Trading in the assets classes we have today require of you to be friends with the trend. It is dangerous to try catching a falling knife.
Lots of markets are starting to unwind (equities, RE, Cryptos). There’s going to be a lot of great opportunities in the next few years
Looking at previous BTC price actions and what happened back then, compared to their prices today and what is happening right now. I tell my folks; the price is absolutely no doubt is lacking behind. And when it takes off the tens of thousands and probably to the hundreds of thousands ($), the average person waking up to this would think it happened overnight.
Though necessary you don’t have to fix the economy, neither do you have to wait for the government to do that. You just have to train yourself to see the opportunities that are passing by you every single second and capitalizing on them. Whether it’s good or bad, there will always be opportunities. Cryptocurrency has presented to us a great deal of opportunity; now let's Seize the Glory!

I agree that is very important to follow the trend, many times I see people fighting the market and saying something like the price should not be that low and they keep trading thinking the direction of the market is going to change and as you may guess they lose their money because if the majority thinks that the price of bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency needs to go down then it will go down.

Trading against the trend of the market is the biggest mistake people tend to make. The same strategy that works in a bull market won't work in a bear market and vice versa, I learned this the hard way myself.

This is the basic truth everyone needs to accept
It helps to save funds and prevent losses hence the need to be smart

But crypto currency is a funny game, if there are no losses there cannot be profits
So let’s enjoy involvement and be smart about it

We lost a lot on altcoins this year

and also some opportunities are passing by, but we are always to choose whether to grab that or not as we know there might be a bigger opportunity ahead. That we might lose if we grab the first one. Be knowledgeable in making decision in order for us to succeed.

Many people think that cryptocurrency can provide benefits overnight and then fear that 2019 will become a prolonged multi-year bear market. Look at the many $ 800 targets at $ BTC from people who have never had the opportunity to buy at that level. I think an 80% discount is not good enough to start scaling.

Just HALK

I wish I could give you a merit for this. Some so called crypto experts have no idea that the strategies employed in both bull and bear markets have to be distinct. They blow away their funds and worse still mislead newbies into their wrong calls.

I don't see any reason for invest into altcoins ...

And when will growth begin?

I agree with your view, after the gloomy market over the new opportunities will come, those who leverage it will be successful. Just like a cold winter will be a beautiful spring

That's correct, trading against the market has been a tradition now they expect something great like trying to plan for short term investment like they buy in mid of the year and sell in the end of the year for a reasonable profit, I guess this year it won't happen as market is struggling.

Yes it's absolutely correct, we need to follow the trend and try to be friend with the trend and we need to embrace and seize every opportunity within the trend, and each of the situation present different way to earn, if we can learn each trend and make it into our experience then we surely can get big profit and experience for the future

At this time I think the market is still in a correction phase. Many page analysis rates from 3k to 4k2 $ are the final correction level of the BTC. Maybe it will take some time before the entrance to the new uptrend.

Indeed, we must follow the current crypto motion and continue to monitor every news and surprises that are present, whether it's about the market or about other developments related to crypto so that we are also ready to face all the possibilities that occur.

I am not surprised by any of this in the market, any one who knows cryptos knew that this was coming and there was no way that we were going to stop the coin from falling. The best thing is to always do research and that way you can be prepared for anything that is going to happen since you already have some kind of knowledge about it

Waiting for Bitcoin 1k

Why not? I mean if a altcoin is supported for more then 3-4 years... then what the difference to bitcoin in terms of investment?

 It's just like other predictions of the whales movements.   :)

It is mostly inexperienced traders and investors who panic at every drop in price. Volatility is a common n factor in cryptocurrency, and while we are optimistic about a pump in price we should always consider that it could go the other way.
And try to predict the market movements, that way you would not be caught in the middle.

Crypto market is volatile, which requires us to be more observant in seeing opportunities. we are not people who regulate crypto or the government will provide regulation. so don't wait too long, this is a good time for investment.

