Style Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 I can't seem to catch these things early enough, I'll need to up my game! TKY and DBC are others I've picked up as well as they looked really promising Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Anyone been looking at COSS? A new exchange that is hoping to have FIAT pairings by the end of March. Also distributes 50% of their revenue in dust to their coin holders as well. I've just signed up and grabbed a few sheckles. OCN is something I need to look at tonight too. Will do my TRX some favours if all goes well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 Stop losses are more for day trading / chasing pumps than they are long term investing, 10% is more than enough if you know where to buy. I'd be a little wary of putting any more fiat in at the moment buddy, we are still in a bear market and the btc charts don't look healthy. If we don't break the downtrend btc could easily half its value, at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 I’m just moving around my alt coin holdings to free cash up mate. Not went in with more FIAT for a while now. Market cap seems to be trending up again so things aren’t all doom and gloom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jellybean Posted March 27, 2018 Author Share Posted March 27, 2018 in the sense I want the prices to go back up so I can get out by breaking even With whats in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I have a few trades going on, i'm up at the moment but only by luck and buying in a dip and getting out before the next one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 (edited) Personally i think the only trading you should be doing at the moment is short term day trading, buying breakouts etc. I liquidated 99% of my holdings into fiat well over a month a go when bitcoin was no longer in a 'dip' and was in a confirmed downtrend / bearmarket. The right move too, i'd be deep into 5figures worse off if i'd blindly held on. I only have big holding left that i am uberbullish on. We are still in a bearmarket. It'll go like this for alts.. if bitcoin does break out of the downtrend it'll pump for a few weeks meaning alt coins normally lose value, in btc value and £ value as people sell them to ride btc pump. If bitcoin continues bleeding out alt coins will too, more than bitcoin, as people sell out for fiat/tether, minus a few breakouts here and there. Either way, its a bad time to hold any alt coins for a prolonged period ATM unless you are good at TA/FA. Play the market cycles, every coin, stock, precious metal etc has them Expecting (hoping) btc to break out in april, if it doesn't, doom. Best to be in btc or fiat If btc does breakout and pumps, buy altcoins like there is no tomorrow once they hit their major support levels! This is why you always take profits in a bull market Nb. best we can hope for is a double bottom about $5.9k then a big bounce. If we break that we prob going to see between $2k and 4k, hard to tell, this is mostly best guess and identifying strong support prices.

el_bandido Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I am, the markets have been brutal lately but I've managed to make a small amount since February. I was lucky enough to move most of my gains out in December, anticipating a drop in Jan. I didn't expect it to keep dropping, but I've managed to put myself in a position where I will make high 5 to 6 figures if (when) the market recovers to its December position.

Style Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Looks like Bitfinex have (quietly) just added ALT/FIAT pairings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Yes I bailed out back into FIAT a few weeks ago for a circa £6k loss although if I had of stayed in I would be over £15.4k down now so 100% the right call. More falling likely do jumping back in when either BTC hits $5500 or $40 NEO whichever comes first. Avoid Bitifinex is my advice. When the whole tether debacle explodes that exchange is likely to come crashing down first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) Been a good week, up nearly 40% on my XRP Edited April 13, 2018 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 Been a good week, up nearly 40% on my XRP if you are up 40% , I would cut and run , let it drop again , go again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 if you are up 40% , I would cut and run , let it drop again , go again Already did with one trade, letting others run for a bit and keep an eye on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted April 13, 2018 Author Share Posted April 13, 2018 It was down drastically over 4 weeks, 40% is a huge return! I get caught up in it too, human nature Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) I have some positions that are down but i've balanced those out so far, i shall leave those to run and see where they go, at the moment they are recovering so we'll see Edited April 13, 2018 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el_bandido Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 I'm up about 45% in the last 24 hours. If this rally keeps up for a bit I might sell half of everything and see if it crashes again. The markets make no sense at the moment, but being up nearly 5 figures in a day is nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 It was all started by market manipulation to catch out the record volume of people shorting BTC so it should’ve just dropped again. Looks like everyone is just FOMO’ing in now and we’ll see a drop again soon. But it’s crypto so who the hell knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheefa Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 This is a temporary pump - be warned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Posted April 13, 2018 Share Posted April 13, 2018 (edited) We are still in a downtrend but market sentiment is changing, we could do with the daily candle closing above 8k-8.2k, even then it could be a bull trap. At the moment all eyes are focused on btc, it's all about margin trading, these big moves either way liquidate people and thats the play at the moment manipulation wise. As Style has said. This bearmarket could easily last the rest of the year unfortunately as it's playing out like the 2014 one so far, though circumstances are different this time. That said, a lot of altcoins are back at their accumulation levels / heavy support. The smart play is trying to catch these breakouts as there's very good profits to be made by day trading these.

But it’s crypto so who the hell knows �� Absolutely agree with this, everyone here should be looking to cash out at least a little bit into GBP/USD when they hit their target price. Chances are you will be able to re-buy at a lower rate in a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T2 MSW Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Outside of crypto did anyone get in on the Micro Focus 50% crash?? its been doing really well over the ,last few weeks.
