someone just dumped 820 coins on stamp 
But it didn't make that much of a dent. BTC E is still $15 cheaper. Bearstamp is still tied to Huobi and BTC E is off on a frolic of its own.

What's going on at btc-e? Always lower than bitstamp lately but now its almost $20 difference 
Bitstamp is used more by payment processors like Coinbase/BitPay etc. keeping a steady flow, while btc-e is mainly speculation folk.
Wouldn't that (being used by payment processors) increase the downward pressure resulting in a lower exchange rate at BitStamp?
Do payment processors like Coinbase/BitPay purchase coins?

theres always the awesome beaches of ubatuba just a few hrs away and some interesting mtns btw them if you hike...
I was there last october actually. But "few hours" is more like six, on low traffic days...Yes, the Serra do Mar plateau scarp covered with semitropical forest may be the best scenery in the whole State. I know of at least one "Amazon jungle" movie that was actually shot there.

In this example, the existence of the big wall triggered a price drop that would have been delayed indefinitely without it. Does this sort of thing happen in reality? If so, is it common enough to negate the "protective" effect of big walls?
Constantly. Any change in the available liquidity creates a new market environment for takers, and their rational choices change.
In an unregulated environment, you will see liquidity taken away from the BBO.

That is their m.o.
BTC-e BTC/USD correlates better with BTC-e LTC/USD than it does with other bitcoin markets.

Now, on topic:
One would expect that a big "wall" - an offer to buy or sell 100 BTC or more, sitting in the order book - would be a barrier for the price, halting its fall or rise for a while.
But could it be that a big wall also attracts large transactions that "eat" it instantly?

Yes, walls sometimes attract long term buyers or sellers who are interested in a slippage free exchange rate.

Campinas is sort of like like Finland in winter, without the winter. "Entertainment" is four shopping malls
Just because I wrote that... A foot-long lizard came into our living room, scared the hell out little But proves nothing, it surely could have happened in Finland too, with a reindeer or something.

Suppose that the highest bid is at 900$ and there are only small bids all the way down to 700$, adding to 20 BTC.
Someone who wants to sell 100 BTC at 800$ minimum will probably wait. If he sells 10 BTC to the small bidders in the 800-900 range, the price will fall to 800$. Some bidders will get scared and lower their bids even more, further away from his sell goal.
Now suppose someone puts up a bid for 150 BTC at 800$; then that seller would immediately sell his batch.
In this example, the existence of the big wall triggered a price drop that would have been delayed indefinitely without it. Does this sort of thing happen in reality? If so, is it common enough to negate the "protective" effect of big walls?
