Title: Bitcoins trading, risky or fun
Post by: manekari on November 09, 2013, 04:02:07 PM
Hi,

I am new to bitcointalk and conveying my hello to all.


I am following bitcoins since feb-march when it was weighted at ~30USD. At that time i was so excited to see how gradually it raises and falls. i used to search every news regarding this, have registered an account on mtgox/OkPay. But due to lack of trust on this, i stepped back. I saw in recent months it grown bigger and as of now its on the highest peak.

This made me think about trading it.

So, I am from India, having an Indian SBI bank account (without SWIFT enabled branch), would love to get into this. (not now, but i can definitely wait for this current bubble to break :P :D)

Has anyone from Indian involved in mtgox and traded successfully with them ?

Some questions in my mind :

1) what is the preferred way to add funds in mygox account ? bank transfer / OkPay ? (or Anyone tried ?)

To withdraw funds, i can see SWIFT bank transfer or OkPay. i cant find SWIFT code for my bank branch.
3) Is OkPay is good for receiving funds ? does this works for Indian banks ?

Final question : as i cant go with except mtgox, still i would like to get some suggestions on alternative secure trading platforms in india.

If you want to invest wait for a fall.

Nothing is  safe on the  cloud. get  your  own wallet  and  encrypt it . security  of your  bitcoin  is  totally  on  you.  i  prefer  to   print  out  my wallet  and  keep it  off  the  grid.
