No particular reason......just seeing that the recent crypto-market is so volatile, I thought perhaps it is possible to buy during a large dip and wait for the correction heading up.
But of course, this is purely speculation and gambling; it could very well go down by 80% tomorrow too.

No investment can be in the green every single day; there has to be some ups and downs.
If you micro-track it every single day, you'll be having high blood pressure pretty soon.

be careful trading them #altcoins, don't get burned.

Remember cryptos are very high-risk high-return investment. 10% for cryptos is nothing. See XBC that went up to 3000%. It can go the other way too.

Do you research, pick good coin and hold long-term!

I see. My sentiments exactly! However, I might go for NAV first then maybe a bit of DCR.

The problem is my BTC under loan! Loan rates for BTC is very good so far. And the loan usually taken for the full 2 days. Can get about 1% every 4 days. That USD 10 every 4 days! Since ETH has such bad loan rates, it is the main coin going into cold storage.

I don't really microtrack. Just enjoying the bullrun thus far. Most days, some of my coins are in the double-digit green but today is the first day almost all unbelievably red. I think it is now in correction mode due to the anticipation of March 30 bitcoin ETF. So I guess when the ETF gets rejected, altcoins will resume their bullrun, hopefully!!!!!

That's what I'm thinking. The whales are pumping all those useless coins to distract. I'm thinking they want people to unload so can get cheap or they are just playing while awaiting bitcoin ETF. I'm still going for good coins!!! None of my coins are in the pump BTW !

In the twitter, somebody actually recommend DCR, LSK, STRAT, RADS, LBC, SC, PASC and Nautilus. I have all except nautilus which I actually crossed out of my list. Going to take a look at it again later on.

Edit : ARrrrrggghhh!! My BTC all stuck on loan and most coins are recovering!!!

DCR in the green! I picked up a bit more just now.

Anyway, attached is my cryptofolio. Please don't follow my crazy hoard but if you have any good coins to suggest, please do so!

Good morning crypto forumers!

Cryptos now back to it's usual self. Majority green with minimal red!

I should have trusted my instincts......
Around 11pm last night, just before buying DCR, I had a nagging feeling that I should be going for NOBL, but I shrugged off the feeling and still went ahead with DCR.

Haha, we average people always no luck. I was actually thinking about buying some coins that has very low satoshi with no news. Just for the pump. Decided only to get SC in the end but it has potential. You wanted NOBL because it was in the red?

At least DCR also going up ma. I also bought some last night but didn't get NAV because BTC loan out. So sad.....

Anticipating a drop in BTC and will only buy BTC after ETF news.

I thought the news is out already.
SEC rejected the ETF application, basically for the same reasons as before.
But no major impact to the price of bitcoin so far.
I suppose the general public finally realised that bitcoin doesn't need an ETF after all.

newbier here, where u guys trade cryptos ah?

Huh, already? I think delayed response. Just checked prices, looks like BTC going down and ETH gaining.

I think BTC dominance going to be eroded further while altcoins will benefit more. Probably a good time to load up more!

Hmmm.... if we can find the next bitcoin while BTC struggles with hardforking, we will be millionaires!!!

checked, but thought there is one unified platform.

A lot of exchanges but Poloniex has the most coins. Can consider Poloniex.

wow... bitcoin drops 20% upon I have sold off some last month.

gonna get in when BTC hit the 900+ mark. ETH going up i see. gogogo

F**k my life......I had a sizable stash of LBC which I figured wasn't doing anything much, and I sold them on 12th March for around 1580 satoshi.
The price of LBC just broke 6000 satoshi a few minutes ago.
I need a minute here......

So sorry to hear that. LBC was struck off my list too because I thought it didn't have potential.

I'm changing strategy yet again. Yes I know BTC is the father of cryptocurrencies. Yes, I know ETH will probably be successful. However, say BTC and ETH hit 1000% increase from current prices, making BTC 10,000 per coin and ETH 500 per coin. The problem is it is expensive to accumulate these two coins at significant amount!

As such, I'm not going to concentrate on BTC or ETH anymore. For ETH, will hold just the current amount that I have. Will be channeling funds to potential altcoins. As we all know, 1000% for altcoins, esp low satoshi value ones, are a piece of cake.

The other thing to remember is to HODL!!!! Even DCR is already 500% gain for me. So far, I have only liquidated Dogecoin, my fun coin. The rest I'm HODLing and will not accept anything less than 5 digit percentage gains!!! Or more!!!

Now the question is, which altcoins to channel significant fund in, that's the million dollar question. At the moment, my funds are distributed in small amounts to all the less significant Altcoins.

I think I will have 2 forks . One is to have more amounts in good altcoins, the other is just grab whatever minor coin in small amounts. Some coins will die but so be it!!!

Come, let us study very hard to find potential altcoins and share share.

we all have moments like this, i had a huge bag of steem @5858 satoshi, I sold it right after Wink ETF denied when alts were pumped, gaining only about 20% profit. only a week later steem is trading at 30000 satoshi. I took a 24 hr break from polo, go out release some stress to shake it off.

You have a valid point, but why would you be so fixated on accumulating a significant amount of *coins*?
Your profit would be the same in terms of percentage, whether you hold 0.01 BTC, 1 BTC or 1000 BTC.
You're looking at it being "expensive" or not, purely based on its unit price, which, from my point of view, is not the correct way to view the value of the coin.
You should be looking at the percentages instead.
On the other hand, if you are talking about trading (buy and sell within short periods of time) then I would agree, as the volatility of the lower value coins is much higher than the higher value coins, so you have a higher chance of getting triple digit gains in a very short time.

Come, let's pool resources and become millionaire together!!! Of course, if go down, also go together.

check out this guy trading it's pretty funny, don't know if its still viable. but it definitely has a huge luck factor involved.

tldr;
randomly choose your alts. buy 0.1 btc worth of them.
set sell orders on a progressive price tier levels.
then sit back and relax
