Price isn't moving because everyone's busy pumping alt-coins.

I personally learned a lot in the last 36 hours regarding the crypto market and how it reacts to rallys in Bitcoin. I completely missed the boat with this most recent alt rally. And now that it has happened it seems so absolutely obvious to me. So when the time is right, I will not be making that mistake again. Lesson learned. Live and learn.
(Meanwhile, 3 days left for BTC to hit $1000. My best guess was always today or tomorrow, but we will see. I wonder if its just going to happen in a split instance or if Gox is going to tease us for a few more days?)
Yeah, I really considered buying LTC around $2 for short term trading purposes (to get more BTC in the end), because I could see a scenario like this happening, but I basically chickened out (wanted LTC/BTC to drop even further), big mistake. And even a few days ago I was thinking it could still go up, but chickened out again. Maybe LTC/BTC will still go higher in the near future, but I don't think its a particularly interesting trade anymore right now.
