It's already been one month since 275, and people have been scared shitless the whole time. It's no wonder a change in sentiment is beginning to kick in now.

Just $15 dollars up and people acting like we are back to 600
meh

This price action is retarded and can only end in one direction.

Keep doubting the 5th of October. Keep doubting and supply the fuel!
So, I don't think this is "professionalization". It's the same as always, fools thinking they're clever and going short after 11-12 months of bear market.
Again: I'm not dissing traders, am doing so myself. But it is interesting nonetheless. At least in terminology, the 'holder' mentality seems to decline in importance somewhat, while the 'trader' mentality is on the rise. I suspect a twofold reason: the long bear market (rewarding thinking in terms of USD profits), and an increasing professionalization of the market.
There are times when many people HODL. That's when it is best to be a trader because the signals will be crisp clear. Other times, many people get into "trading", and that's when it is best to be an investor, because that's when the signals begin to get muddled.So, I don't think this is "professionalization".

The downtrend is not over, I still think we'll break $300, but for now we are in a little uptrend.

Here's my simpleminded take (the relevant bit is circled in red):
That's the finex buys yesterday night?

Also, while I'm on the topic of bid/ask in a little conversation with myself....
Last time I posted about it, September 13, I said the following:
... and got reactions like
or
Price was around $400 at the time of posting, and topped out less than 24h later at 417. The rest is known.
Just mentioning it because the "common knowledge" is that the order book can't ever be trusted. Which is just as naive as thinking you can fully trust the order book.
In any case, bid/ask taking a slight dive since yesterday night, as can be expected after the latest swing up (let's not call it a rally, mkay), but by the looks of it, there's still quite a bit of ammo left on stamp. Unlikely to stop here, more likely to briefly pause.
Last time I posted about it, September 13, I said the following:
Stamp's bid side is depleted (figuratively speaking). If you look at stamp's bid/ask over the last 24-48 hours, you'll see that a number of big buys correspond to big drops in bid/ask. In other words, Stamp is probably partially responsible that we're going up right now, by traders losing patience and pulling bids from the book to market buy, but now they're out of fuel somewhat.

EDIT: Better close your shorts

Nice bearFUD, better cut your looose you troll.

Good morning gentlemen!
What's the accepted backstory for today's meteoric rise?

You're probably not really interested in an answer, but at least part of the reason is probably...
The relevant bit is on the right side. That, and another wave of buying on Bitfinex, I'd say.

Is THAT what you call a circle?

Should we fit a parabola through those three points, and see what it predicts?
Using all available data points and fitting a loglinear model to them: "Unjustified extrapolation! Look at the worldcom stock!"
Using 3 cherry picked data points and fitting a parabola to them: "Sounds about right. ScumbagSteve.jpg"

I'd like to see a parabola fit through these 3 points, my brain says it can't be done with a parabola.
More likely to fit a Gaussian distribution.

I had this software opened, so I couldn't resist.
P.S: The green is actually the real thing. And it's scary as f¤ck! (If you want higher prices, that is...)
OK, I thought of a classical parabola function. And no it can't be that bearish as the green line.
PS@podyx: the green line would mean that the upwards potential is rubbish, and I don't think so.
