Bitmex Ping Pong – A Simple 50x – 100x Leverage Thought Experiment

Published on September 17, 2018September 17, 2018 in TRADING CRYPTOCURRENCIES by Steve

EEEK 50x – 100x! “But, but, but you told us to never use this kind of high leverage “- and yeah, it is still true, one should never exceed 10x in our opinion. However, there are times, like right now where the charts indicate a big breakout is due. The markets show strong signs of compressions and the longer this period is going on, the harder the move should be that follows. The bad thing is we have only clues in which direction this will play. Let’s do a thought experiment for both possibilities and calculate the risks and returns if we prepare to play both sides. Don’t try this at home – this is just for demonstration purposes, to show how this high leverage could be used for instead of against you.

Signal Thursday - Interview with Bitmex Lifestyle

In the second issue of our Series “Signals Thursday” we will squeeze some answers from the head trader of Bitmex Lifestyle. To me, this group always was a rough diamond. The start was humpy, but then they cleaned up the house – exchanged traders, refined their strategy and opened up to the community. We always respect this kind of restless efforts to become better with each day and we can assume that this channel will offer even much more value with the upcoming times. A thing I like especially about them is that the trader team has started to verify the work of each other, so they send only signals which are confirmed, confluence-wise, by a bunch of traders. A warm welcome for Leo in our #2 edition of Signals Thursday.

The Unshakeable Bitmex Investment Strategy: Catch The Bottom And Let It Ride

Published on September 12, 2018September 14, 2018 in INVESTING IN CRYPTOCURRENCIES by Steve

Yes, we ‘mex a lot these days – the current charts are a day traders wet dream, however, an educated guess makes us feel 95% on Bitmex are just losing their Bitcoin before it goes parabolic and leaves the past all-time high of 20k behind with a smile of ease. One of the main reasons, why Bitmex breaks the neck of so many noobie traders, is that they are trying to catch the bottom. Catching the bottom with a juicy 25x leverage and let it run to 50k – isn’t it that, what the most traders over there are daydreaming about? Well, we developed a strategy which could make this (almost) possible – ok, better a with 5x leverage though, better safe than sorry. Do you want to know more about it? Yes? It is easy and you don’t even really need more than the basics of technical analysis & math. But the big question is, if the psyche of one allows executing this strategy – flawless, patiently and without emotions like a robot trader. This strategy is far away from scalping or day trading. Much more we will use Bitmex as an investment vehicle to catch a position near…
