Title: Where is the big money trading on margin?
Post by: Sargasm on January 19, 2012, 04:47:17 AM
So... I've been looking a bit at bitcoinica.  I'm really interested in it because it will train me in some advanced trading techniques... but... is the big money in shorting bull markets at their peak or going long when bullishness is around the corner?

Inquiring minds want to know.

Alright then.

I've noticed it isn't hard to figure out either.  Although I'd guess it's a lot more nerve wracking to go long on bear markets.

So then...

Xanax or Valium?

You short in bear markets, and buy in bull markets! And you hold your position. You don't want to daytrade on bitcoinica.

Close first!
