First they laugh at you. Then they slander you. Then they fight. Then... you WIN.

Good job, lads!

Read the article and they could have just referred to it as trading addiction or crypto addiction. The term gambling truly does not belong in this field. Call me what you want, but spicing up the article with gambling terms is ignorant to say the least.

Apart from that it was still a good read.

I believe the appropriate term is clickbait

its called trading fever and it is nothing new...I spent practically every waking moment in january trading...I fucking love it...

Did you at least make 6 figures on early ICOs? How well did you do with the stuff heavily pimped on FB?

I just do daytrading and now swingtrading...I do not invest in ICO-s or even know a lot about what I am trading...trading fever is real...sometimes when I am not sure I will open a tiny position just to "nibble" and follow it to see what would have happened...it is not about the money as it is about the trading...

It's a gamble, isn't it??

Do you use some sort of software for daytrading? Like flag predictors?

no I use technical analysis to give me a general idea where the market might go and then I go for my 1%/day goal based on this...there are specific times during the day when it is easy to get 1%...for example when europe or the USA wakes up or when asians go to bed (I am in europe)...sometimes I get lucky and move my stop loss following a trend but I do not chase after huge gains because it is very hard to predict when some coin will pump...there are 10 chances during each day when you can make an easy 1% because the market goes up or down from hour to hour...

swing trading is giving me better results tho...I shorted btc at 8500 and got back in at 8000 because I thought it would rebound, it did not, it went down to 7500 where I shorted it again and purchased back in at 7100 but I got in to EOS not BTC...all in all I made an easy 35% in maybe 10 days...when BTC tanks I always buy alts because they rebound harder...

I am preparing to short again...IMO we are going down this coming week...

Trading is very profitable if you are experienced enough to do it.
