G0DS DIR: We're killing the Dyspro market

Guys‚ i think we might be ruining the market for ourselves. I've noticed since we got space and started moon mining that the market in Jita has become flooded with Dysprosium for sale, and as a result the price is crashing.
Firstly the figures:
1 week ago i sold our first batch on the market for 93,000isk. That was under 3 days worth, about 6500 units i think.
Оvеr the week though the market has become flooded. I guess its Goodfellas partly contributing to that because we are an alliance that doesn't care too much about reactions and shit. At a price of 90k 1 moon harvesting 100 units and hour earns 9m an hour‚ or 210m a day. Multilpy by 30 days and thats 6.5bn a month. If you got a 200 cycle then its 13bn a month.
Wind forward 1 week and we are looking at 78k for it and no sign of the price stopping to fall. Thats down to 5.6bn a month. But how low is it going to go?
I mean, fuck me.. its still great, but if we can work together on this we can make sure it goes back up to that value, and thats like 1 extra carrier a month for each of us!
So what can we do?
Well lets be smart about this. I think a lot of the competion is us, and the rest market traders.
1 option is to sell in other market hubs so as not to flood one market.
Another is to set our sell orders to have the decimal .69 at the end of them, so we can see that we are Gods selling it.
Also, we could consider temporarily withdrawing or raising our sell orders back up to 85k or something. If we all did this it would leave a few isolated sell orders very low, they would soon get snapped up. the price is then raised back up to a more reasonable level. We then repeat, pull orders up to 90k.
Traders will see the increase and probably respond by raising their prices, sensing more money. Those that don't follow suit will probably be sold off anyway.
We need to work together on this guys, if we don't the price will go down even more. Soon it will be an extra dread we are missing out on a month.

I'd personally thought it was more likely to be the NC selling off their stockpiles in a last attempt to keep their space.
i don't know what proportion of dyspro moons goodfellas owns‚ but imagine it will be in the 1-5% range. even so, making sure we are not competting with each other would be a good idea, and would support some manipulation if we have the resources to do it.
maybe even agreeing to each setup sell orders on different days so that there is less direct competition. (or we could sell to the guy in alliance that has high weekly demand for it)

I put my money on the NC as well. If i were them and had their resources‚ I would want to make life as difficult on us as possible. I say we hold stockpiles of the stuff in empire, then when the NC runs out, and a shortage begins, we start cashing in on our reserves.
Though, we have to be careful not to chunk the whole stockpile on the market at once - that would quickly fix the shortage. We should do like ОPEC and wait until pеople are busting at the seams and then saying "EH‚ I guess we can increase production by 15%."
Another option is that we start experimenting with reactions. If we can get some complex materials going and stockpile those in addition to the raw dysposium, then we would have great leverage on the market at large. The guys with the T2 BPОs arеn't so powerful when they don't have access to materials; by controlling the market in one area‚ we can affect another.

See my maths above.
With the price at 90k as it was a week ago its 9million an hour!9 x 24 x 30 = a shade under 6.5bn per month‚ over 6.5bn on a 31day month.
Now with the price dropping it comeѕ down a bit, but it IS possiblе.
