You cannot exactly predict the price of the cryptocurrency but you can know the trend that it will go. With Technical Analysis you will know the trend, maintenance of a trend, and also the reversal of the trend as you will have some useful indicators. Technical Analysis which involves an analysis of its price charts particularly the Japanese candlestick price charts will serve as your guide in your next buy/sell decision.


I don't have much knowledge on trading and i don't know how to read the charts, what I'm just reading is the bug and sell (real time changes) and if Im going to buy some coins, I always check their tweets or their FB page of they have something new and then buy it because I think if they will improve something the coin will pump. I always keep myself updated on what will be their development or ongoing developments, one of the most important part is the long term goal of the coins platform. This is where it all began. If the service or the platform is good, the coin will pump of course.

There are specialists who say that the YUAN is going to replace the dollar, what would happen with the cryptography if that happens?

Cryptocurrecies and fiat are two different world, though they ar einteracting in exchanges BTC wont give a damn on dollars price because the price discovery of BTC is based on its supply and its users even if the dollar value will deflate up to 10 times its value now if bitcoins user and its demand wiwill continue to grow it wont affect its value and its exchange to dollar will be more because BTC price is up and dollar is down, on the other hand what can really affect the value of BTC is its users and the market cap.(DEMAND)
43  Economy / Economics / Re: What is your best investment strategy? on: December 26, 2017, 05:08:30 PM
I just go for simple tricks and data analysis where I think of when to buy bitcoins and when to sell them. I keep storing bitcoins more and more when it's price drops below my optimum level. When it goes higher than that I exchange it for real cash only if I need it. The main is just HOLD

But sometimes, it's scary to sell at ATH especially large amount of crypto, because sometimes I feel that they wont dip, by the way this is the best strategy I know so far and I have a plan this year. I will cash out some of my alts and then do some business in order to have some income and then Buy some crypto through cash when there is a good one in the market mixing the real world into cryptocurrency world would be great but I think this strategy will need some serious discipline and experience because I might lose my two birds in one flight if this doesn't ends well.

For the meantime, trading some pretty good coins is a choice for me, it takes week to have profit but I'm not rushing, good things comes to those who wait right?
44  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What are your plans with your Bitcoin? on: December 26, 2017, 04:20:36 PM
I just wanna sell my bitcoin at 30k$ and buy some good altcoin.

I will be selling at 1M $ because I have some really good feeling about the improvement of the network of BTC and its price in this coming 2018.

Of course I have a plan to my bitcoin I will holding it as much as I could. Because in many years I know that the value of bitcoin will be increasing. Because I will see bitcoin thaw will be legalize in my country . And after that I will sell it and get a business just to secure my family future. I will be a great provider to my family.
Thats what Im thinking too, but this past weeks I have some thoughts regarding this, long term holding and then make it as a provider. This ain't right, I must hold BTC till 60 (if ever I will be that old) because no one knows what coming in the next few years and it might be at least a 2M$ in the next few years. Who knows? So I think it is better to have some other provider instead of BTC because its like a treasure that is much more precious than gold, it would be a waste if you will just sell because of some random (need for money). So it is better to keep for some emergency and then work hard to have as many BTC as we can.

Hey !

I'd like to know what you guys would think about this idea I got.
Basically, it'd be a service to buy stuff from Amazon using BTC.
You wouldn't have to convert your BTC and have a bank account or anything like that - you would simply send the amount of BTC to a generated address as to validate your payment and your order would be on its way.
Perhaps you could link an amazon account with my service as to have access to the support and features offered by amazon.

What do you guys think?

