Money management. Perhaps the most important element of trading is capital preservation. Before undertaking to trade Bitcoin, consider how much money you can afford to lose before your current lifestyle becomes unaffordable. This will allow you to better determine your “pain point,” or how much wealth you’re willing to risk losing. Never commit any more than this sum to your trading account. Of this trading capital, never risk more than 5% on a single trade. Neophyte traders should not risk more than 1%. If your trading is successful, the size of each trade in absolute terms steadily grows as your trading account swells. If unsuccessful, at least losses are kept to a minimum, which allows time to adjust your trading plan.
Summing up I think, investing low capital is the main point in this big statement. We all know better about ourselves that what is the condition, how can we be disturbed, what is financial status now.

So keeping all these things, better strategy as said here is to invest as much money as you can easily lose in field. Don’t be greedy, make yourself satisfied.

Trading is simple as long as you do not mess with it in the wrong way or with your emotions. That's the vital point to keep in mind while applying your own strategies.

Tell me about your trading strategy.


Well to be honest there is no really strategy but whatever I do is logical one. I will always buy mass amount of coins in those hard forked periods and bad news about the coins. In this period coins are at lowest and it's better to buy on mass level because later your profits are also like that only. That's kind of swing trading but I will do it on major scale.

How much coins do you use when you trade? All of them?

Only those which are trusted since one year or something like that because they assure us returns. Bitcoin will be always first choice for me and followed by ethereum, iota, nvo and ripple. I will always have watch on these coins as they have higher chance so of hiking.

Obviously that would depend on whether I'm getting the profits or not. Unless and until I'm not in loss I will keep them forever and will try to get as much profits as I could.

There are 3 kinds of holding a coin:
- Short-term: usually is day or week , this kind for earning income to pay for daily needs or debts . This is the surfing way and it needs big capital.
- Average-term: usually 3 months to 5 months , this kind of hold will make a big profit for you if you choose the right one.
- Long-term:  Usually for pre-ICO and the time is about a year, this kind will make for you a huge profit.

I don't suggest that you trade with all of your coins. It's best to hold a portion for a long term investment. I suggest holding 50% or more and trading the rest. One of the main reasons for this is that you can't fully trust exchanges. They could get hacked or just steal your money. It's happened before with MtGox, Cryptsy, and others. Also with trading you have potential to make more profit but you could also lose out on big gains if you sell and the price keeps going up. So there's no guarantee that you will make money trading.

Holding 50% of all your coins is a good idea and you have the good chance of experiencing good profit for the future.   Selling at earlier time isn't a wise decisions, because the price still at lower value which actually can make your funds not growing as an investments. The trading strategy might be so challenging by the time trading it directly and sell it in the right value at an specific time frame.

The golden rule of traders, buy in low and sell at high to get a good profit. And sometimes I set a target price to sell so the return of income is much faster then just buy back again.
I didn't trade them all, just the one's that pumped.
And of course don't panic when everyone does.

It is really depends from the capitalization upon of your chooses. Whether you are starting with the 5%-10% to use and to process with your trading. Learn to have a time for updating the news so that it can really help. Upon on your strategy.

I'm usually set my own target about 10% from my initial deposit and I just look for a new and great potential token based on community feedback.
Honestly trading in altcoin is more riskier than Wall Street trading but the profit is better when you able to trade in a perfect time !

You should invest the amount what you think you can afford to lose because in case you really to lose that amount it will not hurt you deep inside because it will meant nothing from the start because you already declared that amount is a lose but if unexpectedly you are earning in that amount then you should slowly to put up your invested capital until you mastered your trading experience.

When i'm holding coins, actually i gonna make a big research about them: like "what is the project about?" , "which team manage that project "," what is it rank", " how big the marketcap is?", "What happen to that coin?", "Why they are down or up?". When you got all these informations, you can make a good decision to choose which one for holding, which one for selling.

How do you find the answers to these questions? You're probably just guessing. It is very important to do research on altcoin is more important to know how to research.

