And good night from Europe. Smiley
Don't know what to expect from tomorrow, so I am 50/50 now.
Ok, I have a stronger bias for a small retraction to 245 land, before a new charge, but tomorrow will tell.

at least we know what the bid wall is all about on stamp.

Push stamp price up -> Gox users will flip out and buy the shit out of the 6k wall -> drop bid wall on stamp -> Dump more coins on stamp after having force fed your 266 to gox. Flush with fiat on both exchanges, pick up the broken dreams.

That's my theory.  It seems to be working.

It would work if everyone is in euphoria with the price flying through the roof and no one wants to sell as seems to be the case.

I wonder what will happen when people finally do rush to sell if that does happen.

Or maybe we go to the moon to 1000 without a hiccup.

Either way, these walls freak me out! I can't sell all my btcs though

ok so I figure whoever this wall belongs to must have wanted to sell for a long time, and now feels like there is enough buy pressure incoming due to ATH being reached that he can get away with selling so many.

Is that the only scenario that makes sense?

Woot, gox, stamp parity.

Finally!

This means the market perception of Gox's failure likelihood has now reduced from 5-10% down to 0%, right?  Grin

Would it be so bad if BTC traded sideways between 250 and 270 for a few weeks before its next big move upward?

A few weeks is forever in bitcoin time.

Trading sideways for a day is about the best one can hope for Cheesy

anyone notice that MtGox also has 8000BTC ask wall at 170GBP, 6000BTC wall at 202EUR and 6000BTC wall at 285CAD.
So with the 6000BTC at 267USD, that's... a lot of BTC for sale.
wow, can´t believe I missed that one. Well spotted. Thank you
Its the same coins, I made the same mistake before.

Yup, same coins just expressed in a different currency

Interesting....and thanks again

Numbers seem to be pretty round for that, don't they?
EDIT: nevermind, they are not round

Anyways, has Bitstamp ever seen so few coins for sale ever? 3.3k to 300$, 5.8 to 400..

Pretty sure they'll be the same coins. Gox uses some sort of cross-currency system to fill orders so I wonder if the wall is reflected in all the currencies used in that system

Hmm, ok. Guess that makes sense to self arbitrate.

You can do that? Thought that you had to have the coins for each?

Sorry for asking such a basic question but I'm still not sure I fully understand how to read these charts:

For example I took this order book print from Bitstamp 5 minutes ago. Doesn't it mean basically that there is a lot more depth in the bid side compared to the ask side? So isn't that a very bullish signal (more people want to buy than sell)? But I often see similar charts without very bullish comments, which makes me wonder if I'm not understanding some factor here?



It was mentioned in this thread before. We should not forget, there are currently USD 2.5 Mio lend on Bitfinex for Bitcoin long positions. I wonder how many coins are behind this sum (10000-15000?). With 57% pa, they are going to hit these bids sooner or later or will act as a future wall.
