Crypto/Alt Coin Bloodbath... LiteCoin & Bitcoin are like " Meh, we are Good Bro" -- LTC & BTC are UP while others are all down. Remain calm. Look for Trends in the Market. Learn from these moments. My thoughts w Charts & Facts. Not Emotion.

I was offline all day, just getting in. I checked my charts and exchanges and see all the RED bleeding out, which happens as we know.

The key is to remain calm, use your charts and look for trends and answers.

Today's answers remain in front of us, in the $BTC and $LTC markets and coding and use cases.


Leave your emotions out of this. Check your charts. We are at or near ALL TIME HIGHS for both Bitcoin and LiteCoin.

These are facts. Emotions do not change FACTS. You're a Crypto lover and early adopter. Let's be rational here.


Here's the last 24 hours on Bitcoin which is up around 3% while 90% of the Alt Coins are down or bleeding out:


I enjoy being able to remain calm in the midst of unpleasant happenings. It clouds your judgement and focus if you are not.

I am diversified also, and that does help.

It also is partly my character makeup and nearly 30 years in Real Estate and Business... and also dealing with governments for years in my policy work and activism.



1 day LITECOIN chart on Polo! Look at those ski slopes!!!! Woooo hoooooo!!! LTC is up around 10% while the rest of the Alts market bleeds.


I regularly interact with LiteCoin founder Charlie Lee on the Twitter: He is super active on there! I started my post tonite, then went to see his page and honestly, I was right on point with what he was saying too:


1 Month Chart: Bitcoin. She goes up. She goes down. It's the Crypto Life folks, but look at the TREND: She goes up all the time! We will be OK.


All Time / Lifetime LTC chart: She goes up. She goes down... again, Life in Crypto. This is the market and life and again, look at the tail end - we are UP. All time highs territory again right now.


I just love LiteCoin and am always rooting for it! It means so much, to so many - for so many reasons!!


Let's remain calm, use reason, charts, numbers and trends.



Pay attention to facts affecting news but avoid the rash decisions , FUD and FOMO.


It WILL cost you.


( Fear/Uncertainty/Doubt and Fear of Missing Out.)

= Bad. Learn as you go to DISCERN these things. It comes with time, education and experience.



Thanks for reading, have a nice day.

I'd bet all my bitcoins it was a group of whales, pushed a bunch of stuff up, waited for buys to get in, and cashed in the profits....

It could be.

I always remind people newer than me, this space is still really ....new - if you think about it and as such, the markets can be moved by a few things or people with some leverage.

Move = Manipulate.

The words can be the same but the 2nd one holds powerful reminders.

Best advice I ever found about trading: "Buy into weakness and sell into strength. Don't just move with the market."

That's really valuable man!

I am loving having you on here to chat with and trade info and jokes with.

(:

I would never trade my info as I'm a sharer. :P Oh if you didn't know they were doing some post about which steemian you would switch with for a day. I picked you so I could ride a moose and shit.

LOL.

Funny.

I wondered if trade was the right word, that is why it was italicized as you picked up on. Be well my friend!!

My igloo and moose out back are just waitin for you to come and

Take a Rip eh Buddy??

Remain calm, remember the fundamentals of the coin you invested in. It did have good fundamentals right? Try to research and get a good feel for what a coin is all about.

I like

  • Dash
  • Litecoin
  • Ripple
  • Monero
  • Steem (of course)
  • Ethereum

I also have Bitshares, NXT, and Augur but i'm less certain about them.
Tentatively into Viva too.

This is such a great reply.

I UV it so it will appear close to the top of the replies, I want people to learn and read from great comments,

TY very much for taking time for us here tonite to help teach us and speak truth.

I appreciate it.

THANK YOU.

It's not as bad as it looks... first of all, we're comparing all these alt coins to a rising BTC (not USD) so ANYthing not keeping up with BTC will have the appearance of going backwards. Besides, every alt coin went to the moon yesterday... and now are just falling back to where they were a couple of days ago.

But then, I'm not a short term trader...

I feel similar... I hope lots of people read your comments my man!

TY for the great comments today, and always on Steemit for people.

You are a blessing my brother! Thanks for taking time for me and my post and commenters today!

I was moving some stuff around yesterday and today... basically getting my VIVA wallet situated by transferring in some remaining microbits I have scattered around. Poloniex had me spooked enough today, that I even transferred out all my BTC and turned it into VIVA VIP (my retirement pool).

All I have left on Poloniex now is LTC. I'm betting the SegWit activation countdown - right at 15 hours to go as of this comment - is going to jack up the price as the time dwindles. Fingers crossed I'm reading the tea leaves correctly...

It is very good advice here tonite by you Deb.

I have not sold 1 satoshi of my LTC yet, ever.

I shared with you awhile back...... I cancelled my long term sells even I had sitting with large walls of profit set up.

Thanks! I've not got that much invested, so it's a minimal risk if I hodl. Mostly, I'm testing out my ability to semi-accurately read the market. So far so good... in the meantime, I'll be monitoring the moves. I think it's going to get interesting.

Thank you for sharing @barrydutton

You are welcome. I hope this helps some people.

And frankly I hope many others smarter than me continue to comment on this post so we can all learn and prosper together.

Yes, I agree with you.
Prosperity is the best.

Prosper in every area of our lives. Not just $$.

I am overviewing what Jesus says to us

(:

There are only 3 coins I'm interested in: Bitcoin, litecoin, and steem.

Try to hold as much as possible.

There ya go folks!

Calm like @shayne!

Thanks for this. Still new to the cryptocurrency scene and this sort of advice is very valuable. I'm considering trying to mine some Litecoin on my Mac - do you think that's advisable?

No.

IDK as much about mining as some people but the power needed to mine effectively a coin like that, with the volume and back history as long as it has means you will not have enough power to mine it IMHO.

Great question by you.

Mine another coin in the B tier and or, find out what you need, to mine what you want.

No

resteemed & liked! Thank You!
