Again, this market is too small for this not to happen pretty regularly.  People like to say, "You can mostly ignore market depth", but the fact is that most people do not ignore market depth, and the fact that most people don't ignore it, compels people playing in the market to react based on depth changes, which compels other people to react.  This is not going to change until there are many, many more big players than there are right now.


I don't know how many times I've said that to people.  This isn't the stock market!

The manipulator speaks. He clearly has access to the bitcoins to put up a huge wall.

Everyone wishes they had the power of the Federal Reserve Corporation to stabilize an economy on their own.

Gasp!  We solved it.

"Yes I am a pirate, 200 years too late."
C'mon, pirate, fess up, it's you, isn't it?

I dabble in trading, but more importantly look to stabilize our precious commodity.  It's my hope that one day we can all say we were here at the beginning.  Smiley

Also, Bitcoin is super silver.

Internalize that, everyone.  It's important.  C'mon, pirate, fess up, it's you, isn't it?

It's a gamble, plain and simple.


A psychological gamble.

Given:
You know there are people that exist with millions of dollars and blow it like Kim Dotcom
You know there are people that exist like Kim Dotcom that have already bought into the game and looking to sell
You know there are 8,000,000 bitcoins
You know there will be some big UPS and big DOWNS.
You know the big boys will fuck with the charts with walls and manipulations to mess with your head.



Call their bluff or don't.
Win some, lose some
Win all, win nothing.
Win none, lose all.


Shit, I saw the silver drop a $1.00 in a few seconds. Imagine what it takes to move a market of that magnitude. Shocked

I was more amazed that the mtgoxlive and clark moody didn't lock up during the ordeal.




Edit: oh great.... it locks up when nothing is happening.



Edit: it's working again



Edit: don't blink

Some serious manipulation is going on right now Smiley

My guess?  As this gains more momentum we fall below $5, and then we'll see a flurry of buying as people try to snatch up more coins in the hope that the price will break the insanely strong resistance around $7.00 and $7.20, but we won't; the price probably won't make a new high beyond $6.80.

I am really hoping this wall gets gobbled up before they can withdraw it. These days the chances of that happening are way better than a few months back.

The wall strategy will will continue to work in this market until it gets a lot bigger. 

You are right but its still a risk for the builder as they never know when a bigger shark will enter the pond until its to late, and the way people are not panicking so much lately a bigger shark may see it as a nice bite, instead of sitting back slowly nibbling to avoid slippage. What I would like to see, is some comeuppance of 'oh shit I am not the biggest fish here anymore'.
So very true and there is not much behind this wall should it fall.