Absolutely correct. this is what smart trader should be watching with so they can always make money wherever the market is going. And this can be the reason why as of now I have not really benefited a lot with cryptocurrency as I keep on holding on to assets which as of now have no more real value I should have sold them when they were at their peak. This year the market took a big beating and 2019 may not be better. I am now thinking of focusing a big part of my attention somewhere else as this cryptocurrency market can really be harsh for a newbie like me.

nice words,
people will see an opportunities in this crash,,
buy in the dip is the best way on investments,,
but there is no guarantee if the market will bounce at this moment my friend
the best things we should do at this moment is only increase our patience  ;)

We really shouldn't panic when prices fall, because this is the law of the market, it always happens cyclically, we should know more about this, if the trading behavior is always subject to their own emotions (fear or madness) Dominance, then this type of transaction is irrational, and such investment will be blind.

Cyrpto trading is not learned overnight. It need a lot of time, efforts, money and research. Read a lot of legit news, see trends, look at its behaviour, read comments and of course experience is the best teacher.

Just Hodl, friends

As always, people need to check and observe the market trend from time to time just to know where the market is heading. I think now matter what people hoped for the crypto market, we can't change it's coarse or direction. I believe that  it is beyond everyone's control as the market is on the process of major adjustments which most probably will take a while to restore back to normal and there is no need to be surprised if the market will continue to drop. However, after this dips, I think bull market will soon to thrive thus increasing back it's market value.

We need a new Ethereum

And when will growth begin?

       Yes, it is important to follow the trend and the historical graph of cryptocurrency. Many people say the crypto market is in agony, just for those new to the market to scare themselves, to withdraw their investment on loss. So the price of coins will drop further and those who misinform will buy coins at even lower prices. In short, there are many who make money on the weakness of others. We have to try to anticipate market movements so that we are not caught in the middle.

It is truly important for us to acquaint ourselves with the crypto environment, get to know to do’s and the dont’s. Most people get into crypto currency thinking its like any other thing in the market and they start trading anyhow without due knowledge of the market trends. This usually result in losses which creat panic and fear to investors.

Most people encourage crypto members to hold the coins they have in their possession and not lose hope.  In the next year's to come,  the coins we have now will shoot up to become like Bitcoin or Ethereum.  Let's hope for the best.

I agree, most of the successful traders are those who follow the trend and were following also the upward trend which is less risky though less reward also. The bloodbath brings not only loses but also lessons which is very important for us to thrive in bearish market.

That is just it OP,  many are yet to see this opportunities and i just think within if its the fear they have had since the beginning of the bear market that is causing it. Whenever the market is down, just like the case of what we have now, it's always an opportunity for all, but not many utilize it. Experience sometimes is a necessity, which help to make the right decision based on what has been observed in the past.

Market trend is important to be observed and not to be left behind till now some are sitting on the fence to see what will happen to this bear market while some are afraid to take this opportunity when bear stop and bull start they will be the people altering the statement that "had i known" i would have bought this so so coin or token.

Whales and big pocket people in the community always make sure that the price will go down.
They will sell high and buy lower. this is a strategy to make them get more tokens in the market.
But once this happen we are expecting a huge pump in price.

It is ok to observe the trend but it is much better to be ahead of the trend. It is not always the most beneficial to go with the flow. Sometimes we have to go against it even if it is more risky.

I didn't get it, I thought they also want to see price higher than this time. If as you think, then I don't think we will be able to see the price of bitcoin rising higher, because once the price rises, there will be many people selling it.

But we should also be able to sort out and choose trends, because not a few trends are of the opposite nature, even tend to deceive our thinking especially for those who have just involved themselves in crypto trading. Don't be surprised, not panic, and patient, these three things are what we need to maintain, because by holding on to all three surely we can control the emotions of the risks that will come to us.

There are so many benefits that we can capture from him, besides profit, our knowledge will certainly develop widely.

We are only human and whenever we could see that our portfolio goes down to almost zero we could be stressed out and panic. This is why they always said that being here in crypto is very risky and you should have a nerve of steel to withstand the crypto volatility.

I agree, the only thing we rely on starting today from cryptocurrency is opportunity, we must take advantage of these opportunities to achieve what we want from cryptocurrency. in my opinion this is good motivation

  Yes, learning the process is very important. the very unpredictability of the Crypto Market needs a lot analysis, the trends on the market, volume of market capital on ups and down, the consumers behavior towards such coin, the market fundamentals, a lot of indicators need to be studied and make a sound decision for such possible investment. Market Volatility is so high, negative Speculation posted all over the social media, print, and even on broadcast. all of this once considered help out for us either relax or be more patient as the crypto market having a lot to confront with. i am still positive that once everything has settled down, it will be a thing to be as Hot Topic on all the platform of discusdion. Stay positive this will just passing thru..Market Volatility comes with the market.

continue to observe the changes and continue to follow existing trends will be able to give his own advantage. a market that could not be predicted at least could be anticipated by always keeping track of to learn the fundamentals are there in order to still get lucky. trade without having any insight just only get empty results.

