I am actually glad if we pump also since I have coins that I want to sell. 0.0043 is not a problem for me - I make money also with that price. 

I agree shorting is not good. However I wish people are not having long positions either if this starts to get really ugly... 

I do not often agree with RP but I think now is the time.
I have still coins for sale if you want to pump it higher - and I am even thinking should I break the bull market...

Nobody knows how many coins I have and that's the beauty of the game.
However, often people have been able to make money by following my actions so let's see if the smart money starts to move away from Monero and let me increase my position. If not, I am satisfied - anyway I sold high the coins I bought low.

Lol.
During the past 24 hrs alone I'be sold more than 14 k xmr. 
And if you want to buy more, just put some buy walls - I still have some coins which I can sell.
I hope to buy back some  coins lower. Let's see if I am successful.

I really hope the price stays above 0.002 so that we can maintain the bull run.
Now there are so much dumping taking place in the markets.. What is currently the critical price for maintaining the bull run?

I have not pre-set any trading plans.
If I see the markets cannot take a certain price or higher, then I sell. I am not stupid that stupid that I would hold something that decreases. My next selling target might be at 0.003-0.004 or it can be 0.04 or 0.1 or even higher. I do not like setting prices since surprisingly things happen and crypto is not like gold bullion in the sense of price setting - Crypto do not hold any intrinsinct value like gold... Its value is based on supply and demand, nothing else. When there is a reason to speculate more demand will enter, I will take a position and become bullish and vice versa. I am pretty open about this. Why should I hide it even?

Monero can have value also as a store of value. Monero has inflation which lowers over time and that is something people who are concerned about inflation loves. Therefore Monero can have value other than transactional currency. I think Monero will both be used as a method of payment as well as a store of value.
If 18 million Moneros will be held as a store of value we can transact very well with the rest of Moneros. We simply buy our toys with fractions of Moneros like people did when bitcoin was 1000 usd.

I have much more than 18 000 XMR. In the future I do not know but let's hope nothing happens which would force me to sell too early to make the expensive mistake.

Nobody calling that price besides me but as I told, my IQ is only 106 so perhaps that's the reason.
Risto mentioned this price in Polo trollbox like 1 year ago... And people are talking about my price target of 2000 usd. It may not happen also but I see it as a possiblity meanwhile many thinks it is impossible.

Perhaps it is due to my low IQ - only 106 1-2 years ago when I measured it - but I see 2000 usd Monero price possible. Or even higher - do not get me wrong.
I do not think it will happen like 1-2 days but it definetely is possible in few years. Bitcoin reached 1200 usd in less than 5 years. Monero can do it even in shorter period as Monero do not need to bear the weight of first mover (Monero community reached the current size faster than bitcoin reached the same number of users/holders as the community was not crypto virgins).

Simple mathematics is my main reasoning, however it requires a few assumptions and if those will not be fulfilled it is rockier road to reach the 2000 usd (or higher) price.
One thing we need is enough coins stored in  cold storages/held unused. Let's assume, all the coins that will be mined before the tailed emission is stored in cold storages by different users.
Then we have the minimum block reward which is 0.1 xmr or so if I am not mistaken. That means, daily emission is 60*24*0.1=144 coins.

Then there is only 1 million usd that wants to buy Moneros daily. This leads the relative price of Monero is 1 000 000usd/144xmr = 6944 usd/xmr.

I've picked 2000 usd Monero price to be safer and more conservative..
I agree not many here fully realize fuller potential of Monero. People tend to assume coin maximum can reach 10 times higher price than the current price, which is pretty understandable since people in general are used to 5-10 % annual ROI from US stock markets. Therefore speaking about the potential of Monero (or any other crypto that has something to contribute to the society) is something we really has not seen yet to come true.

I consider Monero as an investment such as Microsoft has been for Bill Gates. When he started with Windows it was a company of one man. Now (almost) every company has Windows as their operating system not to mention the general population who has Windows in their PCs.
Monero is now like Windows in early stages to me (time before it was listed publically). When stocks are listed many founders of the compnies cash out - for them the most ROI potential is reached when the markets give the fair value for their businesses. When the company is listed, it starts to give the small 5-10 % ROI annually to which the sheep is used to.

I like the fact that people are talking about 2000 usd Monero price - even though many are pretty critical towards that price for Monero.
I have given arguments why it is possible that Monero reach it (I am not saying it is most likely taking place but certainly it is possible).
However, the people who critisize this view never gives even one argument why it is not going to happen. The best arguments against that is "It will not happen because it is TrueCryptonaire who says so" (meanwhile TrueCryptonaire is one of the view who is right pretty often - not always but often).

Actually the amount of sceptics is making me even more bullish as there are still many people who need to adapt to Monero.

If you want to make money you usually need to be ahead of the mainstream, but also it is important that the mainstream is following you, but only later when we have reached the higher price. 

oh, it's you again. 

You are right.
If you are able to acquire 100 000 XMR for 0,70 usd each, it is 116 000 XMR and if XMR costs 2000 usd each in some point in the distant future, the difference is significiant (32 million usd).

However, the challenge is to buy large amounts in quantities at low price as there is competition. For instance, I have been silently accumulating during the bear trend and I am planning to make some bigger accumulation.

When Monero is 2000 usd each, you do not care less wether you paid 0.70 usd or 0.60 usd for your Moneros do you.

Monero is so cheap and still scarce that if it starts getting even 1 serious buyer who wants to invest 100 000 usd the price has to rise. If the price stayed at the same, one would be able to collect a nice collection of Moneros for 100 k. However unfortunately that's impossible to hold it back.
It is time for more stable growth when the price goes beyond 100 or so usd per coin.

I hope you did not sell (or if you did, then try to get it back)...

Darkcoin was delisted due to lack of volume.
Monero is no better at the moment (yes, 670 btc has been traded during the past 24 hrs in Polo - but before that there was a long period when the volume was dead).
Monero finally needs volume to be listed in exchanges so that those businesses have financial incentive to add Monero.

My speculation:

If we do not make new ATH during this rally, my speculation is we are now around the bottom of the dump that is followed by this uptrend.
If we make new ATH, the bottom will be most likely significiantly higher than the current level.

It is known as a buying opportunity.
Monero deserves 10 usd this year if you ask me so if this happens also Monero gives nice ROI for those smart ones who buy it below 10 usd.

P.S. Today's position increase: about 400 XMR.

Even if XMR establishes over 0.0111 it is still around 3 bucks per coin.
It is like buying bitcoins in 2011-2012. Assuming of course that Monero project succeeds at least in the same extent as bitcoin -project.
However, I would count a lot on network effect. The nice bull run and a serious marketcap will attract smart ones to XMR + it will attract money obviously. If the vast majority of coins are locked into storage rooms it makes the tradeble number of coins pretty small and gives room for a bull run like we have never seen before if even one or two bigger guys buys into this. After all, to buy in one shot the whole sell order book in Poloniex costs 3500 BTC. For additional 10 000-20 000 BTC you probably can get the coins from the sidelines as well. If 25 000 btc is poured on XMR it means only 6.9 million usd which is nothing IMO. Only one richer guy could make it or a few semi rich guys can bail people out from Poloniex IMO.

Try Poloniex.
