Sigh. Did a BIG blunder by going all-in and lost $300. Burned, and lesson duly learned. Never all-in, again.
@omonuyak: Thank you, of course I will keep at it - but I understand I can't always be right. Happy to learn

@MFahad: Yes, learning it the hard way now! I really need to *invest* and *hold*. Temptations and emotions are recipes for disaster, and I am playing with fire x(
@richkellj: Patience and holding is indeed the way to go - and I'd better imbibe it pronto. Thank you!
@Kevin77: I quite understand the meaning of that now. For instance, when I thought I made a good profit by selling what I had for $2900, had I waited about a week, it would have been a lot more. And from what I have been reading here on this forum, BTC is headed for $4k. Guess there's no better time to learn for someone like yours truly!
@webtricks: Thank you - yes, I am trying to make the most of the ETH surge now. Won't touch BTC.
@iram1011: Nicely put. I sure hope to invest more in BTC - price surge or no price surge.
@fearcoka: Wow, really can't see this coming down to $2k again. Can I get a time machine somewhere, please? #wishful
@ThunderCatSteve: Interesting - what's also challenging for me, is already converting my weaker currency (where I live) to a stronger one (USD/EUR) and then put that in BTC. I think I've done a 'decent' job, CEX's commission/fees and my own credit card's mark-ups (for FOREX purchases) notwithstanding.
@aardvark15: You nailed it - very hard indeed to gauge when BTC will drop. Not that it is easier in, say ETH, but at least alt coins like that are affordable and I can look to actively trade them.
Really hope to get some more BTC soon.
@charlescoin: Ahhh, yes, just that keeping track of flash crashes can be hard - timezones, damn them!
@setupbounds: Oh yes, one demo account I dabbled with was the one available on hitBTC. Any others that anyone else knows of? Thanks!
