What is your "hype percentage"?

[joshy23]

so as far as me using hype=20%. if i can explain it another way. if i find my self 80% into a project. every thing looks good. the owners have good checks. everything is traceable and in line for an investor to come along and say wow that is great i cant believe we are going to make a zilliion dollars says your chart and the pen and coozie look so professional!! and then you calm down a bit and double check everything and make sure you aren't going to make a mistake you can't fix....that was hype.....and i think flavor flav is there . the original hypeman. I'm just here to discuss what i feel is important and i hope to only bring up good discussion and help the cause welove. and if you find yourself not understand, or I am just destroying the English language too much and you want me to clean it up lay it out. i will. but i'm not in a jam. my earnings are positive. I have my wallets backed up. so no reason for me to come in at 200 mph hot.

That's nice. If you can bring your investment to some projects that you feel will going to rise and make more money, you are in the good side.

Make a use of your instinct and keep believing on what you are already doing right for your investment, hype is always there with the project that
you are aiming to support, try not be careless and be stuck when hyped pumped and dumped the project.

generally i think the community feels bitcoin hype is 10%+.
we see it every time.
a newbie shows up and screams blue murder that a price of $9k going down to $8.1k is some massive dump. and most legends laugh and go "pfft, chill out its just a regular dip"
another shows up and excitably declares that a price of $8k going up to $8.8k is some massive 'to da moon' and most legends laugh and go "pfft, chill out its just regular speculation"

many speculate that a weekly 10% volatility is normal (though there are some months of stagnation)
many speculate that a yearly 100% volatility is normal (though there are some months of stagnation)

so to play it safe, reduce risk and have fun trading daily. many traders just trade 1-2% a day knowing its easier to get 1-2% and as it adds up per day it can be 10% a week or 100% every 3-4months. all without having to 'buy and wait and hope'

you keep using keywords such as "math" and "found a method" but you never explain exactly what it is you are doing, that is why you are getting a wide range of replies that are either confused or are dismissing the possibility not because your account age is small.

all i can say, since you are not explaining the "method" is that if it works for you then that is all that matters in trading. and you should stick to it. i also have my own methods of market analysis to earn more in the altcoin market that i stick to because they work for me even though when i shared some of them in the altcoin board people didn't think much of it.

..I think hype gives some factor on a certain altcoin to increase or decrease its value and it is unevitable..just my opinion,,better not to listen or engage on the hype that you think will going to bother you in your investments,,just stick to the fact and believe what you have dream and don't believe humors by other people that you think worthless and might not help you..

This relatively new word hype is a kind of advertisement. It is created artificially to support some token and to push people to buy it. The same refers to the projects and other stuff as well. Do not follow the hype and use your thoughts only.

[Mike Mayor]

It is a bad idea, and a first step many people take when they newish is to listen to others. It isn't a good idea to listen to others. You can hear them but don't take the advice to heart.
Look at what you have been told then look a the market if people speculate the use of a coin keep up to date with it. Use your own initiative and use your own tactics you have thought of. You need to be consistent with your tactics though. I try to stay away from coins with too much hype I rather invest elsewhere where it is quite but still enough market cap to profit because many are greedy and jump to the most profitable coin and forget that there are many other small coins that will bring in a good profit but just in smaller bits.

[Adriano2010]

Sometime maybe you can be lucky if choose a coin which more people say to invest, but sometimea most of "hype" around a coin can make you lose money because they never give a profit.

I'm always hyped. I don't do percents like OP but I'm rather positive most of the time and I don't trade based on that. I know that I'm hyped so I try to trade the opposite way and usually buy or sell too early limiting my profits but at least I have profits
I'm fine with what Bitcoin is doing because I have some fiat and I have some coins. If BTC goes up I'll sell some more if it goes down I'll buy. I'm hyped either way.
