In reality are you in to web-hosting or investing?

To me this just sounds like an easy way to leave your industry, I should know I had run a successful company for 6 years before I sold out, not because of the coins, it was just time.

Anyways, only you can decide if it is right to buy in or no as no one can easily predict the bitcoin market for you.

I am into webhosting. I have been doing webhosting on and off, for almost 8 years. Glad to know that you were into it too.

I am not planning to leave my industry and I don't plan to become just a investor.

What I want to do is invest a little in bitcoin, since I believe in it.

Thanks for the suggestion, yea in the end it's me who has to decide for myself Grin

A little bit of speculation does help a lot though. As usually it comes to be correct.

Let's talk governance, lipstick, and pigs.

It's usually best to buy a little at a time over the course of several weeks or more. That way you catch a low point or two.

edit: or you can always wait for the 2013 clearance sale to make way for the 2014 models. There may even be an after Christmas sale! Check your local dealership.

Hi guys,

After the recent crash, now we're at around 700. Should I buy some right now? Or should I wait ?

Do you think it will drop to a lower stable price? If so, what are your reasons?

Thanks

To borrow a cheesy line from the real-estate business: Don't wait to buy Bitcoin, buy Bitcoin and wait.

I generally don't agree with bitleif, but I agree in this case.

Another cheesy line .. "Picking bottoms is a dirty business".

The truth is, most of the people posting here are long on Bitcoin. We'll quibble over whether it's too high or too low right now, but that's about it. If you don't have the stomach for this, buy in now, drop the coin into a paper wallet and don't watch the ticker for a few months. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

The wall is looking a lot healthier now, $720 is looking like a good entry point to quite a few people, why not start there?

You had to buy at $700 obviously, hard to expect the price would go much lower, now you have to wait, placing buy orders around $700-$600

Buy some now! Next week cant be worst that this weekend.
Probably its gonna go up starting tomorrow.
Anyway you might want to have some coins on your exchange to trade.

I did think that we were going to go up but now I'm not so sure. Next week certainly could be worse. I don't want to remind everyone about the media but it does seem to have an effect on things and unless anyone can correct me it's probably going to be at least mildly bleak for bitcoin in the papers for the next few days.

I will quote you again after Monday

Please do

Many people will buy in after they sold in panic but if new capitals don't flow in fast the downtrend can't be reversed and everyone will sell again soon.

at this point, if we break 780... maybe 800...on volume, i might get back in. but i dont expect that to happen. i think 780 is the top of this pennant, then down. but who knows....

I love the fact that when there is little volume we drift upwards though. Either bots or the small investors are slowly but surely buying there way in

If you can afford it buy it now,you don't wanna be biting your fingers if BTC hit $1200 tomorrow

Not gonna happen, mate. At least that is something I am sure of.

I am waiting a few more days to get a clearer picture. Though the voice at the back of my head keeps saying its over for now.

A small stop buy order at the right level should solve this issue for him....Given he is on an exchange that supports that.

If you are convinced about bitcoin then go ahead and buy some. Just don't put in any money that you absolutely can't afford to lose. For all i know bitcoin might be 1200 or 200$ tomorrow Undecided

+1. And I thought you are a Permabull. In Bitcoin everything is possible, from single digits to 3000. Never risk more than you are willing to lose, and the only person who can decide how much this is, is the OP !
