Not sure if I should make a fresh post but seen as this thread is already active and gone on a tangent...
I've put a small amount of coin in btc-e just to try day trading for to see if I can turn $10 to $10.20 but have an issue.
I put a sell order in but no one seems to buy it even if it's below the high order.
Some trades have gone through but not sure of the format yet.
I thought I put a sell order in and whenever someone want's to buy BTC at around my price then I get a cut.
Here's the history of a previous sell I made but still not sure why other orders aren't selling.
BTC/GBP sell 0.00153402 BTC 377.422 GBP 0.57897289 GBP 11.07.14 21:37
BTC/GBP sell 0.0451778 BTC 377.422 GBP 17.05109563 GBP 11.07.14 21:31
BTC/GBP sell 0.0560092 BTC 377.422 GBP 21.13910428 GBP 11.07.14 21:13
Here's a buy I did
BTC/GBP buy 0.384819 BTC 371.733 GBP 143.04992132 GBP 14.07.14 21:55
I understand there needs to be a buyer but thought some of my cheaper sales would go through.
Also should I trade USD, EUR or GBP as I've done everything in GBP.
Or rather (I just noticed) that Volume: 2 BTC / 656 GBP but USD is Volume: 1748 BTC / 1077710 USD
I could do EUR as I have a European bank and UK but not USD so would have to convert USD to GBP at some point which then feels like forex.
Thanks
