I think the same. In a risky bet you bet and, if it's a casino bet, like a number at roulette, you know the result at the time. What can cause you more stress is betting today on a weekend game and also an amount that you shouldn't be betting, so it can be stressful. But in general it is more stressful to follow the price of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies all day long.

is this a trick question? isn't watching bitcoin charts all day the same as making a risky bet? they are both just as stressful. (assuming by "watching the charts" you mean day trading bitcoin)

Wow so far from my way of thinking.

Risky bets usually lose.

Investing in btc usually wins.

I very rarely hit risky bets.

I made money every year but 1 since 2012 doing btc investing..

With btc i do multiple hedging moves which lower risk a lot.

So I very rarely lose in btc investing.


Completely  different game then betting a daily double at the race track

I HAD 500,000 doge worth 1,000 dollars. If I hodled perfectly perfectly I would have  sold near 60 cents and grabbed 300k.

I sold up the ladder too quickly and grabbed about 80k profit.

Talk about stress that was stress.  IT IS ALSO WIERD  TO TURN 80k profit and feel like you fucked up a bit.

So even dca and hodl which is how I got the 500,000 doge can become a huge stresser if the coin takes off.

Generally, players who bet with leverage above 100x on BetFury usually wager just a few of $, they would never dare to bet, for example, more than 3 - 5% of the bankroll, unless they're a scalping expert, which is an extremely risky operation depending on how much leverage is on the platform.

From my experience, I've lost less with leverage than with casino games, and with Betfury Futures, what counts is your skill, now with leverage of 1000x, especially with a large amount of funds, a single movement in which the market goes against your position, you lose and are out of the operation.

I think wagering 1000x is an amazing idea for a gambling website (because 1000x leverage is gambling)

You can just put a few bucks or a hundred dollars and see that money grow a lot . You can win a lot, or lose just a few bucks.

I will try some day

It is not only day traders who spend their day watching the chart, there are hodlers with a lot of bitcoins who cannot take their eyes of the charts because they are worried of its movements, funny thing is that many of them are not even ready to sell irrespective of what happens. I remember when i was new to the network and had my first bitcoin, i used to be like that, looking at the price and what is happening, glad i stopped that and i am more confident right now.

Capital size makes sense as with bigger capital, your management is more stressful, and big hedge funds for example consider that their management is successful if they get small % in profit. With smaller investors, they don't see it as profit if percent is too small, as with smaller capital they want to have bigger profit percent.

This is still dangerous because you can think that you lose only 100 bucks, but if you continue this greedy bets you will lose many times and sum up your total loss can be very big after a long time. Finally it won't be better than the first example.

This volatility is really annoying, but if someone has time to trade and knows how to identify good entry points, they can make a good financial return. Unfortunately, this isn't for everyone and requires a few months of practice.

Another point is that such drops are excellent opportunities to accumulate more Bitcoin, if you didn't buy everything in a single purchase, right? That's why DCA is so attractive because, regardless of a bull run, Bitcoin always corrects at least 0.5 on the Fibonacci (a 50% or 60% correction), which helps keep the average purchase price balanced over time.

I don’t think it's necessary to use high leverage to be consistently profitable in futures trading. It's just a matter of studying technical analysis, chart patterns, following the market (depending on your availability, this can be a difficult talk) and operate with low leverage with around 1 - 3% of the total bankroll.

However, if you want to have fun and feel a bit of adrenaline, high leverage becomes appealing, and it's really exciting when the price goes  in your favor.
