lost 0.26 btc today when the pump started. Bitmex - never again.
Isaiah Harris
I have no sympathy for someone who gambles money they need to live
Xavier Powell
me neither. lesson learnt: dont be a greedy mofo
Joshua Ross
This. It's funny, I enjoy sports betting and I know of the appeal, the thrill, but so many people around here are playing slots and treating it like a serious investment
Fucking lol.
Gabriel Adams
Im praying for you OP, but if its true youre literally a retard/degen that deserves to stay poor
Isaiah Robinson
>going all in on 100x leverage a fool and their money are soon parted.
Eli Thomas
I have no sympathy for coinfags in general, unless they admit it's nothing more than gambling.
Joshua Allen
Yeh there's a house advantage for a reason. If it's rigged even a little you're going to lose long term.
Ayden Rogers
Investments aren't gambling, retard. Shorting / longing on leverage is.
Jonathan James
>investments are gambling
yeah margin trading is essentially gambling if you're not 150 iq number crunching lunatic, otherwise you're retarded
Not going to lie friends, this is mildly depressing, drinking cheap scotch, dimly lit room, watching the last of my money that is riding on one red candle and boom, liquidated, got to be up at 8am tomorrow too...
I legit might just end myself if this goes wrong.
Brandon Lee
Nice wojack, I'm saving that one.
Hudson Brown
Why not just hold them, if you picked solid projects and just leave them instead of chasing pumps. In a year or two all the solid projects will probably be worth quite a bit. It's like two years ago, you could have put 10k into anything solid and had hundreds of thousands now.
Too late now friendo, I have been chasing for 2-3 years now.
Benjamin Bennett
You know you could come over to /smg/ and actually invest without having a mental breakdown every other day. You will be broke by the end of the day OP.
Jose Lopez
>crypto "INVESTMENTS" If you didn't read the whitepaper, if you don't understand blockchain, if you have no tangible, conclusive reason to believe stocks will move in a way your strategy will pay off, it's not an investment. When I walk into a casino and put it all on red, that's not an investment.
Isaiah Hill
Shit user that is depressing af. I don't say this much but you should really just fucking HODL, you're obv shit at trading.
Tyler Flores
Yes user, it is depressing. I get by on my shitty job but I can't stop thinking about the 4+ BTC I had, planned to travel the world for a year or two but the dream is gone now.
Parker Jackson
>If I keep spouting bullshit people will eventually think I'm right jesus just fucking kys
Evan Morris
but I did all of these things user
Gabriel Hernandez
Oh the irony. Stay poor degenerate gamblers.
Brody Cruz
Good for you, though I personally doubt that your reason to belief was all that tangible. Anyways, OP doesn't sound like the guy that did do all that.
Xavier Brooks
>longing Oh boy
Kayden Hill
investing in risky volatile assets is still investing fucktard, even good portfolios for stocks have penny stocks in them, usually biomed
Evan Lopez
>investing in risky volatile assets is still investing Jesus Christ you idiots are dumber than I thought. Trying to beat the market is laughable, if you're not living off of dividends you're doing it wrong.
Oliver Reed
Please man, don't do it.
what exactly did you do?
Hudson Ortiz
I'm actually going down the list of all the coins on cmc and reading every single whitepaper, I'm getting kind of obsessive. I think that anyone who has more than a grand into this shit should do the same and research a few hours every day. Otherwise it really is gambling. I'm comfortable with BTC going as low as 2k at this point
Michael Williams
Living off dividends? You do realize that requires millions of dollars right fuckface? Of course that's optimal to putting my finger in shitfest markets like this one and I'll do that when I get there. But to not have a small portfolio in this emerging asset in CURRENT CENTURY is braindead fucking retarded, if it catches on it will actually be the new gold, not even joking. Use case as decentralized global trading platform alone makes crypto a 5 trillion marketcap alone
William Adams
You don't need millions to live off of dividends. You may have to work part time to make a little more cash, but most of you fags refuse to work, so instead of taking your time and investing money slowly, you go all in on shit coins and most of you lose time and time again, but can't stop because you're addicted to gambling. Best part is you've convinced yourself it's investing and being responsible.
