It all comes down to preparation. The market is 100% predictable. The implication for us traders is that, it is possible to know that a move is going to happen, several days/weeks/months before it occurs - so, if your strategy is proficient in exposing these kinds of opportunities to you, it makes it thoroughly simple to make money. You can pour on the size whilst you're accumulating in preparation for the market to move into the distribution phase - once the market reaches the distribution phase, it is impossible for those who bought during accumulation to lose

ROTFL

I used to think like that but that's when I wasn't as skilled as I am now. I'm not one of the big boys yet, but I am getting there.
The only reason I'm not a 100 btc trader right now is because I missed several boats where I could have tripled up easy.
The ones I did catch, I only put small amounts in the trade so I thought I was getting somewhere but I was just spinning my wheels and going nowhere

you really do have to stop thinking so much about losing, when I did that it started happening for me. Very slowly.
I would make 1 btc here, 2 btc there, another 2 btc, a random 4 btc haul. That wouldn't be possible if i was still trying to play small

i am not an expert like the others, but because I too want to be where they are I can say that small trades will not get you there fast,
I tried that and made losses for nearly 6 months. Now I dont even trade every day but the money I make now is nearly 3 times as much.

Just my 2 cents

I Lol'd


I Lol'd again

yep diversification is an impossibility at this point with the common basket of altcoins that trade on multiple exhanges


This 20% thing is what people say when trying sound like they know what they're doing. But when asked why they use this as a "rule of thumb" they have no explanation. Because there is none

It's a flawed strategy, no matter how you look at it

sure someone with 800 btc may only be able to physically trade 20% of his portfolio, but still that's 150 btc right there

if someone with only 1 btc was to only trade 20% of this, they can only ever make .2 btc trades which will only deliver chicken change. And if they don't actually know how to trade, they will lose whether they trade big or small. So this doesn't make any sense


I don't think anyone said that someone should invest 100% of their btc, even if that was said, I don't see what would be the issue with doing this?

But if you only have 1 btc then yeah, you want to be going in with a full 1 btc because 1 btc has a higher potential to earn than .2 btc

People say all the time that there are no guarantees in trading... these people aren't the ones who are making cash hand over fist in crypto. They are the ones who keep losing

for me, there is no way I will make a trade if there isn't room to profit. Thats the whole thing behind making money from trading, knowing what the outcome of your trade will be due to the preparation you undertook beforehand

so, more often than not, when i do commit to making a trade my goal is to maximize profit. How do you maximize profit? By putting more money into the trade. It's not rocket science


+ 1

I don't take the term "risk" that literally. That word is only used because trading was looked at as gambling back in the day and old school professional gamblers always referred to their pot as their risk.

when your trading, the whole point is to eliminate risk and the only way to do that is doing your homework and only betting on the best of the best opportunities

if i think i am going to win, my next thought after that will not be to ensure that I am not trading more than 20% of my portfolio (i am not an idiot) my thoughts would be to get as much money in as i can so that i can make the largest amount of profit that is possible

and you have proven that you don't know what diversification is because there is no way to diversify with altcoins, yet you keep mentioning "diversification" like some sort of imbecile

but never mind.....you keep playing the markets with "only 20%" of your portfolio you rookie

i'll be in the deep end of the pool while you pussy foot around in the shallow side with all the other non-winners

lol...I am going to stop responding because this is silly - I was just saying my opinion, I am not trying to convince you how to trade.

I understand what diversification means, thank you. I do profit, and with this method.
And no, I am not a real doctor lol
The point is, if you are trading, you cannot be 100% certain, there is some level of risk.

What coin would you suggest to those with 1 BTC to invest all of their portfolio in?

Do yourself a favor man. Just stop responding, your sounding like some washed up retard at this point

Diversification is for idiots

Plus I don't think you even fully understand what diversification is. How the hell can you diversify when every altcoin has been cloned from one out of four currencies.

Diversification would be buying some stock in the agriculture sector, some in media, some in telecommunications and so on

there is no diversification in crypto lol because, fundamentally, every coin is the same..... looks like it is you who isn't a "serious trader". Seriously do you even make money bro?



