My best investment strategy can be pretty much summed up in one sentence,” buy low then sell high.” It worked to some extent so I kind of stuck to it. But it’s not always successful. What worked to some extent is not always successful. Sticking out to only just one strategy is not going to cut it. Sometimes you need to use another strategy to stay afloat in the business. Because what worked for the first time will not always work every time. Any investment trends that will pop out now will not always be a trend. The business of investment is always changing and if we want to stay in it then we must change with it.

That's pretty basic and that is a general rule, I would love to see you share a specific method that has really work for you.
Buy low and sell high but the right thing to do to be successful is do it at the right timing.

In my opinion the best investment strategy is obviously investing in alt coins with a quite large capital, because i can see everyday the people with capitals earning some good profits with it by investing on different alt coins and i know i can also do that if i have the capital, so i'm waiting for the day to complete 1 bitcoin and start doing that myself too.
If you are talking about Bitcoin, investing bitcoin in altcoins. The best you can do is invest in altcoins. If the ICO become successful, your money will have a profit then capital back. I am planning to invest my money in some altcoins.

In investing, the higher amount the higher the risk you can get but if the investment will succeed, the higher amount the higher profit you can make. It is the same in gambling, it has the same definition for me. You could risk everything like money, trust, and hope.

The ICO is too risky. It is not regulated like the IPO. So it is better just to buy good coins.

Agree. Investing in altcoins would be the most ideal way to make profit. As they tend to become hyped, you can expect for prices to increase massively, making you earn lots of money if you've managed to buy some when they were cheap.

But, as with any investment there is a risk. Therefore, you would need to proceed with caution, especially in the highly volatile world of cryptocurrencies, to help avoid undesired results.

Usually, altcoins are even more volatile than Bitcoin itself. But, if you manage to that advantage of the situation, then you could become very successful with your investment.

Nevertheless, whatever you do with your investments, never put all your eggs in a single basket. If you invest everything into a single coin or asset, then the risk will be greater as prices may decline at any moment leaving you with huge losses. Just my opinion Smiley

I keep doing this altcoin trading and it seems like it is true that there is a lot of profit there.
Hopefully, before I become a full pledged Hero member I can somehow make a lot of money out of there.
I have some losses too but it didn't come to the point where I lose more than I have profited.
Luckily I somehow get out before it will become zero.

But the only thing I know is that the more you loss earl the more you get after.

The best investment strategy is that you need to have a lot of investments.It means while you are investing and holding bitcoin then you need to have trading investments too. Just buy when the price is low and sell when the price is high.

That is good to know. Because, there is a wealth of opportunities within trading altcoins which would allow you to expand your capital over the long term.

While trading is not for everyone, it can become very rewarding if you manage to get a grasp of it. There will be times where you'll experience losses, but it is good to assure your profits when you still can to become successful in this task.

Nevertheless, whenever it is trading, mining, or even working for altcoins, they certainly are profitable due to their extremely volatile nature. If you want to protect yourself from their volatility, just exchange the coins to another which is pegged to the value ot fiat like Tether or even Nubits. Just my opinion Smiley

I've been telling basically the same for years

In reply to claims that Bitcoin adoption is "slowly but steadily increasing" between merchants. Nevertheless, having said that, I still keep to the opinion that the major cause for the lack of widescale and wildscale adoption is Bitcoin requirement to wait long minutes (sometimes even hours) before transaction confirmation. If Bitcoin would have been instant, that would help a lot in this aspect as well as help stabilize prices. Prices would be lower than now (for pretty simple reasons), but they would be more stable overall

I would gladly trade the high volatility for a lower and more stable price. If I had the choice between bitcoin being trading between $2500 and $3000 and being between $1750 and $1755 dollars, I would take the lower price range. The difference is huge. I would be poorer in dollar terms by quite a lot, but the wild price swings in that scenario makes bitcoin relatively useless for commerce and business. Under the second scenario, the bitcoins are worth a lot less, but trade in a small enough range that they could be useful for both commerce and business by allowing people to have a reliable expectation of what their bitcoin holdings are worth. That's what I crave most from btc

But the price stability is not possible without acceptance of Bitcoin by merchants and businesses

So it is sort of vicious circle, i.e. Bitcoin won't be stable until truly accepted by merchants at a larger scale, but merchants are not going to massively accept it until it becomes stable on its own. That's why instant and low fee transactions are so important since they could, at least, theoretically, help break this self-feeding loop of instability. Though this is not guaranteed either. Businesses will go for Bitcoin only if it turns to be more usable, convenient and handy than fiat, not necessarily better than the US dollar (this is a tough task) but at least better than local currencies that businesses are mostly transacting with

I definitely buy that t would help, but I don't know that it will ever be stable enough the grant large merchant adoption. Moves of a even 1% per mont would be too risky and hit margins. Retail especially is ultra competitive, and margins are so low that currency moves as big as a percent could sap all profitability. And I just never see Bitcoin being that stable.

I can't see how moves of 1% per month could be thought of as risky

Even major fiat monies like the US dollar or Euro move way stronger than that. In fact, oftentimes (well, sometimes), they move even more than that just within 24 hours. As I said elsewhere, in order to be universally accepted by merchants, Bitcoin needs 3 major things (apart from legal recognition, obviously). First, it needs instant, close to real time transactions. Second, it needs these transactions to be dirty cheap, so cheap that no one would be paying attention to them even when buying trivial things. And, third, Bitcoin needs to be more stable than local fiat currencies which merchants use in their trade. Bitcoin doesn't need to be more stable than the American dollar or Swiss frank, it just needs to be more stable than the majority of currencies out there (which are not very stable overall)

Considering retail profit margins are generally around 1%, if your currency moves against you by 1% or more, it either eliminates your profit or turns the profit into a loss. The difference between btc moving 1% and fiat moving 1% is that if the USD moves 1%, everything in the economy moves with it since everything is denominated in dollars and the change is a wash. When btc moves 1%, it's relative to the dollar, so the gain or loss is a relative one on top of whatever fiat is doing. The USD movements are only relevant if you're doing business in an area that would necessitate exchange.

