101  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Coinbase Pro Limit orders. No fees right? on: December 04, 2018, 08:10:04 PM
yes exactly, you understood me very well, that was what i mine.
As i am placing limit orders i am the market MAKER so the fee should be 0%
But i am buying for lets say 10 euro, then selling for 10.10 euro and i just got 7 cents on top instead of 10 cents.

i was just wandering if someone else noticed this? I will ask the coinbase support of course.
if someone else knows why that is hapenning please let me know
thanks


Sounds like you're becoming the market taker at some point. Just because you place a limit order doesn't always mean you'll be market maker, if that limit order fills instantly then you're still a market taker.

You only need to be right about 66% of the time with your strategy to profit which shouldn't be too hard. The hardest thing is controlling your emotions, be that fear or greed. Make sure you take the profit when you can and don't hold beyond your stop-loss at any cost.
104  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why HODLers now pray for banks and institutions to enter if Bitcoin... on: December 02, 2018, 07:59:46 PM
On one hand, it's more clear now the potential bitcoin has and it's closer to achieving that so there's less risk, but the upside is lesser because of the already higher price. Alternatively previously the potential profit was much higher but the risk was more. I'm not sure which was a more attractive investment proposition.

If we look at most of the newbies here, then they don't really mind the risk considering that they have been going nuts on shitcoins to find the next Bitcoin or Ethereum. If you also add that most people by now have figured out that pretty much every altcoin goes up more than Bitcoin does percentage wise, it's an easy choice for them.

In the end, it takes time for people to appreciate why crypto has value in the first place, which is why bear markets are great. Instead of focusing on gains, they can now read into Bitcoin for example, engage in discussions here, etc. Almost every person here started as get rich quick noob, people often tend to forget that.

Sure, long term alts don't on average perform better than bitcoin though, or else its market dominance would be continually in decline. It's held pretty steady around 50% for some time which is impressive as more alts are added each day.

You're probably right about the majority starting as get rich noobs, I can say that my motivation for buying bitcoin at first was definitely financial. I did research bitcoin a little but I have learned a lot more since then. It's easy to forget your own beginnings and lament the people who are in the same place you were, just a few years further down the line.

So we are ok with letting governments control bitcoin?  What you are describing is basically allowing governments to get rid of bitcoin's censorship resistance.
They are not controlling bitcoin, they are stating that these addresses have funds which are restricted for trade for one reason or another, be that money laundering, corruption, whatever. Adding privacy is just going to further enable this activity. Why are you so keen to see that happen? I for one am glad that there is a public blockchain and people can be held to account.

if everybody gets a lambo there will be flying lambos and no one will want the lambos anymore

bitcoin introduced crypto more wasn't necessary it would be insane wasting global electricity for bitcoin

in the real world you can see opportunities are out there for anyone to grab them but we only see one Steve Jobs instead of millions. the same thing is true here too. those newbies who busy themselves with FUDs from other newbies and whale accumulators are always left behind. we have had the same discussions against bitcoin for years and bitcoin has been rising ever since. I remember people saying the same nonsense when price was $200 and I still continued to buy it.

now guess which one of us has more money? Wink
someone who bought bitcoin in that dip when everyone else was saying bitcoin is dead or someone who listened to the FUD and sold at a loss and didn't buy back...
yes, you are right, this kind of thing keeps repeating, every time always there are those who say that, and maybe not many people like you are lucky because you know bitcoin from the beginning, so you can now enjoy the results, but on the other hand those who are new to Bitcoin this year will certainly find it difficult to understand and accept conditions like now.

I find it an interesting debate of it was easier to buy in faith then or now? On one hand, it's more clear now the potential bitcoin has and it's closer to achieving that so there's less risk, but the upside is lesser because of the already higher price. Alternatively previously the potential profit was much higher but the risk was more. I'm not sure which was a more attractive investment proposition.

There's a difference between banks and institutions being involved in the spread and adoption of something to them being in control of it. Bitcoin will forever be in the control of no-one, it is decentralized. Banks and institutions will be needed for bitcoin to reach a global audience and adoption. If that is right or not is personal opinion but banks and institutions will not have control so stop spouting that around.

I agree it doesn't make any sense but when has that stopped governments in the past?  I am worried by how quickly everyone is dismissing this issue given the broad power US financial regulators have.  I personally think it is very important that Bitcoin adds privacy features ASAP.

Privacy features are only going to provoke regulators even more. Right now things are transparent and they can work towards a way of controlling bitcoin without severely inhibiting its growth. If true privacy is added then they'll lose that element of control and the only real option will be to outlaw it.
109  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bottom is in !! on: November 30, 2018, 02:51:39 PM
We're either oversold and already broke the bottom, which should mean a fairly swift return back to $6000. Or we haven't reached the bottom yet which will likely mean a push down to $3000 or lower. I believe that the second is more likely true given how little push back there has been with the price, there seems to be little in terms of buying volume to move the price upwards.
I really hope that is not the case, the price going down even further will be probably the breaking point of many investors, while many will be happy with those investors leaving the market that will decrease the adoption and it is likely that someone that has lost so much money with cryptocurrencies will prefer to not invest again in them, so the small recovery we are seeing even if it is not much gives those investors at little bit of more calm and they could decide to keep holding.

