Bitcoin Forum

Bitcoin price seems to be taking u turn.  Few months back it fell from the heights of the sky, if not to the depth of the sea; but certainly to the levels of earth.  Many investors burnt their fingures in this dive.  Many new investors have to face big loses which they hope to recover when price rises.

I have little experience in stocks markets and the circumstances here in bitcoin / crypto currency market are not much different.  So I share my views here.  May be some members having better opinions / views / experience; are welcome to share with all'

Now after long recession in the market; bitcoin has started looking upwards.  In my opinion this is the time when one should enter in the market.  If you are interested in medium term investment; you should start now.  Because once the price rise to higher levels coins will be costing you higher.

First of all this market is full of speculations.  So you may gain big profits but at the same times be ready for loss.  Check your surplus funds which if lost does not affect your daily life.  And you are able to meet your daily expenses without burden.

Never use borrowed funds ; because time of return is not fixed.  You may gain in 15 day and it may take months to gain that much amount.  Never pledge / sell your home at any cost; because home is must to live in but without bitcoin we can survive.  I am noting this point here because on many occassions I read few posts asking "Shall I sell my home to invest in bitcoin".

Now suppose you are capable to buy 10 bitcoins with your surplus funds.  You buy it suppose @ $7 k means you spent $70k for buying plus charges.  Now you just keep pateince.  Because it seems start of bull run; just keep watching.  

Suppose the prices crosses & 14k in the month of December this year.  The best action as per my opinion will be you just sell 5 btc @ 14k and cover your entire investment.

Now the remaining bitcoins in your wallet are just free for you.  You are free to take any type of risk with these bitcoins.

One more point need to be noted is ; never put all the eggs in one basket; invest prudently in diversified portfolios.  

Your comments welcome;  All the best wishes to all the friends on bitcoin forum  ;D.  Pardon if I am wrong

Edit
sorry I wrote that remaining five bitcoins are free to you.  these are not free ; you earned it after taking risk ; with intelligence and patience.  mistake corrected  :)

Your words are correct but building an investment plan/strategy based on the start of the rally in price is not a good plan, prices are currently rising, but there are no signs of continuing this rise as the correction expectations considered.
Concerning loans, you are right.
Your strategy is simple and ideal so do not expect it to happen and do not consider that the cryptocurrency market is so easy.

Yes you are very right that this market is not so easy.  All the times there is fear of losing our initial investment.  But higher the risk higher the profit.  Few more opinions from other members will increase my knowledge too. 

Yes, you just shared your opinion. I like the idea at end of your opinion. Yes, we must be free from risk if we get a chance to take our investment. If we see our investment grew up to 3x to 4x then you should take your investment if you are afraid of your capital.

I think that at this point you should not be bitcoin at the moment, you can see that bitcoin prices have been increasing steadily over the past few years and now are showing signs of slowing down and slightly decreasing. Currently bitcoin is adjusting at $ 7,700 and still going down slightly, I believe you should wait and buy bitcoin at $ 6800, this is a very strong support level and will help boost bitcoin prices.

At this point I think you should only invest in short term and just buy bitcoin at this point, you can see that the market is bearish in the long run. The price of bitcoin and altcoin is constantly changing and difficult to predict, the current time market is moving hard to guess so you should only short-term investment in bitcoin.

Yes, indeed most people expect a very good investment strategy hoping to be profitable for the next few months, crypto market is not the same as other stock markets, crypto market is very risky price fluctuations where the value can go down or rise very quickly not with the value of other stocks very strong up and down slowly and tend to be long, with this increase is not unusual and will continue to increase, risky to fall back confidence people very low they are afraid to repeat the same mistake, I am here just thinking realistically.

I've seen similar topics in 12 april after pump from 6800 to 8000 we crashed downtrend, resistance and loots of AT bullshit. Soo manny investors was catching bitcoin at 9000 and 9500 writing here that it is last chance and after 1,5 month we have new dip at 5800. If i didnt have bitcoin i would buy it now (because i feel unsafe on fiat only) but only with 20-30% of my money i have prepeared for investment into bitcoin and w8 for 6k for another 30% and then at 5500-6500 another 30%.

