3141  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Why buy WAVES? on: December 31, 2017, 02:07:53 AM
Hey all.  I use waves lite client wallet as most waves users.  Is there a way to check your entire waves history such as deposits/withdraws?  I went to recent transactions but it only show the last few months. 

Thanks.

What about monitoring the coin prices and any coin that goes up a lot you sell it after a short while?

Would you say better to sell all the altcoin or a portion of it?
3146  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Chromebook for Storing Wallets Only? on: December 30, 2017, 04:05:14 PM
Does anyone here have a computer solely for their wallets such as btc, litecoin and every other altcoin?  Thus the only thing they do on it is send/receive coins?  And maybe do trading on that computer?


And if so, does anyone know if a chromebook can do this?  Obviously trading would be hard because the screen is very small.  But what about a chromebook for your wallets?  Imagine you have like 25 different altcoins.  Then you need to download a wallet for each.  And when you do this, you do not visit any online sites on the chromebook/computer etc.


Obviously a regular computer can do this.  But could you do this on a chromebook?  Because chromebook uses their own operating system.
3147  Economy / Trading Discussion / Selling At Dips And Buying Immediately When Rising? on: December 30, 2017, 04:01:00 PM
Hey all got a question and like to know your opinion on this.


Let say you bought a coin that was 5 dollars and bought say 1000 shares a while back.  So you spent around 5000 usd.  Now let say the coin goes up to say 12 dollars.  It went as high as say 15 dollars.  But you notice that the price has been dropping a long with other altcoins.  Let say you notice it go down to 12 dollars and it continues to go down.  Say 11 and then 10 etc.  You keep watching the prices and all it does is go down.  Wouldn't a good strategy be sell a certain amount of this coin at the dip and then buy it back the moment you start noticing prices go back up?


Example you decide to sell say 200 shares of it for 10 dollars at 2000 dollars.  Now the big question is this.  When you sell it for btc... since majority of altcoins cannot be traded against usd or usdt... wouldn't the smart idea be to sell the btc immediately for usdt?  That way no matter what happens with btc, you dont have to take any fluctuations and only look at that altcoin price?  For example you sell the 2k worth of btc for around 1995 usdt?  I used the 0.25 percent bittrex rate.  Now you have 1995 usdt or so.  Now let say the altcoin drops to 8 dollars.  Now the moment you notice it rise to say 8.50... you then decide to buy back that altcoin.  Here you would need to buy the btc with the 1995 usdt you have.  Then immediately buy back the altcoin.  The thing though is say the price is 8.50.  So with your 1995 usdt, you could buy around 233 shares of that altcoin back.  So you made your initial profit of selling it at 10 when buying at 5 and with 200 shares, you made around 1000 - 5 dollar free = 995 dollar profit.  And here... you now have 233 shares as oppose to the 200 shares you just sold.


Im curious are there lot of people that do this?  And if so, do people sell a small portion, medium portion or close to everything when they do something like this?  My thoughts are hey you could sell say 200 shares when its dipping... then use the money you sold it at to buy back more than 200 shares when the prices go back up.


Also if you do this, would selling the btc for usdt be a must or not?  Would that be recommended or not?  Because the issue is if you don't, the issue is say the altcoin goes back up in price.  But now the issue is btc went down.  Thus say when altcoin drops to 8 after you sell it at 10... then it goes back up to 8.50... you want to buy back those altcoins you just sold but because btc went down a lot... you might only get back say 150 shares of the altcoin.  So im curious how do traders handle this.  Do they sell the btc for USDT immediately after they sell the altcoin?  Or do they not?  The thing is if you are trading on say coinbase/gdax, even though i never did this, well the balance is in usd so basically you are going to have a usd balance when buying/trading btc, eth and litecoin.  But with altcoins, its much different mainly because you cannot trade it against usd or usdt.


So if someone does this, would you recommend selling the btc from the altcoin sale immediately for usdt immediately or not?  Then when you are ready to buy back the altcoin at a lower price, you buy btc immediately with usdt... then buy the altcoin immediately with usdt.  Thus you dont have to think about the btc price fluctuations.  And for daytraders, do they usually do this with a portion of what they buy they plan to sell later or they do the whole amount?


3148  Economy / Speculation / Re: Ridiculous BTC Prices Predictions by Experts? on: December 29, 2017, 04:15:45 PM
Hey all now im thinking it might not be a bit ridiculous because there is this guy named james altucher who on cnbc was asked what he think btc price will hit.  He said thoughts on mcafees 1 million dollar prediction.  He mentioned he agreed and think it would hit 1 million easily.  This guy definitely from what i read is a genius.


So wouldn't that mean 1 million is actually possible if a guy like him agrees?


