Who made big money?

[oportosanto]

Just a couple of weeks ago bitcoin was blasting over $1000, so I am wondering if anyone made big money by selling their BTC? Now it has came down to $830, even if last week it was close to $900, so I am not seeing getting back to $1000 anytime soon. Any profits or regrets here?

All the people like me who are holding some coins they bought when price was at 250$

First time I ever made a 4times profit ever xD
But problem is that everyone will be full of regrets the moment BTC will crash the 2k$

Everyone knows that the price was due to pump manipulation and It was obvious that Its going to decrease later , those who didn't sell probably thought that It will keep increasing so they kept holding hoping that It will increase to like 1500-2000$ per BTC and that's where they sell. I don't see why would anyone regret though, we will get there eventually anyway.

zero regrets here because even if we assume i didn't sell above $1000 i am still in profit because i have made $650 per bitcoin that i may own these tiny rises and drops doesn't interest a long term holder who has bough when others were pessimistic

That is almost exactly me, I had about a $250 average and I sold some of my coins (about 20%) at over $900.
I did miss the top though, even though my girlfriend said I should sell at $1100!

I don't mind missing the top, I was hoping for a rise to $1500, but it did look bubbly to me, and as soon as the price crashed $200 in 25 minutes, I was ready to realise some profit.

I would probably have sold/swapped more if we had reached gold parity, shame.

Op, If you think that $300 profit from 1 BTC is a big money then fine. But I think BTC has so much potential that selling it now is a waste.
I expect price of BTC to be a lot higher than $1100 in near future so I am not bothered with ~$300 price spikes.

[lumeire]

I did profit a bit, enough to pay the bills for a month. Pretty happy with it. I'm gonna have to buy back pretty soon.

But if you look at it, if you sold your bitcoins at 1100 and bought back at 790, you have more bitcoins now. You will have more profit when bitcoin goes to the moon. People like me who do not have a lot of bitcoins yet can take advantage of those volatility to gain more bitcoins in the process. But those who get in early have no problem in the price surges and are just holding and waiting for the price to go to the moon.

I would see big money as in the thousands and in order to be making that on these spikes you would need a few coins, I am just waiting for it to go up again and next time we might see it closer to the $2k mark.

[randy8777]

i made some decent profits, but all the profits that i cashed out above $1000 have been invested by buying back just below current levels. my benefit is that i have around 20% more coins than before the peak to over $1000 that we have seen. that's my main target > increasing the number of coins that i have.

I sold all my bitcoins at $860 and after one week the price was $1133.
More regrets than profits for me.
Only the big whales can make big money.Do we know any major bitcoin players who are Bitcointalk members?

We have a lot here. Those that are pretty silent are the ones who've got most. Don't worry, it's gonna have a lot more spikes like that in the future, plenty of opportunities to come still.

[Edraket31]

We always regret on the things that might in our hands now but because we ignore it, it just disappeared like a snap of a hand. 
Anyway, congratulations for those who gain much last price increase and start over for those just like me ignored buying bitcoin at its lower price. 
It is never too late guys! We still have ample time.

It's even worse. I have Bitcoin and some altcoins, if I would have been a (good) trader and would have had the guts for it, I could have sold all and bought back now, it would have been some 2 BTC easy profit.
But since I didn't have the time to follow the trend closely to take the best profit, I missed the moment. I didn't sell, I didn't buy.
Not a problem anyway, since I expect them to grow again even higher. When my target is reached, then I will sell, but it's quite a long ride until then.

[boyshx]

No. I wish I had trading skills but I don't so I just hold. Right now seems like a good moment to make small shorts tho

[gentlemand]

Nope. It was blatantly too fast a rise to hold but I couldn't be arsed to crack open my cold storage. And paying the capital gains would've wiped out most of the benefit of buying back lower. I could of course have sold and bought back on BTC-e but they make me feel funny in my tummy.

why would you want to know, and those who have made big profit are never going to announce it here!
surely there have been many who sold and bought and made profit and loss. that is how any market works. some experienced traders are always silently making their money while the rest of us talking here to ourselves

I quickly convert my btc into cash. So i can say i got little from that. Im just a bit frustrated bout the price. I thought we are going to break the all time high that time. But it didn't. Im still positive tho. I'll just wait till it pump again. I guess this may take a long  time till we are back again to $1000.

[zby]

I would like to know who was it that shorted this from over 1100. It was looking so bad for shorters - you'd have to have balls of steel to hold it through the pain.

[mindrust]

I have some pretty cheap coins lying around and there were many chances for me to dump my position from 1000$+ and yet i didn't. Because i thought i will rise even further(1500+). When i realized that it won't happen, it was already too late. I am not completely sad though. What if it kept rising after i sold my coins? Getting trapped in a bulltrap is far more painful than holding your position.
