Wow, what a bearish ride for the past couple of days in the cryptocurrency world. Bitcoin and all the other major altcoins have lost value on average by 25% in the past couple of days. From trading BTC at $11,615 on March 5th down to $8,606 on March 9th.  Long story short - I've been investing in cryptos since the second part of 2017. Before actually investing in cryptocurrencies I developed the so-called dollar cost averaging plan, and decided to buy the major cryptocurrencies once in the…

For the past couple of days, I've been testing Gekko BTC trading bot, executing a few trades running the bot on my laptop, ending to build a VPS to run Gekko trading bot on a cloud. As you can see for right now - I'm fully determined to master this trading bot. To master trading like a pro some should learn basic technical analytics, in today's article, I will speak about using Relative Strength Index (RSI) for crypto trades. I believe RSI is one of the easiest ways to trade cryptos. …

At the start, I wanted to set a goal to trade up to 1 BTC, but then I realized I should set more realistic and achievable goals, as despite I've been exposed to crypto investments for more than 7 months already, the total net worth for my crypto portfolio, barely reaches just 0.3 BTC. I have a several tactics when speaking about crypto investments, the first and most stable - buy and hold once in a month, no matter what (dollar cost averaging), since the second part of August 2017 I've been…

Originally I planned to publish a brief recap of dollar cost averaging in bitcoins and altcoins at the start of January, as it marked 6 months since I've been using this approach for investments in cryptocurrencies. Time flies, and I forgot about this article, now, with cryptomarkets tanked with the start of 2018 I decided it still matters to come out with such article. A brief background - I'm quite new to crypto investments, I bought my first Ethereum back in July 2017, see First Investment…

Each time I add some new graphics card to my existing gpu mining rig or some other major happenings happens I make a quick update into the blog.  There are two major updates since my latest post from cryptocurrency mining experiments - I have installed another gpu card (in total there are  already 4, giving a hash power of about 53 MH/s) and second, Ethereum price has dropped by about 40% in the last days (from $1,430 in January 13, 2018, to $1,007.41 in January 23). Both things heavily affect…

I got a phone call from a friend, pretty strange phone call - friend was asking what would I do if I had spare $2,000, where would I invest them to make about $300/mo After the $300/monthly figure for me, it was clear - a friend is most probably talking about cryptos, and more probably about crypto mining. As I've been covering many articles on cryptocurrency investment lately, the phone call didn't come as a surprise. See: Should You Invest in Hashflare Ethereum Cloud Mining Contract or…

Soon I found an interesting article on Steemit: Best Bitcoin Debit Cards! Bitpay vs Wirex vs CryptoPay As…

About 5 months ago I decided to give it a try and start learning altcoin day/swing trading ( Starting To Learn Crypto Currency Day Trading With EUR 25)  The idea was simple enough - I will use hard cash once in a month and buy BTC on Coinbase.com for EUR 25 and then transfer them to Poloniex.com to exchange in altcoins. Due to the increased BTC transaction costs I switched from buying BTC to buying LTC (litecoin) Affiliate link here: If you are just planning to acquire your first bitcoin,…

I'm 32 now and I have a goal to save one million dollars by the time I will turn 60. That's 28 years to go. In today's article, I will review the past year and take a quick glimpse at the New Year.  For me, 2017 was a year of peer to peer lending, dividend-paying stocks and starting with the second part of the year - cryptocurrencies.
