"Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark Twain -
I'm learning that with XLM right now...Originally posted by scooterscot View PostLearn to hold!
I need to dump something so i can trade more alts - thinking LTC and XRP.
Most important lesson I've learnt (the hard expensive way) is to have and stick to a plan. If the plan stops working you can change the plan but being able to stick to it no matter what > everything else.
i can see myself going back to spreadbetting FX at some stage (with a much much bigger account
) where it will be usual 1-2% a week. That is all about sticking to plan. Might even go back if/when the £50k cash out happens just to diversify and keep myself grounded.

The palm beach dude suggests to just walk away, spend time with the family. If you see a 50% loss in a day, just walk away. Don't react. Worst thing you can do."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Yes indeedOriginally posted by scooterscot View PostLearn to hold!
I wish I had held my 31000 TRX that I bought for 250 sats. It shot up to 1500 sats in the space of a week. My itchy trading fingers only let me walk away with 150 sats profit

Lumens falling as fast as it rose.
If you're a long term holder, then do just that and hold.
If you got out I'd wait until 50c at least..."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

I'm a jammy git.Originally posted by scooterscot View PostForce coin has grabbed my attention, trying to achieve the same goals as Zencash in many ways. Bought a chuck of it the other night. At only 2-4p a coin can it's worth a punt imo.
Bought this coin at 3c a pop a week ago. Now 18c!!!

If lumen XLM falls below 3100 sats then the next stop is around 1800 sats - be careful."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment
