Bitcoin Forum

I have been through this time and time again. We go through a dip and everyone is running for the hills or selling their coins.

The trolls come out of their caves and the panic nanny behaviour kick into action, triggering a massive sell off amongst the weak hands. <Newbies & Speculators>

I woke up yesterday and I saw the price was just above $9000. My first thought was, "Damn, I need to buy quickly, before this goes up" and I did. ^smile^

Most people woke up and the first thing they did was to fire up a browser and to read the comments of these trolls and media shills and consequently selling their coins in a state of panic.

The weak hands will lose money and the strong will thrive in this game. Hodl on people! <Buy the Dip>  ;D

i think its like that reason in investing you can be a luck or else your be lose so that game is like a sport you can win or lose.

Yes. It is the old strategy: watch what the herd do. Do otherwise and you will make money. This is in general, of course.

Gaining profit in Btc is like a gamble to most people. They place a lot of investments hoping they would have it back immediately. As an observation with Btc, it is important to observe first before doing any course of action. Making money with Bitcoin is not like you'd have youe money back with double or triple values. Observation and patience are one of the keys in earning from Bitcoin.

Infact this games play out February last year when bitcointalk.org fell from $1250 to around  $678 and in June when we have another dump from $1,657 to around  $950 and in September and October respectively and in most this cases the weak hand sell out of panic why wise traders hold theyou coins and even buy more. If you buy yesterday when bitcoin fall to around  $9,500 you should know that today you are now in good profits as the bull has taking over the market.

I know this gets repeated over and over, but that's probably because new waves of newbies have to learn the same lesson. Still, Bitcoin as an investment is extremely volatile, and they likely have never experienced such swings before. It's quite hard to blame them, especially the ones who have never really invested in any market.

You're also not the only one who thought about buying the dip, because pretty much everything recovered from their funks, and Bitcoin is back at $11,000. I don't take this as an indication that the slide is over, though, and I still think there will be tough times ahead both in value and transaction fees. I plan to keep HODLing on though.

That is exactly why trading or hodling bitcoin is for the strong minded fellow not for the feeble minded, when I looked at the price of bitcoin at $9500+ yestarday I remained calm having established the fact that whatever the case may be the price of bitcoin will surge high in  days ahead because price history always repeat itself I.e it is the nature or behavior of bitcoin is move dip and surge or rise.

Selling bitcoins when price is low is an example of how new users are so uneducated about bitcoins and its system. Well it is well said that weak hands and weak minds will lose money on this game, thinking before action is a must. No one knows when it will drop and rise and i also think that selling it would be a playing safe one than holding it because it might drop afterwards and cause to lose.

Mostly when one of us newbie saw the price of bitcoin goes down, our heart goes palfitate and nervous goes down to our nerves most of us sells bitcoins because it might not goes up fot a long time. But the strong hearted people just stay calm and watch the wave to stay calm. ;D

Well maybe newbies really need to learn from their mistakes to know when to sell and hodl their bitcoins. If they experienced failure and mistakes from their own actions, they will be able to learn from that mistake and  from that day on, they will surely know how to handle their coins, and maybe, they will also buy coins instead of selling their coins to earn more profit.

only those who don't understand the "game" call it luck.

in fact there is no luck when it comes to investing in something solid. yes you can say it is pure luck when you invest in an ICO or some shitcoin because there is no way these things can logically go up but they do.

but when it comes to bitcoin things are different. you can see the potential even though there are issues that it has to deal with. and in a solid market with lots of "real" demand price won't go lower than certain support lines, which happened to be $10k this time until it is increased to a higher level in next rally.

this is what i said yesterday when price was dropping:

sometimes things aren't really hard to speculate.

This shows that cryptocurrency investment/trading is really not for weak hands and fainted heart, being new to this industry is not an exemption because cryptocurrency is all about "money" and before we invest our money we should have know first what are possible scenarios that can happen once we put our money, if you have fainted heart you will just always end up selling your investment whenever there's a huge downward on cryptocurrency market and you will blame those trolls that said that it will not recover anymore. Stop listening to other people's financial advises on when to sell or when to buy, it's our money then we should be the one making our decisions.

That's right! Even the newcomers like myself who've only been around for 18 months (fortunately, this was perhaps the best timeframe of the last four years to view this) will have seen enough repetitions of this pattern to know not to panic. I always say that price doesn't really matter to me, but every dip has been a good period to bulk up, so in some way, I've been getting a little sadistic on these incredible drops, happy that every coin I earn now is worth that much more in the years to come.

One thing though, it's worth noting also that disciplined traders who have stop losses would have added to this drop. I can imagine those who bought in at 10 or 11k might have put a stop around 9500, unluckily for them triggered last night.

Yes that's also like me when i noticed that the price are going down i manage to have and collect some funds because for sure the price of the bitcoins will just repeat itself like last year the price goes down like 40-50% also and it increases in just a week.

Well said OP and the one thing I learned so far ever since I'm into crypto business is. Whatever happen always hold, don't panic sell and buy more when silly trader panic sell.

In this kind of situation there is no room for luck, because this is a pure decision of every holders. If you are well educated then you will see this market as a sale while on the other hand, if you are just depending on your luck or any speculation then you are on your way to loose money. Weak people will surely not make money in the long run because they will sold all his holdings every time the market dump, so you better start focusing on your knowledge to prevent massive negative impact on your portfolio.

Those newbies really have to learn it the expensive way. LOL. We have been preaching over and over again not to dump during dips, actually its the perfect opportunity to make profits long term. However, when panic sets it, their decision is clouded and the only thing they would do is push that sell button. Just wait and you will see a lot of them shouting that they have made the wrong decision of dumping it during the crash. Bitcoin is back above $11,000 now and looks like the rally is picking up. Better keep on Hodling and see your investments grow overtime.

Well, they were just influence through bitcoin plunge and too greedy either. Even if you tell the day trader how it works they wouldn't listen and now they have learn a lesson just like I did back in the year 2016.

In addition to what you said the strong mind can only win this race. Anything related with investment is always risk associated either you leave it or take it, it all depend on your mind and determination.

Yesterday was an interesting day,for some it seemed that it is day when all coins will go to 0 and like always there is a big panic which some smart people like OP are use in their favor and buy some cheap coins.What is certain that BTC and altcoins are not for people with weak heart and basic understanding how things work.Personally, I'm not surprised because people are in panic,a month ago price was almost 20 000$ and yesterday has sunk to 9000$,only the most faithful did not lose hope in such moments.

But as someone said,this was a good lesson for all newbies and for some older members-we are back today to almost 12 000$ :)

Completely agrre with you.
So much panic every time when the price goes down and it seems that no one isn't learning anything from it.
But yesterday it was extraordinary situation to make money, who bought bitcoin yesterday today had the chance to make almost 3000$ on one bitcoin. But most of users were just crying and complaining.

I suppose that many newbies who lost big are not even a member on bitcointalk. 
It's imaginable many of them just bought because they got a tip from a distant friend who said bitcoin is a safe bet.
And at the point when realized the magnitude of the downtrend, they went out. Exactly at the lowest point.
Maybe some of the new guys here had better luck. Hopefully at least some read and followed the advices the experienced members gave.

Cannot agree more with you, the trading game is only for strong people, weak minded will always make the moves that allow us to profit. If you believe in something just hold on to it, it will pay off later.

This market crash taught be a valuable lesson on BTC trading. On my demo trading game, I noticed my portfolio was down by a lot. And I fell in the trap of panic selling. That's not what you want to do man. Don't do it.

The best lesson to learn about crypto trading is to stay calm when the market dips. It's actually a good thing. Dips should be viewed as discounts as it allows you to buy your favorite coins for cheap. Once the market gets back to normal, then it's smooth sailing again.

Don't panic man. Trust me.

I agree.The more you see the truth about bitcoin,the higher the chances of reaching your goals through bitcoin.You have your own special ways how to make huge profit and definitely survive all its challenges.But people who sees bitcoin as an ordinary and less value always end up failed.They never tried harder to make their goals achieved so the result will be less likely to happen.

Can't agree more with you mate, that's why i'm still holding my bitcoins and altcoins since the crash happened. These pattern is same like 2-3 year ago, in january cryptocurrency crashed so hard and after that they start recovering for the next month. I'm sure cryptocurrency will back to normal soon.

Bitcoin are almost on -50% down but the dump is not yet finished. It was always dumping first quarter of the year as i observed.
Long term investors will enjoy the fruit of bitcoin in mid year.

Those who have the guts to hodl are doing it. You need to understand that people who have invested in crypto are humans after all. They have lives and get emotional - its perfectly natural and thus we cannot blame them for spreading the FUD. We need to differentiate what is FUD and what is real news.

Think of it if some friend told you about crypto and you without doing any research invested in it. Now the price dropped and thus they are panic selling. Whats new in that? Im happily closing the sites and going to sleep.

yes you are very right, if you can be more patient to keep your coin for years it will earn very much profit, so do not be weak holders who feel anxious to sell coin owned.

Probably inexperienced in the world of crypto in general. I don't even consider myself a pro in trading knowing that I still lose in the trades i make often, and can only get 5-10% profits per week. But I do know how to be patient and read a little bit of the markets, which took me to where I am right now. All my alt holdings are down, but in reality I'm already way beyond my initial bankroll since I still buy from what I consider "dips" in the market.

Isn't that the best thing ever :P Idiots, illiterate and people who are nothing but nescience sell of their holdings scared of getting a loss, I don't get why they want to sell at a break even point  ??? Like can you not have a little bit of patience, like ever? It ticks me off, not much but a little cause the markets go down and consequently it becomes a cause in trades. But at the same time opportunities appear to buy during the dip but if trades get distorted, the position to buy sometimes gets compromised.  :-\

What a great way to start the year right? I think this is just how bitcoin will show how much it will grow until the end of the year. The price will start climbing when it reach mid-year and will be of good fruit before the end starts. I can't say that this is how it really works but if you will be observant, you will see that people sell much near January for the holidays. This maybe is not helpful and a good way to start the year but we can't just stop people from doing it, its their own money anyway.

I totally and can't agree with you more. Backdrops on its market value is jist a part of the game when it comes on investing to Bitcoin that is naturally volatile. We should be awared of it. I don't really know whu there are still people being caught with this scenario which are those who chooses to sell just because the market value is falling. Surely it will be a regret for them seeing the market value of Bitcoin that is now recovering.

Thanks to these panic sellers and beginners the whales in market able to increase their wealth more and more.
Unfortunately some idiot traders bears huge loss in these panic situations, the saddest truth is that even after all this they (beginner/inexperienced traders) can't understand the market dips, these dips are not going to stay here for a long time.
To keep calm and control emotions is much needed in trading if you want to be a successful trader, else you can even lose whatever you have.

Yup, you explained it exactly. After been through a few decent sized dips myself now it doesn't even phase me in the slightest. Getting some buys on sub 10k bitcoin was a no brainer. Shoot even just look where it is today and it will probably be back up to approaching 14k in the next few days like nothing even happened in the first place!

Yes that's for sure. Those who are determined to earn huge orofit in the future will have a strong heart to hold than to sell whenever its market vakue is falking. The recent backdrop truly made most of the users here worried. There are lots of people who sold their Bitcoin those who did not will be surely smiling at this moment because its market value is now starting to recover so just HOLD.

History always repeat itself and so Bitcoin scenario too.  There had been thousand of scenario like this and the victim is always those who never do their assignment.  This dip is due to whales manipulating and not because of the news about bans.. Bitcoin had been there and yet it still here.  If they only knew that LN network is about to be implemented this coming first quarter.. they would have rejoiced that the price dip and buy instead of panic selling.  

I cant really argue on this matter because back into the days when I was still on that state on where I do easily fall out on those shills and tend to sell out because of my panic of sudden price decrease and end up on thinking why I did able to do such thing when I'm seeing the price had rise up again.I did able to buy on the dip specially on Bitcoin when it was just $9600 on its price and now its already 11,900 on preev.com which its an easy profits for you for a short period of time.

I am not convinced that the best way to deal with the high volatility of this market is to stand firm with the idea of "hodling". I think we should learn to play with these constant swings to increase our capital. Otherwise we are losing gold opportunities that only good traders are taking advantage of, while the "hodlers" are only observing the party from the outside.

This only mean that those who easily give up and discourage will not gain but those who are brave and have always hope, always positive will win in the battle.

Without weak hands there is no fun in this market. If everyone was a top tier holder, there wouldn't be a market at all. In some cases the panic reactions are a bit over the top, like what we experienced yesterday, but we just have to accept the fact that not everyone understands this market and its movements. In some cases it's even so obvious, that you more or less can be sure of being close to the peak levels, where you use that to secure profits. I did so too, and patiently waited for the market to correct, and it did. Not sure if the next attempt to break through $20k will be successful, but I'm sure we won't have to wait months and months for that. Sellers always buy back at premium levels.

It's quite funny really how you can probably read every thread in this forum and the two things you'll come across the most will be 'don't panic' and 'buy low, sell high'. Yet so many seem to be users of the forum and completely ignore all of that advice.

weak hands lose money but strong hands makes profits in this game because weak hands have a tendency to panic when bitcoin price drops where as strong hands makes profit in this game because they are patient enough to wait for the bitcoin valur to rise again and they do not panic..they strongly believe thay dropping value of bitcoin is only temporary

First of all congratulations to you, your mood is so smooth! Indeed, in the present situation, I think it is a very wise choice to buy bitcoins at a low price. BTC must be a bright future! It will also bring us huge profits!