This is Everybody wish, (almost everybody wish) because BTC is making on its way through every parts of the world people want platform and services that accepts BTC, this is also why ALTS are being created because they are offering a service that can accept or use crypto as a mode of payment. But when we talk about the transaction time and miners fee. Using BTC as a shopping medium in online stores is inefficient.
46  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to control greed on gambling? on: December 15, 2017, 10:32:09 PM
difficult to control it, when we win we can withdraw it. but you will refund your money when you get loss or want to play again, even greater than profit. set a winning target and immediately withdraw may be a good way to reduce greed


Setting limits is a really good system to use. But you always have to ask yourself.. Why do you gamble? Do you want to have fun or do you do it only to win money? If you want to have fun, start up a game and reach your limit within 2 minutes.. Do you continue play? Or do you follow with the limits? That's where most will have issues I believe, I know I have.

Asking yourself sometimes or reminding yourself why you are gambling will not help. If the mindset you brought into gambling was not right in the first place, then there is nothing such a person can do when they are pretty much involved unless they stop totally. Until such a person realises he or she is having fun and either they win or loose, no problem, then a limit can be set, and anything apart from that won't count as some people out of greed will just want to continue to keep winning until they get burnt.
Greedy will never have an end , it is happened continuously if you keep following your eagerness.
You should try to learn from the past and always be grateful to feel it is enough , take it and just leave full of joy.
Don't force yourself for the sake of making your near impossible dream to come true, just be realistic , gambling is not your way to make money , all you will achieve iss just greedy and bad feelings.

Yup they are just gambling to satisfy their own selfish desire.
Just imagine if you will solve what is the probability of every games in casino, if you are not rich enough and having a problem on what you are going to eat tomorrow then stay away in gambling. Do some work offline or online, the trip to success don't rely on some card game or roulette, you need to work it yourself and if you cant stop your habits then get some help with your friends. There are always a way so there's no way to say to gambling.
47  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What to do when prices are falling on: December 15, 2017, 09:41:44 PM
Hello. I have a folio of BTC, ETH, NEO and some alts. I've been watching at Bitcoin since 2015 but bought only at this summer (and the last move was quite bad, I bought some BTC for $4600). I try to study, watch vids, read forum and twitters. Chris Dunn has a vid on the topic but nothing really specific. I'm interested in some ideas about what to do when prices are falling.  Sell alts and hold bitcoin? Short? (and if yes, so the next question is how to learn how to short?).

In my personal experience, I think this purely depends on what alts is falling or if BTC is falling (I don't trade BTC now, prices and fees are too high). If the alts go on red and BTC is up then choose the best alternative coin that has a potential to grow. And make your BTC as a payment if you do have some funds, and still it is the best way to acquire the most coins in a cheaper price so you better know what you are buying. dont forget to ride the dump and never forget to sell your coins before the dump is really dip and then your profit can give you a buy back on some coins. The market is really volatile and I think we must be extra careful these days but to some traders volatile markets are the best way to earn money.
48  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: ✨✨✨ Are we wasting resources to make digital currencies? ✨✨✨ on: December 14, 2017, 07:32:32 AM
It appears that mining costs and the creation of crypto currencies consumes a lot of resources Cry

We have very little resources remaining in the world for each other and future generations. Does it make sense to waste resources like this? Could we do this in a cheaper and more economically friendly manner? And does the value of bitcoin directly correlate to the amount of resources and man hours that are destroyed in order to create it?

The adoption of cryptocurrencies are still small so that only medium to average companies are doing the mining, but still there are so many alternatives energy too, it just need a lot of budget in order to implement that. A solar powered mining farm is a pretty good example or that and some people are using the alternatives.
Creating the cryptocurrencies? Wasted? NO this is just its development and the efforts are not wasted. Look at the potential it can bring that to fiat. Destroyed what? Man hours? no what is destroying the world are the crude oils and fossil fuels. If we're serious about having the alternative supplies or using it, the government can do it in a mere time, the only problem is that the resources is a trillion dollar industry. There are so many businesses that will be affected, and then money will speaks again.
49  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: Join the next big ICO on: December 14, 2017, 03:59:49 AM
Join the next big ICO

https://bitwinner.io/

A mineable token is a very good token, by the way are you planning to launch a bounty here?
 and yes

in my opinion very few information about the project is provided.
the information of team is not on the site, nor in any other document.
this is very important.
you do not have your own separate topic here?

continuation ...
and yes informations are important, you need to provide more details especially the team, because we had a lot of rough ICO that just don't say a word after the crowdsale. And some people here cant afford to lose some anymore.
50  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: Want to launch your own crypto (AltCoin) with no money? on: December 14, 2017, 03:30:54 AM
just out of curiosity, how much programming knowledge do you need to launch a coin?

