Do you also hate that feel when you have to deal with 110% idiot? Today, BTC hit 5000$ mark, right now it was 5200$. Media are now full of BTC. Me with my friend, having lunch.
Me: Wow, BTC is finnaly over 5k$.
Friend: Wow, I will just wait till it gets to 5500$ and then buy so I can sell it for kore when price drops.
Me: *trying to explain that if you want to profit you need to buy when its cheap and sell when its expensive*
Friend: No you are lying thats bullshit *ragequit*

It really hurts since he is really smart, especially good in math and logical thinking... 🙄

    While the rant as described seems to indicate that the friend doesn't know what he's talking about, I feel the need to point out that you can in fact make money out of prices going down using an appropriate hedging strategy.

    @Shodan "buy high and sell low" is definitely not a hedging strategy though, is it?

    @endor I'm no expert on finance, but I'd definitely put it more in the "financial common sense" category 😅
    I guess that whether something is part of a hedging strategy or not depends on if you have something for it to hedge against (i.e. something that goes down when it goes up and vice-versa).

    Perhaps he has it confused with shorting it on margin? But perhaps I give him too much credit..

    Some standard issue stock market people wait for something to gain value prior to buying it then set a max on the amount they think they'll gain prior to selling.

    So they buy during a bullish rally at the beginning, then wait for it to be tested and fall slightly. That could be what he's talking about, I think
