HODL OR DIE
Just because there is a huge sell side order doesnt imply downside. It could be viewed as a good price for a whale.

No, right, I get the math. On the ask-order list It looks like it's only around $1 million.

Why does the chart show the blue line $10M tall??  That's effin' nuts if there's only $1 million of support.  I mean, supply and demand.  The chart is meaningless if you don't show them in the same units, right?

That's the cumulative, and if you're saying what I think you're trying to say, 1000x1000 isn't 10 million.

and maybe a few other large orders I missed.

It looks like a single whompin' huge vertical line on the chart, but now that I look at the asks column, it's several different middlin' large orders all clustered together right around 1000.  And they're all on btce, oddly enough.  

According to the calibration line at the left side of the top chart, the top of the wall is just short of '11M'  and the bottom at just over 1M.  But looking at the 'Asks' list I can only find about $1M worth of orders.  Most of it shows as the two BIG orders at 993.81 and 994.83.  But that doesn't add up to $10M.

  Huh  What exactly is the scale o the top chart?  Huh

I think you might be looking at the left-hand scale when you should be looking at the right-hand side for the ask depth. There are 351.3400 btc for sale at 994.43000 which looks like a huge wall but is actually about $350,000. Still a considerable amount but nowhere near 10 million

I wonder how much BTC these early adopters are still holding on to. Maybe there will be lots more of these big sell orders in the future...

Muss with the sliders at the bottom of the chart if you don't see it.  I'm displaying the range from 880 to 1010.

Sorry.  The URL doesn't do it by itself.  Click "all USD" then click "depth."

It appears to be spread over several different marketplaces.

Wow.  I've never seen a vertical ten-million dollar wall before. 

I checked BitStamp, MtGox and BTCChina and couldn't see this "$10 million dollar wall" [~10,000 BTC]  anywhere.
