Looking at the buy/sell orders at crypsty it look as if there could be a pump soon. big buy orders at 17 and 18 holding the price and huge sell orders at 30, 50, 67, 71. What do you guys think?
Maybe. A Common manipulation strategy by those with 'big money' however is to float huge orders and fill the book with 'artificial buys' that they have no intention of filling. They just want people to try to buy in front of the large sized orders (all the while they are selling to these people), and then after satisfying enough sales to ensure a decent profit, the large money instantly cancels all the stacked orders you see at 17 & 18. This causes the people watching the trading closely to panic and sell into the 16, 15, 14 etc satoshi. The 'big money' may even help by selling more size and driving it down to their waiting bid at 12 Satoshi. Then they put all the coins they sold at 20-13 Satoshi as one large buy at 12 Satoshi, and wait for the 'average investor' to panic sell to them back the coins they bought higher at 12 satoshi level.
Then *Rinse & Repeat*
Not everything is as it seems, there are some sharks out there people ;-)
