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.
OPAL
This is an interesting coin. Whereas most coins seem to follow patterns based on High / Low price points, OPAL seems to be exhibiting rather unorthodox movement.
If you click onto the ALL chart for OPAL, you will see that if you had bought into this coin at its 24hr low on the 15th of October , you would have made an 82% gain by the 20th of October. If that doesn’t sound significant, then I’ll continue. Let's say you bought into OPAL at its 24hr low last Saturday, which was the 15th of November, you would have made a 119% profit today – the 20th of November.
Trading is a game of finding an edge and exploiting price patterns for your own benefit. The fact that we have seen almost 1:1 identical price action occur twice means that this is now a tool that can be added to your repertoire to give you an edge over the average market participant.
Sure OPAL was repeatedly bouncing between the 300 – 600 price range throughout October, that adds to the predictability of this market – but the fact that it has rallied between the 15th and 20th of both October and November makes OPAL slightly more of an interesting play than most other Coins.
Resistance is still super low... It wouldn’t hurt to keep an eye on this market.
Tip: The cycle of accumulation and distribution is repeated endlessly and across the entire Crypto market. Some may be major moves, some minor. This is how Skilled traders repeatedly use the actions of novice traders to line their pockets with cash. The more experienced you become, the clearer it will be to you that this market is driven by two things; fear and greed. That’s it. When fear is at its highest, people sell. When prices are rallying and people become greedy, everyone buys. It’s all very simple and logical. It is often said that skilled traders win consistently because they play the game backwards... I tend to agree.
LTCD
Prior to Sunday’s low of 354 Sats, LTCD had never been in the 300 Satoshi price range at any point during its entire tenure on Bittrex.
Now, if LTCD was a coin that has never managed to attract any significant volume – this wouldn’t mean much. But, as most of us know, LTCD has managed to attract and maintain a steady stream of volume since mid September. Therefore the fact that, throughout this week, LTCD has been trading at a new low indicates that a larger move is in the works.
Yesterday, the price plunged even lower into the 200 range. It would have been criminal to not dip at least one toe into this lagoon of easy profit.
In this market, you need to pay attention to historical price points. In fact, you must pay attention to historical price points. This is how you; 1. Stay ahead of the curve, 2. Make easy money and 3. Tilt 90% of your activity in this market into the realm of consistent profitability.
You don’t need an assortment of smoke screens or voodoo priests to consistently win in Crypto. All you need is an ounce of common sense, a strategy and patience.
Common sense tells me that if LTCD has fallen into a brand new low – upward resistance is now an absolute myth. There is nothing in the form of a sell order blocking my path toward uncomplicated ROI – simply because no one has ever bought into LTCD at this price point = bargain, wholesale rate, high probability opportunity - guaranteed profit.
LTCD is the current PumpersPicks Coin of the Week, and I have so many alerts placed on this coin that it isn’t even funny anymore. I am maintaining both a long and short term position in LTCD. The lower it goes the better – in fact, I have a perfect analogy for you guys – especially for those who aren’t too experienced and are worried about “bag holding”... Fear not, it is in this climate that you would want to have the fattest “bag” in the land, here’s why:
Remember I said in an earlier post; Skilled traders only get paid due to the fact that unskilled traders just won’t stop making the same mistakes? I’ve also said: deciding when to get into and out of a high quality coin is as simple as understanding the difference between retail and wholesale pricing, so let’s call the current behaviour that LTCD is exhibiting the “accumulation” phase.
Before skilled traders can really go into a market and make shit tonne of money, they need to make sure that they have enough Coin – or inventory – to meet demand. Think of this as a wholesaler, about to launch a major advertising campaign for a particular product. The last thing any wholesaler would want to do is spend time, effort and money launching a campaign, only to discover that after a few days there is no more inventory. It’s a simple game of supply V demand. If demand is built then there must be supply to meet this demand.
But how do they fill their warehouses before starting a campaign? This is where accumulation comes in.
During the build up to the campaign, the price action begins to follow a typical pattern similar to what we are seeing with LTCD (and BTC btw), where the market is repeatedly moved higher and lower. This type of action is essential to “shake” sellers out of the market. Think of this like shaking fruit from a tree. The tree has to be shaken repeatedly in order for all the crop to fall. Some of the crop is more firmly attached and takes effort to release – just like in Crypto. Some holders will refuse to sell – but eventually they give up after several false draw downs generally at the point where the campaign is almost underway and when the skilled participants are ready to take the market higher with fully stocked warehouses.
This happens over and over... again and again. Time after time unskilled traders stay out of optimal markets because “there is just no volume to work with.” Or, they get shaken out because they don’t want to be left with “the bag”... this is a shame. Because all you have to do is look at the bigger picture. Be aware of your coins historical price points, ask yourself ‘what is the prevailing trend?‘ ‘what is the all time high / low of this coin?’ Only then will you be able to take advantage of these wholesale rates.
So again I repeat: My market philosophy is quite simple. Trading Crypto is not dissimilar to purchasing fine art. If you are to achieve any level of continued success, then you must buy only the best paintings, by the best artists, at the best prices. This will provide you with the easiest profits that there are to be had because there will always be wealthy traders around who look to buy only the best – thus your job is simply to get there first. Deciding when to get into and out of these high quality coins is as simple as understanding the difference between retail and wholesale pricing.
Tip: Having the patience to wait for high expected return trades greatly enhances the return/risk of individual trades. I am perfectly content to stay on the sidelines and do absolutely nothing until there is an opportunity that meets my criteria. Placing suboptimal positions will tie up your capital that could be applied to more attractive opportunities. If conditions are not right, or the return/risk isn’t adequately favourable, don’t do anything. Be wary of taking dubious trades due to impatience. If you have a good enough edge, then you will spot opportunity where other don’t and profit greatly because of it.
SIDENOTE: Most people in Crypto tend to view trades as a two-step process: a decision when (or where) to enter - and a decision when (or where) to exit. It may be better to view trading as a ‘dynamic’ process between entry and exit points – rather than a static one. Personally, I tend to take some money off the table when the market is in my favour . The basic idea is that the position size of a trade would be reduced on a profitable move upwards and then rebuilt on a subsequent correction – putting me in a stronger position over and over again. Any time I have pulled some money from the table, and the market retraced back to my original entry point - I generate a profit that otherwise would not have been achieved.
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.

