    I dont have any yet, should I wait for a drop and get in ?

    I wish there was an easy way to buy online. It seems I gotta go to the bank

    Pumped a lazy AUD $3 grand into Bitcoins this evening via bank transfer via a vendor on Localbitcoins.com. Might as well add some additional Bitcoins, just for added kicks in the wild west of currency :D Even if there is a huge correction, this things things going to rocket during future financial Cyprus type events, IMO.

    Looks like my graph from a few pages back was not that bad after all!

    Chart is saying it should head higher... correction should be small at this stage.

    I tried today at $262USD/BTC on BTC-E, it dipped a little then rocketed back up......ooohhh shittttt...jumped back on the train. It probably cost me $300 or so for my fruitless troubles. I'll sit tight, $1000/BTC will happen I'm sure, even if it takes a couple of years more. It could take weeks.

    I sold my entire trading parcel at $320 on Gox.

    Hoping for $281 rebuy.

    I just trade for more BTC now, don't want to cash out.

    Sold some at $207, $232, $264, $297. Accidentally sold a bunch at ~$300 during dinner by leaving a sell trade open. Given up trying to pick a top - but the funny thing is, even as I'm selling, the value of my remaining BTC is hovering around the same fiat value, and there's a pile of fiat building up alongside of it.

    Target is still parity with gold though - every time I sold in the last 48 hours, I was expecting to be able to buy back in, and only managed a few times.

    Been asked for before... if there's enough interest in the coming weeks, might happen.