But why? Why is 20% a rule of thumb? what is so special about this 20% figure in particular lol... you don't have the answers do you? this theory is total horseshit

and I don't invest 100% of my "portfolio" bro I am playing with more than 20 BTC now. It may not be much, but you definately can't fit 20 BTC into one coin. But if I only had 1 to 5 BTC then your damn right I would be investing in one coin that I have done my homework on, because who the hell wants to make 40 trades for some shitty $50

and your forgetting, holding BTC is actually a trade between BTC and USD. So since you keep talking about "portfolios" and "diversification" and other things that you know nothing about........no matter how much BTC you put into a trade it can never be 100% of your portfolio, unless you have put all of your USD into BTC also


You missed the point again doc (im not surprised) (your not a real doctor are you?) (how much did you pay for your degree?)

the point is, which kind of lunatic would invest $40 Billion into something that they aren't certain will make them money. That doesn't happen. So if they are dead sure about winning, wouldn't their concern be to put as much money as possible toward their view on the market so that they can reap the biggest reward possible? Ever heard of profit maximization?

If there was some rookie trader (like you) ranting and raving because they have surpassed "20%" of their portfolio, he'd probably lose his job and be blackballed by the entire finance industry

I'm disappointed in you doc

Also, to your Goldman Sachs statement. Clearly you are not fully aware of how this works. They invest $40 Billion into a market, and you ask are they scared of losing 20% of their portfolio? If it was all actually out of their portfolio 100% yeah sure, they have pros analyzing risk, but mainly, they get OTHER people to invest in their funds and investments as well...they dont put all of the money up themselves - and you think Goldman Sachs puts 100% of their portfolio in anything? NEVER.

Alright, I am not trying to start a long conversation here, was just putting in my 2 cents.


1. To quantum, I keep calling 1 BTC a portfolio. Yes, that's because of the situation I was responding to. Read above, and someone asked about investing with 1 BTC.


TO SANTA

2. Re-read my inverse (negative) relationship statement you read above, you seem stuck on that lol If you re-read it, I said that this DOES NOT exist...so, I am not sure why you are asking for such a pair.

3. About my small scenario of one coin going up, and one going down: sorry I did not take my time out to write a super specific example, but thank you for clarifying. Yes, if one coin goes up 50% and one down the same rate, you will be even. Good job bud. From my experience, diversifying has helped me profit much more than putting all of my eggs in one basket.

4. My main point that you do not seem to see, instead you are getting stuck on little details, is that DIVERSIFYING your portfolio is super important, especially in crypto's. If you disagree, then you are not a serious trader.

As for my logic behind 20% of portfolio, sometimes I might go more, sometimes less, just a rule of thumb I like to start with.

If you invest 100% of your portfolio in a coin each time, and profit, then move on 100% to a new coin then...please..please PM me lol

lol he keeps calling 1 btc a portfolio

Dude 1 btc is like $312 lol thats like a fun sized portfolio for kids

if all you have is 1 BTC then you should be focusing on increasing that to a more meaningful amount so that you can actually make money

it's pointless trying to trade .2 btc several times for only $12.00 in profits when other people make $4000 from just one trade

or he's just a shitty trader

reminds me of approach anxiety, like guys that don't approach girls because they think they wont get the digits

some people trade to lose, some guys trade to win. It's a difference in mentality I think

I like you, so I won't fully expose your ignorance. But sadly, after reading that drivel you just put together i think everyone is now fully aware of your limited insight

we all know forex doesn't have any real intrinsic value either, everyone in crypto has watched almost 100 documentaries that explain how fiat currency is a scam based on "preceived value". Whats the difference between monopoly money and a dollar bill?

That's what forex is, playing different fiat currency pairs against each other. So that market is driven by pure speculation. Sure there is a demand for fiat currencies, there is also a very similar demand for crypto currencies, just on a smaller scale

I don't follow news, that's an idiots game. I search for extending periods of buying so that I can join in and reap the benefits a week or two later


Why invest anything then if this is how you feel? If this is your stance then you are in the wrong business bud.

Putting even $30 of your "portfolio" in "some coin that can very easily go down 80% or go up 50%" is still a risky proposition if this is how you think

If you are on the money then the coin you are trading will be at the bottom, or close to the bottom and there are ways to work this out. If you get it right, then you are in the money. Who cares if the coin goes down 20% within a week, if it goes up 400% within a month

you can't nickle and dime the market bro


This is real loopy doc

tell me which coins have "inverse" relationships, I would love to know



no.. if one goes up and one goes down, YOU MAKE NO MONEY lol anyone who can over complicate the process of making no money at all is special indeed

why exactly are you hedging some shitty .2BTC trade I don't get it? What am I missing here?


I don't trade to triple or quadruple or any of that rubbish. I trade so that I don't have to trade

Anyone who talks more about losing than winning is a mark and has no business telling me how to make money.

