Hello again.

This time i would like to ask you guys of your opinion and experience in what kind of market is better for short term investing - Bullish or bearish?
And please post why your opinion is like that.

Thanks

When it is bearish you tend to be more disciplined as you are forced to scalp and take profits frequently, rather than large swings during bulls that can be profitable but also make you sloppy. Both obviously can be successful, but you must apply correct strategy.

Anyone who's interested in one type of market will eventually fail, you have to make plans for both types of markets.

There are times we can make quick profit from Bullish market and we must take those opportunities by staying up to date about market conditions, and also we have to study the long term analysis done by researchers about the future of the market, not just referring one source, but from many sources and use that to our advantage too.

Ofcourse bullish since you have only limited time for short term investing

I love bearish  market when talking about long term invest in because we will be having lots of chances buying coins to add in our long term coins.thats how i find the difference of bearish and bullish market

Both are good but for the persons with experience and knowledge.  For a raw man both are dangerous.  First gain knowledge only then enter in short term trading.  Also put a small percentage of your money in such trading or else entire amount may be swept away.  
Time will teach you more lessons but some persons have to pay very fees to the markets for getting such experience.
Remember your profit will mostly will be the loss of some other person.  And whenever you loss it means someone else has earned that amount.

We have both stand on this matter,since bearish brings us here in so many dip market this bear keeps the prices falling,but in bullish growth is always on track many of the people keep profit in bull.

But lets admit that its bullish is more profitable than bearish thats the main agenda here how we accept the reality that bear can kill the market soon

I love the bearish market when talking about long-term investments because we will have many chances of buying coins to add in our long-term coins. That's how I find the difference But playing in the market to have 10-30 percent profit in every purchase and sale will be good with this token price. Long-term detention does not depend on price but on the project, white paper and project development will be a big factor. Self-study is always best to choose tokens to hold and not to ask others

Bearish market is the best short term investment because the price of almost all tokens or coins are dropped down and there are fluctuation every now and then and that makes you gain every trade. Bullish market is like for long term investment because mostly it will last 3 to 4 months before it will stop running.

I think you should invest in the long term, as it will help you much more, bring no profit rloof for you.

yep, the best strategy can change all possibilities
and the key to it all is patience, never be in a hurry
a lot of people panicked that later on he regretted having done the wrong thing

Again, if you are really into short term investing, no matter what the sentiments of the market, you will know how to make money so you will have to make the necessary adjustments. You will hear people loves bearish trend to short, because they will always buy in dips and just wait for the price to increase in 3 days and then sold off. With bullish trends seems to be good for a HODL. So its really up to you and adapt the current conditions.

These are the times when no one is sure whether market will be bullish or bearish in the short term. but looking at the last 1 week and with etf approval decision coming out on 10th August we will see a lot of volatility in market. Still the market seems bullish in short term.

I always said to invest in crypto for long time, long term holding will bring you profit no matter what the amount is,
a profit is always a profit.
Long term holding is lesser risky and profitable, other hand short term is more risky and not that profitable.

could be bearish. investment and in the long run, will only make the bitcoin stay for too long and not an increase in any volume.

Short time investment ? i think it is suitable in both market, bear market or bull market.
But if you want long term investment, you can buy coin in the bear market for best time and keep holding your coins.

The bull market is always better and does not matter long-term or short-term you are an investor. Any rise in prices on a currency exchange is always a positive phenomenon.

Bear or Bull ni matter of what the short term investment with bitcoin is always risky so you need to be careful with your joldings the prices may shift in very short term.But the bull run is really for hodling when we know that this run will end we may need to see our coins because normally there will be a dump after the huge bump.

There's nothing guarantees you will make a profit when investing in cryptocurrency in a bearish market or bull market, both are have the same risk.

However, when you have understood the market conditions of cryptocurrency you will not ask when you will start for short term or long term investment. Because in these conditions will have a big gap to get profit.

Just focus on market cryptocurrency, usually people who understand market conditions are a trader, you can learn more the characteristics of market, like how to analyze market movements? There is a technical analysis and fundamental analysis that you must understand.

