Trading cryptocurrency is awesome stuff but very very scary. Believe me this thing can ruin you if you don't have a strong heart. Trading Altcoin is definitely not recommended for people with history of heart attack especially  if you're day trading. I have two price notification apps, man those things nearly killed me. I ended up disabling notifications for all the coins am holding except Bitcoin

Ripple was my most challenging Trade & most rewarding. Ethereum was the easiest. My first Trade ever was April this year. I started with Ethereum at $45 sold at about $100 with just $25.

I already withdrew some Bitcoin from my poloniex account twice otherwise I would be worth $232 now.
My aim now is to hit $500 before the end of this year, so help me God.

Hope this inspires you to start trading no matter how small

It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

it is great, isn't it. specially these days.
but it takes a lot out of you. i am mostly day trading altcoins, or generally joining the pumps and jumping out of the train before it reaches the destination. but that also takes a lot of time and has lots of stress. i usually give it up but the profit and my greed brings me back Cool

the alerts are good though. may i know what are you using?

Unfortunately it looks like the blockchain tech surge is finally reaching its peak.  To be honest it was just empty speculation - you could have literally picked any coin in existence and held it for a couple weeks and you would have more than doubled your money.  Even the most obscure shitcoins in existence have got pumped, all at the same times.

Christ, the Internet is weird.

Anyway, good luck OP.  Don't get caught up with all the high gains - they can't last forever.  And make sure that a lot of your profit is realised, in case something bad happens. 

It's a risky game you're playing.  Just make sure it's based on skill rather than luck.

It is a good move to start trading. You have tremendous potential. My advice do not be afraid to use more money in trading. You will get a satisfactory result if you can do it right. Use all the money you have, but leave some to be on guard if there is something undesirable.

Guys is there any highly successful trader around doing like a trading spreadsheet, like betting groups used to do? He makes a table in which he says what he buys every day and basically what's the risk level of each investment, so people can make up their mind whether they want to follow his moves or not.

Nothing will go wrong my friends. Please experiment with trading it definitely worthwhile . It very hurting to see people search desperately to earn online while stuff like Steemit, Bitcointalk & Altcoin Trading exist. Unfortunately Most of the online job seekers end up investing in scam.
 Try researching deep into trading before investing your hard earned money you will be fine.

Trading is all about patience the only problem most of us face is we get nervous and in order to prevent further loss we sell low. The only thing we should remember in trading is stick to a target. For example if you bought at 100$ and your goal is to sell at 150$ wait for it i can assure you it will hit , i mean in most of the big currencies like dash , ltc with high volume trading. Shitcoins can take a while or maybe never recover but trading is all about risking.

Your submission is actually correct as even me I am just trying to lay my hands on some trading activities in which I can relate with what you're saying there. Men it really needs some heavy hearts to make some decision whether it's to buy or to sell but what I have discovered is to listen to your guts when its telling you to buy go ahead and at the same time telling you to sell. But if it tells you to slow down, do some findings before going ahead, I tell you that's the best way to go.

What a story you have there and seems like a road to success right now. I'll be watching this thread.

I similarly just recently started trading, around just this January. I didn't have the same luck as you though, as I was really just a newbie with no clue on what I am doing. So in the end I just ended up losing 25% of my original investment. Though right now I invested in ETH and did quite good on it which could probably get back my losses.

I wish you luck my friend, I will similarly aim to x20 my original funds too.

it is because trading is not for everyone. it is not at all an easy thing to do. if they could make money for a year then they are a successful trader not if they could make money in a couple of trades. that is why people stay away from trading because they are the second thing, they lose money in long term.
so they go for a more guaranteed method, a job.
and the altcoin market is never kind to the newbies.

There is a FOMO brewing...

Nice inspirational story. I do not keep track of how much I made from trading. But I am sure it cost me a lot to learn. Even now, I still make noob mistakes like getting in on hype and ending up a bag holder. But I am quite sure I am on profit because of some altcoins I bought that made me some x20 profit. If I may just add, you also need patience in trading. Sometimes the coins may not move in a while but you have to be patient to wait for the devs to make some progress and the boom, the coin price explodes and your profit.

That was a nice share Smiley  I hope you hit your target of $500.  It is actually challenging to trade with small amounts and be able to multiply it to 4 folds and now your are targeting to make it 20 folds.  Well, if you managed to buy XRP when it was around less than 200 satoshi, you could have been rejoicing with 100 times return since XRP reached more than 20k satoshi .

It is great that you learned ablut the trading ethereum is my first too whwni start fromteading but when i learned about how to trade prefectly even in short term of trading it will make you more happy when you do when you are about to make a profit about half of bitcoin even in short term of payment you can make it. By looking for a potential coin that will increase price that fast.

This is so inspirational. I have been trading for 5 years and I know exactly how challenging it is to trade with such a small account. You get eaten by fees and the spread in trading so multiplying your money from 25 into 200 is extremely impressive. I hope you hit your target of 500! it seems like you know what you're doing. good job

it is good to have targets in life when it comes to money. i have been doing it for a couple of years now. although in trading i can't really say i am setting any kind of targets because of the very unpredictable nature of it and also the fact that (alt least for me) trading takes a lot of time and spending that much time on trading is not possible for me these days although i am mostly missing out on many good pumps.

wow. I am very impressed that you were able to turn 25 into 200. that is a pretty incredible rate of return. What is your strategy if you dont mind me asking?

for bigger markets like bitcoin you need to learn how trading works. the technical analysis is also helpful.
for altcoin trading the best thing to do is to watch the market for pumps and get in before the hype and sell on top.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

This feelings are normal if you dont have enough experience in crypto trading field. With good plan you dont even need to stare charts and check prices on every 15 minutes. But only thing matters you earned something from this activity. I advice you next time dont even think about your last position. Just set up your platform,buy/sell whichever market you want and forget about it. Stop loss or take profit will do it's job.Good luck Smiley

We must be very careful to trade in the world of cryptocurrency. Trading in a 3x world of cryptocurrency is more risky than forex. We should know more about how cryptocurrency works and less about bitcoin block, etc.bitcoin is created like money but precious like gold

I am in around $400 loss with Ripple but I am holding them strongly and today XRP got green candles so I am quite sure I will be in some +ve within next few days. Holding your alts and buying more during correction is best and easiest trading strategy anyone can follow. Congratulation on your trading profit...  Wink
