    Looking at the charts today, and made some observations

    Posted: 05 Aug 2019 06:25 AM PDT

    It looks like the price is getting rejected around the $11,900 mark. I can see a small pullback towards the $11,000 range. Check out the chart here and tell me what you think. Thanks, guys!

    Questions about BTC volume on Binance

    Posted: 04 Aug 2019 11:33 AM PDT

    Hey!

    So i'm looking at LINK/BTC on binance and i wonder why the 24 hour volume is so low compared to the LINK/USDT?

    i'm new to crypto/day trading and watching lots of videos and reading alot.

    But still i'm wondering this because i can't seem to figure it out. And on finding the right coin to day trade for the day do i have to look at the 24 hour volume to be somewhat high? and look at the 24 hour change and does that have to be in the red or green?

    Thanks

    What to do with a btc machine

    Posted: 04 Aug 2019 03:53 PM PDT

    Hey everyone,

    About a year or so ago I purchased a btc mining machine in China, but the company running the machines went under. They shipped the machine to me here in the States. Do you have any recommendations for companies that I could ship the machine to and pay to run it?

    Unfortunately I don't have anywhere near where I live that would be cost effective.

    Thanks!

    Help me understand a leveraged long position on Kraken

    Posted: 04 Aug 2019 08:07 PM PDT

    I want to use BTC as my collateral to open a leveraged long position on BTC. I want to put myself in a position where it is very unlikely that I lose my collateral. Obviously using leverage on a volatile asset increases volatility.

    If I have .1 BTC on Kraken, and I want to use 3x leverage. What would be a safe amount to buy to avoid a margin call if the price drops by 30%?

    To explain further. If I have .1 BTC on Kraken, and I use 3:1 Leverage to buy .09 BTC, am I only "risking" .03 of my .1 BTC on the exchange? Does this allow me a significant larger margin for error than if I were to buy .15 BTC with 3:1 leverage "risking" .05 of my BTC?

    How can I calculate how much of a percentage of drop in the price would = the 80% margin call rate? I've read through Kraken's website and can't figure it out. There is never a listed liquidation price.

    Is this method more advantageous or less advantageous than having USD in my kraken account as collateral? I'm currently avoiding fee's in my calculation, however I have checked out the git-hub fee and profit calculator.

    How much of an advantage am I gaining by making this leveraged trade? Is the first example of "risking" .03 BTC to buy .09 worth on margin the same as buying and hodling .09 would be (ignore fee's just for this example). I'm trying to find a way to leverage my bitcoin to make more bitcoin, but I'd really like to understand the risks first. I am intentionally choosing 3x leverage instead of 5x so that I am less sensitive to price movements in the opposite direction.
