I would split between them two as they are both in they're dips for some time and likely to regain their power in a short while. I am currently holding bags in both the coins and that doesn't worry me a bit... They're both solid. Actually I like ltc even more than eth somehow. It is silver as they say...

It's harder to make short term prediction lately. Market is still to shaky to investing big money. I would personally wait till the things are settled a bit before going in.
will never go for short because it only give you a little profit but big risk to lost, buy coin in their dip and wait for long term. after you feel the experience you will know the different between short and long term
Why go short? I think the shorting opportunities are over for the moment.
All of them appear to move the same currently, so if you really want to, any of them should be fine.
In most of cases I would agree with you. I previously made successful long-term investments but my attempts to do trading made me lose 20% of initial investment. Yet I believe that sometimes it is possible to get up to 2x profit short-term. eth, ltc and btc are not good for that, though. I would recommend buying dogecoin, I'm sure it will be worth twice as much soon. Another coin to buy short-term is probably monero, it is likely to give fast 30% profit.

Not ETH at the moment because there is a fork coming up, and I think price will drop. For short trading you don't need a big coin though. Maybe have a look at something smaller, that's where the big opportunity for high returns is.
yes hardfork ethereum will do, somehow the result nanri, hopefully the price will rise 2-fold from the current price , by the way when fork ethererum will start ?

Hoping to snag some more before the weekend ends. It appears prices have stabilized, but which is the best bet for a two or three week position? This is a small buy.
BTC for short term, i think
BTC is generally the least volatile of cryptos so for for short term hold period and trading, ETH or LTC
will have bigger percent moves.
will have bigger percent moves.
you should buy ETH BTC and BCC now they will go up in price once hard fork will get over. if you want to make generous profit then these are the best options

If you are planning on purchasing a coin that will go up in value in a short amount of time then I would suggest that you purchase Bitcoin. You might have a chance of making some money by trading Ethereum with another coin as well though with the rapid movements of Bitcoin the prices would make you money much faster than you would think.The price of Bitcoin might not go up immediately though if you lose your investment by trading it out then you’re done for. If you keep your Bitcoin then the price goes up later then you would make money either way.
In 2-3 weeks I think some of the other Chinese exchanges said they are going to be stopping business for the Chinese citizens. I don't know what effect this will have on prices, but I'm thinking it will cause another dip. Probably not as big as when the original announcements were made, but a dip all the same. Also, if you watch the news for these three coins right now any news coming out is having effects on prices so you might be able to catch something there.
Just realized i misrepresented my question. Which will have a higher x/BTC ratio in a few weeks- ETH or LTC?
surpass ltc, its better to hold eth together with your btc investment.
Of course LTC because its previosly growth
I think from now until DevCon3 ETH will have an opportunity to go back on a bull run. A long awaited hard fork is in the pipeline and more and more news will be coming out about the details.
