SIF: Example of how hedge-funds operateThe strategy described on the chart is simple. First i'll take a long position to target the last high. From that point i'll take a short position which is exactly the same size as my long position. This means that from that point it doesn't matter what the market will do next, because I have my profit locked between these 2 points. I would preferably see price to then break the last high, so i could add another buy above it. If price gets back to the entry point of my short position, I simply close the extra long, and will not have any negative effect on my profit. The advantage of hedging your position is that: 1. You'll have no risk from that point, if done correctly. 2. You could add positions if the market continues to surge and make extra profit. 3. No one knows what the market is going to do, it's always a process of probability. So if the price does go up to the last high, and then crashes down, I'm still risk free and could even add more short positions to it. You could also hedge by going long in one stock, and short another stock which is correlated to the one you went long. You then expect one stock to do better than the other.

LTC Conversion from Mid Tier Coin -> to Top Tier CoinGuys, I updated my analysis only twenty hours ago. Now here's another update. From the original post : "Through chart analysis and the undervaluation of Litecoin in relation to alternative cryptocurrencies, these two factors contribute to the nearing beginning of Litecoin's capture of the cryptocurrency market share. We are nearing the breaking point of a true LTC 0.88% bull market, with only a few resistance points to break through. Litecoin's primary activation of Segwit and Lightning Transactions paired with its relative cheap transfer fees and "simply, stable currency" reputation, we will see the unraveling of its "stable" reputation in the near future. Beneficially. For longs." Now, twenty hours later, we're nearing that Rocket Launcher Activation Signal Line. Those of you that aren't in yet, I highly suggest you get in in the next few hours. We may see a downswing or an upswing here and there, but ultimately, in a few days, the bullish sentiment instilled in Litecoin will carry the price upwards. Litecoin has long been following the steps of Bitcoin as a lower tier coin. Recently, in the past few months that we've seen in the Great Cryptocurrency "Mooning" of 2017, Litecoin has slowly been breaking through the chains of bitcoin. Litecoin does still follow trends in bitcoin (BTC down, LTC down), but we have seen zones of stability with Litecoin such as during the Cryptocurrency dip in mid-late summer. Bitcoin dipped while Litecoin comparatively held much more value than Bitcoin. Litecoin is converting more and more HODLers as more and more people realize the "undervaluation" of Litecoin in relation to other cryptocurrencies. I say in relation to other cryptocurrencies, because the true value of Litecoin is unknown, and that is the same for Bitcoin and all other cryptocurrencies too. This value can only be found through real world use. We may however, see indicators of true value.. I found myself praising Litecoin strictly economically a few days ago when I needed to transfer some value to a fellow trader. I did not in fact use Bitcoin because Litecoin provided a much better value economically. The fees were only a few cents where bitcoin would charge me a couple dollars. That was when I realized that Litecoin was "undervalued." I used Litecoin because it made sense. It's cheap . That's when Litecoin converted me into a HODLer. The inevitable rise of Litecoin's price, popularity, and market cap thus will soon convert Litecoin from a "Mid Tier Coin" to the "Top Tier Coins." These top tier coins include Bitcoin and Ethereum. Litecoin is not fully a Mid Tier coin, but is also not fully a Top tier coin. Soon we will see the scales tipping for Litecoin to become a top tier coin. Soon, the Rocket Launcher Activation Signal Line shall be surpassed. The time has come.