Nolan Edwards
You need millions to live off dividends. Dividends from my current portfolio give me literal fucking shit faggot, I get more money staking shitcoins
Christopher Brown
Simply not true, but continue boom or busting. Thanks for the (you)s. Don't ever say that nobody tried to help you losers.
Brandon Price
Most of the top 100 are shit and have no exposure. You're wasting your time reading white papers indiscriminately. Just think a little bit about protocol level ideas and then look for coins that fill super general roles. That will save you from reading at least 70 whitepapers for doa projects.
Jason Kelly
I'm building a stock portfolio too you dumb nigger, I'm telling you I cannot live off of it currenty, even if I were to dump everything from crypto into my portfolio.
Parker Gonzalez
Post some evidence. With which stocks can you live off dividends in addition to a shitjob for less than a $500k investment?
Ayden Johnson
ouch i did the same thing after getting slaughtered by my alts and lost all my money shorting. Never going to bitmex ever again and going to try to do something with this 500 bux i have left
Jonathan Johnson
I came back to say sorry OP
William Foster
rekt?
Joseph Moore
you need about 1 million, no?
Brandon Gonzalez
probably, never did the math but its gotta be up there. I have a $4k portfolio I've been slowly building by adding a little bit every paycheck and the dividends are something like 10 dollars yearly
Jaxon Hall
UNIT pays a 13% dividend you could easily pull that off with less than 500k. The point being you lazy fucks are going to have to work hard for awhile to build the capital to do this. If you honestly think your 10k shitcoin portfolio is going to take you to the moon, you're going to be disappointed. Get rich quick schemes rarely work.
Jonathan Williams
>Living off dividends This board is called Veeky Forums not /HoldSomeShitAndHopeForTheBest/
Bentley Bennett
What site do you yankees use since BitMex hates you?
Hunter Cruz
You mean like what you're doing now with shitcoins?
Christopher Williams
The only certainty minimum wage cucking has is to die poor and alone after a miserable life.
Go for it OP. One one side there's a life of wonder, on the other a rope. Roll the fucking dice, you have nothing to lose and all to gain.
Jeremiah Lewis
>Implying I'm holding coins You can x3/x4 your portfolio off the stock market alone within a year easy, why the fuck would I risk it on some shitty coin you retard.
Glad you're not holding shitcoins at least you're smart in that respect.
Joshua Moore
will someone explain to me how these margin calls work?
Is it that OP is rekt if BTC drops below $9495?
I am reading about margin calls on investopedia and looking at the FAQ on bitmex but I am still not exactly sure what the OP is saying. ty nons
Leo Evans
Sound.
Connor Lewis
Jesus, you guys are retarded.
Literally, it would be more better if I made a business traded for you guys with 10% commission. At least you guys would make a killing with me risking less.
But.... I am doing pretty good so far.
Michael Lee
Will you livestream the suicide if you get liquidated?
Hmm okay I think I've read enough on my own. Just to verify though, OP is betting that BTC won't drop below $9495? Hmm.. I'm clearly a noob on these margin calls but if so, that's a really stupid bet. Gl OP!
Jacob Sanders
I look forward to your angry wojak and you suck starting a pistol when you lose everything. The adults are investing in stocks, you "wittle kids" can stay at the kids table.
Robert Murphy
It depends if he went Long or Short on leverage.
In this case he went long and only has enough collateral on margin to the pay the lenders @ 9495.
Nope, was going to close at 9900 but now I am bordering liquidation again.
Ethan Perry
Ahh, thanks. Makes sense. In I feel like that's going to hit in the next hour or so. Hope not though for OP's sake.
So it Bitmex restricted in US? Do Americans have a workaround or is it not worth messing with? Pretty fascinating but seems way too risky, way too much gambling in the already super volatile market.
Jaxson Lee
same here dude, really, 2 years in, hit 140k, met Bitmex, all down to 10k. life still sad again
>shorting the giant play stupid games win stupid prizes
Tyler Sanchez
How high was the margain?
