Trading Bitcoins. BTCUSD

[lordalfa]

Hi,

Anyone into trading BTCUSD.

Granted the volume may not be enticing as FIAT currencies. But looks like a good pair to start. It is disappointing that most BTCUSD brokers do not accept BTC as a base currency.

Some brokers that are using Empty4 as a platform.

BTC-e
Avatrade

anyone care to list more?

There isn't a safe exchange with a charting platform.

I was using Avatrade for fun stuff. Placed a short on Manchester United, checked back 2 weeks later, price much lower than the entry@19 but the trade close out at 78. There is no price data at 78.

BTCe are run by an anonymous russian group. Also beware the spreads.

Brokerless exchange is in the works, I'd wait for that.
