Ripple (XRPUSD)

XLM was also down quite a bit yesterday. Bounced strong today.

Holidays can be quite volatile for some assets. I have only been paying attention to crypto charts for a couple of years, but that rule seems to apply to this sector* as much as any. If I were a market timer/trader of crypto, I would definitely have sold some of this on the way up (heck, I was still awake when it got to 90 cents), even before the Spark drop, and some more right after the snapshot was taken. But I have had my hands tied a bit by some poor choices, namely as to where I put the coins after I bought them. Thanks for nothing, Mr. Schatt! (Oddly enough, after Cred has its fire sale next month, that same rookie mistake will free me up a bit next year, and perhaps for all my remaining years of trading. Heck, I might day trade this stuff—and not give a dang about wash sales ever again!)

*what sector this is, I don’t know. The government does not seem to know, so how should I?
