But you can buy high and sell higher, or sell low and buy lower also.

Didn't read the thread so I have no idea if this was pointed out earlier or not.

Either way you write it you are still buying for less and selling for more if you get a return on your investment so the question is really null and void.

Question did not pretend to be very trandescent. Just... if you have a superpower to choose from, Which one will you prefer?

A) To be able to always guess daily max (ability to sell high)

B) To be able to always guess daily min (ability to buy low)

Which one will you choose and why?

There have been lots of interesting responses discussing about this IMO.

.

Well, assuming that you would know that a coin would be at $100 in the morning and $200 at night then I would buy low and then sell it for higher when the price meets the daily high.

Limiting it to only one day makes it tougher as Day 2 the Daily Min might be the Daily Max for the previous day and it would be a lost opportunity.

To add a realistic example,

Coin A is at 0.00000099 and you know someone is going to crash it down that day then you would want to sell it as soon as possible and then rebuy again when it gets lower.

But you can only pick one, you cant know the low and the high at the same time. Of course if you knew both you would be a millionaire by now.

I don't think there is much difference between able to guess the high or the low.

wait so you don't sell at all or...? so if you know the low and you buy but you don't know the high so you can't sell the high?

ehm, no. You just know one, either low or high. If you know the low you can sell when the price is higher because you know what the lowest is but you can't fully profit from it because you don't know what the highest will be. In the end you will profit the same using either of the options.
