Re: risk management - name 7 coins - balanced portfolio for the summer

I tend to agree with most of what you say, and I am really thankful. Well done.

I will balance into XMR, LTC, and MAID - even though moderately, as all 3 are high already (*). Thanks!

While I agree with your Bitcoin assumption (I had been heaviest in BTC for years), it might go through the fire in exactly those weeks while I am away - right? How to go about that?

ETH is in this strange position now that it has been turned from its original intention into an ICO money grabbing machinery. So while the business processes dApp purpose is broken (due to ICO traffic jams), its price might still continue go up, just because more coins get locked, and new ICOs keep on creating demand - or not?

Opinions on the ZEC market?
Opinions on the UBQ market?

About GBYTE I am wondering, there has been a massive distribution of 'free' Bytecoins to us BTC holders recently. So what about there being an excess of supply - couldn't that depress or even drop the price?

Thx for the reminder with stop losses. Hints for that? How do you assess the stop loss percentage per each different volatility?


(*) When you suggest percentages, please also take into account the current price. You yourself might sit on coins which are far in the plus - but I will have to buy at the current price.


Thanks a lot!

Nice one, that are already two interesting collections.  THANK YOU!

I had not yet been aware of UBQ - which proper charting site has bittrex data (not tradingview.com, not cryptowat.ch) so that I can do some TA?

The demand~supply for UBQ, MAID, XMR, ZEC look comparably healthy. For SC, DGB, GNT, FTC however, the sell orders side is very strong.


I'd like to add one more wish, as I have little time left to shovel around my portfolio, and e.g. UBQ is already near its ATH:

(e) which are ideally near a local (several-weeks) minimum - because I have no time left to wait for dips.

 
So ... who's next?

risk management - name 7 coins - balanced portfolio for the summer
by

Who among you have experience in balancing risk well? I am seeking advice, and suggest a collective game. The background:

I am too heavy in BTC and ETH, for leaving my portfolio unobserved. Please inspire me how to mitigate the summer risks.

To create a safer, more balanced portfolio, for while I am away for my summer holidays, which 7 coins would you distribute your money in, for the next approx 7 weeks? I do not necessarily expect huge gains, but do not want to miss out on too much, and ... putting all eggs into one basket feels dangerous.  (advanced answer: Give percentages too. Or: Rank by amount.)

And yes, number 8 is a portion of fiat, too. But the better I balance the portfolio, the less perhaps I have to put into fiat while I am away?

Just name seven, which you think
(a) are not totally overvalued already, and are likely to drop to the core soon,
(b) have solid tech, team, financing, innovation, future ...
(c) are not too correlated (like ERC20 tokens with ETH), and
(d) ideally have a healthy market (demand~supply, e.g.: BTC, ETH, DASH, LTC, ...?)

So, the game is on: Name 7 such cryptos. Thanks!

Re: when an exchange kills a coin, it should follow a protocol
by
akd
on 28/05/2014, 17:31:28 UTC
a good solution would be for an exchange to have
an automatic payout in the case they do delist a coin,
user's simply add that when they are depositing coins.

VERY good suggestion.

And to make it simpler, a few defaults for recipient addresses in case of delisting:
  • When I have deposited coins into the exchange, the sending address is stored (*)
  • My last withdrawal address is always the one that would be used
  • when I buy a new coin at an exchange, that coin is listed in my TODO list = I need to provide a fallback address

Only the last case really needs action from my side then.

(*) can cause problems if that was a mining pool, or another exchange.

when an exchange kills a coin, it should follow a protocol:

suggestions:

  • give enough time between announcement and death
  • alert the users, preferably by email (not everyone is daytrading)
  • a mailinglist that users can subscribe to might help, to be informed about important events
  • cancel all open orders of that coin, put them back onto balance
  • keep the balance reachable for a few more weeks, to allow for withdrawal

what else?

discuss it here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=609520

Good work, everybody!

There are actually three markets:

LOVE vs BTC = https://www.allcrypt.com/market?id=495

A transfer fee has to be paid, I believe it is 0.01 BTC.
So you and the person you transfer to need to have that amount.

Thanks.

Is it a flat fee, regardless of the number of shares?

Where can I find that information on the site?

Why doesn't the site answer it? That would make sense, wouldn't it? The error message is not explanatory enough.

Please cooperate with LOVEcoinproject to solve your technical problems.

I have tens of thousands of LOVEcoins stuck at allcrypt, and the allcrypt message is:

Coin dead, stalled at 10,000 blocks for 3 days. Removing soon.

I don't mind that allcrypt removes it, but I want to get my coins out before that happens.

At poloniex, the coin is traded at a very low price, but it's not dead.

Thanks a lot!

@TWC you should probably type emails into the BCC field when you send a blast, that will keep the emails of investors hidden. Like now I, and others who tried IPO, have a comprehensive list of emails which can be easily linked to a BTC address and from there world is your oyster  Wink
WHAT!? Didn't put the emails in the BCC field? God......
Many beginners do not even spend one hour of
learning per week how to do things responsibly.

Hello new-bee-on-the-inter-nets:
