I've also been wondering if it is still possible that someone is preparing to take profit off of huge dumps. It will be interesting if this is the case and we see the huge spikes once again.
I'm especially interested if they can make it past the last records or if they will settle with the past records.
I also noticed this happening in June and thought that maybe I could start profiting soon. Calculated how many times I would need to make 10% profits using compounded interest etc. but then it stopped working.
Hope you're right with your observations. I'd really like to get to try my theory (similar to yours) for real this time. But I'll settle for a long term hold also. Best way to to become wealthy anyway.