Well, without losers, there wouldn't be winners... in forex, retail traders (that 95% that sistematically lose money...) are just called "plancton"... :-)

When prices are low, selling bitcoins is an example of how new users have no education to bitcoin and its system. Anything related to investment is always risky, and it all depends on your mind and determination, whether you leave or take it.

I even have a strategy for this, I call it my "SkyFall" strategy. You sell 50% of your trading stash when the price is high and hold 20% for this exact scenario. When people say, "The sky is falling", you have to be ready to buy. The 20% fiat is always available to buy these cheap coins, when these people start dumping. ^smile^

I have missed too many good opportunities before, to buy cheap coins, because I was not ready with disposable fiat, when the sky was falling. ^lol^

Yup that is right. Being part of a massive panic selling is only putting yourself in a bad position. We must learn that this kinds of market crash are only temporary as it is mostly planned and the point here is for people to buy their cryptocurrencies at a cheaper price. Many people right now just like me are selling Bitcoin at a high price before it starts going down. People who know technical analysis knows what I am talking about. And if the price of Bitcoin have bottomed out they will start to buy again in order to accumulate more cryptocurrencies in the process.

yes you are right only people who have a very high patience that will get maximum benefit, if the person is impatient or weak hand then he will not get the maximum profit, different if he has patience then he will get the maximum profit.

I agree earning in crypto currencies such as trading and investment requires patience and trust on what you have decided to buy and hold for those who got panic and sell their coins surely they will regret after few weeks or months because I'm pretty sure after this dump the price will recover and holders will have a good harvest. Crypto currencies are worth holding as a long term investment only if people will realize this

Well, we should thank to the panic seller, they make the price deeper and help us to have more profit.

Actually, its just a simple quotes us to make a profit. "Buy when everyone selling and Sell when everyone buying.

I really like this kind of question, i really accept today that I'm one of those weak  about bitcoin because i don't know how to make money with bitcoin , but i still studying and asking my friends on how to access by gaining bitcoin, i know someday I'm one of those people become and belong to strong hands, because i really believe the word, practice makes perfect.

This is explained in great way. This is what everyone should follow if we want to keep the crypto currency market as clean as possible. However there are huge pump and dump groups which works altogether and destroys the very first principle of the crypto work flow. They make every coin in the market very weak and over the time the effect can be seen the way we are seeing currently.

People like you and me who are the opportunistic in the first place will always go and buy more when the market is down. This actually create a vital support to the crypto currencies and thus we are the one who is becoming the backbone. But its not about you and me, we need millions more like this so that developers can actually focus on the real upgrades rather than getting stressed out about the market situation.

My mantra in this game : "Either I make profit or give out everything for free". You just shouldn't panic. Hodling is for firmer hands. Keep hodling,people.

Man we have inter related minds and we are not the only two who thinks this way. Panic sellers / weak hands or whatever you call them will certainly lose more money during this correction. We all went through this before and we are aware that it will be up again after a couple of weeks or months.

You forgot those calm ones and that's the secret in holding.
https://media.makeameme.org/created/thats-my-secret-xzjb2l.jpg

to do that is very necessary a tranquility but also must be done a continuous observation and of course sometimes in terms of investing with bitcoin that is when prices are rising as well as prices are down. I am aware for new beginners joining to invest in bitcoin, of course there will be a panic when they are facing a very drastic reduction in bitcoin prices but if he is able to continue to stay in the investment on botcoin I am sure in the end they will get a fortune . but of course it will not be easy to have such thoughts and experience is necessary because with an experience of course we will know about what strategy to do in following bitcoin activities.

Everything the OP said is entirely true. We must not get affected of the FUDs spreading across the social media and news. Hodling for long term and taking profit once you have achieved your goal is the best strategy during these bloodbath and massive sell-off. Emotion is unnecessary in cryptoverse investment.

It's funny how the weak hands are so easily panic when the price crashed and then sold their coins, I think they need to learn to stay calm and no need worry with it.

In other side the strong hands will get some cheaper coins and they are going to HODL it for a long-term until the time when the price burst and they will get much profit than the weak hands.

Always a classic song regarding this topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG1qooBzE2w

Yeah. In this kind of game. It is better if you have a strong hand. Dont give up early. Just Hold if you want a big profit. And also be wise and strategic.

<---------------- name checks out

Yes only those have strong hands and those who are ready to accept what they lose in the end are the one who will make profit in the. In some people this is like a gamble but this also a game of mind. Theres a time you can be all and there is a time to get low.

Yeaha weak hands will never win this game. Be strong holder. We all know if we have strong hands we will recieve a good profit, that it can change our life. So be a holder and be a good hand. Just relax and enjoy.

Well, whales didn't become whales by luck... winners are winners and losers are losers.

Yes, people are aware of that apart from the newbies. We all know that Bitcoin has experienced dips so many times, and still survived it. But one thing you won’t be sure of is how long the dip is going to last. People are afraid of how long the dip will last, so they withdraw their money and invest back when it starts going up.

Yes, you’re right, there wouldn’t be winners if there ain’t any losers. I even heard that these exchangers can even make some changes if they see that everyone is going to win. Let’s just say they don’t want to go bankrupt.

Its more like a gambling game that is sure that for someone to win, another must lose there is no two way about it. But losing does not mean everything I can lose 200$ from my $800 gain for someone somewhere to gain $200 on top of his own $6000 gain. That is the way it is desinged and how its going to be at least till the nearest future. Which part of the coin you want to be, now depends on the amount of risk you can take. Let the game continue.

Well, it's really easy to feel fearful, we're naturally more averse to losing that we'd even skip the chance to get gain something if the cost is high enough.

I haven't really been checking the prices to not get disheartened. It was at $13000 when I last checked. I guess people who got into bitcoin when it was playing around $20,000 are now pulling their hairs and probably even selling to "minimize" their "loss".

The people who profit the most will be those with flexible hands that can accurately pick when to sell and when to buy, whereas those with strong hands will come in second and those with weak hands will be a distant third.

Well, as in ordinary economy, big players eat the small ones. If you have a lot of money, you can recuperate the losses, and in general you have more options. Of course, small players with big mind don't fall in the traps...

Yes bitcoin is like a gamble you can lose or win but be observant it is really important to observe before doing any course of action.You should know how to handle bitcoins.There are issues that it has to deal with it.Some things arent really hard to speculate.Being new to this industry is not an exemption because cryptocurrency is all about money.Know how to be calm.Just dont panic because prices is unpredictable but in such time it make more good profits

True, to tell the truth sometimes I wonder if all those people that spread FUD are in fact bitcoin holders trying to scare away weak hands so they can get cheap bitcoin, I will not be surprised if that was the case, however I do not know what are they thinking those that sell for a cheap price, they are losing money on purpose by selling for a bad price, they should know that the only way to make a lot of profits is by holding for a very long time.

i agree buying bitcoin is not easy which is not easy to get the right timing to buy and sell because its always fluctuated. And as the matter of fact need patience on it and effort to gain more profits not to lose. So if you do some quick move without plan then there's a chance you will lose but if you're lucky then its good.  Haha but i suggest to make a plan before doing anything or learn some technical analysis from the market so that no worries about your profits.

Well, in any game the strong win and the weak lose...

Exactly what I tell my friends time and again.

Bitcoins have been running since so long and if it's gonna die or it's gonna take a lot of time. It's gradual not like someone just saw the price reaching 0$

Whatever Happened was sure to some whale selling off their coins and was backed off by the people buying at the dip, it's what makes it worth it, that's how it works.

The only thing is that I didn't have investment to buy Bitcoins but would have sure used up everything I had at that moment.

And I do think that the price won't go that down soon enough or maybe never.

Yes, it's called "natural selection", as Darwin explained...

if you don't have enough assets or are not willing to risk them, just try not to be in the losing part of the crowd because people are making huge money when the market goes up as well as when the market goes down

if you don't follow the advice senior members are giving out (no panic selling and stuff), you are among those who need to get burned by themselves in order to learn
good luck to everyone

Buying at the dip is good thing, people should learn how to control emotions and expect a lot of pumps and dumps because this market is very volatile. If you are new here you'd better start learning and focus on making money later on. Those who believe on this technology will surely making good money and will harvest all the hard work you put into it in the future.

yes that is true in the past i holding bitcoin when panic selling i sell all my bitcoin but it rise again i lose my money but now it like a strong hand i never sell all my bitcoins when panic selling i holding it when it rise again

True the one's who could hold their crypto while it's being dump are the one's who makes a huge profit when the price goes high again,
So the weak hands are really the one's who are losing their money.

If you look at the market this is what happened for the last years yeah . It is no guarantee for the future but i think it is still the best move to make. Coins need to have some time to develop.

The price dip was a perfect opportunity to snag up some more cheap buys. A lot of people panic at each downturn, but the overall movement has been bullish since the start. We’re already up 30-40% from the lowest bottom a few days ago, well on the way towards resuming the upward climb. This downturn may actually be beneficial in the long run since it gives a good buying opportunity to people new to crypto who would never have bought in at the 20k price range. The more people who start putting money into the market the higher the prices will inevitably go. 

The cryptoworld is a survival-of-the-fittest environment where only those who understand and are able to adapt the changes of it will survive and gain profit. If you will only learn deeply the concept of HODLing, maybe you are really fit to survive.

And these weak hands are feeding the trolls, always after a big drop in price like the one we have seen the trolls become bigger, fatter and stronger for the next season... There isn't reason for panic, people don't need to sell all their coins fearing to lose money. It just helps big holders/speculators to accumulate even more fortune, while the little fishes don't enjoy the profit they could enjoy!

What you were doing in trading and investment is perfect, the simple rule is buy when price is down and sell when prices are up and you're following the rule. As you said strong hands is nothing but the knowledge, patience and bit luck in Bitcoin or cryptocurrency market is the mantra for success. You're doing a good job and keep up the good work always, thanks for sharing your way of working in trading.

It's true! Many are blinded by the Dip and can't see the flooding opportunities? I mean, haven't they seen this scene few times already? Remember when BTC was just about 2grand and it sky rocketed to 20 grand in few months? If I have sufficient funds I would actually buy. Haha. But anyway, you just need a stroke of luck and a good amount of guts and you'll be on your way to riches.

Yes you are right many newbies rush into panic selling in time like this, when I saw the dip fall in the price of bitcoin little above $9000 I thought to my self this is the right time to buy more bitcoin because the dip fall only happen once in a while. But to some other people is the time to start panic selling in other to cut loses and at the end they end up loosing they money because they will still buy at a high price later when the price rise again. The best thing to do at a time like this is to be patience and hold your bitcoin for a while.

Yes, even me i don't know what to do if bitcoin starts losing its value, starting become doubtful whether i will sell my coins to prevent further loss or just hold it waiting for a price comeback. Last week bitcoin dropped for over 40% of its price compared to last month's price and i decide to hold it as many predicted that 2018 is the year of cryptocurrency specifically bitcoin.

Well, it's seems obvious to me: in any field strong players win and weak players lose!
In the last days, weak hands entered in panic and sold anything, so whale could make a very profitable crypto shopping.
That's life

It's always observed that the game is always won by the strong players not by the lose players.Histroy is always created by the strong players against the lose ones and it's always the strong one who have the will and the desire to make it.
Strong man or the wise one have the good ideas to make money than the lose ones.

Yeah right! Most of the time, those weak hands lose money because they are afraid that the price will not be able to recover and they would have to cut loss so that they will still have capital and then after a while, they are seeing the price slowly creeping back up and they just cannot believe with their decision and then have regrets. It would be good if those who sold are able to learn from that trade but then there are still others who still sold and still depend on their emotions when trading which is a big no-no when it comes to trading.

This is the rule of this kind of game. If the people will panic sell then they lose money and the strong hands will scoop those money and they will invest it into something that is really worth it like buying those dips and keeping that bitcoin until the price rises up then that is the time for them to just sell it for profit and repeat the cycle.

That's the rule of being a good trader, weak hands it means can't controlled the emotions then if having a dip price quick sell of what they hold instead they earned they lose their capital fund in trading. Strong hand for those people who willing to wait for bouncing back the price they hold for a long run and have huge profit at the end. Buying pump and dump with high valued coins are good and hold until you find out that you have a huge gained from investing in trading.

Different strokes for different folks. Whenever the market has any of red or green lights, it sends different interpretation to individuals; definitely because we are of different behaviours. So, good reason why the market will always be busy too.

That's true. We should wake up in the reality that holding can make us earn more millionaire. Because patience is the best we should have in trading.

And are you surprised about this? They have always existed, and i have been seeing this kind of people since i started to trade, for more than years.

It is usual in here, and i do not even like to try to advice them anymore because they all think by the same way.

yes even with a little amount of money as capital you can grow it to thousands fold! as long as you experienced enough and get used to make an accurate prediction , you could become the one who always make profit steady more than anybody.

the only thing will make you become a loser are when you too early get panic and sell it all at once to cut the loss.

I fully agree with the author that this case requires both Weak and strong hands. Of course, they earn differently, but it is the strong ones that manipulate the market with the help of the weak. .

I stongly disagree because in reality even you don't want weak hands or panic people in the market. These people will mostly attract innocent investors to become afraid and be infected to become panic too resulting to make the value to become crash down even more. If our coins are gathered by strong hands i dont care if we cant buy cheaper price anymore as long as my gaining is strong and stable.

Without dumb money, there are no active markets. On top of that, weak hands aren't necessarily noobs or gamblers. In different ways, everyone can at some point become a weak hand or dumb money. There is no real definition of the afore mentioned sides aside from one winning and a losing party -- we just call it weak hands or dumb money. But to use these common terms, if you happen to lose in whatever way, regardless of how professional or experienced you are, you're dumb money. The moment decides who can be seen as a strong or weak handed person. At some point we all have to go through this due to certain circumstances, whether people want to freely admit it or not....

