Margin is dangerous in a bear market! Take a look at the following chart:
In that chart I see an avalanche of stop orders creating market sell orders that trigger margin calls creating more market sell orders, etc, etc. Volume was enormous compared to normal, and there just wasn't enough liquidity @ Bitfinex for LTC. Some people lost a fortune today, and some made a fortune today. Be careful!
That being said, it's possible that the markets could make another run to resistance. Gox could make a run back to ~$800, and LTC could see ~$25.50, but if they do rally they will sell off again. Breakout is $595.40, and $15.51, respectively.
This is a dangerous market, so remember: Bulls make money, Bears make money, and Pigs get slaughtered!
