Relationship between bitcointalk.org activity and bitcoin price.

Normalization:
Bitcoin Price(1)
Bitcointalk Posts(1/100)
Bitcointalk Registrations(1/10)
Bitcointalk PageViews(1/10000)

EDIT:
Thinking behind this:
Since bitcointalk is the major source of bitcoin information, I expected that the popularity of bitcoin would be related to the increase/decrease in activity on the forum. Now if the popularity of bitcoin increases, more people are expected to know about bitcoin, maybe some like the idea and buy bitcoins leading to higher bitcoin prices.

I have just finished developing everything and started analyzing the charts. One can see some correlation between the number of registration here vs price especially on a larger time scale, but other correlations are not obvious if any.

Anyways I though it would be cool to check it , so shared here.

This forum has contributed a lot to the bitcoin community and for alt coins too, but i would not base on the number of registration because it does not show the real number of users.
