Title: What do you think about crypto indices?
Post by: ALBOS Project on July 10, 2018, 08:23:15 AM
What's you opinion on crypto index? Is it a good strategy for passive, but efficient crypto investing?

I suppose by crypto index, you mean something like the index fund (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Index_fund).

I think 'crypto index' will be just like index fund in terms of performance, but the cycles will be much faster and quicker than the index fund. Actually, if we take a look at the crypto market, their historical price movement does seem to be mimicking or similar to how traditional (gold, silver, stocks) assets performance. Will it be good for passive investing? I don't think so, as sometimes there will be some tokens/coins that have a lower price than the average index that could increased more than 300% in just several months. CMIIW.

I do not really understand this indicator, maybe I have to learn more, but I have not analyzed in depth the value and the index. If there is time I will analyze.

We are not talking about any indicator, such as MACD or RSI if this is what you mean. Rather, we're actually discussing a kind of investment, which will be something like the index fund that we currently have on the stocks market.

I'd love to suggest you read before you write anything, and don't post just because you need to get paid for signature campaign.

Yeah, I meant this thing. I mean some say that investing in such a fund is less risky when it comes to volatility as you actually buy the portfolio of top-5, top-20 of whatever

On what basis do we determine such list? So far, it seems that the top list is in terms of the market cap which I think don't actually reflect how stable their price is. Not only that, based on the current market condition, it seems that BTC dominance is still great that makes any other crypto beside it gets more volatile when Bitcoin is not in sideways. If there a solution for this, I think it might be interesting to see how crypto index will performs.

As far as I heard, there are such indices created by different companies. And they decide themselves what cryptos and how many of them they'd like to include

Crypto indices or Crypto CFD that tradeable in the MT4 platform? Trade on crypto CFD/ Contract for different is good way to make money because allow us to make profit from bearish market by open potition sell. I have seen many broker like FX Open, XM, Simple Fx offer this trading product. In this situation of crypto market will be good choice to trade crypto on this platform

Crypto index in my opinion similar like mutual funds in stocks market, that allow us to make investment in some amount and we receive the profit annually. But at the moment i never try this kind of investment. This kind of investment offer low return so its better trade by self to make bigger profit.
