Thanks for your reply! Congratulations on being a veteran now ! It will be the first of many surprises you'll have along the way.
Trading is very tempting, but in my experience it is very stressful and is not as easy as you may think. I've made a few percent extra gains here and there, but sooner or later you'll be caught in a bad trade and all your gains are negated by one massive loss. Then you're forced to sell at a loss, or hodl until it gets back up again. It's almost impossible to time the market, especially since big parties will have people 24/7 and bots which are much faster than you are.
The easiest way to win at their game, is to not play it and just hodl :D
As long as you have invested in a solid project, of course. When in doubt, sell and go find a project which you do believe in, instead. That's what I am doing and I sleep like a baby during these times!
Thanks! The 24 hour thing would probably drive me insane! I would not be sleeping like a baby, lol!
Taking baby steps, testing out small amounts in dollar cost averaging strategy. I do need to find an easy way to get fiat in and out of the market, mostly in!
I have the same problem!! The money I have in, is fine. But getting new money in means I have to go through intermediaries where I can't set buy orders at a specific price. So I miss out unless I am sitting around with my finger on the trigger for the right moment.
Additionally, it's also more expensive to buy there than on an exchange. So it already costs me like 5% extra to purchase it, if not more.
