      Ditto on your Buffett quotes that are quickly contradicted in the space of a day.

          Hey Scooter, would you mind sharing the name of the alts you have?

              Decision made for the short to mid term...unless I see an obvious pump wick then I'm not trading at all.
              Such a hard decision to make because I love the thrill of trading. My biggest regret from the duration of the last upturn was that if I hadn't traded I would have had far more than I did at the end. Admittedly...I knew far less then than I do now but never-the-less.

              Done a lot of cost averaging over the last month or two so hopefully there will be some rewards going forwards

                That's usually the case. It's very difficult to beat hodling.

                    SC is likely to get pumped very soon - make sure you take the profits off the table, something I did not do in 2017 to my regret. Every time the weekly candle has closed on the 20 week moving average we've had fireworks in the the following weeks.

                    You could also consider holding less coins or just monitor those with the most value like I do. You'll stand a better chance of making more money this way.

                    Always do your own due diligence of course.
