Long 10k bat 3700



can you please tell me what's your process to choose which coin to trade, meaning do you just go to Binance and look at the list and choose at random or there are some criteria?

Hi,

i browse through all binance charts every 2-3 days. on one screen i got the daily,  the 4h and 15-1h chart to check different time frames at the same time. it needs a seconds to check if the chart is interesting.

i then mark coins which seem strong or very weak. weak coins i skip often while going through charts. everything under 100btc daily volume iam not even looking at.
i also have some coins i always do check.

if i see points of interest iam setting up alarms to get notified if prices reaching a certain point or e.g. breaking a trendline.

while iam trading i'm looking at coins on binance , using the desktop app to check regular the short term charts of the top 15 mover and top 15 on volume. 

i also use a volume monitor to get alerts if coins move more than 2% or have a spike in volume. highly recommended! =>  https://crankykernel.com/binance/monitor




trying to enter ZIL atm . only cought 11k at 431. trying to get 70k more at 433.

1795 MDA long at 23600

50% out 24648 very quick



80k ZIL long 435 ...i fomoed .......stop 424





ADA looking sexy now. but its an asshole coin Smiley ...if you want to learn not to fomo take ADA. there is always a down wick to stop hunt. just place your buy order where you would normally put ur stop and be surprised how good it works.

my stop loss was at 919 and missed by 1 satoshi!!




long 82k ADA 951 ...fomoed the high Roll Eyes

market looks more friendly ..stop 919





ARN nice chart. missed yesterday my entries by few sats arounf 7k. lets see if i can find an entry later.





long 2260 ZRX at 9752

small position since the price is high ...bad entry level tbh

i plan to double up around 9400

the daily chart looks very nice.

ARN nice chart. missed yesterday my entries by few sats arounf 7k. lets see if i can find an entry later.



went down to 7260 ...missed again ..now 7681 ..jeez



1795 MDA long at 23600

50% out 24648 very quick

rest MDA stopped out break even for an average win of 2% or 0,008 btc

Long 15k XEM at 1879

taking the 1st Position here. got more at 1833





HI all,

abit unlucky today with some positions. Aion went up 20% but got stopped out before and ARN was up even 45%.
But its alright. i dont mind taking close stops. want to limit my risk to the downside to a minimum. Aion i alrdy did hold more than a day and thats usually the time when i start to get impatient, increasing stop losses permantly.

so here the trades again in detail:

SOLD 10K AION at 3430 for a loss of 2.43% or 0.009btc
SOLD 42.3k RVN at 487 for a loss of 2.6% or 0.005 btc

Sold 18.1k QKC for 1144 - break even
 
here the trades. As you can see i also sold 12 ARN at 11300 ...did buy them at 7300 yesterday ...the rest of my 3k order didnt get filled ...I WAS SOOO close to a nice trade..





Long 15k XEM at 1879

taking the 1st Position here. got more at 1833


Went down to 1835 ...missed buy by 2 sats. currently 1869



XRP entry at 8700 missed





calling it a night - had no time today.

still in ADA, XLM, XEM, GVT and ZRX

ZRX had a downspike till 94 but i had no buy order in the system.

market is getting abit dangerous for longs- got to watch btc closely.

good night



Posting from phone.

Market dumped but i didnt react. Doubled zrx position at 94.11

2nd half ada stopped out break even Sad



13400 bat long 4188 abit fomo

And i need to correct my zrx entry. I didnt double at 9411. i only got partially filled (700) at 94.04



Hi all,

didnt have time yesterday. will catch up now.

SOLD 82k ADA at an average of 976 for a gain of 2,5% or 0,019 btc

trades:




Decided to make a results overview every end of the month.
i will start with november, combining Oct/Nov since i started 21st of October.

Goal is to finish every month in the green...

in retrospec i got to say iam not unhappy with how things were going. considering i got one very bad trade where i lost 0,13btc (BTC long got stopped out at 3448 - still in shock haha).

in fiat iam ofcourse also down since btc decided to lose 30%. i'm very dissapointed though that i couldnt profit at all from the dump since my short term bias was short.

ok so here it is:

OCT/NOV  => +0,54 btc


all trades:


and the  overall graph:




Here my current positions iam Still in:


BAT (long 4188)

i entered entered bcs of the green szenario. rejected so far. i blame BTC weakness




ZRX (long 9811 and 9404)

unlucky with my long at 9404 - cought the low but only got filled partially. if we can push through 100 i think we will see 108 again which would be my target.





XLM (entries 4250, 3720, 3808, partiall sell at 3743

iam losing patience here: i think i will go out below 3900 . if we break 4050 it looks very good.





XEM (long 1833 and 1879)

basically playing the green line in the daily which i drew like 2 weeks ago.





and my last position i got:

GVT (long 116000)

i didnt add around 110 because i start to see a descending triangle which may break to the downs side. i think its a chance to see 90-95k then. however we also have strong support here thats why i didnt sell. its a small position anyway (0.2btc - got to get used that this is only 800$ now Sad.





BTC short time bias is bullish - days

mid term bearish -weeks/few months

long term bullish -








SOLD all my 14k XLM for an overall loss of 0,027 btc


orders:


SOLD 30k XEM at 0,00001860 - break even

orders:


reducing risk here.
dont like the charts so much anymore. maybe i will re-enter XLM above 4050. but for now i will look for better opportunities.



