I'm in the same boat. I have an old wallet from 2014 from when I worked on some of the original XWC retro artwork. I thought I had sold them but turns out I have quite a few. Like 500k

Looking back a few pages seems like there was a swap? Any way to get going again? I'm willing to pay a commission if somebody can help me out.

Best decision:
-bought during panics/depressions when everyone else was selling

Worst decisions:
-bought overpriced mining hardware in 2013
-bought altcoins
-didn't sell during the price booms

The one I was looking at earlier seemed as if someone was moving the same 24,000 coins around to different wallets.

It's ridiculous. I'm fully ready for this to come crashing down in dramatic fashion but I remember 2013's rally and how the price just relentlessly marched upwards.

I bought a bunch of 12/25 quarterly contracts in the $300s on 20x. Going to be a good Christmas if this rally recaptures some of the bear market losses. I normally don't go over 10x but I thought what the hell, the risk/reward is worth it.

Depends on the timescale and fractal size. 6h bubbles come down within days, 1d bubbles come down in weeks, and 1w bubbles come down in months.

Why not use a trailing stop in this case? Then if price goes crazy you can still profit, but if it starts to fall profits are protected.

Bitstamp is out of coins, lol. Is this gentlemen?

Their basic service is free. Fancier stuff like custom time intervals, side-by-side charts, intraday P&F, Kagi and Renko charts require a monthly fee.

And you can do cool things like this:

Reverse Bitcoin accumulation range!

I've tried to be a bear during this rally (went long from $230 to $340 in futures, then reversed) but there simply is not any selling to push the price down and I took a small loss, twice. And there are still 20,000 shorts on Finex, which, if the market continues its relentless march up, will cause a large crash upwards when they all rush to close out at once.

These are confusing times for traders because they've been trained to go short near 300 all year. Now things seem to be different, at least on the surface...

The market was ready to move up, ponzi or not. People always find news to associate with rallies and crashes, but the truth is supply and demand dictate market movements and news is usually secondary.

Hi guys, what a rally! As I was saying all year, this is what nine months of accumulation does to the price. When the informed interests are done collecting and take the brakes off the market (that is, they stop selling heavily into bulges) this dynamic rally is to be expected.

The XT fears allowed them to collect even more at bargain prices from panicky selling, causing a terminal shakeout and supply shortage, dramatically forcing the price up and out of the trading range once a bit of demand came back into the market.

In January the curtain was raised for Act I. Now they begin buying up the price for Act II.

Dorsey wrote a book about P&F charts too. Great read if you haven't already

Funny how every other bust cycle has recovered or even rallied significantly off of its lows, but today's bust cycle is somehow different.

Market trends act like humans bandwagoning onto the next big thing--during its early phases people slowly begin to jump aboard. During the middle phases greater participation from the trading public is seen, and during the late phases mania ensues while the last of the holdouts and amateur speculators finally give in to cupidity and buy (or sell) aggressively. This overzealousness marks the end of the trend. It's at this point that the people who got in near the beginning sell to (or buy from) the public, who are more than happy to satisfy that need.

The fuel for these trends eventually dries up as multiple stabs to support or resistance points see less and less volume and participation. The market still seems bearish or bullish, but the seeds have already been sown for the next move through exhaustion of supply (or demand in an uptrend) and a large transfer of ownership from many to few, or from few to many. 

Which is why you buy with them, before everyone realizes that Bitcoin isn't dead after all

Better now than getting sucked into a big rally... but such is human nature.

This is the place to act: After the market been dramatically exhausted of its buying or selling power, after everyone has hysterically rushed to the exits all at once, after large amounts of supply have been offloaded to the public or absorbed cheaply by large interests, after the market is left stripped dry and teetering on the precipice, vulnerable to the slightest action in the opposite direction.

These places offer the greatest opportunity.

Futures settlement party starts the right shoulder of an inverse head & shoulders reversal pattern. High volume buying on Stamp this week. Asks thinning out while bid sides firming up.

Get 'em if you want 'em; not much selling left to push the price down.

I already did. Just be careful as it's a bit of a different game over there. Of course they have a spot exchange if you don't want to do futures.

Excellent.

Patience, gentle troll, patience. The market ebbs and flows against all odds--we may have a longer accumulation than we had bargained for.

Also, the walls are not mine. I wish!
