For now I have less than 0.5 BTC but I am trying to get more and more. and I hope I can soon buy a lot more when I received my paycheck this month.
At this moment i have 0.1 BTC and around 0.6 worth of altcoins. Im still trying to trade to be able to get more bitcoin while participating in signature campaign. I started from buying 0.03 worth of BTC last May when i come back here in forum after several months of forgeting bitcoin, from May until now, I cashed out total of around 1 BTC (converted it to fiat for the daily needs) and then that first line I said.
I have no problem with the concept of trading to increase your bitcoin holdings, and it could be that you have some kind of strategy and/or system that allows you to build your bitcoin holdings based upon trading...
On the other hand, to me, it appears as if you are trading way too large of a percentage of your BTC allocated funds that are placed in a kind of trading cycle.
More or less you have less than 15% in BTC and more than 85% in trading funds.
Seems more like gambling, rather than any kind of sound investment strategy, yet surely folks have their own systems.
My personal system is nearly the opposite of yours. I only trade BTC by buying on the way down and selling on the way up. I try not to engage in complicated transactions and I continue to build my BTC portfolio. Since my funds are mostly only in fiat and BTC, I don't have as much to keep track of, yet I also do not have as much upside potential (but that is a choice that I have made, also based on my other non-crypto investments, too).
Currently, I may be a bit too much allocated towards BTC, especially after prices came down from the upper $700s, and at that point, I was probably around 90% BTC, and when the price dipped down to the lower $500s, I became around 98% BTC, yet now, my allocation is around 95% BTC. Sure, I am trading with quite higher amounts than you, but I would think that safe principles to attempt to increase your BTC holdings would be figure out some decent proportions while at the same time preserving some of the BTC that you have accumulated... Maybe even 50% allocation towards trading, under current market conditions may be more reasonable, as compared to 85%? That's my thinking in terms of taking some of the gambling out of the allocations..
