Someone just sold a big chuck of ETH at Gdax and of course Coinbase is now down again.
Seems like it was around $30 milllion in one sell order on Gdax exchange.
The dip was bought by orders set under $100 and Ether is now back at $300!
Until next time,
Rick
@bluesky2100 great catch!
I saw the same thing and was just blown away...
Limit orders... They saved the day for me.

Nice video! Just upvoted you. I have set more limit orders just in case we get another dip!

I've seen reports of people with margin calls losing their entire portfolio...
eg. 400 ETH
2.3 ETH on margin
400 ETH sold for $2 a piece
Ouch. Ouch. Ouch.

@blakeh - I've seen a bunch of messages like that too on Reddit an Twitter...
Absolutely brutal. (I always trade with limit orders and never use margin so my only regret is not having set a limit order that seemed crazy at the time.)
There is metion of an ICO that caused it on ZeroHedge. http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-06-21/ethereum-flash-crashes-after-status-ico-clogs-network

This is the best video response I've seen on this so far.
