Nice exit strategies!

Two important points that you made I think are worth repeating:

  • Don't leverage. Invest what you can afford to lose
  • Have a long term horizon
    The first one is important if you want to avoid bankruptcies. The second basically means you are a buy-and-hold investor. Short term trading is either arbitrage or gambling. (and Arbitrage = zero risk, in other words, a guaranteed gain. A lot of people think they are in an arbitrage situation but they are not)

Great strategy. I was thinking of buying and selling some btc, eth and xmr as well. But I don't have a concrete strategy in place. I just know on top of my head that the price within a month is falling, then I would buy. If it shoots up, I would sell. Clearly I am not really a trader and rely only on my gut feeling. Thanks for sharing your strategy. I now have a clear view on how would I do it if I proceed with my plan. Of course I only have micro account on those currencies but it's a good learning experience.

You seem to #love all these #tags sprinkled #randomly within your #post..

Wow, fantastic read. This completely opened my eyes to the possibilities of crypto currencies. As the stock market has been bad to me lately, I am going to do more research on crypto currency investments. thank you

Great post, even if it's not the best strategy.

Did you invest in STEEM though when it crossed $10M? I see that you don't have any added STEEM power to your account.

As I mentioned, I dont like that STEEM Power is locked 2 years. In this time I cannot sell.

Great article, thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Thanks for sharing.

That's a damn fine strategy! Yet another day I learned somthing on Steem

Yes, active trading is to nerve consuming and often external events like the DAO-Hack or other whale interests kill any technical analysis based trading.

Thanks for your interesting post!

Nice article. Nice to see I'm not the only one who thinks like this. The trustworthiness of the crypto is based on: A solid team, product, advisors, preferably VC investors, etc. Sell all cryptos that don't have this solid background. It's a waiste of money. An interesting website I found: https://www.coincheckup.com. It's a great site that gives in depth research on every tradable cryto in the market.