I didn't think it would get down too much like this now. I can't believe that Ethereum is under $100 now, it was $1400 at its peak early of this year, now it decreased 15 times in price, it's disaster for all Ethereum holders.

There are indeed many opportunities created on crypto but not many have noticed. they prefer to wait and hold and this makes them not following the trend that there is so much that is left behind with a good opportunity to get the results most likely does not have to be taking every opportunity to get lucky because conditions that are currently difficult to find results if you don't follow the trend.

Nice very encouraging words. Train yourself also of getting used to this market. If you are not ready for the consequences then you shouldn't be here. A lot of opportunities are opening and this has been recognized by most if the market isn't so good.
While the newbies, they all think that its all going to an end which they lack of understanding and experiencing on how the market should go through it.

Its hard to read market trend unless we have good trading skill and having knowledge about technical analysis. Studying market movement is hard but its profitable if we able to read market trend and having good technical analysis. Its true that we should studying market trend to make profits in uncertain market condition

This is a bad omen mate. That's a tragic low when go down to that price. Just hoping it wouldn't reached on that level cause many will fall out on this field once it happened.

In trading in financial markets, including cryptocurrency, you should always follow the trend. Those who try to swim against the current are likely to fail. Many say that the time has come to buy bitcoins and altcoins because they are at the bottom, but I think it is too early to do that. The bottom has not yet passed and Bitcoin will fall even lower. I think the decline will continue until about February and then recovery will begin. To what values does bitcoin fall I even dread to think.

Many investors are investing in this time in crypto while the same time many people who are not aware of the coming future of crypto are selling their coins. So the price is in low while in actual the coming month will bring bigger investors and will rise the value so investing now is a good opportunity.

Yes, only the people who are having vast experience about how crypto currencies have traded in the past, are deciding to hold their coins and also opting for buying more whenever they are seeing cheaper price levels.

We need to keep buying so that we can ensure about having good average buying levels which is more important for calculating good profits as no one will not be able to buy at the exact lower price levels. Investing right now will be the best option in my opinion too.

Buying those coins right now is probably a nice time and hold it for the next years. Because as I can see it, more opportunities are happening in the next following years. And I believe that the dump price will be no more in the future.

follow the flow of trends will be brought to the profit. But while trying to fight off this flow or stop to follow existing trends than do not hope that it will bring results. Crypto is not a thing that can bring results when only silence alone and does not want to develop and follow existing trends.

I do not see any motivation for the Altcoin to recover except to look at Bitcoin's news. So this trend can last a long time when BTC can really recover.

absolutely right, while trying to stop or resist the flow of trends that existed then surely will be kicked out and not even be able to follow the development. get lucky is obviously difficult when trying to fight the trend. Thus the trend is going to be decisive and try to follow it will take to secure.

I think everyone is just Capitulating.
Just wait till the Despair phase comes in... It will seem like crypto is not gonna survive anymore.
But eventually crypto will still survive.

     It is very important to follow the trend of the market, especially during this time of the bear. We have to pay attention to the market trends and not to rebate them. Trending against the trend is the biggest mistake people make in this market. Trading against the market is good when we are in the bull era. During this time of the bear, it is difficult to have pleasant surprises.

No one can accurately predict what the market will do although analysis can help but if you're new to this its best to first learn as much as you can about past trends and also where the market is presently going and how the technologies are evolving before starting to put your money anywhere so you don't have unrealistic expectations

Indeed, the cryptocurrency is unpredictable, even everyone who were said to has a huge experience in cryptocurrency doesn't able to perfectly predict the market condition.
So, it will just like the title that you mentioned if we need to keep on observing and follow the trend, that would be the safest strategy in cryptocurrecy market.

of course Whales and other communities want the price to continue to rise, but of course there is a moment in itself, so at this moment most likely is a moment for them to buy and save BTC. But if you only expect the price to rise without any reason behind it, it will also be difficult
