Guys help me out here to understand.

So I bought BTC at 6200 and its now almost 6700. Now should I sell it and go to USTD, or go for something like XRP/BTC or ZRX/BTC?

I won't sell Bitcoin, you have to know that Bitcoin is up to $20,000. A little bit of your current rise is simply insignificant. If you want to invest in other altcoins, it is best to use other funds. Do not sell bitcoin.

Mate its up to you if you want to hold or sale, but the best way is if you dont want to lose just sale it in high price in stablecoin like usdt then buy back in low price just do it if you want a profit but if you are a long term holder just buy some altcoin.

I only invested $2,300 in BTC so its not all that much.

For now, it may be better to keep holding bitcoin.
Because most altcoin is still in a downward trend, the capital amount of the whole market is insufficient.

If you have already started with bitcoin, stay with bitcoin, it should grow very well, maybe we'll even see 30,000, so patience is my friend, bitcoin does best of all X

Depends on your strategy.
Sell half of profit and buy some alts to maximize profits
like with them

I would not advice you to sell you BTC right now because it's still going to moon by the last quarter of the year only if you can hodl till then.

If you just jump in to crypto is better hold that BTC until in the end of this year because many expert predict bull run of Bitcoin will coming soon.  Many expert predict the price of BTC can be going to $50K to $60K in last of this year.  And this prediction according to many good news coming like bitcoin  ETF in August and Coinbase add more new coin. The current  price of BTC in the bottomed base on technical analysis,  so big probability will going up again to more than 3 times.

At least wait till the price reach 7k USD.  I don't believe the price will reach 20k, because even when it reach 10k again everybody will dump and the price will go down again.

Help me out here.. So if I invested 2300 when BTC was at $6241 (0.38843814) How can I calculate approx. profit when it goes to 30K?  Is there a calculator i can use or something?  Sorry but all new to this

If I were in your shoes (and I hope we have the same size and same brand I prefer Adidas) I would wait for some months before selling the Bitcoin unless of course you are into trading which can be a different story. I know that these days holding on may not be the best route for a profitable cryptocurrency experience but make an exception with Bitcoin. I can feel that Bitcoin is just looking for some reasons before making a big breakout or a big bull run and everybody in the Bitcoin community has been waiting for this to happen soon. Having said that, I have to warned you that am not a good seer of things and just like you I also committed many many blunders in my cryptocurrency adventure. Therefore, good luck to all of us.

At this time you should keep it . The reason of that is it’s gonna grow and grow. You just need to be patient and your patience will reward you big time! And don’t trade it nowhere you gonna regret if you do that!

Well, a little price increase won't give you a bigger profit. Just a small increase from your initial investment. Especially if the amount you invested is not that huge. My suggestion for you is to hold on for a little while and then sell when it reaches its peak. If you want to invest in other coins, I think it is better off coming from other sources of funds instead of your BTC.

Currently, I will advise you to hold bitcoin, do not sell it - the price is sure to increase . At least until the end of the year you need to wait with the sale .

Is there a form of calculator where you put in the future bitcoin price, and your initial investment and it give you amount of profit?

Hold Bitcoin, go to USDT or go to Altcoins it's up to you. You just need to understand that the best decision is a decision made based on your observations but, you also need to understand that there is a proverb about " Don't put all your eggs in one basket ".

Never try to convert your money to the XRP because it's a shit coin and even coinbase doesn't having any attention to add ripple consider it's a crap token. It will much better to invest in the ZRX but i could suggest you to convert your bitcoin to the USDT if you can do that because it gives the more guarantee for your profit.

better to hold on your BTC, but if you still want to buy altcoin you can do research on them first, don't rush when you want to invest in altcoin, and never put all of your money on altcoin if it crash it crash hard, and quick. Moreover if you are still new in this crypto world, my advice is learn more first about any altcoin you want to put your money on, before you put any money on them.

