People can't predict this shit, it's extremely volatile. Those who claim to be making a profit from day trading are either lying or temporarily lucky.

The only way to make money is to buy and HODL without looking at the price very often. Just come back later on and sell when the price is higher. If you notice the price has crashed, buy some more. It's that easy, but the key is not to monitor the price constantly and try to predict exactly what will happen. Over long time periods (HODL) you will always win.

how have you been finding the pump and dumps?

>>2960874
I'm not smart or terribly lucky, I just recognize patters in coins. Barring anything unusual (which, correct, cannot be predicted), the price of something usually fluctuates by 1-2% every couple hours. On Bittrex the transaction fee is .25%, so you can make consistent small gains as long as you don't get greedy, and, again, as long as nothing unexpected shows up. At that point you're just as screwed as everyone else if it goes down.

I wrote my own bot, I don't watch all the trades. I'm not selling the bot or divulging the strategy, but it isn't one I've seen published... and I've looked at every bot thread here over the last 3 months. I suspect that if BitConnect isn't a scam I'm doing what they are. When I hit 10 btc I'm planning to write a bot for /biz/ which will be perhaps the first legit btc "doubler" - I don't want competition, that doesn't mean I want /biz/ to be poor.

I'm a white male and I'm not pretending, my gains so far are less than $300/day. If I were pathetic enough to lie I'd claim to make an average of $3000+/day. Here's the graph of my log, it isn't perfect - withdrawals show as sharp drops and it gets a little fucky when the exchange goes down. The weird bit before 7/18 was me moving to v3, the weird bit around 7/25 is me withdrawing .5 to test how the bot performs when competing with a 2nd instance of itself (and then stopping that experiment and depositing those gains back into the single remaining instance.)