0.5BTC seems like a high amount...
Hi there.
It depends how you view it.
If you were (almost) a complete newbie like I was, you can view it as a week long training session. The price I suspect would compare favourably to a more format training course (if any exist).
For me - I did this about a month ago I think, and no I didn't make money even though the picks were good (mainly because the tools I used were failing to trigger conditional orders - I'm looking at you cryptotrader - grrr). However, the techniques that I picked up from Ryan I feel were worth my .5btc.
Since then I have been practicing those techniques, and getting better and much more disciplined in my approach (I'm now much *much* better with regards to limiting losses), and getting to grips with the trading tools available.
Last weekend I got my first +>100% gain on a trade
If you are already disciplined in your approach to trading then I would recommend Ryan (to make money with).
If you are a complete newbie who wants to learn about this sort of trading and eliminate common mistakes, with the possiblility of making the .5btc back I would also recommend him.
I suspect I will sign up again with him once I feel I can fully utilise his tips and make good money with them.
Cheers
Dave

Hey Ryan,
Fellow trader here. I use similar strategies as you, it is all a common sense game. One of the biggest tips to newbie investors is to not over-hold! If you can make a quick 20%, do not be afraid to sell, because if you try to hold until that 40% the chances are you will lose.
Also, check into Intellicoin
Seems to have real potential

KORE is flying
XSt is a great call ryan. If you swing trade though you wont see the full potential but you'll still make money. XST is a true ANON winner. Peer reviews done on the code and the dev is highly respected by some of the greatest minds on the forum.

so i'm building my trading pot. This is my third week on the teamI like the trade info. It good sound advice.
I went with KORE.
Noticed some talk about it on Twitter, also seems they are releasing their wallet with Anon VOIP on the 15th of sept.
Bought myself some shares earlier .. just watching it go up slowly now.

