Buy the dip they said...

Im all out of chips for all the dip.

Ill be sitting in a HODLing pattern for the near future until my commons recover. I also made a bad gamble on an earnings call (options) and will have to take the L soon. Got to love the market

TLDR; got greedy and strayed from my normal plays. Market smacked me down.

Every thing we do in life is a learning point. You're a smart dood. I'm sure you will know what to do next time.

For what it's worth, you will recover. How do I know?

Because the next step is Yield Curve Control.

The fed is going to 'allow' the debt to go out of control (it's already out of control lol). The fed wants the reason to finally implement YCC. Hegelian Dialectic. Problem. Reaction. Solution. Kinda like the recent Suez Canal blockage and the oil refinery explosion in Indonesia will be used as reasons to raise the price of oil.

Then the stocks will continue to MELT UP.

You will recover. Then you will continue to play the game and continue to profit.

Ha ya I'm good. I'm far too leveraged in "growth stocks" right now. BUT I buy in blocks of 100 for a reason - to sell call options against my shares to lower my cost average. It's a slow burn since I sell contracts expiring 30-45 days out. Its boring

My crying is because I won't be able to pull any funds out for a while and its almost cruising season. Need to get my fleet ready and I'm still in the process of building out my new bug out vehicle!!

I was high on Canoo ($GOEV) but after last nights earnings call I dumped all my positions and put that money into Lucid (CCIV). Lets see if that can make a move closer to merger. As much as I still love Canoos product I hate their new direction and couldn't let emotions hold me in that position.

Not a political post. As investors / speculators we act on emotions. But we also act on facts.

My short time as a crypto speculator further confirmed what I already believe regarding the US gubmint.

Freedom is about choices. Truth is we are not free.

As Asians and Europeans increase their digital wealth thru speculating in cryptos, the SEC actually prevents ordinary Americans from doing the same.

Real life examples. I have tried to put fiat into some no-name cryptos (Penny Crytpos if you will), but they are ‘banned’ here in America but yet readily available overseas.

If we’re not regulated, we are taxed. If we are not taxed and regulated, we are banned.

I have seriously been thinking about getting my Filipino citizenship back and be a dual Filipino/American citizen.

Wealth is building in Asia. Americans are getting left behind in the 4th Industrial Revolution due to tyrannical rules imposed upon us by SEC.

Hope you guys are doing well.

April will be a good month for stocks and cryptos and precious metals. I feel it in the air.

And don’t forget to pay it forward.

One can hope, but I mean it's the main thing actual things are being built on so should work out ok. I don't need that much, since property, land etc is so cheap here if willing to move away from bigger cities. I always been a city person but really got interested in having my own self sufficient place if possible, where can grow your own things and sell off some lumber here and there. There are places with a small(sometimes large with machine halls) house and like 200 hectras for 150-300k. I just need to have half left when making that move and paying off debts beforehand. I just want complete independance...and minimal mothly costs. Anyhow..sorry long writing but get passionate when thinking about a different future.

I wont say I told you....but


Actually I am getting bold. Thinking of buying more BTC. I wanted to buy the dip at 51 but the money for the car I sold had not come. Got the wire yesterday and it is bouncing 58-59. My issue is this... If it breaks the 61 range, I think it will run to 70 or more.

If it fails to bust previous ATH, I think there will be a sell off.

All this will happen before the Coinbase IPO on the 14th. Dont know whether to buy or wait and see if it fails to break ATH. I have a buy order in at 56, but Coinbase pro only allows 35k / day deposits so it will take me a few days to get the accounted funded for whatever move I want to make. I am guessing that no business till Tues, so it may be Friday until I can get all the deposits made.

I think I am going for it! I may be crying down the road....but heck, I stopped buying at 12500 so I think I can absorb a set back. It is funny since we set these arbitrary benchmarks of the amount of 'coins' we want. I still cant shake that idea but I got scared as it climbed and just sat back and watched.

Unless the govt kills it, pretty sure we will see 100k by years end, if not 150.

It’s good to have a plan and a vision. Your vision is similar to mine. Be self sufficient without having the need to depend on gubmint. That’s freedom right there.

April is a great month for both stocks and cryptos. It’s still early. Trust me. Bitcoin is not the only game in town. The crypto bull market this cycle is not like the bull market we saw when BTC peaked in 2017 at 20K then dropped.