It depends on your strategy & what you want.
If you sell BTC for USD now, your profit is fixed at $500 (6700- 6200)
If you use BTC to buy XRP..., then its price may increase of decrease => You can get more or less profit.

Depends on what you want. If you go to usdt, then you will earn the difference between buying and selling. If you go to altcoin, then pay attention to the cost of altcoin at the time of buying bitcoin at 6200 (maybe at that time ZRX cost 0.000134 and now 0.000167). This way you will get fewer coins than a few days ago.

If you are trader/risk taker. Go trade/sell it because your profit is increase from now. But my advise is to hold from now until december, because i observe december is the pumping of the value of the Coins. Goodluck dude.

I have doubts that he is a trader, if it were so then there would be no such questions)).
In General, you are right, we should wait, after the market reversal, we can analyze and plan.

analysis is essential, so you should try to do it. and I still believe bitcoin will still grow to 10% in this growth, you can still hold it.
but if you want to sell it, you can do a short trade. there are many ways but I think experience will play an important role in every speculation.

Thanks will wait till 7200 and take it from there

in your comments it is not mention what kind of help you are asking for, but I can guess you want to know about cryptocurrency my advice for you is you should hold your coins now cause you are still confused about your investment which not a good thing, we must be more educated about this market, read until you can confidently choose your transactions, all the best

BTC might have seen a dip in early quarter of 2018 however, its recovering faster than before. It would be wise to buy ALTcoins using fiat currency and wait for BTC price to go up again.

Bitcoin is from the very beginning dominating the crypto industry. So, despite having some price decrease, it will surely dominate once again by its price, I think. Hence, my perception is not to sell BTC if it is not at $20000 rather you may buy some BTC whenever the market is at a low ebb.

I would not sell Bitcoin at all in your place, since the growth will not stop there. Ripple in any case do not take now with him at all it is not clear what will happen.

In my opinion you should not sell your bitcoins because price will growth higher in near future so hold will be more profitable for you

Don't sell it yet, I've heard rumors bitcoin will increase its value by the end of the year. You see, price increased to 7400 and I think it will increase more.
Do whatever you think you should do, you asked for an advice and my is https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=375643.0

If I were you I would not sell Bitcoin, hold your Bitcoin because I saw a positive move from Bitcoin, even now I see Bitcoin already touching $ 7400, not impossible going back up to $ 8000. if you want to invest in altcoin, use other funds and do not sell your bitcoin now!

Bitcoin will go up and there is no doubt in that. If i were you i will hold into it and wait for the bull market. Almost all altcoins are in downtrend so far so its better to keep your bitcoin and dont play with it

I'm wondering, how will you make a decision depending on different opinions in this topic?

If you have good technical analysis you should try to increase your Bitcoin number. Currently, all altcoins are affected by the price increase or decrease of bitcoin. So keeping Bitcoin is the safest in my opinion. Bitcoin can increase sharply but I'm not sure the exact time. I expect strong growth for the market by the end of 2018.

I think that was a good price to buy at, 6200.  I would leave that bitcoin alone and wait for the next dip and then buy one more bitcoin if you can and then use that as your trading coin to try to move in and out.  In my opinion, this is a sector that you should hodl some coins with bitcoin being the first that you hodl.  You should diversify and have a strategy for active trading as well as holding long term certain coins.  This is not financial advice, i'm not a financial advisor... just my opinion.

I think that it is not worthwhile to sell bitcoin in this time, because you can get much more profit after a while, bitcoin will soon be more than $ 8000.

Not, sell all you BTC to buy altcoins is not good idea, because when BTC will grow, altcoins like XRP or ZRX are down, everyone is selling alts to buy BTC and catch a growth. So it is not smart decision enough I guess.

If you want to invest in other altcoin, you can move it without selling. Since you entered Bitcoin, wait for the price to increase. The change in your price has not changed much.

For my point of view now the time to keep your bitcoin. Most of the altcoin is declining. Its happen because the capital of the whole market is not enough. So I think it’s the best time to hold your coin.