I do not trade all my coins, because it is so hard to lose everything you spend the life time on collecting it because some were just pump and suddenly dump, I suggest you if you trade your coin to another coin better have it in just few percent so it will not let you regret in times when you lose it.
This is a very good strategy. I think everyone needs to play a safe game and this is the best way of playing a safe game. The trading strategy which I used to follow is this that I used to invest a small amount of my income in the start, and then keep on adding small amount of money in my investment from time to time.

One thing that is indeed the way to do when trading is to see the conditions of trading cryptocurrency that I will do, if it has decreased or a little demand then it is certain it is time to make sales at a high price. And if when the number of cryptocurrency is many then it is certain it is a place to make a purchase by bargain at a low price. So, trading is something quite easy if you understand all the aspects that exist and the most important thing to be able to gain a lot of advantage is self-control.


In theory, of course that's how you trade. But in practice, it's impossible to foresee or predict the conditions of demand, especially when it comes to short term trading, never mind day trading where minutes are the average timeframes.

The only prediction I have been consistently "accurate" enough with is with Bitcoin, and even that's just the pattern observeable until now. Demand is a funny thing really. I've sold at prices above market when demand seems to be peaking, but then it can easily drop off, as if afraid to touch the price I've set sell orders at.

the simplest strategy for beginners is where you place your purchase as the main thing. because with the purchase you can calculate the income. For example, you buy at a cheap price you can already get a profit when the price is high, you do not have to sell the whole coin at a high price. but you sell according to your needs and the rest you can play the remaining coins for future trading or you use for savings and investment.

For trading, as opposed to accumulating to hodl, my strategy is to keep it very simple. When there is a selloff buy pullbacks at halfway back of the last move up and scale out of the position as it moves up again. After a consolidation buy/sell the breakout for a quick scalp trade.

I only use a very small part of my coins and trade on margin.

It isn't time dependent as the market will take as much time as it wants to get where it does. Set a profit objective and a stop loss and let the market exit the trade for you.

The mantra in trading is buy low and sell high so if I see a coin have an incoming update, I do a technical analysis on that coin and determine some key prices like support and resistance. If the coin reach support and the indicators suggest a buy then I would buy it and set a stop loss. It is important to have a stop loss so that in case there is a dump to that coin then you already set an amount of how much you are willing to lose.

I subscribe to some group that give some free trading signals. I know that it is not a wise thing to do because many of them are scam but there are some legit signals too. I don't often follow their signals but since they are the one who are mostly updated to the latest developments then I would check it first if they have not pump it before giving the signals to its members.

Your trading style depend your mindset & skill. For newbie, I believe they will take day trading as their style, using 30 - 60% from their coins to make profit with medium time period but for expert usually using 50 - 80% from coins with long time period. Because I don't have much time, I decide to use expert style ( not because I'm expert ), to not wasting my time in front of pc. Buy/ sell/ hold depend your target and stop loss, when reach the area just take action, for me 2 - 3 month is enough. Have a nice day.

Trading strategy is nothing but "in what way you are personally comfortable whilevdoingbthevtrades". For example, bob might just be very easy putting his stakes on xyz coin because he thinks it might pump in the near future and then he can trade it for good value. But when you see the coin you say you have different perspective regarding the same coin and it may not boost like that. So there is confusion and that's all because of your personal views.


So first strategy would be your views, your study regarding the coins.


There should be collection of coins but never go all nerdy about it and buy any coin that you just think will be great one. Just have normal collection of few coins and hold them for long. If you think they are getting more on negative side of the graph then you can sell.

When I was trading Bitcoins on a regular basis, I would only trade in small amounts. I would place several small but orders spaced apart so I didn't have to worry so much about catching the bottom of a dip. Same for sell orders. I would place several sell orders spaced apart also.

This strategy is a little like dollar cost averaging where you buy a little bit at a schedule time so you got some at a lower price and some at a higher price. My strategy differs in that the buys at not at a set time but at set prices always leaving myself leverage to keep buying as the price drops.

