An unexpected surprise! 30u in hand. It seems that the information from third parties may not be accurate. Every afternoon at 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10, everyone can take a stroll on the alpha page 5 minutes in advance, there might be surprises. Since there is no announcement, I can only work a bit harder myself. Perhaps this is also Binance's little thought to increase user stickiness.
Brush alpha, don't take shortcuts by selecting 'instant' orders, choose 'limit' instead, otherwise the slippage will be so large it will make you question your life. Also, can the official daily alpha airdrop time be announced in advance on the homepage? This should be technically easy to solve, right? @Yi He @CZ
Solemn declaration, I am just guessing as well. I am definitely not a market maker. I only know that these two coins, besides being manipulated by human control, have no reason to maintain such high prices. The higher you climb, the harder you fall, the more it hurts when you hit the ground. The window for opening a short position in gold, did you seize the opportunity? #pievers #beat $PIEVERSE $BEAT
aster has been invested for 39 days, with an average cost price of 1.05u, currently in a loss state. Although I didn't make any money, I consider it as burning cash like smoking, leaving behind a pile of cigarette butts.
zec has stabilized at over 300u, in a slight fluctuation, waiting for a push upwards before continuing to open short positions. I have been closely watching pievers and beat for the past two days. These two targets should have opened the golden window for short positions. pievers is seen below 0.3, and beat must return to below 1u. #pievers #beat $PIEVERSE $BEAT
Proactive Trial and Error (Day 33 of the Big Fool's Smoking Cessation and Regular Investment)
The market has been quite volatile these days. First, there was a collective plunge around 2 a.m. on the 1st, followed by an oversold rebound early this morning. If one can grasp such dramatic fluctuations well and follow the right rhythm, it can indeed lead to a prosperous year. Following the right rhythm is easy to say but very difficult to do. Yesterday, I closed my short positions on zec and pievers. I definitely didn't close at the lowest price, but I'm quite satisfied. Because I still have a bearish outlook for the short-term market, I'm prepared to wait for a rebound before looking for another entry to continue opening short positions. The opportunity has come today. I kept a close eye on pievers. When it rebounded from 0.32 to 0.35, I opened a short position and set a 12% stop loss. Not long after, I was closed out.
Big Fool's Smoking Cessation and Regular Investment Day 32
The facts once again prove that so-called technical indicators are no match against policy. Therefore, I have never believed in those indicators like the 5-day line, 10-day line, MACD, KDJ, RSI, etc. It's the same with playing coins as it is with stocks. Making money is just a matter of having a bit more luck; losing money is because you don't have the fortune for unexpected wealth. Chives are chives, entering the capital market is like licking blood from a knife's edge; no one can compete with the big players, and even less so with the will of the state. What can be done is to go with the flow, take a bit of leftovers, and have a sip of the remaining soup. When the policy environment is favorable, open some long positions; in situations like today, open some short positions. Opportunities are always there, give up greed, anger, and ignorance, and use spare cash to treat playing with coins as entertainment, then it becomes easy and enjoyable.
A couple of days ago, while brushing points, I was consistently using TIMI, which has very low wear. I thought I had found a good target and was planning to continue using this in the future. I didn't expect that early this morning, there would suddenly be a waterfall! I once saw a post that said the best time to brush points is in the early morning when everyone has called it a night and gone to sleep, making market fluctuations small and less likely to get squeezed. I didn't expect TIMI to mercilessly give a heavy blow, brutally squeezing quite a few people. The threshold for Binance's point airdrop is getting higher and higher, suitable only for users with a stock of 1000u to play 2+15, and there can be no interruptions in between. If one day I get busy and forget to brush, 14 days will basically be in vain.
Watching the excitement without caring about the trouble (Day 30 of quitting smoking and investing)
It's been a month since I quit smoking, and I persistently invest the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes in #aster every day.
The smoke turns into mist and dissipates, but the investment wallet has left over 150 coins.
Although there hasn't been an increase in value, this calculation is worthwhile. In half a month #aster , 278.4 million will be unlocked, and the price of the currency will likely drop. At that time, I will look for an opportunity to short and offset some risks. The choice of investment targets is not limited to just choosing #aster . In fact, #hype is also fine, as well as #bnb , #sol , and #eth . Anyway, it's only the cost of a pack of cigarettes, so buying anything is still buying, and try to choose promising cryptocurrencies.
I do not believe in technical indicators. But I believe in the trend, and I believe that the main force will only raise the coffin for the leeks, and will never raise the sedan chair for the leeks. #zec After reaching a new high of 750u, every time it pulls back to over 400u, it strongly pulls up, repeatedly oscillating widely. In my opinion, the main purpose should be to sell off. Today it fell to 448u again. This position can be said to be the line of life and death. Going up, there is at least 300 points of space or even higher; going down, back to the starting point of the market. I personally prefer the latter. After all, the main force's profits have been substantial, the goal of being full has been achieved, why bother to stir things up?