Signed up for my 2nd week...the knowledge I have learnt from Ryan has helped my trading massively
Long time reader here. I enjoy your perspective especially your views on charts and technical analysis
Finished the week 1.9btc up, started with .7btc so nice run overall
Just signed for this week so hoping for a repeat performance

Would just like to say thank you Ryan, all of the tips you've given so far have helped me realise potential trades.
I've noticed patterns and trend changes quite quicker than I used to and have a rough idea of where the market is going.
That being said I have made no money this week, I set my buy orders too low on a few coins the day/night before they rally'd up. Knowing I could've made money this week is a much better feeling than losing.
Most of the activity happens between 8 & 10am my time and I'm usually in bed till gone 12, need to change that if I want to get in at the start of a rally.
I'd definitely recommend others to take a step back and see what happens.
Thanks.

Hey Ryan thanks for the heads up on SDC that was my first big profit. I like the whole get in early on the way up then exit, then get back in when the price crashes to make additional money from the rebound.
after parlaying 0.3 btc into 1.7 btc with only two trades of the same coin I feel like theres so much more i can do. Hopefully every trade will be this easy lool
looking forward to the rest of the week

Thanks for that inside track on CND. Closed out a 143 percent profit today
yep the IRC is plush! I made .7 btc from one SLR trade on Sunday which isn't much when compared to everyone else, but looking to put my best foot forward this week to make even more.
in his "picks of the week" he PMed on the 6th of Sept he said to get into KORE, anything under 20k would be great.
Later that day it was sitting at 16k, slowly went up to 20K.
If you got in early and held on to it till KORE was getting near their anon VoIP wallet you'd have been able to sell early and exit at 30k (like I did) or play hard and get 33k+ out of it (it spiked at 35k about 3 hours ago).
Yep 0.5BTC is a big price if you're a small time trader like me, but for those who wanna play big, cheap ticket to more profit.

great picks!!
very impressive so far Ryan. Started the week with .6 btc and traded up to 3.7 btc. I was pushing for a full 4 btc which is a nice round number LOL but can't complain. Really impressed because i came in with average expectations which you surpassed by miles. Thanks for your help today as well, it was very much appreciated.
but can't complain. Really impressed because i came in with average expectations which you surpassed by miles. Thanks for your help today as well, it was very much appreciated. I made 254% on cnd. I' m very happy with that.
The tips and advice have been invaluable especially for someone like me who has been winning but then losing.
The advice alone has put me on a steadier course and i am making more gains then losses for the first time so that is super cool.
I would like to take things a step further by trading alongside you and your team. Would love to get into the group before tomorrow. Please

Hi.
First of all, thanks for the info you are sharing. Please keep posting the older info, I like this thread, I use it to learn, not to trade YET.
Second: for the giveaway, the only requirement is retweet? More retweets increase the chance? Or..?
Thanks.

I made 60% on FTC this week due to your tips. Thanks RYAN PUMPER.
With Ryan it's almost like a daily lecture on how to spot coins that are going to rise before everyone else does which really starts to rub off on you after a while. We got into VIACOIN before everyone else so when the rally started the uninformed were actually panic buying our sell orders that we placed several hours before for a 50% profit. I guess this is where the value is i suppose
I like your insight and been following for some months now.
.35 btc to start the day . I could send you a tip if you want? Very pleased with this after being in a losing streak for so long. Feels great to back to even after just one trade it's such a relief

