Anyone trading with a rangebound bot will have made money in the last two weeks with these stagnant prices. The heavy regret for me set in later when my rangebound bot sold Litecoin and Ethereum before they tripled.

I buy bitcoin, it changes in value, I cash out, I now have a different amount of money than I put in. How is that not an investment?
My assumption here is that by "no-commissions" they mean that they're only making the bid/ask spread on transactions as a market maker?
Related, kinda: Robinhood seems to be pulling in a lot of different directions and there's all these "early access" features that never seem to actually, well, launch. I've now signed up for: * Web access (otherwise it's mobile-only) * Options trading * And now, cryptocurrency trading (because why not) and I haven't gotten access to any of them yet, even though Robinhood for web has been in "early access" for quite a…