Evan Rodriguez
he was longing I believe
Henry Ross
I'm sorry to hear that man. It may seem like the end but it's just the beginning. I worked at subway before I started my amazon account. About 8 months in and every month growing by 20-80%. Pic related. Give it a try, you'll be working for yourself in a far less stressful environment than being a crypto fag. Wish you the best.
it really is a trap, btc is too wild for leverage. Fucking bitmex i should've stayed on shitcoins
Joseph Turner
feel for u dude. looks like i just came there to liquidate you. back spike up. but stay away from this bitmex shit
Julian Cooper
hey. what do you sell, and how do you get it? fba?
Xavier Hill
What are you selling? Any tips?
Evan Lopez
What the fuck do you mean this is my "last chance". All you had to fucking do is wait for your shit coins to go back up. Worst case scenario you go back to 2 BTC and never trade again. BTC and crypto in general is going to trillions in mcap. Even if you all inned ETH you would have roughly 100k in 5-10 years. No its not muh lambo but it's better than losing every thing because you're down 75%. Guess what the market fell 75% and if you were in alts and sold at the wrong time you should be down 75%. You don't margin trade on 1-2 4h green candle what the fuck. I am genuinely triggered that your post isn't larp. I hope you get your shit together and learn from your dumb fuck mistakes.
Connor Bell
Doesn't matter what I sell. Everything fucking sells with FBA. Find a mid demand low supply product. Send it in, make a listing and get yourself some passive income.
Don't sell books or video games like the other retarded sellers on amz, pick something unique.
Noah Wood
Made 2x yesterday. Today I went down twice to almost investment level, but gradually climbed up and now is 1.9x up, or 0.1x below today's starting capital. Closed since I went to bed.
WHy would you fucking gamble you're stupid shit before the second biggest bull market in crypto currency? You will not get another chance like this again with that shitty starting capital gain. It's prime time for coins with actual use to display the true value.
Christian Roberts
>Made 2x yesterday. Today I went down twice to almost investment level, but gradually climbed up and now is 1.9x up, or 0.1x below today's starting capital. Closed since I went to bed.
recurring gamblers wont make it. u post one day that u lost all
Austin Carter
The Chinks or thailand
Adrian Phillips
Shorters never win.
Carson Hall
I know. All I need is one shit break, like completely unexpected bad news. I'm basically using pocket change compared to my holdings. Though in 2 days I've made more in % on this than 3 months of holding and occasional swing trades.
Dominic Campbell
He went long
Chase Allen
Longers get rekted just as much, dummy. The exchanges like Bitmex are so botted up now, and the market so fucked up, everyone is getting wiped out eventually, except maybe a small handful of cast iron ballers who can afford to fund longs from 10k.
The last couple of weeks, there has been a massive amount of shilling for Bitmex here, to draw in as many suckers as possible. I don't think it's the Bitmex employees doing it, but a chat rep said they monitor and post on twitter and reddit and elsewhere, so who knows? But what I see is people who have maybe $50 in their accounts at any time telling morons here to "come get rich!" and then laugh at them in trollchat. Between the botting and the pumping, I don't see how anyone would risk a dime over there without knowing what a complete crapshoot it is.
Noah Reyes
>shorters never win >he was actually long pic related guys, it's (You)
well, it's not impossible to make gains on margin trading. but you should have at least some idea of what you're doing
Hudson Howard
wait ... you longed at 9.6??
there were so many better opportunities, you really fucked up
keep trying you'll get it one day
Christopher Richardson
Sure, eery flip of a coin is a winner and loser, eventually. And yes, you should know what the hell goes on over there, especially their problem of the site going tits up when traffic peaks on pumps and drops, a lot of suckers get wiped out when that happens.
I won't say making money is impossible there, I'm talking about the last couple of weeks, since Bitmex has been pumped harder here than pajeet coins.
Elijah Rogers
The market is less random than a coinflip, user. Illogical? Sometimes, but not random.
Charles Ward
the higher the leverage the more it resembles a coin flip
Damn funerals are gonna cost 2 million dollars next year?
Christopher Bell
...
Charles Walker
These days? I don't see anything to make me confident that putting money on the table is any less risky than a craps table. You do what you want with your money, I think places like Bitmex are far too risky for anything more than shits and giggles and play money.
