Bitcoin Forum

Hi Everyone, I have a dilemma since I am holding an wholesome portion of bitcoin. With all the speculation going on in the market I don't know whether to sell or hold on my bitcoin. I've been wanting for more than a week to see if bitcoin's price improves, but it is only falling more and more.

I've gone through dozens of analysts' blogs, websites, market cap sites, price prediction sites, and all the important bitcoin market sites to find the right answer. But I am still unsure.

So, can anyone please tell me if I should dump my bitcoins with some losses (selling at lesser price than the buying price), or should I hold on to it?

There is also another reason. A promising stock just opened up. So should I sell my bitcoins and but the new stock that I'm interested in?

If:

• you're not willing to hold for the long term
• you think bitcoin isn't going to be more expensive in the future
• you're going to need to sell soon for whatever reason(business/bills/hospital expense/etc)
• you think there's a better investment out there

..then sell your bitcoin.

If:

• you think bitcoin will be worth a lot more in the future
• you're willing to hold onto your bitcoin for YEARS
• you don't need the money any time soon
• you think bitcoin is a good investment

..then don't sell your bitcoin.

It's actually quite simple. Are you satisfied with your profits, or are you still not benefiting from the bitcoins you have.
Don't trust other people when that person suggests selling your bitcoins for a small loss, that's really stupid advice.
You can sell it when you get a profit.
Whatever it is you have to make a target, if it still hasn't reached the target you have to hold it, but when you feel it is enough to sell it.
Don't sell at a loss.

don't panic and don't worry bitcoin is only undergoing a brief correction. My advice is hold bitcoins and don't sell at low prices, because if you sell at low prices you will only get losses and disappointments

Bitcoin price is any time to up and down. So wait for the bitcoin price then sell the bitcoin. If the price will be low that time buys and hold the bitcoin. Then wait for the price increase that time you sell or exchange any coins. So check the market price evevrydays. Then you get some ideas. Don't sell the bitoin wait and hold the long time.

You should at least wait for the coming week to see how the market reacts.

The price has plummeted this week because of this false news about the double-spend, thanks to Bitmex.
In the next few days, the market will most likely absorb this panic since people will realize that it was nothing more than FUD.
I can already see the market is recovering today

I can't say that the price will go back up to $40k but in any case, it will certainly increase from what it is today.

It all depends on your purchase price. But honestly, if you bought at $40k, knowing that the Bitcoin price is cyclical, either you sell now or you are prepared to wait about 4 years. Unless the market is flooded with great news this year with more institutions and companies jumping on the BTC market.


he says he is currently in a loss position, I doubt he's satisfied unless people are happy when they lose money

Just hold your Bitcoin, the price is low at the moment and I would advise against selling, especially now, since you'll be able to sell at a higher price soon enough. I wouldn't go around reading predictions if I were you, anyone can post anything. Bitcoin has shown that it has an upward pattern and always recovered from the depths.

If you really want to sell though (Supposing there's an emergency/you need cash), I'd advise you to wait a couple of days, see if the price recovers and then do what you think is best for yourself.

Bitcoin is always long term relationship investment so you can wait and see the next week results. But you have USDT in your wallet, you can plan to invest on Ethereum, Because sudden pump and dump is make more noise in trading, So better we must hold two or three altcoins in bag. Trading is a wonderful journey for crypto platform so patience is the main theme of trading and my suggestion is decide your own way.

It will depends on what price you bought it, if the profit is already enough for you or you needed some funds to use it, I still think BTC is still able to set more new ATH records soon since many companies share just started to consider it as investment since there are already known companies now who acknowledge its use and ability to gain, there will be sure some dump but it will just depend on how much or how long you're willing to sell.

The fact is that even today, well-known large companies continue to buy Bitcoin even at current prices, and this indicates real prospects for the growth of the BTC rate at least this year. I believe that Bitcoin should be accumulated, not sold.

There are a lot of predictions and speculation about the price, but no one can predict 100% correctly.
I've read many predictions as well and according to this one (https://www.tradingview.com/chart/BTCUSD/D7k1dG84-Can-you-believe-this-chart-is-FREE-OF-CHARGE/), based on the analysis, double bottom or adam and eve indicates the price may increase by the end of the month, just give it a few days more if you in hurry to sell bitcoin. However, bitcoin should reach higher and your investment will worth double rather than invest in a stock if you are willing to wait at least 6 months.

With BTC the long er you hold while there is impending bullrun the more valuable it may be. But if you really need the money badly, you can always sell there always gonna be someone out there wanting to buy BTC. It's funny because the people I personally knew who learned BTC and crypto didn't go back to stock market. 

What's the purpose of you dumping it? do you have a reason why you need to dump it? are you short in cash and that's why you're leaning to dump it?
If there's no reason why you need to dump it, just hold it and wait a little more. You'll regret selling it if you'll see the price goes up but if you have decided to sell it for your needs, no regrets for that.

It depends on your requirement, if you are looking for quick cash in terms of emergency then cashout else don't cashout now as there are investments poring into bitcoin which will surely lead to further bullrun or atleast reach the last ATH. Bitcoin market will keep fluctuating and you have to decide if you want to settle for the profit which you have earned then cashout else wait for bitcoin's price to buckle up which has higher possibilities. Don't panic sell.

Yes, it depends on his priority right now. Does the OP need the money or not? Is the price right now higher than his buying price? If yes, and he wants to sell it, then, that's fine. You are already in profit even if it is not the profit that you want. It is only him that can truly answer or decide on this matter. What are his goals for holding his bitcoins? Even if he went thru all these price predictions/speculations, no one can really tell exactly what's gonna happen with bitcoin few days from now or months from now.

This is the common problem where we find ourselves on a difficult situation whether to hold bitcoin or to sell it right away, we have so many “if” in our mind and that prevents us from making the right decision.

I personally experience many times like this before so I suggest to have your target price and commit on that, don’t be greedy anymore and take profit or do your cutloss. If you want to hold it for more months then so be it, just be confident and trust the process, if you want to sell now that’s fine because you already make profit.

From a trading perspective, Bitcoin is currently bearish even though it has gone up a bit from the last dip. So far, the bulls haven't been able to get it to retest the previous highs and keep failing on every items. It's just a matter of time before a breakout  - either upwards or downwards happens.




Most of the so-called analysts on these blogs, Twitter on even YouTube base their analysis on pure speculation and nothing more than that. They just tell people what they're interested to hear.

Even if you go through a million blogs who analyze the price of bitcoin you will not find a concrete answer for your dilemma, it would be great if you could convey your entry point as it is more than important while giving you any advice as there is no point in selling your coins at a loss as the price will recover in due time, no can claim about the certain path but i am still hoping we would see another rally in the coming months before a major correction.

No one can assure you with the market changes of bitcoin. By the next hour the market can start falling downward, or it can have a steep forward move. Based on different changes happening relative to the market there'll be variation in the growth.

It is always good to make self decision when it comes to selling/holding of bitcoin. If you sell today getting suggestion from someone, and if growth happens once after the sell it'll cause some form of anger against the person suggested for a sell. Here the mistake isn't with the person who suggest it, but mind won't accept it.

Firstly you don't need this sites to determine when you're to sell or buy an assets you picked interest in investing in. What you need is discipline, you have to program your mind to stop listening to what the media have to say, they'll always follow the trend inorder to stay relevant. If the Market is showing bearish signs then they're bearish and start publicising article that spread fud.

Selling of your bitcoin should be your own decisions and not because anyone says you should sell. Also for starters if you're having second thoughts when you intend selling then don't sell. Are you in need of the cash of urgent, if no  then keep to your coins as they should be considered investment vehicle.

The market currently might be showing some bearish trend but that doesn't change the fact that this year is going to be bullish for bitcoin and you'll regret getting rid of your bitcoin if that was to be your final decision.

Don’t panic about bitcoin’s decline now. Moreover, you say, if you sell it, you get a loss. That means you buy bitcoin at a high price. It’s already your risk if bitcoin declines because you buy at a high price. You don’t have to panic about selling. Wait until bitcoin goes up again. It takes time for that. So you have to control your emotions right now. This is important in investing and trading in crypto.

It is significant to know your main purpose of holding.

Do you perhaps wanted to achieve enough profits and buy some things from that profit? Then there is an answer to that, hold longer. I think you are still new to this kins of investments. That's why you are kibda worried and panicking when bitcoin drops. You are not alone experiencing to be deficit when btc is falling. But there is akways an option to "hold".

You do not have to worry if you are a kong term holder, but if you can't patiently wait for your own bitcoin to atleaat pump and has a profit atleast, then it is you at the end who'll gonna decide.

You know what dude, if you are one of the Bitcoin believers or fanatic that it will reach 50k$ and up each,
I am pretty sure you won't sell it. but if you are encountering any a little bit worrying even you got at least earned on it,
Well, I think it is better to follow your will unlike you regret in the end. Now, the question is, are you happy in the profit
you get into bitcoin?

Use your Instinct and do not rely on people opinion because that is your Money and not theirs .
Know what ? you are a dead Investor in this point  because the truth is ? you wanted to find answer that will fit your wanting and not a professional advise.
 Dump your coins and Get out of here , You have too much question but surely you are only looking for Merit and not a true investor.

It will be different if he has urgent needs which need money because we need to fills that urgent thing with the money. There is no other way that we can do except selling some satoshi's that we have. Even if we are bitcoin believers, we need to know when we need to sell the bitcoin instead of holding it forever because I think we need to make money from bitcoin. What makes us feel happy is that the bitcoin price can jump to a high price in a short time.

But unfortunately, that will not happen in the near because bitcoin price needs to up and down, and even if the price can increase higher, the price will go down to adjust and gets more support so that the price can rise higher.

I sell my Bitcoin for a reason because I need money for now...
I hold Bitcoin because I don't need it this time and I believe that Bitcoin will be more valuable in the future, so I wait that moment to come...

What is your purpose?
If you think that you are in profit this time and was enough for you, then make a decision to sell. But if you are still hoping for more, then make it hold and wait for the next Bullrun.

You will need to have a goal. Think that the price of Bitcoin is not stable but keeps swinging.

See your decisions should not be influenced by others opinion as its wholly your choice whether you want to hold your Bitcoins or you want to sell them at the current prices.If you have got your satisfactory profits and you are willing to leave the market cashing out your return you are free to do so.But if you have not get your retuns you should hodl for long term as btc is undergoing a small correction due to which the prices are down (if you are not new you know the volatility factor and these are integral part of btc system) and in the long run price will surge to ATH again so you can have patience until that.

Some of the tips which might be useful for you:

- Be patient in crypto market if you want to get high profits without panicking
-Keep hold of your nerves without getting sentimental as you can loose all your funds in the market
-Be self dependent and take your own decisions considering market movements.

Actually, you can't predict the market price, and guessing where is the buying and selling point, it's hard to determine even you have done study the market, even experts will also experience failure in trading, in short, no one really knows.

My advice is, don't too much greedy if you are investing in bitcoin. Dont sell if your profit was not there because bitcoin remains the amount that you purchased and even how many years you will hold.

Should you sell? It's up to you. But remember always once your profit was there, its a time to harvest your ROI.

We all know that market is an uncertain place where anything can happen .You were saying thet it could be recover but it could be go more down as well .So that i wanna suggest if has got the enough profit he can sell if there is an emergency if not you always can hold your valuable asset and btc is always a valuable coin which can give you a good return.

Its on its high price ever.
So it is the time to sell btc. Sell when the market is on It's highest position. Buy when the market crashes. So it is the right time to sell and earn some cash.

If I were you, I would never sell my bitcoin unless I need money very urgently. I made that mistake once, and believe me, I'm so regretful, now I'm trying to collect it again and I will hodl it in my hand as much as I can.

Everyone has their own different targets. An investor always wants to know how to make maximum profit. It is normal for everyone to learn from their past mistakes, now it is time to make sure that they do not make the same mistakes again. Like you, I made a mistake and lost my bitcoins, now I understand what I did wrong then. I started collecting bitcoin again from 2019 and now I am satisfied with the result.

In my opinion, a certain target should be set in advance to sell Bitcoin. By doing this you will be able to take your profit and buy again if the market trend changes.

You shouldn't invest bitcoin when you have a feeling of fear or doubt. Bitcoin is volatile all the time but my advice is to hold or switch to ETH.

From what i read between the lines it looks like he bought BTC really low and having it since then. I personally like to have diverse portfolio. So maybe some part of btc to invest in some other coins or stocks is not bad idea.

The reason why the price of market keep falling is because we are currently in the market correction season and ought to have sell some part of your holding for Stablecoin during the $40K price range which you may now use now to buyback to maximize your holding.
Having said that, you can sell now and you may not cause the choice if yours but dont sell at lost price.


Most analyst site etc spread fud information and it will be good if you improve your knowledge about crypto investment so you wont be mislead.

As I said earlier, it not good to sell at lost price cause the market is still doing good and if the selling price is nor lesser than your buying price, you can sell 45% or less.

No stock can give you the better profit Bitcoin will give you.

Exactly, everyone can make a decision and since we are old enough and know already in crypto maybe we can think about what is right and what is wrong. OP might be in trouble deciding which one to take but for sure as the market price rises, they sell some of his holdings which is the best idea. And a decision to move some of his profit to altcoins will be his other journey.

Your true intentions depend on the only money you have, your bitcoin.

You are not on the right side of money to invest and you are not even close to being a hodl, you actually need your bitcoin in Fiat money.

One not should have "doubts" about what to do when he has money to "invest" and even more so when he has been advised and is well informed, the reason is simple, those bitcoin have never been an investment, they are your savings, they are your job. lifetime.

Anyway, you are looking for so many alternatives to get out of bitcoin in so many ways that you no longer trust it, but whatever, please do not sell all your bitcoins unless that is to change your present in a radical way to ensure your future.

That could happen or that couldn't happen, the prices are still as volatile as it was back then and considering that OP has a considerable amount of bitcoin, I think that OP should consider selling. This will be a regrettable decision but if I were in that position, I would go for a safe play. But OP has to consider whether OP needs the bitcoin to be sold to supply OP's daily expenses, is bitcoin OP's only way to make this money? Does OP have another way to make money? Is OP's bitcoin really needed to be sold? If the OP were to ask these things and arrive at an answer that favors selling bitcoin, I think that OP should do what needs to be done and if not then might as well hodl, bitcoin has come a long way and has proven that bitcoin can reach limits and if you were to miss another ATH then you might not be able to forget about it for awhile.

Bitcoin is definitely better than any other stock. I’d better hold it even for a long time, than sell it at a loss and buy some shitcoins. All niewbie traders want to become millionaires immediately, however in crypto it’s really necessary not to panic but to hold.

If you hold a large portion of bitcoin, maybe you can devided it as an option if you have faith in bitcoin and don't want to lose the opportunity in the stocks you want. This morning I saw the news released from Bloomberg that bitcoin might hit $50k in the future, who knows of course that's just a speculation

My advice is. If price will be increase that time hold the bitcoins. Don't sell it. Just hold the bitcoins long time. Bitcoin price is going down that time buy and hold it. Check the market price every day. Then get some ideas for future investment. Time is important of the bitcoins investment. So time to buy and sell it bitcoin.

This is what it is, don't let other people affect your decisions in an investment.

You're a grown man and you should know how to help yourself, you can have different opinions but think about yourself.

If you know that it is not worth it to sell then go, if it is profitable for you then go.

But always remember that you are accountable about the actions that you are going to do.

Always have a certain target where you are comfortable, confident, and contented when you make profits, focus on your goal.

I agree to that, if you don't want to lose that opportunities then holding is the best option.

While if you also trying to trade up and working to grow your assets, you can follow your patterns in order to succeed with your goals.
Many people are still optimistic believing that Bitcoin will bring a good bounce and reach another high.