I dont thing that it is good strategy to w8 for 100% profit than sell half and take any risk with rest because:

1- market dont know where is your 100%. If market is slowly getting strength than i wont sell even with 200% profit. If market is getting ready for dump and im at 30% profit i would sell with 30% profit.
2- Free money are also money. Taking too much risk with them will burn them. Imagine that you bought bitcoin for 1$ for 10 000 $. Now you have 70 mil dolars and you just read your post. You sell 1,5 bitcoin for 10 000 $ and with 69 990 000$ free money you take any risk without thinking jumping into ICO and loosing all. No problem - it was free money

After getting experience you would realise that your entry price does not matter. You should forget about it as soon as you finished transaction. If your prediction is sounth than you should sell. If north than you should buy more. Thinking all the time about entry price makes you doing stupid things like "my prediction as a trader is that price is going to be dumped but i wont sell beacuse i bought higher" and you were right and you are now on big loss.

This time indeed is a good time to enter the market but it ain't the best. IMO, the best time one has got to enter the market is when a coin(especially coins that have a solid background and have real use cases) has been severely dumped from an all-time high. You might wait long but it would surely be profitable if you wait long enough.

Medium to Long term investment, I think bitcoin is one of the best. Of course, the best time is to enter when the price is really low so that you can buy it cheap like today. Yes, it has fallen from as high as $20K. And we never thought that it will make a comeback. However, it slowly showing signs of recovery so we need to enter today and just ride the waves and perhaps we can still salvage this year and reach all-time-highs again.

I agree with you on that investment today is risky but if you put trust and confident of what you invest it would bring a lots of profits and learnings.

Yeah the first crypto rule is never invest more than you are willing to loose.
Everyones strategy in crypto is at the end of the day we must free from risk with good profits. In crypto, Higher the risk. Higher the profits.There is nothing wrong with being a long term holder. However, diversification of risky investments, especially when your paper-profit becomes a huge part of your overall portfolio, is wise. After getting profits taking initial investment back is very good idea so there will be zero risk so you can trade only with outside money. 
Some people joining in pump and dump groups and loosing 30-80 percent of money.
Always trading with stop-loss is good idea now some exchanges like binance supporting stop-loss feature.

Your investment strategy is the same old aged story of buy and hodl. What if by december the bitcoin price is still trading below 7000, it means the strategy has made loses while waiting for months.

That's the basic strategy, people have different action but as long still profitable, little change is fine. Investment strategy mostly only buy top 1 - 3 from the list, using martiangle money management and wait at least 1 year to take profit. Investment look easier than trade but take and split fund is hard, specially when we see one coin go up & up again, there's big interesting to buy it in big number and that's wrong split is important. Keep going and never forget your stop loss.

Huge black is right, there is no way to know that the market is truly making this 'u-turn' that you seem so sure of. The market is a beast, one which can't be predicted in the least. One which will take your money and burn it all when you attempt to time it, or use leverage, or use an unnecessary amount of risk. If you want to TRULY be smart in the market you're going to have to go in for the long game -- which is the only game which has worked up to current in making people a profit (and a substantial one at that) overtime. I also wouldn't be making most of my investments in Crypto, but that's just me.... I'd much rather dedicate a small percentage here if anything.

I have already invested on Bitcoin when it was on its 6k levels. And I am really hoping that this is the start of the bull market. People nowadays really expect that to happen.

I  am +90% sure that your decision and time of entry both are right.  Rest depends on patience .  I hope for the best.

In finance, an investment strategy is a set of rules, behaviors or procedures, designed to guide an investor's selection of an investment portfolio. Individuals have different profit objectives, and their individual skills make different tactics and strategies appropriate.[1] Some choices involve a tradeoff between risk and return. Most investors fall somewhere in between, accepting some risk for the expectation of higher returns.

Investing is very risky, especially in a market where a lot of hype people are also scammers. Risk will always there, at any investment but you must trust the things that you think is right. Don't invest without your proper research, don't listen to anyone and to lessen the risk in this market invest only with a great coins.

Sure thing is, the bull run is coming. That is why your investment strategy seems to work well for you,. Yes, we have different styles and strategies when talking about investing in cryptoccurency. But there is no problem if we consider yours and follow your way.  I am focusing now on the market as i can see my investments are now profiting bec. Of the bull market.

You have promising techniques but not all can use this only those who have the same problem and struggles can benefit through it. Recommended to read it especially for newbies but don't take it in as a sole reason and a strategy to uphold just use this as reference and give the same shot as he did for maybe another chance.