Total return: 123%
Coins: FC2, SDC
If one wants to be a serious trader, one should do whatever possible to get on the same playing field as the professionals. Since everyone else is trying as hard as possible to win, it’s important to get all the edge you can. You won’t win a battle with rocks and sticks when fighting against those who have cannons and missiles. Traders with the best working knowledge of reading the Altmarkets have a distinct advantage over everyone else. They are better able to pick out the optimal trading opportunities and have a better sense of where and when to enter or exit a market.
FC2
FC2 has provided many a trader with excessive amounts of profit. The vigour and ferocity behind the current up-trend doesn’t need to be rationalized – only exploited for continuous profit.
Time and time again I have dipped into and then out of FC2 all whilst maintaining a long position. Such a strategy can only be employed in markets that are being supported with a multitude of trading volume.
At first glance, the FC2 chart may not look too significant. That is until you peel back the top layer and asses the ALL chart
FC2 has been in a prolonged uptrend since October, providing traders with the rare delight of going long for a month straight. FC2 has had an almost undisturbed ascent from 485 Satoshi, to a gargantuan 7520 Satoshi – a 1450% gain.
Before getting into a Coin I look to see that the market is in optimal condition to provide a favourable return. This is something I repeatedly stress to members – you have to “wait for movement” before you dive in. It is that simple. Once you have grasped that one ideology, you will be able to effectively take advantage of market momentum – letting the market carry all of your trades towards profit, instead of trying to trade against the market in an attempt to impose your own opinion on a trade – the market will always punish those that trade against the tide.
My entire agenda was to secure a position within the 4K range. I wasn’t too concerned with an exact entry point – I knew that the value would jump by at least 60 – 70% if the price fell into the 4K area – which is where I had my order strategically placed.
So many novices get destroyed by fighting the trend, insisting that the market is due to reverse itself. They may try to catch short-term moves in hopes of making a few quick wins, or they are always looking to catch tops and bottoms in hopes of capturing big moves, without any confirmation. All of these guys end up trading against the prevailing trend and, more often than not, end up getting wiped out.
Tip: One thing to keep in mind is the importance of using volume when you are looking at what a market is doing. I use volume to confirm price movement. When the price of a Coin moves with strong volume, the market is more likely to follow through, whether it is a reversal or a matter of following the trend during a rally. Volume shows the demand for the Coin and determines the strength of the trend. If the price moves up while volume increases, a trend is more likely to stay strong. On the flipside, when volume begins to wane during an upmove, this is an indicator that everybody who had intentions of buying into the Coin already has a position. At that point, there is no one left to participate in the buying, which often leads to a dumping frenzy as people grow impatient and begin rushing toward the exit en masse – leading to a dramatic decline in the price.
SDC
Today’s high of 36K Satoshi symbolizes the first time SDC broken into the 30K range since August. Up until this point, SDC had been repeatedly fluctuating between 13K – 28K
What brought me into this play was the fact that the Trading Volume was rising on a daily basis.
The level of volume that has been pushed through the SDC market this month is excessively higher than the consensus that was set in September to October – which led me into the assumption that the price could break out above 28K.
Knowing the direction of the overall trend, I was happy to take on a long position.
It is always a compulsory component in my repertoire to be aware of the overall prevailing trend – thus I tend not to act due to adverse – but insignificant – price moves. This is what holds many people back. Most novice traders get shaken out of a market because they aren’t in tune with the bigger picture.
Gains like this are to be had from several coins. It all comes down to your willingness to not take the text book trade, to go against the grain and to wait for only the most optimal opportunities to gain maximum reward.
Tip: When looking at charts, I have found that moves can be seen much more clearly when you adopt a longer time perspective. All of the important price ranges become much more apparent when you begin to get further from the current time period. Personally, I like to assess the ALL Chart before jumping into a trade. This gives me a clear picture of how to exploit recurring price patterns. The smaller the time frame is, the harder it is to judge where a good exit point is. Someone who is concentrating only on a short time frame will miss things that are so obvious to those who are looking more carefully. These short sighted traders will be more susceptible to getting shaken out of a position due to insignificant price action that has nothing to do with the overall trend – yet another reason why people fail to pull consistent profit from Crypto. Personally, I know that if anything about a particular coin is important, it will already be spelled out in the Order books and on the Charts – thus I don’t need to follow updates or news events when making a trading decision. These factors combine to create a certain level of efficiency that most novice traders lack.
SIDENOTE: Most people in Crypto tend to view trades as a two-step process: a decision when (or where) to enter - and a decision when (or where) to exit. It may be better to view trading as a ‘dynamic’ process between entry and exit points – rather than a static one. Personally, I tend to take some money off the table when the market is in my favour . The basic idea is that the position size of a trade would be reduced on a profitable move upwards and then rebuilt on a subsequent correction – putting me in a stronger position over and over again. Any time I have pulled some money from the table, and the market retraced back to my original entry point - I generate a profit that otherwise would not have been achieved.
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.

