    Its kinda too late now

    Some people were buying up to 300,000 BTC back in old days which probably costed 40k-100k

        coinbase limits you to 10 btc per day

        you'd have to get verified with bitstamp, campbx or btc-e to buy $40k worth at once

        there is also localbitcoins to buy smaller amounts quickly

                Apparently China just found out about this.

                    Ebay for Bitcoins is a joke. Why would anyone by from there when it's much quicker and safer to buy from other sources.

                      $660... fucking hell.

                      I have some, and take them as payment for our sites, but I never, ever thought it would get this high. Go China.

                              Sure you can. I will sell my personal bitcoins in blocks of up to 100 BTC at market price, as long as it's over $600 at the time. Contact me to set it up.

                                $780 is mtgox price

                                but if you're selling, converting yuan to your currency is probably most profitable

                                btcchina.com = 5658 yuan = 928 USD

                                    How are you doing this? Are they just paying you first? I have 600 to sell and the guy I have been working with has a lot more and I own 1/3 of those.

                                          Escrow, through my attorney. You're asking for trouble if you do it any other way.

                                              why are u selling when they are skyrocketing - just hit 900?

                                                That's the time to sell, when the price is going parabolic. Buy low, sell high!

                                                  Absolutely agreed
                                                  I'd be selling the good holy fuck out of mine
                                                  I'd sell into a spike like this no matter what
                                                  Anyone buying right now is outright insane

                                                              Almost ALL of the volume this week was between $65 and $280
                                                              How it is suddenly supposed to maintain the $500 level is beyond me but I am no bitcoin expert either

                                                                I don't trust any of the exchanges but it's the easiest way for me to buy and sell so I reluctantly use them

                                                                      It takes over a month for them to transfer your money, MtGox claim it's due to limits imposed by their bank(s). Others believe they don't have enough money in their accounts to make the transfers so they need to wait until people make deposits and use that money for withdrawals and they'll string people along for as long as they can.

If you are holding bitcoins and profiting on the coat-tails of somebody else's manipulation of the market, the smart move would be to take some profit now while you can because there are so many things that can come and bite you on the ass over this, and a market that can be manipulated up so high so quickly on something so flimsy as china discovering bitcoin leading to a massive increase in demand, can just as easily come crashing down when the Chinese government puts their 2 cents in.

You did need some bikkies in the bank though, one trade I saw required around $6k but netted only around $120 in profit.

No business owner wants to be gambling on every sale - that's for speculators.

                                                                                    When the local mainstream news is talking about the massive spikes, that's pretty much the time to sell into the retail mom and pop folk that come in. The chart is almost vertical - you buy the rumor sell the news. Sure dollar cost average while you sell down so you don't sell way too early in a spike but the whole point is to buy low sell high, by the time things have already exploded by buying in you're more likely going to be the one left holding the bag. The skyrocket is more the rise from 100 to 900, it's highly, highly highly unlikely to go from 900 to 8000 in the next month so you take real profits and run. Like playing poker, if you look around the room and can't tell who the fish is, it's you.

                                                                                    Trying to pick bottom leaves dirty fingers, but trying to pick top is almost as bad. I'm just annoyed they killed BTC CFDs. Heh with some leverage and guaranteed stops this last appreciation would have been epic.
                                                                                    I'd be looking for consolidation at the ~$300+ level for a while before the next leg up but I'm FAR from an expert on BTC, this is just general trader paint by numbers stuff. I dunno, I learned a while ago not to get greedy on anything too volatile.. You just slowly derisk your position by selling down in tranches you're happy with. The 200% profit tranches look stupid when it keeps going up and you're selling 1000% profit tranches but they look a hell of a lot smarter than -50% tranches..

                                                                                    It could go a lot higher of course, just I guess some people at hitting their "happy to sell, won't cry too much about the possibility of it doubling from here because at least I've taken the certainty of 300%, 400%, 500% etc" profits.

                                                                                            It takes over a month for them to transfer your money, MtGox claim it's due to limits imposed by their bank(s). Others believe they don't have enough money in their accounts to make the transfers so they need to wait until people make deposits and use that money for withdrawals and they'll string people along for as long as they can.
                                                                                            but but, doesn't that sound like a ponzi scheme? which according to all the bitcoin enthousiasts it most likely is not??

                                                                                            all these numbers sound great, but if there is no way to cash out? then what?

                                                                                                Putting your money into the exchanges is the riskiest part of Bitcoin trading, BTC-e & Bitstamp are pretty prompt with payment but then again they are based in Russia & Slovenia.

                                                                                                Then it comes down to trust, do you trust a company that has a fake company address, fake WHOIS domain info etc

                                                                                                The whole thing is shady as fuck but it's no different than any new industry, takes years for legitimacy to take hold.

                                                                                                In the meantime it's a case of weighing up the risk Vs reward