Evaluate your purpose again, if I'm not mistaken, you buy bitcoin so you can sell it high for profit, it should not changed. If the current price does not give you a profit, why sell? bitcoin price will not be stuck, it maybe dump a bit or big time, but it's likely to rise again based on its development and you can also see on its price history.

Always remember that the longer bitcoin exist, the higher its value will become, and that is because of the continues adoption.

Never trust different people to make decisions that you have to make on your own.

Dumping your Btc at this current rate is kinda absurd.
Honestly, no matter how hard you find answers over the internet, you'll never ever get a satisfactorily good answer to your queries because you're becoming one of the weak hands in crypto space. You're lossing faith with Btc because the price seems stabilizing this week and may fall anytime. Well, Btc didn't reach $40,000 over night anyway.

I'm pretty sure Bitcoin is more promising than that in the long run. I might sound bias, but that's the reality.
But the decision is always yours, just always remember, Invest only what you can afford to lose.

It's up to you whatever you see fit as long as you wouldn't regret on your decision, honestly you should not be seeking advice to the forum many people might give you bad advice you should really think first before following other's advice.

Well, that depends on you though like if you believe that it is worth waiting and take the risk then go hold it. If you think you don't need that money for something else then go for it otherwise sell. Personally, I don't think is done, it may be quite stable right now, hovering around $31k-$32k but I don't think whales are ready to make a profit yet and I think they are going to push it more that is why in my case I will keep holding it. Dumping it right now might be a bad idea but if Bitcoin totally goes down and you forced to sell on that price it is even worse so yeah it is a dilemma. You can wait till goes up but it might take a lot of time though. Anyway, it's still your call.

It will all depend on you, We can't be sure if bitcoin will reach your buying price this week, month, or year. Who knows right? There are so many speculations on the internet about bitcoin and the only thing I can suggest to you is to try to analyze how the market reacts today. If you know that the money that you will get from selling bitcoin will help you or you know that you can make it grow in a different way, Maybe you can take the loss instead. This is the time that you will ask yourself if you can hold off your bitcoin for a long period of time. There are many people who sell on a loss price in 2017-2018 that has regret selling them seeing the price today. So just trust yourself on this important decision.

If you sell at an unprofitable situation or sell below your first purchase price, I think you are wrong, and everyone will buy when the price is low and selling when the price is high and profitable is the right choice, and forget about your target to rely on profits in a week.
Better to hold your bitcoin if you don't need it and hold it for a long time and wait for the price to rise high above the price you originally bought it for.
rest assured that bitcoin will bring you huge returns if you are patient and consistent despite the long wait.

You're just behaving like that person who bought 2 pizzas for 10k btc and he has nothing left but regrets only. Money doesn't come overnight, if you are here for that, go buy Defi or some shitcoin because btc has gone mainstream and it will take time for it to grow. It is not some penny stock that's worth $0.01 yesterday and $10 today (though btc used to be like that in its early days). If you cannot hold, then sorry, but Bitcoin will never suit your appetite.

That is true. Do not waste what you have started and effort to put into because of the doubts and other people’s opinion. Focus on your target and strengthen your faith so you won’t be easily shaken with this downward movement of the market happening right now. Also, as the other have said, you could try dividing your coins to give a try to that other prospect of yours. But then again, do not sell if there is no profit.

Exactly and not just because the idea would be bad but some idea aren't meant for everyone. Like they can be saying the right thing but for that particular user it meant not be the best decision for him at that very moment. A perfect example is in a scenario when you advice someone to hold but that users isn't high on cash and meant get tempted to sell when he needs cash but by then the price would be trading below his target sell price.

Everything boils down to what the users needs cash for at th very moment he weeks for the advice, if you are selling because you need asome cash then your decision can be understandable but if you're selling because you want to outsmart the market and buy low, it's better you just hold as the bull market is very unpredictable. You meant think a correction is about to happen then suddenly the price spike

Here is my genuine answer to your question. You should continue to hold your bitcoin even if the bitcoin price is starting to drop base on your observation. If you are asking why, then the best answer to it is because bitcoin price is not yet at it's peak meaning there is still a room for the bitcoin price to increase.

Decrease is only natural as it is how the market works but if you think that buying the promising stocks will surely to give you a good amount of profit rather than holding your bitcoins then you should sell your bitcoin right away and proceed in buying the stocks that you consider as promising but make sure that you will not regret your decision in the end so think twice before making a decision.

When you have searched many sources to make a decision but you are still not sure, it seems like you are still confident to hold on to it and I think just continue it. Because you are hesitant to sell and also hesitant to hold, if I were you then I would hold on to it for the long term or sell it immediately and forget about losses. Control is only in you because it is an investment that you do yourself with your own calculations, so selling at a loss or holding on to it should all be carefully calculated and you must be prepared for bad decisions that may be made. Because if we talk about how potential bitcoin price is in the future, then I believe the answer is that it will go higher but to achieve that of course it will not be easy.

Depending on the original purpose of buying Bitcoin for short-term or long-term, if indeed from the beginning we bought Bitcoin for long-term
investment, of course choosing HODL until the next few years according to the desired target is achieved. However, if you buy Bitcoin just to get
a profit, I recommend selling your Bitcoin immediately if it has managed to go up. Even though the profit you get is small, it doesn't matter,
because you will buy Bitcoin again and sell it again when the price goes up again. You can do that every day, because Bitcoin price is volatile.

That also a thing to consider but for me, I'm doing both, and I look at the market movement.
Selling- it matters when we certainly in need of money( but try to separate money for trading and for personal use)
Holding- it matters on the market situation (mostly it happens when the market is in the bearish season)

Our goal is to earn more, become profitable. Selling at a good price, holding waiting for a better price.

That's a perfect mindset upon having Bitcoin, we are here to gain more upon investing in Bitcoin not just losing profit.  Just wait a perfect time and sell at a good price.  This is the reason why we always say, invest of what you can afford because in investing in crypto there's no time frame when you will get profit on it.  You will not earn in just a couple of days hoping that your profit was there, long term investment is far better than short term investment.

So the OP question is, should I sell my bitcoin?
One straight question, is your profit was there? If so, then that is the right time to sell but if you can wait for more for I said the perfect time much better.

If you see yourself that you cannot afford to see the declination on the value of Bitcoin once you hold it, better sell it for your own good but if you see that you can endure taking temporary loss due to price declination, then better hold for it. It will be an assessment on yourself on how far can you go so better mind your own and do not be dependent on other people's opinion and speculations for we have different stands regarding the matter. Better just see to it that you will be the one benefitting on the decision you will make because it is your own Bitcoin and not ours.

bitcoin very suitable for long term investment, dont be affraid if we meet high volatility in market. whales always want to take bitcoin cheaply bu spreading fud. so if we want maximal gain , maybe hold it till end of year will make our investment value increase alot.but if we have different strategy but used it for daily trading , it could increase bitcoin amount.

Though current BTC Price action is very Boring and it is stuck between 31,500 to 33,500 and it is likely to continue lower unless it clears 35,000 which has become an uphill task but for long term Investors, BTC the is best asset to hold when we look at it Historical performance from 2011 to 2021. Its performance has been extremely impressive without any doubt.

In my opinion, the market this week is continuously moving and changing shades.  Bull has been kept and gone and worthwhile bitcoin is on the defensive threshold of $ 30k.  If the wavelength resets as before, bitcoin will rise to 40k by accomplishing anything, this code is detected.  I suppose, be more patient and don't sell bitcoins under these conditions.  Need to wait more before the end of January.

I would say it depends on your personal life and not a trading question for people like me. If you are a day trader that buys and sells you wouldn't ask if you should sell it or hold it, that means you are an investor who bought it and holds it right now and depending on what you want to do you will maybe get out, if you are holding your coins more than few days that kind of becomes investing a bit and not trading, trading is buying and selling as quickly as possible.

In the case of an investor selling or holding, that depends on your life, do you need the money now? You could always need money because of something in your life, and if you need it that means you could sell it, nothing wrong with that, however if you do not need the money right now, just let it ride, maybe it will be 10k again maybe it will be 50k but eventually in a few years it will definitely be higher than this no doubt about it.

Well, this time the price of bitcoin is totally high compare to last year, if you think that you have profit when you trade it? Why not! This time is a good opportunity to sell our bitcoin. But I can suggest to hold other bitcoin (for the chances to increase the price of bitcoin and sell when bitcoin value is great) and sell the other (for the assurance of sure money).

Of you think that the new stock is great than bitcoin why not? But for me, bitcoin is great at now.

Just always monitor the graph of trading and follow your instinct to avoid blaming yourself in the end.

If it breaks its resistance of $30000 than it may move to $27000 but after it can started recovering.

It will go down more if whales won't started buying BTC now. Coin base premium is in negative right now which means no coinbase whales buying it.

People often ask this kind of question about when is the right time to buy and sell bitcoin. As everybody says, there is no actual or specific time or date to buy and sell bitcoin. But I prefer to buy bitcoin when its price has decreased just like today because bitcoin is down that it is now $30,000. Also, I only sell my bitcoins when I need money to maintain my long term investment.

all decisions are up to you...
profit or loss is the risk that must be borne by every investor. but if I were you, I would continue to HODL my Bitcoin until I actually sold it at a good price. *whether the shares you mean are Tesla stocks

This is the best comment here, all decisions are up to us! We read this and that, positive and negative things... but actually nobody can't predict the future, some will be right and some will be wrong! Where are we in all that?! We need to create our own plan and way of thinking, and to believe that we can make good decisions!
I can only say that I sold a nice part of my holdings, and I am having fun with short run trading, but I am waiting for some nice drop to buy with everything I have! It's what I expect and what I believe that will happen... I see many experienced people think the same, but will it happen like we desire or not, we will see! Good luck all with your decisions, after all some will be right and some will not, but the game will not end as long as we have something in our wallets!

It seems that there's silence among whales now, and only waiting for another big spikes. Only traders and holders remained active after the massive pump in marketplace early this year. Many speculations would tend to come out if we can't see any good movement in the next coming weeks, so we need to be careful in every decisions we're going to make. For now wait for every certain updates, and if in case gradual downtrend may occur you'll able to take your profit quickly to avoid losing your profit.

In my opinion, the market is not in a bad mood as bitcoin is still good at $ 30,000.  Compared to the previous sessions, with a negative fluctuation range, although there are no noticeable fluctuations, the fast recovery today can create a good psychological momentum for the next correction phase.  Keeping it if bitcoin is on a defensive threshold is in favor of $ 30,000.  Bitcoin capitalization remains in equilibrium trend, which is well maintained.  It would be perfect when bitcoin surpasses 40k in the next four days.

It depends on you mate. Whatever advice do we have, the final decision will always be onto you. Once you have made your final decision, you will fully understand the risk that you are taking even if the price goes down.

That is what I am waiting for, maybe if bitcoin prices stabilize at around 35k for a week, I think selling it would be a good idea but many have regrets selling their coin because the moment that they sell it then the next day the prices suddenly skyrocketed. With the current prices, surpassing 40k is a pipe dream for the market, there seems to be a resistance that is preventing it and this one is stronger from back in the 20k price point.

Firstly, I will like to know if you know about the history of Bitcoin? How it got to where it was today with a worth of over $30k our present money. Convert that to any currency in the world, it is still money. Let me run a quick recap for you. This entity called Bitcoin, the father of all cryptocurrencies in the world today started with a price less than $1 even less than 20cents. Within the space of 11 years, that supposed 20cents has worth $30,000 today. If you can the calculation, that's more than 100,000% increment. The question is how long do you want to keep your Investment. Do you have pressing matters than needs financial attention urgently? If you don't leave your Investment for a long time so you can recover some of your loses and have more

Sorry to hear that you are in reds right now.
But many of the great crypto traders have predicted that BTC will touch 50k USD soon. So if you can save upto that time , then it will be better.
But if you want to sell them instantly as you might need to urgent cash, then do it.
Or else if you want to invest at other coins and seeing better opportunity then go for selling.
Else if you listen to me then just hold the coin for another one month.
I am sure you will get at least little profit.

This is just simple if you think you are satisfy with your current profit and you are not sure about bitcoin movement you can definitely sell it or if you think Bitcoin might dump u can sell it, currently have been being different predictions about bitcoin to touch $50k but seriously I won't advise you to follow any prediction but since you are contemplating to sell or hold why don't you sell off 50% of the bitcoin you holding and you can leave the remaining 50% and see what will happen is just a suggestion you can also look into it before taking any step.

That is on trading, but the reality is that bitcoin was created so that we could also have something that would be profitable to use it and not just hold it. Bitcoin is not only an asset but also a currency and you have to remember that. Which means the more bitcoins you trade, the more you are missing out on profiting by using it, plus you could always earn it by working for it as well which would be both a great investment but also great way of using it as well.

I get that we are in the trading section and everyone wants to talk about selling or holding right now but I am just here for reminding people the third option : using it. If you end up using it, that means there will be more people with bitcoin in the world and that will increase the price and all of us can profit from that. However if I had to pick selling or hodling, I would definitely hodl.

Forum users can share their opinions but being perfectly honest with you, no one knows how the future will unfold. I think that the demand is only going to increase with time while the supply is limited so speaking on that ground I think the price should only rise from here on but then there are sudden and sharp falls too which are unexplained because the supply is never going to suddenly increase so why the prices dropped.

If I was in your place, I would liquidate a little amount when price touched around 40k and then wait for the drop to happen as it did happen and then buy again at 32k. I know it sounds easy in hindsight because when 40k was touched, there were news about reaching 100k too and hard to sell during bull run.

That's actually one of the common questions that we all have especially when we're all in the midst of being undecided where all we could do is just rely on other's opinions. As for me, things will depend on your objective. If you invested to gain a profit even just for a short period of time then it's already good to sell but if you have invested for a long-term hold then risking would be the bravest thing that you can do. Upon investing, you should know what your goal is so you won't have to rely on the decision of others.

Markets show that price will stable b/w 3000$ to 35000$. So one should not deprived if bitcoin price down and wait for price to raise to 40k. I believe that bitcoin will make a High Ath in two month. Ao hold and wait for profit.

I think it also depends on what the money means to him. If he needs the money badly and cannot afford to face loss then I would strongly advice to sell before it drops and you feel depressed. If you can hold on for an year or two then one might be cashing their coins @500k and I am not even joking given the hike we saw this year.

Yes, maybe put a stop loss or sell order at a lower price in case the market crumbles overnight and you are unable to keep up with the drop. It is a serious problem for all investors when to sell and buy but people who have hold are more happy today and this means something ;).

Some people watch their portfolio grow over time when btc price climb and these people still watching when btc price again goes down. In 2017 many people didn't book profits when btc hit 20k and they want more. These same people sell their BTC under 10k when they lose faith by seeing a downtrend. BTC market is very volatile so it will be wise to book some profits when you still can.

don't be greedy, if you have bought bitcoin when the price is below $ 20k you have got so much profit from your investment, if you are greedy, then the profit you have will certainly be lost, don't let the situation in 2017-2018 repeat itself to us, indeed bitcoin hype still bullish but the dominance of bitcoin is decreasing, this makes it difficult for Bitcoin to go up again, if your target is $ 40k you should have reached it.

Even if you wait longer than right after you selling it, you will regret it in the future when it becomes bigger. For example, the people who sold at 20k on 2017 peak would have been happy that they sold at the top, but if they didn't get back in later, and never bought any bitcoin ever again, they have missed 41k, that is a bit over double what they sold for, so basically they have missed on a 2x chance if they didn't get back in bitcoin.

We are talking about 3 year high being 2x missed opportunity, so it is always a regret to sell. Only time you should sell your coins is when you know what you want to do with the amount of money you have, if you sell it and use it for something smart, like repaying all of your mortgage type of stuff or student loans americans have, those are smart things but if it is not like that, you are going to be upset in the future for sure.

