been tradin ethusdt on bit1 for a couple months now. mostly spot. tracked withdrawals just to see.
usdt withdrawals (trc20):
all went through...execution is fine. limit orders fill where i set em. market orders slip a lil during volatility but nothin crazy...anyone else using bit1 for eth?
been tracking withdrawal times on my current broker (bit1) for the past 3 months. not promoting them. just sharing raw numbers in case anyone finds it useful.
the data (5 withdrawals via bank transfer):
observations:
execution context:
just sharing the data. curious what numbers other people are seeing with their brokers...
tracked every bit1 withdrawal over 3 months. wanted to know if they actually pay out or if the horror stories from other brokers apply here.
the withdrawals:
every single one approved. no rejections. no random document requests after the fact. weekends took a bit longer but that's expected.
means..the withdrawal system works. consistently. that's not something every broker can say.
spreads on eurusd average 0.6-1.2 pips during london. limit orders fill where they should. market orders slip 1-2 pips during news which is normal for a standard account...
for traders who prioritize getting money out quickly and without hassle, bit1 delivers. the data shows it. withdrawals are fast, predictable, and drama free.
Figured i'd share what i've noticed.
picture quality: most us channels are 1080p and look clean on my tv. uk channels are a bit softer but still fine. movies look good too.
buffering: watched football on sunday and had maybe 2-3 tiny freezes the whole game. each one lasted like a second. no major drops. for iptv that's honestly pretty good.
channel switching: takes like 3-4 seconds which feels normal.
epg: the main channels have guide data. some smaller ones are blank but i don't watch those much anyway.
setup: running it on fire stick with tivimate. it actually works....
honestly i was skeptical at first cause most ai tools sound robotic. but munch has been decent for repurposing my podcast clips.
i do a weekly show and turning hour long episodes into social clips used to take forever. now i just upload the video and it finds the good moments for me. takes like an hour to review instead of a whole day .
the brand voice thing is actually cool. it learned how i talk from my website which surprised me. captions aren't perfect... still tweak some stuff... but way better than starting from zero .
what works well:
what's annoying:
anyone else using it? what's your experience been like?
trying to sign up for apollo and they only take crypto. had to figure out shakepay just to pay. took me like an hour the first time ngl.
but honestly now that i'm set up, it's been worth it. way cheaper than cable and has way more channels. the yearly plan comes out to like $13 a month.
still wish they took credit cards but whatever. once you figure out crypto once, renewals are easy.
anyone else find the payment process annoying or am i just bad at tech lol
stopped trading for a couple months cause life got busy. logged back in and saw my balance dropped from inactivity fees. broker didn't even email me to warn me.
been using tag markets for a few months now and i asked their support if they have inactivity fees. they said no. so far i haven't seen any.
do you guys check for inactivity fees before signing up? also any other hidden fees i should watch out for?
started with Bit1 a couple months ago. honestly i made some dumb mistakes at first cause i didn't understand how leverage worked. thought i blew up my account but support walked me through what happened.
ended up not losing as much as i thought. learned my lesson though. now i actually read before clicking things lol.
withdrawals have been fine. did a small one just to test and it came through in like a day.
still learning but no major complaints so far. anyone else had a similar experience? any tips for a newer trader?
signed up for tag markets amplify account a couple weeks ago. for those who don't know it's like a prop account where they give you x12 leverage on your deposit.
honestly i just wanted to test if the payouts are real. did some small trades. made a bit of profit. requested a withdrawal and it went through in like an hour.
still early but seems legit so far. anyone else using their amplify accounts? how's it been long term?
posted here a couple months ago when i first started testing tag markets. figured i'd give an update since a few people asked.
been using them for about 3 months now with a small account. withdrawals still work fine. takes about 1-2 days. spreads are consistent. haven't had any major issues.
i know there's mixed reviews out there so i was skeptical at first. but my personal experience has been fine. not saying they're the best broker ever but they work for what i need.
using mt5 and copying some trades here and there. profits have been steady.
anyone else been using them longer than me? curious if things stay stable after 6+ months.
been looking at apollo tv to cut cable. trying to figure out if it's actually worth it or just hype.
pros from what i've seen:
– way cheaper than cable ($160/year vs my $200/month bill)
– huge channel selection and VOD library
– works on firestick, phone, tablet
cons i'm worried about:
– heard vpn doesn't work well with it
anyone here using it long term? how's the buffering during games? also did the premium club migration mess up your setup?
