Follow me trading :)

Hi guys,
since i'm making quite nice profit from trading on Poloniex i have decided to make a blog/thread about it and post daily updates about my positions, success and loss.

I have around 15k$ (http://prntscr.com/byd0x7) in my account and i do daily margin trading. Some days i make 50$, some 400$, depending on how wild market is on that day.
I invest pretty conservativly and only in the currencies i believe will have a great future or at least bigger price then there currently is, this way if i get stuck by buying at a bad price i can wait and eventually get a profit since lending fees are so low. Also i don't use my maximum margin levels to stay out of danger, there is no need for this since i'm happy with 100$ daily. While trading on margin i hold altcoins that i believe will have a great future, currently those are ETH and Lisk, but also have some Sia which im planning to sell since their team seems too slow to me and their project turned out to be something completly different that i have expected.

Yesterday was a great day for me when ETC did chaos on the market i made around 0.7 btc. I made around 0.6 from trading ETH alone, but it's too much action to screenshot it i would need to use few screenshots. Will do it if you guys reqest.

Today is a slow day, nothing much happened, so there were low earnings

I'm "stuck" since yesterday on Ripple, i don't mind it, it wasn't this low for a long time and i'll wait for it.

Ripple is healthy coin, got a lot going on and will surely get over my base price + some profit in a next few days.

Basicly from the current coins in margin trading on Poloniex i trade with ETH, MAID, Ripple and DASH, those are the ones i believe will have a future, not so sure about other ones.

What i have learned so far on trading:
Patience - you don't have to buy at that very moment and you don't need to buy with whole budget

Read news before entering the position on ever particular currency

Don't be greedy, take a smaller profit and get out of the position when the green candles look great, there will always be more opportunities.

Don't regreat missed opportunities and trades where you could have done better by staying longer in it because you don't even notice all the situations where you did good by shorting the position on time, you take it for granted.

Buy on dips, if there is nothing happening on the marked better wait and do nothing then buy expensive just to get entertained.

That's it for the first post i hope you guys will follow me to the moon or into bankruptcy

I have never understood how the margin trading works, and as many people have never suggested it to me I was always afraid to try it as I couldn't understand how exactly that works. From the first screenshot that you provide i see a total trade amount of 2.4BTC which is good for a short time to trade, so it was all manually or automatically?

Margin trading is beautiful because you can hold the coins that you believe in and still get to use other coins which are available on margin trading. For example i transfer 600 ether into margin and for it i get 600*13 (current price) * 2.5 (leverage) = 19500 $ worth of any coin listed in margin trading. So i can buy MAID with this value and still own my ether which im sure will rise in the future.
It's manually when it comes to trading, just like normal trading, but it's all automaticly when it comes to lending the money from others and taking profits/losses.
I would say margin trading is a great tool if you use it carefully. If you like to gamble and walk on the edge then this might be a very dangerous tool to play with.

Thank you for sharing this important notes , I always follow this notes when I trade altcoins , but the difference between you and me is that I trade with small amounts because I don't have a lot of money , but I am making good profit , and by the time my balance will increase for sure .

By this you own 600 ether and xx MAID which in total have the x2 value that you invested at the beginning and then you can decided which one to sell? Or I'm missing something here. Which are the risks while doing margin trading? I'm new on this sorry maybe for these noob questions but it's confusing and can't see the difference between normal trading and margin trading.

Your advice is way too good; Teaching the noobs so much makes it drastically harder for the winners to profit. 
Thanks, for the public service message, though.

Great to hear you're doing good!
Yeah basicly i think if you follow this notes with no exceptions you would be winning.

No, you transfer ether or any other currency that is available on margine trading from exchange account into margin account. This is not investment is just a transfer and you can to transfers without any fees.
For this 600 ether in my example that you transfered into margin account you can use curretly 19500$ worth of any other currency listed on margin trading. But once you enter some other currency you cannot use ether untill you close the position, at least not the amount of ether required to cover the cost of the position you entered.

I guess i have too much free time, but you never know what good can come out of the topic like this one.
I had some good expiriences before with similar topics in other niches since i'm doing full time online job for 15 years already.

Exactly, I was doing the same way also just like you (but smaller BTC amount). But, I was just focusing on one to two coins because im still in a studying process. But luckily I turn my 0.003 BTC into 0.078 BTC in one wk I think. But now, I do the Biggest mistake when I buy at BM, and became scam. now im starting again .

[Lecam]

I do trading too but in sad life i lost my money in trading because the coin i buy is dead now so you can give a tip to best way i can get profit into trading.

