Topic: Are you all in when trading? - page 19. (Read 1944 times)
I believe that you can invest all the money in the cryptocurrency. I am confident in this market for the coming year. And this is enough to earn. Anything could happen. But the ratio of risks to possible earnings now shows good opportunities. I ventured and invested all my savings in the cryptocurrency, and I succeeded. I agree that you can not trade for the whole deposit, usually I enter the position to 15% of the deposit, but in October I entered 40% on the etherium, because I was confident in its growth and again I got it.
I've experienced your current situation. buy any amount of altcoin that is down in the maximal amount or all in.
but its out of expectation . is only loss of coins is not a profit. what I do when it happens is to keep reading the news of what actually affects the altcoin continues to fall. and for altcoin maybe I will give my maximal loss limit.
so I did not run out of capital to start with a new kind of coin to cover up my loss. it is a bit stressful but when the over profit has been made we can also surely too happy.

"ALL IN" is not a really clever strategy. Someone told me "to invest what you can afford to lose" and I kept that in mind every time I trade on crypto coins and tokens.
That's a good decision not all in when trading a coins. Be mindful always on your activity and be wiseful in investing in gaining profit. That's right invest only on what we can afford to lose that at the end were in the right path to be success in trading. This would produce the most gains , but if you predict wrong you could be stuck waiting for the price to either come back up or down to get back in. I did this the other day. I sold and bought back in at what I had predicted was going to be the next upswing. However some last second sellers swooped in and dropped the price below my limit. Then it just continued to fall from there. Now I sit and wait for the price to come back up to my purchase price so I can get back at it. I hate waiting. I get antsy. I should have left some money in reserve so I could have at least bought in at the bottom. I got greedy. Now I wait. 
I think you need to equip yourself to be able to trade well, in addition to knowing the knowledge, analytical ability, you also need a little experience and must always find reliable sources of information. From then on, I made my own judgmentsThis would produce the most gains , but if you predict wrong you could be stuck waiting for the price to either come back up or down to get back in.

I never go all in when trading. Some of my biggest trades are 5% of my portfolio position size. Going all in is emotionally straining.
Well I guess not necessarily. The amounts you have supplied yourself might be misleading to what he actually meant. But I agree with his strategy to never go all in because you can never be too certain about what is going to happen.
I have a friend who tried trading and he won around 10 Bitcoins just because of a single try. Eventually, though, he got greedy. He did not cash out even when Bitcoin's price is already amounting to $19,750. Look where his greed took him -- of course, he is down to 3 Bitcoins because he lost in trading. What is more is that the price of Bitcoin has declined around the last week of 2017 up until present. Currently he is holding, just like someone in this thread. The lesson to learn here is to never put all your eggs in one basket.

it is a very idiot way to use all the money you have to invest in cryptos, crypto market is very fluctuative all the time, so even a good trader must be affraid of choosing to trade all their money or not, because in cases the price of a crypto can makes trader become million in a night or loosing all if the price to the bottom, so that is why many traders give us advice to split into the money many parts to invest in many cryptos.
I do not think it is an idiotic thing just to place all of your money in one coin because many people are full time take part in trading so he/she can still maintain their crypto as well, so they can trade it easy way. And not all coin going to give you good profit too so if you just focus on one coin each time, you will tend to get profit gradually and of course bigger than if you diversify it
I will not go for the all in.Not all trading have a positive result and I will not take the risk.I think half will be fine.

sometimes, only I call that gambling lol. I usually invest no more than 20% of my holdings, I think I can afford to lose 20%

Never all in. I personnaly only invest 1 to 5% of my total capital on a trade. Risk management is essential with volatile assets.
I can totally relate to you mate when I first started trading. I am going all in because the more I put funds into it, the more profit I will have if it goes my way. I am having enormous profit but then as expected, my lesson came. Price is continuously going down and I could not do anything because I don't have any funds left and as what you said, I said to myself that I should have left some to buy at the dip but because I went all in, I have nothing left. Even if the price went up thereafter, it is below my buy price so I am still at a loss and if I would have funds left then I would have buy more at the dip and be in profit already. Nowadays, I only buy in portions and do not think of the profit much because profit is still profit no matter how big or small it is.
Surprised that actually some people would recommend going all in, that's just a recipe for eventual disaster.
The only all-in strategy that applies is when you are a holder, but that doesn't mean pouring all your life savings into Bitcoin. Like for me, after selling what I earn for expenses, I accumulate as much as I can, with no intention to sell any for years at minimum. So my monthly cycle for the past year hasn't changed. Not at 10k, not at 20k... In that sense yes, all in but for holding.
Op shouldn't feel bad. You sold high and got yourself more coins. Now play the holding game and relax. More time for yourself, less worry, and you already have more coins that you had.

I also experience like you, I buy at high prices and now the price is down in the added news that always tell bad bitcoin badness, so the price does not rise anymore, I hope this situation soon recovered. 
Goin all in trading is maybe not the best idea. When your working all day an you trade with orders, and you cant watch the charts all day, this could go very bad. Thats why i wouldnt recommend anyone to trade all in. If your a daytrader, and watch the whole day the chart, you can do these, with less risk. And this will give you the most gains. But many trader recommend that you should split your portfolio in many altcoins.
I don't go all in when i am trading because i know that it is a very risky move to do because when you go all in then the price of the coin does not goes on what you are thinking then it will be a huge loss for you and the best thing to do is to just put in trading the money that you can afford to lose so you will not have some problems when the market goes wrong.
I don't have any other income except from crypto but as for day trading I only trade the coins I usually want to accumulate more of which at the moment is COSS and I also like the spread of SUBSTRATUM on COSS so I get the odd buy and sell there filled in around once or twice a week with a 255 margin between the buys and sells so have accumulated over 1.4k of Substratum. I don't have as much time to day trade but I am all in crypto as I don't earn any fiat. I only take out fiat for living expenses at the moment.
I never sell all that i have, i only sell 80% of what i have. The remaining 20% is for savings and i can add value when have the funds and reinvested. That's the plan i do in crypto and in real life. Moreover we never know when the price will rise or fall so it would be nice to anticipate it first or we can be disappointed in the future.
