Ethereum (ETH) Buying Levels - My Crypto Market Investing Strategy

Currencies / cryptocurrency Aug 17, 2021 - 12:36 PM GMT

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Currencies

1. BTC & ETH - My primary focus will be on building positions in BTC and ETH that will target approx 80% of my crypto portfolio, the balance spread between a number of Alt Coins such as Cardano and Pokadot.

2. Hold BUSD and USDC - In advance of buying crypto's I am funding my accounts (mainly Binance) with approx 50% of my target position size to as to capitalise on a high GBP exchange rate, converting into BUSD and USD whilst also correcting my initial error of holding USDT.

3. Place limit orders on approx half of the funds on account across the target crypto's in relatively nearby levels compared to the more distant levels i.e. BTC $21,500 and ETH $1400. Whilst my initial limit orders are far distant from the actual crypto prices as I am anticipating a decline in prices. However over time my orders will gravitate towards being nearer to the actual spot price i.e. over the next 6 months and where I could even be buy crypto at spot rather than with limit orders depending on what transpires over the remainder of this year due to various dynamics such as the Ravencoin halving due in Jan 2022 etc in advance of which I want to have a significant holding of raven coins.


4. INTEREST - With the remaining 50% of USDC and BUSD placed in short-term 7 day fixed deposits that earn 5.31% (APR) with Binance, re-evaluating every 7 days whether to continue fixing or place more limit orders with i.e. as crypto's begin to sell off.

5. Account Funding - As the limit orders are triggered I will then look to fund my accounts with more fiat.

At the moment my focus is on using Binance, however I hope to eventually be able to fund Coinbase so as to spread the risk between exchanges, else it is likely Binance will remain the primary means of building my crypto portfolio.

Crypto 1 - Ethereum (ETH) $2600

Ethereum will be my largest holding at 41.6% of my crypto portfolio. Why such a large holding of Ethereum? We'll because it is by far the most liquid and active in terms of developments, with so many layers it's mind boggling, that I can't see how any of the newer competitor crypto's can ever catch upto, especially given the eventual move to ETH 2.0 sometime during 2022. Therefore it is highly probable that ETH will replace Bitcoin as the dominant cryptocurrency.

The following chart shows all of my buying levels for ETH that range from a high of $2080 all the way down to $560, which is set against the current price of $2600. The chart also shows the area where I will be seeking to place most of my limit orders to buy at between $1400 and $600 i.e. I anticipate about 90% of my limit orders will be in this price range.