If one wants to be a serious trader, one should do whatever possible to get on the same playing field as the professionals. Since everyone else is trying as hard as possible to win, it’s important to get all the edge you can. You won’t win a battle with rocks and sticks when fighting against those who have cannons and missiles. Traders with the best working knowledge of reading the Altmarkets have a distinct advantage over everyone else. They are better able to pick out the optimal trading opportunities and have a better sense of where and when to enter or exit a market.
FC2
FC2 has provided many a trader with excessive amounts of profit. The vigour and ferocity behind the current up-trend doesn’t need to be rationalized – only exploited for continuous profit.
Time and time again I have dipped into and then out of FC2 all whilst maintaining a long position. Such a strategy can only be employed in markets that are being supported with a multitude of trading volume.
At first glance, the FC2 chart may not look too significant. That is until you peel back the top layer and asses the ALL chart
FC2 has been in a prolonged uptrend since October, providing traders with the rare delight of going long for a month straight. FC2 has had an almost undisturbed ascent from 485 Satoshi, to a gargantuan 7520 Satoshi – a 1450% gain.
Before getting into a Coin I look to see that the market is in optimal condition to provide a favourable return. This is something I repeatedly stress to members – you have to “wait for movement” before you dive in. It is that simple. Once you have grasped that one ideology, you will be able to effectively take advantage of market momentum – letting the market carry all of your trades towards profit, instead of trying to trade against the market in an attempt to impose your own opinion on a trade – the market will always punish those that trade against the tide.
My entire agenda was to secure a position within the 4K range. I wasn’t too concerned with an exact entry point – I knew that the value would jump by at least 60 – 70% if the price fell into the 4K area – which is where I had my order strategically placed.
So many novices get destroyed by fighting the trend, insisting that the market is due to reverse itself. They may try to catch short-term moves in hopes of making a few quick wins, or they are always looking to catch tops and bottoms in hopes of capturing big moves, without any confirmation. All of these guys end up trading against the prevailing trend and, more often than not, end up getting wiped out.

yep the IRC is plush! I made .7 btc from one SLR trade on Sunday which isn't much when compared to everyone else, but looking to put my best foot forward this week to make even more.
P.S. also sent several messages Ryan? Would like join again for the week pls respond
My bank was 1 BTC which i spread across the coins, some came in with profit, but not nearly enough to cover the costs :/
I made 0.1 off NAUT, but i'm just bagholding now and waiting for these picks to pick up..
A bit disappointed with the week as there was only one 'momentum' play that Ryan loves, which was LXC, I watched it happen but couldn't quite grab a sell order in time.
Good communication by Ryan & the team members, I miss the IRC, but can't justify the .5BTC cost until I make it back.
I'd be interested to be involved in a week where there was actual volume.

half a bitcoin down from last week + the half a bitcoin from signup, so all up im 1btc down :/
i have followed the rules and brought on big dips, unfortunately they dipped alot further due to bitcoin rising.
not what i expected really, most coins dipped for a matter of minutes then pumped up from that dip 40%ish for a few minutes, hard to catch them in the short amount of time.
how did the rest of the team go? i know most of them were down still yesterday, perhaps things will pick back up.
also ryan no irc today?

