Testing a strategy of my own invention: "Improved Stop Loss"
The gist of it is this: 1. On a downward trend, at the upper boundary of the Bollinger line, I open a short position. 2. If the price does not go in my direction, I add margin twice, each time one level higher. 3. If the price continues to go against the trend, I buy bitcoin on the spot for the amount of the short position. In this case, in the picture this morning, the position is at 83,000. Two resistance levels are visible at 83,500 and 84,500. I buy bitcoin at 83,500. At this point, the short and spot positions are balanced. 4. If the price goes even higher than 84500, I close the short at a loss 5. If the price does not reach the second resistance level and returns to a downward trend, I wait for a further fall and close in parts at 82000.
6. Bitcoin remains and waits for the price to rise to close at a loss.
7. The short after closing is either opened again or waits for a rebound to the upper Bollinger band and opens from there.
8. Bitcoin with this strategy is bought one position lower, down to 0) and will eventually work on the upper rebound.
Check out how the bot performs. Every second, it crunches data, catching highs and lows, operating purely on makers, saving on fees, using stop-losses, and earning with minimal gains.
How could this slip through my fingers?!..\n\nEveryone's in Bitcoin since 60. There's a promise to not trade and hold until 120.\n\nBut no, had to sell everything at 65 as soon as the price jumped on the news about the deal with Iran..\n\nWell, now I bought at 66,500..\nI wouldn't be surprised if it nosedives right after this.
I think I'm gonna stack some Bitcoin and hold off on trading until it hits 126.
Of course, there's a chance that the market makers might take it down to 50 or even lower, but you know how it goes - they can drop it to 50 and then pump it right back up. Patience is key. But if you start trading and trying to guess the moves, you could end up getting wrecked.
For now, all eyes on the bot - let it grind out those small gains. 1$ from 1000$ a day #btc $BTC
Strange thing. I notice that the price usually approaches the limit order by a few pips, starts to hesitate... and then either reverses or breaks through and makes a sprint further.
But it doesn't just stop at take profits, it also halts before stop losses. Although, theoretically, my stop loss should get taken out without hesitation..
Looks like there's a glitch in the bot's algorithm tied to the account
For the past 6 hours, the price has been practically stagnant, lines have been cast, the bells are silent, and the market makers are snoozing 😴 #btc $BTC
