Yeah i think most of us have been there when we first started out. It's a tough but important lesson to learn to not trade emotionally. Another important lesson to learn is patience, so just hold your coins & wait. Before you know it, you'll be back in profit again.

2018 is going to be a great year for Cryptocurrency IMO, especially the second half of the year when a lot of the big projects release major developments.

This market is still in its infancy so it's not too late at all!

1. Bitcoin (7 months)
2. Ethereum (7 months)
3. Siacoin (7 Months)
4. Byteball Bytes (6 Months)
5. NEO (5 months)
6. Blackmoon (5 months)
7. BNB (5 months)
8. OMG (5 Months)
9. FlypMe (4 months)
10. Zencash (4 Months)
11. Bread (2 Months)
12. Blockport (1 week)

Everything else is either short-term trading or only small percentage of my portfolio.

Stick to using reputable exchanges, don't overtrade & focus more on long-term investing than day trading plus get yourself a hardware wallet to keep your crypto safe.

I'm so glad this ponzi scheme finally collapsed, although I do feel bad for the naive investors who failed to notice it was an obvious ponzi & lost a lot of money. Will be interesting to see what happens in that lawsuit against those YouTube Bitconnect shills. 

Yeah you can't really go wrong with NEO IMO. I bought lots around the $30 mark, but really wish I had more to invest, even at this price point. I don't think it's unrealistic to envision NEO being $1000+ in the next year or two.

Investing in ICO's can certainly be very profitable but there is much higher level of risk. Just remember that the vast majority of ICO projects will ultimately fail, not to mention the amount of scams you need to watch out for. If I was you i'd keep the majority of my holdings in existing coins/projects & only invest a small portion of your portfolio in ICO's. Oh, and make sure you do your research!

This is like comparing apples & oranges IMO, but my personal opinion is that ETH would be the better investment.

If you need the money urgently then no shame in selling & taking profit. If you don't need to access it soon then just hold & wait.

In the last few days i've started seeing a lot more crypto & ICO related ads on facebook so i'm not sure if the ban was reversed or if a few adds slipped through the cracks & FB hasn't identified them as ICO ads yet.

NEO is my biggest crypto holding & i'm extremely bullish on it for the next couple of years. Will it surpass Bitcoin? Who knows....right now that is hard to envision, but it's possible.

My trading plan is simple really...buy low, sell high

In all honestly though, I've really scaled back the amount of trading I do & am most just long-term investing now.

You mentioned you haven't bought BTC, ETH or LTC as you don't see them providing sufficient returns, but if you'd invested your original money of $3000 4 months ago in one of them & just done nothing but hold your coins you'd now have the following returns:

BTC: $5,482
ETH: $9,045
LTC: $12,155

Here's some basic tips I have for you:

1. Don't trade emotionally - Any trade you make should be well thought out & based on strong conviction & fundamentals. Freaking out & selling coins because the price has dipped or FOMOing in and buying coins just because they are pumping will always end in heartbreak.

2. Buy low, sell high - Sounds simple right? But from the information you've provided us you've basically been doing the exact opposite. Invest in coins that you believe have a strong team & a positive future, but buy them when the price has dipped. Avoid buying a coin during or after a massive pump & just learn to be patient & wait for the price to retrace.

3. Don't base your investment decision purely on coin price - A lot of inexperienced investors think something like ripple will given them a massive return on investment over something like Bitcoin purely because XRP is currently less tha $1 while BTC is over $10,700. They have this misconception that it would be a lot easier for XRP to go up $1 than it would for BTC to go over $20k & give them the same return. It just doesn't work like that. You MUST consider the overall supply of a coin before trying to decide if it is over or under valued.

4. Don't invest in shitcoins - Stick to those in the top 20 market cap, or those coins that have good team & project behind them.

5. Don't over trade - As my example above showed, if you'd have just bought & held rather than traded then you'd be looking a big profits now rather than big losses. Unless you are a skilled & experienced trader then I'd avoid trading entirely. Just buy coins you believe in long term, put them on a hardware wallet & leave them there

 

Get yourself a Trezor or Ledger hardware wallet without a doubt.

I think 2018 is going to be a great year for Cryptocurrency. It's certainly started off slow after that crazy bull run to end 2017, but I think by 2nd half of the year we will really see some growth.

It's not too late at all, there's still so much potential growth in this market & we're still so way away from full mainstream adoption.

I don't anticipate this ICO going past Round 1, or if it doesn then round 2 will be for such a negligible amount that will get taken up instantly. Looking forward to this ICO & really hope I can be one of the lucky 25k, but knowing my luck I won't be 

When i started out with Crypto 6 months ago, I spent a long time learning everything I could about cryptocurrencies, exchanges & trading. Once I was comfortable & gained some experience, I found myself day trading on a regular basis but I've found with time that I've really slowed down that activity & instead tend to now just focus on long-term holdings in select coins that have strong fundamentals that I strongly believe in. I'll still day trade from time to time if a good opportunity presents itself, but at least 95% of my portfolio is locked away on a hardware wallet for long-term safe keeping.