Imagine you go to a trading seminar to learn how to make money from trading, and the first thing you are told is "put .2 BTC in some coin thatchu like and um, um find another coin that has some sort of inverse relationship that you can hedge with, then after all of this grunt work one coin will go up and the other will go down............ but you make no money"

and you still haven't told me what the logic is behind your magical 20% figure lol im still waiting to hear that one

Hi Santa,
Let me explain my thoughts.

Unlike stocks/forex, cryptos have no true, real-world demand. So, based off of news is no way to really invest in a crypto with any true certainty, are your news sources twitter? lol So, using technical analysis to see if a coin is over-sold, is just keeping a status on what the big boys are doing, but its manipulation its not a true market, so the technical analysis, only goes so far.

Given this, why invest 100% of your portfolio in some coin that can very easily go down 80% or go up 50%...

Hedging is a very basic strategy that should be used in trading. Off-set risk by investing in another coin. Ideally, the best way to hedge is to find coins that have inverse relationships...since there is no true demand even this is impossible to find. Derivatives in coins are not legit yet either.

So, what if you invest 100% in a coin that goes down 40%...that loss is huge...but even if you had gone 50/50, one goes down one goes up, then you off-set your risk a little, and in this scenario, which is very common, the hedging paid off.

If you want to try to make big bucks (triple your portfolio) overnight, sure try investing 100% of your portfolio see how that goes.

Or..you can really learn how to trade and triple you money in 6 weeks in this market with much less risk, while avoiding major downfalls that will set you back months.

Yeah if your a shitty trader you will always be a shitty trader i dont think it matters how large or how small your trades are.

Smaller trades will only make your long-term loss occur slowly.

Like people who smoke pot regularly may not see the effects the next day, but they will eventually, many years down the line, when their brain begins to slow, they have cognition problems and the like...Thats the death by a thousand cuts theory

I have a problem with a few of the things you said


Where does this 20% figure come from? Out of every number you could have used you settled with 20%? Is this some type of magic number or something?

When Goldman Sachs buys $40 Billion worth of oil do you think they are worried about whether or not they are risking "20%" of their "portfolio"?

Im just trying to understand the thinking behind this special 20% number


"good profits" is a very subjective statement

When i trade I want the biggest bang for my buck so if I am afraid of losing then I don't trade. There is no pussy footing about trying to take smaller bets to compensate for sloppy trading

you should only trade when you are dead sure that you are on the heels of a big move and have several indicators confirming your theory. Then you can put on the big money trades and also rake in larger profits

The only reason you would pussy foot around and take some pathetic .2 BTC trade is when your fear overpowers your confidence (or lack of) in which case that would mean that you really shouldn't be trading at all

If you take 1 BTC and only invest .2 here and there in a bunch of coins that "you like" how is that a more superior strategy than say putting 1 BTC into a coin that you have researched and ran analysis on? I'm interested to hear your theory on this, because A 40% return on 1 BTC is .4 BTC, the same return on .2 is .08

That's like throwing a hand full of gravel at a bird. You will probably kill the bird but only after several failed attempts and you will need a whole lot of gravel and arm strength to do that. But if you throw one humungous stone at that same bird you can kill it with one shot

Uuumm...no..if you have 1 BTC do NOT invest 100% of in a coin that is "over-sold" - there is no true demand for these markets besides, Bitcoin and maybe...lite or doge - don't invest more than 20% of your portfolio in one coin, never put all of your eggs in one basket. I have found good profits with 1 BTC, from investing .2 BTC in 3 coins I like and saving .4 liquid BTC.

07 Dec - 17 Dec
Total return: 102%
Coins: SDC, QSLV

When trading is going well it will seem effortless. If trading isn’t going well, you can’t force it right by working harder. If you are in a particularly bad trading period, when nearly every decision you make seems to be wrong, trying harder won’t help. It will only make matters worse. You can work harder in doing more research. You can work harder in trying to figure out what’s going wrong. But you can’t work harder at trading. If you are out of sync with the markets, trying harder will often make the situation even worse. The hard work in trading comes in the preparation. The actual process of trading, however, should be effortless. You have to let the arrow shoot itself. In trading, whenever there is effort, force, straining, struggling, or trying, it’s wrong. The perfect trade is one that requires no effort.

SDC


Most Coins behave uniquely when compared with others. This is due to the psychology of the people who are trading them. Different Coins have different batches of traders behind them, and so they behave differently. One Coin may have a habit of trending, while another will have a habit of staying range bound.

Once you begin to authentically tune into tracking price movement, you’ll notice that coins repeat similar patterns over and over again and have set things that they do in both the short and long term time frames. Once you begin to take advantage of this, your odds of making money will skyrocket. In fact, for traders, this is one of the most potent means of pulling consistent returns.