Thanks for this obvious fact :D

What other teaching do you have in your pocket ?

I like the sentence that you made. Yes you were right. A lot of people are selling their coins because of their fear to lose profit especially those newbies in crypto currency trading. We cannot blame them if they think like that. The important here is we are the strong people here that will get a profit soon. Just don't mind those people who have been sold their coins.

Well, is just in the actual situation that you can check who deserve money and who doesn't.
To become rich is much more about to have the right mindset that any other thing.
If you don't control you emotions and you take decisions under panic influence, you just help real players to become more rich.

I really like the topic in this thread because what you have just stated in the title was really true to apply in real life situation when it comes to those users who have been tough enough to hold into their earnings and those who are weak in holding their earnings because they are tempted to sell their Bitcoin once they have seen it has pump already after a continuous dump. Well, we cannot say it is a success already because more opportunities are just soon to come to those who persevere in holding their Bitcoins.

yeah of course weak hands they gonna be lose. and strong holds yeah its gained the most profitable income. if you are investment in a coin like bitcoin its better to buy at low price now  hold at the future next year. promise you make big profit income.

people who have dreams must be hardworking and have a big big patience. they must conquer and face any challenges that is going through their journey. they have have strong physical, mental, emotional and spiritual being so that whenever there are challenges, they can conquer it and can stand strong, firm and chin up. weak hands can lose money if they do not know how to spend wisely and they can easily give up on whatever business they have. strong hands makes profit if they know how to deal with any struggles that may come in their way. there is no concrete solution on how to have strong hands, but at least we know that we must be strong in order to have courage. courage on taking risks for the better future.

will probably you have already lot of earnings in crypto trading specially now that we are in bear market. good job for strategy but this may only applicable if you have reserve cash on hand which you can bought when market behave like this

I strongly believe in this because in order to get profit you have to hold your ground and wait even if the price is tempting or fluctuating you have to wait because the bitcoin's value will go up and is guaranteed also, the impatient loses and the patient has the better profit.

This is a battle between traders, holders and investors, IMO. those weak hands are mostly the newbies that are easily shaken when they saw the market is at red candles and sell when it is at the bottom while those whales and the investors are catching up the dip and bag a hundreds or millions of pieces of a particular coins. Definitely those who knows the crypto rides will won and have that patience.

Well of course, we've been here for years and we saw the roller coaster ride and how bitcoin fought all of these. And this recent crash is just a small thing compare to what bitcoin went through so don't give your money to these big whales and just keep tight your coins for a bigger profit. Having weak hands in this kind of business will be no good for nothing.

You are right, bitcoin is not suitable for those who want to make money quickly
Here we need strategy, and patience
Especially about the fluctuations, those who panic will soon sell its shares when the price suddenly dropped
Essentially, patience is the main thing

Well, this is just a truism: in any game, strong players win and the weak ones lose.
Here it's not different. Please note that a big part in to be strong - out of skill and mindset - is to have a sufficient reserve of money to continue trading in case of loss.
And if you need money to eat, may be you are forced to sell when it's not the good moment.

Lol, I literally imagine the second line about the trolls haha. One must practice patience to hold and diligence to find reliable sources of information regarding the crypto they've chosen in order to avoid panicking and other unnecessary negative thoughts that may affect investment or trading decisions.

Those people with quick hands were investing without profer knowledge how volatile cryptocurrency was. They just hear it from social media and directly invest without doing research and no patience to hold and wait.

Uhm..  The op is right, it’s mostly newbies and some weak a** that does that. There are people who are ready to take the risks without caring. But you shouldn’t expect everyone to have patience, No! Patience is meant for a few people,. Without all these weak hands withdrawing their money, there won’t be a chance to buy in at low price.

Remember it is the survival of the fittest not of the strong, this is proven by the dinosaurs, they were the biggest and most dominant species but they were unable to adapt to a new set of circumstances brought by the asteroid that hit the earth, in bitcoin those that are unable to hold for long enough are eliminated from the market while those which have what it is necessary to do it are rewarded, the principle is the same even when the circumstances change.

This is the law of nature that it is not the strongest that is going to rule or survive longer but it is the fittest one, the one which is flexible enough to change with changing world and is always there to welcome changes. We all know that barking dogs seldom bite and same is with the investors. Patience is a virtue and it is highly rewarded by nature. Those investors who are really calm and supporting bitcoin are the ones that are mostly on top of the world.

Couldn't have said it better myself and worst of all is that some of these people blindly listen to the media which is the nut worst thing you could do. If you did that you would routinely lose 50% like some did on XRP in December what a shit show that was :D.

You are absolutely right, many people get carried away by the weak mentality, comments, but above all by the pressure of period articles, whenever something new comes up they already think about running to sell all the cryptocurrency they have and it is not that fair the best solution, you have to learn to have patience. Above all know that the market moves like this, as the waves of the sea that go and come up to create great phenomena. Then ... Those who are intelligent will wait, it is normal that at this time there is a lot of movement.

You are right on point. At every price level, someone will buy. It is the strong hands that are taken advantage of the dip.

Make Warren Buffet your model. Dont be worried if all crypto coins are going down. Treat it as a SALE! Always preserve a BTC in your wallet to enable you to average down from your trades if needed.

I completely agree with you. But is it any worse for you that you can buy cheaper? )) There will always be such people who will not stand it and sell all their crypto-currencies cheaper than pokpali, and then they will say: crypto-currency - scam.

Selling at a loss is such a weak decision, yes I understand that we need to cut losses sometimes but if its too much loss better to hold on it specially if that coin is bitcoin.  Newbies easy trade with their emotion and losses comes, you’d better know how to trade well on this kind of market. Strong hands will always be a winner because they believe on a great technology, they just keep on buying until it reach their target price.

Yes, that is true but if you are in that particular situation I think you'll be also afraid, afraid of being loss. If the bitcoin falls down, they said hold it. Yes, hold because if you wait for some days, weeks, bitcoin's price will back again. But when it reached your limit or the minimum price  (of yoirself) you will be afraid and some person will get their income and never hold it back so that they cut their loss.

You really have a point. It's really easy to say to hold your bitcoin when its price keeps on decreasing. But if it reaches your limit on how much you can afford to lose, I'm pretty much sure you'll feel panic also just like what every other people feels. And to those who badly needs money, they'll be forcedly to sell their btc even if they losses a lot.

Anyway, it is right to keep on holding your bitcoin as of the moment. If you still have enough funds, better buy some bitcoin. But if you badly needs money, don't hesitate to sell your bitcoin.

This is the main problems for us investors. To be honest, sometimes I am feeling to sell some of my bitcoins that I have when the downtrend begins but I tend to hold it instead of selling because I know that having a weak hands make me lose money. Strong hands make profit in this game indeed and I want to become successful someday so I need to learn this things.

thats the effect of those damn trolls to make a massive panicking so those weak will sell before they loss..and im not fond on this,when we are holding to keep bitcoin strong and they weakening the market by doing such action..better for them not to invest in bitcoin for the price will not have big effect whenever this situation comes

Yes that is right, they really don't know the main reason why they are here, those who withdraw their bitcoin and converted to money thinks that they have save money and earn some, when in fact they really not earn a lot instead they lose a lot of it and they are really weak of it as a lot of people are celebrating of the dip as they have the chance to buy more then a lot are panic.

Check the markets chart from last year, this is what happened . Buying cheap maybe for some can be an opportunity, for newbies its just the end of their trading adventure.

The historic patterns visualize it that in this months or days there are really tremendous dumps along with the big Fake news in the market to make it down. The people matters in this game newbies vs pros or we called whales in the market that wanted to dump the market and buy more. In this game most newbies are always lose and only those who knows the game sticks to it and make this as a big sale opportunity to buy.

It is very painful if we see the Bitcoin is in red because our investment is riding along with it to the dip but it we sell our Bitcoin it will just make things worst so to hold is the smartest move in which if price value rise up again from the dip it will be a glorious gaining once again. So hold on tight and keep the faith.

that is how to put it simply how to survive longer in this cryptocurrency world, but what matter is when the emotion hits you hard when you see your coin prices that you hold goin down real hard. like you said before, the weak hand will loses and the stronger hand would reap more bountiful fruit.

Weak hand people are not suited for this market because they will just get pissed and rage quit. If the market is hitting us hard and if the market is just keep on going down, don't panic because it is just a normal thing and we should be thankful to it because we can make easy profits from the easy pump and dumps in the altcoins.

Playing bitcoin the weak does not boldly lose money. The strong, the guessed are lucrative in this game. Not everyone has an accurate view of the bitcoin market. Bitcoin prices up and down often can also make investors drunk.

This is the reality. Most people thinks that once you invest in crypto you will always gain profits. We should educate and learn from here that this is really happening a big downfall. If you're a weak hands you will be a loser and always a loser if you will not learned from this experiences.

are you sure that it is really a downfall? What if bitcoin is really a bubble and its now slowly popping until the value became zero. weak hands doesnt loose money all the time , infact they also earn a profit whenever they sell their coins to early and theres nothing wrong about it rather than being a smart because you only secure your potential profits away from the danger of volatility and posibility of being a bubble. Overall , its better to be safe than sorry.

Weak hands loses and strong hands profits. This is the truth in any investment game.. not just in crypto.

Whether it is stocks or property, time and time again we see the winners emerging after several years when it is proven
that they were right to have bought it at the low when everyone else is selling.

At this moment, when BTC and all crypto are selling down, the key question to ask is whether BTC and crypto will be at a higher price than today next year. if you believe in the fundamentals of crypto, then the answer is yes.

Crypto is already disrupting many industries and have demonstrated potential to disrupt even more.. so their value cannot be disputed.
If their future value cannot be disputed, then their price in the future has to be higher than today.

So hold on tight

Be greedy when others are fearful and be fearful when everyone is greedy I believe in this quote, and I will follow it, It is normal for bitcoin to deflate at low very rate, because lots of countries regulate it, but someday it will go back to normal, just be patience don't let other people scare you, they tell things without basis only theories that nobody know where to go.

I will just hold my bitcoin and hope that it will increase again and if that happens I will gain a good profit because I did not panic and I have patience to wait.

The business has its own beauty, you have to experience its ups and downs so that it also builds in you the other qualities necessary to carry out your life and patience lies above all them.

It is not considered a wise act to just see out all what you have just because the market is not good for that particular time period, you need to have patience and patience always pays you. One must be able to see the long term benefits in order to be successful.

Bubble? Seriously at this point you still believe that bitcoin and crypto is a bubble? With the number of people backing bitcoin from whales to smaller fishes, it may go down in value, which can even be manipulated to some extent, but never lose value. Its not being too smart investing in something you have no idea about and if you've studied about bitcoin, you'll know that this is far from being the end of it.

I believe in this saying that weak hands loose money while strong hands make profit in the game ,as we apply this saying to a game,If somebody has weak hands he will lost the ball  while somebody has strong hand catches and keep the ball ,as to bitcoin owners the strong hands keep the coins in their hands until such time it will have a high value  and time to gain.

Many people say that weak hands loose money, maybe or maybe not,  we said that they sell in low price, maybe because they need money they tried to hold it but they can't do it, I think that is the reason why they sell it in low price it not because they are new in this business.

Yes, many people are really losing money because they don't have any idea what they are doing or just are afraid enough in taking risk so for me it really takes courage if you want to become successful in your life, if you really aiming something then for sure you will make profit at all times by taking risks.

Human emotions may really affect our decisions, even though we've thinking to hold but something there is someone pushing me out. This is could be some reason that people can't even control their emotions and just go selling even in cheap price. Absolutely, we can't blame them for the reason than they are making their own way. But maybe a simple advice may weaken up their blinded thoughts about the reality of cryptomarket.

Cutting your losses only makes sense if you realize you made a mistake at the moment you invested, for example there is no point in cutting your losses if you invested in bitcoin since it is the best cryptocurrency around, if you cut your losses in bitcoin you might as well never enter this market again and invest in other markets, but if you invested in an ico and you realize you made a mistake by investing in it then it makes sense to cut your losses so you at least recover some of your money.

Yes this is true. In crypto world or even on stock market this is what the investors do. They buy stocks when it is low, most specially when they see the potential of that items or stocks. They are not seeing it as a lost. They are seeing it as a opportunity. Opportunity to buy.

Yeah.. Is just like our desires in decision making if we have  weak in decision making then it will lead us to be a looser. just like what happen in last few days bitcoin incounter a massive problem. The price of bitcoin is rapidly going down. And many bitcoin investor panic selling there bitcoin in the market in a very low price. Because they think that bitcoin connot recover they don't have any patience at all. So if we have a strong faith and motivation we have to be patience. so that is the right way that we gain a winning.

Of course we normally take that opportunity because not all the time it will goes like that.  This is the way investors have chances to risk and be profitable in the future.  Knowing that crypto market  are really in huge difference from real stocks exchange and closed monitoring on the market trend really in big help for us.

I invested some bitcoins back in janurary. Saw it dropping too much. Tried to buy low n sell high. Kept losing money so I stop holding . now Feb I can actually buy 1.8 before i can buy .85 btc . I'm still not holding though ran out of money n holding alts. I would be sad if I had held through Jan n Feb. That word diversify saves plenty.

such a great words mate,this is what those weakhands to learn the fundamentals of being here,that this is not just to invest and profit instantly,this cryptocurrency worls has lots of sides and we must learn to ignore some instances to stay strong.not because someones told you is true most of post here are just a created story to favor them.


well i guess youre an experienced user,you know what you are doing and just continue that way and i hope youre .85 btc now will be double before the end of 2018 since many says this is the bitcoins year

Definitely this is our chance to buy the chance to invest in bitcoin as much as we could. Yes a big difference from stocks into crypto market but when you enter the world of crypto we should the know the risks in case market may fall that we didnt expect it to happen. Since crypto is volatile we should not panic in this down trend so only those weak hands will really in lose than holding and fighting to face the big risks will totally in huge profit at a later end.