Its not advisable to sell this time bec.the market is doing great and its a sign that the market  would be back to normal,just be positive with it,youre with bitcoin a promising coin,if youre not in need financially so just hold it surely it will continue to grow and earn huge profit.

don't sell it if you want to make a big profit and hold it because bitcoin price will continue to increase. may be bitcoin can't reach 20k like before but I believe bitcoin at least will reach 10k or more in the end of year. bitcoin is good for long term investment.

I thinlk I will keep my all BTC for the right time. You may sell it out but I guess staying with BTC will provide you more profit in this cryptoworld.

There's no doubt that bitcoin will give a good return of investment in the long run. However if you want a better return of investment. Then invest it in altcoin or ICO but take note that the risk is higher.

Do not sell bitcoin, or buy cryptocurrencies that have many plans for development and a great future. For example Zilliqa or Aeternity.

BTC have a potentiality which is why the price is slowly building up. It would be wise to buy ALTcoins if you want to exchange, although paitence is always key. The initiation is not how quickly you exchange between currencies. Looking at the trend, Bitcoin seems to be growing, so my advice is wait up until it hits the 7000 mark, than exchange if better currencies seem to have a faster rate of growth.

If you are a long term investors then i think hold coin is the best option for you. Because in recent time other coins prices are falling down. So wait some times for stability of the market.

I will suggest you not to sell it right now because I think very soon the price of btc will raise and than you can sell it with high price and you will be benefitted. So it will be wise if you hold it right now.

Based on your question, it sounds like you prefer trading than holding. If you are planning to multiply the number of your bitcoin, the best trading pair is USDT so that you will be able to minimize your losses when the market gets down. You better trade your funds to a stable coin if you choose to be a day trader or swing trader.

I do not think that it will be a wise decision to sell bitcoin as you know that bitcoin is worth more. Now it has increased a little and it has the possibility to rise more and so I will suggest not to sell btc now.

No need to worry about it OP.

Bitcoin is now worth $8,200 so you don't have to worry about it. You can now sell as you wish to do so before when you see dropping. But I wish that you never listened to other suggestions that wanted you to sell bitcoin and invest to those altcoins.

Only if you are quite patient, you're smiling probably now.

I think the best thing you should do is to hold your btc as this had increased more than $8K now and most probably btc will still continue to increase further until Q4 of 2018. Anyway it's your decision to make, our's is just to give you some advise that could probably make an option for you to decide which among the best suggestion you will consider.

Stay with bitcoin it is best coin in all alt coins.Invest in this project for long term.It gives you be more profit and depend on your work with bitcoin.If you take risk you get profit surely.

You need HOLD bitcoin now due to the latest news.The current situation with government regulation suggests that bitcoin-ETF, that is, traded funds, will soon become a legitimate asset class. This, of course, will lead to a sharp increase in the rate of the Crypto currency.Interest in ETF among the crypto-enthusiasts is growing, and, probably, the matter is primarily in greed - the appearance of such funds will inevitably affect the cost of bitcoin and make it a more legitimate means of storing capital, as well as a means of exchange.Any economist will say that when the supply is already low and the demand grows, the price soars.

It's hard to say for sure but yo may want to run the Bitcoin train a bit higher than what it is now.  I think Bitcoin will out perform the market for a bit longer.  I would wait to sell. 

it seems to me that bitcoin is more stable than XRP or ZRH or others. and as the graphs of research show, all these coins depend on the price of bitcoin

I don't imagine that it will be an insightful choice to offer bitcoin as you realize that bitcoin is worth more. Presently it has expanded a little and it has the likelihood to rise progressively thus I will recommend to hold bitcoin rather than sale.

i think keep your bitcoin is the best choice my friend
i don't even think about XRP and zrx , if you want to buy altcoins just buy ethereum  ;)
regards

well not sure if bitcoin will go for $20,000 but his right that it will increase the price. doing if your investing on other currency try to buy with other monry. But if your money is all in bitcoin then it your decision short term invesror is not bad idea. If you think that other coin has a potential by doing research go with it every investor has their own strategy to get prpfit.

you have got the growth of the purchase price, why should you leave the bitcoin? to convince you can see the price at the end of the previous year which bitcoin prices soar, if this situation returns this year then your struggle in storing bitcoin will be very fortunate.

