I'd love to have a go at trading (only small amounts) but I have no clue where to even start! any advice?
Dont bother.. nonsense its tons of fun to play with a few coins on an exchange. make an account at bitstamps or something like that send USD or BTC. start trading. |

"In a nutshell, the network works like a distributed
timestamp server, stamping the first transaction to spend a coin. It
takes advantage of the nature of information being easy to spread but
hard to stifle." -- Satoshi

and win nothing ... last trade : 6 BTC = gain in 4 days = 0,1 BTC.
to risky for me.

First You need a trading account and then... buy low and sell high:) Actually better strategy now is sell high, rebuy low  |

if your going to watch the charts fallow the news and think about where it's going next might aswell have some skin in the game its not about the profits its about having fun drawing lines on charts, devising a strategy and sticking to it. for sure you should have 90% of your bitcoins in cold storage long term hodl, because in the end you want to be invested in bitcoin not just day trading it. but day trading can be fun. |

After a 2 week ban I am back.  Ban for what? I mentioned an altcoin in this thread, although I was just joking. desperate times call for desperate measures, I guess. |

Paper trade before you blow any bitcoin. Scared Bitcoins don't make no Bitcoins. Need to change this HODLER mentality into a HODL on leverage mentality. Most say a healthy economy the average trader is leveraged 7.5% (I believe I saw a video of Warren Buffet saying that.) If you believe in Bitcoin put that shit with a bust @ $150 or higher. |

 hey everyone.. how is bitcoinland going ?? I been busy releasing my latest book. i heard about ripple. That is ridiculous how the government stealing from everyone like that. bankrupt usa has to confiscate and steal to service the loans. everyone is talking about it. i talk to people about how money institutions have to report suspicious activity or be fined. i get reported at least twice a month for removing money from the bank. they have not swat raided me yet. the other day i paid cash for some groceries and i asked the lady if she needed take a picture of me and get my ss#, dl#, my address, my moms address, and stuff since i was being suspicious by paying in cash. ridiculous. they are outlawing cash while using suspicious money laundering to cover their stealing money grabs like they did to ripple. btw... i just learned today that i am black ops. that what homeboy said on my facebook. i really need to step up my game then if i am black ops. I might need buy some more bitcoins soon. |

Good morning Bitcoinland.
Just got back from buying my first few coins after weeks of sideways motion.
Last night's little dip happened minutes after my neighborhood BTC ATM closed for the night and I thought I'd missed out on the first decent buying opportunity since April. When I woke up and saw it had barely rebounded $2 overnight, I jumped at the chance.
Now I really need that coffee. Mmmm...

Out of curiosity, what's the premium on those things? |

If you applied it to Bitcoin last year you might have done well selling at the peak of the rally in May, but if you bought back in November you would have been slaughtered by the crash after Christmas |

I wonder where all the millions of traders go for more than half the year. They could save themselves lots of electricity and hassle by shutting everything down until the winter again. |
