I think stop losses are bad for two reasons:
1. A stop loss is literally a pre-planned buy high, sell low.
2. You are throwing away your ability to make decisions.
In general, basing buy/sell decisions on only the current price is not rational trading. Whatever has happened to arrive at the current price cannot be changed or rectified by buying or selling. Buy and sell decisions should be based on the expected future price.

It is possible with Ethereum and ERC20 tokens ( https://theethereum.wiki/w/index.php/ERC20_Token_Standard). Keep in mind that you are selling securities, so if you are in the U.S. or selling to U.S. investors, you will need to comply with SEC regulations. That will be the more difficult part. |

Look at the destination address in a block explorer. If you don't see your transaction, then it has not been sent or you sent to a different address. If you see your transaction, but it is "unconfirmed", then you just have to wait. If you see your transaction and it is confirmed, then something is wrong with your wallet (maybe it just needs to be refreshed), or the address is not in your wallet and you sent the bitcoins to some other wallet. Would backing up exodus before the btc showed up effect this? Also does that 12 word phrase include all crypto currency I buy or is it specific to eth? What would you guys do in this situation? It was $266 worth of btc...
Backing up the wallet does not affect its operation. Typically, the 12-word phrase is specific to the wallet and is used for all the currencies that the wallet tracks. |

Say for example, I bought $1000 worth of Bitcoin at $15,000.00.
It goes up to say $16,000.00.
What's the best formula to calculate my notional account balance (excluding transaction fees, to keep it simple)?
Thanks
new balance = old balance x new price / old price In your example, new balance = $1000 x $16000 / $15000 = $1066.67 But it might be easier to just keep track of the amount of btc and its value. btc = sale amount / btc price Then anytime you want to know how much you have new balance = btc x new price In your example, you bought $1000 worth of BTC at $15000, so you have btc = $1000 / $15000 = 0.06666666 BTC and the price is now $16000, so your BTC is now worth new balance = 0.06666666 x $16000 = $1066.67 |

Thanks people I will look into the knowledge shared and especially a system where I do not need to download but works on a website. Much appreciated.
Do you mind sharing on average with an investment of 500usd how much you can make per day?
There is no such thing as magic money making software, and there is no trading system that works all the time. Real trading works like this: you spot a opportunity and you take advantage of it. But, as more people spot the same opportunities, the return eventually drops to 0. Then, you need to look for new and different opportunities. You can't buy software that looks for new and different opportunities. |

The big exchanges are big enough and liquid enough for someone to sell bitcoins worth $ millions over a short period of time. Gemini has an auction twice per day.

A Ponzi scheme is where early investors are paid by later investors.
No. It is not. A pyramid scheme is a scheme where early investors are paid by later investors (and the investors know it is a pyramid scheme). A ponzi scheme is like a pyramid scheme except the operator lies about where the money comes from. What is a 'Ponzi Scheme'
A Ponzi scheme is a fraudulent investing scam promising high rates of return with little risk to investors. The Ponzi scheme generates returns for older investors by acquiring new investors. This is similar to a pyramid scheme in that both are based on using new investors' funds to pay the earlier backers. For both Ponzi schemes and pyramid schemes, eventually there isn't enough money to go around, and the schemes unravel.
If you think that Bitcoin is a scam, you will have a much better time arguing that it is a pyramid scheme rather than a ponzi scheme. |

Bitcoin is not very good right now for payments because of the high fees. It might be better to go with other popular coins such as Litecoin, Dash, or Bitcoin Cash.

By contribute, do you mean donate? Most people believe they are investing in an ICO, but they are really donating.  |

After it reaches it max supply It will most probably be worthless. As it cannot accept micro-transactions anymore and this will cause many people lose interest in it. I see the price going down and the chain turning off.
I assume you are trolling. If not, then I suggest you read more and post less. |

The benefit of a fee is very simple. It prevents spam. If there is no cost to making a transaction, then anyone can fill up all the blocks at no cost and at the exclusion of other transactions. When people compete for space in a block by paying a fee then then only the important transactions tend to end up in the block chain.

Consider that 100's of thousands of person sign up at Coinbase every day, and all of these people need hand-holding because they have no idea what they are doing. There is no way that any company can handle that load successfully.
Bitfinex did the right thing by halting new accounts. They lose potential customers, but at least they don't go broke trying to support them.

It is probably a scam. Don't let him send them any more money. It is clearly a scam. Scammers get all the money and investors get worthless coins. |

When people say that cryptocurrencies will replace banks, they are talking about the aspects of storage and transfer of money. Banks will still lend money, whether it is fiat or crypto.

I have been with Genesis mining since April. Does anyone else feel like they have been slowly reducing payouts?
Is that because the difficulty has risen, or do you mean something else? |

the only thing left is for LN to be adopted more.
LN is still vaporware. It has to be implemented before it can be adopted. |
|

LN will be fast, but it is not clear that it will be reliable or cheap. The complexity, availability, and reliability of the connection might make it difficult to make a transaction. It is possible that opening and closing a channel could be very expensive.