We'll only reach the bottom when fear is at its maximum and the large majority of people have little hope for a recovery. Looking at past bottoms from a mass psychological perspective, we're still some way away. Of course sometimes that trend is broken with exceptional circumstances, the tech and innovation we're seeing may be enough to break that but at this moment I believe the market is still too driven by speculation for that to be the case.


i think it's a dead cat bounce. buying volume isn't too impressive, and there's no V bottom to be seen.

the S&P 500 is also threatening a pullback. the last 4h close is a bearish star doji. it looks like the stock market is about to test the theory that we made a double bottom; the same could be true for BTC. while i don't believe there is a direct causal relationship with bitcoin, like masterluc i believe they are correlated because of a larger market cycle.

As I've said before, I believe that's more likely to be the case. Although a V might not form for some time, if the price returned back to 6k in a week or two then looking on a few day or 1 week graph you'd see the V you spoke of.

There is undoubtedly a link between the stock market and crypto markets, while there's most probably no causality there's a strong positive correlation and it makes sense. They're both choices of investment and more risky ones at that, if the wold economy changes and investment goes down or moves towards safer investments then both will suffer.

Given that the people transacting are not aware of who it is that they are transacting with I think they would have a fairly solid defense in that argument. Especially in the case where it's knock on spending. A to B then B to C then C to D. D would not have any idea that those coins were even from A.
112  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How to know if someone places a big order on: November 29, 2018, 03:49:16 PM
Even if you can observe a large sell wall and when it's place there's no way to know if it's one big order or multiple smaller orders all at the same price. I do not know if that makes a difference for what you intend to use it for but it's worthwhile noting. I personally don't pay much attention to big orders because they are mostly removed before being filled and are just placed in an attempt to move the market one way or the other.
113  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bottom is in !! on: November 29, 2018, 03:46:57 PM
It has been a hell of a drop in last 14 days... The question we are all wondering is where will be the bottom, and whether this has already been a bottom...
I want to show you my top 3 scenarios, which I believe are most probable.


Atm I still believe we are on scenario A. ... yes price went lower, but unless we break 3600, and drop down to 200 weekly moving avg, which is atm at around 3150, i still believe we are in A...

We still don't know that yet if it is really the bottom for now and would not go further down., but I do know that Bitcoin will survive and will run up again.

Is it just me or does this literally just look some kid drew a few rectangles and some squiggly lines? I'm not saying there's no logic behind this but when so many different forms of TA all look the same how can you really trust any of them. I could just as easily draw some lines and say A, B or C will occur.
114  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bitfinex announces Tether neutrality and launches new stablecoin pairs on: November 28, 2018, 10:05:55 AM
Does this mean that USDT/USD market will exist on bitfinex but won't be 1:1? It will only be 1:1 when converting with a delay via using the tether site? If that's the case I'm not convinced it's a good thing, it can only lead to panic in the market as the price is pushed down below 1:1.

So just in case anyone actually missed the point of your question, which could have been asking what ROI actually meant.

ROI is return on investment. It's the percentage return you get on the amount invested. E.G. If you invest $100 and receive $120 back you have an ROI of 20% or 0.02.

As for specifying what the ROI is on any investment, that's near impossible unless you have some future telling powers.

Every market always goes through the same pattern, boom and bust, it's not only crypto. It's true for everything in life. The rules of physics apply not only to physical things. What goes up, must come down.
119  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: That you think about decentralized cryptocurrency exchanges? on: November 25, 2018, 08:18:33 PM
Hello, traders! I hate paying fees, that is the reason I never store my assets in ordinary fiat banks, they charge insane amounts for nothing (I live in Switzerland though). Now I’am obsessed with crypto exchanges (especially DEXs) but I have never seen transaction fee lower than 0.25%. Could you persuade me I was not very attentive in this search? It is necessary Ethereum tokens support.

It's my own personal belief that IDEX is the best DEX, although it's not fully decentralized, but they never hold your own tokens. They have recently had to start conducting KYC so if that's an issue you should avoid that. They have a great choice of tokens and an easy to use exchange.
120  Economy / Speculation / Re: Who here brought @ $20K? on: November 25, 2018, 08:16:08 PM
I didn't buy right at the top but not far from that level. Fortunately(ish) not on my own behalf, but I still feel bad for facilitating someone else buying at what is now looking like such a terrible price. They'd heard of the benefits of bitcoin and wanted to leave their investment for a long time to see how it will perform, so at least in that regard they may still be okay. They were also well aware of the potential risks.