Maybe you are new in the cryptocurrency, so I would like to suggest you "Think bigger with cryptocurrency"
You were confused to sell when bitcoin price was 6700 USD With 500 USD Profit from your investment. I don't know you sold or not if you haven't sold then try to take a lesson from it that bitcoin price hit 8200 USD After 5-6 days later of your this post!
So, hold them for another pump, or if you sold already then you have already learned  ;)

No, don`t sell. Put it on HOLD. And be very patient. Try to but more when prices are low. Because in the future prizes will become skyhigh.

I wouldn't advise that you sell your bitcoins for any reason. Bitcoin price is going to increase way higher than what it is now, and it is not something that you would want to miss out on. So hodl your BTC, then maybe invest other funds on your altcoins. That's a way better option.

First of all, I am happy for you, man, secondly, if I am, I will not sell my bitcoin, because I believe Bitcoin will bring me more wealth than you said, for Bitcoin. Guys, I want to tell you, you must hold it for a long time, wait patiently, Bitcoin will surprise you.

try not to offer it on the off chance that you need to make a major benefit and hold it on the grounds that bitcoin cost will keep on increasing. might be bitcoin can't achieve 20k like previously however I accept bitcoin in any event will achieve at least 10k toward the finish of year. bitcoin is useful for long haul venture.

To sell or not to sell. Remember every decision u make, u must think of the lonh term

Hello. Keep bitcoin, it is a litmus test for all tokens, it is their attraction! In no token it is impossible to earn more than bitokin. Hold it.

6200$ is a good price to buy and hold. The market will not come down to $ 6200 early. So just keep it and wait for this August. Bitcoin can go up 10,000$ if good news comes to the market. Especially ETF news

If you will take this advice of mine, it will help you then. I will not advice you to sell now. hold you BTC. but if you will sell, sell little quantity and look out for a good project to invest on. Remember to do research yourself before investing on any project, never follow all these hyping of projects because most of them are deceitful. I wish you happy investment return.

6200 Was a good price to buy, worth holding.  But perhaps not all, you could sell some and try to make up the amount sold, by trading the ups and downs with your BTC.
Just buying some alts won't do, use the graphs to check your entry point compared to the graphs of the Alts you are interested in.  Might be that that value has just moved with the BTC-price.  It would't be such an increase of your portfolio, but maybe there are Alts that have decreased in that period, they might be worth just a small part of your BTC to invest in.
But in the long run your BTC will rise more probably, which is a certain gain, might even be impossible to buy again at the price you sell:).

Practically you have made some profit which is very impressive. All you need do now is take profit then buy back at when it dips (if it dips). You should take profit and hodl the rest.

Enjoy atlcoin where you can get the trust you are traiding for the more money you get. or if you join a bounrt to receive tokens and sell at the right time

It depends on you mate if you may trade to other currency to be hold or just sell into usdt. But that increase of bitcoin is too low mate to say that you gain a profit especially if you bought bitcoin with a small quantity.

Well, Bitcoin is actually very great for holding. If you only get around that amount of the profits, I suggest you to hold the coins. Wait for some months later at least in this year end when the price is higher. But after higher, save some of your money to buy the bitcoin again when the price is dropped. You can also use the money to buy some promising altcoins.

Oh come on, what do you think about investing in bitcoin? Do you know how's huge potential of bitcoin? 6200 up to 6700 is a simple increased and  there's a big possibility that it may reach an expensive price in the next few months. But of course it is up to you if you want to convert just do, make your own decision.