There are alt coins with actual utility this time. And there are more institutional investors.

Bitcoin will hit 70K this month.

ETH will hit 2500 this month.

Many unknown alt coins with utilities will 10x this month.

You already have the technical analysis skills and experience. It’s the same with cryptos.

Give it a try.

I'm balls deep in SPY put options (means I'm betting on S&P to drop from the current level) expiring end of April. I think we see a big tech correction this month. Well, I'm betting we do - at least enough so I make coin to replace suspension on my bug out toy

Made my first bite back into BTC. Had a few buy orders in at tiers. My highest hit and filled. I have a strong feeling about the next 12 days and I need to get my buy in before then.

I might be wrong....but I am willing to buy at levels that I normally would not consider. It has been consolidating for so long now and stabilized in the high 50's after a few big selloffs, this is what I have seen before massive up ticks.

I am willing to put my money where my mouth is and putting in all the $$$ that I got from the car sale. Scary but I have second guess myself so many times on this, I am ready to 'gamble'.

I hope you're right. IMO it is a gamble but so is the market now so why not bet on crypto if you think its will rise.

Coinbase will soon IPO.

This will guarantee that bitcoin will rise.

When a company goes public, there are many steps that must be taken.

When a company goes public, there is a certain level of trust.

And when there is trust, selling anything becomes easy.

When Coinbase goes public, the public will trust bitcoin more.

Bitcoin and all cryptos are all speculation. (This coming from a crypto trader.) I still don’t trust cryptos but I distrust the criminal fiat and toxic dollar even more (only because the fed runs it and the fed is the cause of many wars and suffering.)

I want bitcoin to go up. And it will. Because when it does, all other alt coins will follow. And when cryptos gobble up fiat currencies, the dollar will finally die; therefore, the dollars ability to manipulate assets via ETFs will also go away....

....And silver will find it’s true market value.

There are a few scenarios where this 'could' put some downward pressure on it...BUT 99% of them look like upside much more likely

I got my second buy just in at 56600 which is managed to fill in a quick dip.

I have one more buy, but have to wait one more day with coinbase pro's daily deposit limit. I could have wired the money, but then there is a few day hold for trading. W/ the 35000 limit direct deposit, it is available for trading immediately. Just need to fill my last buy and sit back and stress the 'f' out

Awesome, but what's in it for me? I mean at least post a pic of a suitcase of buy cash or something to help get us engaged. It's bitchin' that you're taking this ballzy bitcoin ride, but give us something cool so we feel like we've also got some skin in the game. And dont lose all our money!

OK...went to a car meet today with my son. If it hits, this is on the shopping list

McLaren P1. 1 of 75 examples built. STARTING price 1.5mil. This guy had it spec'd with no paint so you could see the entire carbon structure.











Here is some more to make you feel part of the deal. My car got loaded up off the Oklahoma on Fri. The The shipper (his shipper) about destroyed the clutch loading up the car. I sent this to the buyer and told him to have the clutch checked when he got it. I had lambo read it and it was showing 80% life left before shipping. Wonder how much damage he did here?.... (clutches cost 7-8k to replace... )

It's a start, but I can see nice car pics anywhere online. and I was feeling that P1 until I saw the rear wing structure. First I think the boot was open, but then realized its the rear wing assembly that frankly looks like ass and kills the lines. IMHO.

It's ahite I guess, but is that really the best we can get for 1.5mil???

and the buyer's delivery dude is no doubt on the hook for the clutch. Your mechanic can back you up. $hit happens. :|

We got invited to the koenigsegg unveil next Sun. 2 of the new models. I think on is 2mil and the other starts a 3mil and then has single options as much as 300k. A little out of my shopping range but we were invited. (It is actually open to the public, but we got the 'vip' invite . Basically they let you park close on site and you dont have to walk 2 blocks Hey...I'll take any perks I can get!

Will post some pics in the corona car porn thread.

Happy Easter.

No I dont think he will be there. Interesting guy for sure. Since the dealerships dont have 'floor' models, prospective buyers cant test drive, and all the cars are custom built specs, they 'tour' their models around the dealerships.

