My orders sitting around 8420 (because reasons) and didn't get filled yet.
200DMA @8441
I hope you are ready to short shiteboy. Don’t let us down now.
Whiteboy420's BTC shorting orders should have filled. That is if he is actually putting his money where his BIG mouth is, as many WO regulars would likely doubt to be the case, since most troll/shill nocoiner bitcoin naysayers fail/refuse to put their money where their frequently too BIG for their britches mouthes are.
Disclosure: I have a short open too, as a hedge. At the moment it's about half the size of my still painful long, and with patient scalping and rebuilding it has already paid me about 25% of the suffering. I will let it go if I can close it in the green (which is still totally possible), or when my stop hits - that is, when the long position's loss gets about half of what it is.
There are attitude differences between shills/nocoiners and me, though.
- I just do it when/because I feel I need to, so that I can reduce losses incurred or improve profits made on the long side. I am always fundamentally long, because I think it's just a matter of time until it eventually pays out.
- I am wary of shorting the corn. It's bad karma, and her cruelty to shorters can be wanton. Well, to longers too occasionally.
- I feel a tingle of shame when I reveal my short positions here
It seems to me that in the past couple of years that you have been discussing your trading strategy here, you have developed a kind of niche for yourself and also an information sharing angle that complements other BTC strategies in this thread.
I have come to consider my own strategy of a series of longs, and closing of longs, so I don't employ shorts in part because I am nervous about employing such, even if your posts have described a variety of ways in which shorts can be employed in BTC in order to possibly improve upon a long only strategy.
TLDR: I agree that your way of posting about BTC shorting seems to be quite different from the troll/shills, who seem to be suggesting balls to the wall strategies rather than hedging strategies.
[edited out]
as long your #HODL positions are larger than your short positions I would say it's just greed and not blasphemy.
Maybe you are joking, but fact of the matter is that greed and hedging are two different things.
