Topic: Are you all in when trading? - page 25. (Read 1944 times)
It is very risky to trade all your money because you don't know when it will go up or maybe it may fall again. You should just trade the amount you can afford to lose for you not to be very dissapointed and lose all your money. If there'something left to you, you will still have the chance to get back your money and earned profit. Be patient and be wise.
this is not a good decision when you choose to use all of your money into trading, there will be only 2 scenarios can happen for you, one is you can have huge profit, the other is you lost all of money you can get, and will have nothing left to trade. so that is the risky plan that needs to be considered carefully.
It really depends on the coin. If the coin is good at performing in the market and it suddenly goes a hard dump then i will go all in because it means that i have the opportunity to buy some of that coin and have a great profit in the next few days or even hours because it have a great foundation like the community and the volume.
That is the reason why all in is not really ideal in trading. If anyone think that the coin that you are going to buy is a very potential coin still leave 25 percent for other coins because the price cap changes every now and then. Atleast now you have learned your lessons.
this is time to all in but I think I will wait 1 month to have cheapest price.
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. 
Mate you need to have patience in trading. And don't be too emotional as well because it might cause you to lose instead of gaining. I agree that when you go all in it will produce you a massive gains. I already did that so many times in the past. But now, If I think I have to sell, i only dump a few. Just what you seen today, I also experienced that as well. So sometimes it's never a good thing to dump everything. Sorry to tell but yes, being greedy doesn't do any good at the end. Just wait and be patience and you will have your chance to get back into the picture again. Goodluck.
I agree. Patience is key with trading. Trading is a sort of a part-passive part-active way of going about the cryptocurrency market. Therefore, you need to have calculated movements and actions in order to get good profit, or else you will lose your investments and capital in a glance. The cryptocurrency market is one that is always moving, sometimes to the extremes due to ts volatility feature, therefore, you have to really be detailed with everything, and part of that is having a safeguard of not investing everything in one go because there is more success when you diversify your trades, especially in the cryptomarket having a lot of different market players to consider.
it is a very bad decision in trading, never all in, maybe if sell is okay, but when do buy would be better if buy gradually.
if you use the trading app on smartphone, it would be nice if using alarm, it's good if want to do stoploss or want to buy gradually
You should buy all when the price is low instead of buying gradually. Cause the price is so volatile and maybe after minutes the price will increase. So buy while you still afford the price then hold and the sell when the valued exceeding the current price. if you use the trading app on smartphone, it would be nice if using alarm, it's good if want to do stoploss or want to buy gradually
No, i often use the technique with buy back. We do not know whether a coin will go up or even go down when first buying. If the possibility goes down, then there I will buy back.
So, basically I do not buy with all the capital I have. That way, I get a big profit.
This is a good idea to buy back when the prices falls down. In this market that so unstable we should have always the second plan on what to do during this moment of red marked in the market. So buy back and take risks to hold because eventually price would be up anytime. So, basically I do not buy with all the capital I have. That way, I get a big profit.

Thats a lesson to take in and be that a warning to you. Not to invest all in. Although even you are stuck waiting just consider an affordable price that you think is enough for a loss then sell it or else youll be waiting for the rest of your live.
I always have about 15% of dollars in cash and bitcoin, so that you can buy on the falls. In general, I trade for the medium term and for me to keep the stock is a necessity for the most part for the ICO.
The way prices are falling now. I think I’ll just pull it off the exchange and put it back in my wallet for safe keeping. I am going to take advantage of buying a little more while the price is down though.
Why are you suspicious of the falling rates that you want to withdraw immediately? A pump is coming sometime but I dont see the reason. Anyway it is safer to keep the money in wallet and not store it in exchange.
However when the prices do pump then what are you going to do? Everyone will be rushing to buy and then you might get lagged behind in this rat-race and that time network may get clogged too.
Nope, trading all you've got may only lead to a huge loss. You have to be patient when trading, being impatient will get you no where. For me, its better if you will trade not more than 75% of your holdings, just to make sure you don't loose so much if the price went down drastically.
I am currently trading very little, because the market is in a deep depression, trading is extremely dangerous for my assets. I also think that to make it easy and to have time to do other things than business, I choose to hold coin instead of continuing to trade, which makes me feel more interesting because it is not always day must be next to the computer.

Yes this is what happens with each and every trader they just lose patience, they invest everything in a single trade, they don't plan their trades, they get emotional often on all of their trades and all these things end up with a big capital loss with every trader who don't find up solution for their problems.
So i will request you to plan your trades and trade your plan and don't be emotional after the trade has been placed from your side, once the trade has been placed either you get your calculated and expected profit or you exit at preplanned stop loss.

Yes agree that the trader sometime all in one that can make huge loss of our asset if the price down.
So i will suggest you never trade all in one because its very high risk.

I divide my assets into multiple portfolios. I spend about 40% of my business capital on a daily basis because I know that to make a profit is a lot of investment. I also spend 40% of my capital to participate in potential ICO projects. I dedicate the remaining funds to invest in coin starking to receive automatic income from it. Do not put all eggs in the same basket, that's my investment.
All in method is far too risky and makes you limit yourself unnecessarily. In my noob period I went all in, and while in some cases it had success, I more often than not was finding myself in a very troublesome position. That's why I prefer to trade with 10% batches in active periods (i.e. high volatility days), and 25% batches when I do slow trading, which is also known as the buy low sell high method. If the price goes up, I have coins already to benefit from that increase. If the price goes down, I have enough fiat left to buy even more coins on the way down, which directly lowers my overall buying price. It's basically a win win situation. It's a matter of logical thinking....
So I would first say never go all in once coin especially in trades. Also, never sell at loss. Keep what you have until at least break even if it's a bad trade. Trades are hard so I would just have patience because the market won't always be in your favor.

That's why I do not buy one coin with all my money, even if the profit I gain will be big but the risk as you experience. If you sell you will lose, you can add capital trading and predict coin again because that's the way if you do not want to sell your coin now.
