Well, I have just (20 Minutes ago) sold my BTC on bitstamp at 118.97, looking how its a high for bitstamp in the last days, and mt.gox is relatively low (119 to 122.5 is a price difference of only 3.5).
Time will tell me (quite shortly) whether it was wise, as I can rebuy cheaper, or dumb because I have to buy in again at the same price.
The good thing is that the price can't really run away (since there are endlessly many sell offers before it reaches 120).

My plans are ruined at BitStamp for the moment. Guess I'll just sit back and watch.
2800 BTC before we go over 120. Buy wall is growing slightly and the ask wall is coming down.
What plans? Continually sell at 118.xx and buy again at 117.xx to lower your fee cost?

Sorry, pure offtopic, but here is a very cool video about mining and Bitcoin. 
"mining gets harder every 10 minutes" statement is a bit off though.

often i find myself wishing bitcoin would crash hard so i could buy like a mad fool again
because lots of us have that idea, it will never crash to the levels you wish - unless bitcoin fundamentals
are done with.
I don't have any worries about fundamentals. One worry that quite a few people have however is an outright attack by government. As stated on the recent (#8) "Let's talk BTC podcast" if an attack is to be successful, it needs to happen relatively soon. Before we know it (my guess is by late this year, early next) BTC use is going to be much much bigger than currently. The bigger it's acceptance into mainstream the smaller its chances of stoppage. Even if they came after it now (and I don't mean some minor FinCen stuff) it would still continue I'm sure, but it would really hurt things.
Anyway, for a real big attack to happen it would have to involve something quite strong/profound/etc. and I just don't see that happen. There just isn't a reason for that and it is hard to imagine something in the way of justification. The bankers have enough on their hands propping up collapsing currencies. Really, BTC is rather a compliment in the short term, but then again, maybe banksters don't want recovery?

leverage? not sure that is for me. I have a lot to learn yet and a special ability to sell low and buy high.
You said you use a stop-loss. I was indirect asking: where do you trade and put a stop loss.
Oh, I have a small bot.

I couldn't help notice the following statement: "I could careless what people on these boards think"
1st observation: it's care less not careless
2nd observation: if you don't care what people think, then why are you posting on a forum? I mean, it's not like you're here to people watch... :/
just saying...

An observation
If you're going to be a pedant at least get it right ...
Its 'I couldn't care less'
2nd 'observation' of yours makes no sense to me ... people have a multitiude of reasons for reading and posting on forums

often i find myself wishing bitcoin would crash hard so i could buy like a mad fool again
It was at $266.
When is this considered a buying opportunity?
I bought some at $80 but that is way higher than I paid for most of my Bitcoins and way higher than it was only a few short months ago. Give it some time
I got a few more at 80 too, not as much as i should have
I always make the same mistake, i never send enough funds!

Funny how suddenly the Bitstamp wall is more interesting to follow than the MtGox wall.
I know right. Fiends for action.
Hopefully it's a sign of the times. It is good for Bitcoin if Gox loses it's dominance.

Edit: Well...there goes that 500BTC over on Bitstamp.
BOOM!
That's what I experienced in the past with Bitstamp. There is much hidden bid-power.

Yeah and another 200+ just got eaten. My Bitcoinity sounds like a freaking woodpecker over here.
We're pushing 119 now. Jump to:
