There has been a lot of shrewd, sophisticated and patient acquisition over the last few days. This, for Bitcoin, is highly irregular.
Really? And there was me thinking that the market was simply being swished around on low volume in order to flush out weak shorts and longs alternately?
If their has been a lot of shrewd and patient acquisition, then where is the volume? I don't see any? My own trading accounts surely for over 150 BTC this week, I have enough funds on exchanges to own just 15 BTC, yet I don't own any BTC. So here is an example of 1 little fish who has contributed 150 + BTC of trade volume, yet who doesn't any BTC.
What the market is doing, is hovering right above a very dangerous long term trendline and nobody is very keen on buying, yet there is also a good chance Bitcoin springs up to at least $750, so nobody wants to sell.
