I guess it all depends on how you look at it. If you bought some half an hour ago you would already be up 10%

Imo it is suicide to buy anything as long as the market is dropping 10% every day unless you can sit in front of the computer whole day to sell if it goes up or down

That's a bot, there is likely to be a very similar buy order as well, they are squeezing the market spread, at least this what happened the other day at btc with ethereum.

Crazy at the moment, there's a $639,432.06 buy for BitCoin right now.

Ripple dropped to 80 cents and within about 7 minutes went to 90 cents then dropped a few cents again.

Even more embarrasing would be the lower spec variants of the VF in HSV's stable getting whopped by a factory XR8.

I just saw that too.

Bitcoin was over $25k about 6 weeks ago and now just above $9.4k. Ripple nearly $4 now under a $1.

Going to buy again at 20c, or maybe at $0.01 because it cannot be any lower....

Well anyone who was brave (or dumb depending on your perspective) enough to put a short on Bitcoin at or near the peak would be laughing now.

Do you guys just sit there looking at your computers for every buy and sell order on XRP? If your holding don't bother looking at it, seriously, it'll do your head in. I sold 95% of my crypto just before Christmas, it was ruling my life too much, best thing i did was sell it. I've still got some in VEN and a few other coins but i honestly haven't even looked at crypto for a week now because im holding this lot until at least the end of the year.

It's actually quite smart what people are doing, they buy any of the coins at the low price, keep them for a week after they have gone up 20-30% and then sell them off on the Monday and Tuesday, thats been the trend for the last 3 weeks and they just keep doing this over and over, its like a full time job to them and it also explains why the price just won't climb back up because there are no long termers buying up. Watch Mondays and Tuesdays.

All you are buying is the hope someone will pay more in the future.

Best of luck in these variable times.
