Yes, that is where trading comes in. The thing is that you can make huge money today and by tomorrow, you may just be back to square one. The altcoin market is very volatile, and anyone who wants to be making money from the market should always be better enough to know how to trade and play their card pretty well to get the best from the market.

The profit can be huge as well as the loss, but with good knowledge without emotions, there is a whole lot to get from it. Some traders may make huge profits some times but if you follow a professional traders who are all known for consistent performances which means steady profits even they are low time to time.

Who really cares if it does as that would be giving us the chance to still keep buying more of it anyway. One thing with this market is that nothing is certain but in the real sense, $1k is a whole lot to go and if we are even to see the worst case scenario, it would be around $2k - $3k. We still have a long way to go and we cannot be assuming for the market and when it is actually time, we will all get to know the way the market is going to end up playing out.

History may repeat itself and markets too but not exactly in the same manner. I am sure we are not going to have replica of 2014 in this year. This year going to be another unique year. Yes, my target for 2018 for bitcoin prices is new ATH which will be around $25k levels.

It looks like you are actually seeing something different because from the chart I am looking at, we have had a rising wedge after the previous bounce on the 24th of June and we just broke out from the wedge to the downside and that does not look like a possibility of $10k at all. We have $6850 as a strong resistance so far, and another one around $7200 based on the downtrend line of the channel we broke out from initially and even further before even thinking of $10k.

Like a professor of mine always say back then, we just keep saying common sense, but sense indeed is not actually common because very few have it. It perturbs me that we get to see people who do the same things over and over again and they simply will be expecting a different result.

The buy at the peak and sell at the bottom and they keep complaining to everyone, and how about they just stopped complaining and do the opposite? Well, like I said, sense is not indeed common.

When a lot of you are actually saying things, you just say it from the normal sense perspective and not with some technicality.
I really do not understand that last part you said though, but one thing I am sure of is that this market is still in a very huge bear trend and positive signs at times like this can only be happening in the short term.

For those who want to be getting in at a good price though, may be picking it little bit downward, otherwise wait for the solid bottom and support for a rebound but I am sure we aren’t there yet.

Control can never be accidental, but obviously intentional. The idea of whales controlling the market is to take advantage of the small fish.

It is more like their territory as they hold the button and they can do whatever they want with it since they have all it takes to do so, based on the position they hold and the wealth they have amassed with it. However, the market itself is volatile and people tend to respond fast to market movements most of the time.

You must be a day trader then. I am never a fan of day-trading anyway but I understand how the necessity to have a bigger screen comes into play. Being a long term and some terms a short/midterm trader, making use of mobile applications really brings a lot of ease into my trading life.

For the way things have been over time, when it comes to logging into exchanges every time, or having to make use of different exchanges for security reasons, it can make it tiring, but all the same, the fact that I can use applications like tab trader makes things swift.

Agreed that things are accelerating pretty fast and even the bear market when compared to the previous ones is going faster than anticipated which makes it look like we actually may be recovering pretty faster than before. I am not sure how things will develop in the long term anyway, but as far as things are presently, we sure do know nothing is predictable.

We may think something now and it may actually end up being otherwise, so we only have the trend to make use of. Bears may continue their dominance but bulls also will come into action for time to time hence we may have bull trend over all even bears will never lose their powers in between.

It is really not a big deal but it becomes a big deal if the government decides to not just want to be lenient enough to at least come up with taxation policies or laws with respect to bitcoin and cryptocurrency as a whole which will benefit everyone including the government themselves.

Nevertheless, some of them are so blind with control, which the only thing they are just after is their pocket and not to give the citizens the freedom they deserve. However, with or without tax, the freedom is here and no one can take it away from us except ourselves.

There are so many things I have learned when it comes to economics that I needed no single teacher to put me through. One thing a lot of people do not understand is that as you keep listening to news, financial or general, you get to learn new things every day and with more reference to some books to at least understand some few things you may not know, you get to do better.

Moreover in high school, it was important to do the basics anyway, but I do not see it as a necessity when it comes to tertiary level.

