Title: What's your exit strategy? Will you sell as the price goes down from here?
Post by: btcprice on November 27, 2013, 06:06:31 PM
A lot of us have been through these bubbles before. A lot of us held and held only to have the price go to a fraction of the top of the bubble.

Will you sell a percentage if the price drops a certain amount? Will you sell another percentage of your bitcoins if it drops another amount?

Are you holding for the long-run and will not sell no matter how low the price gets?

I don't think you 'll find a lot of people here willing to exit. There are some that sell for speculative reasons but most of the guys here are the "hoard forever and ever" type of holders.

Bitcoin is the exit strategy.

A F22 pilot would disagree.

/thread

Bitcoin is not some penny stock to make some quick buck and "exit".

The Secondmarket listing indicates against that.

Yes, now is good time to spend some just in case the price crashes. But obviously if you have a lot of coins, you have to sell some at exchange

Well it depends on at which point you entered.
I entered to the Bitcoin world when BTC was 100 USD so I had my original investment * 10 right now.
Also got some Litecoins and made reasonable profit from that.
I am super cool but I wont consider I lost money if BTC goes down to 700 USD tomorrow (because actually I did not).
If the bubble plops and BTC goes down I might sell a little bit if I consider I will be able to
buy cheaper later.
Even if it goes down to 400 USD I am a winner here since two months ago I got some BTC for saving
and that I did ...

I haven't even stated a position. You have no idea what I intend to do.

I expected answers like these when I posted this topic though.

Just ask him to provide a signed message for his bitcoin wallet. He's wannabe early investor, but sadly not the cute kind.

Are you holding for the long-run and will not sell no matter how low the price gets?

I sold 900 today.  Thinking about whether to buy back if the price falls below $800.  If not, I am buying apartments.

I am still in 4 figures on Bitcoin and have a new KNC miner doing its magic.  I just wanted to lock in the gains since June.  Totally agree that the price is still low but its a market and as such not predictable.

FWIW the tone was certainly questionable but I don't think it was intended to sound quite as blunt as it did.

That's kind of the way I look at it too. I intend to sell a percentage (I haven't decided how much) if it gets down to a certain level. After that if it gets lower I'll sell another portion.

Eventually I would like to sell enough so that my original investment is paid for. After that I'll sit on my bitcoins made from profit until the next run-up.

Exit strategy:

Step 1: Secure a few BTC

Step 2:  Buy a private island with BTC

Step 3: Live on my private island!
