Getting lucky and buying into a pump you have nothing to do with does not make you a good trader

You have to know when it's right time to buy during pump so yes it does make you a good trader whether you believe it or not.

He's right you know. Your last awnser kinda underlines it. To know when to buy during a pump is equivalent to knowing too late. You may catch the tail or even stumble right into it, but that's lucky timing rather than knowing what you're doing. You know coins get pumped and waiting for it to happen doesnt make for a good trader. Buying in when it's allready started is beginner trader behaviour: safe bets as far as you can grasp, since up is good right?

Your timing was right but that was it.

Congrats on the profit nonetheless but as he said, it's pennies. Lots of pennies do make for a buck so there's that.

Don't get cocky or you'll lose it all.

and how do you expect good timing without monitoring the market and knowing which coin is doing what?

you can't.

Call it whatever you want but this is not the first time I've done it so it's not just "right timing" or luck.
