Trading with Bitcoin

[danystatic]

Thanks for the post, I'll be coming back on updates.

If someone wants to learn to trade Bitcoins, (and with exchange is better)
what is your first choice as a suggestion?

[daybyter]

Do you want to learn manual trading or bot trading?

Forex-Metal accepts Bitcoin for trading.

https://forex-metal.com/

I'll take a look.

Those and similar broker just use BTC to transfer the money and the balance you get is USD/EUR/whatever fiat, ...

Only Bit4X has balance denominated in Bitcoins.

Do you want to learn manual trading or bot trading?

Actually any, or both
The issue is obtaining info for any of this.

Should I use Bitstamp or Mtgox or other?

I use mainly btc-e at the moment. I work on trading software and I am looking for a collaboration.

What type of collaboration are you looking for?

I could use lots of skills. Trading skills would be cool. But also various coding skills. I mentioned a few coding tasks here:

I have been trading BTC these past few days.. using several platforms, but mainly https://1broker.com/ due to simplicity and leverage available. I have to say.. it's great fun to deposit-trade-withdraw as you like.

Obviously the spread for BTC is nowhere near as tight as it is for EURUSD or other markets...

I see...

BTC/USD is closed

Our BTC/USD market will be closed on Monday, November 18th 2013, 4:00 pm (GMT+1).

There are multiple reasons behind this decision:
- This market was hardly profitable for us. The extreme high volatility makes it also extremely risky for market makers to offer a derivative. The only way to fight this is with low limits and high spreads, which both lead to unsatisfied traders.
- The data connection to most Bitcoin/U.S. Dollar exchanges is unstable or comes with huge lags. Many exchanges don't have a real-time data stream or (re)move such APIs without warnings.
- We had to put extraordinary much time and resources into managing this market.
- Although we have ideas to overcome the above problems, a new implementation is complex and needs a lot of work.

Update... https://1broker.com/ no longer allows Bitcoin trading, reduced trading score accordingly.

Over the past few months several major banks have published reports on Bitcoin... I thought it might be useful to share them here.

I wonder if people still trade the highly volatile BTC/USD pair?

[daybyter]

More volatility => more (potential) profit.
