Title: Please someone tell me how to trade this great bubble
Post by: SlipperySlope on November 18, 2013, 08:28:19 PM
I am planning on simply buying more coins after the collapse.

But if I wanted more risk - I think some sort of spread. What do you think?  [edited the typo -  :)]

No ones knows for sure.

Personally I don't think a crash is coming at all, today anyways.

I think there's enough risk and return already. If you want to amplify it that just forces you to time the market on a finer scale. Why make your job more difficult? Nothing wrong with setting a little aside to catch the tops and bottoms, though - that smooths out volatility and does everyone a service.

Just study the log chart and you can find some recurring patterns.

I would gradually buy coins over the next couple of weeks. If you do that, there are two possibilities:

A. The price keeps going up, and when the next big correction happens, your average price will not be much higher than the low of that correction, or maybe even below it.
B. The correction comes in the next couple weeks, and you'll get some coins before it and some during it and after it, so your average price will be fine.

Either scenario A or B would have a good outcome for you. It's more risky to buy all at once or to wait for your desired price before you buy any.

If you have to ask... well just be careful. Experienced traders are well adept at nabbing coins from weaker hands.

We don't have options (at least not with any depth), so all you can really do is just buy...

Take a loan on bitfinex.com That will increase your risk and potential return (positive and negative!)
