Maybe you just look down on those who attempt to engage in self-improvement BTC trading practices?
I think that's an astute observation. I don't have the gumption to trade. Full-stop.
And this is why I suck at this.
This remains exact within expectations of what could happen.
Remember 3 weeks ago, we were down at $5,777-ish? O.k.?
On the overall scheme of things, we would have been buying BTC all the way down to $5,777 - or whatever closest proximate buy order was filled.. perhaps $6k might have been the closest, depending on how far apart your buy orders are placed.
Then when the BTC price went up, largely, from that point until nearly $8,500, then you would have been selling all the way up. Let's say for example, you did not hit the bottom, and you were only able to buy around $6,000, then you might have been selling from $6,500 up or maybe your orders are spread wider (because you don't like to be so active in your trades) and your sell orders would have begun to execute around $7k all the way up to $8,500..
Again, on the way up, let's say that your sell orders are spread kind of wide, and the closest one to hit was around $8k, and therefore, you might not be ready to buy back until $7k or something like that? Anyhow, if your orders are closer together, then more of them will trigger, but a $2,700 price swing (nearly a 50% swing in price) should have caused some orders to trigger - unless you are playing really large swings (and some folks do play the really large swings).
Currently, I have larger gaps between my buy and sell orders, but once the orders start to trigger, then subsequent orders are relatively close together.
Ok Jay. I'm going to start improving my Bitcorn position. No guts no glory. Wish me luck.
Edit: Let me know if you want your own action figure.