Different languages and web programming I think? Extensive knowledge in cryptography, front end and high end and security? We are dealing with money so we must have optimum protection and very great coding skills to ensure every transactions and the assets of every member of the platform that you are going to make.

Do you have a great idea and ambition to launch your own cryptocurrency (AltCoin) by yourself or with your team members, but no money to risk? Do you dream of launching the next Electroneum, RaiBlocks or BitCoin Sharp? (BTCS... I totally made the last one up  Cool)

  • You should live in a country where it is legal to issue cryptocurrency. (USA is ruled out. I live here. If It were legal, I would be launching it myself)
  • You should be interested in launching actual cryptocurrency (AltCoin), not ICO token.
  • You should have some creative twist. For example, may be your cryptocurrency is to benefit all the dog walkers, or, all the citizens of your country... or start your own virtual micronation (which will become real once we can actually travel to Mars and settle there)... or all citizens of your city etc.

You pay me in your new cryptocurrency for my services, no money needed Grin I can even set up a server and host a website etc if you don't have money for that. Yes I can code. I can take care of all technical aspects but not marketing, not promotion, not legal/compliance expertise. I can help a little with marketing and promotion but I cannot help you decide any legal matters.

If your venture fails, I won't demand any money (or any other compensation) from you for my coding, website, server setup etc. I am not afraid of failing and risking a small amount of my money (for website, server setup)

Just because I can code, it does not mean that I am willing to code for six months. The key to success is to quickly launch something and promote it fast, rather spending months coding something mildly innovative. We can start with existing code base of many successful projects in 99% of the cases. There is no need to re-invent the wheel. Please message me directly with your ideas for launching your own AltCoins.

NOTE: I have a limit of 2 messages per day. You can email me at vxr480@gmail.com

Most of the best coins and platforms that have existed takes not hours or days but years. It is better to have you own idea, get some experience on the existing platforms but have a unique one. The blockchain is still developing so you must code it yourself. You can do it man.

Please go away, retard.

You'll be alright.

Looks like btc is failing becouse of your analysis

A possibility because some (most of the traders are here) and yes if they want to (or if they will ride on the analysis here and an overall nod to decisions have happened, there they will sell or buy and the process go on because of analysis here.  Grin

Vanga made four posts today.  And the language is crazy.
I think just reading his stuff, even if I don't really understand it, puts me in a better frame of mind.

Me too, I have a very little knowledge on what he is saying and of course I'm learning too and I'm enjoying every discussions, and sometimes they are making a war of words. As a newbie trader, it's good to learn here.
52  Economy / Economics / Re: Why Should I Choose Bitcoin ?? on: December 11, 2017, 01:21:23 PM
Because bitcoin is a new era currency, I'm not surprised if the current price has reached $ 10,000, maybe before the year ends the price will reach $ 14,000. this is a hope for us all to continue to hold and sell in 2018 when the price is more than $ 35k.

In the opening he includes some reasons on why he is choosing BTC, some includes prices, oppurtunity, investment and many other things that is benificial to human. But I think one of the main reason is because it is the real time changes and even us dont choose fiat from the start, because we think that it is the best way to make a payment. And now we have the blockchain, everything have changed. And this changes is being adopted by everyone. Its not the price, it is just the side effects. The truth is we have found something more useful than fiat.
53  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Hackers are active these days. on: December 11, 2017, 10:31:07 AM
Lots of fake websites
Lots of bad backdoored programs and e-mail fishing scams
If you visit a website check the address to make absolutely sure your on the real website.
Trust no one!


