This waiting game is awful. No whale bidwalls to re-assure us; no whale asks to scare us. Nothing. Its just a game of waiting for the first massive market order followed by a wall. Market buys that dont cleanly take us over 150 seem irrelevant to the market right now. So, if the price really does go up, its probably going to have a bid wall on 150, leaving anyone who sold below 150 stuck buying back at a loss if they desire.
And I'd imagine if someone decides its time to go down, we'll have a nice ask on 140, since there is no depth below that.
A 10k sell takes the price to 130.. another 10k? 119... Another? 110. No depth above 120. Its just weird it hasnt filled in at all over these past few days. Murky waters are expected following such huge price changes, but its had time to build.
Anyone have some opinions? Is this just a 125 repeat where just when market sentiment flips, "they" buy, or are "they" done?

i think this is the first gray daily candle ever!
I think you're right. Unless you count when Gox was down for a couple of days after the 2011 bubble burst.
Yes. And the eight-hour gox-grey candle during the 2013 burst too.

Has anyone noticed all this automated bot activity lately? 5 rapid fire trades at a time, both up and down, 1 BTC - 0.01 BTC at a time. Meanwhile large orders on the buy and sell side repeatedly appear and disappear within seconds, always at the same location and for roughly the same amounts.
Someone needs to tweak their bots.

What's interesting to me is that even though the log will show 5 trades, the order book will only show 1 of them actually making a deduction to the leading order at the time. So while it looks like 5 btc is being sold at a time, its only 1 btc.
The only way I figure they're doing this is to add 4 BTC to the bid order at precisely the same time that they add to the sell order, thus it "looks' like more volume is getting pumped through. Someone must be paying through the nose in trading fees to do this.

Thats an issue of clarkmoody´s site, happened to me sometimes too.
Have nothing to do with bots.
Use i286(free), there is no such problem: http://trading.i286.org/mtgox/?item=btc¤cy=usd
or rtbtc.com (cost ~0.09BTC/month)

If it was MtGox they'd just be spending their own money while increasing volume. Hmmm. September 03, 2013, 04:11:03 PM
