1000$ floor?!!! Thanks IMF!
speculator84, yeah I think that's mainly hype on news feeds. Much of their sales are usually done "off exchange" and will sell to someone that is a huge buyer.

But these sales rarely hold down the price because of this. However, the initial news of it almost always jolts it for a bit. Then the trend resumes.

We'll know shortly how it acts this time around.

Thanks for commenting, speculator.
