Most of the trading strategies for bitcoin are not unique to bitcoin and you can find them with any sort of commodity. Bitcoin does have some unique properties to it...
1) It takes about an hour to verify a bitcoin. This makes it extremely difficult to take advantage of a difference in price by buying bitcoin in one place and selling at another or exchange it with the help of
Cryptocurrency Exchange Software. I think it would be possible to use this fact to somehow make money although I've tried a few things and none of them have really worked.
2) There are differences in transaction fee and volume on the different exchanges.
3) There is a strong connection between bitcoin trading and China.
The other thing is that the bitcoin markets are evolving rapidly, so I don't think it would be possible to do month to month trading since everything changes so much from month to month. You might be able to find a pattern that will allow a day to day trading or week to week, but bitcoin trading is so volatile that I'm finding that bitcoin trading is a full-time job and one that doesn't pay particularly well.
With me, for example, I'm finding that bitcoin trading is part of my full-time job, and it does not pay enough to pay for my living expenses. This is fine because I'm an entrepreneur and I have some cash reserves to fund my living expenses. I figure if I automate some things, and get better at trading, I will likely make enough money to cover most of my living expenses, and if some of my other projects work out, I might be able to live a decent middle-class lifestyle, but even this is going take a lot of hard work.
The thing that I don't think I'll *ever* be able to do realistically is getting super rich by bitcoin trading. I might be able to get super-rich by doing other things, but not bitcoin trading. I might be able to make decent amounts of money, but if I wanted to maximize income, I never would have left (insert big investment bank).
