This thread is interesting but it is definitely gambling. Whether or not you come out on top will be dependent entirely on luck. The only viable way to invest in crypto is a long term position, but right now it's pretty late for that.

Wow, if you really did it, you have probably earned a lot of money since the price really dropped towards $13000, it is between those levels at the moment, and i do not think that it will go upto $20k in a near time.

Uh, really not sure what to do about the ripple position \

2 positions:

.15 btc @ 18x leverage: 2.7 btc short @ 13840

1000 ripple purchase @ 1.16

Got out of BTC @ 17000~ for a loss.

Ripple got out at 2.6~ for a decent win.

I believe this will be a bear trap:

Undecided right now. Not going to short or go long.

But I am leaning towards bearish right now.

Doubt that will be a good idea. Worst case scenario BTC will go back to $15k and then go back probably.

Right now people are buying into BCH for whatever reason. Mainly fomo because they've seen how high BCH has rallied in the past and they're afraid that they're going to miss that train to the top, so nobody is cashing out yet.

Of course as a fork of bitcoin(even though it's more of an alt), whatever BCH does, BTC usually does the opposite.

I doubt this BCH rally will carry on much longer, and i doubt that this BTC slump will be sustained much longer either. This price level under $17k in a bullish market like this just won't sustain. If you look at the dip when we initially broke $10k, that adjustment seems to be similar to the current one. I'm going long at the moment.

Apparently BTC has been venturing towards a bearish market as I suspected, but I wasn't very confident about my instincts, simply because it was so so bullish previously.

Planning on entering a position with ripple/usd.

What are your plans for ripple and usd, right now I would be shorting it if anything but shorting anything in crypto is a risky business, especially if you're leveraging it. I'm interested as to why you'd pick ripple whatever direction you're going with it.

I did pretty well, although I gambled, by selling near 16500 and exiting the position at 13000.

This is my current BTC position:

December 10

Entry: 13900
Position: Long
Size: 10 btc (20x leverage. 0.5 btc margin)

I'm contemplating closing the position but I want to see how things go tonight and tomorrow morning.

Happy trading!

If you totally closed your 20x margin position, this is good for you because bitcoin raised a lot after you closed your position above. I wouldn't make short positions on bitcoin. NEVER and EVER!

So you entered at 13900 and sold at 17600, 3700 profit. And you played with 10btc, thus 37k profit, how does this end up to 12k ?

I was using another platform that charged a lot of fees for borrowing money to leverage. I've now switched to Magnr, which is much more trustworthy and transparent, and a bit less fees.

Profit: $12,000 (after fees)



I'm glad you took some profits. CME futures opens on Monday. It might go well, it might not, but it makes sense to sit in cash while it plays out.