3149  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Average Amount of BTC Bought By New Investors Now? on: December 29, 2017, 04:10:03 PM
Bitcoin is all over the news.  They talk about it on cnbc and almost all the tv channels now.  They talk about how people are going to buy bitcoin now or soon and how their financial advisors are advising them to buy bitcoin.


What I want to know is those people who are now getting into bitcoin, what is the average amount of btc bought by new investors?  Like if someone says i just bought bitcoin or some bitcoin, how much do you think that means?  Obviously it isn't 1 btc since thats a lot of money.  I assume most people probably are buying say 100 or 200 dollars on average?  Some maybe do 1000 dollars?  Im talking about people that have been hearing about the btc talk but either did not buy a while back or just heard about it all over the news etc.


For example when you hear a friend say they bought some btc... how much is that sum would you think on average?  Im assuming maybe 50 dollars or 100 dollars?  Obviously i assume most people who first buy now probably do like 10 dollars or so?  Also those people that buy say 100 dollars worth of it, are they still called investors or not because that amount is very tiny.  I guess speculator is more the term for people who buy btc but probably less than say 1000 dollars?
3150  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I sell my altcoin for btc for upcoming fork? on: December 29, 2017, 04:51:22 AM
Was anyone able to get their segwit fork coin?  If so, what exchange or wallet did you use?  I heard hitbtc and binance gave users forked coins.  Did those users get any?

3152  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bittrex BTC Withdraw on: December 28, 2017, 03:43:16 PM
If you withdraw from bittrex, the fee is 0.001 btc.  You can't change the fees its a flat fee.  So does anyone know if bittrex sends btc quickly or not?
3153  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Bittrex BTC Withdraw on: December 28, 2017, 04:38:31 AM
So you are going to sell your btc for bitcoin cash on bittrex. 


Then withdraw bitcoin cash and send it to shapeshift to convert it to btc?


I'm confused here but the fee to convert on shapeshift is 1.5 to 2.5 percent it seems.  So wouldn't you withdrawing say 1000 usd worth of btc even cost more using shapeshift?
3154  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bittrex Segwit2x? on: December 28, 2017, 12:55:47 AM
When do you get your forked coins on hitbtc after the fork?  Also what is btc limit for withdraw if you dont submit verification?

3156  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin Fork Questions on: December 27, 2017, 11:41:05 PM
On wikipedia, there are tons of bitcoin forks that are listed and already happened.


We all know bitcoin cash and gold and many heard of bitcoin diamond.  First off, i assume most people only claimed bitcoin cash and gold right?  Thus diamond and the others they did not?  Here is what is amazing.  There were forks like united bitcoin and superbitcoin.  Then there is one that is segwig2 etc.  Most coins you get 1 for 1 for every bitcoin that you have.  But bitcoin diamond, you get 10 for every btc you have.


United bitcoin and superbitcoin are over 250 dollars each.  Bitcoin diamond is 40 dollars each or so but you get 10 for every 1 so that means 400 dollars for every BTC you have?  Segwig is close to 1000 dollars.  Then there are other coins that are forked that are on the list that i didn't even mentioned yet.  So if someone had say 2 BTC, that mean they are getting 500 dollars worth of unitedbitcoin and superbitcoin each.  800 dollars worth of bitcoin diamond each.  Then when they had the bitcoin cash and gold... they got more money depending on whether they sold it at the lower price or wait and btc cash went up.  And now segwig is close to 1000 dollars each.  So basically this is free money?  Or it isn't because if there were no forks, then btc price goes higher?


I mean imagine someone that had 5 or more BTC then.  I mean aren't they making a lot of money from owning btc?  I mean if you own 5 btc, isn't that like at least 5000 dollars or more assuming you get it and then sell it immediately?  Then there are even more of those other bitcoin forks that i didn't mentioned?


If there are this many forks, why would anyone even sell btc then because this is essentially free money right?
3157  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Low fee on: December 27, 2017, 09:48:55 PM
Hey all.  What are your thoughts on sending btc with a very low fee... then using via bitaccelator?
3158  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin Fork Coins on: December 27, 2017, 09:46:59 PM
Also aren't these essentially free money just for owning btc?
3159  Bitcoin / Electrum / Re: Bitcoin Fork Coins on: December 27, 2017, 09:45:55 PM
When are these forked coins going to be allowed to claim? 
3160  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Should I sell my altcoin for btc for upcoming fork? on: December 27, 2017, 04:20:35 PM
Well what about this then.  Sell the altcoin for btc right now.  Then after the day of the fork, then buy back the same altcoin.  Also should the altcoin be less price that before since people probably are selling their altcoin for btc?


Now assuming the altcoin stays same price, then obviously this would make sense right?
