19K by tonight?
You mean now
And back down to 16.8k yeah I need to stop watching before I drive myself crazy.
Me too. But just bought some more when it dipped. I feel good.
How can I buy dips and sell highs when Coinbase/GDAX are this unstable?! 
GDAX blows and usually off by a bit so they do make it fun to arbitrage trade with 0% fees. They always operate at a premium too and they hedge goofy trading between their Coinbase buys and their market buys. I am not convinced their hotwallet is actually able to keep up since if you send transactions out of there, it can take hours to even show up on the network.
Iād have to agree after watching their performance over the past few hours. There was a 30+ min delay and all of a sudden GDAX dropped to ~$15.2k as well. I was all set to buy and then their shit broke, lol.
gdax is fubar :lol:
Actually worked well though mine sold on some 15k stop I had and I bought back in lower
Thats normal GDAX things. Get used to the site being offline and unable to input trades in. That is why I am not sure how anyone would ever want to margin trade there since any big surge you can be stuck not able to add margin to your positions. Best thing is if you have limit orders in the pivot points and can catch the waterfall of margin liquidations, you can get filled pretty cheap. I got lucky on the last dump for a $8700 fill.
Coinbase is their wallet and also has issues. That one if you want to send funds has hours delays. I think mine last night was 3 hours from send to even showing up on the bitcoin network. I sent one this morning at 7am and still not even in the network yet. Luckily i have moved everything now to Breadwallet but I am convinced when you withdraw they do not have coins readily available and need to buy and sell to get them.
We are also going to see even more exchanges bite the dust and coordinated attacks while the surges happen. This scaling issue could cause some strange issues for margin traders and on withdraws for exchanges that operate with fractional reserves and buying up coins is now very expensive.
I used my bank account to buy BTC so I have to wait days for it to process. I bought litecoin with my debit card which was limited to $300. So the litecoin I can try to sell and buy instantly but my bitcoin Iām stuck waiting still lol.
Haha oh boy. The futures are going to be entertaining. Here is the CME release on how they are calculating their indexā¦ Prepare for disaster.
It looked like things were back in business a moment ago, I hit ābuyā and then it did nothing, lol.
so glad coinbase/gdax is shutting me down
SMH
Well now that the dip is over itāll let me buy again, lol.
Bought at the 16.5k dip. Also my limit is now 10k 
So if bitcoin is climbing this fast does that mean people are withdrawing from traditional bank accounts? I see the US Dollar collapsing soon.

The first page of this thread is hilarous.
A lot of words for a guy who canāt computer
Im not too experienced with this stuff. Iām hoping when my purchase of bitcoin clears the banks and is processed, I can then buy and sell instantly, I suppose each time I would deposit into my USD wallet rather than putting the funds back into my bank account. Which would then each buy and sell would act instantly from that point on.
Sorry noob question.