This is a loss for those who have no patience.

The strong hand made a profit in the game because they waited patiently for the value of bitcoin to rise again, without panic. They believe that the price of bitcoin will rise.

Yes, it's true   weak hands lose money,  If our hands  stop doing  so it's impossible to achieve our main goal. Much better to practice our weak hands to become strong intended for our main goal until to become successful.

There is always a people who make mistakes because of their emotions and we don't judge them but teach them to hold their coins because it may become valuable in the future and don't listen on the other opinion about the coin but making own research and study is very important.

Indeed, and now i think another challenge is starting to be meet again in which the market is now all red once again. I just hope this is not another correction because for sure many weak hands will still going to emerge and  a panic moment once again.

Be more knowledgeable when it comes to investing or trading. And be calm dont just panic whenever something happen .Just wait and hold your coins and when it needed and when the value will increase thats the time.you can sell it.

When it comes to trading, weak hands means they are the one who are very emotional and does not have patience when it comes to holding coins they are easily emotionally get moved when the price are fluctuating to much and sell their coin right away. Strong hands means they are the ones who are being patient and can handle their emotions and sell their crypto when they reach the price that they want.

Firstly, what is your definition of "weak hands?" I think you are using the term loosely.

These kind of traders are mere speculators. They only base their decisions on speculations--if the price increase or not. These are not investors per se since they quickly let go of their assets.

In any game weak people lose and strong people win. This is absolutely normal, it's called "natural selection", and it's the key to the evolution: in an endless competition, the standard become higher and higher, and this means that the players become better and better.

Talking about trading, it seems that the only strategy known by "last hour investors" is "to buy and to hope that the price increases.
Of course it doesn't work, as we saw in last weeks, an this is very ok: now a lot of bad players are out of the game, and who survived has learned something.
That's life.

What happens about that is experience. Experience is not bought in the market rather it takes some time to be acquired. It really shows in times of difficulty to make decisions. An investor that has an experience in the business of bitcoin understands how it is going more than someone who is just learning the ropes.  ;D

Sorry for me, i got a weak hands (before). But i just need to sell some due to holiday season. But now, i really have to think twice or maybe a hundred times before selling. I balance everything, i always think about the future might i have if i will not to sell in a snap. But, sometimes when i see the price of cryptos i am holding in the market is declining i am in panic thinking if this will continously go down. And these weak hands is starting to arise again but still i tried to hold my self and stop it immediately, as long as i dont need it or its not an emergency i will still hold.

Weak hands lose money, strong hands makes profit in this games.
Newbie and unexperienced traders and holders are afraid to lose their investment. So when the price go deep, they panic to sell their coins. While those who believes in bitcoin take this opportunity to buy.
Always consider lot of people participated in this business. There is no way they will let their investment go away. Big time people who hold bitcoin will always find a way to help bitcoin recover when it go deep.

Thats how this game works a trading will not be profitable if there are many pro traders or whales than newbies. Furthermore, newbies make whales earn and when newbies get equip with their experience its their turn to make money in newbies also its a cycle and thats trading. In addition to the big people who have a lot of bitcoins they help to dump the price to buy and they let the price rise with the good news coming weekly about bitcoins.

Bitcoin's price has proven over time to be volatile thereby defying odds; the best insurance one who wants to make money with Bitcoin is to have a reliable reserve of fiat.
The weak hands are mostly those that can't afford to hold during the dip because they needed fiat at that moment, so they have to sell at a loss; anyone not prepared for a dip will likely be caught up in that situation.
In conclusion the weak hands don't have a reliable fiat reserve while the strong hands have fiat in abundance which allows them to buy in the dip.

Those who can hold are strong!

They don't panic selling because of price collapses! They are confident that the BTC will slowly return to $18, 000!

People who sell can run into financial problems, and I'm sure some rich people will hang on to their digital COINS!

That is the cycle of the trading and the market of the cryptocurrencies, the whales are more beneficial than the newbies since the newbies are still in ignorance but it will not be for permanent because they will learned the right way through their experiences. Newbies should just keep exploring and gathering information to improve themselves.

That's probably true because those who got panicked and sell their crypto assets at a very low price means they are losing. Not unless if they already have their ROI before they sold it at a losing price.

I just learned that the value of bitcoin will rise and sometimes low. So, we must be patient and observe before taking actions. We must be strong and wise in our decisions.

There are many people who have weak hands when they are trading their coins, people who have weak hands are easily panicking and it the reason why they are losing their money. People who have strong hands are the people who are becoming successful trader.

Yes. Weak dont make profit, why? Because they're afraid of taking chances or risk. Dont be afrsid just becaise you might get scammed or your invedtment might be gone. Think positive and research the stuff you invested in. Be strong and you might earn what you deserve.

There is a big chance that you can lose your money if your hands are weak. It is really good if we are brave enough to trade our coins. Always think positive for you to perform good trading skills and it can leads you to make more money.

As for me, it is about the lazy one who refered to weak handed who loses money. Yes only those hardworking , determined and positive thinker who refered as the strong handed who earned the most profit. Thus we must exert more effort
in this field to be able to gain the most profit. Thank you!

Those who knows how to hodl will probably reap the fruit of their patience during the times when bitcoin and the rest of cryptos are down. I wonder how those people who sold their cryptos when bitcoin is down feel today especially that bitcoin is starting to pump again.

Yes as this saying you have to secure all your money and you have to be smart when you go through transaction of bitcoin.   And tgey say that strong hands make profit be more wise and you have to think first before you will going to sell  and hold until it goes up.

"The weak hands will lose money and the strong will thrive in this game. Hodl on people!"
I agree, 100% on this, please don't let Fear Uncertenties and Doubts push you to panic sell, you will just lose your coins worth plus add to the dump.  When the market is red, just buy and hold, don't let some trolls use you to add salt to the wound. Be smart, strategic and strong.

The core of the investment is to be patient, when we see the price drop then do not ever panic and rest assured that the price immediately skyrocketed because bitcoin since last 2 years like this and of course with strong hands then we will be successful and become a millionaire.

We should all learn from the past of bitcoin where it established a good history where we could take as are guide on deciding on our holdings and investment with bitcoin. It is much better if we are going to deal with a connection and a trust to the system of bitcoin where we could keep on supporting it as soon as it developed and become better and better each day al throughout the year.

Those are people who are very weak or I may sy that they dont know how to manage their money it will never earned bigger amd never been experienced success in life but if you are a strong hand which you can be able to handle your money properly and soon will experience succsess.

Well it's been laid out ever since that btc price moves up and down due to corrections and speculations so i'm not sure why a lot of people panic sell at all. Especially if they got in at a higher price. These people should be the ones hodling because they're the ones likely to lose more money. That's why its important to know what you're getting yourself into.

Its all about tactis and busieness policies. The one with better policies will get better profit

A risk is approved if taken cautiously. Sometimes investors are risking with no thinking prior the investment. I cannot earn anything without not doing anything - That is true! Problem with the risk is that the people are often investing everything they have into coins that they are certain will bring the profit but this everything is often wrong because investors must only invest the money they can afford to lose.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That is why many investors are considered to be weak but actually, they act very smartly because they are investing their expendable money. Those who risk all can get lucky but what if the things go wrong? Who will cover their expenses then?

Its not just a game but its a gambling world and so its basically dependent on luck

Yes this true but the best informed investor is the most profitable investor.  As an investor we should challenge ourselves and be equiped in everything. Every information and datas are needed in this business is important in order not to lose.

I think in every business you have a success. Sometime you can lose it. But of course it's on us how to handle the money so we can make more profit on our investment. 😊

lol, agree with it
something like that i think that depends on luck itself
doing some profit sometimes need time and luck too

Yes I think you are right at this point

Can you first clarify me whats  the literary meaning of it?

It's like an old strategy. It all depends on patience and proper observation, investing in bitcoin is not as easy as turning our palms.

You are right, bitcoin is not suitable for those who want to make money quickly. Here we need strategy, and patience. Especially about the fluctuations, those who panic will soon sell its shares when the price suddenly dropped.

Well, only huge investment can survive but to those who got financially problem can selling their coins so that they ease of life. Just like the old days, if we aftermath these prices just kepp holding your coins and buy more if you have extra.

Yeah if you are strong enough to hold and buy more coins when the price is falling then you can make lots of profits from crypto currency investment.But the newbies investors are failed to take the risk and end up losing all their money.The people who are afraid when the price is falling they need to turn back the history prices of bitcoin surely it will recover from the price crashes.So be strong enough to hold your bitcoin at the time of price fall.

Well, in any game weak players lose, strong players win, This is the reason why we call them "strong".
So, instead to complain, ttry to become a strong player.
It has nothing to do with money or skills, you just only need to build the right mindset.

We often take trading and investing so simple that we don’t put our best to learn how and what to do in such methods so that best output can be obtained. Like you have said, it is an old strategy where if you keep patience along the way, results would be better in your account. Else, only loss and disappointments would be your fate and you would be regretting your whole life.

In hodl we trust! However, that's not the best idea to be so smug - that can play tricks on you   :-\

Of course weak hands lose money. If they didn't, they were strong, not weak...

Things that happen today will cut off their view of bitcoin that considers this investment can make them rich suddenly. The reality they have to face is to look at the price crash from $20k to $ 5k and that's not a good thing to look at for a beginner/newbie, but a big disaster they have to deal with. But if they take a lesson from what is happening right now, surely they will become a reliable and experienced person towards cryptocurrency which in turn produces the desired profit.

If you have weak hands that means the money you invested in crypto you cannot afford to lose.
If this is true for you, you are already violating rule #1 of crypto. Which is never invest more than you can afford to lose.
Then there is something called do not trade on your emotions.
During the recent dip I saw my portfolio drop by 50%. Which is one way to look at it. But it is still 300% up compared to the last time I experienced a 50% drop which was around  September- October 2017.

Tip for the more experienced people here: compare your portfolio ATL with previous ATLs and I think most of you will still see a decent increase. It will definitely help your mental state during dips.

First, if there are no weak hands, there won’t be any strong hands or standing hands as you said. If everyone decides not to panic at all and stay strong without withdrawing their money from cryptos, I don’t think it will be easy for anyone to make profit at all from this.

This is market, and your main plan is to buy at a lower rate and then sell when the price is high. If people don’t sell out, then price won’t fall at all, and you won’t get an opportunity to buy in at a lower rate.

Simply who can control their emotions while the price is falling can win this game, people still things that bitcoin will end that is the reason behind panic selling so the smart investors need to use that time and make money with the condition.
Always remember buy low and sell high is the only way to make more money.

Before investing in cryptocurrencies, you have to fully educate yourself first by gathering all the necessary information. Those so called weak hands are investors who are unprepared and lack the needed knowledge in dealing their cryptocurrency investments. They easily give in to panic selling when price crashing down without realizing that it will bounce back again in the future. Crypto investors must have also an effective mindset to become successful in the future.

Definetly,it is a good advice,that everything just not making a rush decision,when you are in FUD  feeling or emotion,because if if you are in the state of uncertainty  this means you are not  in a proper decision making in your investment either you Hodl or sell it in a low price,so this means that weaks hands is define in panic feeling thats why you decide quickly to sell all your coins in a low price,and strong hands means that you have a strong determination thats when holding your investment someday you fly to the moon.

Strong Hands means, you are not afraid even the bitcoin price become lower. Also, the strong one will earn someday and believer will be bless. And in Weak Hand, this people afraid to lose and risk their money.

op does not asked for explanation,he wants opinion lol..but your right,the weak hands are  those people whos easily afraid even when the price drop is just low,thy sell instantly when think being loss,but strong hands are us,whos not afraid of dip.and besides being happy when this happens.because for sure we can buy bitcoin again.

yes i think thats true and its likely a weak mind can lose a strong body and a strong body can carry a stronger mind so if you don't believe in your self you didn't do the things that you want to do!

weak hands will panic sell when prices are dropping, and they end up getting a loss. strong hands will always be hodl despite the drop price, and they even dare to add more investment. and they will benefit greatly.

Yes, Strong Determinations is very important especially when we are dealing with our decisions and strategies in investment. Just like holding our crypto coins.  Sometimes we lost our hope when we see the price of cryptocurrencies dumping, we are very affected by this situation. We try to panic selling, without even think that we lose our money.  

It is all and all your personal thinking and your will power to face any kind of risk boldly which make you either weak or strong. If you are not storing enough from inside that you can face tough situations boldly, then there is no point of investing your money as eventually, you will end up losing your money and that is not at all a good thing to do. If you are strong and can control yourself, then you can achieve anything in your life.

I would have to compare the hands into the personality of a person. If we have weak personality, it is not impossible to lose money. For sure, with the weak personality we have, we will be shy and timid to grab opportunities that surrounds us. While if we are strong in personality, we are sure to have more profit. More opportunities to earn and gain. Because having strong personality is one way to have power and have impact.

I don't think I can say it confidently because the market of btcs aree always fluctuating and cant be determined exactly

indeed. very good sentence. weak hands are mostly the ones that sells in panic in even a very small decrease in the price or can not wait at least a few days till market recovers. winners are always the ones that can hold as long as it is necessary.