After day trading, which wasn't successful for me I started with buying and holding altcoins. Which coin I will buy depends from my research here, I like to have altcoins that have future. Which coins have future are the ones that offer some innovation. IOTA, waves, ripple, digibyte, game credits are just some of the altcoins that I currently hold cause I expect their price will rise a lot. I'm just buying and I will sell when I get to the profit I wish, for one year or two its not matter.
Recently I made a mistake cause I sold my litecoin stash, and I could buy again in dip but I lost opportunity to buy cheap litecoins before price jumped up.

There is no hard and fast rule for trading. It all depends on the situation and your risk taking capability. So no one would be able to tell you about holding time of a coin or what amount to put in to trading. because, that differs from case to case. You need to track the market very well before you can enter trading activities because if you don't track the market well, you will probably end up making huge losses.

Secondly, you need to have patience while trading. Don't get tempted while trading with a particular pair. If you see that you are making loss at a particular trade, and there is no hope for the future, you have to take that loss and exit from that position. So, you need to have the power to face the loss sometime.

It depends on your starting capital. My strategy is I just do some short term trade. Specially when uptrend and sell the coins if I already have 10%-20% profits. Just keep reading specially on the news on every coins. That could help to you, good luck !
Well honestly i am not holding a coin which is only good for short term those altcoin are new releases coin that possible good movement in the short term but in the end they are turn into cheap coin..
For me if you really wanted to make a good profit better to choose an altcoin that actually already have a good rankings in coin marketcap that you can hold for a long time it is good if you are holding a good amount of top 20 altcoin like ethereum litecoin zcash or mononero those are good choice to hold for a long time and make profit if you seen the price increased. .
News are also can help so better to check about the updated news for that altcoin .

Nobody is going to reveal his tricks, but there are no "specific" strategies for doing trading, you need to make your own prefered way of trading. Maybe if you copy another trader you are not going to be able to manage the funds like he is doing, or maybe you will make a little mistake and that will make you loss all your funds, that is why everybody needs some knowledge before doing cryptotrading, it is not easy, it requires a lot of practice before.

It varies from the project/coin because there are some coins that have a long term roadmap and there are some opportunities to hold them.

For example Iconomi is a long term even though I have sold a large part of them and got a good profit since I participated in early stages.

I'm temporarily out of the game but I used to dive into a variety of alts in an attempt to increase the value of my crypto in BTC. This sometimes worked pretty well but was always too late to transfer at least a significant portion of my alts into BTC. This way of trading was not good. Nevertheless, I got out some weeks ago with a good amount of profit, but will re-assess my tactics anyway before getting back into crypto.

Buy and hold a strong basket anchored by Bitcoin, then some solid alts, LTC, ETH, add some outliers that you can trade in an out of. Once you get to a large enough amount where pulling out 3-4% a year will give you a good life you are set.

Save a huge capital, Buy a mass trending or in demand coin--has a lot of buy and sell orders and then get out quickly--sell after a 10 or more sat increase

How much coins do you use when you trade? All of them?

Not all of them, i often set a fixed capital and use them all to get my roi first after that i just do what i want

How much time is it appropriate to hold a coin?

It depends on various factors but most of the time i don't hold that long particularly on coins that pumps so fast
bottomlline, some questions you've asked depends on the currenct market trend so you might wanna research about it first

It is really silly to trade all of your coins at once, because your decision might be wrong, so you would lose everything you have. It is much better to split your coins and trade different currencies(coins) or just to trading bitcoins but using 25% or whatever amount of money. It looks like you're new to trading so you should be really careful about trading - it is really easy to lose money, but much harder to earn it from trading.

Research research, research. HODL and buy on this Dip! Learn yourselves. This should not induce FUD. Regulation is good for business, things will just be less like the wild west, and be more organized. Don't overact typical situation, try to be calm!
Of course, each person had to evaluate according to the Situation that is still preserved. We see that all exchanges are crypto-currency for the last 12:00. Send us an indicator to Verkh. I hope for positive growth in this regard. Of course, if you evaluate the reasons, it is possible, not only because of the Chinese, it all happened. Perhaps this is a special collapse of the crypto currency, so that large whales purchase a good amount of Bitcoin.

