Title: How to Identify cryptos trading exponential above their average trading range Post by: santosh_crypto on January 02, 2018, 05:43:30 PM The crypto market is extremely volatile and knowing when something is going to the moon can be a maker or breaker for lot of new traders...you wanna buy something that is starting to climb and sell when it's high enough for your liking...the difficult part is avoiding to buy into something that is already overbought or 50% up and people looking to take profit. unfortunately with all the news and hype of X or Z coins up 100% around, most of us fall for FOMO including myself :) the only way avoid this is to get educated and doing more research i think...
how do you guys find early movers? would love to get your comments on this subjet Title: Re: How to Identify cryptos trading exponential above their average trading range Post by: Imfinnabeon on January 02, 2018, 07:50:13 PM Well in order to do that you gotta do things the average trader doesn't do. That would involve mapping out what you are going to do, and then buying as the price is dipping. It isn't what we want to do but it is what will make us the most long term.
