   This site is a plug for Kraken, Misunderstands Prime

   The lowest trading volume tier is $1M-$20M a month -- totally different league. Also the fees start at .18% for takers and .08% for makers, quickly going down to near zero for institutions with large AUMs. Prime routes orders dynamically for optimal execution, including fees, so the largely made up notion that Coinbase is not competitive on fees is once again so far off, the reality is the opposite this time: prime is a highly competitive product for an important investor class from a trusted company in a space most institutional investors find confusing and perceive as somewhat dodgy. Are there other firms out there with the crypto nous and, crucially, the size to offer comparable products? This page about Kraken sounds great for individual/retail investors, though Coinbase Pro is competitive (but Coinbase isn't), but Prime should not be reviewed here. There's no comparing those kinds of trading services with those provided for retail clients.

• Withdrawing a large amount of fiat from an exchange

  I could be wrong though - it's worth looking into. But coinbase, who report to HMRC anyway, have an OTC - https://primebroker.coinbase.com/ - so it's not like "all OTCs are dodgy" at least. Source: about 3 years ago

• Daily General Discussion - December 14, 2022 (GMT+0)

  I've had good results with short term investments in alts. One of the methods I used was reading road maps on the project's site, and looking for major milestones. Often they'd pump as the update gets closer and closer. Then I sell a day or two before the milestone is reached. I'd sell it for bitcoin usually. CoinMarketCal lists events and updates, and it might make coin selection faster. Source: over 1 year ago

• How to use a scalping trading strategy?

  The cryptocurrency exchange rate reacts to the news one way or another, you just have to open and close a position in time. Earlier we said that it would be challenging for novice traders to work on a M1 time frame. However, from personal experience I can say that in this particular case, the M1 time frame is as relevant as possible. Larger time frames may simply not reflect the market’s reaction to this or that... Source: over 2 years ago
