Buying I think I get: set a buy order for less than the lowest sell (red?) order and its a maker order with zero fees. Its the selling I cant figure out.

Lets say current price is 124 802. I want to sell if it hits say 124 799 so I set a sell order. Of course there are buy orders (green?) all th way from the current price down so how do i slot in to be a maker on a buy?

If the current highest buy price (green) is R124 802 then you will need to put a sell order of higher than that to be a maker. If you put a sell order for lower than that then Luno will automatically match you with the person wanting to buy at R124 802 and you will take his order off the book, thereby being a taker and paying the 1% fee

As I figured which means then Luno does not have stop loss functionality and is a poor excuse for an exchange with exorbitant fees ie a typical South African ripoff company.
 
My ETH tokens also jumped from R5k to R5,850 in less than a week. that's pretty serious growth.

However there's talks of the bottom falling out under BTC in 2 days' time with the miners possibly moving over to BCH. I've now finally learned that instead of panic selling this is an opportunity to buy in more. :o Just curious how far it's looking at dropping.

Wouldn't be too surprised if it drops down to R80k before everyone come to their senses again.

Wouldn't buy into any of that fud, aliens aren't coming to delete our bitcoins... diff change in 2 days is -25%, ie, it'll be 25% easier to mine so more profitable for miners. Don't see why they would suddenly switch when its 25% more profitable than what they're currently doing today, smells like all bch pump n dump team working hard. That and BCH is, although going up, just going to be one big dump fest from all the peeps still stuck in it trying to break even from last pump n dumb

I've picked up the same vibe actually. There seems to be a lot of misinformation being thrown around everywhere - I hope my post hasn't done the same.

The BCH side seems quite aggressive and it seems like the mainstream hold the term "bitcoin" synonymous with cryptocurrency, so I also doubt very much that it'll disintegrate.

That being said, I'm still not putting anything into it that I can't afford to lose. Then again, all my investments lost a huge percentage in 2015 when Nene got fired. So holding ZAR, especially now, is maybe not much less volatile than people think.
 
Hope Bitcoin also participates in Black Friday and drops like a mofo :crylaugh:
 
big wall at 125k!

It's because there's a bit of noise around BCH which has had a good run in the last 2 days. Every time BCH goes up significantly, BTC goes down. So some may want to get out of BTC until the noise dies down. I'll also wait for a bit and watch BCH carefully before putting more into BTC.

I'll let you know when I'm buying so you know when to sell. :crylaugh:
 
Black Friday plus difficulty adjustment will see it fall in next day or two.
 
Anyone here wanna sell bitcoin for GBP's? Just a flyer.

I'm in the UK and its currently a pain in the ass to buy BTC.

You don't have Visa or Mastercard?

There has to be another reason you don't want to buy from an exchange.

You need to follow big players on Twitter, they have been pumping DOGE this week trying to stick it to Bcash!