You know its not wrong to follow the predictions of other "experts", reading blogs or monitoring the marketcap because we can gain idea from it to know the best decision to commit for our investment.

However we are the only one who can say if this is the perfect time to sell because we already see a profit. To answer your question, I wont sell my bitcoin at lesser price because it means I failed despite of my knowledge on crypto. I'd rather wait and hold, then forget that I invested in bitcoin and come back if the price is already acceptable to sell so I can take profit.

And Bitcoin is up again, a few thousand dollars in an hour or less! Bitcoin price moving surprised me many times in the last month or two...lucky I never cut loses with Bitcoin, I just leave them for the next price and rise, and that always happen, sooner or later!
As I said before, crazy times, and even thou many expect drop, we can see Bitcoin surpassing $40k, what more maybe we will stay there... questions that bothers me last days are: 1. Will we see $20k again?! What about +$10k?

This is an eternal problem for the trader and investor, to correctly determine where to sell the coin and where to buy it) You have to learn how to make such decisions on your own, because you are risking your wallet. And if yesterday the short was relevant, today in one hour the market situation has changed to the opposite, when the price of BTC increased in price by $5000.

On the off chance that the cost will be low that time purchases and hold the bitcoin. At that point sit tight at the cost increment that time you sell or trade any coins. So check the market cost regular. I would prompt against selling, particularly now, since you'll have the option to sell at a greater cost soon enough. I wouldn't circumvent understanding expectations on the off chance that I were you, anybody can post anything.

Those so called "experts" have zero power over bitcoin as well, that is the point, if you have no influence at all then how could you even be an expert. Elon Musk wrote bitcoin on his bio and suddenly we are over 35k already, that should be enough to tell you how a person with real influence can change the market.

I can say bitcoin will go down as much as I want but as long as I can't convince people, who am I to call myself expert, all those so called experts are similar to me, they do not have any power over bitcoin more than me, which means they make up some numbers and predictions but fail to deliver because they are not really involved as much as they think they are involved. In order for someone to be expert, they need to be capable of convincing enough people to listen to them, I would say Elon is a better bitcoin expert than all the ones calling themselves experts.

Every trader tries to set their target in advance. Later that target may change for various reasons as the market moves forward. We all know how far Bitcoin can go in the long run, but traders try to get an idea in advance about short-term market price changes by doing market analysis.

In order to make a profit by trading at the right time, they can increase the amount of bitcoin they hold.

You know what's the problem with it? Next year you will face the same question because no matter how high the prices went it always feel like we should wait more. So you have to make up the mind and define where you want to sell and how much profit is enough for you. Too much greed can let you down while panicking is always horrible so make up your mind for a specific price and whenever it is reached just sell it. And hey you can always buy again too so its not like its one way deal.

I tried it but failed quite embarrassingly because the market was moving in one direction and I had to either buy and sell with $50 change which was not profitable or if I waited for big movement like 200-300 then it was not happening.

Doesnt matter neither you do chose for going on long term or short terms as long you  do make profits and that what matter most.When it comes  to the question
if you should sell or hold your bitcoin then this will be particularly talks on someones decisions when it comes to his treatment about his own investment that are on  bitcoin.
If he do sees that it is worth to be held of for long term then he should hold but if he would like to see profits in short time basis then active trading would be the way.
We  do have different insights or inputs towards our investment and profitability is what we do  aim for since from the beginning.

it's like you have a treasure. If you knew your assets would double in the next year, would you sell your assets or would you hold onto a bigger profit later?
make wise steps before you are on the wrong next step. so hold the best choice, but do not rule out sell as needed

Your biggest problem is that seemingly you just bought your coins because of the fear or missing out and now you are in a bad situation, you need to learn from this experience and never make a trade unless you have a well defined strategy about what to do in every single circumstance that you may find yourself to be in, you do not know what to do because you never considered the scenario of bitcoin just not moving upwards anymore, if you can breakeven then sell and begin to learn more about the markets and create a strategy, otherwise this is going to keep happening to you.

As I can see with you, your not sure about what you are doing now to your Holdings(Bitcoin).
And I saw that you had a little doubt in Bitcoin in terms of its price value that will increase in the future.
If you believe in Bitcoin, you should hold some of your holdings in the long term dude, just a suggestion.

I don't think being greedy is a factor why we should aim high, maybe we could just say that it was an ambitious dream that someone can do freely.
It is just like saying I want to get rich and that is the reason why we should have to work hard in order to get our goal.

If we have noticed that many crypto holders keep buying for they wanted to make more money, that is pretty simple because they wanted to reach what they aim for. I'll buy Bitcoin at $20k, hold and wait for $40k, that is my call and I know most of us here aiming for that. 

To me it seems the OP just wanted to obtain some easy and fast profits and was surprised when bitcoin took a downturn and now he does not want to sell for a loss, while understandable at the same time it seems he did not thought this very well and he seems unsure of what to do, right now the price has recovered somewhat so I suppose he should be closer to breakeven in which case he should sell as there is no way for him to obtain profits when he does not seem to be convinced in bitcoin as a project at all.

if you see a good opportunity right now why should you sell bitcoin? I think hold is easier and better for now than you dump your assets at low prices. potential bitcoins could be as high as $ 50k. Do you want to miss the best of that? think about it

I think today is best for selling. If today dump bitcoin price you need long time hold. So i suggest you can sell now.

Never sell your Bitcoin at a loss, so selling Bitcoin when it is profitable. As long as it's not profitable, I recommend that you just HODL your
Bitcoin. Moreover, this year it is very clear that Bitcoin is still in a bullish trend, so there is a big chance Bitcoin will continue to rise in price.
In fact, I predict this year at least Bitcoin will hit a price of $ 100k. In my opinion, it is better to focus on investing in Bitcoin than selling Bitcoin
and choosing to invest in the stock market. Because if you compare the profit generated by Bitcoin is much greater than any stock market.

A lot of these crypto traders on this forum may encourage you to trade out of $ETH or $BTC

If i were you, you should be to hold and acquire as much $ETH and $BTC as possible and only spend it to make more. If you have doubts, just hold
However, if u want more profit trade it. Kucoin BTC-USDT trading pair (https://trade.kucoin.com/BTC-USDT) has the best liquidity not as big as binance but its more cheaper to trade there.   

Indeed bitcoin still has the opportunity to experience the condition of NEW ATH again, but it seems that the decision to sell is dependent on the needs of each, I think it does not harm to sell some of our bitcoin assets when it is needed the most important conditions produced are still in a state of profit. Because it looks like bitcoin movements will still undergo correction conditions before returning to NEW ATH with a target of $50k.

Selling at loses is not advisable except you have an urgent need that is life threatening and no other source of fund, or you see an opportunity to buy into a token that can make up for the lost fund. But if you want to still hold Bitcoin, patience is needed to recover your loses.

Some people may not think the way you think and some people may have even made a profit from trading. Think about it this way, bitcoin was at around 40k right? If you had 1 bitcoin at 40 thousand dollars and sold it, you would now own 40 thousand dollars instead right?

Well, when the price went to 30k, you could now rebuy bitcoin, and you could get 1.3 bitcoins, you used to have 1 bitcoin, now thanks to this move you own 1.3 bitcoin, increased your profit by 30%+. Now that the price reached back to 40k again, your 1.3 bitcoin worths 52k dollars. That means with one move you have now made 12k dollar profit, keep doing that and you will get rich from the spread movements.

I am not saying everyone should do that, it would be difficult for everyone to do it at the same time, but I am just saying that if people were scared and sold that is another thing, but if they believed it would go down and they could buy cheaper that is understandable.

So you are a newbie who started this thread on 24th January 2021 and never returned to post here again?

In the mean time you have started other threads and and made a total of 5 subsequent posts as recent as yesterday but never back to this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2868803;sa=showPosts

I was about to post giving my views to the question asked but something did not add up but after looking at your posting history I decided if you were that serious about wanting replies you would have respected the forum members that posted here and interacted with them just as they gave you respect and posted their replies to what you asked.

At this time I do know for sure that the price is still going up as it is approaching $40,000 and then may start approaching $50,000 as well and I can’t tell where it will stop. I know that this time is a time to be at alert because it has reached a price that most of us never expected it to reach and it can take a turn at any time. But you can still profit partially with hope that it will reach $50,000 and maybe cross it a bit.

My humble advice would be, this year end must be a perfect time to book profits and we cannot be sure because unlike previous bull run this time bulls may dominate for more than 12 months also because when institutional funds are into play and dominating, we cannot say how long bull run will last.

I doubt that OP is at loss. But it's a common mistake that many holders do. When they are uncertain with the decision that they are about to commit, they sell at losses without realizing that there's no need to rush if they are holders of bitcoin. Well, a few ago I think it's okay to make mistakes such as selling bitcoin at a loss because you're still in the experimental phase and you're in the learning process but on these days. I wouldn't sell any at loss even for satoshis.

He had sold that time and Buy again after because that's only correction and this is what traders wait to come.
I am In good faith since December but when the price fell down last month to 28,000 I bought more again to add in my holding.
Bitcoin for couple of times tried to break 41,000 again yet failure but i know in the next weeks or Month 50,000$ is the ATH for our Good profit because this is my selling price and will wait for correction again to rebuy .

Many people will sell at much lower prices like 30k or 40K thinking that bitcoin cannot reach more than this price. Other people know that bitcoin can easily reach 100,000K, but as soon as bitcoin dump little, they get panic and sell their bitcoin. These people will miss the real profits when bitcoin will reach the market cycle top which could be between 150,000$ - 200,000$. So in my opinion, we should not sell now at cheap prices.

Wait for the candles to cross the support level. If it breaks the support line than you can sell. Because it means the chances of price falling is very high at this moment.
If it doesn’t come down than wait until it touch the resistance level.
If it can break the resistance level than its better to hold because price will increase gradually.

There are people who sell right now who do not think that bitcoin can't reach 100k, they think it can reach 100k and it will reach 100k, there are just some people who sell because they think before it reaches 100k it could go down to 30k and then they can buy more and they will keep it until it reaches 100k price.

That is at least the line of thinking a trader has, I have a friend who does daily trading and he buys and sells almost at any price, doesn't mean that he doesn't think bitcoin won't reach 100k, he just believes that instead of buying and waiting for it to go up, he might as well buy/sell everyday constantly and make even more money than someone who just buys and sells. Sometimes they make more money that way and sometimes they make less money that way, it doesn't really matter because they are not selling it with the hopes that price would go down.

Take profits just as it starts to fall after in peaks. Take your profits out. Then you could buy back in low again, but it’s risky to know when Elon or others like Tesla might lose faith in bitcoin and it may tank.
When reach 50k convert it to Altcoin

Depends on you. Do YOU want to sell? Have you reached your profit goal? Do you need the money now? Are you "afriad" that you might lose everything in the future? If yes, then sell. If no, then why even think about selling? Keep holding and you might make a fortune in the future!
I see no reason for anyone to sell now. As it becomes more mainstream, chances are the price will skyrocket even more in the future!
Then sell. But I doubt that "prosmising stock" is going to be more profitable than holding bitcoin.

Yeah, we want to take our profit and aftee that we want to reinvest our capital. But we should favor our luck. Sometimes it can't be possible to buy with low price. Then we miss the train to buy bitcoin at a low price.

Sometimes it is the opposite of what we think. Because the market moves at its own pace. Any trader who opens his position decides when he will sell his position. And the state of the market now, I think it is better to hold more without selling now. However, if he thinks that he has already made enough profit then he can sell his bitcoin and secure the profit.

Selling off would really be depending on what are your goals or targets because if you do go for long term then theres no point for you to sell on these prices

but hey basing off on the price then its not really a bad idea to do so since you can always buyback if you wanted to if the price had made out some consolidation state or in correction.

with that you can make out profits without needing for you to wait up for years before releasing your bags.If you do see this as a good situation or advantageous for you then
its not bad to alter out some long term hold decisions.

The problem is with the mentality of the traders themselves, they begin to trade or to invest and they never even consider the possibility of making a bad move and losing money, which is surprising because that is very common so when they find themselves in that situation they do not know what to do and begin to have all kind of doubts about their own performance, this shows that they were not prepared to face any kind of adversity in this market and as such they should not trade at all.

The price of bitcoin is steadily rising at the moment. I think for those who have bought bitcoin, it is necessary to hold bitcoins because if you hold bitcoins, I can expect bitcoin to go above 50,000 $.  Then it may be more profitable for you so I think it would be very good for us to hold bitcoin

If the price of Bitcoin in the market continues to increase. Do I have to sell it at that time or even wait until the limit of the price increase? because if we look at Bitcoin is now experiencing an increase in price. But there is one thing that worries me. I was holding back from selling it, then the price of Bitcoin suddenly fell from the price that is currently rising.

After the investment in bitcoin by Elon Musk of $ 1.5 billion, bitcoin rose in price to $ 46,000, this is the only indicator that the increase is not artificial, you can at least consolidate your income on this hype and wait for its further growth.

I feel by this time you will know what you would lose if you sell BTC in the short term. I give the same suggestion to anyone who's asking me this question.
Do you have a need for money or you just wanna sell BTC and hold cash..? If you are just going to hold the currency then better keep it in Bitcoin. The price will go up eventually regardless of what the price is right now.. So make a strong decision and just go with it.

That's right since by now we are at the peak so anytime the dump will trigger if this big whales like elon will start to dump up and want to accumulate more bitoins at lower rate. That's why if we cannot take the risk and doesn't know how to counter when there's a correction happen is to make sure to always secure the possible profit if we can sight some good changes in our positions.

bitcoin has made another renewable ATH yesterday and corrections made so far are common. I really appreciate what you say that don't panic quickly to see the situation and movement of bitcoin. because bitcoin has often done that from last year even today. so it has become the work of bitcoin now it continues to move up and down.

true, don't sell when the bitcoin price drops because it will bring losses, it's better to hold on to it because bicoin will increase again. so it needs a strong belief in dealing with situations like today with bitcoin behavior.

$50k seems easy to be reached within a few days or a week or so. That target will easily be met very soon. Holders will always win for bitcoin but I'm not sure for most altcoins. And there are holders who are thinking of selling their bitcoin for altcoins because they see that it's more pumping lately. But with that decision, it will determine their confidence because in bitcoin, you don't have to put that much pressure and effort by easily holding it.

To date, bitcoin is confidently on its feet and shows good growth dynamics, for me, earlier forecasts for bitcoin of $ 100 thousand were not real, now that bitcoin is worth $ 45 thousand today, now I do not think so, I would hold bitcoin, it will still pleasantly surprise us.

You won't find answers to everyone you sourced out because it is entirely up to the trader if the profit is at the "okay" rate now.
You're the one who gets to decide.
Needing money right now? I am sure that you're not gonna let BTC in your wallet right now and consider selling.
If you need it, don't hold it.
That's why people tend to hammer out the idea that you should invest the one worth losing.

As far as I can see, BTC has already shown excellent growth, and probably if you bought BTC earlier, then if you sell it now, you will get an excellent profit. However, you point out that if you sell it now, then you will be at a loss, it turns out that you bought it quite recently? If so, then you definitely need to keep your BTC and by the summer you will see how it will show a new height. My opinion is that if you buy BTC, you should immediately decide at what price you will sell it. This will help you create a goal for yourself and move towards it.

You will get more into dilemma as people keep on adding their own comments or thoughts about it. The thing is everyone will have their own opinion. For example I am completely positive about Bitcoin future and since the first day it has shown upward momentum with little drops in between. So I have actually decided to keep on depositing more and more bitcoin so that I can have highest possible returns from it. This may not be your strength and you may fear of missing out the higher values and sell. I think you should go as per your needs and visions regarding finances plus bitcoin.

Unless you need the money now, I think nobody should sell the Bitcoin, particularly this year when the exposure is at its highest

Looking at the current market situations and involvement of institutes and companies I think it is better to hold on to your BTC for now as there are speculation about BTC breaking $50k barrier in coming weeks. So if you don't need money for an emergency situation (God forbid) then do not sell your BTC.