Well, if it is by experience, those who have been gambling for years and are addicted still should not be addicted at all. It is actually those who want to learn from the experience that will always know that they should not be focusing too much on winning from gambling but like I said, that is if they actually are ready to learn from it.

Gambling has a way of playing with one's mind and if you cannot tune the mind in such a way that you can control those greedy impulse by knowing from the onset that it is just a game of luck, then you will be in for serious level of addiction.

Stay strong in gambling and stay poor based on your definition of every losing streak must come to an end.
However, if you have a limit and it reached that limit with a huge losing streak, it is always better not to push further and just simply assume the winning was not just meant to be at that point in time.

A lot of people will want to push further to see if the possibility of increasing the bet can bring back what they have lost, but it is better to remember that the more the bet is being increased, the more the chances of losing everything.

Yeah, the best thing is to stay realistic rather putting you in too much pressure of winning most of the time. Gambling generally comes with more possibilities of losing than winning and anyone who cannot cope with that mindset should better not be gambling at all. The winning may be huge but the chances are very low. The thing about the whole thing is that gambling in itself do have a way of playing with the mind, and having that wrong mindset right from the onset sets you up to get burned easily.

Altcoin was never suitable for long term holding, even if not all of them, but most of them and that is why a lot of people who buy at the peak always end up complaining a lot.

The altcoin market is filled with a lot of pump and dump coins and tokens since there are so many of them with no product and a lot of them also with product is still not being used well in real life and that is what would bring about sustainable demand and rise in value for some of them with product and until then, it is more of buying the dip and looking forward to the pump.

Privacy has really been a huge challenge for a very lot of newbies in this space and I wonder why some people do not equip themselves with enough knowledge to be able to know how to do better when it comes to security of their funds or their wallets.

In fact, his last statement of not trusting anyone with their crypto, laptop or password shows that he must have by himself ended up screwing things up by not paying so much attention to security and that is one bad move to make in this space.

Well, maybe you could start by listing some of them so we can take you seriously. One thing is that altcoins have their own space to fill and so is bitcoin. The thing with some of the altcoins is that they are not beneficial in anyway and they are just bitcoin clone trying to do what bitcoin could not do, but I guess since they are not going to end up being used on large scale as bitcoin, we may not actually get to know if they are for real or not.

Other altcoins with products anyway helps the space to grow most especially when they come with very unique products that will end up being usable in the long term.

Quite helpful indeed. So far, it is obvious that those who invested earlier in exchange tokens or coins are really making shit load of money and the good thing about it is that they can easily get to hold for as long as they want since it is a utility token and would always be in demand for a very long time as long as the exchange is existing and it is being used widely just like binance.

I actually thought at first that gaming would actually come out to be a very good one, but it is what it is and for real, most gaming ICO has been shitty.

Experience is a whole lot that helps one in getting better but that usually come from learning first. Becoming a professional at anything is not a day’s job as that could take years and the funny thing about trading is that just as any other profession, you will just have to keep learning and learning until you just keep getting better at it.

It is more like being a doctor, as it would take years of practice and more learning before even becoming good at what you do and trading is not an exception.

It is interesting though to see such research and the outcome. However, it is funny to see that with all these KYC, data are actually being sold.

Nevertheless, I am not surprised that such things tend to happen but what I do not understand is how they were able to come up with the countries and either attach wallet addresses to such owners and knowing if they actually did sell or not on exchanges unless the data was actually gotten directly from exchanges.

I still feel there is a lot of bias in this, knowing anyway that developing countries are more prone to selling faster than developed countries. I wish I could see the link to the whole analysis and how it was actually carried out or else it is just baseless assumption.

I have checked the results so far and how they did. The two main shock came in when virtus pro basically forgot how to play cs:go . They both lost to epsilon (reasonable outcome I doubt they worth the odds) but when they lost to friendly fire it was a big shock to everyone and you getting to know that and winning that bet is great.

However I think when you bet for ENCE to win against NaVi that was a bit strecth I mean its NaVi we are talking about, they can change all their players and put and you me in it and they can still manage to win a game just because of their name

You have some great picks and you have some risky ones, if people follow you and only bet on the under 2.5 bets, they could get amazing returns if you ask me.