Yes its an old but proven strategy, I must say holding is very efficient and most failures in the investment world of cryptocurrencies comes from being impatient and sudden actions to cut their losses or just sell for minor profit. That is why investing to cryptocurrency is not a race on who started first but a test of patience on who will last.

Ah it is this time again , people are panicking that they didn't x10 since they entered in march. Just hodl your shit and in the end you are probably up a good amount , but they don't seem to understand that they may have to hold it for longer then a year.

For this reason only, experts often advise us to make better personality when coming into this world. This personality can be groomed by enhancing different qualities and attributes within us that would be fruitful for the results. Like you have said, if someone don’t have strong personality that he can’t control his mind, how can he make best out of his investment? So be strong with mind and hands too.

Bitcoin is a good investment if you have patience in holding it in, since Bitcoin investing is something that is good in a long span of time and you will get the profit you want in a long period. Some investors sell their Bitcoin right away when they see a little downfall in the value because they think that it will continue to fall down. While they're doing this they lose the profit they almost got by holding the Bitcoin till the price comes up again, this is often done by beginners.

I totally agree with your statement. This market is a great test of a person's patience and character. Only the ones who are capable enough are able to make money from this market, while the rest end up with losses since they either invest at the wrong time or they exit the market in panic.

Always a strong one who has the will and desire to make it happen. Strong people or wise men have a great idea to make money rather than lose and notice that the game is always won by a strong player not by a loser.

But that's not true every time, one should adapt according to the surroundings. If you are exceptions are too high you might eventually get nothing in your hand. This is crypto and is totally different from other commodities like gold and share here coins like doge-coin from which people expect nothing can skyrocket. So, things are quite different in this place and one should buy and sell at right time to gain more profit.

I don't think I can say it confidently because the market of btcs aree always fluctuating and cant be determined exactly

It simply means that those who are hard working can get money while those who don't like to work or lazy people can't get money. If you are a member in bitcoin you need to be knowlegeable enough to do the job right because you can't share what you don't have.

Indeed so, if people laze to work hard surely the result of his work will also never be maximized. Because he did it only half-middle. Unlike the people who work hard and a maximum of the results will also be very satisfactory.

Wise decision making and brave characteristics are needed in this type of game. Doubts and Hesitations arent needed for investing in bitcoin arent always giving you high profits but then also gives you much headaches for sudden happenings.But then, if you have passed all this and came up with a good price,  all will be worth it.

So it was always and so it will be for a long time. Perhaps, except for the last time that bitcoin in the event of a major panic can completely depreciate and people lose confidence in it. However, the rest of the crypto currency, which will not grow so fast in price as bitcoin, will exist and develop for a very long time.
However, the crypto-currency market is really special. In working with the crypto currency, you need a lot of patience and knowledge of its trends. Here, unlike the stock market, the large price drops of the crypto currency are not terrible, it is restored quite quickly at any price falls. Every time this happens, nervous people sell their coins and tokens in panic at fairly low prices and, losing their losses, leave the world of crypto currency. Those who were calm about such a fall invariably won and were waiting for new much higher prices for their crypto currency. This is a natural process and it will happen for the time being, people for some reason learn little from other people's mistakes.

I would say inexperienced and experienced. Most people enter the crypto trading game without doing refined research on the matter and just expecting profits ASAP. Some even go all in with their savings and expecting double in return. They got bad information regarding cryptocurrency but would eventually learn once they fail a few times.

I don't mind some people hand whether their grasp are strong or weak, but I think the most crucial is how individual think and make decisions base on the things they have read , saw, or heard, if they get affected and get stress then their mind set are not good, but if they think that some problems is like an importunity to strike then they are people with a mind of a fighter. They make their own next step to gain more cryptos.

Those people with quick hands were investing without profer knowledge how volatile cryptocurrency was. They just hear it from social media and directly invest without doing research and no patience to hold and wait.

If you really want to earn or make it big in trading, you must have strong will and determination to hodl your coin for long term goals. Panic selling are for the weakest investors who are just speculators, the tend to react when the price of bitcoins are going down. Afraid to loose but end up big losers, since volatility of bitcoins are very much present nowadays. If you hodl for a longer term, each drop will be paid off when the right time to sell sets in.

This is sure, weak hands and dumpers who panic everytime the price go down, sell their coins and tokens with the cheapest prices usually and this way they are losing so many opportunities to make good profits.
In the other side, people who have patience, long term holders and strong hands make the biggest earning possible in the crypto world.

Its just a logic when you have the courage to invest big amount and had a good project you can double or even triple your money but when your poor and dont have that big amount and also afraid of what will happen then you can have small profit.

Those people who invested has a very fighting spirit that they will earn, most of them become successful of other attitude of being optimistic. Those people also plan for good strategies that is why in every decision they made becomes always right.

This is the reason why people shouldn't invest money they can't afford to lose. Cryptocurrency investment is a game where you play for luck. It's volatility consistently helps gain and loose investors which is essential for the market as well.

Yes big hands earn more. Let's imagine this, a person invested 1 million worth of btc today and he immediately sold it a day after with only a 100,000 worth of profit. It may be small for the amount he invested but he still had profit.

We need to keep on improving our skills and develop our knowledge to get enormous profit, we can say its difficult but through our strategies and efficiency we can still success in investment. Keen to learn more so that may able to earn good moneys with our own.

I agree only strong hands can survive and can benefit, and for weak hands will not be strong, because it would be easy to panic and will be panic sellers.

Doesn't matter , as long as you have a good money management which it could make you survive against those people with "strong hands" , that's the key in my opinion.
And that's true when you put the money that you can afford to lose , you'll don't have to worry about get dumped. Just buy and wait for no matter what as you'll think nothing to lose.

Indeed. I truly agree with it. In this type of currency we are into right now which is already in digital approach that was widely innovated compared to the regular currency we have since then, it is obvious that the common characteristic of currency which involves the pump and dump that turns into hype because of being digital so anytime, we can experience a real large changes when it comes to the value we are currently holding so better to be wise on spending it for good that you will be sure to give you a lot more chances to gain and avoid spending too much for things that are just for temporary usage only. Better to keep your hands tight into your holdings so that when price hike turns out, you will also benefit with it and just avoid doing panic decisions as well as panic selling so that you will not make other people suffer in rising up the demand at the low price of it.

That is the reality in trading, it is just like a survival of the fittest, those who has a great personality and willing to take risk are the one who are making money here, especially in trading, and those who has a weak heart and are giving up immediately at first try are the person who will regret at the end of the day. 

Yes its true weak hands just like weak actions,investing is a risky games to all users of bitcoin that may not know yet how to handle their coins,but  with a strong hands and determinations surely know how to play this kind of game that makes their bitcoin more profitable.

I very much agree! Those people maybe thinking that once someone became rich through bitcoin, that means that it is already very easy for them to become one. Well, it is also important that we learn to have research before taking any risk for the safety of our assets. We need to be focused ad learned. We must be wise so that we can apply it on our future trades.

There are a lot of people in the market who did not really know how to trade or cannot handle the pressure when the market price is decreasing and because of that, the price of bitcoins is dumping even more due to people who keep on selling their coins when the price is melting.

Maybe yes, weak hands lose their money while strong hands make profit in this kind of world or game. Why weak hand lose, if you can’t take the pressure that bitcoin’s cost is unstable that this time bitcoin’s cost is decrease and you can’t afford to lose your money I’m sure you will sell your money because you don’t want to lose a massive money. But if you a strong hand you will understand the thing you enter and what game you are playing at, strong because you can take the pressure what is happening and keep playing this game that like you plan.

You can't become successful trader if you have weak hands. Traders should not do panic selling even the cryptocurrency market goes down. We should be brave always for us to make profit in trading.

I agree, you need to remain calm, do not make emotional transactions on the stock exchange, always carefully analyze everything and never give in to panic

Somehow you are right, it is true that you have to feel the right moment when to buy or sell cryptocurrency, i don't know if it can be explained in a few word but all i can tell is that is not an accident, everything is knowledge.

I agree. It's good for Bitcoin to lose it's price sometimes. After all, then weak hands panick and sell, while strong hands continue to hold and stay in the game. In the field of crypto currencies you need to have strong hands if you want to get a good profit.

Yeah, market is like a poker. Any asset is like a player cards. Any trend is like hand and there are a bankroll management. But market is much more difficult than poker and it need to understand. 

Not that only getting strong in holding because you should known what is good to hold and until when you will hold what you are holding. That is a big question mark for everyone some have an over patience which is nothing good to hold in a coin that he was holding on.

Well, that was totally true not just in this part, but also applicable into any type of scenario because mostly those who gain success are those people who do not easily give up and have the strong belief as well as perseverance to win everything with all their might. Actually you are right to say that in this game which is the pump and dump of Bitcoin price, it is really in need that you have the strong stand and hand to keep on holding into your assets and avoid the temptation of selling what you have just to save and cut your losses because mostly at this time, we will be experiencing a lot more than that and those who can certainly win this as time comes that Bitcoin regains its loss are those people who have all their might to keep on holding into their assets despite of the price dumps.

Well it depends upon the situation you cannot push everyone to keep holding for some Bitcoins if they really need the money. Given the fact that it was their property we should not interfere to that part, what is the main point of holding ? Its all about the profit you may have if you keep your most money, I guess this thread is about the money thatyou can get if you keep holding, better to say that dont sell Bitcoins unless you really have to do it .

I support your position. Crypto is not a place for the weak or impatient persons.

That is the reality. because panic spur the keingan to sell faster. but if it waits a little longer it makes a profit or maybe it could lose that further, it's not just in crypto. stock market also so. but they have basic trading analysis.

Yeah, your right mate. Well, this.kind of job should be strong enough and take a risk just to try the luck of users has. Basically, we need to try our luck which will depends on our skills and caoabilty which base on our own perceptions. Losing money is just normal as long as you've been learned on your mistakes and by doing it next time you will definitely know what's the best for your own good.

In the investment especially bitcoin then the thing we must understand is the price can go up and down hundreds or even thousands of dollars, when the price drop then the first thing we have to do is continue to buy and do not panic to sell because the price soon improved.

I must agree with your statement. Yes, there is only the lacking of knowledge. The nature has given mind power to everyone and this power is equally divided to the whole world’s population, just the difference comes when someone uses this more than others. And this usage is powered by the learning about that one particular domain in which better results can be obtained by best learning.

ofcourse they do!) if someone don't know or don't ready enough for doing some bussiness that he/she would not have a profit. But every stong hand becomes from weak.

Trading is something which is all the time giving you stress because you never know when the coin is going to pump or dump. Traders are supposed to look at the graphs of coins all the time or whenever they get some time. You cannot miss on any single essential update when you are involved in trading. Those who are short tempered, they can never ever succeed in this field.

That is true those weak hands tend to panic sell more when they are losing it is like a game and they will always be a quitter because they are already losing that is why they will end the game already. But those though people will always take the risk buy in a dump even if the price are low they will took that as an opportunity to buy and then gain a lot of profit when the price are up again because dome people just invest when they see it pumping but that is the most risky thing because it can go down any moment

I agree with what you said about this. I always say that this is "Survival of the fittest" where the weak hands came out empty handed in the end and those who have strong hands prevails in this game.

Weak hands are sometimes those people who doesn't have knowledge about crypto currency and once they saw a negative news regarding bitcoin, they say "OHHHH SHIT SHIT SHIT, I WILL SELL MY BITCOINS BECAUSE OF THIS NEWS" suckers. In the end, they are full or regret because of what they have done.

Strong hands on the other hand are often called "THE CONTRARIANS". These hands are usually the people who have knowledge and know how cryptocurrency plays. In trading and in investing, negative news are opportunity for them to accumulate some bitcoins because they know that it will crash. In the end, they will just sit there relaxing while seeing their bitcoin's value rise again.

Sad to say, most of the investors have weak hands and they are putting emotion first.

I think that this is only one point about any kind of bussinesses. You should to be wise as much as you can while doing money, especially BTC.

Your emotions is capable of that because if you control your it there is more positive outcome and in crypto there are many of them who's always in panic. If you are strong hands you have a good targets that you know it will hit before selling.trolls and Fuds news are there and it may dump the price or not the decision is on oneself.

Will this is a good kind of figure of speech about the cryptocurrency,that the weak hands will lose money and the strong will thrive in this game,and this will give us hope into this community,that whoever must patience to hold more there asset shall be rewarded into the end of there sacrifice,because maybe there investment can bring them into the moon someday,so therefore patience is a virtue,and we avoid FUD in every decision we create.

This happens to use, being a newbie around December last year. So sold our tokens being a weak hand. If we sold it just a month after, we could be in a 140K USD profit. huhu. But anyway, things happen for a reason and major reason is to learn.

Unstable emotion is the main reason of lose when price goes down and down. Panic will enter the mindset system. It can destroy your stable coin in the storage. It can be your regrets if it recover. So weak couldn't be blame cause it is one of human weakness. Better to move out from the past with learnings to apply when the same things happen again. Experience is the best teacher.

Yeah though you learn if you accept that its something to learn about. There will be people who will always find something to blame as to why they lost instead of taking it as a lesson. Take those people who whine when the price drops a d whine about how they missed an opportunity to buy low. Its funny reading all their negativities.

I heard the similar thought about forex trading, there are newbies and a sharks, sharks just got more blood from those starving newbs.