If you did hodl your Bitcoin since the time you posted this thread of yours, for sure you've earned a lot of profits by now because Bitcoin skyrocketed again after Tesla bought Bitcoin worth of $1.5 billion of it. Bitcoin is the king of all coins when it comes to holding because of its huge volatility compare to other coins in the market. The only problem with other people who invested in Bitcoin and hold it is that they don't have patient and trust to Bitcoin.

In short, once the market enter the bear market after a huge pump creating a huge FOMO, people will start to panic because they will start to think that it is a scam already and they will start to lose their profits resulting to a sudden selling of their Bitcoin, which is technically a lose of profit already.

Will bitcoin raise above $50,000 looking with current market situations and many positive news every day with adopted bitcoin as legal currency transaction payment in company. Now holder bitcoin are coming not only from investor as individual but also many bigger company wanna make celebrate happy with bitcoin as good investment assets for the future,

Those who will sell bitcoin now, will feel themselves very unlucky when bitcoin will reach 70-80K and more. If anyone did not have any need to cash out urgently, he should not think of selling his coins.
What's the point of selling bitcoin when big companies like Tesla are buying bitcoins.

Why sell now? If you look at the current market situation there is a huge potential that price will reach more than $50k. The adoption is growing and there is a large institution also supported and invest in bitcoin. If you are not in a rush holding bitcoin is a wise decision. But, still, a reminder that in this market price is volatile so you also have to remember the risks.

I agree. This is not the time to sell (maybe buy but not sell BTC) it seems that Tesla has set the trend for companies to join in. This is what the market today has reached yet a new ATH. Instead of selling, try to keep an eye on the market so that you catch a good 'tip of the iceburg' that way you can ensure close to maximum profit.

I hope that after Tesla we may see many other institutions interested in buying bitcoin and this time there is an institutional fomo rather than the retail fomo. Since the purchasing power of institutes is far more than retail investors, we may see bitcoin price rising to new heights in very small amount of time.

If you do not have a plan to invest into something else or have any reason to spend that money, I think you should hold it in bitcoin, in fact you should probably build a portfolio and not just bitcoin only. I personally believe that bitcoin is great and I will not get out of crypto unless I have a better idea, but the reality is that if I could get out and find something much better to invest into, I would probably do that.

I have a business idea in my mind that I want to build, but I want to have at least 2 years of salary in my pocket, so that when I start, I will be capable of paying everything (even unexpected costs) for the business and also have 2 years of salary in my pocket to start, if I do that, after 2 years if the idea failed I would still go back to working. I won't quit before that, and I think this will take another 10 years at least.

Personally I see bitcoin as a form of investment, You have host of options you can sell and use the money to do something else (As a bitcoin evangelist I strongly advise against that), you can keep your bitcoin and watch it grow more like the way you would buy amazon or tesla stock and hold till it rise then sell. Lastly you can trade with it.(If you are not an experienced trader don't try it, you bitcoin will disappear in an instant.). My advice would be to keep your bitcoin and watch as it moons hopefully by then you will become a millionaires hopefully. :D (Remember to invest what you can afford)

What you said is right, we are seeing some excellent opportunity for the people who bought the Bitcoin at the early stages because most of the richest men entering. Instead of selling it lower value better hold it for the long term because many Institutional investors will enter into the crypto market in the coming days.

I do hope also that after Tesla's company decision to enter the world of cryptocurrency it may attract also some good and big company to invest in it too. But let's get back to the OP's thread, if i were you as long as you didn't need that money better to keep your bitcoin at safe either you choose to keep it in a long term investment or hodl it. I'd still looking a positive outcome for the bitcoin market. It maybe undergo some price correction but i guess this time it wouldn't dump its value like before.

At the present time I want to tell you that you can hold as many bitcoins as you want because Bitcoin is one of the world's most popular currencies and Bitcoin I think everyone is using it now I think the price of Bitcoin is much higher now.  I think we need to wait in a very short time to be able to grow

That will be depending on your preference. Some did the long-term holding while the others are relying on the market trend in which they can sell anytime if they want. I do the sell anytime as well if I already hit my target.

I was learning from my bad experience last 2017 Bullrun, I was really in regrets not selling when it reaches almost $20k. I was still on hold because of some influence and overly thinking that it has gone too far, but unfortunately, the sudden drops give me a reason to sell at the declining trend. For this 2nd chance, I respect every up the market did and take the opportunity as well.

I agree, unless you have some real need for cash at the moment it is better to keep your coins, yes I know that anyone that does it is taking a risk that the price goes down but that comes with the territory, that's why we are in this market, for the chances of seeing the value of our coins to go up and I really think that the chances right now are in our favour, so why should we get out of a position in which we have an advantage? That doesn't really make a lot of sense to me, but if some people want to sell their coins they can do whatever they want with their coins.

I found it missing, what was your drive in the first place for holding an wholesome portion because that should have taken care of most of your concerns raised! If you would be dancing to the rhythm of analysts and sites for what to do with your bitcoin, I think you have just missed the point.

Have a clarity. Just go for a partial selling. Even if the market pops up once again you won't experience a massive loss. You've requested for the suggestion by the month end of January. Now it is almost mid of February, till date if you haven't sold then you'd have recorded some good profit. If you're with fear then take away the profit.

Whatever might be, you have to decide according to your necessity and market prediction. Receiving suggestions is good, but the decision is all yours.

With the price getting better now, it is obviously good to hold your bitcoins but that doesn't mean that you can't sell either. Timing is one of the best ways for you to do both. There are times that we actually needed money and I've been there, we've all been there.

If you have nothing to do with that funds though, better keep on holding it. $50K is just around the corner. We are getting close.

True. It is not right time to sell BTC unless you need cash badly and there is nothing else to sell out. Technical charts are Bullish and if it breaks out from here then, according to Fibonacci Table next likely level is 50 to 51K and even it can hit 54 before we see any correction.

sometimes it is not right to make a full sale or to hold completely because we don't know what the actual market conditions are like. must be smart in utilizing the market and know our assets to get a profit. so sell or hold is really your choice but you must be careful before choosing it

I am not worried about that correction though. For sure a lot of investors are waiting for that to happen so that they would be able to buy or reinvest. You never know when will the price dumps like that and since we are all talking about $100K now, for sure, they are all waiting for that window, for that chance to reinvest.

I think more and more companies/corporations would invest and follow Tesla so it is the best time to hold your bitcoin.

Most, I mean, those who sell their Bitcoin earlier will do asking for the Bullrun to stop and reinvest again. It is kinda ridiculous but that is the reality now.

It is not guaranteed for the market to reach $100k but it close to the possibility that it has a huge correction someday. Those people wanting to get back in crypto for a cheaper price will have to keep an eye on the market coz that's still unpredictable. But, they should have to wait quite long as the current momentum still never changes.

Since many researchers has reviewed what will happen in this year 2021 concerning bitcoin price, that is making many people to start selling their coins hoping that the price of bitcoin will dump.it is good  hold your coins because this is just the beginning of bitcoin pumping.

If bitcoin can reach $50k in the second month of 2021, show that those trader that will hold up till June will really make a good income, when the price of bitcoin will be close to $100k. This year is a year of profit making for those who will not be in hast to sell their coins now because bitcoin pumping is heading to $100k before the end of the year.

And the decision must always be our own cause it gives satisfaction even if we end up profiting less than expected.

All the articles and news about Bitcoins are solely based on how the price is moving and hardly any news covers the real value and demand/supply of the Bitcoins which is what we all should be actually discussing. Pricing of Bitcoins is just an indicator which might be false too, about how much the demand and supply is for Bitcoins right now.

Imagine someone holding 50k Bitcoins or even more can create an illusion as if the supply is less while in reality it is just him freezing some coins to create that illusion.

Also depends on what the money you have invested in bitcoins means to you because someone who is making living out of trading has no option but to sell and buy again because they cannot block their funds as investment. While those who bought bitcoins with a sole purpose of investment might want to wait for an year or so to get the best value off their investment in bitcoins.

Remember guys this time not just bitcoin but every other coin and token is jumping to their new ATH which means the demand is literally increasing and its not because of some groups or individuals manipulating the market to later dump the market and cause a carter.

If that huge correction will happen, then I think it will happen for a short period of time. That kind of correction will be the ones that these people are hoping to happen. It is their chance to be able to reinvest or buy bitcoin since we will never know when will that kind of correction happens.

They should really keep their eyes on the market price. Bitcoin is so volatile nowadays and they might miss some huge opportunities.

Yes you can hold but try to compared both things in terms of profitability level or amount.

Holding and trying to reach out 2x or several percentage into your coins or portfolio unlike if you do actively trade where you can even earn more than with that but of course
this one accompanied with risk but if you do want to play much safer then holding is ideal.

But if you are the ones who do like to enjoy profits in short time then you would need to deal with it.

Isn't Microstrategy converting $900M to BTC today 2/19?

In my opinion it is very unwise to go against bitcoin especially during a bull run, there is a common saying that states that the trend is your friend and this is true in this market, going against the trend and tying to predict when the top is going to be reached is a useless exercise, anyone that sold their coins at the 50k level now is probably lamenting their mistake as bitcoin is growing once again and it is just a matter of time until we get to 60k, so it is better to keep our coins and only sell once it is completely clear the bitcoin market is crashing.

In the event that the cost will be low that time purchases and hold the bitcoin. At that point hang tight at the cost increment that time you sell or trade any coins. So check the market cost regular. I would exhort against selling, particularly now, since you'll have the option to sell at a more exorbitant cost soon enough. I wouldn't circumvent understanding expectations on the off chance that I were you, anybody can post anything.

I personally only hope for the long term perspective of my investment in Bitcoin. Of course, this year Bitcoin must definitely renew its maximum, but according to the statement of many analysts, Bitcoin can exceed its value several times in comparison with today's indicators and become a stable asset if its capitalization increases 20 times on average. I fully agree with this opinion and therefore I believe
that the future of Bitcoin depends not only on good news, but also on all investors, including each of us.

That will happen. It's more with the adoption and demand, whether there will be goods, bitcoin is still going to have its factor through fundamentals and the existing factors that are making its market move from time to time.
Good news is still going to affect the market but this time, there more good news than bad news because you see known companies invest in bitcoin.

Some analysts can be funny sometimes with their false predictions and statement about the Bitcoin market. I agreed that Bitcoin can exceed its existing value on several occasions but it can never be a stable asset. Every asset that is a product of speculation will never be a stable asset now or in the future.

If you are not really sure to hold all your Bitcoins, you can sell some of them. But I suggest to buyback once the price is dropping. Actually, the value of Bitcoin is always growing from one halving to another halving. So, if you have a plan to make big profits in the next halving with your current Bitcoin, you can hold them for the long-term assets. However, if you want to buy on the next bearish and take profits in this bullish, you can buy some of your Bitcoin.

My opinion you should sell,  because eventually the bitcoin should go to zero.
I have not talked much about it,  until today.  The thing that made me decide
to take a side in this is a report I read on it by a very famous economic analyst.

Here is my review of the report put out by
Jim Rickards on the bitcoin, edited and
shortened, pump and dump, is what the
basic scheme is:

Bitcoin is a classic bubble like many bubbles,
but most bubbles had relatively little outright
fraud.  In contrast, the Bitcoin bubble is based
almost entirely on fraud. when this bubble
bursts, the damage may be even greater and
the value of Bitcoin may disappear entirely.

Here’s how the fraud works as described in
this legal notice from the New York State Attorney
General.

A company called Bitfinex sponsors
a cryptocurrency called Tether. This crypto
is a so-called “stablecoin.” This means
that the value of one Tether is fixed at $1.00.
When you buy a Tether for $1.00, the money
is supposedly held in safe liquid assets. When
you cash in your Tether, you should receive
$1.00 in return (less small transaction costs).
No one has been able to locate the liquid assets
that supposedly back Tether.

Tether claims that its dollar reserves are  
in a Bahamian bank named Deltec Bank & Trust.
But independent research revealed that the
assets claimed by Tether exceed the total
U.S. dollar assets of the entire Bahamian
banking system.

Research showed that those who buy Tether use
them overwhelmingly to buy Bitcoin from unregulated
crypto-exchanges based in Africa and Asia.

These exchanges offer leverage and often award
“free” Tether coins for those who bring in new
customers. These Tethers have been used to bid
up the price of Bitcoin and create the bubble.

The dollars supposedly backing Tether are
unaccounted for.

When this scheme collapses bitcoin and tether
values will collapse quickly. Tether would be
unable to redeem retreating Bitcoin investors
(because of the unaccounted-for liquid assets).
The Tether crooks would walk away with dollars.

The prices of Bitcoin and Tether will collapse
catastrophically, Bitcoin holders will walk away
empty-handed.

One of the major factors that affect when to sell an asset, bitcoin in this case, is selling it at a price higher than the cost price so as to make profits.
Since the funds you invested in bitcoin are mainly for investment purposes because you said you were going to sell your coins to invest in a stock, I'd advise that you still hold to your coins for some time.
Secondly, I think you should not bother with analysts and the predictions they make. Many analysts have wrongly predicted the price of bitcoin over the years in that it'll go down only for bitcoin to disappoint them every time

The Indian government's intent to prohibit private cryptocurrencies, like Bitcoin, has spooked the existing cryptocurrency holders in the country. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Tuesday said that an inter-ministerial committee has suggested ban on private cryptocurrencies in India, except any virtual currencies issued by state. Though there is lack of clarity, but the industry experts believe these are serious challenges.

Indeed, it's best way to maximize profits from bitcoin and bitcoin is a great assets to get returns even if anyone buy that in any altseason. Halving is a major events for bitcoin as price of bitcoin is needed to pump to maintain the profitability of miners. So, buy bitcoin into correction and hodl or sell until next ATH or bull run. TBH, bearish season is a great time to grab more bitcoins and better to divide portfolio into two or three parts to reserve some funds for next bearish season.

If you have bought bitcoin some time ago, then I suppose you have made good profits, as the bitcoin price has constantly increased over the past few months. If that is the case, then it shouldn't be a problem for you to sell it now. Over the past two weeks or so, we have seen a lot of fluctuation in the price. So when the price comes down quite a bit, you can buy it again. If you have bought recently and haven't made profits yet then you can continue to hold.

now market  okk. sell your Bitcoin if you in profit. Because we know bitcoin up so much high. 2021 big year for crypto currency. this market is very risky for new investor and holder . sell your bitcoin i hope again you can buy bitcoin low price .

If you need no to spend then why sell your bitcoin ? those who sells their bitcoin is only in 2 part, either They are in panic or they wanted to make easy money.

which are you there?

So you mean that you are not selling your? is that what this mean?

It is difficult to give advice at the moment, if you have Bitcoin for investment and to live, it is obvious that you should withdraw a little for your needs, but I recommend that you can save as much bitcoins as possible for yourself, it has been proven over time that Bitcoin is valued much more, no matter that the price goes down, it is a safe investment.

Microstrategy even though its shares are down 50%, it bought a lot more bitcoins! Ignoring all the bad news about Bitcoin and all the possible FUDs, around $10 million more has been bought, if the big boys do it and you have confidence in Bitcoin, why not trust Bitcoin investment?

Sell for profit and buy back for stacking again.

Not for holders like me. I've experienced several downs and that didn't move me but made me stronger and more patient with all of the bearish turns that the market we've been with.

Investors choice if the bitcoin they keep is going to sell or is still holding because we are different possible prediction of the bitcoin. If you think it's time to sell you can do that if you want safe just sell the others and the rest wait until the price will go rise again because that is the investors do they did not sell all the bitcoin or coin that they have once it's very high because they chances the price will become higher.

although there are many articles that analyze bitcoin out there I think it comes back to you. What do you think of the future? have you also seen some bitcoin leaders, such as CZ and Elon Musk? if you already feel confident bitcoin will enter the bearish market in the near future you can sell it. However, if you are sure you can hold it.

