But there is something that I can't understand in your trade list: at minute 06:54:00 (for example) you sold a lot of wolf between 0.001-0.00107 and, at the same time, bought another lot between 0.00154-0.001175. What was your reason to sell cheap and buy expensive?
If, by selling cheap, your goal was to decrease the market price, I think that your best next move would have been to buy your own cheap orders - seems the ideal way to reach the goal without losing anything.
But buying, instead, higher orders would increase back the market price, annihilating your first move and also making a loss for you. So, where is the gain?!
Or have you acted this way just to encourage other traders to play more active and to make the game more funny (as you promised)?
I was hoping to achieve three things:
1) Open up a spread in which the active traders could trade more freely
2) Make the game more fun
3) Slowly move the price up in a rolling fashion, I'd partly hoped more people had brought btc on the day or were actively trading and would put up buy orders also.
Failing that though, a goal was to have a sentiment among traders or "somebody dumped low but the dev is still buying, it's not over yet, I won't sell low" (which would lead to them placing sell orders and jamming up the sell side again if no weight was added to the buy side).
As a private trader, I frequently
place orders to re buy everything I've sold at a price point lower, so if I sell at 0.0011, 0.0012, 0.0013, I will place buy orders at 0.00105, 0.00115, 0.00125, this keeps the price moving upwards, and ensures I make a gain even if a dump happens. I'd hoped to see some of this on insanity sunday, adding weight to the buy side which garners buy support and lifts the price higher.
