Bitcoin Forum

because forums bulls hate this type of questions :P

Never. Even when a better, more widely accepted currency comes out, btc will never be worthless.

Why do your poll options only cover the very bottom of the scale?

 ???

No doubt, my answer was $3500.

just to do the opposite other polls do that inclue only prices above current market price if ppl make poll biased on a way i can make also one

OP is rather transparent. He in some other thread claimed that he has "closed all his longs". Now he is trolling in hopes to affect the price. Try harder.

What's a panic sell?

If the price is going down, that's when I buy.

the question is for you not for me so i am asking you i dont ask myself at what price i sell


lol

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panic_selling

this is a very lengthy uptrend, so much so that many newcomers have only ever known the sunshine of the bull market, so when the real correction starts and the bear market is on us, they wont know it to see it, they will assume price will bounce back up like it always does after a very large sell off, after all, people will snap up the cheap coins right? only this time it sinks lower instead, and they wait... waiting for the price to recover... it will be interesting to see how low they let it go before they actually realise what is happening and get out.

winter is coming..

don't know when this will happen of course. so gl with that  ;)

At $10,000.00 and then retire :)

Iam thinking right around $700   8)

The voting result shows an obvious tencency. Many of us won't ever "panic" sell.

There is only panic buying.

At 10,000,000$ and then retire. :D

Never! When I sell it's always a calculated move. Also when I buy.

I'm guessing you have 0.3 BTC in your account... :P

I've made a greedy trade which cost me 5btc at $24, which could be classed as a "panic sell".
My stupid logic was as follows: 

1.  I'm so sure BTC will rise a lot very soon, therefore I must get more BTC, at all costs!

2.  I have no fiat to buy more BTC.  I only have BTC.

3.  I must quickly sell some BTC, even though I am sure it's about to go up, in the delusional hope that it will go down and then up.

Luckily I only sold a small amount and bought back in quickly.  I was actually physically ill at the time which compromised my judgement but I'm not making the same mistake again!  Just posting this in case it spares some other rookie trader from doing the same thing... (Apart from this, rest of my judgements have been pretty good though!)

Won't sell missing from the poll

lol, I think all the 0 votes mean "never."

I look at it in this way.... I invested an X amount of money that I knew I could affort to lose...
right now, I'm making close to 800% in my return... so EVEN if there's a huge PANIC sell, it'll take a HELL of a sell for me to actually lose money.
The way I think of it is. My gain is not realized until I trade back to fiat (USD) so to me, the BTC I have is equivalent to my initial investment until I decide to cash out.
If I cash out, I would make 800% of my initial investment, but why would I? I have nothing to lose anymore, and maybe A WHOLE lot to gain.
I'm sure many people are in my position due to the increase in price so, the question is, why would anyone panic sell when there's people desperate to buy?

I first bought in at $14 dollars after the first high of $30+ . I panic sold at about $7.
There really is a point at which you cannot take it anymore.
The higher the price at which you buy into a rally (or a correction), the easier it is for panic to suddenly wake you up at 4 in the morning and make you behave in crazy ways.
Most of us bought in cheap, and we can relax for a while - but there will come a point when emotions take over and we wonder how we are going to feed our children tomorrow.

I can relax all the way to $20 and I will still be making 200%
Do yourself a favor, if you can't take the ups and downs, stop following bitcoin, come back in 1 or 2 years and take a look at the price again...

I bought back in at $3 more substantially and have already taken out my initial investment - so actually I'm with bitcoin for the long term now (I voted 0)

Can someone make a poll for panic buys?

do you get charged by the character typed that you can't do it yourself?

There are no accounts in btc world.

I guess this pool question is based it's on the assumption that the price will tell us when something bad happened to bitcoin fundamentals.

Even a successful 51% attack won't make it drop to 20$

So you say...

LMAO, i will panic sell at 0!  :D

Never panic

You're going to have to pry these coins out of my cold dead hands before I sell.

Eh, I'll buy at each option on this poll  :)

Maybe panic sell arround 1000$, and not all those precious ;)


Serious correction ?  maybe from 300 to 100 !

I will sell at 82. Why, I don't realy know, I like that number and the profit is high...
I hope that will be soon, tomorow maybe?  ;D

I've got some 10 BTC waiting to sell at 100$ :p
thats about it... there rest i'm hanging on to unless i need to buy something.

Every time it goes up another $10 I panic and sell about 1% of my holdings. It's been a very panicy month!

LOL, that looks like Bear panic ( I'll add it's been a panicky year!)
The pole is aimed at the panic the short term Bulls are expected to feel.

IMHO the interesting observation with this poll is that 10% of the voters will "panic sell" (allready) at 65

This shows quite some nervosity. A week ago 65 was rather in the sky, and now it should be a reason to sell??

I sense a degree of contradiction is this thread. If you know the price at which you gonna panic sell, it's not a panic sale but stop loss.

Along the same line, if you are contemplating on the price you are going to panic, you are panicking and about to sell now!

interesting read however.