Now here’s the thing about SDC. From Sep 14, to Nov 13, SDC was probably the most predictable coin in the entire Crypto market. Not only was it predictable, but the turnaround time between opening and closing a trade - with profit - was quite swift. And, to add to that, if you look at the chart you will see that trading volume was maintained at a very high level during this period.

On Sep 14 SDC moved from 16452 and hit 27400 by Sep 23 – a 66% gain.

The price then began to fall into decline from 27400, making a smooth landing at 13972 on Oct 19. That’s a -49% decline in value.

From this point, the price then rocketed to 36500 on Nov 18, providing a 161% profit to those who were prudently milking this coin for endless piles of BTC.

It doesn’t end there though. You see, after hitting 36500... SDC shed -52% of value after a period of decline which came to an end when the price crash landed at 17172 on Dec 3

What happened next?

You guessed it...

SDC sprang back into action, as it has done so many times before.. a slow crawl upwards turned into a stampede as price range after price range was breached, one after the other.

After hitting a low of 17172 on Dec 3, SDC hit 40000 last night – putting out a 132% profit to every trader who was in-tune with these exploitable patterns.  

There are some traders who are reading this that have already realised what the exploitable pattern here is.

For those who haven’t...



Price Patterns are like cheat sheets that give you the most unfair advantage over the average market participant. They reveal all of the relevant price points within a price cycle that can be exploited, again and again, for continuous profit.
 

Tip: There are several solutions to properly defining the behaviour of the crypto market and, once you become aware of them, trading will become like operating your own personal money machine.  Winning streaks often lead to complacency. This is something I stress to members. Complacency  leads to sloppy trading. In these winning periods, traders are least likely to consider what might go wrong, especially worst case scenarios. The moral is: when your positions are sailing to new highs almost daily, and when all of your trades are working, be 10 times more cautious! These are the times to guard against complacency and to be extra alert in order to lock profits in.


QSLV


After seeing the price tumble -85% from 11100 on Nov 14 to 1600 on Nov 30, many would have assumed QSLV to be just another “shitcoin” relegated to the pages of history never to return again.

This clearly wasn’t the case.

A coin that is in danger of becoming obsolete or “dead” won’t receive any attention whatsoever from the market after such a rapid decline in value.

However, that isn’t what I saw here. What I saw was small amounts of BTC entering this market incrementally. What I saw was the price surging upward and then being forced back down as jittery novice traders relinquished their positions, one after the other, due to the fear of losing out.

What I saw was accumulation.

After establishing what the accumulation price range was, I rigged up my buy orders in order to catch some falling fruit as the trees were being shook

You see, the aim of the game is to purchase the largest possible portion of a coin during accumulation. The larger the position, the greater the profit.

Those that get this right are able to scale out of their positions as prices are rising – via both the sell side and buy side, giving them much more flexibility than those who use a more static method of liquidating profit.  
 

Tip: Do more of what works and less of what doesn’t. This is unnecessary to state, but what is surprising is how many traders fail to adhere to this seemingly obvious principle. Some traders may be good at taking well thought out longer term positions, but then also take short-term trades based on whims in which they have no edge. Many traders may not even be fully aware of where they are making and losing money. One useful thing that you can do is to analyze your past trades by segmenting winners and losers. Often, such analysis will reveal patterns with certain types of trades being predominant in either the winning or losing categories. When you find that certain types of trades are making money and other types of trades are losing money then, as I advised earlier, do more of what works and less of what doesn’t.

SIDENOTE: You want to eliminate as many poor-percentage and high risk trades from your repertoire as possible. Once you have done this, you will see a dramatic boost in your overall profitability. Trading less and taking only the best-percentage trades are such an important part of pulling consistent wins. Ask yourself before each trade, “why am I taking this trade?” If you don’t have an answer – or can’t justify the answer, then skip the trade.  To develop the mentality needed to win in Crypto, you must develop a high probability strategy. It is as simple as that. You must have the discipline to sit and wait for only the most optimal trades where all the factors of a bull run are lined up and painfully obvious. Only then should you be putting on a trade.

Note: BTC is a buy right now. Pay attention to the price and execute your buys at the low points. Oct - Dec will be very interesting.

Wtf

this is exactly what i have been doing, it makes sense now when you put it like that. i thought by taking smaller positions my risk would also be small? i guess not

i sent you a message not too long ago btw about joining your group? im looking forward to hearing something back

thanks alot