I’ve said it before, and I’m going to say it again, because it cannot be overemphasized: the most important thing you can learn is to divorce your ego from the trade. Trading is a psychological game. Most people think that they’re playing against the market, but the market doesn’t care. You’re really playing against yourself. You have to stop trying to will things to happen in order to prove that you’re right. Listen only to what the market is telling you now. Forget what you thought it was telling you five minutes ago. The sole objective of trading is not to prove you’re right, but to hear the cash register ring.
SDC
SDC is a very interesting Coin. Not because of any cool feature or functionality, but because of how predictable it’s price patterns are. This is a Coin that has consistently held a steady level of volume since August. I’ve said it before, people don’t repeatedly throw money at something unless that thing is lining their pockets with cash.
Have a look at the ALL chart for SDC, you will see just how predictable it's price movement has been since August. You'll also realise that there are savvy traders who are constantly milking SDC for cash.
This price movement is so obvious that it confuses me to know that the entire market isn’t taking advantage of this.
Since August, SDC has dropped down into the 14k – 15K range Four times before shooting upwards into the 27K – 28K range – for a near 100% gain each time.
Why is this significant?
Well, just take a look at the volume every time SDC dips to into the 14K – 15K range, there is always around 30 – 60 BTC being brought into the market. Which suggest that there are hoards of traders who keep Buy orders at these levels at all times, knowing that if they get hit – all they have to do is place their sells for a 60% - 70% gain and then wait to be bought out.
This happens over and over again which is a testament to how strong the SDC market is.
Personally I feel that it is of utmost importance to take advantage of this kind of opportunity. You won’t get any closer than this to risk free trading.
All that is required is the ability to recognise recurring patterns, and the patience to see each move through to completion – without panicking or being swayed by market sentiment.
SDC is a solid Coin and one that can be played for continuous profit.
Tip: My market philosophy is quite simple. Trading Crypto is not dissimilar to purchasing fine art. If you are to achieve any level of continued success, then you must buy only the best paintings, by the best artists, at the best prices. This will provide you with the easiest profits that there are to be had because there will always be wealthy traders around who look to buy only the best – thus your job is simply to get there first. Deciding when to get into and out of these high quality coins is as simple as understanding the difference between retail and wholesale pricing.
SLR
SLR is another Coin that has had a strong and healthy supply of Volume since August. However, SLR has only just started to settle into a rhythm that can be exploited for profit.
The hard work in trading comes in the preparation. The actual process of trading, however, should be effortless. I will use a running analogy.
Picture someone who is completely out of shape trying to run a mile in 10 minutes. Now, picture a world-class runner running a marathon one mile after another, easy as can be.
Who is doing more hard work? Who is more successful?
Well, clearly the out of shape runner is doing more work, but the world-class runner is much more successful.
The world-class runner, however, didn’t get to this level of proficiency by just getting off the couch one day and going for one short run. He has been training hard for weeks on end. So, his hard work came in the preparation.
When he is performing successfully, however, the actual process of running should be effortless; he will run his best races when he is running effortlessly.
The same principles apply in trading.
If trading is going well. It will seem effortless, that’s the key. If you are out of sync with the markets, trying harder is often more likely to make the situation worse.
You have to be aware of what has occurred in the past when looking to assess the future profitability of a coin. You want to see that a coin has consistently delivered profits in the past prior to making your trading decision – this is the preparation.
SLR has been in the 900 – 1K price range three times during its entire lifespan on Bittrex. All three times SLR bounced from this range into 2K territory, producing 100%+ gains each time.
These are the factors that you need to be well aware of before placing your trade. Once you begin to adopt this simple preparation into your own trading strategy, you will finally realise just how simple it is to continuously win in Crypto
Tip: In these winning times, traders become susceptible to being lulled into complacency. Thus, the worst draw downs may come right after periods where just about everything seems to be working well as if it had been optimistically scripted. During winning streaks, people become greedy and fail to consider what may go wrong. The moral is: whenever you have multiple positions that are sailing to new highs and virtually all of them are working as planned and sailing to new highs daily, guard against complacency and be extra cautious.
SIDENOTE: Look at each market (coin) as a venue - a venue that has a max capacity. In our case the venues capacity, instead of human beings, can only be filled with BTC (trading volume). So, If a coin has already attracted a tremendous amount of volume, volume that is magnitudes above what the logical part of your brain would deem average levels – then that particular market is filled (or close to being filled) to its maximum capacity. Thus the only thing left to happen is for the BTC to come back out of that market – causing the value to plummet.
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.
