I am not sure how many of you has come across with huge threads where people keep asking whether this coin will boom in 2018 or not? Whether ETH will be above 2500? BTC above 20K USD? and many more same questions over and over again.

Everyone who enters the market should note that crypto currencies are dependent upon various factors that happen around them over the year. They keep chaining the rates all the time even if there slightest change in the good and bad news over the global channels.

There is no right or no wrong prediction of the crypto currencies and if you start believing in such forecasts then you can jeopardise your portfolio in worst way possible. Thinking about some coins in beliefe that their forecast says they will go moon and then investing would be unrealistic.

Always think about the situation in proper ways and react on live basis to your portfolio. Thats the only option you have got.

Not heard of any those projects you have listed. But will do checkout them from the ANN section for more detailed reviews and getting more info about them. However I do have some good suggestion for you like Orbis Transfer, INGOT and VoxelX. These are top three ICO's that I am currently following. I usually dont go for straight investment into the crypto currencies ICO phase however these have attracted me a lot with their working models. The consents are unique and thus I feel that they might be successful one.

That is not a true news and no one is taking about that as such.

People are scared about the crypto currencies because they fail many times in the crypto currencies to achieve their goals of earning profits and thus out of fear they start leaving the crypto.

However, people those who fail in crypto currencies will always spread FUD news like this as they think they are right in understanding the crypto world where they think its not working at all. So just ignore them.

That is a very obvious thing to know! Actually the first surge that comes from the market is all about the dumpers who are no one but the bounty hunters itself. In such situation the prices always be listed with the minimum of ICO price and thus as bounty hunters have to loose nothing then they will start selling the coins right away.

We should always let this surge to pass on and let the market recover after that. Its aways ideal thing to do because by this time it will catch lot of fire and will be hot in its prices.

Its simple.

My screening starts with the ranking of crypto currencies in the CMC. This website sorts out the rank according to the market capitalism and volume (24 hours) that is received by the coin. This way, the more the market cap the more is the rank and thus as an example, BTC is #1 because it has the greatest volume of all and market cap too.

Thus, I will choose Top 100 first so that I wont get confused with the rest 1500 coins in the market. These 100's at least ensures that they will not be dead anytime sooner than others.

After this, depending upon the current development, roadmap status, the coins which are on track, ahead of the time will get another preference. They come up.

Likewise I decide to go for altcoins. It makes it far easier.

Off course they are because they will always getting disturbed in their volume when it comes to the bear trend. Im not 100% sure if this the last bearish trend or not but it is always good to think about it in that way and we can get started with making up of some portfolio's here. I think buying the coins which are undervalued and are now more down in their initial value can be good shot. Just imagine, they are undervalued and in that also they dropped even further thus making it look like bright discounted opportunity or something! So yeah go ahead for such coins like IOST, REM, SCL, XRP, ADA etc.

To be frank we are here in the crypto currency and that’s why we always like to see our bitcoin or other crypto currency to take the place of fiat currency. Somehow we start to correlate bitcoin with all other type of ways to transact but that’s just not possible for bitcoin. At least not in today’s date when the crypto is in ambiguous use of real people in terms of laundering, scams, frauds etc. Governemnt will allow its use only when it’s really mandatory or upto the mark.

If the coins are under $1 then it doesn’t matter because it’s further development will decide how much price it will cost to buy that share of token. The decision can be made on few facts such as, whether the coin being under 1 bucks is capable of driving huge daily volume or not. For example, IOST is not even 5 cents worth but it’s volume for daily trade is more than couple of millions and thus it tells us that this has some real development agendas going on. So coins like that are really worth buying and they can profit you lot.

I think that was merely a coincidence about the closure of exchanger registration or could be the fact that they really reached their server limit ahead. Who knows whats the real fact is but one thing is sure that we cant just judge depend upon that. We could have said that it is a price manipulation if it would have been for the single coin. But when it comes to the whole market login up and down then it doesnt real mean that its manipulation. It is natural up and down causing due to real market investment and facts that panic and natural sells are occurring.

This is not a strategy but just way of trading your alts. I dont think that buying btc by selling your altcoins means anything at all. I mean it is simple fact that, if you bought your auctions at some point then you bought them with vision of something! Like getting 40% profits out of this portfolio or at least sell the alts when they will be 2x, 5x or etc. If you buy altcoins with that strategy then why even care to sell them for the bitcoin? Always keep both thing separate and do not mix them for any investment. If you see bitcoin has dropped and want to make some investment then do it with additional fiat but not the alts. This wont disturb your investment at all.