SOLD 13.4k BAT at 0,00004114 for a loss of 1.9% ot 0,01 btc





for me it looks like a failed break of 4150. i find the risk too high that we dump here. i feel good atm with not too much beeing exposed to the market.
iam like 80% in BTC



Long 21k THETA 1847 ....maybe a spike up to like 2100..typical saturday night gamble...



Long 21k THETA 1847 ....maybe a spike up to like 2100..typical saturday night gamble...

sold the first few at 1919 ...have sell orders up to 2039 - but i guess i will sell when i see the upmove is ending

Long 500 MCO 0,00600 stop loss 0,00589



Sold 500 MCO at 620 for a gain of 3.2% or 0,01 btc.








Long 15k ADX 2339  tight stop 2299

highly likely i will get stopped out but risk reward is good.





long 2500 ONT at 2000





Hi all,

didnt have time today.

lost 3 of my 4 position. BTC too weak . but its fine since the losses are small due to tight stops / relatively small positions.

SOLD 15000 ADX at 2889 for an overall loss of 1,9% or 0,008 btc
SOLD 2500 ONT  at 1958 for an overall loss of 2,3% or 0,011 btc
SOLD 3033 ZRX at 9586  for an overall loss of 1,4% or 0,004 btc


here the trades:


it also showed a BAT trade. Entry at breaking 4300.  i made like 2% with a 0,67 BT position netting to around 0,013 btc profit. But i forgot to post the entry so i will not include it in the stats.

my last position i have the GVT (only 0.2btc worth). i think it will break down but dont want to sell at support here (111 currently). Should have sold at 119 yesterday (top of the descending triangle).


Wont trade today - need to catch up some sleep.

long 1360 Waves at 4333


volume picks up abit ...touched the 4100 level




looks like we cought the break here in waves ...i will adjust the stop to 4249 try to let it run up





hi all

Sold all WAVES at 4246 for a loss of  2,2% or 0.013 btc

unfortunately stopped out. currently at 4350



EOS went up very nicely into the first target zone.
I sold half at 5549 which will be like 10%

now its at 50. Iam feeling abit stupid infact to not have sold all. yes ..plan is to sell around 60 the rest but over night i was pretty sure we couldnt go there. IT would have been much better to sell all and looking for re-entries.
here with a 10% drop i may do that actually.





thats what iam actually looking at in eos. since we got high momentum at the way down 4850 may be possible soon. the H4-chart still looks terrrible and like lower lows.
entering around 4850 with the plan to close at new lows might be a low risk setup. ) but we need to see signs of reversal. i will not just buy the level. (cought the knife yesterday alrdy)







if btc doesnt turn around and move up here it doesnt look so good for my long. it did hit 3.5k last night again which would have been a nice exit.





ZRX - wow ...did go to 99 ...we bought it yesterday at 87 ...exit 90 ...

entering a potential buy zone here..





little overview...

since i was posting alot of trades the last days ...
after dropping about 0.15btc in beginning of december, we are currently break even for the month due to the trades of the last 2 days. (EOS trade and BTC long currently up like 0.03-0.0 4btc which is not included)







BTC soo damn weak - stop for my position increased to 3349 - dont want to let the position run into minus





missed a nice buying opportunity in ETHBTC

Hi all,

 as said  i couldnt post much due to family. I'm pretty disappointed by me fomoing the highs of some coins after checking btc around 3600. i basically bought in the middle of zones without a real plan and way too wide stops on the phone instead of letting it go. pure unprofessional fomo got me this time after 2-3 successful days with a way too strong bullish bias. although i did end up only slightly in the red, those trades can really bring you in trouble. - not proud of me there.

 

RVN stopped out at 397 for a loss of 5,2% or 0,023 btc
ZRX stopped out at 9273 for a loss of 2,3% or 0,009 btc

DNT i sold at an average of 443 for a profit of 9,8% or 0,05 btc
ADA stopped out at 868 for a loss of 1,5% or 0,008 btc

ARN still in currently at  6980 (-3%) stop loss 6849
EOS very nice at least with new highs 5843  currently up 8% with my entry at 5271- Target 2 in reach...

orders:









ARN stopped out too at 6817 for a loss of 5.5% or 0,024 btc ...so bad ...see post below Smiley....

BTC really weak. EOS pretty stable. i will put my stop loss to 5439 though, protecting some of the gains. target stilll 60-6150

HI all,

didnt trade the whole week. alot of work before xmas.

long 600 GVT at 0,0009851


really like the volume yesterday. buying the 81.8 retracement of the upmove here on declining volume






Long 1300 EOS at 5973 ...guess we are going to 62







doesnt look like btc has alot of potential to the upside short term
above 3320 it looks better. i expect it to move down at 3280





XLM 20k long 3055

at support in the daily -looking nice for a move to 3200 at least

keeping the stops close though since btc is dangerous.





suddenly sell pressure for XLM
stop 2979 now ..
GVT stop at 9649 and EOS at 5849

except of the GVT entry i dont really like my 2 other fomo  longs here in XLM and EOS anymore...
