You are a trader. I am a value investor (with a very strong technological slant).

Trading is worthwhile when the action gets busy...

If I disappear from speculation discussion, you'll know it is because I am head in sand on my primary vocation, although I notice I am finding it too tempting lately to go off on too many polymath-like tangents. I really need to discipline myself asap. For example, I was tempted to go off and research Ripple right now to get to the essence of it, but I decided not to.

Good! I know the temptation. I'll be skipping the TA posts until LTC hits the 30s to focus on my other projects as well.

i have been kicking myself repeatedly since trading 4 figures at 3.90 into BTC & it hasnt stopped rising!!

The crypto majors are all rising, you'll be alright. Take a deep breath and trade a trivial amount, something like 1 LTC. When you can profit often, double the size of your trades.
