mjr_: i know that whole group is on a trip at the moment

gribble: Error: "id" is not a valid command.
thestringpuller: "mircea, if you were half as smart as you think you are, you wouldn't confuse coinbase and coinlab. you'd also have invented antigravity and a time machine, but that's beside the point." - whatcha have to say about that mr. popescu?
Bugpowde_: Such a presumption that the question is worth discussion!
jurov: anyway based on my spreadsheet shenanigans, the breakeven point is a bit different from real profitability

mircea_popescu: a well.
kakobrekla: take of a zero.
Bugpowder: just waiting for coins to go up a bit more...
Bugpowder: got a USB stick for that wallet
mircea_popescu: well it was a good theory, but i don't think it meets the data so far
mircea_popescu: moreover, there was a huge differential for days till yest
Bugpowder: A lot of the option purchases occur when there is a large divergence between realtime spot price and 24hprc
mircea_popescu: also the crazyspike pre-A does sort of predict
mircea_popescu: looking at it roughly : A totally took a bite of concrete, B sort of predicted something, but muchkly exaggerated.
mircea_popescu: there's a very speciffic=looking graph of the options breakeven points if you calc them all out
mircea_popescu: draw the graph if you will, it's a symetrical butterfly.
mircea_popescu: tell you what, if you promise to write a good statistical analysis and publish it i'll send you the ~300 datapoints on that graph
Bugpowder: Is the OIX the like CO2? A trailing indicator?
Bugpowder: like at this time horizion out, even a 100-0 call put ratio can only push the OIX so high dependent on the call price
mircea_popescu: actually, there was a point where the oix was pushed to like 90
Bugpowder: there is, of course, a limit to how far a put or call imbalance can push the OIX
mircea_popescu: with a little luck the comment'll get more upvotes than the article itself
mircea_popescu: in other news, romanian politics (in english) : http://trilema.com/2013/no-seriously-not-much-of-a-priority-anymore/
mircea_popescu: it's one of those cases where his point is like the puss in a zit
mircea_popescu: what's a "bearish weekly high" ?!
Bugpowder: Yah that dude has a little internet vote button
mircea_popescu: Bitcoins price sentiment at a bearish weekly high, still twice as many believe in higher prices within 6 months. You agree? (self.Bitcoin)
mircea_popescu: who;'s got a reddit acct ? vote the man's story!
mircea_popescu: i read that as a bonus vest originally
Bugpowder: Maybe this is a catchier headline... http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/19jdmw/bitcoin_options_index_oix_price_sentiment/
mircea_popescu: what a thread killer.
mircea_popescu: try ditching your dns service provided by yiour isp and use google instead for a day
mircea_popescu: there's a filter ?
mjr_: is there a unicode character for bitcoin yet?

topace_: im _almost_ ready to do a test :)
topace_: mircea_popescu: in the push receipt, quantity will be split with a thousands separator right? like 1`456`231 ?
mircea_popescu: because i am looking for a ltc broker.
ThickAsThieves: i'm a noob
ThickAsThieves: like right now 5000ltc doesnt make a big dent
ThickAsThieves: even a 5000ltc buy at the right time of day sways the price for a while
mircea_popescu: it's unlikely you'd make a oix bet that's too big in ltc, because ltc is kinda small.
ThickAsThieves: i think there's a lot of potential for playing ltc assets and ltc in general against btc
mircea_popescu: ThickAsThieves in a sense. it takes the bot out of the offer market, so he might be able to offer them back at w/e price suits him
mircea_popescu: actually it would prolly make a wunderbar hedge for anchoring tyhings like ltc
mircea_popescu: maybe a decent idea for a PT, but i'd be loath to introduce it to mpex, have someone dump 5k on it
error4733: ? i'm still drunk ? those order should normlay got a [+]
Bugpowder: He will exit for a 30% loss
mircea_popescu: mil and a half. somehow it doesn't look like much at all.
mircea_popescu: true that it's a long (5 week) month
mircea_popescu: dude if we have a new max in feb and break 50 in march...
error4733: thanks ;) i told you i'm a noob hehe
mircea_popescu: on just a little under 37 i think
error4733: still a noob for this kind of stuff
mircea_popescu: it may be dog, but it's a bitch for translators.
Chaang-Noi: what lawyer anywhere would think an unregistered stock exchange in fake internet money was a good idea??
mircea_popescu: BitHub did you get a signed paper and everything ?
mircea_popescu: from what i recall you got really hot and bothered because you missent something like a 1 btc
Chaang-Noi: seems like a cover to spend it..
mircea_popescu: a well. we live, we clarify.
mircea_popescu: like a one off sort of thing. (he missed out on it too)
mircea_popescu: a, a that.
mircea_popescu: Chaang-Noi what you're probably thinking about is the fact that if you trade worth somethign like a few k's worth you make your mpex reg fee back out of the fees difference.
mircea_popescu: "[WTB] $ Get Me a Digital File(s) From the Internet $ johnniewalker"
Chaang-Noi: mp, i was told if we deposit 1000 btc on mpex we get a free account. true or not?
ThickAsThieves: using a vendor?
mircea_popescu: this is a major problem going forward actually.
mircea_popescu: in general it's just a way to equivocate ownership, which practically works as a way for the operator to steal equity.
mircea_popescu: except each actual share gets a further .3 from the retainment
mircea_popescu: i think people love gambling a liot more than anyone suspects
ThickAsThieves: cry me a river
ThickAsThieves: also, as mp pointed out, if it was a higher ratio bet
Chaang-Noi: well people should not make a bet when weight is only 75 out of 100,000
Chaang-Noi: well, they lost just a bit
mircea_popescu: actually a pretty good read.
ThickAsThieves: works fine in a diff browser
mod6: they're something of a unicorn methinks
gribble: Error: "bc,stat" is not a valid command.
Bowjob: might fetch quite a price at sotheby's