If you have not sold your bitcoins so far, now is the time to do it and transfer your funds to USDT, because in the near future it is expected to reduce the cost of bitcoin to at least $ 7200 and a maximum of $ 5600

Firmly holding BTC, BTC still has a bright future. ;D
At present, BTC is at a very low price, so it only needs to keep holding.

But I will not sell Bitcoin at all at your place, because growth will not stop there. Ripples in any case do not take now with him is not at all clear what will happen.

The feeling alone is so good when you hold some BTC in your wallet. The King of coins can experience a very high rise to surprise you. I won't exchange it for any other alts. To me is the final destination.

In the current period of time, the growth of the purchased asset can be considered a great success, so the money should be withdrawn and saved.

I don't think that your decision of selling was titally right. I mean that if you are holding BTC, do not change it and just wait for its better times there.

You bought bitcoin at a very good price. I'm sure if you're willing to wait a few months then you can make a good profit. My advice is leave bitcoin. I am sure that by the end of the year the price will rise very much. Therefore, it is not necessary to sell bitcoin for usdt.

I agree, there is no point in selling bitcoin now at a small price, because by the end of the year the prices will definitely increase and if you sell now, you will miss the opportunity to earn.

just hold it for now. It's a good sign that Bitcoin is getting stronger in the market.

You have to decide how are you going to approach the whole crypto investment thing.

- Are you going to trade regularly? Daily? Do you have any skills in trading? If you don't you'll get rekt. Learn some things before you start trading. TA, FA, indicators... so much good and free stuff all around the web. But you'll still get rekt even after that, it just takes time to do things right.
- Are you going to hold? Don't be dumb, just holding through market cycles gets people rekt as well. Try to spot at least the major market cycles, sell near the top, buy again a few months later. Repeat.
- How much do you want to earn? Are you happy with 10%? Go with steady coins, huge market cap, they don't oscillate as much as some others. Go bitcoin, go ethereum if you think it's in bull market. Wait if you think we're still in a bear market.
- You didn't invest to earn 10%? You want 10x. Or 100x. Go with some small caps no one have heard of. They aren't even on coinmarketcap yet. It's much more risky though so be ready to lose all. Search this forum, everything's in here.

Get some of these things clear first and you'll do much better. But still probably get rekt :) Don't give up. Stay in crypto. The next market cycle, you'll get rekt again. Don't give up. The next cycle, you'll figure it out. The next one, it might work out smoothly ;) Invest time in skills. Get free coins on airdrops if that's of any meaning to you financially. And you'll be good. Cheers!

I'm not a super expert but I've seen an analyst predict the fall of bitcoin to three thousand dollars. Maybe now you need to sell and then buy again.

According to available information, on the past day, someone has transferred to his purse at the Binance Exchange 11500 bitcoins in three installments. Most likely, there will be a sale for the purpose of a strong collapse of the cost of bitcoin. Therefore, whoever has not managed to sell bitcoins at the current price, he must hurry!

Where are the proofs ? Where did you find out that someone has transfered such a huge amount of Bitcoins ?

I suggest you to sell a part of it and to continue holding, this strategy will minimize your losses and you will get confident profits from this doing.

My suggestion to you is do not sell your bitcoin at this low price in the market, if you want to earn a little just buy other legit coins and look at the market price monitoring if it is better to sell or not, but do not sell your bitcoin..

The best decision to take about your fund depends on you because you own it but I think you should still hold and for a while until the price gets higher and then you will be able to make reasonable profit.

I think that idea about Tether is the best. But you should follow plice very often and sell/buy BTC again. This is one of a good strategies of trading.

It is entirely up to you if you sell it or not. If you want to hodl it long term and believe that bitcoin will boom then it is your choice.

Once you sell you have nothing to catch new rises. Only sell if you are sure that you´ve made enough profit for your goals and you are sure that the price is going to lower in the near future.

If you have good amount of bitcoin, then you can sell it and get profits easily...If I'm on your situation, I will not sell with that price I should wait for the best price to come. You just need patient in this situation.