Financial investment is always risky and cryptocurrency investment is the same because the market is not for those with no experience and knowledge. The hardship of the cryptocurrency market is also exacerbated by the news and manipulation of whale investors. Therefore, if you determine your investment in this market, determine your investment in the long run.

I think that at the present time in order to be profitable with the least risk, I think you should only invest in bitcoin and only short term investment. Day trading is a very good choice at this point, always have a specific plan before the transaction and follow it so you can minimize the risk. The market is constantly fluctuating so when trading altcoin you also always have to observe bitcoin prices.

The growth that bitcoin is now giving can be deceptive. We can still see the price of $ 3500-4000 for 1 bitcoin. But still thanks for the article!

Investment strategy it simplifies on how price of certain cryptocurrency coin being move, we need to know and learn on how price moves from up and down, and once price of cryptocurrency coin down it is the good time to invest large capital and selling it when price going up again to the higher level.

I don't think so, I'm really convinced about the market right now and I believe we will not touch the price below $5k again especially this year. So many investment strategies but if you didn't take it seriously you will still lose the money. Patience is the key especially for those who hold good coins that are still dump until now, wait for it to recover.

It is true that not putting eggs in the same place will risk to destroy everything, a very good plan that you build for investment strategy, but I would be very afraid if buy 10 BTC for example in the future some price just that big and I have to cover the loan or the like until maturity that will make me more depressed, where the thought that in the wake of some time will deviate not as expected, need to calm down and think further with what you think at this time.

Today is a good growth for Bitcoin and now it's close to $ 8K, I still hold some Bitcoin and make it a long-term investment.

I like your strategy. It is a very conservative strategy and one can only make money in this market when the trader is conservative. Greed is an enemy of investing/trading. Another less conservative method is, if a trader has 50k dollars to invest, he can only invest 20k and hold on. If the price goes down, he buys it all the way down. If the Price goes up, he rides the waves. This is another good strategy

definitely but must choose a good coin to invest also before putting trust on it and become confident .to assure you're not wasting time on it and you can gain profits instead lossing capital with it.  Be practical mate and don't easily put a trust on such coin to prevent regrets.

You can see that in recent days bitcoin prices have been steadily recovering, and altcoin prices have been falling sharply. This shows that the capitalization of altcoin is being poured into bitcoin, so I think that at this point we should only invest in bitcoin and should only invest in short term because the market is bearish.

This is so good for newbies to look for new options and technological aspects and their integration related to investment. If someone have got enough money to invest and they are likely to apprehend for technology as well, they must know the financial aspect too. They must understand the factors and their sensitivity and what would be entire profit or loss from that factors.

People sometimes can’t control his emotion and then acting without careful thinking. I kind of agree with you that “ never sell your home at any cost” when we're in investment. There are so many people getting a huge benefits in this market because they know how to control in their investment, how to stop the risk, on a whole they know how to capitalize on investing. But on meanwhile, there are many people in big lost, some loses all their asset such as home and then leading a difficult life without home. If a person let money blind their eyes, he would be hardly success, even he may lose all his asset.

Investment strategy for beginners by learning what is in the trade market, and also if I invest I will buy BTC coins at a small price and sell BTC coins at a high price.

Nice strategy but I'm afraid people have different opinion and asset calculation about this. For me, your strategy is basic knowledge that we should have before enter the market. Good for fundamental but not for technical investor. Like me, my strategy depend data not rumors/ news and in this case number become big part. I suggest you try to include indicator into your post, so for investor like me I can understand your point in different perspective.

Good investment strategy is never put all money in to 1 asset, we should be put it in several asset. For example if we have $10k, 30% put it crypto, 30% in gold and others 40% in stocks asset. And we should be has target profit for each investment, in crypto we can make target like 50% in 1 month, in stocks and gold about 10% to 20% amonth . And if we want to make more profit, we can make compound strategy for 1 years, and also we should be has target profit and how many level risk we can toleran if the prediction wrong.

There are too many of strategies here in the forum to improve your skills in trading and investment setting. My strategy is for practical kind of investors and trader at the same time. I usually trade every time I got a coins and tokens here in the market. So if I got some coins and token I start researching about them and if a potential coins or tokens occur I usually trade it and sell them to buy more potential coin to be my investment.

 Investment strategy is not a game, it's a very serious matter. In order for the strategy to yield positive results, it is necessary to regularly adjust its strategy in connection with changes in the market. The market is always changing, which means that the strategy should be changed otherwise there will be a loss of money.
