Hmm, hoping for that spread between mtgox and bitstamp to go down, then its time to hop in again. Trying to get out of BTC right now, its a bit too big of a spread for my taste.

its been clear for a while now that bitstamps is get more and more volume coming from mt gox

the price difference is a result of this shift

it could stay that way for a long time... buy now  Wink



A volume-based metric I place some trust in, confirms that: there is substantial buying pressure on bitstamp, even if the price gap somewhat obscures this fact.





First the similarities: daily A/D continued to rise on both bit and mtg, well after the April peak, and throughout the initial correction/bubble deflation. It peaked in mid-June, then gently started sloping downwards. The corresponding price action was the recent downtrend that took us from ~110 to ~70 (mtg prices).

Now for the differences: as of early JuneJuly, A/D stabilized on mtg. Maybe with a weak upwards slope. Contrast this with bit: around the same time, instead of merely stabilizing, A/D is shooting up (in comparison).

It's as if all the btc optimism migrated from mtgox to bitstamp. No guarantee that this lasts however, if mtgox manages to solve its fiat problem in time.

EDIT: corrected mistake

One problem:

I'm stuck.

All of my fiat is stuck on Mt. Gox. Fortunately I was smart enough to buy a little on this latest small dip into the high 80s on gox, but now I'm screwed big time. I have to give away like 10% of my fiat just to get it into the legit exchange.

Cry

I have yet to use Gox and not regret my decision.

lol fiat problems  Cheesy

sorry, I do empathize for you and all the fiat holders stuck on Gox Kazu

So I get fiat, and I get screwed over because online all it is is just debt owed to you by the exchange of your choice.
So I get Bitcoin, and I get screwed over because the exchange rate derps.

I need to find something to do with my time that doesn't result in not sleeping at night.

and soon, bitstamp will eat up mtgox's market share Smiley

i wish a new market place came up and took on the job of servicing the US and Canada, and did an awesome job. but I guess bitstamps can do that. it would be nice to see bitstamps grow to the size of mtgox and not have so many technical / non-technical problems...

This thread is defined more by it's off-topicness than by its actual topic, so I'll continue posting whatever the fuck I feel like. Smiley

I do consider it good practice not to spam the entire thread with those tangential discussions, especially if there's something interesting going on on the market, but that was hardly the case here.

How about we all just recognize this isn't a religious thread and is instead a Bitcoin thread, and thus don't bring up religion? I'm sure there is some place on this forum where you can talk about religion if you want to. I don't particularly care if you are religions or not, but thats completely off-topic, even by this thread's standards.

Feel free to place me on ignore. This thread is defined more by it's off-topicness than by its actual topic, so I'll continue posting whatever the fuck I feel like. Smiley

If there is one thing this forum has taught me, it's that for many, bitcoin is religion. Wink

And for others TA is religion.  Cheesy
