Gox Twitter: "Trading is suspended until 2013-04-12 02:00am UTC for market cooldown. Once back trading will be also faster."
IMO They halted this because we were about to go below key psychological level on the chart......yesterday's low.
Topic: More bot bids...to simulate interest. (Read 1034 times)
The bots most likely impose some sort of price movement friction while being agnostic to market state, so they buy at that point.
It doesn't tell anything. Why do a magic conspiracy when there's money to be made without even caring why the market is as nutty as it is? Maniacs drive price around, bots take their share. It's just how it works.
What is annoying is that those tiny orders are allowed and drive up the lag. If Gox took a little bit off their high fees and imposed a 1$ trade fee in turn, there would be a lot less noise.

No magical conspiracy; they appear at key support levels because if those supports break -- yesterday happens. Someone or something with a vested interest to keep this up places these bot bids at key support levels to maintain the chart. People don't realize how close we've come to having a major sell-off over the past few weeks. We are always a support level away.

What is annoying is that those tiny orders are allowed and drive up the lag. If Gox took a few % off their high fees and imposed a 1$ flat trade fee instead, there would be a lot less noise.

In real-time they would have no effect whatsoever. The reason they work is because of the lag.....in slow motion, they inflate the bid/ask. This affects the way people trade because, during a lag, the bid/ask keep shooting up well above the stream of sells, simulating a bounce. In real-time, the bids would be crushed. But in slow motion it helps stem the psychology of the panic because the inflated bid/ask stick for quite some time, giving everyone ample time to see it..

To simulate interest....look at all these 0.02 bids. If we drop to these levels and lag, they will support the bid/ask.
EDIT: Always at key support levels.....we have a lag, then these bot bids appear. Bid/ask shoot up to the level of these tiny bids even though the stream of sells is much much lower. The slow motion of the lag make these bid/ask jumps much more pronounced, stemming the psychology of the sell-off. This is why we always jump back up so quickly after a minor sell-off (bizarre how bid/ask jump based on tiny 0.02 bids in spite of large 100s or 1000s of coin dumps). It's happened during the past 4 minor sell-offs and yesterday, although the selling was too strong for it to work yesterday.
