I wonder: Would a Trezor survive liquid nitrogen?

Reason I'm asking is I think I might get my head frozen after all when I die. Tattoo "I have bitcoins", include a couple of Trezors in my mouth with a good PIN, and in a thousand years when Bitcoin is worth infinite amounts it would be a reasonable reward to dethaw my brain and put me on a top of line body.

Hm....

that is the future! everyone dying will put a btc address on his grave stone and pretend to have the keys "in his brain". future grave robbers will have fun trying to figure out who was genuine.

also: imagine the plebs trying this with IOTA. or Bcash/BSV Cheesy

Too late for the advice, but:

*set a scaled take profit on the short and leave it.
* let the long run until December 2019, and potentially longer

Indeed, my daring half would have just LOVED to leave the long running until kingdom come (well, until end of year or earlier actually). A small FOMO condition. The short was too small to scale the profit taking: one order would have been fine - besides, I like to close shorts as soon as I can because they make me uncomfortable. But the long... the long...

Thanks for your advice, Hairy. The conservative choice has less glitter but more peace of mind while I'm out. But the entry point on that long was sweet indeed... Cheesy

I'm pleased to see so many fellow observers acknowledged my checkout post. Thanks guys!

At the moment I'm in a bit of a dilemma. I've got a double position as I often do. A long, in the green, and a much smaller short (size is about 20% of the long), in the red. Overall at the moment I'm profiting about 1.5% of the play stash. The dilemma is: close everything or just let it run?

I'm not afraid of the long being liquidated: that would take an apocalypse (under 4k as it is now). The short is so underleveraged it can't actually be liquidated. I've set stops to close the short in profit if it dips, even a slight correction would do. So the long is safe even if she goes lower than my conservative estimate, since closing the short would boost my margin. If she goes UP UP UP, I will keep profiting with a slight 20% handicap because of the short. The issue is I don't want to miss out on a potential 12k+ run if it happens in these 3-4 weeks.

What would you do if you were in my shoes?

Thanks JSRAW! I'll do my best to come back with nice stories and bits - food porn in Mic's honor, maybe. And you, please, mind your digests. We've got to the point where we depend on them... Grin

Thanks fillippone, I just needed your nudge. Everything closed, 1.46% profit on the play stash. Could've been worse. Cool

Thanks bitcoin, be a good girl. Or be a bad girl. We still love you either way, and you know it!

You're right fillippone, that's the rational thing to do.
Pity because I'm decently set up if a big run up happens.
I've left similar situations open for one month already a couple of times, and it paid out both times.
But this time... uh, I must be getting old and wimpy.
Long already closed, waiting for a $2 dip to trigger closing the short too.

EDIT Reminder to self: observing 11672.

Since you are going on holiday for a considerable amount of trading time, I can't see any advantage having positions open.

1. You are a sitting duck. You are going to leave orders that are waiting to be triggered at the worst possible time.
2. You are on holiday. Open positions force you to constantly check market. And constantly checking market sadly worsens the enjoyment of such holidays.

Close everything.

It is unthinkable that a right wing extremist would actually do the sort of thing they threaten to do every day. Absolutely impossible that these guys would ever do exactly what they say they are going to do.

There is nothing "extremist" in advocating for law and order. I have no intention of committing any violent acts. The evil cult of Judaism has been expelled from 100+ different countries multiple times, something like 300+ in total. It's perfectly normal to advocate for the govt to do it's job and outlaw and expel evil criminal cults whether they be the Charles Manson cult or the evil cult of Judaism.

When the Italian mafia was shooting people in the street, nobody claimed it was "racist" to arrest them. The evil cult of Judaism however is committing 100x the amount of crimes they did ranging from global financial fraud, human trafficking, human organ trafficking, war crimes, murder, false flag terrorism, treason, sedition. The list goes on forever. The evil cult of Judaism is the largest crime syndicate the world has ever seen. The word "Jew" is basically synonymous with piece of shit.

The kikes are still heavily manipulating silver down. It's a complete joke it's not at least $23 already, let alone even $20. At some point soon it's going to gap up hard no matter how much they try to manipulate it down. Then you have the fact gold is at record highs in just about all currencies...except the US dollar. The dollar is overvalued at least 30% and needs to be devalued ASAP. And the scammers in China have the Yuan massively undervalued to facilitate trade monopolies.