Dude those are huge profits for 1 week, i don't think you were conservative with investments as i'm.
You muliplied your initial investments 26 times in just one week, that's insane, i guess you took a lot of risks.

As i stated in the first post i only trade with coins that im not afraid to get stuck with because im pretty sure they will get above my position.

Also i never invest my house in 1 position, 10% of you budget is ok, little bit risky, 5% is better.

where your analys price and wher your posting you write is now buy or sell , short or long
and iam follow you about trading is free or programe paid
if paid, how much fee is follow you trade ?

[~Bitcoin~]

Do you have any twitter handler where you keep posting your open positions and closed positions in margin trading. I am also struggling hard to get profit out of altcoin trading. I think if you have time you should operate one twitter account and post updates when you open/close orders in your account with or without screenshot will be enough for us to follow you and make profit.

I know nobody could guarantee profit in trading however following expert could be good decision.

[helloeverybody]

I like your trading coins since they are similar to what i would use and safe playing. Im going to follow you for a few eeks and see how you do. My trading hasnt been very good the last while so i wonder if following you will make me some small profits. I dont have the same amounts your willing to risk on trades though so will have to use smaller amounts which wil obviously net me a smaller profit but any profits are nice for me

Id like to ask though. With ripple you have around 8 btc invested, What will you do if ripple drops further? will you take the loss or will you hold and hope for a rise? Id also be scared having 12 btc in eth atm =p

[ethereumhunter]

margin trading surely can give big profit but it can give big loss. i still don't understand how to get big profit, i am trying to trading in margin trading but i only get 17k as a profit. maybe i am wrong in make analysis when its going down or when its going up. i always bought with only half of my budget on margin trading. maybe i need more practice.

[Omegasun]

i think sharing your trading strategy has a little bit side effect for you OP. you will earn in trading because other
traders are losing. and if you keep continuing this things. all members will copy your style and that`s worst.
the essence of trading is to buy low and sell high the only one that will benefits on it is the owner of trading site, the devs of coins
and the first staker of coins.. i hope you didnt do this just to promote your coin that you buy and wait others to buy it  for price increase.
it is much better to teach your strategy rather than sharing your daily stats of your coin you stake OP.


btw your strategy is good and the money you risk in trading is a little bit high. i think you didnt experience a heavy dump in trading thats why you risk that amount.
hahahah.

Bookmarked this thread, and also your blog. I would like to follow your steps hope you update daily your  currency picks. Also I may suggest, you may have also a twitter update, I  love trading but most of my btc in Polo is in lending,im afraid in margin trading as I have no idea thank you...

ohh lets wait and see if i'll do profits at all

not yet, but if i see more people want it i'll make it, till then i'll post here.

Id like to ask though. With ripple you have around 8 btc invested, What will you do if ripple drops further? will you take the loss or will you hold and hope for a rise? Id also be scared having 12 btc in eth atm =p

with Ripple im 10 BTC in, and i would be surprised if it drops bellow 880 since there is a lot of things going on for Ripple, many banks are testing it, and there will be some news about it in the near future im sure, which will pump it into profits for me.
Also i see them releasing new videos, new partnerships, they are working on it, it's far from being dead. Anyway if it drops further bellow i'll keep it, lending fees are minimum and i can wait.
Im only thinking of shorting 3 BTC worth of Ripple at 910 which i've bought on 895 and 900 only to get little bit more room for other trades till im waiting Ripple to do it's thing.

margin trading surely can give big profit but it can give big loss. i still don't understand how to get big profit, i am trying to trading in margin trading but i only get 17k as a profit. maybe i am wrong in make analysis when its going down or when its going up. i always bought with only half of my budget on margin trading. maybe i need more practice.

half of your margin value is a lot, i start buying with like 1-2 BTC out of 35+ which i can use. Im looking for small profits, 0.2 BTC daily is good enough for me.

I think there are too many people who want read this thread, and even if they do it's not something that a lot of people don't know, it's a common trading advices, but i'll try to turn those advices into practice and we'll see if i'll succeed or not, i think it will be interesting for the people to follow it, like reality show

Thnx for the advice about risking too much, i also think you're right about it, im too deep into Ripple and i will try to be more carefull in the future trades.

thnx on following me

***************

Today i see ETH started dropping and since i don't see any serious reason for it other then further ETC releases from Kraken Bitfinex etc. i started buying again at 193 http://prntscr.com/byj0w8 and i'll buy more again at 189 if it continues dropping...

Ethereal is coming out tomorrow i hope http://ethereal.cloud/ and many other projects on ETH such as Augur, Gnosis, Golem, Swarm i the near future...Other than that devcon 2 is happening soon and ETH is the main start of this event i expect sky rocketing price for ETH.
