They are trying to break $20k resistance level but bulls are still strong and this may still lead back to $40k or perhaps more than 40k usd. The only question is when, we don't know that yet.

There are also fuds circulating about Grayscale's bitcoin trust growth which may prevent bitcoin to finally surge up again to $40,000 but then again this won't take long and bitcoin will still go that new ATH as we see whales gonna move again their btc.

Noong kasagsagan ng bago pa lang promotions ng IOST, meron akong holdings neto dati. Two years ago ata yon, pero hindi ko ito hinold ng matagal at inantay ko lang magpump ng 20% then sell ko din kaagad. After that, medyo nag lie low nga tong coin na to at hirap ang pag angat neto ng ilang taon. Good decision din n naka buy ako ng coin at low price at tumubo ako kahit papano noon dahil ramdam kong wala itong gaanong contributions sa crypto market kaya biglang dump at hindi na umangat.

Kung may holdings ka pang IOST at nag bullish recently, sana naging wais ang ilan sa pagbenta na pwede rin namang ibili pa ng ibang coin.

Tons of trading bots were advertised in the internet with different strategies, different prizes but all the same that doesn't guaranteed sure profits. It could possibly you buy some bots with good scripts but only give you low profits or can definitely be not reliable as the market is really hard to handle. Ive tried buying one trading bot (not that popular) and just burnt few dollars to try it out  now, Im regretting to buy that bot and realized it is better to trade by myself rather than relying on that.

On the other hand there are still legit trading bots that give you a good profits like others are suggesting. If you want to try one of them, search for the feedbacks first.

Yep, compared to the other crypto exchanges, Coinbase has some issue regarding different matters. One of it was the KYC and if you wanted to have smooth transactions with this exchange, make sure you comply all the needed details. And make sure also to read their FAQS and TOS as there are some who aren't aware that Coinbase has the right to purposely hold your coins whenevee you didn't comply or if you don't follow their TOS.

DYOR, perhaps you can find other aside from that that has less issues.

Purposely lost the wallet or not, the bitcoins stored in that wallet will just stay there forever and burned if doesn't recovered and doesn't move. But I doubt that you'll not regret it to recover if tons of bitcoins are stored in that wallet. Transactions are irreversible and you cant actually get your bitcoin without reaccessing the wallet with your own private keys.

There are some situations that a user threw away their computer with a btc wallet on it, or a scenario wherein they forgot the private keys, etc.

It is significant to know your main purpose of holding.

Do you perhaps wanted to achieve enough profits and buy some things from that profit? Then there is an answer to that, hold longer. I think you are still new to this kins of investments. That's why you are kibda worried and panicking when bitcoin drops. You are not alone experiencing to be deficit when btc is falling. But there is akways an option to "hold".

You do not have to worry if you are a kong term holder, but if you can't patiently wait for your own bitcoin to atleaat pump and has a profit atleast, then it is you at the end who'll gonna decide.

If the balance of yours disappeared after the migration of Idex, better to directly message the support about your issue. But if you didnt do any migration but still your balance is missing, try refreshing your browser and open it up in incognito or I saw there twitter account where in they manage to answer some issues of users. Try to reach them out.

Seems you have the same issues with theses users but that's wayback 2018.

And to think he's the only one who are so lucky to take home the prize! With thousands or perhaps millions of people who are betting in lotterry and that one winner surely is super lucky.. $739 million clean and less tax already is a huge decent win. Hope that guy will gonna be wise handling the money. It can definitely change his life in an instant.

And about the options, whatever the guy choose to take the prize. I believe he will definitely choose the right one. Afterall, 29million for annually is still a big one.

Thats what I see it as a problem. Setting up your stop loss to the neareast price where in it can possibly triggered suddenly. I usually had bad entry of stop loss too. But I have read one thread here in forum wherein he explained the right stop loss entry level. He also showed some indicators and some lines drawn as to where we should put right stop loss when short or long entry.

However, this might be a good article for us as a trader so we can manage well our trading using stop loss;
- Determining where to set stop loss

It's possibly to go down at that level. If other exchanges are also delisting ripple, that may actually affect the performance. Kraken is one of the good exchanges. Honestly, after the SEC issue, haven't even attempt to buy again xrp. If the issue will cool down and they win this lawsuit it would be a good news and will bounce up it's progress.

Well, the bitcoin's pull back is a great chance to do that. However, if you are sure eth will gonna bull run and your technical analysis shows btc/eth pair will give you a good profit, then why not?

Speculations that btc is extending the correction to $25k, if this pull back will continue and eth has done outperforming btc from the past.

Check this TA and chart of btc/eth pair:

https://www.tradingview.com/chart/ETHBTC/epdzxa7Y-eth-looking-good-on-btc/

It's okay. (Tapping my shoulder and not worrying much)
I've seen worst than this. Im still confidence that price will still go further up and will go back to $40k. Though many speculations that it will go bounce down to $20k level but since a long term holder like me indeed knew this kind of circumstances. It doesn't do any good if we tend to panic and sell our btc at loss.

There's always a choice to make. Holding even longer is what Ive chosen. No regrets.

Not only that. There are so many factors affecting the price movemnents of bitcoin. One of those are the FUDS circulations, whales manipulation, big exchanges movements and trading volumes.
Those ups and downs movements make sense because it gives us the reason and opportunity to make meaningful decisions.

Have you tried the hugging strat? Like having two entries with opposite ways? It's risky though so you may atleast practicing that strat and wouldn't recommend to non pro trader.

Perhaps change your technical analysis. If at some point youre having a profit while not reading your chart, that's just a coincidence that you listened to your instinct and made a good profit. And if youre asking if whales are manipulating it? Probably is.

Sideways or sudden drops and pumps are normal, it's just that I can see you wrongly enter the market and doesn't have any stop loss, do you?

Then ignore the topics you think that doesn't seems to be useful to you and stick with the ones that are beneficial and have a sense. This forum has a moderators of course, you can also report useless  or repeated topics all you want. If you explore this forum this a button at the right side.

On the other hand, members are usually replying to those topics that are new and popped up in the first page. Whenever there is a bull run or bearish moment of bitcoin, expect unworthy topics but of course moderators are doing their job to stay this community clean and have a healthy conversations through meaningful topics.

Perhaps this precious gems can be true or not. Depending the number of investors who'll gonna buy these or ignore it. The potential of it can be seen but that's not how it could become a good buy today.

With all of the altcoins hidden, you can also check this out with explanation as to why these coins too are considered hidden gems.

I've tried paying bitcoin many times. It's something that fulfill your curiousity and doesn't regret that I used it for a good cause. Though fees are quite high you are slightly regretting for the transfer of it.

And anyhow, since it is valuable at this moment, it is best just to hold it and consider it as store of value rather than spending it.

Eth is still bullish since last year it is performing well. While litecoin has rallied and other altcoins showed some good turn, altcoin season has been started already. But more of them still in a verge of struggling to recover like xrp.

Bitcoin price is hiking fast and some altcoins are still following it's steps because of the high scalability that makes it in demand causing altcoins to be bullish too.

The bottom line here is,

Our future is in our own hands.

Our approach in life especially our decisions related to cryptocurrency trading and investments is significant because it depends on how it will gonna affect our financial status in upcoming years. Like having a good plan and decisions for holding bitcoin for long term and then rebuying at the dip for future profits.

If you have local wallet, then converting it into fiat and hold it there until you decide to  buy bitcoin when it decrease. Or you can convert it into stable coins like tusd and stay it that way until the time you'll gonna buy more bitcoin around $15k.
 
 Or if you have your bank connected to your local wallets, that's also a good way to cash it out.
