In order to dump coins one must have coins
Is btc-e finally catching up? What's wrong with the price on that exchange anyways?

Gox is leading some whale has been throwing a lot of money at it. btc-e just follows blindly stamp is resisting a bit

RMBTB.com: The secure BTC:CNY exchange. 0% fee!
One thing is for sure: These sideways markets really fuck with your mind.

When I see Y5300 in China and shit myself when it goes down to Y4900, I try to remember that it is the same as $53 to $49

Can someone explain to me how such a low volume of trades (compared to april of last year) can raise the price this high?

You have to measure volume in USD my friend, as the price is going up.
Even in BTC terms, trading volume is historically high.

You've just got to consider all the exchanges.

And there will be another sell-off.

I take it you sold all your coins then?

these small uptrends that don't lift off scare me...but I think that's because bitcoin has been steady raising since I bought in...I feel as if a dump from a whale is waiting in the depths...at the same time.. I could see the switch to a slower uptrend with some volatility.

Restarting my computer and taking a bio break...this would be the time its shits the bed or goes to the moon.

Haven't the whales already been dumping?  I think they are not getting the same results that they used to get though so perhaps they will slow down a bit.  Also, as time goes on they will sell coin and the whales will be holding less to dump I would think.

I've seen higher buy order groupings then I have seen sell orders.. I personally believe it was a group profit taking.. everytime we run up to 875-900.

I agree with many that Bitcoin does what it wants..but what it wants is in reality what the majority (lets say a btc is a vote in the sense of control) of the market wants...these larger buys aren't effecting price the way they were a week or two ago imo. Its not standing pat...I think of it as a feeling out period still imo...as I believe the past plays apart in what unfurls but this is a very different present and who knows what future bitcoin holds for us.

There are 5 major exchanges now. When you see a 1K buy you need to imagine it is a 5K buy.

That 14k of buying earlier on gox was like 70k of buying - market changing. We are going to the moon.
I understand the math - I'm just saying it's not nearly as subjectively satisfying.

Big money wants in, don't be fooled by the big fish who patiently waits for cheaper coins.

This is no 2011, the stakes are much higher this time.

lots of coins were bought... but it means nothing still...there have been small lift offs since Friday into Monday no after burn though.

I will agree there was a lot of volume, in that quick window.. but if its new money.. and this doesn't cause lift off.. imagine those weak hands.. with 850 coins Cheesy

After reading that catastrophic 750k inheritance disaster story on reddit,..where not only did he get raped on the initial asset sale.. he then goes and buys at 850.. sells at 500 or something.. either way lost about 75k in a trade.

These kind of people see bitcoin and go herp derp I'll triple my money.. and then they try to day trade like there financial super stars.

I think what we need to see is sub 700 to break the cheap coins at 750-850 range, after that it could be either enough fuel to cause an after burn or what I'd like to see a test of the support levels. sub 700

While you've got a point all i can say this is Bitcoin and it doesn't give a fuck.
There were people here who said it was impossible that we'd see triple digits this year or that we'd need to hit 50 before we can go up. He had the same logic as you have. I think he's still waiting.

See what i'm saying? Everybody here has a reason why Bitcoin can or can't go up. But Bitcoin doesn't care.

Even though a 100 BTC buy at $850 is like a 1k BTC buy at $85, it's just not the same as when you used to see 10K ask walls bought out in a single gulp.

Noobie-call+crystal sphere:

Within the next 4-8 hours we reach around 880 on gox.
After that we form a straight handle over 24-30 hours 830 being lowest.
Then we see a 12 hour steady increase, before we shoot for 1500.
There will be little resistance at 1000, but some at 1200.
After having reached 1500 we fall back and bounce off 1166 USD, which
could be a dead cat. temporary resistance on its way down.
