You should.
Only idiots think daytrading is bad.
Why just last night some tard came on crying about how daytrading was a great evil because, like every other dumbass that says it, he thought daytrading was just clicking buy and sell at random on 100 times an hour.

When you daytrade, with an initial investment of $1000 all you need to do is make a measly 2% on each trade, and you're a millionaire in a year. I guess 2.5% because of the trade fees.
Holdtards don't understand the power on compound interest, or they're delusional so they think that their one coin out of the 500 or whatever is the one that will go up 100,000% or something.

It's very simple buy low sell high. The mantra has never been buy and don't sell.

This is spot on.

A good day trader is waiting 99% of the time. Preferably algorithmically-assisted waiting so he doesn't have to spend all day flicking through charts.

So a trader who uses this strategy would sell at 7:00 while price is still going up until 9:00 and even more to 17:00.

At 13:00 you would sell since it breaks median but it's going up.

Lots of lots stuff like this and I picked a random chart.

no, isn't it fucking obvious that the rise there is different from the sharp spikes out of band?

like they're so unbelievably different and it's SUCH a common pattern when a coin is pumping, you have to be fucking retarded not to see it

in combination with the fact that pumps generally happen at set times through the day, you should EASILY make bb trades

for example: cripple. Last 2 weeks. Pumps every night at 5 pm-7pm ish. drops a little.

We just saw this.

then overnight EST, it moons. Sell at 8~ am. rebuy at 2-3pm before the cripple pump at 5pm.

Make BB trades in the middle of those time frames.

Easy as fuck.

But if what you say is true, shouldn't it get pumped right now?

>>2535924
wrong, you dont sell because it surpasses the upper band, you sell once the green candles above the band turn red or fall back down. So in this example you would sell at around 9-930. Then you wiould buy just after 14 when it bounces off the middle line for two confirmation candles. Then you would sell at like 16-1630 once it goes red and below the band again. Sure you miss out on some money with this method but it hedges against your FOMO and trying to call tops and call bottoms will lose you more money than you are "missing out" on

well its once it turns red back into the scope of the bands, the other parts of the trade are more difficult to time, bollinger bands are a helpful tool but should not be taken too literally, they give you a good guideline to help you pick key reversals though. I use them in combination with candlestick patterns in order to find resistance/support areas easier. I wouldn't just automate anything based on this though.
