I agree with proudhon. People were no doubt holding during the rally (miners, bitpay, etc.), coins are going to be coming out of the woodwork.

And that's just the people who were holding (like, had them in their own wallet, or just sitting in MtGox).  Now, in addition to all those holders getting their coins ready to sell, we've got the hundreds of thousands of coins coming out of the pirate ship and a good portion of those a likely to end up on MtGox.  I hope everyone is well stocked on popcorn and beer, because this week is going to be epic.  What we've already seen is the tip of the iceberg, so to speak.  This is going to be bad.
terrorism at its finest
I love how people think somehow the price is just going to jump back up. Here's the thing: if I wanted to accumulate more BTC right now and I was in possession of thousands of them (or, say, 400K like Pirate supposedly), easiest way to do it is to wait for a minor rally like today, and when people start thinking the price is trending up and there's a large enough wall at, say, $10 buy, sell into that wall and take it out, leaving a gigantic 60K sell wall in it's place. Then wait for the panic to drop the price down to $7 and buy some more. But if you can play it right, why buy at $7 if you can force it even lower, like down to $5 or less? Then you have the potential to double whatever you sold initially. This is how the market gets manipulated, and while others have certainly come out ahead with the volatility of the past couple days, the bigger fish are coming out even further ahead. Just my take, obviously.

the market gets manipulated only to the capacity that the traders are ignorant

Trying to get btc to MtGox to sell into the juicy rally before the price falls again.

MtGox says: "Database access error, please retry later"

Fail.

I won't be selling any of my pirate booty, but I'm tempted to get some usd ready in case others do.

It's going to bounce around as people who sold buy back thinking they're doing it at the bottom.  I'm saying, I don't think most of people playing in the market realize that there's a storm headed this way and it's even bigger than the one that already passed through.

I agree. I think.

i was able to get ~440 BTC @ $8.  wanted to get more at that price, but the market rose too fast....

Same Smiley Good Price

I'm being totally serious.  If this isn't making you worried, then you haven't payed enough attention to the way this market behaves.



Just days ago there was a little over 60,000 BTCs on the sell side.  Total.  Now there are ~200,000 BTCs to $15.  It would take almost 2.5 million dollars to get back to where we just were days ago, assuming a single giant buy.  AND, the number of bitcoins that has suddenly appeared on MtGox doesn't represent the additional hundreds of thousands that will be entering the market throughout the week, assuming pirate actually makes good on his claim to cover everyone's deposits.  In a odd twist of fate, it'd be better for the market for pirate to just run off with all those bitcoins.  To say that supply has increased a lot is a laughable understatement, even now, and considering what's coming this looks worse than it did in the lead up to the crash to $2.

what if a big holder of BTC's, i know some, decide they want even more BTC.  they put up huge ask walls they never intend to sell just to scare the living bejeezus out of guys like you then scoop them up at prices like $7-10?  that's what i'd call accumulation.

The odds of that happening seem quite a bit lower to me than the odds of the price going down much, much further since, unlike your hypothetical case, the number of bitcoins being thrown up for sale on MtGox has in fact gone up by almost 4x in the past few days and the odds are pretty good that hundreds of thousands more will make their way into the market throughout the week.  Maybe there are a few deep pockets out there who want to own a lot of bitcoins, but you'd need some pretty deep pockets to buy right now in the face of what's likely headed this way.

well, all i can say is RALLY TIME!  price back over $10 and heading higher!  Cheesy

That's always been the case as far as I knew. Less coins = less selling. Idiots believing in a ponzi is nothing new, I doubt that mud would stick to BTC in the way you seem to think it may have.

There are more bitcoins than ever piling up on the sell side.  Things are going to fun this week as all of pirate's mates move their bitcoins to MtGox.  Hopefully we can get down to at least $5, and if we're lucky, even lower.
