Re: Why Most Traders Will Fail, and How to Fix it

Good post,

I agree as well, most of the traders in the marketplace are very much noobs and have not even done the due diligence of reaserching what all those spikey lines mean.

Knowledge is power.

for someone who's thinking of taking trading a bit more seriously, where would you suggest to get the best info? traditional market/forex books, webinars, etc? any tips for good classes?

in this interview with charlie shrem, he said the bank told him in so many words btc will be a competitor to banks so they will make it difficult for business accounts. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tWtTsvmHJg

guess now it might be spilling over to user accounts ..

Anyone know just how heavy the selling was?
There seems to be a bit of a hole in the data at bitcoinwisdom between 19:48 and 21:02 CET. Data seemed screwed during that time, but every now and then some very weird volume sizes showed ...

this might explain if you're referring to mtgox

i looking at this looping on btccharts, this is some funny shit going on. can you imagine if this started happening on nasdaq or nyse, lmfao

"funny shit" happens an nasdaq, nyse et al all the time, they hide it in plain sight.

this is an excellent documentary about high frequency trading: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEAGdwHXfLQ

some totally unexplained flash crashes happened because these algos operate in complex systems.

Have you recently checked the price of bitcoin...

It's scaring me..

on what exchange? there's something really strange going on with MtGox at the moment; just refresh and see all the buy orders reappear - it's on some kind of loop or something. i have no idea what can cause it to do this ..

anyone know what's wrong? api?

Trace Mayer makes a good point when he says if only 1% of all off-shore money was moved to bitcoin, each coin would be worth 2.8 million

Re: Blockchain growing exponentially?

Want to use bitcoin? OK:

Download vanitygen.exe

./vanitygen.exe 1CIMINE
output:
public key: 1CIMINE23HssO34H9FjsduFq3HapP32jLjfi3
private key 5J39H40h48hwh2H3gJ30wdfFkh23biedfhFksdhFaAb

Send Bitcoin to public key.

When you need to spend, import keys to blockchain.info and send them. Generate new keys. Send remaining BTC to new public key. Keep in cold storage. (or keep a small amount for spending at an online wallet, the rest in cold storage)

hey Elwar - I was wondering about this yesterday. Whats the probability that the vanitygen would generate an already existing address? Set up a farm to run these programs, generate addresses and check their balances?

Wait until females discover they can buy shopping things using bitcoins.  When you see shoe and handbag stores using bitcoin the female user population will explode.

Or wait until they find a Bitcoin sugardaddy. Make sure  to keep your BTC balances to yourself, peeps haha.

wonder why there's not many women involved? it's mostly because of douchy posts like this.

i'm female and i have more BTC than any other developers in my office (which I've been trying to convince them to buy/mine for ages. sucks for them)

30 btw, javascript/RoR dev

Married guys should jump all over to the idea of bitcoins, it's another great use for cryptos. Wives these days aren't easy to control, not like the good old times, 19th century, oh well, technology comes to rescue. You guys should use 1) DNA analysis to find out who the real father is and now 2) use bitcoins to give a middle finger to an unfaithful wife in case of divorce. Attack and defense mechanisms parallel development, so to say. What other technological achievements progress can bring us? We can only dream and embrace them as they come. Stay tuned.

In western societies there are less and less incentives for men to get married these days. But if you do, at least do it right, with the technology on your side.

easy on the woman bashing.

ps - if she married him for his money, be probably married her for her t&a. risky move; you'll probably get burned
