I am new to bitcoin and have only recently started to buy. I am at the moment buying through coinbase. Twice this week I have tried to buy bit coin through coinbase. Whilst the price has been dropping. To my great disappointment it appears that when prices are dropping or going higher then it is practicallly impossible to make a purchase. I have a feeling that this would be the case if you where trying to sell. Does anyone know of a better way that I can purchase bitcoin from here in the uk. As clearly coinbase is not up to the job. I've only been buying bitcoin a week. How can you possibly grow your bitcoin if you can't buy when price is down or sell when the price is up. I am only abl to buy in small amounts at the moment. So it's needs to be something easy until I can finally build up to owning my first bitcoin. Tia
Yes even I have heard of this problem, I am not really sure what's causing this, normally I have been using coinbase.com and I like it but with the fork coming I will have to shift my coins, so would advise you to do the same, then if you want to buy coins you could buy it here from many trusted members. The only issue it could be this they will charge some % over the prev price, always look at their past transactions before you make a decision, you could use localbitoin, it is risky if a transaction goes sour you can do nothing about it. Best is to buy from here from trusted members.
