More action.

Liquidated my short position and am on the sidelines again.

Lost    $3.19 or 3.120%    on the liquidation. I now have 99.93 USD in my account. Less than I started with!

You only lost 7 cents over more than 3 months of flipping a coin

I love this thread.

The losses are piling in now!

I liquidated my long,
lost $4.30   or 4.640%.

Current balance:
$92.47656

I'm starting to get a bit bored here. I think I may stop this experiment in mid-May, as I know there'll be a few weeks there I won't be able to trade daily.

the end result of such a strategy is destined to be a balance of zero due to the cost of getting in and out.
more often then not the price will stay within a range which will slowly eat away at any money you have in action.

Pretty early to be short in a 3rd of 3rd wave up mega-rally. But thanks anyway for the 19 BTC.

The flip giveth, the flip taketh away. Anyway, I haven't closed the position yet, so it's premature to say anything about how it will turn out.

You may be in the money before too long.

Nice (/ lucky) trade. You went short before the asks started building up, which was contrary to the charts, indicators, and sentiment.

Though I'm disappointed that it didn't break out, I'm pleased that there wasn't much selling when the winds changed, even though the lack of bids on the order book was nerve-wracking. I take it as further evidence that selling already climaxed, and that the real breakout will be to the upside sooner or later.

the charts never said that there was going to be a breakout to the upside when we were trading in the $4.9s...if anything they said exactly the opposite

This chart is one that indicated an upside breakout.

If you claim that the charts were saying the opposite at the time, you should provide evidence by sharing them publicly after-the-fact.

How does touching resistance indicate a breakout?
