Yes. Hit cancel and it's done. Then reorder with different price.
Thank you. I'm like a long-tailed cat in a room full of rocking chairs....

Put in an order for VEN at 6.18 (a hair above it's 24-hour low). Might not get it, but if for some reason I do, good deal.
I really feel like the ceiling is higher there. I have a sneaking suspicion that the ICON summit isn't going to change ICX much.....that it's already been factored into the pricing. That is, unless they announce something major.

Not sure if many have really looked into ICX all that much . Reason I say this , did you know ICON can /may add an additional 20% to the circulating supply every year ? As the coin grows an additional 20% coin for inflation can be added - Basically , its to stabilize the price . Well to me , I dont think it'll explode like some think it will . It'll go up gradually but we will not see this sudden explosion . I could be wrong though.

My only concern with holding any of these alt coins too long is that the value of ETH decides to surge and they stay relatively flat. You could turn around and not be able to buy back as much ETH as you started with and thus, lose money.

This is why you should always base your in and out strategy on ETH price (or BTC if that's your chosen core coin) rather than USD, if your goal is to accumulate more ETH.
If your goal is to just sell based on USD, the value of ETH against your alt is less important since the transfer from alt->ETH->USD would theoretically be quick.

Correct
I'm thinking about doing more into ETH while at 1k. I feel like it will get past that and not look back. XLM is my 2nd. Would like to keep putting into that as well.

XLM is a good choice if you got into it very low . The price of XLM will never be all that high as its supply is around 17 billion . Long Term it could reach the $3-$5 range .

Yep.. While VEN/ICX get the headlines ITT, WTC gets the #gainz
Still outside top 35 market cap so I’m still holding.

Tell me why.

Even as companies gravitate toward cryptocurrency, one of the earliest bitcoin supporters has elected to sever ties with the digital currency.
Online payment company Stripe announced Tuesday in a blog post it is winding down support for bitcoin payments, effective immediately. Stripe will process bitcoin transactions until April 23, 2018, it said.
Ironically, Stripe was the first major payments company to support bitcoin way back in 2014.
Transaction Time, High Fees Pushbacks
Outlining the reasons for its decision to do away with bitcoin transactions, Stripe said bitcoin has evolved as an asset rather than a means of exchange, making it less useful for payments. Transaction confirmation times have risen substantially, bumping up the number of failed transactions denominated in fiat currencies, Stripe said.
"By the time the transaction is confirmed, fluctuations in bitcoin price mean that it's for the 'wrong' amount," the payment processor said.
Fees have risen so much so that they are now as expensive as bank wire transfers, the company said.
Stripe indicated that customers as well as businesses have lost interest in bitcoin payments, with fewer and fewer use cases seen for accepting or paying with bitcoin.
The company said it remains optimistic about cryptocurrencies overall and discussed the strength of some altcoins such as Lightning, OmiseGO, Ethereum, Stellar, Bitcoin Cash and Litecoin.
Stripe did not rule out the possibility of bitcoin becoming a viable payment option again in the future.
Most Peers Leery of Crypto
Paypal Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: PYPL), which pioneered online payment and transactions CEO Dan Schulman said bitcoin isn't well-suited to being used as a currency in a recent interview with The Street.
"Because retailers have very narrow margins and when you have a bitcoin bouncing up and down by 15 percent over a couple weeks' period, that can be the difference between profits and losing money on every sale," Schulman was quoted as saying.
PayPal co-founder Peter Thiel's Founds Fund invested between $15 million and $20 million in cryptocurrency, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
Visa Inc (NYSE: V) CEO Alfred Kelly said in a recent interview the company will not process cryptocurrency transactions. Kelly said he views crypto as a speculative commodity rather than as a payment system.
Mastercard Inc (NYSE: MA) began using its own blockchain technology late last year for sending money while steering clear of cryptocurrencies. Instead, payments were accepted in fiat currencies.
The World Wide Web Consortium announced a browser API late last year that it created with the support of Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ: GOOGL)(NASDAQ: GOOG), Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT), Facebook Inc (NASDAQ: FB) and Mozilla that allows new payment information for bitcoin, ether and some traditional online payment methods to be stored in the browser.
This Payment Request API, when activated in browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Apple's Webkit and Facebook's in-app browser, will accept crypto-related information, making it easy for buying and selling goods online using cryptos.
In November, reports suggested Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) may begin to accept crypto payments after the online retail behemoth registered three domain names related to cryptocurrency. It was also speculated that Amazon could launch a crypto exchange to capitalize on the boom in digital currencies.

I was in @ .29 cents
But not enough - only like 2k.
I'm just unsure if now is a good time to buy more - or hope for another crash and rebound when it gets back to .31 cents?

Now THAT could be HUGE.
