just placed my first ever limit order on ETH to sell all my ETH if it reaches $1400.
If this executes properly, then I’ll set a limit buy at $1300
Alright, limit well went through. Sold at 1400. Now it just has to drop again to 1300 and knowing my luck, it’ll never get that low again.

Looks like CME Group is launching its ETH futures on Feb 8, might lead to ETH finally breaking $1500. Could be a while for it to go back to $1300.

I guess I'm asking how they compare to link. Are they competitors, and one of the bunch will come out on top?

my binance.us account is still trying to verify my drivers license and my address for 3 days now. does it usually take this long?

Glad it went well, but you are prolly leaving some on the table. If using limit orders its a little difficult but I like to set alerts on kucoin for certain price points. For eth it's 1400, 1425, 1450 and watch it and after it passes those points I like to set the alarm again for when it passes those back down.
I do this as I don't expect to hit the peak but it alerts me and I can start watching closely. I try to catch it right after the peak and it starts back down. Usually allows me to max profits for these day trades.
Now doesn't always work, perfect example was this week grt hit first 3 targets and started back down. I sold after it hit the third target and started coming down. It passed all 3 targets going back down then freaking sky rockets and ran way past those plus 25%. So I fricked up.
Promise I'm not perfect on this at all, I mean at all. But I notice this is also what some of the bigger guys do too.

That’s an 8% gain and if you are doing it by the book your getting hit on short term capital gains as well as paying a small fee for the order. Is it worth it?

Thanks man. I’m just trying to get this figured out. This is play money so no big deal if I don’t maximize profits.

It may not be, but it is a profit and I’m just learning. Most of my money goes to my IRA. If I start getting good at this, then I’ll look closer at streamlining profits and tax liabilities. This is just play money for me.

Pretty sure we are due a correction here shortly. Im starting to look at taking some profits to rebuy at supports

in the end your captial gains are your capital gains for the whole year. Doesnt really matter if taking it daily, hourly or once a month. Anything under a year is going to be the same once added at the end of the year. if he is making 150/200 two or three times a week, even paying the small fee and the taxes, its certainly worth and extra 300-400 a week towards retirement imo.
in the ned though when doing this, its about building the play money up to a sizable chunk where you can make real money on these bull runs.
My pesonal goal is to build it up with the short term plays to have a couple grand more than i already do in the following (outside of my BTC and ETH long term hold plays)
ADA
DOT
Link
UNFI
AAVE
These are intermediate plays imo with a 3-5 year shelf life. Link prolly longer and depending on what happens with ETH2.0, ADA/DOT maybe shorter plays or longer. if 2.0 fails those two are big long term plays.
In the end its worth it imo, but this is just bonus money on top of my other investments.

My issue is that I have a number in my head that I want to get out with. If I hit it tomorrow or in December, it doesnt matter, I want to get out.
But then I realize there is absolutely nothing else I want to put my money in. Cash is being printed out faster than ever before. The stock market is overextended, housing bubble has to pop soon, oil is handcuffed by the govt, and gold and silver dont really appeal to me outside of actually buying coins.
So I dunno wtf to do really.

I don’t think there is a right or wrong plan, just a bunch of pleabs trying to make money on the internet.
My plan (if I can be disciplined enough to keep it) is to wait for a 5-10% drop and buy, then wait for it to go back to 5-10% and sell. The actual value of the ETH is not relevant.

As my wife has informed me , your cashout number keeps getting higher and your gonna hate yourself if it goes up more after you sell. She doesn’t even believe the money is real and calls it Monopoly money . But I don’t yell at her for the crap she buys so she is happy

dunno what he was in at or if he got out. but if he was smart, he should have made 25-30%. minimum of 20% in 3 days isnt bad at all.

why the frick would people buy yesterday lol, the run was pretty much over?
Thats like my boss, I give him a tip to buy silver last wednesday, what does he do.....goes and buys silver fricking coins. When he called me I told him...no, i meant AG on the market. Said he knew but likes to have the physical coins. Now he didnt gain any fricking thing and could have made 30%+.

oh and yes you are usually write on the market. Many are in here. Our disagreements in this thread are usually minor and more about somethings actual use than if value is going to go up or down.
Couple guys really good at stocks too on here, but jesus we have some clowns too.
