TLDR; Lost all my earnings and a chunk of my 2k due too leverage and intoxicated, slowly getting it back. Also do want to get into normal
You need to be disciplined. Only takes one drunken stupor on leverage to wipe out a position that you've diligently worked at for months/years. I guess most of us have taken on too much risk and got stung at some point though.

140+ Wall spotted @ $2400 @ Bitfinex
EDIT: being swallowed in an hallucinating rhythm. Market looks thirsty.
In the last half hour also a 150+50 BTC walls around 2100€ at Kraken have been eaten. Maybe those are somewhat "small" walls, but they were for real and of significant size for Kraken. We are again inside the triangle. Sideways, and more sideways.

What are your guys thoughts on this latest ICO Tezos? Do you think it has had any effect on the recent prices of bitcoin or ether? I have definitely noticed as the prices of Ethereum has dropped, the number of Ethereum contributed has definitely skyrocketed.
On the other hand, as prices of BTC have remained a little flat, the amount of bitcoin contributed to Tezos has slowed down significantly.

[...] btc1 [...] If they do decide to fork off, no relevant economic nodes will join them. [...]
I wouldn't bet my bitcoins on that. You sound a little too convinced or extremist, which reveals uncertainty. Lets just see, the market will decide for us.

We usually don't talk Ethereum here and sure as hell we talk no ICO.

Since this is the speculation thread, do you guys think we will get to 2600 again before august? Lost and made some money, still need a bit more to break even again.
Bro, I'll heartedly advice you not to play in such a volatile market as crypto is. Unless you're a full skilled trader from stock markets. BTC is king and will win the final battle against fiat. Soon things will be like that: You are completely right, I'm definitely not a skilled trader yet, just been lurking for some time I am just playing with around 2k, and I only buy in trends + when I see clear candle patterns and with the info from this website and telegram. So most of the time I only make "safe" (I know it is almost never safe") trades. But then I discovered leverage trades, made some good money, adrenaline was pumping, got overconfident (also the drinks did not help) went long just as it was turning (Still have no idea where my logic went). I am aspiring to become a full skilled stock trader, BTC just happened to come on my path and with little money you could still easily make a couple of 100 bucks. Also the idea of using it as long term savings account looked great since in Holland I get less then 1% growth in a year... Also since the laws for bitcoins are still in a grey area you can do a lot of fun things with it (currently writing a coin buying and investing website with ideal support for a select amount of people). The API's in general are funt to work with as a programmer so it gives me some incentive to work. As soon as I get that website up and running and have some more funds I'll start opening up a proper broker account and reading into where to start there... This is getting a bit off topic but any suggestions on where I can start even with a low amount off funds. Probably best not to post it here. TLDR; Lost all my earnings and a chunk of my 2k due too leverage and intoxicated, slowly getting it back. Also do want to get into normal better to buy as the price goes down and sell as the price goes up, but don't buy or sell too much in order that you do not run out of either bitcoins (on the way up) or fiat (on the way down). So in that regard, if you only have bitcoins because you used all your fiat to buy at a price that is higher than the current price, then you just have to wait it out for however much time it takes to return to you purchase price level, even if it takes a year or two. In the meantime, if BTC prices continue to go down, which surely is possible, just continue to buy $10 per week (or whatever reasonable amount is in your budget), and sooner or later, you continue to bring down your average cost per BTC and you will be back in the the game and be able to sell some of your bitcoins either below $2600 or above $2600 (but as long as you are selling as the price goes up and buying as the price goes down, you should be good), and whenever BTC returns to that $2600 level (whether this week or a few years from now), you will be fully back... and hopefully learned some lessons along the way...hahahahaha

And "ITT" is short for . . . Sorry, i´m a bit slow !
In this thread its next question will be 'whats a thread?' whats what? ----- Is the former uptrendline turning into resistance now? We will find out soon. For now, I would have to see price returning and being supported above 2600 to believe bullish trend is still intact.

But i just buy and sell. And have 1 (1.03) Bitcoin more today, compaired to yesterday. Does that suffice ? Let me brag a bit, my life is otherwise pretty boring . . .

Actually, I think this plan is pretty good. On the other hand, If you really made 1 btc today this means that you sold 100 btc at the top and then buyed again at the bottom (-1% tops with reduced trading fees). But what if the bitcoin surprised you and raised by 5-10%? Then you will lose bigger profit in fiat than all possible gains in the 1%-daily trading.

Second, you complicate it again ! Third, its a question of amount invested. Fourth, you`ll never make it this way ok,yesterday, i had exactly 25 bitcoins in my bitstamp account. Today i have 26.03 bitcoins, and no idea, how that happened, sometimes i beleave it´s magic ! I leaned myself quite far out of the window, but you live only once, right ?

Good morning Bitcoinland. Still bouncing up and down I see... currently $2347USD (Bitcoinaverage). Isn't waiting fun? ok,yesterday, i had exactly 25 bitcoins in my bitstamp account. Today i have 26.03 bitcoins, and no idea, how that happened, sometimes i beleave it´s magic ! Maybe it's not magic but just blind luck. Maybe someone mis-typed one character while entering the public key to an address to which he was transferring coins. 1.03btc sounds like what someone might get if he fed banknotes into an ATM until it passed one whole coin. Just a thought. If so, lucky you.

Photobombing pro-Bitcoin messages with a QR code included should become a new trend.
All you need is an image to send people money... when has it ever been that easy to move money around?
Awesome away to spread bitcoin awareness too.