Well i think it depends on the lemit that you have set or depends on your calculation and trust on bitcoin. If you buy bitcoin on last year 2018-2019 while bitcoin price is on dip i am sure that you have gain a big profit if you sell it this time. But as what i have said it depends on the lemit if you have trust that bitcoin will rise in the next few months then you can hold it and earn more.

Bitcoin's price will rise further so it is better to hold on than sell those who held on earlier have made a lot of profit but the market imposition will go upwards the demand for bitcoin investments is increasing. Therefore thinking about the future holding on will lead to further development we have to move forward believing how much will go next.

Its better to sell.
Because bear market is going to hit. So i think its better to exchange all of Your tokens in usdt.
And invest wisely. Try to analyze the market so that you can take decision whether you should hold or not. But from my opinion you should sell.

If you badly need money or something like that then you can sell bitcoin. But in my thinking Bitcoin price will increase more. Because this price is now volatile. In my opinion Bitcoin price will hit $60k in then middle of this year. So don't be paniced and wait some more days for making a good profit.

If you are satisfied enough with your profit, why not? Have you ever think that Bitcoin will reach $60k or $100k? If yes, then hold.

It matters on you and what you like you do with your capital because I sell it already and I have to buy again as the dumps (even short dumps) have come.

Sometimes we've been fooled by too much confidence that Bitcoin will go higher just like what we do last 2017. Not, we have the best opportunity, better not to lose the chance again.

Wonder if the OP already sold his bitcoin or not?
Because you can easily ask that question here, but at the end of the day, it is you, who can finally decide what to do with your bitcoins.
What are your goals for this bitcoin investment, is this for short-term or long-term?
If you want to sell, better sell it higher than your buying price, so you are not in the negative side of profit.
Bitcoin is a solid one as compared to thousands of alts. But it is all on you, how you will strategize to optimize your profits.

It will increase more, more than the ATH that we saw $58k. But you said it correctly that if you're in need and in a bad situation, you have to take care of yourself by selling it. But if you have other options instead of selling bitcoin, choose to sell your alts.

Bitcoin was been volatile since it has started.

Wise words, when we think about last bitcoin ATH and the current price, and seeing some revealing news that many institutional investors are interested in continuing to buy Bitcoin, apart from talking about a price wall that is above $ 50k, this is Notorious, however, you must be cautious in the movements, if you sell Bitcoin and then it reaches a new ATH you will have missed a historical event and the opportunity.

Fast forward, same deal if te value experienced heavy correction and you are still holding your assets, you'll be stuck and you need
more patience  waiting again for the bounce.

Bad thing to happen, once you'll see your asset's value is falling and  fear inside you win the very chance that you'll follow those fuds
and eventually you'll find yourself losing opportunities and much worse losing part of your first investment instead of making something decent.

Planning and sticking with your goals remove regrets while journeying to this business.

While some people are quitting smoking just so they could use the funds to buy BTC you on the other hand are about to sell?

Hold your BTC tight it could be your most prized possession right after the pandemic. Many of the early investors already regret selling it cheap and now they are trying to invest again for a price they thought wouldn't even be possible. Its 50k for now but it won't be long we'd be breaking another ATH.

Yes, the market is looking good for anyone trader that wish to sell bitcoin right now because the price of bitcoin will dump soon. This season we are is not for holding bitcoin than to release to market for sale so that the person will be part of this profit that is going round the market.
Many traders are still doubting the season we are, if to sell or hold for future in case the price of bitcoin change in the market. According to some researcher who really view the market very well came to discovered that the price of bitcoin will dump to $20k before the end of this week. This is the right time for real trader to smile with their trade in the market so that they will not experience negative result from their trade.

My recommendation is hold bitcoins and don't sell at low costs, since, supposing that you sell at low costs you will just get misfortunes and dissatisfactions. In the event that the cost will be low that time purchases and hold the bitcoin. At that point hang tight at the cost increment that time you sell or trade any coins. So check the market cost ordinary.

Hope that Armani123 at least reads posts in topics that he created. Otherwise what is the point of creating them, asking for an advice and makes a statement, get hundreds of comments and leave everything.

So Armani123 hesitates, hold bitcoin or not. He hasnt mentioned how long he has been holding it already and at what price he bought his bitcoins. If he is holding for few months, than I would suggest keep on doing it. If he has been holding for few years and now fear of fomo - sell part and it will calm you down.

Well said, bitcoin is on the bullish trend. Right now it is good to hold the bitcoin than selling. As said it is good to spend on bitcoin avoiding the unwanted expenses. Surely the market is gonna reach $100k and high with time. More and more ATH are to be reached in the upcoming months. So, holding is the better choice than selling it.

If I read your review, when you wrote this thread on January the 24th you were still in a losing position, I don't know what price you bought bitcoin for.
But if you haven't made a profit, no one advises you to sell your bitcoins, because  you  haven't  made a  profit  yet. If you  stick to it, and haven't sold
your bitcoin, now you've made a lot of profit. And I'm sure bitcoin will continue to rise.

If I give my personal opinion, I will suggest you to sell your bitcoin now and buy some potential coin with lower price. After some days when price drops, then you will be able to buy bitcoin again.

The situation of everyone varies. Some do that to get some bitcoin and when he has enough cash value with the bitcoins he's holding, he will eventually going to sell it too just as op and the others asking whether to sell it today or soon.

I'm one of those investors that have sold it cheaply, I do somehow regret it but only for those sales that I've made with no purpose. But if it has a purpose, that's a good sale.

The risky thing about this movement is that bitcoin can rise to a new ATH, if that happens the Altcoins fall in price because they will not want to miss the movement of Bitcoin, today it reached $ 54k, it is very possible that it will continue to rise in price, you see You have to wait a bit to be able to have benefits, institutional investment is becoming present, there are also new investors who are putting their money in Bitcoin, I would really trust Elon Musk, Microestrategy that despite their shares are falling, they have bought Bitcoin and they continue to buy, if they do it is because they have a high belief index that it will continue to rise and a lot.

Yeah, I'd sometimes ask myself if I hold or not. We are now reaching $40k, really tempting but what if by tomorrow it reaches $60k.

Now I realize that if we are watching the market trend every day, every hour, or every minute the more it drags us to sell. This why many investors were not able to hold but tempted to sell because they always do the price checking. I suggest that,  if we are decided to hold for 5 years, then we have to check it 5 years from now then.

It's time to strong hold. Why we are selling Bitcoin as it is a valuable asset? It will hit 2x-3x price from the current price and for a great pump, we should wait for this situation. Don't sell at this time and if possible buy some more bitcoins for more profile.

I agree, better not to sell right now. Over the last several months the price dropped a few times 10-15% but always recovered. Right now BTC is close to 55,000 USD again. For me it is also a strong hold. I would rather sell some alt coins instead of BTC, probably also because I have so little. If I had 10+ BTCs I would maybe sell 10% or so, but not right now.

The question has been posed for quite some time, but I hope you have made a good choice to keep bitcoins in check for a long bull run and not throw your computational effort into the hole while selling them.  In fact, many speculations are true given the strong support of bitcoin from the participating financial institutions.  It is the vision and adoption of innovation that has caused the price of bitcoin to go beyond the form of payment.  Bitcoin has become the most valuable tangible asset.  In your situation, in my opinion it's just a hold or cut loss.  But always prevail in this trend.  If you see that bitcoin plummeted to $ 44k by the end of February but the effect is still strong after the correction, then the value is already close to hitting the ATH level earlier.

More plans of selling when it reaches $100k.

Sell some and hold some. That could be the best decision that one holder can think of. It's very tempting to sell but what's the purpose of your holding and at which price you'll sell some? a sell that's necessary and no regrets after being done.

The first thing I need to know, when do you buy bitcoin? if you buy Bitcoin for 20k or 10k you have managed to have more profit than you think, because Hold is what the experts say! But if you buy at a price of more than 50k, and you want to hold for a long time, I suggest not , because the price of Bitcoin could dump again to 20k or 30k, keep playing smart, don't be careless to buy.

Hodling is not for the faint of heart, and whenever you are hodling there's no point changing tons of sites for market price predictions or whatever, you have to buy and hold without thinking of selling anytime soon, but as for your case it seems it's different, anyway the choice to sell your bitcoin is totally up to you, if you feel you can't wait for the price to pump or skyrocket in the future  then yeah go ahead and dump as long as you are in profit, it's your crypto do whatever you wish with it.

It really depends on the hand of the holder if you think your hands is not that strong to hold maybe you need to sell your bitcoin holding this time, specially when you purchase your bitcoin last year where bitcoin is not to high at price, i believe that theres already an earnings or profit as well, but if you think you can hold for so many years then hold for it, because i believe that the bitcoin will soon rise.

If you are not in need for money don't sell BTC. Just hold it will keep growing in price. Every day we see more institutions investing in it so it will grow over the longer period of time.

Here is my advice don't sell for lower price at least if you had bought higher price. Although if do you have bought btc in cheap price under $20k then welcome to sell and take your profits now. Actually btc ATH good move everyday so if you can take long time holding then you will receive good profits. Even you should analysis first then we will find a best decision. Otherwise if you would like important our decision then you can't make profits from crypto market.

^ This is definitely the right answer and always keep in mind that selling under the price where did you purchase your BTC was blindly accepted the loss you have or you are already a loser in that way. If you feel that you have earned 20-50% profit, just cut it off, don't too much greedy because sometimes the more we wanted to profit the more opportunities will stay away. During the deep price in the market just keep hold your coin and never get FUD among by others that result from panic selling or else, just hold at least after 4 years when there is another BTC halving that makes BTC went up the price as always the most anticipated event.

I want to believe that by now, you've probably sold your bitcoin as bitcoin made a new all time high weeks after you created this thread, congratulations to you @op if you later sold at a price higher than that which you bought it or sorry for you loss due to impatience if you later sold at a price below that which you bought it.
Personally, If am ever going to be buying bitcoins as I currently have none, I will be 100 percent ready to keep them for long term and not for the purpose of quick short term gain, bitcoin has proven to us many times that it is an asset very good for long term investment, any short term profit gotten from bitcoin is just a little amount compared to what one can make holding bitcoin for long.

That mistake of selling at a lower price had been done by too many panic sellers. They have been taken for granted because they rely on their emotion. They've thought that it's not going to last anymore and the favor is not with them. If they don't have to sell, they can hold until they can because that's the only thing that they have to do. You don't sell at loss and if you're at loss and you can see it with the value of bitcoin that you're holding, you only have to hold.

Those who panic I think are very easily controlled by emotions,
Of course it's not good because we should be able to control ourselves not to sell it,
indeed it is not easy but if we are patient and think clearly maybe we will not panic and apart from it all for me panic is a natural thing and hopefully we can learn from it

bitcoin holder should be proud with their investment, there are only 21 million coins  and never printed again. this assets was be very rare when completely minted and no more left.  in next several years bitcoin maybe will be most expensive assets ever, so selling it now to early. if we use this investment with free money ,our mental or psychology should be fine when we see its move with high volatility.

Panic is a human thing, but psychological pressure like this must be controlled so that we can achieve the targets that have been planned. I'm also still thinking about holding on to the bitcoins that I have, even though I'm actually still profitable. because I still think this is an investment

It is always good to have an open mind about the posibilities of bitcoin! Bitcoin is beyond speculative asset as some will bet to disagree. Bitcoin is very valuable and useful for the world where money is not what it is! If I were you, I will hold my bitcoin and increase mywealth. Bitcon is not 'get rich quick'  but a long term asset that become valuable as years passes by.

holding bitcoin is the best thing to do i totally agree with your suggestion that bitcoin is a long term asset and over time it will continue to increase from year to year and renewable ATH will always be formed. whenever you buy bitcoin is not a problem but whether you can afford to hold it for a long time at least after the halving (4 years), because there will always be an increase from old ATH to renewable ATH.

even if you dare to speculate now bitcoin has also become daily trading because the movement between down and up in the stock market is very fast and if you are smart to analyze then you will get additional benefits from bitcoin, while waiting for a long term.

This is what im doing on where most of the time the bitcoin or coins that i do able to accumulate is been saved on a hardware wallet but when im in need then those coins would really tend to be deducted because whats money if you wont be using it anyway? As long you wouldnt spend it all and save up for the future years then you should be fine.We know the potential of bitcoin when it comes to future runs so majority is really trying out their best to accumulate while they can even though the price is way too expensive at the moment but to think that we can gather on smaller parts which is great.

That's right if we think that by investing in bitcoin it will make us rich quick I think that's a big mistake,
and I don't see anyone get rich quick from bitcoin,
because it takes time too and therefore bitcoin is a long term asset

Yes whatever you said, is somehow correct upto a certain point.
But my friend what if the OP needs some serious cash now? Then yes he is bound to sell the coin.
I am unhappy to see the current price of BTC as it was capable of something else.

Op can do one thing, you can lend some amount and pay it afterwards in the future if you need some hard cash right now(i am saying not to sell the BTC now)
Else if you financially stable now, then wait for some months and you will be happy to be rich.

I agree, because bitcoin is now on their process to be back on it's normal market price. I also suggest to hold your bitcoins before you regret and losses such a big chances. Don't panic if the market price went down instead learn to wait and always be updated for you to know when to hold your bitcoins and when you will going to sell it in the right time and in a right moment. Just chill, don't stress yourself because if you do then you will give yourself the reason to feel uneasy and disappointed when the right time will come.

I have read an article explaining this topic quite nicely. Here is the link (https://blog.cleo.one/does-trading-beat-hodl-the-most-popular-crypto-trading-indicators-during-a-bull-run-tested/) if you would like to read.

actually bitcoin could make us rich as long as we enter on correct time. for beginer investors whom already invest their money into bitcoin or altcoin maybe its be their unlucky story. bitcoin price unfortunately drop alot due some reason. but if we enter in 2020 before halving moment , maybe we will be rich now. remeber the bitcoin price history on every halving, it could be our guide to buy bitcoin or altcoin.

Bitcoin is in strong support now and there is a bounce at $35k, of course you have to buy it,
because I heard whispers that from now on Bitcoin price will go to a new all time high, maybe $70k in Q3 or Q4,
so do accumulation when bitcoin dump, and sell when the price goes up

It totally depends on the amount and timing of the money you have invested. If your investment is for a short period of time, then it would be a good decision to analyze the market situation and sell it at the right time. However, if you have invested huge money in bitcoin, you can withdraw some of your invested money by selling it and leaving the other for holding. Because the popularity of Bitcoin is increasing day by day and its value will increase more in the future. Bitcoin has arrived at the present time through market fluctuations and it is going to be noticed at the present time. So looking at the current Bitcoin market situation, if you think you can sell or hold it, it seems better to hold it.

Finding support is not as important as long-term investing in Bitcoin. However, if an investor wants to take advantage of the market and buy Bitcoin at a lower price, he can wait longer, if he can analyze the market properly, then he can understand the movement of the market. Big investors are now buying bitcoin and increasing their holdings.
Microstrategy they are buying Bitcoin regularly because they are thinking long term. So those who think long term can now buy bitcoin

Too much confiding and whispering into the new age of bitcoin but the drama of this story is similar to the extra time of football, the final score of the match can also be replaced by mysterious factors that we do not realize, the experts can only analyze each round, they predict the possibilities but they also believe that there are many surprises. We are playing the role of a coach and these whispers are just small angles, we need to change the strategy from round to round, unable to listen to an audience's prompts

Its totally depends on you and your ability. If you are able to afford you losses in long time then you can hold it because crypto market never die so today or tomorrow you will get back more that you can't be expected.

