Trading could be risky if you don't have much knowledge about it and no experience. The main rule is buy low and sell high but that is not always so easy.
Sometimes you can make wrong decision calculating when is the best moment to buy or sell and then you can lose the money.You have to watch the market and price all the time. Arbitrage trading could be especialy risky because you have to react very fast and sometimes you just don't have the time. More you invest, more you put at risk.

Some of the arbitrage trades are being done by bots that can react a lot faster than any human very soon most of the arbitrage opportunities are not going to be there for human traders anymore.

I think the majority of traders are usig now bot so that it can help save time and at the same , it is more convenient to buy/sell at the price that you want.

bot is very helpful to save our time. but to get the most I think the manual is the best way.
because we can freely determine any action that we will do. it makes us more rights in any outcome that we can.

You can not buy or sell bitcoins at your own preferred price levels by using trading bots because bots will do buy or sell by its own analysis and predictions based on its pre-programmed parameters.

That is the reason bots are not profitable for me in many occasions, they will buy/sell based on usual market fluctuations and I have concluded a sudden market raise or dump will get us trapped if we go trading with bots for all types of market fluctuations.

Thanks for the heads up, I have always thought that bots, especially those for sell, cannot be that good because if they were what was going to stop you to keep all those great profits for yourself.

Hello folks!

I'm thinking about starting to trade with Bitcoin, but I see people saying that It's risky & almost like gambling.

I think that I mis-understand the meaning of trading.

For me trading Is for EXAMPLE, buying Bitcoin when It's at 550$ and selling It when It's at 670$. This Isn't risky because If Its value doesn't Increase, you'll just have to keep It until It gets higher enough, Is this trading?

I would really appreciate If people clarified more! Thankx Wink

Yes you are right about trading buy while low price and sell while high price, but there are no people who give guarantee the price will going up after you have bought, yes you are right you can keep it until it gets higher enough, but it is mean you don't get any income and you must be ready waiting for long time that is why the people say trading is high risk activity.

This is indeed a trading because you do buy bitcoins on a particular low price then sell it on a high price. You could definitely say that thing that theres no risk when you do that kind of trading which is considered as long trading because you would just need to wait on a particular price point. The risk involve on trading bitcoin is on the time which bitcoins price would go too much lower on your buy price.

There is no way to eliminate risk even when using those strategies, for example what if it takes 10 years to reach your desired profit point, are you really going to wait that much time, and what about the devaluation the currencies of the world may suffer in the meantime, and that is just the tip of the iceberg concerning the risk of a long term strategy.

Bitcoin trading is you trade bitcoin for something like fiat or altcoins. Altcoin to fiat trading is risky because some altcoins today are scam or just a pump and dump scheme. Good altcoins like doge and ltc are much better altcoin to trade, not that big profit but you won't regret buying it. Fiat to btc trading is also risky because it is based on a real market and it's value drops and rise fast but not that big.

It's a fair explanation. Most of the altcoins are scams, few have been fairly distributed. Litecoin is an example of a good cryptocurrency, with a good distribution, but in my opinion the trading volume is too low to make significant profit.

Not just litecoins, there are many fairly distributed altcoins are being traded, the thing is we must choose after closely following them. Yes, usually trading is not viable to start immediately on the day one itself. We must prepare ourselves be closely watching few alt coins with their volume and trading levels. Otherwise we might get struck with scam alt coins.

Every day new altcoins were getting developed. So one needs to be very careful while selecting a particular altcoin for trading purpose. Only very few altcoins have been popular among the users. So need to choose wisely after a great examination of price movement, only then we can make good profit with trading.

They still are getting developed. If we check the ico list then you will be surprised how many project are getting developed and how many people are involved in these project which are very risky, good profit and good for bitcoin. Choosing the best one is not easy and needs lots of time and a large community.

It's really risky when you don't know what you are doing in trading but if you know what to do in daily basis then you can really make some good profit in short term of trading and the advantage of trading once the coins is not pumped up you can just hold them till the price will up again or re sell it much more cheaper than the original price.

If anybody interested what is trading i made Crypto-demo account connected to my main account with proportional copied trades. Just for interest and can answer question also. Welcome ))

Will it work from any meta trader platform or I need to download from that particular forex dealer ? Is there any risk involved having a meta trader with your log-on details like we have seen many people were simple hacked through skype conversations. I suspect any vulnerability similar to that anything.

Any expert confirms the reliability of this services will be more helpful for many aspiring traders here.

As mentioned by most users Bitcoin Trading is really a good way to earn profit periodically, but problem with this is the investment. To get a earning, then needs to have a huge investment to get a stable price, other than which the price is unpredictable which needs more time to grab a big profile.

if you trading bitcoinn
and bitcoin price always stable you can't profit
because you buy and sell this price is same, if you want profit bitcoin price not stable, always wave bitcoin price and you can get profit

If the price of bitcoin becomes stable, earning good profit is really a hard thing, but as I mentioned in the earlier quote even if fluctuation happens with small number of bitcoin or investment making stable earning is not possible. Huge number of bitcoin or investment is required.

It doesn't really matter if you're trading with just 1BTC or 1000BTC, it's not possible to reach a stable level of income consecutively.

However, major traders on Chinese exchange can even make profit at times there barely is any volatility.

The aspect of trading with zero fees is something that helps them in a major way as it allows them to move the market in their preferred direction.

You always have bots looking to constantly place orders above your own order. This is how you can gain profits easily when you're a market mover.

In that aspect, market movers operating on Chinese exchanges with zero trading fees are able to make profits basically all the time. The amount of profit however is never the same.

It is pretty much like that but there is more into trading. But the gist of it is you will predict in what direction the price will go. If it is going down, then you will short it. If it is going up then you go long. There are times when the chart says it will go up and you go long but then the price goes down, so you lose. Or if you predicted the price will go down, so you short, but it goes up. Those scenario always happen in bitcoin because bitcoin fluctuates a lot.

I think bitcoin trading is trading bitcoin with different pairs like Bitcoin to US dollar , Bitcoin to Euro or bitcoin to other altcoins. It is risky because we never predict the price and the probability that the price of bitcoin get lower the moment we bought it. In its pair, like for example we bought an altcoin and we did not realized that the altcoin we bought is a scamcoin, then the price go down next to worthless and now we are bagholding a worthless altcoin. In this scenario, our fund is lost due to the wrong decision we made in trading.

And the problem is even more severe ragarding altcoins. Unfortunately, some people don't know that most of them are scams, with a very bad distribution.
This allows a small group of people to be able to control the supply, and consequently control the cycles of pumps and dumps, making inexperienced users lose money.