That is where we must be good at using the strategy of busines, because in the business world there are only two possibilities of "eat or eated" if we can not adjust the strategy and there are only two possible "profit or loss" so to plunge into the world our business not only requires strong capital, but also accompanied by an intelligent strategy

If you are emotionally strong and that you have this much of the patience level that you can keep your nerves under your control even at time of loss and that you don’t panic, then I don’t think so that you will ever come across any such situation in which you will lose your money. You just need to believe in yourself and that you need to stay firm and that you need not to lose hop no matter what.

In this game of uncertainties, we have to increase the level of strength, positivity, knowledge, and determination, these are the qualities that help you earn and obtain profits. It takes hardwork, and passion to win the game. You may encounter troubles and failures in the journey, but it is having the good attitude that get you to your direction, by responding to any situations meaningfully.

agree but sometimes your are not weak hands if selling weak coins, like it happened with bitconnect ,those who sold it first lost much less then others. Last year i invested into experty and sold it right after it was on idex below ico price at x0.9, you could tell that im weak hands but there was too many red flags and now experty is x0.2

I agree with this old saying in investment world. Because in this crypto currency world, being strong means you are very patient and you don't get easily swayed by FUDs and when you have weak hands means you are impatient and can be easily swayed  by FUDs and other people, which leads to you doing things like panic selling hence losing your coins or investments. If you want to succeed in this business, make sure you have strong hands, be patient and be strong in believing in your coins regardless of the current price or what some people are saying.

Yes, it is very important that you have not complete knowledge about this work so you can never make a huge profit as you want but if you learn about this game completely, so you can get everything as you want in your life because you have strong hands and that's why you can earn much more money.

Well it really do seems like it,
But there are times when the weak hands made the right decision on cutting loss,

It is a words of a wise man. I wish I would became this strong hands one day, becouse right now I`m a hamster :)

That was what we call strategy when you have wit and knowledge you will become successful in joining bitcoins because in this project patience is also needed in order to have that big profits in the end.

I believe that the investors who manage to sell at top and buy at dip are the ones who will make the most of the trade money and I will try to become one of them but I failed many times.

I admire those people who are stronger. They are really have their strategy and are already expert in this type of investment. I will study this business so hard so that I can be like them. Maybe, first few steps might be difficult but when you are equipped with knowledge and skills then you can do it.

as if loser is for the weak hands and winner makes more profit as a strong hands does...but in this game of cryptocurrrency one has to be strategic and is brave in heart in order to win the game...those who are expert in this field knows how to turn the table upside down...its always a risk and it pays the price for every sacrifice one does in the name of Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is main currency in cryptomarket and its good investment. I think if we hold it as long term investment, I am believe we can make big profits in the future. Its not 1 month or 3 months game but I do believe its long term investment in digital world.
Weak hand always exist because they dont preparing good psychology and strong hand always see opportunity from weak hand and make big profits

yes it is true. Weak hands lose money while strong hands makes profit. Meaning, weak hands easily panick when bitcoin price drops becuse they are afraid they might lose their capital while strong hands makes profit because they are calm and patient to wait for the price to increase.

Most weak hands dive into cryptocurrency investment world just for bigger profits,  though they need a feeling dare to the risk in it and a will to educate themselves about the investment lessons.

Yes it is very important that you should get complete education about bitcoin so that's why you will earn best money because if you have no knowledge about this game then you will lose your money but if you read about it then you will earn a lot of money and that's why you will suddenly become a rich man.

We are all Intend to Invest crypto currency In order to earn a profits that might our money make  doubled or more than of this. A man that has a lesser patience are considered as weak man. And If we want to survive here In crypto world Investment,  we must hold and more patience, don't easily mind those bad news spreading out in social media because Its just a fraud.

That's the just the plain truth. After my portfolio dip as a result of fomo and poor research, I have made up my mind to wait even if it took 2 years for the market to fully recover. The code is invest in solid projects with use case and forget it till it buys you lambo.

Agree. If you hold with a solid project, then you do not have to worry when its price goes down because you know it will recover again in the future. So the struggle of investors is to which projects they should invest. If you are a holder, then make sure you are holding the good ones.

Yes, i would agree with you, this is not for weak people, Market is Volatile, no one can predict what will happened next in the crytpo market trading, patient and timing is my virtue, specially in term of guarding my profit of investment. we have seen a lot of news fed, something about losing everything of his investment in crypto because of some technical concerns, like password was hacked and taken all his investment, and a lot more other related news.

Truth it is. The ones who are okay with taking too much risk by buying more coins during the dip will gain big profits at the end. While those who are scared with the dips and aren't taking advantage of it will miss the opportunity.

It depends on how Is he gonna be delivering his trades I weak hand does not generally lose specifically if he is hitting his targets no matter how many his trades are if its profiting it can beat the strong hand long term holders but it does requier a lot of experience and skill because we are in a highly volatile market and anything can go wrong in a minute or even a second but all depends on how are you gonna play the game..

Yes, that is so true that weak hands lose money and strong hands make a profit. Investing in bitcoin is so risky but one time millionaire, all we need in this kind of game is to play well put a patience and hard work to win the game. We need also to be knowledgeable in bitcoin, to be educated in this kind of forum is give us the advantage to earn more profit.

All we need to do is to have knowledge in this bitcoin world . To know what can you do if theres a problem . Need to be good in strategy .

I do agree,  people who doesn't have strong will and determination to put up a good hands in doing this kind of investment will surely don't get a good profit. In order to get good profit one should not be discouraged easily,  you have to be mentally fit to cope up with challenges in this kind of investment. Be strategic and don't get panic easily, you have to strong and be patient.

Today, the capitalization of the entire market of crypto currency exceeds 520 billion dollars. A year ago, Bitcoin was 51% of the total capitalization. Now, despite all the disadvantages that we've considered, Bitcoin still holds a third of the entire market.

I agree with you. Knowing when to sell and when to buy is an advantage for most of us. If we really want to gain a good profit then we shouldn't sell until we gain a good profit. Buying while the prices are low and hodling while waiting for the best value is one of the great strategy for us to earn a good profit here in cryptocurrency.

Indeed, those peope who are strong to grip their holding will definitely will win the battle of this price changing. Not that kind of people who risklessly sell out most of their holding out of fear, and shock. That is not a good manner, they urgently need to change their attitude, that won't help them to have a good income. Your story is kind of a motivation for me aside from others, hoping that this kind of stuff will help others who are still not learning, and will learn the game of fluctuations.

Being in this industry is just you are in a gambling. Whether you loose or you win. Before you trade or invest, you need to study first the trending of bitcoin or cypto currencies. Don't just buy and sell without any knowledge or study.

People are emotional beings, by definition.
So, when we invest time and money in something, we wants result immediately.
Because of our fears, hopes, plans we are to much emotionally involved and can't think rationally.
When something happened and price starts to go down, many people can't control their emotions and start to sell in panic, in order to prevent bigger loses.
Only people with strong mind and character, and strong will, can control their emotions and make good, strategic, long term decisions.

it is important to have good knowledge of whatever business venture you are going into. Remember knowledge is power, the information you gather about bitcoin will strengthen and guide you to make the right decision during downtime. every business requires the strength of heart to succeed. you must be will to take risk of holding on while price starts rising and sell later when the price is at the peak to make more profit.

Yeah but there are so many whales now or day traders that are relatively doing also their best to day trade and earn on it and the result crypto market price could not go high. So we have to keep waiting on when will there will be a good market price raise so that these traders could lose their money for doing buy and sell with the crypto.

Yes you are right, trading is like gambling with less risk because you can always earn profit depending on the market's volatility and that is also the reason why bitcoins is very good for long term investment.

Those who are weak,doubtful and without patient usually give up in this crypto world, they joined and yet seem skeptical when waiting for their profit does not happen the way they expect, easily move by negative news and comments but those who persevere in this game can really make it.

Well, usually in any kind of game weak people lose and strong people win... so I don't see why in cryptoworld should be different.
It's called "natural selection" and itì's the way that nature uses to improve the world. Any world.

Yeah definitely dude weak hands will gonna lose there money  ;D. The best thing to do when the price of cryptocurrencies drastically drop is to hodl or accumulate, that is what I'm doing right now on my small amount of TNB and NEBL  ;D. The rules of trading is you'll sell it at low price  ;).

Getting a profit on BTC is like a gamble for most people. They put a lot of investment hoping they will be back soon. As an observation with Btc, it is important to observe before taking any action. Making money with Bitcoin is not like you will have your money back with double or triple values.

it can be called similar such as gambling because the price of bitcoin was very unpredictable and hoping too much from bitcoin is not good especially hoping to get double or tripple from people initial investment and yes hold seems not an actual strategy anymore currently because most people can't hold their bitcoin and mostly they're worried their investment value will be decrease day by day

I'm thinking of a guy who cashed out in January because he was content and had enough money to pay his mortgage. I thought it was a bad idea, he should hold, but he made out huge.

I hold almost everything and try not to look at the day to day swings of the market.
But, there must also be a point to reap the profits. I don't like day trading, I am too emotional for that and it would give me too much stress.

So, I think of myself of a hodler of tokens and coins which I think they have or will have a great future.

But .. when to sell? When is high high enough?

For instance, I bought Kucoin at the end of last year for just under $1. It went up to $20, but looking at all the data at hand, I thought (and still think) that it might reach $70-$100.

What would you do do in such a case? When to sell?

This applies to all types of investments like stocks. I think that strong hands come with experience only.

Weak hands indeed lose money to strong hands so what normally happens after ico when bounty hunter wants to sell and make some money for survival.so the strong hand will buy the tokens cheap and sell later when prices finally go up. They normally regret their actions but it is always too late for them to correct anything

All right. Players, I would even say investors who invest their funds in long-term financial asset assets will be in profit in more cases than players playing on short terms.

Thats absolutly true! In the cryptocurrency world, you most important thing is patience. Everybody is coming in this market because they heared that people get rich with bitcoins and some other currencies. But if they would make some researches, they would also see, that these people hold their bitcoins vor a very long time! So dont be stupid, and hold your coins!

In situations where you are involved in cryptocurrency, sometimes someone who appears behind you will weaken your intent or purpose, so it is never an easy answer, about what we should do.
To make our hands become strong hands, we must always be alert to the development of cryptocurrency and know where the direction of the market moves.

Strong hands refer to your holdings your funds that are not sold, while weak hands refer to the panic sellers of their coins and funds, In this game the most patience people always wins and the panic sellers always lose.

My friend's holdings went up to something like a million dollars, now it's at 100 thousands. Sometimes it's just best to appreciate that insane ammount that you have and sell, but he thought it could go many, many times higher.

That's great. I think so. In this market, it is necessary to adhere to the skills and psychology firmly. The psychological factor, the feeling I think will help to 90% is victory. And that shows that when it comes to market volatility, there is nothing to worry about. I believe the power of psychology and intense emotions will help us complete the goal.

YES EXACTLY. Weak hands are those people who sells their coins or tokens when the value go down. And those strong hands people are the people who don't sell their coins or token even the value of it decreases and go down to its lowest value. You must knew that there are just 2 choices here. To hodl and gain profit in the future or to sell in a cheap price.

Those who are newbies need to get more experience from their mistake of buying and selling coin. There are no chance for luck.
If you are always nervous to sell their coin in panic at lower price. leave this crypto market is the best decision.

Yes you are right I agree with what you say this. If I think what I mean by this word, if you do not know about this game we will not be able to profit. If we know about this game we can profit, my advice if not know we have to learn.

This still applies. Invest and hold now before the prices go up. And always don't invest more than you can lose. Being patient is the key here. You just gotta keep your hopes up that the prices will go up. Don't panic sell you are going to regret that later when you see your friends balling  8).

Panic selling is one of big problem that must be dealt with much importance and consideration. Our main focus must be towards the way that how can we segregate from such feelings and emotions that take us toward such smooth destruction. Don’t just take things in a way that when prices start dropping, you start panic selling and lose everything.

I agree with you, it's all about patience and being brave enough to face the consequence of hodling. Have the courage to wait more and always expect the best from cryptpcurrency because good things usually come to those who are willing to wait.

Those who are of panic selling would likely to lose money ,and those who are dumping coins during bear market might also lose some profits, but to the one who holds during this season and wait for the bullish run  market would like to makw some profits.

Most people lose money because of inexperience and fear. I think that a low level of knowledge is also the cause of losses.

I have been seeing this strategy since I started, a lot of threads, articles and advices about it but then again, there will always be people who still are not learning from it. There are still those people who tend to panic, panic sell, create FUDs, they are even haunted by the ghost they made themselves. Well i know that it is easier to say it and harder, way way harder to do it especially when you know for a fact that you have worked so hard to be able to earn the money you invested in it. But you have to train yourself, train your mind, manage your emotions and be prepared for instances like this. You have to be ready, smart, strategic, patient, mentally and emotionally prepared for what ever it is that is going to happen

Rich people will win in the cryptocurrency game, they have money, you can hodl cryptocurrency, waiting for the market to recover!
And the poor have no time to wait, they can only sell their own cryptocurrency at a loss!

The more money, the stronger you feel in the market.  Those who do not have money expect quick returns, but their expectations can not always be justified.

Finally a bitter truth. Its true that weak handed people drive this market lot of times. I mean most of the time they will drive this market to negative side and will try to dump as much quantities as they could. See, the effect of this panic sale all the time. Whales are always ready to buy no matter what happens with the market, because they know very well this situation is temporary and it will be back to the normal. They keep this attitude and that is why they are whales of this market. They are hungry in any way and keeps buying when weak handed sale. That is the way everyone should be reacting to market.

If you do have patience well, you won` actually lose everything in terms of holding in cryptocurrency, but the problem if you are a poor person you actually need the money for personal or whatever purposes you will encountered in your life.

What must be understood is that investment in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies requires courage to take risks, if we are afraid to take risks then we will never get profit. and with patience we will get a big profit someday.