Will be a fun event to attend. My son is really excited about it also. It will be a packed weekend. Our lambo dealer is getting a new STO Huracan and are holding an 'event' also so we will probably hit both! We are on break from soccer so getting to play a little car time.

Happy Easter. (trying not to crap my pants from jumping in BTC this far along )

Thanks brother. Pretty low key day here with nice weather which suits me like an Armani. Hope you enjoyed your Easter with family.

It's great that your son already appreciates performance and craftsmanship. He's a lucky kid to have access to such sweet cars! Awesome bonding opportunity.

As for the bitcoin. Are we having fun yet?

"Look over here. Look over here. DO NOT look over there."

This ^ applies to all, not just the political circus. It applies to speculation / investment as well.

Bitcoin will continue to go up. Nothing against bitcoiners and those who have BTC. I have BTC. I have it because I use it as a digital currency to purchase physical silver when I convert profit. I like bitcoin, but I have been looking elsewhere.

But when you know the game, you cannot be played.

I purchased a bag of XRP around December 2020 / January 2021 when it was around $0.36. Everybody was afraid of it because of the SEC lawsuit. Everybody avoided XRP because Coinbase decided to delist it in January.

As mentioned, the SEC lawsuit was goat manure to make retail investors look over here, but not look over there.

XRP is now $0.72 as of this typing. So my first bag of XRP doubled. Because XRP was delisted in Coinbase in January, I continued to purchase on Uphold around $0.48. Coinbase will relist XRP and it will continue to moon. The new SEC dood is pro crypto and there is a good chance Ripple will win against SEC.

XRP will continue to rise because it is clearly the chosen coin of central banks as we shift from the current SWIFT system to a new one.

The quadrillion derivatives will either implode (which will hurt many around the world) or the central banks will need a new system to maintain liquidity.. Inflation is real. Deflation is real. But what many don't realize is that liquidity is also key. To put things into perspective, bitcoin is slow, expensive, and leaves lots of carbon footprint. Banks cannot and will not use such technology considering the amount of derivatives in the world. Banks need something that is fast, clean, efficient and cheap. XRP is it.

Another heavy crypto bag is THETA. Google, Apple, Netflix, and a bunch of other multi billion collar companies have already made a deal with THETA. THETA is internet 3.0. These big companies need the technology. My first bag has already doubled. I will continue to get THETA.

I will also convert some profit into SILVER. Because it is gold on steroids and physical assets, to me, are the best way to maintain generational wealth. Gold and silver have a 5000-year-histoy.

Just thought I'd share. Not financial advice. And never listen to goat farmers. They are a weird bunch.

[NorwichGrad]

Just wanted to share two of my go-to websites related to trading.

https://coinmarketcap.com/

The two indicators I watch here ^^ are Market Cap and Dominance.

Market Cap is the total market cap of ALL cryptos. I shake my head whenever someone says "Dat <insert crypto here> will never reach <whatever #> trillion because it only has a <whatever #> billion market cap." What many don't realize is that market cap doesn't mean jack because the global monetary system is 100% based on fiat. But it's worth keeping track of to show just how the fiat currencies - particularly the dollar - are losing value due to excessive money printing.

Dominance is none other than Bitcoin dominance. Again, I just want to make money. We all do. Personally, I do not get attached to any crypto. You'd be surprised how many bitcoin cultist / maximalist I have met who will defend bitcoin to their last breath. Dominance is also key simply because the #1 entity in any new industry will never stay at the top. Watch this dominance to know when to pull your profit out of bitcoin. Smart investors shift from one crypto to the next.



https://usdebtclock.org/

This ^ is fun to watch. Every time I check it out I shake my head and laugh. This has been my go-to site for years now.

Deed was done today.... Last of my deposits cleared...and had to make my last buy at 59.

Now it is sit and wait.... I think the next 2 weeks will be big. Already 'up' 2k on the entire purchase, but I know that evaporates in a matter of a few minutes of trading

But shocked to find myself taking this risk this far down the line....

I have a buddy messing with 'alts' and I have resolved that I dont have time to follow or research. And my goals at this point are still long(er) term (year plus)


So FREAKING mad I stopped buying at 12500 trying to keep my DCA as low as I could..... But even back then I had doubts. Over these last few months, especially with very real inflationary trends appearing, I am having more confidence in this.
