Hi Mike.
Welcome aboard. Fair warning that it takes time to get some traction here. I've made some, but not great progress here. I am a little disappointed in the lack of comments people make. Perhaps that's just me though.
right now, as for BTC and others, I'm bearish and recommend a trade strategy based on increasing your BTC holdings rather than worrying about the dollar value. I expect for the next three weeks we will be approaching BTC:$5k.
ahh, the good ol' accumulation on the dip strategy. Yeah, I see us going down to around $5k as well. I just hope we don't have sideways trading because that's when it's hard to make money. Volatility is a traders friend.
Moderate volatility can be useful for when working with bots. The whale tail splashes often need people intervention though.
Yes, I work with bots too ;)
I use Gunbot. I'll be creating a review for it shortly. Follow me @altcointrading for updates.
I've been writing my own. I needed to so I could understand how it all worked. I had been involved with crypto about 5 years ago, but due to a massive relationship change, coughdivorcecough, I had to end that sort of thing for a while. I came back and things are...different, but the same.
Bot behavior is very, no wildly, apparent and even predictable. It's been fun learning this again.
Already followed.
