I think everyone falls for the trap in thinking that they can just jump right in, buy low and sell for high.
The sad reality is that 90% of people end up just having overpriced coins that are useless.
Despite my spending hours and hours researching Technical Analysis, reading news about coins, etc, etc... I've still lost money attempting to make a quick buck day-trading.
The optimal strategy that I've chosen now is just to invest in what I truly believe in. I only risk what I can lose but if a coin I hold goes down, I don't worry because I believe in the intrinsic value behind the coin.
This is just the beginning my friends...