And always bookmarked your sites that you are regularly using. Have some legit antivirus if you don't have enough knowledge in computer software and hardware. Double check your where you paste your address, do some preventive maintenance in your BTC, trasactions depends on how secure the sites we are using, if we did our part then it's up to them or to the trading site if they will get hack.
54  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: I quit trading on: December 10, 2017, 03:46:57 PM
Wow. If you still have those 40 btc with you, look at where you are right now! Nothing to do but to hold and wait for retirement! Or start a business. Even go on a cruise.
Lol, everyone seems to be saying the same thing on this thread (not everyone though) but this was posted around 2015 September, and I believe Bitcoin was still at the rate of, maybe $500 or $1000 (not quite sure). So this means that if he kept those 40 BTC from then till now, he would have recovered more than what ever it is he invested, infact he would be one of the richest in the Bitcoin Community.

And I wonder those people here who have a lot of BTC back in 2010 to 2014, there are even guys here who have a 1000 plus BTC up. Its sad when you know that you must hold your BTC or if he hold is BTC, again now one knows what will really happen and sometimes the urgent need of money will make always make you to cash out and turn your BTC into fiat. A year or two have a lot of changes that have happened and I don't think anyone can hold all their BTC that far unless they are really rich in real life before in this community.
55  Economy / Speculation / Re: Calling top at $16500 on: December 09, 2017, 08:01:48 PM
Well a correction is obviously incoming after the past few days. But obviously it's not going to go down that low haha. I expect just as all the other crashes this year it will go back to the base price of the current boom - $11k-$12k. It will recover back up to the ATH in a matter of days or weeks and we'll be over $20k not too long from now.

Bitocin has not experienced a major correction (crash) this year. Everything to date has been pretty tame. Look at the $60-$1200 sunup, lots of up and down along the way. Then you get the *real* correction.

This is because of the global demand. But I think we can apply mathematics to have the accurate price of BTC, the buying and selling are happening in real time and there's no way to predict that, unless some of the whales are talking to each other "Hey let's pump the market". We maybe have some historical data on that and we can count the average increase but we can never who will buy and how much the demand will rise.

In my prediction it will be 20-21k at the end of the year.
56  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: December 09, 2017, 11:35:06 AM
My professor thought us regarding investments. The best way to manage your money is to invest the 20% and use the 80% for personal expenses and save some of it, it's good to have a future vision with your wealth but it is also important to look at your current status, anything can happen anytime so it's a good habit to set aside some funds.

I think this will depend on what is your income monthly, some people don't even have to invest at the end of the month, no matter what they do, so in my opinion as long as you are young you need to invest all your efforts on profession and skills and save some invest some money to improve yourself. There's no substitute for skill and they will pay you for that, never became cheap when it comes to improving yourself and when it comes to opportunity.

Also it is good to save money but for emergency purposes only. They are both better to do in their own way, what is not good is overspending on things that you only want.
57  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Will bitcoin end? on: December 04, 2017, 08:39:35 PM
Bitcoin right now keeps on increasing its value, and many more cryptocurrencies are occurring.
Do you think someday bitcoin will end or will be replace by other cryptocurrencies?

Is it too late to invest?
Is there a chance that bitcoin will be down?