I think for short-term investments it is better to choose bullish because it will be more profitable in that investment

I would say both are okay for short term investment. An important fact to note is to be cautions and not be greedy. But most perfect is during a bullish reign as you can invest and make little then you remove your capital and gain. Only a pro can do short term investment with a bearish market because you wouldn't know when the dip will end.

Both are suitable for short time investment. If you invest in bearish market you will surely get profit. But may be you have to wait for a long time.
Bullish market can give you profit within a short time. But it is very risky. You have to gain more knowledge before investing. Because in recent situation both are full of high risk.
That's why I will suggest for long-term investment.

Why do people even go in for the short game in any sort of market? You're setting yourself up for failure if you're trying to invest in something which is crazily volatile -- bitcoin or any other alt --  and then trying to do it short term which is like trying to time a market which is insanely volatile anyway. People say don't try to time the stock market, let alone trying to time Bitcoin which has literally 'died' multiple times -- https://99bitcoins.com/bitcoinobituaries/ -- and then has came back swinging every single time. Don't go for the short game, you're most likely going to lose. Go in for the long game, it's the only thing which has worked so far....

Right now market seems bullish. These are the times when no one is sure whether market will be bullish or bearish in the short term. but looking at the last 1 week and with etf approval decision coming out on 10th August we will see a lot of volatility in market. Still the market seems bullish in short term.

It is quite obvious that Bear market is 100% better to invest in time of that, because the prices in this game are decreasing and getting lower so you can buy more.

U need to make a plan for both strategy because in bullish trend coin entry time should be right also exit time, we can use some tools and indicators for trading like moving average. in bearish market Peoples trade in downtrend market and no one know where market is going but definitely is possible we can make profit but market research and chart knowledge is more important than blind trade.

It's better to invest in the bullish market because it's easier to earn profit here. But you do not have to buy back especially when making that can dump immediately because its price especially when that peak is the most high price.

There is no easy money in crypto market even nowhere on So if you can catch bullish market , you will be supposed yourself lucky. 
But i never suggest , short term invesment.

I believe that today, you can be both a bear and bulls. Why? Because today there is just a huge number of different coins. And each coin is profitable in its own way.

Bullish and bearish is almost the same expectations or expectations, with rising or falling stock prices (certain or index in general) in the stock.

The risk of short-term market is huge. If it is new investors, it is easy to lose money in short-term market. My advice is to invest as much as possible in mainstream coins and hold them for a long time. Although the market has been rising rapidly in recent days, the short-term market is not easy to make profits.

IMO, bearish and bullish markets are both good for short term trading as long as you have good skills. An experienced trader is able to make good trades regardless of the market situation.

These are the times when no one is sure whether market will be bullish or bearish in the short term. but looking at the last 1 week and with etf approval decision coming out on 10th August we will see a lot of volatility in market. Still the market seems bullish in short term.

both can be good as long as you know how to steer in the market in a way to make profit. for example in a bull market you need to be able to get in before the price reaches the top and sell be fore it starts its correction. then on a bear market the reverse of the same thing but also there is margin trading for that.
in the end it will come down to your experience and willingness to try some strategies.

We have our own unique strategy on how to go with short term investing. You can take advantage whether it's bullish or bearish.

But the normal strategy, everyone buys during the bearish market and waits until the market grows a bit and sell when you got 5% - 10% depending on how much you gained.

As long as you can take out with the profit that's what you can do.

Even when the market is bearish, one can still make little profits...it all depends on your strategy and technical knowledge of a particular coin that point in time.

Exactly, its all dependent on when the buying occurred. Both market trends can be used for short term gains as long as the individual can strategies and sell at the right moments.

I believe that it is better to have a long term investment and most likely it would be better to buy cryptocurrency during the bear market while market price value is low. Short term investment is not advisable if you want to experience a much better profit. I believe that traders are more favorable in short term investment because even if the profit is not high for as long as there is profit they tend to trade right after.

i think for short term investment it will work for both, bullish or bearish. For short term investment, you just need to find a low price point in the market, and sell them immediately when it is higher even for a little increment. For long term, you must buy it at the bearish market because your long term holding will not be paid if you not buy it in the bearish market.