Watching the commotion doesn't mean one is afraid of trouble (Day 29 of quitting smoking and regular investment)
#aster It has been lukewarm for several days now, oscillating within a narrow range. The fundamentals have not changed, and trading volume is slowly shrinking. There are all kinds of voices in the square, some fantasizing about a rise to 100u or even 1000u, while others assert a drop to 0.5 or even 0.2u, all backed by reasoning and evidence. The market is calm, probably waiting for the unlocking of 278.4 million on December 15th and 17th. For someone like me, who is a big fool, continuing to invest regularly is a daily task. If I forget one day, I have to make up for it. After all, it's pocket money; if I don't spend it, it will be burnt anyway. #zec Continuing to short.
This morning, I accidentally closed my short position too early, but fortunately, I made a bit of pocket money. I plan to wait for the right opportunity to reopen, as I feel there is still considerable downward space for this coin.
Some friends like to play the meme dog-fighting game on alpha, buying dozens or hundreds of U for each coin, and as long as they hit one, they make a huge profit. There is an even simpler way than this method, which is to open a short position on new coins. Everyone can observe that whenever a new coin is launched, after a few days of ups and downs, the vast majority continue to decline. If you open a short position at an appropriate high, isn’t that simpler than playing memes? There are so many new coins launched every day, just pick a few. Of course, the so-called appropriate high position is not something that can be bet on in every trade, which requires adherence to several original principles:
Watching the excitement without fear of trouble (Day 26 of quitting smoking and long-term investment)
There are still 20 days left, specifically on December 15 and 17, there will be 200 million and 78.4 million tokens unlocked and released into the market. The potential selling pressure is like a mountain pressing down, but it cannot shake my confidence as a long-term investor in quitting smoking. At worst, I can open a small short position to hedge the risk. Moreover, these past few days of shorting #zec have yielded some gains, which should be able to offset the losses from the drop in #aster . #aster #zec $ASTER $ZEC
#zec The market movements during this time can be described as full of twists and turns. Originally, a standard M-top was drawn, and everyone thought the market had finished its move, that the market maker would take profits and close positions. Unexpectedly, the market maker pulled the coin price back to 700u, leaving the bears in shock and suffering heavy losses. Next, the market maker drew another M-top, and everyone thought this time there would be a big drop, so the bears rushed in. Unexpectedly, the market maker came back with a large rebound of 150 points. The facts once again prove that the market maker is not a fool; they will not carry the retail investors nor will they allow them to easily make money! The rules of the capital market are always summarized at the expense of emptying the wallets of retail investors.
Enjoying the spectacle without minding the trouble (Day 24 of quitting smoking and regular investment)
These past few days, my elderly family member has been hospitalized, and I've been busy accompanying them in the hospital, so I haven't updated for a few days. But I've been keeping an eye on things. I can't quit smoking in vain, and my regular investment hasn't stopped; I've made up for everything that needed to be made up.
The unlocking event has left people confused. Sometimes it shows a normal unlock, and other times it says delayed unlock, but from what I see now, it is still unlocking normally. The two screenshots below are a comparison of the circulating quantity before and after the unlock. The sky is going to rain, and my mother is going to get married, let it be. Regarding #ASTER , I still insist on being optimistic in the long term. Even if there is a selling pressure after unlocking, I can't be bothered. The cigarettes I smoke every day have turned into smoke, leaving nothing but cigarette butts; but #ASTER still has a thought lingering.
Is it the project's issue #aster or Binance's display issue? That's ridiculous.
Quitting smoking is the hardest thing in the world. I've persisted for 18 days without changing. How can things keep changing? Have you ever played house games?@Yi He @CZ
After new coins are launched for a day or two, most will fall continuously, and inexperienced traders can try to open short positions with a small amount. However, it is essential to set a stop loss; even if a few trades go wrong, the loss won't be too significant. For example:
Watching the excitement without fearing the trouble (Day 17 of investing in a pack of cigarettes daily)
Today, the aster official issued a notice adjusting the token unlocking.
The experts in the square have differing opinions. Some say the project party should not change their policies so frequently; others say it may change back at any time in the future; and there are those who say the project party is drinking poison to quench their thirst.
Actually, no matter what, our only goal is to make money! As long as it is beneficial to the market and conducive to the stable rise of currency prices, any measures or changes from the project party should be applauded! Instead of pointing fingers and spreading rumors. Today's currency price trend is already evident. The initial concerns about unlocking have basically been resolved.
