RUM AND CARROTS: A PIRATE LIFE FOR ME
At least we seem to be fighting around the $60-$80 range. To be honest, had this been 3 weeks ago we would all been ecstatic to be here. So lets keep it in perspective.

This has been one wild week... I've been dealing with calls and emails nearly 24 hours a day. Managed to keep most of the panic sells between old and new clients and off the market.

So has the panic stopped?  Are we going to see more upwards activity again? Wink

Fundamentally nothing has changed, it is my opinion that the crash was caused by gox and those who sold into the lag, only to see their market orders execute much lower than expected. I currently have >$15M waiting to buy, however the vast majority will be off exchange. Many of these private trades are at individually negotiated prices, sometimes significantly different from market.

So you operate the biggest Bitcoin dark pool,  Loaded? Wink

Also, could someone please tell me what the green line represents exactly?

The green line is weird on bitcoinium.  It seems to be the price rounded to the nearest whole dollar price.  See how it steps from one dollar to the next, never going part way between dollars?

Edit: you can see the effect even better here:


See how the line steps either side of the $67.5 gridline?

It seems to relate to the 3 decimal places at the top. Usually it simply shows xx.000 but occasionally it will show correct values. Example:

So my question is how influential are Adam's wall threads on the market?  Was the settling of the brief uncertainty as to whether we were going to a new thread, to carrying on with the old or both the sign the market needed to have the confidence to start buying in earnest again?  Will Adam's decision to go with the new the sign the market needed to no longer worry about going below $50?

Thank you Adam for rescuing the Bitcoin market Grin

On an (almost) serious note, thanks for flipping over to a new thread and for opening it to off topic too Smiley  I hope the new influx of bitcaintalk members (and us lot who may sometimes be prone to just post anything) won't make it impractically unwieldy too quickly.

It's easy. If you want to buy a million dollars worth of coins, you're probably pretty smart and know what you're doing. And if you know what you're doing, then you don't try to buy them by putting one order in the order book at one price thats been beaten through several times in the last 24 hours.

Sure, but if you have a wall of 1 million, then you must have the money back it up, no?