Right now market seems bullish. These are the times when no one is sure whether market will be bullish or bearish in the short term. but looking at the last 1 week and with etf approval decision coming out on 10th August we will see a lot of volatility in market. Still the market seems bullish in short term.

Short or long term I always prefer to be bullish only, Bitcoin give you long and lasting results when you hold it and then you see the results, so far my theory has always been seeing it bullish and I have got good results people who try to see the short game always loose cause they get fooled that it's going down and when they sell it shoots up. Look at people from 2009 they always were bullish and they made excellent gains.

Short term investment is a great option in times when the market is going down. I usually buy as soon as the market goes down and sell it as soon as it grows again but that is just some potential virtual currency except bitcoin. Because I invest in long term with bitcoin

I always try to invest with new fiat during the downtrend. it can be both long or short time. I entered into crypto space  Aug 2017 last year during China fud so i enjoyed bull run luckily. and don't have any experience investing during the bull run because I cashed out my 80% portfolio during that period. now accumulating and reinvesting slowly.

These are the times when no one is sure whether market will be bullish or bearish in the short term. but looking at the last 1 week and with etf approval decision coming out on 10th August we will see a lot of volatility in market. Still the market seems bullish in short term.

ust focus on market cryptocurrency, usually people who understand market conditions are a trader

When you choose the short-term investment method, you must be flexible in investing

It all depends as always. You need to read the markets correctly and try to predict what can happen in the nearest future. You can definately make money on both markets but I think it's easier to short trade on a bullish market.

You have to prepare the method for both cases if you want to make a profit from short-term investment

You can do short term investment in either bull or bear markets. Both types of markets prices are fluctuating. So, the profits depends on the difference between buying and selling prices. All you need to do is to set your plan properly.


Day trade or short time investment in exchange are cool, but if you want to choose the right token to get into will be the price.
Less than 500 satoshis are good to have in day trading and also in long term.
But playing in market to have 10-30 percent profit in every buy and sell will be a good with this token price.
Long term holding are not depending on the price but on the project, white paper and project development will be a big factor.
Self research is always the best to choose the token to hold and not asking to other as some people are just riding on the hype of the coins.

It all depends on your knowledge and skills, and you can trade and make profit both on a bullish and bearish trend. Bearish trend reduces the cost of your savings as a whole, but you can still make money by buying during the fall and selling at a temporary price rise.

Bear markets are more risky because when trying to short you can lose if not quick enough. However, in a bull market, you will simply fail to get high profits, but unlikely to lose much

Bear markets are more risky. If you want some day trading or short investing you need to focus and put some time on it because when the peak change you'll loss your money if you not sell it quickly.

It doesn't matter whether the trend is Bearish or Bullish until you strategy is making you gains. For example buying the dips and selling in the bull market will make you gains. The vice versa of it could be done in the bear market to get the same gains. What my point here is, a good trader can make a strategy for any trend that will result in a profit. So practice to trade in any kind of market.

I never prefer short term or bear market investment because first of all the profit is always small and the most important thing is you need to spend more time here.

it depends on your definition of "shot-term" . some might say a week , others may say a month . Either way , short term investing in crypto holds high risks as market can get into a bearish trend for quite long time like what's happening now .
Experienced trader can make profits in either markets .For instance, if you know market is going down , you can sell your coins and buy again at lower prices .
 this way you obviously didn't make profits but increased your stacks of coin which will make you money once market is up again.

I dont understand, what do you mean by bearish or bullish investment? There is always good investment opportunity when it is the bearish trend. Everyone should know that because bearish trend calls for lower prices and lower prices means that cheaper coins, discounted prices etc. The more you buy in this period the more bulk discount you get by that. I think this is the only investment which later on turns into the profits whenever there is bullish trend. So this is what my explanation is, bearish always turns back into the bull and thus we can increase our profits that way.