As for the three points you highlighted, I fully agree with all of them. Any one of those is a boon to the system, but all three would make bitcoin a viable alternative to the USD for merchants.

I don't think it's gonna be quick, in reality it's not easy to make money in trading and it could be quick if you are only trading like you are gambling. It requires skills and knowledge that will bring you consistency because as a trader we want to have consistent income to grow our money and it could only happen if we master the art of trading.

I essentially agree with what you said

The point which I want to stress specifically is that it is of no particular advantage if you invest in more than 3-4 different classes of assets (which could be simplified to investing in just 3-4 different assets). If you try to go for more, you will be risking more simply because you won't be able to keep track of all your investments and thus you won't be able to follow the trends which these assets follow (read you will fail to jump the sinking ship in time). In this way, you will be effectively multiplying risks instead of profit opportunities (which is what diversification ultimately comes down to)

I'm not sure who applicable stock investing translates to here, but many financial experts don't consider you properly diversified until you have 8-15 different stocks, across different industries as well. I wouldn't count alts as appropriate diversification. Crypto as a whole would be only one industry. As Bitcoin goes, the others tend to follow.

What is the net worth of these so-called "financial experts"?

I guess people who blindly follow some shitty mathematics (hail to Harry Markowitz) and think they are insured from going bust should better learn more about LTCM and their pathetic fate. The common sense makes it evident that if you have 15 different investment assets (and these should obviously be in entirely different fields if you are looking for genuine "diversification"), you will know nothing of any of them, so you will be basically gambling in the hope that they will follow their previous price patterns in the future (which is a sure way to lose in the long run). As Warren Buffett once said (and I'm totally with him in this matter), if you have a harem of 40 women, you never get to know any of them

I don't know what kind of "common sense" you're advocating, but it seems counterintuitive to me. I own twelve different stocks and am perfectly able to keep up with the pertinent information on all of them. If you can't find time to read the company's quarterly reports and market expectations filed with the SEC, you're not taking your ownership stake in the company seriously enough (imo). Most individual investors don't invest themselves though and outsource the research to financial advisers, which is a robust industry in the US, further negating your concerns on how futile diversification is

You are contradicting your own claims

Which you made previously and which you make now. At first you said that you wouldn't count alts as appropriate diversification since crypto as a whole should be considered as only one industry (which I sort of agree with). But then you proceed to say that you yourself own twelve different stocks (and are perfectly able to track all of them in a timely fashion). Given that, I could just as well say that all stocks as a whole are essentially one industry. If the stock market goes down (think Bitcoin here), most stocks will go down too (like altcoins go down along with Bitcoin). Note that I'm just following your own logic. In this way, you are "not properly diversified" either. In other words, your twelve stocks can be basically thought of as just one stock (and still more so if reading quarterly reports and whatever the SEC files will suffice), which is quite in line with my reasoning. Regarding Buffett and friends, it should be obvious that Buffett is not controlling all the investments that Berkshire does, and in a sense, yes, he (together with Munger) likely doesn't know much about most of them provided Berkshire is in fact as diversified as you claim it to be

For now i do not have any strategy, maybe later I will buy bitcoin with cheap price and save it then i will sell it after high price .. Actually I want to invest in trading but for now my mentality is not strong when I suffer Losses. .
 I think the bitcoin potential is great for future investment ..

Trading is a good way to make profits in quick time so if you learn trading then you can earn good money on regular basis and investing in bitcoin and holding it for a long term is always an good choice to make as price will go higher in coming years.
I don't think it's gonna be quick, in reality it's not easy to make money in trading and it could be quick if you are only trading like you are gambling. It requires skills and knowledge that will bring you consistency because as a trader we want to have consistent income to grow our money and it could only happen if we master the art of trading.
I also think that trade is perhaps the best way to earn, with a minimum of risks. Although if you look at the current trend of instability, crypto currency is established, then today you need to be more attentive and this is a chance to earn good money.

I see your point, but I don't consider what I said to be contradiction. First of all, I was speaking only in regards to stocks, which do not comprise 100% of my investments. I also own bonds, real estate, and crypto as well as short-term notes. The diversification was only in respect to the equity portion of my investments.

So I suppose there are two types of diversification, and I was speaking about the smaller set. There's diversification across investment types (what the asset is: stock, bond, real estate, commodity, crypto, etc.) and there's diversification across industries which is most commonly (but not exclusively) used in relation to equity investing. If you're invested 50% in stocks and 25% in bonds and 25% in real estate, and all your stocks are in one industry, I wouldn't consider that diversified. You could be well-diversified inside crytpo (10% across 10 different coins) but equating 100% of your investments and I wouldn't consider that diversified in the larger sense either, since crypto by and large is dominated by btc, and whatever btc does it for the most part drags every other coin with it. In equity investing, there are defensive stocks that perform better in recessions than growth stocks which are very dependent on good economic conditions. So there are several ways to get at diversification, but in each case it's going to depend on the facts of the case. I would say a general way to put it is you're diversified if a general event doesn't impact all your investments at the same time. (Exceptions for catastrophic market events, which will drop everything, because you can never be diversified to the point where you never experience losses.)

It's good to hold some and use other for investing or trading, I always make it to a point if not half of that coin if ever too many to trade some of it into other alts which have potential and i don't have yet. And invest in some projects that are already sure successful . Or joined in some presale of projects that are potentially successful to get big discounts just do research in that project.
