excess supply, the floor is repositioned.

Just wondering if anybody thinks this is a good idea.
