Complete n00b question. I have not bought or traded on a Exchange before. Is it true in me thinking,

Join exchange
Deposit money
Buy coins


you'll also have to verify your identity.

which exchange are you going for?

Kraken

Not as big (and therefore liquid) as the big three....   But I have not heard horror stories - google 'kraken problems' and see what comes up.

Always wise to research before you trust money to an exchange.

If only it were quite so easy!

Basically that is it, yes - but watch out for delays, lack of confirmation and difficulty in getting money out.

Also any exchange can (potentially) lock up your money or even disappear, so try to keep large amounts 'off-exchange' in a wallet, or at least spread it around a couple of exchanges.

No one will go to prison for stealing your money or losing it, remember that.

Stamp is pretty good and well run and you can get money out reasonably easily (in Europe) Gox is hell, BTC-e is OK.

Make your choice, you will pretty much need to stay there - everyone has a 'home' exchange.

1. Buy
2. Store in a cold wallet
3. Carry on with living your life and forget about it for a year.

Always loved the song, but like a stupid idiot, never quite followed the most excellent advice.

I can't resist checking in here, updating my spreadsheets and wondering if rpietila is a sage or a nutter... (or both)

Nooooooo, where the hell are you all going!!!!!!!!!!!!! Please stay
This thread is making me happy and sad at the same time.

I will be buying my first real coins next week and would like to see what else you have to say

Ah a new victim!   If you buy in, you will waste hours on this forum looking for solace and people who tell you something you want to hear.

Then a year later - you will do the maths on the hours you have spent watching and wondering and possibly work out if it paid you enough for your time.

Best advice to make that equation a positive one is this:

1. Buy
2. Store in a cold wallet
3. Carry on with living your life and forget about it for a year.


Seriously!

good idea but if I'm honest the biggest utility I've got from bitcoin  is watching charts and chatting on here. I lost thousands of dollars with the drop from four figures back down to three but it was so fucking entertaining!

things you own end up owning you
what would I do if I wanted to buy huge amount of Bitcoin:

buy few hundred bitcoins, excute a market order sell to push the price a bit down, now sure the ask is still above you, so what you need to do is make your bot sell 0.01 Bitcoin constantly to give the impression that price is low and to trick other bots, low sell orders will start building, keep doing all above until the sell orders meet your expectations and than execute a buy market order.

what would I do if I wanted to sell huge amount of Bitcoin:

I would buy few hundred Bitcoins first to give an impression of price going up, than excute one sell market order and right after it a buy sell order of 0.01 to trick people/bots about the last price and repeat

and this is what was happening the last couple of days both when buying and selling....


go here and watch the last trades on the right, this is what is happening, now we are at the selling phase, before we were at the buying phase.

what are you talking about? no-one is leaving?

What are you thinking about for bids? For me, you'll be lucky if 650 gets filled then as we head towards 900 you'll have more and more chances of buying.

Sorry Sir, I will keep my mouth shut. I would be good news if I could buy a few coins for 650 or so

Nope please post. The more the merrier imho
