The lag at Mt.Gox is unacceptable, although i think it saves us from a total fire sale.

I just dont see how they can lag. The volume of orders could be done faster if it were written by hand in a ledger by a single person who then copied it all online to a spreadsheet. Even then it wouldn't be lag.

If you are selling coins, putting up an ask wall is just doing the exact same thing in the other direction. And you get to absorb some of the bounce back. (Noob here, correct me if I'm wrong)

Yeah but if the market just crashed 25%, you have 200k USD of BTC on MtGox, your first thought is "Put up 1.5k ask walls at $115 $118 $120?". You're just deterring a bounce back. If you're panic selling, you'd just sell them. And within 60 seconds of the coin dump? Who see's a crash and walls up the bottom? The size and aggressiveness of those ask walls isn't from people looking to sell into the bounce back. You want it to bounce back, your BTC is worth more. The only thing they do is help keep the price down.

I don't care to speculate what they're there for, I only know that when they show up, the price goes down. A manipulated crash is still a crash.

Asks rising dramatically, bulls failing to get back past 120.

Beyond wanting to limit a bounce back, why else would someone put up 2-3-4k ask walls right after a sharp decline, right on the edge. They were way too big, way too consolidated to be bots. There were still enough bids walls if you actually wanted to sell you could have. Not to mention the ask walls came up right after the final coin dump to 105-110. You can explain away lots of coins being sold. I find it hard to explain away people aggressively pushing the ask wall preventing any serious bounce back.

Hush..

There's plenty of bid walls above 100. If anyone wants to sell, they can quite easily. Lag under a minute is pretty minor for MtGox.

I haven't seen it over 2 minutes yet. I don't consider that serious lag compared to what it was before.

This is a ~~sucker rally~~ dead cat bounce, we will not cross $125 before $100.

Might be, but nobody with half brain gives a shit about your predictions anyway.

To be honest, I am wondering why your ignore tag is not yet yellow considering your lack of content, and fixation on me.

Maybe because people don't like you and enjoy what I write to you.

Not that I would remotely care about a color of my ignore button though.

don't be hating in my thread.

sorry mate, I know I shouldn't, I'm just sick of his crap.

I'd say 87, but, since this is bitcoin after all, I'm going to say mid-seventies.