That's part in reason due to how easily people are influenced by other opinions they read about these things. Governments have known this since we carved words on stone tablets and have taken advantage of it to sway public opinion about things so they can more easily get what they want. If the people weren't so easily influenced, we wouldn't have central banks printing money and driving up inflation while giving us savings percentages worth half the value. We'd have fewer sheep and more wolves. But perhaps that's the dangers of economy, with too many wolves, there's nothing left to hunt.

Our capability to have a better gain depends on how we handle our hodlings and earnings. If we give up easily in crypto or if we can't handle our emotions here, we wouldn't be able to have a better profit. We need to take the risks of investing here in crypto world and be willing to wait for the right time to trade.

those people who are coward of are afraid to use cryptocurrencies like bitcoin is the ones who have weak hands. they cannot gain any profit of income because they are afraid to use bitcoin. but for those who are a bitcoin user and are not afraid to invest are the ones who make so much money in life.

Yeah you're right if you didn't know how to play well here you will lose in the game..   You need to know what is the best and great strategy to perform during that certain situation in the market...  We need to be always updated in everything here because if we miss the chances it will not come back...

Yes, it's happening especially to people who are afraid of the collapse of their investment. That is why it is especially advantageous for calm because they can buy back the cheap price. So we should be smart and not afraid of the collapse of the market because of this we will earn more profit especially when bitcoin price rises again.

I agree totally with the assertion.
Weak hands panic sell at loss while strong hands ,thats those who hold sell at profit .
I'd rather be a holder.

According to me As an observation with Btc, it is important to observe first before taking any action. Making money with Bitcoin is not like you will have your money back with double or triple values. Observation and patience is one of the keys to earning Bitcoin income.
Getting a profit on BTC is like a gamble for most people. They put a lot of investment hoping they will come back soon.

I hope that the dip is now at 6k and we will see those prices again as we saw in January. The fear sometimes leads to sell your coins at the top and I hope I haven`t hodl my coins in January and sold them.

Yes, many panic and lose their money in the end.This effect is achieved with the help of media space.Someone in a panic made millions

well absolutly dude, in this kind of game need really hard touch with further analzysis to getting in such of profit in it and for what decision you made you must know if there any consequence that you need to handle to survive in this matter

You are right we are in a world where everything that we are doing involves risk and our ability to make decision, we can always play games here in crypto if we will just know how to handle things and we can only handle it if we know what we are doing in our life, if we have at least some basic knowledge with how crypto works.

People must study the BTC trends very well people they enter the market. Most people who sell low due to panic do so because they may have likely joined the market without learning so much about when they have to make entries. It is always good to buy the dips because BTC always rises above previous lows. The may be few exceptional case but mostly, we see BTC rising above a previous low(unless there is an extremely high rise in price).

2017 was something a lot different and I wouldn’t blame anyone that as running up and down just in case they lose money. The price in 2017 bubbled a lot and went high more than it ever did in the past years (a huge percentage more than the past years) and it also dropped heavily from that price rate down to $6ooo, with lots of investors losing more than 50% of their investments. Well, you can still call them weak hands but I’d probably run off when I’m losing big money.

In fact, bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency market is a game. In which there are 2 categories of players. Some win and some lose. Those who win, they are more experienced and legible in this market. Beginners are more likely to make mistakes.

As I always say, the weak die and the strong get stronger. This is exactly what happens in the cryptocurrency world and the market. In the crypto market, it is important to be patient and not to panic when the price of a currency falls to the lows. I know for sure that bitcoin will grow higher.

I have seen a thread on our locals stating that he was a victim on holding crypto. After the dump he invested on it and seeing that there could be a bounce back with the market price after it was being dump. Now more and more individuals are dumping on their coins and he brought some of it. Now the market price for that crypto continues to dump and never gets back the problem is that he is holding until now and never saw that there could be a bright future on that crypto. What do you think of this is still good to hold? If i were him i will dump that coins and invest on establish crypto.

I always think, the future is indeterminate. But the past can look back.
As a result, the BTC held long, the winner.
The future, of course, uncertain, but if saying "History repeats", long-term hold can be the winner.

The rule is so simple: never sell during the dip! It's always the same rule, from many years.
If you sell during the dip, whales get bigger and they will make profits during the next bullrun.

That's just how this cryptocurrency works. It has become an investment all this years and that people tend to put their trust into a coin to gain some profit. Only few understand what's its purpose. Since January, Bitcoin has plunged so hard till $5,000. It's a good thing that all this weak hands has left the game. Holders like us would be able to buy another dip. But Bitcoin is becoming business. Once people see profit, they would grab it, specially those whales which creates panic.

Agree with this statement only strong hands will have at the same time survive in this game so if I were you I will not listen on some news and don't listen on some people that has no enough knowledge regarding on bitcoin so better do some research on yourself so you must the flow of this game and ride on it.

My insight was the same as yours, those who are scared to invest in Bitcoin are the people who have weak hands. Their hands are weak, because they can't handle their own money and situation. I also think that Weak Minds lose money too, because for me, investing requires a good mental endurance, so they can endure and calm whenever Bitcoin falls, so there will be no panic selling, and the percentage of loss will be less.

I am not surprised, the strong hand will not pray weak hands to become librated, its choice of weak hand to make strong hand richer and the vise versa. I would never join the league of weak hands.

I do not understand where the surprise is: in any game the weak lose and the strong win: why should it be different in the crypto?

That applies to any market but people do not want to accept that truth all of those that keep trying to guess which coin is going to be next one to skyrocket will lose all their money before they find a coin like that, some find the right coin out of luck, but how many actually hold for long enough to see those profits? Not many and then they get bitter about it, so like always the best recommendation we can give in this market is hold your coins and to not sell them until you get to your target price.

I think in the world of bitcoin there are still many users and investors who have weak hands, because you can see when there is bad news, or bad speculation, and prices are falling, many users cannot be patient and easily sell their coins when they panic , the proof is the price is very easy to drop sharply in crypto market

Yes its like a basketball game that if the ball is in the weak hands then the opponents will have a bigger chance to steal it and take away it for that person. The person that has a bigger chance to win ang to get more profits is the person that has a stronger hands. But not only strong hands we also need a strong mind to make a right steps and good moves and also great strategies, have a good skills and abilities to win in any game. This is like a sports game, we need to be not only physically strong but also we need to have strong mind and be mentally prepared to have more chances for winning.

There is nothing wrong with cutting your loss, the only problem with people is that they do it in a stupid way and tend to create an opportunity for the whales to manipulate price up and down.

Greed and fear is two thing investors supposed to get rid of completely, cause they fear when the price is down and keep on fearing till price has gotten very high, then will invest out of greed when the price is already about to go down and look for who to blame.

The amount of weak hands is smaller than just a few months ago when we were in the middle of the bubble, however there are still many people that could sell at any moment and this is because they are waiting for a very big recovery and they are not seeing it and when the year ends and the recovery does not come I really think we are going to see another decrease of the price of all of the people that will leave the market disappointed with what it is happening.

yes you are right for a weak hand that will make them experience a lot of losses because they have sold their assets at a very cheap price and it will make him feel sorry for the mistakes they have made.

we need to act like strong hand do, without it we just played by whales and larger speculator in market.better to trainee our mental and psyhology before investing in crypto market.

The strong hands are very effective if the market price is average stable or rising up but with this current market performance which is constantly declining that you never know if the bullish market is for real or just a fantasy then of course you could say how you wish if you  just sell your coins earlier. For me this is not about weak hands and strong hands anymore but to have the ability to sell high and buy it low again with a perfect timing.

Perfect mate,at the end of the day still bitcoin holders will succeed and bitter will cry,i remember the price of bitcoin when i first came here and comparing to what the value it climbs last December so thats a huge difference

Thats why im asking now when the price just came back to whats the value year ago people got rattled when the truth is were only going back old times

that's right, I agree with you. as long as we can stay calm and don't panic in the dip, we can survive and we can make a profit again after the dip is over. maybe it's difficult for us but I think we need to have a strong mind that keeps telling us to still survive so we don't have to worry about the dip. and if we can do this, I am sure that people will not panic in the dip and they can hold their coins.

It is not like that making money is an easy job. Bitcoin has made people rich but only those ones who had knowledge and believe in it and for most people, it is difficult to understand and trust not only bitcoin but any other digital currency. Like you said, the present value is a past value but people are reacting like bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme or a weak asset.

It is true that weak hand always lossing their money. They always panic when market volatile and its very normal in any market that price always fluctuated. Strong hand in crypto will reach success because they believe that market will recovery and believe crypto is future investment

That will be the right thing to do, many people enter in this market without really knowing what they are going to face, they do not understand that the market of cryptocurrencies is many times more volatile than the market of stocks or forex and when they feel the volatility first hand and see how much money they can lose just in matter of hours they sell their coins since they did not knew this was the way this market moves.

I think so those who has a weak hand can easily lose their money. But we can't blame them for their actions. Maybe they only don't want to lose all their money.

I agree with you. We should really be strong enough to hold and handle all our holdings bravely and strongly. Patience is our key to have a good gain in the future. During this dip, the best thing that we could do is to wait and expect the best out of cypto and wait for the recovery.

yes you are really a weak hand who will only be able to get losses because they cannot control their patience to wait patiently until the price returns to increase the price so as not to lose.

I now have a new strategy because Hodling in 2018 made me lose 99.4% of my portfolio value, so as I hit rock bottom two weeks ago it dawned on me that I needed to start day trading. So I took half my bag and placed it into what I call day trading mode, while the other half is sitting and quietly accumulating. Now I can say I am growing my main hodl bag back slowly, taking out a weekly wage to survive and trading up my trading bag. I need to point out here that if you don't have a day job just hodling is not enough. Having said that, now that we are at rock bottom, it's the best time to accumulate in whatever way you can your favorite coins and tokens before the next bull run. Follow two basic rules, don't fomo buy in and don't panic sell.

People should not panic when he decide to invest in cryptocurrency. Its already known cryptocurrency always high volatile, but if we able to hold for long term, i am believe crypto is good investment and profitable investment.

Totally agree. They don't see the big picture and they don't understand that if the price goes down on your portfolio, it doesn't mean that you lose money. If you cash out on a down portfolio then you're making that loss a reality. I strongly believe that whenever the market is down and i see red, it means everything is on sale and I'd just buy more coins.

The Weak don't make profit, why? Because they're afraid of taking chances or risk. Dont be afrsid just becaise you might get scammed or your invedtment might be gone. Think positive and research the stuff you invested in. Be strong and you might earn what you deserve it.

I think what you say is that there is also the truth that anyone who can't control the patience they have then they will experience a lot of losses because they sell their assets too quickly at very cheap prices.

Trade in different way, Treat short term trades as binary options, Other traders are trying to capture a move, but instead you are trying a defined bet. When you have a bad trade don't close it immediately but instead set a random timer to automatically close the trade within a defined but short period of time.Try random delays for entries as well. If a trade does'nt work out within a define time, close it out It probably was'nt a good price or opportunity if its still available after some time.

Yes i also agree on this point of view, because i also see a positive side when the market is red. We just need to hold patiently while the market is just growing, we should not take it negatively instead make some actions that would help you like investing more coins while bear market is in. Its an opportunity and we should grab it, later it will be a huge money.

 Yes , weak hand are always lose but if you know the right things to do in market you make some bucks because of it. I not professional in the trading but i do only is to buy low and sell high that i think is good to make profit. But someday i want to be a strong hands that can handle more easily in the market.

 I can agree with you because most of the people who get lost in here are those who are soft hearted. No offense but I do not say that beibg soft hearted people is a bad thing but it is just a bad habit if you are applying it into your business especially here that only tha toughest will remains because there are a lot of challenges here like scams and price falls but it is up to you how to handle it how to became successful after all.

Truth is that those who learned how to panic but buys back when the price dips are the ones that will survive more than those who just hold. So don't just HODL! dump when necessary because that is when you find out whether you can survive solely in cryptocurrency. There are lots of people who were already regretting why they hold when in fact they could have sold everything.

A weak hand can save him self from some loss as well, but in general weak hands gain less to no profit.

Everyone went to that stage when we're just starting here. The movement and volatility in crypto is more than that of say perhaps the stock market or foreign exchange. And i agree that sometimes weak hands can save themselves from big losses but also won't get opportunities to gain. It takes guts to make money in crypto.

The thing is that you never know when exactly the bottom will be reached. Some said that $7k per btc would be a psychological threshold that could ruin the whole system - but OK, now we have $6,500, and nobody has died so far.
Holding is almost always the best strategy, but oooh how exhausting it sometimes can be..

What if you badly needed that money and the dip is covering the market?where can you find something to spend?

This is depending on what is the situation,if we are capable enough to wait and keep patience why not,just leave the funds in wallet and wait for recovery,but if you have nothing reserve so better sell at loss and take a chance another time,crypto world rounds and nothing's permanent in this volatile community

these are true. This is not a game. proper analysis is required. and no luck needed information. perhaps some unexpected developments may happen, for example, governments ... maybe this may be a bad luck. but I think the only thing that is unpredictable is the time index.

I definetly agree to it..  If you have strong hand you will win and probably you will earn more..  But if you are weak hands you will possibly loss..  The market is just like a game we need to play in it well for us not to loss..  Hold your coin until you think that the market is really good...  Today it is much better to buy and hold than to sell...

Panic does its job. Who can not control emotions - he will always lose money. The energy of the crowd, the emotions of the crowd always had the power to go in their opinion, when everyone does the opposite - it's difficult.

