Yep. And if you bought a year ago you would be up 100%. Price on Sep 14 2017 was $3250. So yeah, invest how you want, its working for you. My investments have done well. December run up was crazy and there had to be some cooling off. Dont think that we wont see a downturn in stocks. Its coming and will be worse than the last.
 
I suspect anyone who bought a year ago at $3250 likely also bought at $9000 and $15000 and are very much in the red with this crypto gamble.
 
You are pretty much right, I even know a guy who made such a mistake. We contacted a few times via some message board, he was also a cloud miner and if I remember correctly he bought at 3250 expecting the prices to go even higher and little did he know. The rest is a story. the last time a heard from him he said that he was gonna quit mining and trading. Though I am still mining via cloud contract and the future is good according to cloud mining services review 2018 https://cloudminingpro.net/ I still fear that one day the same will happend to me.
 
just don't let greed take over. it's okay to dream a little, just remember to do a reality check every once in a while and not compromise financial security that took time to build ...
 
Just a little bump, it'd be interesting to go back an see comments and see how they worked out.

Value today is $5,548.

Lots of stuff is happening and causing the current crash. Huge fork between bch and bchsv. Self hashing attacks etc etc. Great time to watch, let the flames settle and buy.

Someone in here predicted $50K by the end of the year. Could still happen :x

Predicting this stuff is crazy. BTC will never be main stream with the shit thats going on today.

I just look at my percentages and make my profit. Don't really care about the price.
 
Great news, btc under $5K. Gets some while its on sale. Or if you can wait a bit and pick up some later when it hits $4K.

It’s so simple everyone is doing it. Why not make it 1000x

Because 1000x doesn't exist and shorting is very simple in theory. Timing is everything but I'm pretty sure you're just here to troll. If you'd like to have a conversation around making money in crypto I'm all for it.

It's the same concept I have with my PDT accounts however each account must have 25k at all times in it. Short up to 4x and win if you're timing is right.

If your timing is right. Yes that's the tricky part, the caveat that goes with all investing. Buy AAPL and win if your timing is right. Short GE and win if your timing is right.

Why didn't you short btc at $17K? The timing was more right back then. You post as though making money is child's play when you probably know better.

For some making money is child's play. If I knew about shorting when btc was 17k I'd have short it. If I knew about leverage as well I would have applied it.

Why are you trying to be so negative?
 
Let's face it, bitcoins were driven by the same kind of forces that have driven the housing market in the Bay Area into the stratosphere, expectations of continued increases in value.

Take that away and the value drops.

I don't rule out that something may spike the value of bitcoins again, but at this point each month of decline lowers that possibility.
 
Tax loss harvest for the coins and stocks overall for 2018.
What a year investors !!! Welcome to the new economy !!!

Easy to say what should be done after the fact.
Me not taking part in making hindsight calls doesn't mean my posts are negative.
