Sometimes the candles stop coming:

I'm sorry, I cannot understand 'stop coming'. Trades is not received or CandleStick is not drawing, or trades does not receive for a short time or the trades doesn't receive anymore?
--
just found there is another text under the image.
I cannot reproduce the issue. Let's see if there is other people met the issue.


The trades stop showing up and candles stop appearing, but the walls continue to move. It must be refreshed to work again.

As for the second issue, it's been around for a long time. I've noticed it with Firefox, Chrome and my iPod. I have to reload the cache (ctrl + r) to fix it when it happens.

-update-

I tried putting my computer to sleep for a couple minutes, and Chrome skipped two candles:

Chrome:

Also, when waking up my computer, often times the chart doesn't load candles that appeared during that time, so there's a gap.

The ticker is freezing on me with Gox almost immediately.

Two feature requests while I'm here:
  • A count down until the current candle closes.
  • Price alerts with alarms

no its artificially high, it wont retain this price, it has to get cheaper

People assume that it's artificially high because of people buying bitcoin to get their money out elsewhere, but that doesn't fit because the price isn't unnaturally low on other exchanges. Bitstamp is acting as it usually does, at least it was a few days ago, staying about a 3-5 dollar distance below. It has been volatile though, because of some large whales pushing the price around, blowing lots of stops, and generally shooting the gun too soon over and over.

The reason Bitstamp is usually lower is because it receives less initial deposits of cash, and because Bitfinex allows shorting through them, which allows for selling other people's coins in hope of buying them back lower.

The reason BTC-e is low, is because of the altcoins they have, such as litecoin, which is big right now. This saturates their market. They're about as low as they usually are.

As for the others, I do not know, could be any reason for why they have the price they do.

Majority census statistically is correct more often than not, but I've seen majority censuses be dead wrong before. I think this will be one of those times. This is one of those listless stable times, that gives birth to large rises at some point, that the majority do not initially expect.

The strong hands are accumulating, the longer we're at this point, the more likely it is we are to rise.

This is similar to what it was like at around 120, before it began rising to a high of 136.
Did you settle your debt?

Not yet, if must be nosy and know about it.

I'll take that as an indicator of how strong the "strong hands" really are, ok?

Great, now this has turned into ad hominem.

If you are counting on BTC to go up to settle your debt then you have a problem.

I'm not, now please mind your own business. I would profit equally if the market went or up or down. I'm calling it how I see it.

And they will be met with buys.

After it reaches the bottom.

97 is acting very similar to 100 right now. It can be broken temporarily once in a while, but then it's pushed back.

There's the adoption rate, and then there's the hoarding percentage.
The higher the percentage of hoarders, who are not weak hands, the more upward pressure there is, as we can see now. So even if the market looks bearish to the weak hands, it won't go down nearly as easily with the strong hand hoarders/investors, who look at the more long-term, or are not easily shaken.

Bitcoin can either go up from adoption, traders, or investors.

If there's an influx of adoption, there is increased demand

If the traders think the market will go up, there is increased demand

If the investors think the price will go up in the long-term, there is increased demand.

It's the weak hands that push the price down (and largely responsible for volatility). The strong hands hold the market up, and prevent it from going to the floor so easily.

The strong hands do nothing, its the big buyers who prevented the slide from continuing and going to the floor.

It's because they did nothing that the buyers were able to prevent it from sliding to the floor. They would be weak hands if they sold.

Bitcoin grows on reducing its use.. yeah, seems legit.

The more people horde, the more bitcoin goes up. This is a speculative market, so hording is a good thing, until adoption speeds up. (In which case we can expect another bubble, which may not be too far off.)

Not much longer now. The 12 hour chart is unbelievably bullish. The bears in the low 100s are going to be massacred.

12 hour chart? massacred? really?

I agree, everything thing I have is screaming upward, that this is only just the beginning.

1000 bid order is popping up desperately trying to push it up over 100.

It just doesn't stop. At face value they want it up over 100, or someone is just playing games...

It's not some conspiracy, I'm sick and tired of newbs thinking the market is heavily manipulated because it doesn't go where they themselves baselessly predicted.

Man, that isn't so nice to say. Not nice to try to group people by using words like conspiracy either - I don't see the connection.
Who said anything about a conspiracy? (which means 2 or more individuals working together - that was not implied). Conspiracy and other name-calling (e.g. tin foil wearing) unfortunately, has become a word to discredit future digging.

The larger point is the point made, which you skipped over and grouped as conspiracy, not to mention name called.

The poster brought up someone flashing a 1000 BTC buy, why not address what that could mean?


In general, people assume it's more than one person doing the manipulation, that's why I addressed it as a conspiracy. Although there's always the rich lone gunman trope that's not too far off.

Anyways, there's always walls, and many whales are not so bright. Some think they can manipulate the market, but chances are, people will try calling what they think is a bluff. Then there's the genuine whales who places large bid/ask walls in hope that they actually gets quickly filled, for better or for worse, which I think is likely the case here. But some people might think it's a bluff and sell into it.

As for whales with large orders, they think the market will go in a direction, and they want to cause a chain reaction by shifting their weight around. They aren't out to push the market up just a little then sell, they're in it for the more mid-term/long-term, unless they start to panic.

Most whales only place small orders, unless something big is happening.

Whales can't change the overall trend, unless they had millions, and timed everything perfectly, to include the correct wave counts, etc. This would likely be a great loss to them. It's better for them to go with the trend, and where the market is willing to go.

hihgher highs, higher lows. shortterm uptrend. let's see for how long... 105 should be interesting



I think you need to zoom out a bit! Smiley

All I see is a 2nd failed attempt to climb over $100 within the last week.

By zooming out, you lose clarity. Just like letters can fog up and look like other letters when looked at from a distance. Bistamp isn't budging, hidden divergence set up, too many people in fiat, minimal selling force.