I think day trading is not much crazy these days as crypto currencies are gaining too much volatility. I think when volatility start rising you should focus more on the strategies like Swing Trading. Off course everyone knows that for doing the Crypto Swing Trading the currency that we are trading on must have volatility. Surprisingly all the currencies in crypto are recently being very much volatile and you can just pick and work on anyone you want. This strategy works most of the time as all the conditions for it are in line in the world of crypto. As far as day trade is considered it can take breath out of you until you get proper profits.

Off course that makes real sense here. Without knowledge you can not understand the rules and ways of working via which crypto currencies are moving further. Its not just you can come here, start looking for good investment and put your money and expect it to rise 10-100 folds than the current investment. Things doesnt work like that here, you have to understand the very basic principle of each project and for that you have to keep gaining more and more knowledge. Whether you are going to trade, gamble, lend, or do almost any other way, each of them have different sets of rules which we must know and there is no blind game here. So yeah agree that knowledge is the foundation. (its universal)

Wish all the countries would have been the same like Germany. They are really appreciating the value of bitcoin now and it is kinda following the footstep of Japan. However German is one step ahead as they are not login to tax the crypto currency trade and investment. However, I dont understand what safety measures Germany is going to take in terms of heavy transaction made into crypto currency. Aren't they are afraid about the reduced tax filing as people start getting attracted towards the crypto currency and try to create property and asset with it as it is tax free. Have anyone thought of it? 

Thats really funny but at the same time very serious matter considering the current scam projects. Off course this is the strategy of all the bad people who thinks the whole strategy in perfect manner. They literally show us the whole new world and thus we start thinking about it as reality but in the reality it isn't reality.  

I think next time people will do check the profile of team members very carefully as it becomes very sensitive topic when such high class illusions are shown to us. There is no way one can confirm them but we should always ask for the proofs if we get the chance by communicating with the teams.

Indeed. This is not even the case to discuss about as there is no way we can stop individual person from selling his or her coins like that. People are here to make genuine profits, nobody is going wait for nobody and thus this system will always stay the way it should be, decentralised! Without this term the crypto currency is incomplete and thus I would say that the decision making process in this market is all about how much you want to earn or even loose. Its not like stock exchange where broker does the job for you and if you lost then lost and if you won then you won!

To be honest I never got the opportunity to invest as early as you are speaking. When I first started with bitcoin the I was little scared about the crypto currencies and I always put little money but took out everything as soon as I saw some green around the market. I never trusted it initially for the long hold and thus I got really liquid assets back then. However I was lucky enough to invest more money in 2017 start and sold most of the bitcoin in mide year when the price was around 5K USD which was still great hike for me.

It’s not the case always. Many times altcoins do break the bearish trend despite of bitcoin trends. There are many examples of that and in the current market situation also I can see more than ten to fifteen coins following such kind of trend. Also we already broken the bearish trend when we crossed the 7,500 line for bitcoin. So it wouldn’t be problem for the altcoins you are talking about for getting Spikes.

What you looking for is IOST. The internet of services token is something out of the box this year. They are already scalable on their blockchain and thus having good time developing their projects. Taking those facts in consideration I believe that IOST will sale up in terms of investments on large scale this year. They already went on publishing themselves about next level of developments with the signature campaigns and other marketing stuff. Thus they are now growing even larger and im sure they will have some good spikes this year. Better to get into them now if you haven't yet. With one year period you can go crazy rich with this coin.  

I dont really see how airdrops can attract people here and they do go and work for them. They just pay you few dollars for that work but the job is very much tedious though people say its just few steps of work.

Anyway if you still want to join the airdrops which could be legit one then try to join all of them published by CSbounty services. Search for their telegram with that username and ask for the active airdrops and you will get list of 4-5 airdrops that are going on right now. Hope this helps you in finding your legit airdrops.

I did panic last time when it was my start here but late on as I started to understand this market more and more then I came to know its not worrying thing when crypto currency falls down or its not all worrying thing when there is panic sale because of weak hands. If we do the same then we are responsible for our own investment and its loss of course. If I am supposed to invest my money in the crypto currency then surely I should have sufficient understanding that this decentralised market can get disturbed with weak hands and thus we must not get panic about it. Im not afraid of the market now and all the ups and downs is the real cycle of this market. So why to be afraid of anything like this.
