Don't kid yourself.
That panic selling sweet spot is much lower down than this.
Mat! Long time no see!
Are you feeling better these days? more importantly sleeping better?
*edit*
I guess I should at least address the original post since I'm crapping in his thread trying to catch up with an old friend (not really, but I do value MatTheCat's contributions)
So my "The philosophy of buying when others panic sell..." is that I am a crap trader.
The only way I have been able to consistently increase my btc position has been to simply set a tranche on either side of the price and hope for volatility, (last couple days been very nice I just make sure that I have my tranches set deep enough to account for whatever occurance. For example lower tranche ends at 288, upper tranche to 4000. worst case outcome is I get cleaned out on either side, If I get cleaned out on the top side, oh well, I cash out a tidy sum. I get cleaned out on the low side, now I've got a ton of coins, but they might be worthless. Oh well, it's been fun, just wait and see if it recovers (lesson learned from that crash after the 32 spike.)