I understand your feelings, I can only say, you must keep hold of your Bitcoin. in the last 24 hours the price of BTC has fallen by a few percent, you will lose if you sell now.

hold yourself, maybe in Q4 this year Bitcoin will be bullish again, that's your chance to sell.

People are investing not because they will be proud of having Bitcoin in their hands, they are here for one reason, and that is to make money from their investment. It is a psychological instinct when it comes to investment and we keep this mindset forever. Those who sell their Bitcoin when seeing the market crash and those who are in a panic. Holders will take risks more than these people and they were able to wait when the market rallies back.

The fact of selling at a lower price is a mistake that is always made due to the panic generated by bad news, seeing that the price of BTC falls and others sell is what the whales are always looking for. This type of strategy has been on Wall Street since the 1800s, and they apply it to BTC.

There is something that everyone should know, $ 60k will not be the last ATH to reach, according to the S2F model it can go up to $ 100k, they even talk a lot up to $ 288k, when? It is not known, but if there is certainty that it will be given, with all this information it is enough to make Hodl to BTC. BTC has had a very good recovery, I think that at any moment it can go back to the $ 50k levels, when touching these values it is almost certain that the bulls will do their best to reach $ 60k, and from there it is likely that it can return to your ATH with the option to overcome it.

Holding on for the long term is not an easy thing I guess,
we really have to have patience but indeed by holding it in the long term it gives profit,
but again it all depends on each person's decision

It's up to your decision if you are going to sell or hold your bitcoin. The market now is down which is good to buy more and not to sell. Whales are always waiting for weak hands to sell, so if you are going to sell now, whales will buy your bitcoins. If you believe in bitcoin , I'm sure you will choose to hold rather than selling at a red market.

Yes, I agree. Bitcoin this time is undergoing it's process to increase their market price and also a brief correction on it. But, if you are already satisfied on your profit or if you already achieved the amount you wanted then, its up to you if you will sell or hold your bitcoin. The market price of bitcoin right now is too low for you to sell it. I suggest that you need to wait and be patient until the market price already increased. If you believe and trust bitcoin, I'm sure you will choose to hold rather than sell it in a lowest market price.

Never sell Bitcoin for loss because you will regret later. Bitcoin is good asset for long term investment, Bitcoin is digital gold and the market cap has potential as big as Gold. If you interesting to buy others instrument of assets is better doing diversification investment. Diversification is important to gain profit more consistently because the trend of bullish for each assets in different time. Sell Bitcoin for buy stocks is will not guarantee to recover loss.

That's right, especially considering the current market conditions, it's certainly not the right time to sell.
bitcoin for me is like a long term asset and every year at least its value always increases,
so it's better to hold on to it but again it all depends on each person's decision

There are times that we need to sell when the price goes down but we should nee to realize that if we sell it, we must guess that the price needs to dump more. This is to bring back the money that we lose in recent dump. The action before the dump is very important we must know when the price will go down or up. If our purpose is for long-term investment then selling is not the best option for it. More people engaging and panicking about the price of bitcoin might not come back again. Likely, it will back but I think in situation like this, I don't think it will get back to all-time high, unless a great big news that will shock the world to cryptocurrency will occur and rich people will jump in immediately.

It really depends on you. After all, it's your BTC, so it's also your decision whether to sell or hold. The market is very unpredictable these days, so we don't know when exactly will Bitcoin go up or down. It can be bullish or bearish without warning, so it's really important that you should acknowledge and manage your risks.

My recommendation is hold bitcoins and don't sell at low costs since in such a case that you sell at low costs you will just get misfortunes and disillusionment. On the off chance that the cost will be low that time purchases and hold the bitcoin. Then at that point sit tight at the cost increment that time you sell or trade any coins. So check the market cost regular.

Look at the price growth the whole year. And how much is your entry prices ? As long as it is below $20k you are good to hodl it untill next halving. I bet this cycle if we are going down or entering bearish market. We will never see below $10k again just like 2016-2017 when we can reach $18k then we enter bearish year as low as $3k not even touch $2k anymore.

I would certainly recommend to hold bease current market situation is very Bearish and more than 55% down from its ATH price. It will definately go Bullish as it happened in the past many many times. Bitcoin always breaks its ATH record after having passed through huge correction process.

That sort of spirit and enthusiasm is what most BTC believers have. It seems that holding might be the better approach rather than selling now for little profit. BTC is emerging as a currency as the digital version of gold and this is relatively a new concept that many people start realising, so in wake of this new wave of believers it might be good to HODL for now.

Just do not sell it and we're already facing that it's one of the best assets in the entire human kind. From its inception, bitcoin had already given us some great gains through its ATHs, and as well as those times that we have bought it on its dip.
The prices have fallen from the last ATH yet it had left us another good price and many of the holders are still in the profit. If somebody had bought it during the dip which was $29k and then held it for a while, he's already in profit. Just hold it short or long term.

for long term investment purpose holding bitcoin in a must for me . I am just looking bitcoin price every 4years after halving , and it make me more confidence to hold it . Personally i am passed the last bearish trend that happen in 2017 2018, so current trend doesnt make me worry at all.  But remember, accumulating will be good stratety at this moment, buy on low and sell it when rise will make our coins amount increase.

True. This is highly precious Digital asset and worth holding for long and long time. Imagine when all 21 Million Bitcoin would have been mined and no more Bitcoin will be supplied by Miner for sale in the Market , then where its Price will go. Correction is a temporary phase and it will be over soon and massive breakout is expected that can take it to new ATH.

I agree that what happened in 2017/2018 has provided valuable lessons for all of us, that there is no need to worry about the falling Bitcoin price.
Because our patience will be tested, who is able to be patient with the current conditions, then the person will enjoy the results in the future.
So the best decision is that we have to collect Bitcoin from now on, don't sell Bitcoin if it's not for an urgent need.

Have you ever thought that when investing to buy BTC, your first thought is to make a profit, right? . I will ask questions for you to ask yourself and you will decide to sell or not to sell.
. What is your purpose of buying BTC?
. Need money for urgent expenses right now?
. Do you intend to invest BTC long term or not?
In this market, if you are not calm enough and have a cool head, you will never be a winner. Please believe and wait patiently, good things will come to you.
As for you want to sell BTC to invest in promising new stocks, I just give your opinion and the rest is up to you to decide. If I were you, I would sell 1/3 BTC or 1/4 something to invest in a small amount, divide assets to invest because if BTC goes to $ 100k at the end of the year, you will really regret it. or if that new stock goes up in price you will regret it again, i think this is my own solution.

Yes, I agree, selling your cryptocurrency at this time is very wrong. When you take risk on selling it at a low prices then you might regret the high market price soon. The prices have fallen and might some cryptocurrency had help us gain good profit and always left us good prices even this time. Holding it is a right choice for now but its up to you if you sell it, yes you can gain a profit but in a very low prices. I suggest holding it for a long term because it surely give you a great profit that you won't expected. Learn to wait, be updated and always do research.

patience is being test from those who really understand how the cycle works from this industry, the market still down from the last time
high but likewise, it will bounce and bring very decent amount of benefits for those who are willing to wait and patiently wait for their money.

Invest when you have that skills and knowledge with particular asset that you place your money, trust and enjoy the fruit of your hard work

when the market start to move according to your target.

Just don't sell when you're at loss and if you think that there's more to go for bitcoin, no worries but hold it. Many people are worried about such drops and that's making them lose more profit because they're ticking their emotions and makes them lose a lot from what they've understood from the market. But that understanding is giving them the wrong decisions because they still lack the experience that's needed by them to thrive on bitcoin's market. If you happen to be here for years, you'll understand that such drops are part of the growth that's about to come. HODL it if you're a firm believer of Bitcoin and it won't just end with its last ATH.

Yes, that's the most appropriate. at this point, we can say that you need to hold it until the bitcoin price reaches $100k. although we believe it, but we do not know when it will happen. personally, if i had bitcoins, and had no special needs, i would continue to hold them. maybe in the near future, the price could be even higher. however, we have different circumstances. So, adjust to what you need and think.

Many people lose patience with the current market conditions that have not yet recovered. Therefore, as you said, in the end only people who
understand how the crypto market works can be patient. I've made a number of profits from investing in Bitcoin, so I think it would be foolish
to sell Bitcoin in the current situation. Because I am optimistic that Bitcoin will be able to go up again, so I just need to be patient holding
the Bitcoin I have,  to be able to feel the profit from Bitcoin.

CZ's sentence is very clear "you will not get rich if you cant hodl"
the market is sideways and maybe this will last for the next few months

if you sell now then you will not feel the opportunity to profit in the next bullish
hodl your crypto until you really feel a big profit, don't be easy to sell and then run away

I don’t think you need to worry at all. For now, it must be a long-term holding of Bitcoin. Don't sell at a loss. You must stand the test. It reserves generous rewards for those who are prepared and truly trust Bitcoin. What was the purpose of OP buying Bitcoin at the time? Certainly not the idea of selling at a loss. If you want to support that new stock, you can reduce your investment and try, but I think it is unwise to sell Bitcoin at a loss.

Any investment has a certain risk. I have seen many people regret selling bitcoin during a sharp decline, and then wait for the next big rise, and then buy it back. They will always be affected by market sentiment, since If you choose to invest in Bitcoin, you should believe that holding it for a long time will bring you huge wealth, rather than dumping your Bitcoin because of FUD.

If you don't wait for a long term and you think that there are another coins which can give you a lot of profit as compared to bitcoin in short period then you can sell it  but if you can wait for a long time and you need a huge profit then should wait and be calm.

If you think that the price of Bitcoin will get lower and lower in the future, and if you sell it now, your profit is not a loss, you can sell your Bitcoin, but I suggest you keep your Bitcoin first. Because the price of Bitcoin will definitely rise, you must be patient. You can wait until the price is high before you sell your Bitcoin.Sell or keep holding, it all depends on you.

Do you understand that new stock?
If you have enough funds, you can invest in that new stock and continue to hold Bitcoin.
If you don't have the funds, and you think that new stock can bring you profits, then you can sell your bitcoins.

Bitcoin is more suitable for long-term holding. Don't be affected by price fluctuations, hold Bitcoin for a long time, and then sell it when you make a profit. The total amount of Bitcoin is fixed, and now the consensus on Bitcoin is strengthened, and people's demand for Bitcoin is also increasing. Bitcoin is still in a bullish trend, so it is very likely that the price of Bitcoin will continue to rise.

For me bitcoin is a long term asset and if you look at the graphs of bitcoin at least every year they go up,
bitcoin is very good for long term investment and indeed to hold it requires patience,
related to selling or continuing to hold it all depends on each person's strategy and decision

bitcoin will go up at any given time, but we can't be sure it will rise every year. For example, in 2019 there is a decrease from 2017. The best thing in my opinion is that we must know the right time to buy and sell it. if we know to buy when the price is $4k and in 2021 we sell it at $60k, then that's where we can maximize profits. and we can buy again at the current price and wait for the bullrun to come back

for now I think it's better to keep it. unless you sell it when the price peaked yesterday, maybe we will get the maximum profit, and now is the right time to buy back. but if we didn't take profit yesterday and still hold it today, then the best option is to hold it until the bullish trend occurs

That depends I mean what if OP suddenly needs a money for an emergency and the prices are down real bad, would hodling still be the best option? I think that it still depends on what they are going to do and what situation they are in and if OP has extra money to spend on emergency then hodling is the best option.

The short-term price of Bitcoin fluctuates too much, and it is easily influenced by emotions to chase up and down. Bitcoin is suitable for long-term holding and can increase its value to protect against risks.
For most people, it is possible to invest in Bitcoin several times in a small amount according to market conditions to diversify the risks caused by currency price fluctuations and avoid selling at low prices.

If you don't have your own investment philosophy and principles, no one can help you.
Your current problem is also something I have experienced. This feeling is very uncomfortable and I am very eager for others to help you make decisions. Investment will be risky, and good asset allocation will not have this anxiety.
Bitcoin is undoubtedly the most correct choice that needs to be maintained for a long time.

If you really that money for a very valid reason you should go for it dude.
Who knows that you need it for emergency purpose, but if not. And you think that you can still
find a way to resolve the problem I think better to hold it still. Hope you get what I'm trying
to emphasize here.

bullish trend will definitely happen again so hold is the wisest choice right now. I'm sure there are many who sell their Bitcoins when the price hits the lowest price in the last 2 months. if you are not a trader, selling too often is bad behavior, just be a holder in the sideway market.

At this time when there is so much uncertainty, I do not recommend selling BTC at all, the last movements have been oscillating by lops $ 32k to $ 34k, although it quickly tested the levels of $ 34k this means that the BTC bulls are about to eliminate the offer in Those price levels, if they achieve it we can see a safe growth up to $ 40k, I think that the plan of the bulls is to bring BTC to the levels of $ 60k without any type of risk, that is, if it rises to $ 60k no make it easy for the bears to lower it to $ 30k or less, this will take some time, because investor movements usually take a considerable time.

It all depends on your plans for your bitcoins. If you believe in bitcoin and believe that its price will continue to rise in the future, then I see no reason for you to sell it now.
Are you a trader? If not, then there is no need to worry even if the price of bitcoin drops in the next few years, it is important whether you believe in the global growth of bitcoin in the future.

Don't have to hesitate, try to convince yourself and be more confident in holding on, because everything is not over yet, opportunities are wide open, it's just that you have to have a sense of patience with strong optimism. Try to get rid of worries, make the investment not just one or 2 weeks, make it a long term that doesn't need to think about the short term and be affected by the declines price movements in the near term.

No need to sell if the actual plan is to hold for a long time.

Where are the moon boys at? aren't we forgetting those lambos and moons? I haven't seen them lately and it's already probably forgotten that it's the actual reason why we're holding bitcoin.

Sell if you have a reason to sell but if not, don't sell.

Yes that’s what the OP needs to understand.
I have already said and still claiming if you can manage your expenses then don’t sell.
But yes if the OP is in some sort of emergency and need immediate funds and no option to sell, then just sell it.
Else if you can risk a bit more, you can lend some money by keeping those coins as collateral which can be used later on.
But at last the decision always depends on the OP.
Hope OP we community helped you a bit.

You can choose whether to continue to hold Bitcoin according to your needs.
If you need money urgently, you can sell a small amount of Bitcoin first when the price is right. If you have enough funds, you can continue to hold Bitcoin. Don't be afraid of falling Bitcoin prices, this is a normal fluctuation of market conditions. With the increase in recognition and demand for Bitcoin, long-term holding of Bitcoin will result in a certain profit.

In the bright side of  perceptions Bitcoin still have lots of room to grow.

The value this year jumped high to its new ATH and then fall back giving opportunities to those newcomers who also wanted to invest around. Keep your money where your knowledge is residing, knowing the types of your investment and make sure to continue following the development.

It depends on you until when you can hold your coins some people will say hold your bitcoin until another all-time high some says sell your bitcoin because it's already on the top and if you want to get a profit to sell it immediately. Holding bitcoin gives you different emotions and thoughts if you want to sell or not. As long as your mental and physical can handle the different instances that will come on the market. No matter what they say at the end of the day the decision is yours if you want to sell or not.

At this time it seems you can say the price of bitcoin is experiencing a correction,
so indeed we can see currently the price of bitcoin is falling and the price of other coins is the same,
With this I don't think there's a better choice than to hold on

Only you can decide if it is worth holding. No one here knows the future. Believers will tell you to hold. Unbelievers will tell you otherwise.
Research about the project and its development team. Assess the potencial of their technology.
Get as much information as you can and make your own decision.

True. The Bitcoin is range bound and has passed through massive correction since many weeks and no one knows how long it will continue before it bounces back. Having said, I would still suggest to hold it because it is precious digital asset and it will certainly come out of this bearish cycle and make new ATH. It happened many times in the past and will continue happening in future, as well

i know there is a term when a person get attracted to new things  and that is what your feeling right now  but later on you will regret and say that you shouldnt sell your btc to buy it.
 that was new and its reputation is nothing when compare to btc  .
you read  different sources of btc and you still dont know what to do?  how come when all of them supposed to suggest you to hodl in tough times.