That is very much the thinking i have now. That as long as the market is down I'd have to buy as much coins as i can place my hands on. Because as far as i know, once the bull market kicks in, I'd be banging my head saying "i should've bought more". But the main thing that's stopping me is my available liquid cash for me to buy coins with.

Many people were different reason why they sell their stock not all gonna be happen  because of the price deceased and bad speculation to the stability of bitcoin. sometimes they felt uncomfortable and experienced to many problems on their family nobody knows  but that's possible. people know already what's difficult to enter the volatile business and absolutely there's a risk but we did not not doing this we have nothing to get even the small profit, so strategy is the best important here we don't rely on others what feelings they have we follow our heart on what the best to do. 

be relaxed and calm, thank you for your advice.
btw don't you feel panic at all with the current situation?

An old strategy I say but still very much working and dependable in the crypto currency world. In any investment you have to have a strong belief on what you are investing at so you will not be easily swayed by fear, uncertainties and doubts. You will only be successful when you can do necessary actions that you have well thought about and not just based in your emotions or pride.

based on his statements above , i dont think he is panicking . also , not only newbies do panic or get scared when the market is falling because even veterants like me are also panicking sometimes and we usally end up selling some of our coins .

i know that the market fall is only temporary or normal but im a guy that cant wait for too long , in terms of market recovery . besides , i also needed the money on a regular basis , thats why much better if i can secure their value rather than waiting and risking them to fluctuate because of volatility .

I think you need to leave your emotions out of this game...people get scared and nervous in combination with impatience...then at some stage when things only go lower and lower they get fed up and get out. Makes no rational sense, but we are just humans, nit robots.

That is the risk involve here we really need to be great so that we can always have the courage to take risk.  We need to know everything help our self to teach and to learn. Don't just rely on somebody we should learn to trust ourselves as well.

the strong who survive, the principle is almost the same as eating or eating it I think the sentence that fits in this case, here I take the positive side of it is not to be lazy and lazy if you do not want to lose or not achieve something that is good in your life including in the world of crypto currency investment

Every newbies in cryptocurrencies should take time to learn the basics of cryptocurrencies so they be prepared when they start investing or trading in the crypto market. They're one who are easily panic when the market iscontinuous to go down. Weak hands can become strong handsvif they give more time in learning how the virtual coins works and how the market behave. This will also lessen the risk of losing more investments because of sufficient knowledge in cryptocurrencies.

It is important to choose the strategy that is right for you, correlates with your features. And then weak hands can become strong

Weak don't make profit, why? Because they're afraid of taking chances or risk. Dont be afrsid just becaise you might get scammed or your invedtment might be gone. Think positive and research the stuff you invested in. Be strong and you might earn what you deserve it.

how do you get a profit, bro, because we are already afraid of the risks, we should fight against the risk, not just avoid it.

You see, what drives the week hands is far different from what drives the strong hands. The week hand just hears of price rise and jump in without any knowledge but with the mind to make money overnight. Once this doesn't happen, they start selling massively even at loss. Strong hands take advantage of situation like this to buy more because they know quite well that the price will still go up, judging from their previous experience. In this case,  they eventually make profit.

I think so those who have a weak hand can easily lose their money. But we can't blame them for their actions. Maybe they only don't want to lose all their money.

Strong Hands means, you are not afraid even the bitcoin price become lower. Also, the strong one will earn someday and believer will be bless. And in Weak Hand, this people afraid to lose and risk their money. ;) ;)

Ahaahah! True that! I just think about it whenever the market is down that the coins are on a massive sale! So, i buy more to beef up my holdings then wait for the bull run and see my investments bear fruit.

Whether you are one of the weak hands or the strong hands, the main point is if you really know what you’re doing and having an understanding on how the market works.

If you don’t know what you are doing there is no way you’re going to earn from it, you will keep on losing no matter how strong you are. Although some believe that if you can hold for long that there are chances that you will make profit at anytime, but trust me you might wait for more than a year.

When ever there is a deep the strong investors always sees it as a opportunity to buy more because in no time since it market is highly volatile you stand to make gain with the price rise in future. But of you sell out of panic then you are already losing your assets and becoming a newbie in the crypto market.

It is what it is, not everyone can be a pilot and not everyone can be good at gambling. Sometimes stress can be the biggest aspect that pulls us back. But as every new job that you take, there is a time needed to adjust.

That is very much the thinking i have now. That as long as the market is down I'd have to buy as many coins as i can place my hands on. Because as far as i know, once the bull market kicks in, I'd be banging my head saying i should've bought more. But the main thing that's stopping me is my available liquid cash for me to buy coins with.

I bought coins at the end of winter and planned to keep them long! But I did not expect the bearish trend to be so long. A little more and I will also be called weak hands ((

It's true and I think it's more like gambling if you mention it like that. The point is you need knowledge and expertise if you don't want to get losses and luck too.

I absolutely agree with that fact crypto offers possibilities at any condition of the market and the only thing we can do is becoming stronger and wiser.

yes you are right for anyone who has weak hands and is too susceptible to bad news or is easily affected so they will only get losses, so I suggest you don't be too easily affected by bad situations in the market.

If you planned to keep them long, then you have no urgent requirement for money that force you to sell your coins. You can afford to hold them for much longer. It might be wiser not to book losses now, and hold for some time. It doesn't matter how long the bear market lasts, if you really believe in the future of Bitcoin.

That is how trading and investing works in this crazy crypto assets a lot of people cannot control their selves whenever bitcoin is down and I was into this situation before and sometimes. Invest 50% on good coins and save 50% of btc to buy in dip.

in this field we must be able to avoid panic so as not to lose a lot of money in situations where market conditions are always decreasing. there is no doubt that someone who has a lot of their capital has a greater chance of being successful because the money they invest in cryptocurrency is not disturbed at all and they can make it a form of long-term investment

Panic when they face a very strong discount on Bitcoin is inevitable for beginners investing in Bitcoin. If they continue to invest in Bitcoin, I am sure they will eventually earn huge profits.

I agree with this, only the strong hands can be able to make a profit from the crypto market and people who are weak hands will regret to sell their coins too early. so if you want to make a profit, make sure that you have a strong hand to hold your coins and never sell if you cannot make the profit. maybe you need a longer time to hold the coins but trust me, it is worth to hold because, in the end, every coin that you have will increase so you can make a lot of profit.

Of course you are right! We need to believe in Bitcoin's future. In the end, other assets will not be able to bring as much profit in a short time as digital currencies in a bull trend!

Yes l believe that our future is in our hands,whatever we pursue to do in our lives will make it happen.It's about what we believe and do will happen.

I think this phrase talks about how long you gonna hold your coin. It simply says that if you hold your coin in a short period and sell it right away, you might have lose your money. But if you hold it longer, the higher chance that the price will rise up because of the rarity of that coin i guess.

Yes I completely agree with you on this. Cryptocurrency market is not for the ones who have weak heart and cannot take risky ventures. There is no point of entering in this market if you can’t take risks. If a person wants to make a considerable profit in crypto market then you should show some patience and courage. Panicking will only gave you huge losses that you will regret about later.

I can agree and both disagree on this idea. Professionals use stop loss level to avoid losing too much. Strong hands  as you said doesn't guarantee success, it is only good and always positive when market is favorable. So many investors had problem with these idea and are murmuring a lot because instead of gaining they did lose their money. While true it should have to be analyzed to allow reasonable inputs and not just the plain logic which will turn nonsense. Can you build a tower that will reach the heavens using wood? Certainly no, this means everything has to consider limitations. Strong hands won't take you there but your better analysis of things.

I agree with this old saying in investment world. Because in this crypto currency world, being strong means you are very patient and you don't get easily swayed by FUDs and when you have weak hands means you are impatient and can be easily swayed  by FUDs and other people.

The core of the investment is to be patient, when we see the price drop then do not ever panic and rest assured that the price immediately skyrocketed because bitcoin since last 2 years like this and of course with strong hands then we will be successful and become a millionaire. ;) ;)

Yeah sure it was you have to be more wise in here. You have to be more carefully in picking things. Make sure that your complaint if you choose one and use your brain all the time if you don't you lose.

I think patience makes all the difference. Those with patience don't get stressed out when the market goes down. They can see ahead of the valley

I disagree, if we cannot blame weak hands for their actions and for losing their money then who are we going to blame? Are we going to blame the market, the whales, the exchanges, the media, because that is not going to work, we are completely responsible for our actions and weak hands by selling their coins for a bad price have decided to lose their money, it is that simple.

Most of them get into cryptocurrencies without further reasearching about it resulting to panic if they lose small amount of their investment.

It is good for the market to invite new possible investors but we should be responsible in giving them enough information to avoid FUD's.

Indeed. I am agree with you. Same as you, I also calm when I saw bitcoin was in its downfall, I badly wants to buy more bitcoin because I know when the price hits again in his high peak you can earn a big profit. However, even if it is our strategy some bitcoinist has also their own tactics on how they earn profit if this scenario came up. It depends on us how we handle this kind of situtation.

that is one of more reasons why people ends up in negative profit because they were become a panic seller they dont want to hold because of their limited knowledge of cryptocurrency once they bought coins and the price goes down they will sell or else they will lose that was the mind set of them.

Exactly! That is a very nice, very impressive way of saying it. When investing in electronic money, weak hands will lose money, strong hands will make a profit. Those who know how to invest in this field are very successful. They give up capital 1 but profits can increase 5 or 7 times.

Even in the sayings that is really the truth , for weaks hands lose money,while strong hands make profits in this organizations, this is just a saying but the truth those who are hardworking will make good profits ,then those who are not in hard work will simply profit low or less.

Sometimes durability and consistency are the important things to gain more profit.
And also in investment and trading world, money and risk management are always be the most important thing.

It all depends on patience and proper observation, investing in bitcoin is not as easy as turning our palms.

i agree, those speculators who panics at down trends will surely loose and fail in trading their asset, some of them are just testing the waters, when the downtrend occurs, they usually bail out thinking they will loose their money, it is all about timing and selling at the right moment, just be patient in hodling, those panic sellers are not investing their extra money, that is why they panic, again, invest only what you can afford to loose.

I agree, if someone takes out their money to invest in cryptocurrency just to get profit without being accompanied by deep knowledge about cryptocurrency I guess they have a weak hand and will cause losses someday. But those who know how cryptocurrency works and he knows what will happen on their cryptocurrency will have a strong hand and will get a lot of profit. This is only an option, the choice of getting profit and the choice of getting a failure and I guess someone will know where they will choose.

I totally agree with this its our decision that we lose our money in this kind of market. Its our greed that control us when we are at bull market or uptrend, We all want the whole pie not the slice of the pie but we didnt realize that we need to secure our profit first. And when the market is on bear or downtrend. We sell out of fear that we lose all our money. Bad decisions make us lose money.

Most newbies see one of the bitcoin prices actually dropping, we are saddened by the circumstances feeling frightened that it may be intolerable back then and we fell nervous goes down on our nerves, and all of us are selling bitcoins because it can not go up fot of great value. But a strong and firm emotion will remain silent and just follow the waves to keep calm.and they remained make profits and earn more bitcoin.

I agree with this expression. because if you want something to achieve in this life you have to be strong and then everything will turn out

It is all and all your personal thinking and your will power to face any kind of risk boldly which make you either weak or strong.

as long as you can research about the market, you don't need to be weak hands because I am sure that you might find something that useful for you and you can still hold any coins you have especially hold bitcoin. being weak hands in the market will make you lose a big money and you cannot survive in the cryptocurrency. only keep strong and still hold while you can search the information about the conditions that will make you survive in the crypto market. so if you still want to stay at the market, don't be weak hands because this will not help you to make money if you sell your coins.

No weak hands,converting to fiat is for pussies,lol just kiding. But what do you think about trading if you hold some btc and eth? Would you dare to daytrade and hopefully collect more btc,more eth and more fiat along the way or is it just better to simply hold?

That is really just theory. And most of them want to get the profits they need to have good knowledge. Good skills will be successful in this area. And that shows that the path to a quick destination is just the effort every day.

yep weak hands will lose money mostly newbies will panic sell, well lesson to them that these crypto will go up again except those shitcoins that will no longer increase.

Some are indeed weak hands "weekend hodlers", people that will sell at the first dump and buy at the first pump, people trying to trade (or hold) like the lottery. They are bound to lose.

But I think that this is not only about weak hands. It's about lack of experience, it's about the lack of patience, it's about not properly research about a project before investing in it and not trying to find out why a pump or dump has happened, it's about people hearing (and believing!) that they will get rich from cryptocurrencies no matter what. They are not really weak hands, they just behave in the way they get manipulated.

For me it depends upon the situation. I have experience holding my coins desperately unfortunatenly it has already at it's peak and i was not able to earned its highest value because i am holding it. So better understand hold and sell your coins.

The knowledge is needed even if you are planning to hammer a nail into the board. When you deal with the crypto, you have to learn everything about it all the time.

Exactly, Knowledge is important when we deal with crypto, but sometimes knowledge is not enough to avoid a loss, because with only  knowledge you can't be able to predict the market price, so the best combination is both of luck and knowledge.

In my own opinion bitcoins should be classified as an asset and in this industry, it was better to have patience rather than having a strategy since the market price is volatile.

I think that this rule is suitable for every area imaginable, weak loose, strong ones win. In crypto this works as well because it require your mind to be extremely durable.

If we have weak personality, it is not impossible to lose money. For sure, with the weak personality we have, we will be shy and timid to grab opportunities that surrounds us. While if we are strong in personality, we are sure to have more profit. More opportunities to earn and gain. Because having strong personality is one way to have power and have impact.
