yea ive noticed how my orders have an unnatural weight on bitfinex, I take it as flattery. I use 2.5 leverage but no stops for sure.
yeah....as though much of the other 'orders' were simply faked volume in order to entice
suckerstraders in to play. When I first discovered leveraged trading on Bitfinex, it seemed like I couldn't lose when they still allowed Stop Losses to be routed through Bitstamp, but when they took that routing option away, I started getting my pockets picked left right n centre.
I may go back to that place, but would never ever place a leveraged trade there in a low volume environment such as what we have seen, and ideally I would have the discipline only ever to trade when I was certain of a future course of events......of course what normally happens is that I go there with a certain trade in my mind, I do well on that and start to think that I am too smart, and then I start firing trades off from the hip all over the place and rapidly deplete my profits.