Well even the great sun will end someday, the only question is when. There are always a possibilities if BTC will end or it will be the currency for a few hundred years. Time is changing, even the fiat money has been here thousand of years ago even gold, but it is still here. There maybe a point where a new technology will arise and then BTC will be no more and people will have the adoption on that technology again and the process will repeat until the world's end.
Some reason are global wars or natural phenomenon, economic downfall and other things. And if of course cryptocurrencies don't matter without us if we've come to an extinction then it will end.
58  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Too late to get involved into Bitcoin? on: December 04, 2017, 07:18:25 PM
Hey everyone
I was mining just for fun when in 2013/14 mining with a gpu was still viable. Since that day im wondering if it is too late to get involved in bitcoin even though I stopped thinking about it for a few years since I was about 15 years old with different things on my mind. Just recently I began wondering again: Is it too late to get involved in bitcoin? After the price blew up in 2014 I asked me the same thing and thought the hype is over and I am just too late. Even if bitcoin is a bubble and each bitcoin is overvalued who can safely tell when the bubble is going to pop if it ever will? I just think this is an awesome project with an equally awesome community despite the weird things in the altcoin section that tend to become more and more popular due to "weird" people picking up on the bitcoin hype caused by media and the increased internet awareness. Im talking about projects like "bigboobscoin" which is topped by some emojis in the title. Since I came along this project I want to own one of the 21M bitcoins to ever be created. In addition bitcoin has something magical to it which I cant put in words but the fact that satoshi never got identified gives me this feeling of a revolution of currency with the right intension. He never pulled out his round about 1 million btc. Well who knows maybe Satoshi is dead by now and his btc will never be touched. Bitcoin came out of the mind of a genious and is so much more worth than only "going to the moon".

Im just wondering if bitcoin and its community still got the same spirit or have the weird people and rich investors overtaken to ruin this project by treating it like a pump and dump shitcoin without a soul?
I hope my english is good enough to make you understand my thoughts and feelings.

Have a nice day.



I've heard some comments of a legendary that the forum or this community is not the same as before. And yes without a soul they are creating waves and taking away millions of dollars and some or like you call weird in the ALTS coins sections (some of the ICO) there will run your money. It is the new scams and this is the new world and everyone don't care (not literally everyone) just want to have the $$$ here. The community now is on its survival and only few just sacrificed just to save the old soul.
Ang late for BTC? man you're not, its not even a hundred K dollars yet. The weird people like we you are talking about have already ruined th ecummunity and there are also weird people that came here that is keep destroying it. And Im very sorry about that. Cry Cry Cry Cry
59  Economy / Speculation / Re: Why Bitcoin is falling ? 9000?!? on: December 04, 2017, 08:57:54 AM
My guess is hitting 10 000 was a milestone for a lot of people and it went as high as 11.5k+ earlier today then a whale sold off or something and here is the problem with a bunch of people who own a % selling.. they create a snowball effect and others panic and get scared and start selling. How low will it go? No one knows as for long term hodlers you have nothing to worry about : ). So just hold
Disclaimer: this is not financial advise trade at your own risk

Tha battle between traders, whales and the demand itself is what's causing the flactuation of prices, there's nothing that can predict the market except the flow of buy and sell. My BTC is stock for years and I will hold it till it is a 100k$. Trading BTC on the other hand is so scary because you need not to sleep to monitor the prices, the changes of dollars is terrefying every seconds. Without proper knowledge on trading you are just going to lose. Also I can't afford to lose anymore BTC. I have been trading it  when the it's price is low but now? Man. Losing some BTC in trading is like losing a month of work. And I can't take that anymore.
60  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin has defeated gold on: December 04, 2017, 05:55:53 AM
This means nothing, instead you should probably compare the marketcap. where the gold marketcap is currently $7,422,335,235,457 (yes trillions) and bitcoin is 20$ billion. Gold exists for thousands of years now and It won't simply lose It value because bitcoin came to life. In my opinion, nothing could actually beat gold and silver, no matter how much year passes.

Even up to now BTC is still far from gold. Because gold is a reserve this will take time before BTC will even reach that heights, BTC must be at least 700k$ in order to overtake golds market cap. Let's wait for another 10 years if the cryptocurrency boi (BTC) can dethrone one of the most adopted metal in the world (Gold).

Time will have an answer on this but before that happens as I'm wring this BTC's price is slowly catching up and the really is still going strong.