Keep holding your BTC. BTC will surge higher again soon.
Watch the video below and learn how to trade the dip. This video will be helpful.
https://youtu.be/_Y9qnsV3Mms

I think if one is going to sell it's prudent to do so when the price is at a peak, not like it is now - at a bottom.

This is the general rule that it is easier said than done.

Like in stocks, there are certain indicators that will help you arrive at a decision whether to sell/purchase more BTCs in the process. But before you arrive at a decision, always be definite. Only purchase BTCs that you are willing to lose in the process. You can also sell 60% of your BTCs the moment you arrive at profit and keep the remaining 40% for long-term investment.

bitcoin and cryptocurrency future still look soo brigth now , alot finance institution allow their customer investing in crypto market. Huge money will come from this institution and drive most cryptocurrency. Bitcoin price year by year still show the strengthness even alot fud suffer. Actually we miss huge opportunity if selling our crypto assets today.

Bitcoin holding and selling depends on completely market situations. If you think market fully hyped and your investment already given you benifits then you should sell Bitcoin and otherwise you should hold bitcoin longer periods.

When? There is no certain time for the next pump. No one knows the BTC price will increase again or never increase again this year.
Keep holding is a good strategy, but selling is also not a bad decision. I am not holding all my Bitcoin, I keep selling a small number sometimes. It makes me get USDT to buy altcoins in a cheap price right now.

there's really no such thing as a bullrun imminent. but I'm sure one day it will happen again. therefore I personally keep the bitcoins I have, as long as I don't have an urgent need. On the other hand, to maximize profits, we can give some potential altcoins, and I did that from the results of this bounty.

- Yes, quite a lot of people like to convince others, talk about the coming bitcoin pump and the opportunity as we maintain our holdings while they don't have an exact scale or timeline, it's similar to ways of advertising a product without any knowledge of it, only exaggerating results and feasibility but after completing such responsibilities, a warranty card for customers almost does not appear. Convince others that it is necessary to submit detailed plans down to the numbers, it is impossible to talk about theory and feasibility

But it also depends on the situation.

If the person witnessed the peak and didn't sold and now that he's about to sell, there might be an important reason why he's about to do that. Even if the price became lower but if he's still in profit as he sell, that's what matters.

That's right, we don't know when the exact highest price will be. if you look at the price of bitcoin now it will be very high when compared to the price of bitcoin last year. but if you compare it to last month, of course the price at that time can't be said to be a high price.
it all depends on the price when you buy bitcoin, if the price is high and you have made a profit of course there is no problem if you want to sell it. but if you want to hold it longer, of course there will be possibilities for the future, the price could be higher or just the opposite.

With the current conditions the crypto market is going down it's much better to hold on to it,
this is the right time to do that and if we sell it right now it will most likely be a loss,
So stay patient, wait for the market to rise again and wait for the right time to sell

Basing on technicals then its really somewhat a bad idea to sell now since the support is on 30k and we are nearly there and instead of selling then better to look for buying opportunity

but of course we dont know if there would be some breakouts to happen which it would really be ending up for you to leave on the negative side but well, we dont know on what would happen
next if we wont try.

Its up to you still on what would you gonna do into your coins in the end of the day.

If you bought it with money you could afford to lose, then simply hodl. If you bought your coins with money that's needful to you and either you've got an emergency or it is a very hefty amount and you're in less loss, then you may sell it. There are many analysts saying BTC to be reaching a new ATH of over $100k this year itself, but I believe they're only selling nonsense and I don't think there's any such chance because institutions won't let retailers play it like that and the interest has also turned into fear here, so I believe there can be some more downturn here for BTC.

It doesn't look like it's going to happen anytime soon. I have a relatively small amount of BTC, since I invested most into yield mining, however, I don't see much point in selling any BTC now, unless you're a daily trader. I'll keep on holding, hoping that in a couple of months, the price surges to high levels and increases in value.

It's possibly a decent time to step back and observe the market, there might be other opportunities that might have gone unnoticed.

Yes. It's higher compared to last year.

So if you've bought last year and missed the ATH but you want to sell, you have to consider that you're still in profit.

But if you don't like that then there's nothing we can do from your situation.

Surely, someday it is possible to have an urgent need. That's why I am selling a small number of my BTC to have USDT. I am afraid once I have an urgent need, the price of BTC is already cheaper than the current price. What I am doing is a preventive action, I think it is a good thing. So, I am not panic once I need fresh money in the future.

I don't want to rely on bounty payments. There are too many bounties without any result, even no cents as the payment.
The bounty payment is just a bonus, cannot hope much on bounty payments.

Thanks for your appreciation. Sure, it is exceptional, the signature campaign paid BTC is always special. It is very difficult to be accepted there. What I explained before is about the bounty paid in altcoins, commonly in new altcoins. You should know if many bounties paid in new altcoins were scams or the teams of the projects disappeared after the bounties ended. These bounties cannot be expected much, better to focus on trading or investment.

I think this decision to sell or hold on bitcoin is a personal matter but if we talk about bitcoin then it can be said that if you invest in bitcoin now for a long time then the chances of loss are much less. I think that investing in Bitcoin is definitely profitable but sell or hold is done through a long process.

At this time I would advise OP not to sell its BTC, many analyzes indicate that BTC can even go down to $ 24k, but this is not a reason to worry, if we take into account that if it is likely to fall to those levels, many They will buy in the dip, weak hands would be greatly eliminated and a new market would be forming with those traders and investors who want to take the BTC to $100k and from there to $ 288k, which, guided by S2F, is very likely to happen, everything is in the odds, but I don't recommend that you sell.

I think this decision on selling or holding bitcoin is a personal matter but if we talk on investing in bitcoin for a long time then the chances of lossing profit is much less. I suggest when you hold your bitcoin and the price of it is already enough for you then I guess it was the right time to sell it but, if the price is not yet enough for you or else if the price is not increasing even a small percentage then hold it and wait. It's better to focus and have proper knowledge about it to not loss a huge amount of it.

Exactly, decision like this is for the person itself and there's should be no influenced from anyone. If happened that you are already good with the percentage of your earnings, either to pull out your intial investment or to takeall then enjoy your profits.

It's a matter of how you design and plan your investment, if you have certain target and its been achieved then it's good for you to take it.

Sometimes greed comes out and dictate the wrong things to do, never listen and make sure to follow what the original plan that you've got.

It is a personal matter but OP disclosed the information and asked for our opinion so I think that it's going to be a good thing that we advice OP with something useful. I hope that OP hasn't sold when the prices was low because it reached 60k and hodling for too long could make him/her wait a bit more longer.

It seems this thread is over flog with response that has been said over time of which I strongly believe OP must have taken an informed decision by now on whether to keep holding or sell. Please us keep repeating what has been said over time and I were OP is high time to close this thread.

Buying and selling always depend on your limit you have to set a limit if you do investing. Because crypto market is always moving up and down and setting a limit  to avoid big loss is helpful. I will suggest that just hold on your investment because you will not loss if you will not sell it in loss. If you don't want to get bored on waiting for the Bitcoin price to rise just invest in some good altcoins because Bitcoin is for long term investment.

Definitely, it all depends on your limit and if you feel like now is enough profit which you long for, you could sell it or you could continue possessing it.

The long term is the most rewarding strategy in holding bitcoin.

But you're right that if someone who holds it sees already the profit on it right now, then he's free to sell. To me, I'm not yet selling and I'll wait for the right time which I'll be satisfied of selling it.

There's no pressure, there's no rush.

 You should have Hodl,, And learn other market strategies, the more you learn the easier it gets for you.... I just don't like seeing or hearing people sold out due to fear or what so ever.... Crypto is a gradual process it all requires patience. Patience is a virtue of Success...  Money is everywhere in most expecially on the bullish right now is just for us to get a good strategies to make passive profit within a period of short or long term all depends on how we choose it... F.U.D is a killer in the Business

It really depends on your own instincts. If you feel that you wanna hold or sell it, no one is going to stop or interfere with you. No matter what advice you will get, it’s always you who will be making the decision whether to sell or hold your Bitcoins.

Simply put, problem solving is a version of personal and private but this intentional question of theirs is just to bolster their little beliefs because I know society is hiding a lot of people with some question and choice troubles, sometimes it's their pickiness or it's also a congenital disease, their childhood environment is always chosen by their family and they do not have independence, which makes them mentally flawed and self-confident. After all the opinions and what has been written, you and many others have probably helped them define their point of view and confidence.

But don't rely too much on instincts, remember that you have to do analysis too and that you should be doing what's obvious when it becomes obvious. Nothing wrong taking advice, OP asked for it so might as well consider those but still think for yourself and have common sense.

if you confidence with your decison  ,it should not worry about whatever market condition. if  we have been passed several cycle in bitcoin price , we  know what we have to do at this year. Current all time high price was not the peak for this year, we still have possibility to create new ATH again. SO if we believe it will happen , holding cryptocurrency for several months again could give us huge profits.

Bitcoin trading will depend entirely on what price you set while holding your bitcoin. If you find that your bitcoin makes a lot more profit, then you have your bitcoin according to your needs If your bitcoin is not giving you profit then you can hold for a long time.

many say hold bitcoin rather than sell it. I think this depends on the original purpose of our transaction. are we going to trade short term or trade long term. if we trade short term, of course selling it is the right choice. but if we invest in coins, then holding it is the right choice in my opinion. therefore we must focus on the initial goal. don't let it happen, at first we want to invest long term, but as soon as we see floating profit, then our minds change and sell it, and in the end regret it, if bitcoin reaches a new ath

Hold until you can.

That's what those people that are experiencing doubts with bitcoin lately. Just as what you seeing right now, bitcoin reached $42k.

But it might dip again although it had already dipped on $40k yet, price that it shows lately has been so good and favorable to holders.

if we still take urgent needs from our investment it mean we didn't use free money . i am just worry if someday market crash and our invesment value decrease alot and we have urgents need , what we will do to face it . Sellit with huge loss or something else ?

hold for long term was good option for bitcoin holder,wait till next halving cycle and we will see how much its price later.

Yes.

That's a choice for most to hold until the next halving. You don't have to sell if you don't have anything to spend with it.

But if you have to sell, the price today is also good but as said, hold until you can.

It's all based on personal decisions tho, if you know you don't need money so badly you can hodl your bitcoin for a long time and set a target once it hits you can them sell off but if you believe price will keep doing well you take out your capital and leave your profit to swing but if you aren't going for the long term and you are fine with the current price you are seeing then you can sell of and use the money to do what ever you want or better still keep the money to buy up when the market is down again.

I think if you still have enough money to meet all your needs, don't sell your coins at a loss. Hold on and just wait until it reaches the point you expect it to. Just be patient, you will definitely be picked up again. Moreover, what you invest is coins that are not fake. Which I think will have a good future.

Be smart. If you’re just out of the water, sell everything and wait for the next dump. Chances are you will avoid making the previous two mistakes, “buying at the wrong time” and “waiting for the market to get back up”

If you are so sure that the promising stock can give you nice profit and it can recover your loses if you sell your bitcoin, you can go for it. You need to calculate it wisely, how much you may earn from the new stock and how much you will lose if you sell your bitcoin. If I was on your position and I'm sure that I will make nice profit from the new stock then I will sell half of my bitcoin and spend it on the new stock.

As a trader, I have had to contend with different analysis and projections about bitcoin. Sometimes, the chart look bleak for me, but one thing about bitcoin is that, it is beyond numbers and graph, it is revolution and it is the future of money! So you need to first believe in what bitcoin is capable of becoming and you will not need to worry about present value!

in the event that you keep your crypto for longer than a year, at that point you pay less in charges after you offer it, since it'll be considered a long-term capital pick up. ... Let's accept you purchase a crypto since you accept in its esteem. In case you're right, you'll likely make more cash by holding on to it compared to offering it as well before long. So, Its upto you.

Hold hem off man. Bitcoin is seriously growing up. Decide if you wish to go for long term or short term hold. Thats up to you. But keep watching the market's growth and its moment.  Hold and sell them at the right moment. This will really help you to get revenue at the right time. Unless and until you are committed to something from the return, pl don go for it, Have patience. Its the key to success.

If you sell now you'll miss any more gains. If you're up big I guess you can sell some profit and put into Stables like tether or busd. Buy back into bitcoin when it dips decently

don't sell coins if you feel you are losing, it's better to hold it for a while until the coin stabilizes and even goes up. even if the increase is not much and you feel that you have made a little profit, there is nothing wrong with selling the coin instead of having to sell it at a low price below your purchase price. monitor developments as often as possible so that you don't fall behind on market trends. so be more careful and patient because that is the main key when you trade.

Agreed, if there's no immediate need to sell then hold your BTC like you do to your dear life. Many are expecting great returns from BTC, and with institutions taking a like to crypto I think the potential for future return from crypto is looking green

Hold BTC if you don't need too much money this is a good opportunity for the holders BTC prices are rising despite falling below 40K last week, BTC has again crossed $ 42k right now, there is a better chance of holding than selling BTC because the market is recovering and the number of holders in the crypto market is increasing with the price increase. Hold on as long as you can without selling.

I have to agree right here. Bitcoin is now just pulling away from all the FUD. China news should have totally broken it but now at $45k and growing, BTC seems to be on a mission to make up all the lost ground in May to July.

I normally do not say hodl for no reason but this is at least a new ATH move.

I think you should hold it because from the present conditions it can be seen that bitcoin will regain its position. And as well as it the best ever coin we are seeing from the first time. Then due to these conclusions, you should hold it for a long time. I hope it will give you much profit in the future.

I think you should hold it because it goes and up its better for you . In the short term it is very volatile and you could easily lose most of the money you put into it. So dont panic and be patience. If you keep longer than a year then you pay less tax when you sell it.

Bitcoin is at $40k+ and we still expect more significant move that will pick the price about $50k+ as time goes on. Although bthe market is not certain now that things are going somehow in the direction we never expected price to pull in. You can choose to sell your bitcoin to purchase other coins that can give quite a lots of profits within a range of time. The market is really showing a positive sign that indicate holding your coins for a while cause is like the bullish trend is about to start.

Yes you should hold until 2023 for longterm.there is possibility as there is a similar fractal showing that. For short term  it could do a small correction and blast through 64k as well...

for long term purpose bitcoin could hold till next halving cycle, maybe at that moment bitcoin price could hit more $200k as many predicted by expert. halving events really give huge impact to market and if we could use it in our trading style to generate profits.


look at the big picture of bitcoin future and we will see how wonderfull its value for long term. to maximize our return in crypto market , maybe long term could be our choice.

Hold your bitcoin for longer it's make possibility to increase the value of Price. Selling bitcoin is not the good idea. Dont panic be patience if any doubts asked experience people.

Always trade with a goal. If you have a target (comfortable retirement, assets, etc.) pull profits when your needs are met. If you don’t have a particular goal maybe don’t pull yet. Its easy.

Go deeper and add up your knowledge in terms of this investment. There are always possibilities that the value will bounce back.
Panicking is not a good solution, it just leads you to lose your investment and your opportunities to earn.


Always have your goal set . Stay with it and calm yourself while waiting, there's no good outcome to those who
are panicking a lot, if you feel fear inside you just go back to the basic, you are inside this business because you are investing
for your benefits, selling when you are still at loss is not a good practice try to be more patience.

It is the reason why many of us are holding, the future price of it will increase and that's more likely than to invest in altcoins that you think will increase and make you recover your losses.

It is a good idea if you're at the right time but if you are not then you are doing it wrong. The reason why many bitcoin holders are raking in profits because they're patient.