I wouldn't use any news trading strategy that I see many do. You should focus on classic technical analysis for long-term gains. Look at technical indicators to get better odds than the market. Such as trading volume, momentum direction, Elliot waves, relative strength indicators and more. What works for me will not automatically work for you. That depends on your psychology and trading style. The guideline is to not trade with more than 5% of your total portfolio and the shorter time frame, the harder it is to trade. I would recommend starting with 4h in the crypto market.

Let me know if you need help with getting started.

my trading strategy is buy and hodl. i don't like buy and sell for little profit. buy and forget is best trading strategy for crypto.

My trading strategy is to inverse in the king. I.e bitcoin. When the price is goes to low Value so I do trading and add more bitcoin in the account. Then I will forget about the holding bitcoin. Save for some time. When I saw the price reaches the moon, I will do the alter trade and make many more dollars.

There are many ways you can get signals to buy and sell.
Keep updated on news so you have a purchase signal.
Just like in the past days if you were updated on the news. You are aware that the Bitcoins will fall. This is because of China's stoppage of Exchanger operations in their country. And here's panic selling starts to stop the downfall of your bitcoins. And of course you will wait for the most dip and then buy bitcoins and if you've bought the past. I greet you because you earn.

Tell me about your trading strategy.

How much coins do you use when you trade? All of them?

How much time is it appropriate to hold a coin?

Thx
Theres no fix answer on this kind of question knowing that traders do have different decisions when it comes on trading and some circumstances that might be met along the way specially when there are opportunities some may go all in some may do hedging.In my own trading style I'm an active day trader which I don't usually end up a day without any profits or any hanging trades while I do sleep.

I use a trend following strategy for short-term trade's and follow Price action strategy too. I use only 20% of capital in each trade with a stop loss of 2% to 5% of capital depending on the trading strategy. Even Moving average crossover works fine for me. I use 2 simple moving average 8 and 21, and rsi indicator along with it. Enter buy position when 8 moving average crosses above 21 and rsi is crossing above 60 or maintaining above 60 and exit if rsi takes resistance near 60 levels again.Similarly, sell position takes place when 8 moving average crosses below 21 and rsi is crossing below 40 or maintaining below 40 and exit when rsi takes support on 40 levels. I hold positions till either I get my calculated target hit something near 10% to 15% or my system tells me to exit.

hope it helps.  Smiley

i only use 50% of my bitcoin for trading Bitcoin pair Altcoin, and usually I use to buy 5 different altcoin
When trading altcoin i'm not based on how much time, but my profit and loss target (in trading altcoin I have price restrictions down, and when that happens I immediately sell it to reduce losses)

How much coins do you use when you trade? All of them?
it depends on how much i own and how much i am willing to risk.
for example back when i owned <0.01BTC obviously i would have invested all. but if you have bigger amounts it is going to be highly risky to invest all you have.

just set aside some funds that you feel ok with and start trading with that.

it depends on the coin.
bitcoin is the long term investment of mine that i have been holding for 3+ years and i will continue to hold it. meanwhile i have also done some trading too.
altcoins are usually different. they get pumped and the pumps take from a day to a week and you need to find the end of the pump on a case by case basis and sell before it has ended.

at first I was trading with the capital I was able to lose, then I searched for more information and news about coin, so I did not lose any updates on the information. I hold a coin only if the price is throwing away, and I will sell when I feel the profit.  Wink

As long as you can buy the coin then have it, buy it especially now that it decreases it is time to buy.
It is recommended to hold on your coin for long if you really want a big profit from your invested money.
In terms of trading, better lessen your risk to it like lessen your percent on putting your money into some coins.

Buy and buy if the price is low and sell it if the price is high that is my trading strategy and it is like HODL. I also do HODL because we can earn big amount of money by doing that strategy.

No, I do not trade all of my bitcoins, only a part of it. It is important to have back up funds. In my case, I can only afford to risk 20% of my funds. Any thing larger than that is too much for me.

I do not base it on how long I am holding my coins, but how much I already gained.

You have to follow a lot of news sites, and most importantly, you have to get the first news, the later news will hurt more than the wounds.
