This! Thanks!

Confirmed
http://mtgox.com/login works. Phew! Got to panic dump some coins in light of this coinlab news. I could kiss you! Or tip you if you put your bitcoin address in your sig.
I'm worried about them freezing funds in the USA as a result of the lawsuit, though I don't know how likely that is.
Well, I aim for 3% increase in BTC volume per day, so since I have just bought the BTC at $112.5, it's not worth cutting my losses at $110, as it will take longer to recover them.
Anyway, the downward trend seems to have lost momentum, and is turning back upwards.
I'm trying to make my initial buy-in of 6.2 bitcoins* into enough to quit work - I'm at 16.7 now, after 2.5 weeks, so eventually I will manage it - if only I can purchase and sell at the right time for once.
I'd rather take my time, and tread carefully. I have slipped back too many times this week (I had 22.5 BTC at one point, then held cash due to a badly timed sell, as it shot up on the 3rd while I was asleep. I tried to recover by buying in late, just as it peaked again - I lost about $500 that day)
The thing is, I have very limited resources, and I really don't think it will drop much below $110 again any time soon, so I'd rather not risk it.
* I bought those (literally) 15 minutes before it plunged from $250....
I hear ya man. I bought in with 5 btc at 183. Then I was in denial the entire time it plunged and didn't sell.

Don't sell. Put them away for 1 year.
I initially bought in at 92 and continued to buy all the way up to 183. I believe in the long term potential of bitcoin and think one day it will easily be worthy $500+, but I also want to prepare for the worst, just in case something happens and BTC goes completely dead. I am holding on the about half of my total BTC and playing day trader with the rest, hoping to win back some profit.
LOL, I spent about $60k when word of this delay started to emerge last week. This is money I've been sitting on for over a month waiting for lower prices.
I suspect this is the only reason why the price went up to $113 recently - people who were paying attention knew something was wrong and decided to get out of Gox.
I expect to see lots of big BTC purchases very soon.
I agree. I also think many people will be a bit freaked out realizing that many BTC exchanges can do something like this or completely go under (e.g. bitfloor, bitcoin-24) and will be cashing out into fiat. I expect an inflation in price as people buy from Gox followed by a dip as people dump for fiat on other exchanges.
seems like a lot of sell pressure at the moment.
Any good android market watcher apps?
The last one I tried ran so hot and drained the battery in an hour. I think it must have been trying to mine on my phone! ...I just watch preev.com on my phone.
This is the one I use and I have not had any problems with it. You can set the frequency it updates which helps conserve battery. You can also set an alarm to notify you it the price has changed by x%.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=br.eti.fml.satoshiWhere are people thinking the bottom for today is? Right now on Gox we have some walls to get to 92, and a large wall to get to 90.
doesn't look like it's correct.
It doesn't show up on Bitcoinity neither... Still, look at derpinheimer screenshot, maybe a bug of the tool he was using to follow the market?
Dumping 2k coins on Campbx is too retarded to be true, they would be selling all of them for like $50k, LOL
before going to sleep last night I set up buys on CampBX going down to $65 in case there was a panic sell off. They did not fill, so I'm thinking this was a glitch in tracking software.
And..... boom goes the dynamite.
Testing 100 again...
I wonder about when difficulty spikes will many people turn their ASICS toward mining SHA based altcoins like PPC and TRC as they can no longer compete with the professional farms.
I took the majority of my funds off Gox a while ago but keep a coin or two there to play with. I have an unverified account, and to test out this FUD I just withdrew 0.145 BTC with no problems.
Right now the transaction is still unconfirmed. Edit: It is now confirmed in my other wallet.

Possibly that huge wall on Gox is putting a damper on things for now. Maybe people just need a break after the ATH.
A bit of healthy sideways action for now it seems
