Topic: Did you make money from the falling bitcoin price yesterday - page 2. (Read 2508 times)
It's been rough just to stay afloat with the drop in price! Does anyone feel or have knowledge of it going back up at all? It dose seem that the prices go up during the spring and summer.
Haven't seen that kind of drop in awhile but was able to nab a few coins when the bottom fell out to $160
I sure did. That was exciting. 
No, it is not. That sounds like a rather poorly conceived philosophy in any case, as a currency needs speculators to provide liquidity.
hey, but is it not the bitcoiners philosophy to use Bitcoin as currency only without any speculation?
No, it is not. That sounds like a rather poorly conceived philosophy in any case, as a currency needs speculators to provide liquidity.tell that to the hordes who sustain something else
you can find tons of post with "Bitcoin is not for speculation"
Anyone is free to do with Bitcoin what one pleases. Some try to use it as a currency, some hold it as an investment. I don't agree with the latter, but there's nothing I can do about it.
Yesterday was a huge day for traders, with many making a lot of money by going short on the bitcoin price and the leveraging to maximise their profits.
We saw a spike in trade volume on the Coinarch website.

Nope was playing the simulation but entered a bit too high
Now just waiting for 8 hours to clear and rebalance it again if the price doesn't go up too much from here.

Many may have made money shorting Bitcoin, but many made money (myself included) buying at the low prices and banking on a rise.
could be a dead cat bounce tho. be careful btc hasn't stopped going down since the 1st quarter of 2014. there were blips and signs of reversals, but still continued going down after.

It's my philosophy at least. I didn't “win” money. All bitcoins I've bought are either in my wallet, or I already spent them on stuff online. I never change them back to fiat.

No, I prefer to make much more when the Bitcoin price goes up.
I did. I don't leverage though. Only 'bet' as much as I care to lose

it's so funny when I see so much hypocrisy.

What exchanges allow shorting?
Can someone please explain to me how this works? I want to know.
