Biggest disparity I have yet seen.

Bitstamp - $105.75
MtGox - $112.20

$6.45 difference, quite telling considering todays news.

I'm a former gox user and now a bitstamp user. To be honest- I trade on Bitstamp because I'm not interested in the drama at Gox and I'm not interested in squeezing every last satoshi of profit out of every price swing. I have a feeling a large number of Bitstamp users feel the same. We will buy and sell when the price suits our interests, but the low volume is just fine. While Gox is $6 above stamp, it feels ephemeral- I'm more convinced it's someone manipulating the market into people raising their buy orders, just to dump on them big time. It's like a cycle. I'm more then happy to sit at $6 below in exchange for a calmer market.
i love it how your user pic mirrors the satisfaction in your comment Smiley
