Although I'm definitely a medium and long-term bull, I think the market wants to test the $50 lows before going much higher. You guys might be right about the 150 this week, but I think we will test the new lows - and this will help the bull be stronger for the medium term....Patience (or not). We will get there.

This time? The most positive press was on Thursday and Friday, with Friday getting the ABC front page about the Winklevii. Given the time it takes wire transfers to make it to exchanges, I project Wednesday and Thursday will be the most bullish of the week. But I think we'll start seeing the earliest action tomorrow.
People who made it to the bank Friday -> will be buying Monday
People who made it to the bank Sat -> will be buying Tuesday
People who make it to the bank tomorrow -> Will be buying Wednesday and Thursday (this will be the majority)
Some transfers take a little longer, and some people will have waited til Tuesday, so we'll see some action Friday and Sat as well.
Following week may see some latecomers who want to get in on the increase, which may result in a mini-bubble and a little volatility.
Month's end? We may well be seeing 170-200 coin.

just looking at the pattern I have noticed..... usually monday and tuesday gox is somewhat attack free. I suppose someone wants the price to go up. Or maybe it just goes up because that is when most funds arrive and people don't like to wait to buy. But then wednesday and thursday there is usually a lag attack and also a crash. Just saying ........

Meh, maybe it could be Wednesday. I said 150-160 by Friday. Other posters are saying 170-180. We'll just have to wait and see.
One thing's for sure - the lack of action today is boring.

WOW... I'm amazed also. Based on your brief posting history here I figured you would be one of our new permabears. Seems you are more reasonable than that. I think being perma anything is a tad extreme, leaves no room for error. hehe
I've never been perma-anything other than perma-right
So far, I haven't been wrong about a single prediction I've made on this forum yet.
I held when people were selling at 160 and 190.
I sold at 235 the morning before the bubble burst.
When it burst and dropped to 150, people said buy, but I said it would continue to sub-100.
At 79 I bought up and sold at 100+.
I correctly stated yesterday's run-up to 130 was a bull trap, and it's since dropped to 100.
I've been right every single time, and I will be right on this. We will see 150+ by week's end, possibly 160. From there it will stabilize and slowly appreciate, no bubble burst this time
I also started my active career in the forum as a bear, but that lasted for about 2 days. After wising up, I have been right on everything, so welcome to the club!
Except that my take for the next week is rise to $150 by Wednesday, and a muted dippish weekend as per the "normal order of late March, 2013". Only one of us can be right on this one, or perhaps both, what do you say?Btw Tesla was a genius.

Yeah, I'm not the kind of dumbass to throw my life savings into one investment; I've only re-invested my profits so far. That way if something catastrophic happens like AES encryption somehow gets cracked tomorrow, I will still have broken even. Barring anything like that, this call seems pretty obvious. MSM reports big name investors getting in = public wants in too = more demand = price goes up.

Don't overestimate your abilities. This quickly leads to wrong decisions. Just saying.
A swing to 160 seems reasonable. But I'm not sure if Bitcoin will continue to rise from this level. Price could also dip again and develop a stretched plateau around $ 80.
But none of this really matters: A Bitcoin will still be a Bitcoin.

as good a prediction as any other. I expect a rise with strong resistance around 180$.. no timeframe. That's if it breaks strong resistance at $130 first!
April 14, 2013, 12:01:51 PM
One of the advantages I see of those more serious investors in bitcoin is they will help to stabilize the market I think. They will hold their coins much longer than a normal investor would and I don't think they would try to dump them and join a panic and try to profit off of bubbles.... but rather seek a more longer term investment and recoup it eventually gradually over time.

I think that's a reasonable call.
I'm thinking if we hold around $100 to close today, $120 tomorrow is doable as a bump, not starting a trend of that steepness though.
And I think the only reason I haven't been called a perma-bull yet is because I have that Bear in my name - false flag

113 - 118 Monday (2013-04-15) with cautious increments due to burgeoning market to 160-165 Monday (2013-04-22).
Seems about right.
April 14, 2013, 06:53:59 AM
If Mtgox doesn't lag (which is asking quite a lot) I agree we could be seeing $150 by the end of the week.
April 14, 2013, 06:51:39 AM
No, we won't see another enormous bubble, but the price has stabilized at $100 during this calm period before the new money comes in, and when the new money comes in it will only go up.
Stabilized price in bitcoin world= 2 days

Why else? Because "buy bitcoins" search volume is the highest it's ever been, peaking Friday and Saturday:
this is not true. it peaked Thursday, April 11. please only post claims you yourself have verified...

so you found Facebook brothers 4 days after everyone else did, now can you tell us when they started buy BTC? Was it before or after Avalon shipped their first ASIC?
No, I knew about the story when it was first reported by smaller outlets. It was just yesterday that it got front page MSM coverage, and I'm pointing that out.

One of the related stories indicated they acquired their coins last summer (2012). BTW at worst that means they paid $15 a coin and are looking at a solid gain.
