    Or you could use the money from the sale and buy slightly more coins and watch your coin balance grow.

        I think some of you that have been around a bit have got months of growth to support you during these red times. For someone such as my myself who has been in this for less than a month, "Black Monday Morning" followed by "Black Tuesday Night" has been particularly brutal. No, not selling anything off just yet (Why let go of money-makers? Why sell during a dip?). Some of us had to buy in a little higher to get in the game.....

        At Binance, I have around 25 favorites I like to keep track of. Don't own them all, but currently only 4 are in the green. I own one of these greenies and I picked it up yesterday. That leaves a lot of red.

        Everything else I own is slumping, even some of the ones I thought were slump-proof. Leading the pack is TRX (TRON) which should be up for the Stinker of the Month award. Eheh. I do have a few good positions that are still above the buy-in but man, it would be nice to have a greener rest of the week.....

              At least it feels like it’s leveled out. I think we’ll see it go up slowly throughout the day. Looking for it to get back over 15k

                  Tron pricing
                  12/12 $0.004424
                  1/10 $0.106663

                  Tron is up 2,411% on the month but you gave it the stinker of the month...

                  Sure, it was up 7,233% at one point and gave back a third. Most people only see the give back and for some reason forget all about the rise. Stocks do the same thing just not in these large swings in a matter of days/weeks. I've got a crypto account that was $10k then $80k now $40k. This shit is not for the faint of heart.

                    Buffet says crypto's are a bubble and will eventually end badly. Is he just too old to get it?

                      another company, hmny, now is hinting at an ICO... stock up 40%. I made 10x on them last year and now I'm back in for this silly hype.




                      kodak ran 200% on ICO talk so far lol

                        Nice day from OST up like 60% but I'm still fuming about ripple. I doubt the shit stock will ever hit $3 again

                          For the month January, yes it is my Stinker of the Month. I didn't get TRON for $.04 or $.05.

                          Right after I bought, it started slumping and it's future looks bleak. I think you're going to see sell-offs every time it nudges up a bit..... It's pretty dang smelly right now... Perhaps some sort of announcement can turn it around. It has phenomenal volumes so apparently a lot of people believe in it. Still, it's got a downward arrow and I wish I never had picked it up....

                              Have you ever invested in stocks? You're just getting involved in crypto. This is not like gambling where you stroll to the ticket window when UGA covered Monday night. Investments take time. Today is the 10th of January and you've already called it the stinker of the month. The entire crypto world is down for the year. The year is a grand total of 10 days. My goodness... RELAX

                              I bought a bunch of Ripple at $0.28. It went to $0.35, then down to $0.17, sat at $0.22 for what seemed to be forever, then $0.20 forever. Finally, it popped to $4 and is down to $2 and people have lost their minds. XRP is horrible, it's gone to shit, etc. Come on man.

                              My suggestion... Invest what you can. Buy the dips when you can and relax. Most people are not good enough to day trade this. Most people aren't good enough to slip into one coin then out to another. Find a few coins that you like and keep investing/buying the dips. Don't even worry about the price, just buy the dips. Pick your head up a year from now and see where you're at. I think Ripple is at least $5 when it gets to CB, so $2 looks good to me. I add a little whenever I can. If it goes to $1 that just means I can buy twice as much as when it was $2.

                                No, not kidding. From $.28 to $.10½ in 5 days.....at those volumes? Gotta be some kind of Crypto record....

                                  I'm in same boat as you Mac. I believe in Ripple and I think XRP will recover but it sure makes your stomach turn when you see your up $80k in two weeks and that value has been halved in maybe 5 days after reaching it's high.

                                    That's all very good advice and I do understand the logic. But I'm still disappointed in TRON, it has been my worst performer (in my short career at this).

                                    I have stocks. Ya know, as I ease into retirement I didn't want to become one of those guys who sit at the computer all day shuffling around stocks just so I can high-five the dog for a $20 score at the end of the day. If that's your thing, more power to ya. I have my loot in a managed account that kicks out about 12-15% annually. That's good enough for me.

                                    This is just a hobby right now but I've noticed I'm turning into a version of the above day-trader. I think what I will do is hold what I got and not touch anything for a solid month. I got the dicipline to do this - push away from the computer and not sweat the small stuff. Doesn't mean I won't check in every now and then....

                                      for the 8214329 time... January has been a rough month historically for crypto. Let the storm pass, don't panic.

                                        Btc was at 9k then dropped to 5700 in a couple of days then 2 weeks or a week later was over 13k so .28 to .10 in 5 days is nowhere near a record patience is the key

                                            People in China are forced to retire at 50

                                            China is the most populated country in the world

                                            That's alot of people with alot of time on their hands looking to make money through investments

                                            Asians LOVE to gamble and crypto fits that bill more so than stocks with the crazy swings

                                            The Chinese government is issuing decrees and mandates to slow down and ultimately phase out btc mining. What do you think those data towers or buildings are going to do? Shut down and call it a day? Fukk no, they're just goin to switch to mining another coin

                                            All of these coupled together means that there is most likely going to be a sht ton of action on these alt coins

                                            Get rdy for a roller coaster of a ride

                                              Someone check my math.

                                              9,000 to 5700 = 36.6% drop

                                              .28 to .10½ = 62.5% drop

                                                  Ven has been the most stable coin ive owned. Its also the coin I have the most invested in at this time. I constantly track it and its just stable.. when 90% of the market drops.. it really doesnt. It just hangs around.

                                                        Hey guys. I've been reading this thread this past few months and finally decided to get into this crypto trading business 2 weeks ago. Last week, I deposited $2,500 via GDAX, then transferred over to BINANCE to buy these alt coins and below is my portfolio:
                                                        - $800 into ETH
                                                        - $500 into ADA
                                                        - $500 into XRP
                                                        - $300 into NEO
                                                        - $200 into XVG
                                                        - $200 into IOTA

                                                        So far, I've been hollering around $400 profit off that $2.5K investment. Today, I decided to put another $1K into ETH as I've heard and read great things about ETH. Even though most of crypto market has been in the red the past few days, NEO and ETH have been doing pretty good and balancing out the losses on the other coins. I think my current portfolio diversification is alright, but am planning to daytrade a little bit using $500. In any case, just wanted to share this with you. Read it, skim through it, or just ignore it.

                                                        Let's make some $$$!

                                                          conceptually if you think about it... it will explode in Asia with all the counterfeit markets over there... loved the concept when I originally got in.