There are many voices in the Cryptocurrency community and listening to them will be confusing!  Bitcoin is regarded as the safe Cryptocurrency compare to other coin.  You must believe in bitcoin and it's ability to change the world finance now and in the future! Bitcoin is dynamic and you can see the price have increased already!

It all depends how much bitcoin you have. If you are having more Bitcoins to invest you could keep it and sell it later.

I know you probably must have gotten your answers by now. You dumping bitcoin and buying that stock simply means you're planning on a long term investment, why not just stick with your Bitcoin and hodl till your dreams get filled up. However, you can whatever stock you seem interested in but don't try dumping bitcoin for any!

If you don’t need money right now then you can hold your buying bitcoin. Nowadays bitcoin price increase day by day.Now bitcoin price around $50k+, 1th month ago it was under $40k+.I Think this year bitcoin price break the all record,. And i Think bitcoin price will be reached $70k+ this year.I hope you can get more profit from bitcoin holding.

On the contrary to what mindset of newbies in Cryptocurrency market, thinking bitcoin is a get rich quick asset, I can tell you that bitcoin is a long term investment as well!  I have held bitcoin for more than eight years and my stock market background had helped me to hold! Therefore, to maximize the opportunity bitcoin provides,  you must see bitcoin in the prixm of long term holding!

Bitcoin just came $51,600.

And that's why if you don't need money, just hold it. There will be times that you have to sell for your needs and that's why you only do it if there is a need for you to do so.

Speculations are even telling of $100k eoy.

Selling isnt always a bad thing specially if the profits you do make will be used on something more important or lets just say that those are just priorities and also you can buyback whenever you do like
specially if the price had dipped a significant percentage then you can always get in and go held again for long term.

This is what im doing on where i dont really hesitate when it comes to this because im not really minding about money all the time since there are things which cant be bought by money.

Dont compromise something important if you do know that you do still have money to spent.

Bitcoin is currently undergoing a consolidation phase, the $51K resistance area has been breached. The next price is in the $55k area, so if you say today will go down, I think Bitcoin is trying to go up. Hold Bitcoin is an option but sometimes what I do is multiply bitcoins through trading. My target from the start was that. That's because I believe bitcoin will hit another high. But if you will hold it doesn't matter if your funds are really free funds.

True.

If you sell for no reason then you did sold for nothing and that's a bad decision. But if you sold and you have a good reason and you need that profit for something more significant.

You just did the right thing because you can always buy back.

As you had seen last night about bitcoin that it falls too badly from 50K to 43K which i didn't know how? But it had given many people too much losses, because the crypto trading is volatile and in this market everything can happen, So, if you are a top trader and have the ability to hold, then only you can hold.

"But in the future the bitcoin crypto market may increase"-- may increase. That means you are not sure about this. The price of Bitcoin may go down in the future.  The price of bitcoin is high enough now. So currently I am not inclined to hold Bitcoin. Because once the price of Bitcoin falls, no one knows how long we will have to wait to recover our loss.

I believe that bitcoin will continue to rise even though there will be several phases of decline. That's what needs to be used. So I did it with two techniques for bitcoin trading. I divide it into several and allocate it to hold and trade on a daily, or weekly basis and even scalping. The reason I still believe that Bitcoin is going to high again. Apart from that I also keep doubling my Bitcoin amount by trading. I also keep some fiat for Backup purposes or other unexpected funds. But this is my technique, you can adapt to your abilities and the one that suits you best.

Selling bitcoin isn't a good option  in my honest opinion, because  the price of bitcoin always goes up after every fall, just check out bitcoin chart since it was created you will find out that it always goes up even if it dumps -90% in price, that alone should tell you to hold cause bitcoin will likely hit 100k in the long run maybe not this year but it will surely reach that price in the future, keep hodling you will reap the reward soon.

It is your choice but i will advise you to hold your bitcoin for long term t for you to achieve something great from it. Since bitcoin price is not too stable enough to sell than to hold and watch when the price of bitcoin hit $60k soon. With the signs the market is developing right now, show that those who will endure will definitely smile.
Bitcoin price is still $43 to $45 which there is still hope that it will definitely increase to $64 before the end of the month.

But your honesty is just a stranger's honesty, we don't have projectors that can transcend time and space to peek at what will be revealed, no matter what the future of bitcoin is or steadily increasing after every drop and even if your honesty comes from the most sincere, he should not delegate trust in such a way. A stranger can be neutral, but they can also be cruel to all as well as their ideas do not match with what is burning in his heart, neutrality easily contradicts the subject who is himself

It is actually a good option if you've bought from the ranges of $3k-$40k. As long as the current price puts you in profit, it's a good option.

But what we're thinking is going long term with bitcoin and this is the reason why many of us are holding it. Even if we're already in profit, we don't want to sell because a potential bigger profit might come in the next few years.

If we look at the history of BTC, as time passes, the price is always much higher, since its history is like this, I usually see it from the point of view of the Wyckoff theory that is subdivided in the Accumulation Stage and Distribution Stage, where from my own experience I have ascertained that every 3 or 4 years is that the accumulation stage occurs and usually goes to the bullish trend and from then on any ocsa can happen, if it continues to rise or enters into re-accumulation stage, but the behavior of BTC so far, I have seen it behave that way.

You can sell it only if your LIFE depends on it. Long term accumulating Bitcoin has made so many rich people.

if you keep moving your money around to different coins thinking you made the wrong pick you will keep losing. this is about patience. if you are planning on switching your coin of focus then add more money to do so

selling bitcoins can be done up to 20% of the profit if you have made a profit because this is to stabilize finances. if it stays in bitcoin too long I'm worried the money will stay in bitcoin. and if bitcoin goes up it will be profitable, but if it goes down it will be detrimental. and have to work hard to return the capital.

before deciding to invest in bitcoin, of course, we will know that the price of bitcoin in the market can go up and down, and that can happen for a long time. if you really want to hold it then believe that tomorrow you will benefit from holding it. Personally I will choose to hold my bitcoin for a period of time until waiting for the price to rise and match. if I sell it when the market is down then that is can guaranteed that I will get a big loss.

Depends on your target. If you are long-term investors, it's always brings you good results. Those who bought last 2017-18 and still holding their coins earned a lot. Even many said that $20K is the peak.

Everything inside here depends from how you deal your investment, daytraders or short-term scalpers might have the same mentality as you, but if you do want to maximize your generated profits, keeping your bitcoin and let this cycle to passed the market would be the best thing to do, bounce back will take place after this correction.

Yup your target is everything. If you had your target then sell, don't wait for more. Haste only makes waste. I bought BTC when it was around 10k$ and quit when it was around 30k$. I don't have any guilt of selling so early, since I had achieved my target.
We also dont know whats absolute height and dip, thats why its important to set target and do the needful when you see ur target.

No.

It's not $1M by the end of this year but it's $100k. Probably you've heard another prediction that's too much.

But it's $100k which is the price that's being predicted by many that shall happen this end of year.

You are right in fact I think it is very possible because PlanB's S2F model represents the best of the most accepted prediction models in the Crypto world, in fact here you can show how it describes it:

Plan B's Stock-to-Flow Bitcoin Price Model 'Predicts $100K by Christmas,' S2F Creator Discusses 'Time Model'
https://i.imgur.com/Mh5hKp3.png
Source: https://news.bitcoin.com/plan-bs-stock-to-flow-bitcoin-price-model-predicts-100k-by-christmas-s2f-creator-discusses-time-model/ (https://news.bitcoin.com/plan-bs-stock-to-flow-bitcoin-price-model-predicts-100k-by-christmas-s2f-creator-discusses-time-model/)

I think that this model, despite being very precise and having both fundamental and technical analysis focused on it, has an expiration date, so it represents that it will not become an indicator or tool.

Hold bitcoin,it will not go down. The reason why Bitcoin won’t go down is that Institutional investors with Billions of dollars are waiting for the dip. So whenever it dips, they start buying and take the price up again, only good part this time is that They are in this game for long term.

Still have fund? If you aren’t at hurry, then let your assest leave for some more months for make itself bigger cause bitcoin industry is looking great for take position $62.5, even its possible to hit another ath milestone but you need to be careful also. Cause some people are also thinking that, this is bull trap before dump the bitcoin industry. So dont be wonder if you see such kind of dump is happening. So focus on those news too untill you hold you assets.

We cant really deny about this manner that institutional investors are really already on this market for a while but still on observation mode and doesnt put up funds in full swing.We cant really able to tell because
everything do happen behind the curtains but what tells us or shows us is on the volume involved which we can really make out some presumption.
Sell or hold your coin? Its up on someones personal choice because we dont know if they do need money on point or just totally some hunch on selling out but if you are a hodler
then its up to you.

Make sure not to let emotion leading you while working inside this market, if you still have spare money allowing the market to cycle gives you a chance to maximize your profits, make sure that while considering the potential there's also chances that early sideways will take place, use money that you are willing to let go, it will allow you to hold much longer.

If you are not willing to take the risk, it's better to sell when you have profits. Taking a small amount of earning is still better than losing your money while you are in this business.

It should be selling your altcoins for bitcoin.

As long as you're too optimistic for bitcoin then there's no reason to sell it just to have the other altcoins. But if you're selling because you need it and there's an important cause.

It's a thing that's no need to be questioned.

I think there is still a chance for big gains for altcoins. Of course, I am in favor of buying Bitcoin, but I am also in favor of diversification. Despite the fact that I have great confidence in Bitcoin, it is much safer to invest in several places.

There is.

I'm not saying that there's no more chance to earn with altcoins. But in this case, it's better to have bitcoins than altcoins.

That has been proven and very effective at all because you're having the confidence that every bitcoin holder has.

It all depend on you but for me I will hold because I just bought my some months ago and I have not make profit to my satisfaction that is reason why I want to hold til Bitcoin reach $80k because I  have  much believe that it will pump more.
If you are financially okay for now I will advise you to keep patient and hold for short period of time again, but if you have make some profit and you have satisfy will it you can sell but this is right time to hold.

Bitcoin broke its previous ATH today. I think it will pump more and I think next stop is $1M. So we should hold bitcoin. Let's wait to see the new ATH record of bitcoin.

BTC will reach more this year crossing current ATH occured today. I am planning to invest as much as I can in the coming months. Like saving, will invest 50$ to$60 either every week into either on Bitcoin or any other crypto currencies. 

Or sell them off if you have bought the coin very cheap and you feel the current growth is sufficient enough in taking your profits.

Please hold your Bitcoin, it is digital gold , hedge against inflation , its price can go up beyond your thinking  and don't feel sad when Bitcoin price goes down. history has shown again and again that Bitcoin Price always goes up more after every decline in price. Correction in trading is a part of the game, it always happens when market is overbought and same thing happens when Market is oversold.

Now this thread is again alive because the price made a best movement making another ATH.

if you had Held your coins up to now?


https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin/

Then  you should be celebrating a more than 130% income lol.

from more than 20k now at 66k , Imagine hoe huge profit that is for just 10 months?

You are giving a very good advise. Hold bitcoin for next 10 years then see the results. If we see the history of bitcoin, before 10 years bitcoin price is in few cents but now 1 bitcoin price is near to 65000$. So, if you are a very early holder then you have earned huge money from bitcoin. So, hold bitcoin for the next 10 years. Analyst says that bitcoin price will cross 200,000$ in the next few years. So, hold it brother.

I know the thread was made in January, 2021 and the price was lower than today. Just compare the price between January to October is almost 100% increase which is really insane. So, if you are still struggling to choose between hold or sell then the answer is already there. You shouldn't sell your Bitcoin if you don't need that money urgently, let that Bitcoins sit there and keep adding up the Bitcoin because the potential still exists.

Not selling bitcoin if we do not need money urgently is good decision but we also need to be realistic with the situation. I'd prefer to sell some if the price is increased significantly even though I do not need that money urgently, I call this as taking profit while there is a chance.

Yeah, that's still a good explanation. The average people loses money on trades because they need the money immediately and cannot wait for the price to bounce back above the price at which they bought. I would also prefer to sell if the price goes up 2-3x times. Pull out your initial investment and then play with money you don't own. This is the best strategy!

It depends on your decision and capability to hold for long term. If you don't need to spend your bitcoin then you can hold it. But now bitcoin reached its ATH which is good to sell if you are already in profit. There is no need to become greedy because we don't know what will happen in bitcoins value tomorrow or in some other days.

As long as there is a profit then we should be able to take that opportunity unless you hold it for the long term, so what I am based on is when I have a profit of a few percent and this is enough for me then I will sell it no need to wait for a high time because normally it will be greed and make loss too.
Personal finance as well as investment money, I will always be distinguished and this should not be an urge someday because what is needed of course must be the result of profits, so I manage my finances as best I can so as not to interfere with investing in crypto.

Bitcoin price now up to $60k. You should hold btc coz btc will reach $100k soon. Keep holding hardly. if you have some money for run your daily life. Then don’t think about sell btc.

The result of every patience is always good and yield success. Bitcoin is the most trusted cryptocurrency token of all time, if all altcoins will be pumped and bitcoin dumped, I still have that trust in bitcoin because of its volatility. Holding Bitcoin always yield profit, so do not panic and sell keep holding your bitcoin and you will appreciate it letter.

The question was made before bitcoin reached $60k.

But it's what everyone is speculating about that we might see bitcoin goes $100k very soon. It could be by December or not but that's all predicted earlier.

We're not just sure if that prediction will happen anytime soon.

crazy prediction of bitcoin reaching ahga $100k is realistic, maybe the best target in the near future is $70k bitcoin. I think this is realistic and hold bitcoin or a larger collection so that it can be one of the quickest profit boosters

Depends on the strategy you are using, and your risk appetite.

a realistic target in my opinion, bitcoin will reach a price of $100k. but it would be unrealistic to do so in a relatively short time. Of course, there will be waves in bitcoin's movement, and there will be a correction after it reaches saturation point, and that's the nature of the market as I know it

Holding your Bitcoin won't be a bad idea. We are experiencing Bitcoin price rising lately, and it currently trading at about $62k. Although, if the OP feels he/she has made some profit, it is advisable to sell some portion of it. It won't be nice selling and probably losing from your investment because of lack of patience.

With the present condition of Bitcoin, IMO, there are possibilities that Bitcoin might reach $100k, however, I think that will definitely happen anytime sooner. Nevertheless, we should understand that is all predictions, and it may or may not happen.

I have a piece of advice for you: never sell your coin at a cheap price while purchasing at a high price. you should have to wait for the value of your bitcoin to increase. Because you will lose money if you sell bitcoin for a low price. You should be a little more patient at this point, since if you don't, you'll lose money but never receive anything. The price of bitcoin is projected to skyrocket in the foreseeable future.

Now that the price of bitcoin is about to decrease to $30 it will be better you sell now that the price is still $59k to enable you prepare more for the future. If you sell your coins right now, you have no regret about such decision than to be part of those investors that will be thanking God for the great opportunity.
Now there are many signs in the market that bitcoin price will not increase higher before the end of this year 2021. Bitcoin coin is seriously doing well in the exchange market, that is making investors to release their coin for sale to make a reasonable profit from their investment.

Decreased to $30?

Anyone who don't have a long term vision to bitcoin would be thinking about selling as it won't recover anymore.

That's if you're needing the money and use it for some meaningful things. But what if you've sold and you say that you're in profit and lately, you kept the money while watching bitcoin recovers back to its former price.

Selling Bitcoin now is not the best move. This is because you're likely to be gaining 50$ profit now, at the risk of losing >$100 profit as the price recovers, and even more of that profit loss in the long-term.

BTC has been bouncing back several times, and it's normal and necessary to be doing that before it shows a strong uptrend. With the season as it is now the likelihood that the market will turn green again is (in my view) high. Having said that, the long-term hold is definitely the best option where we're talking years not weeks from now.

Seriously? I'm not sure if where you get that information might be possible that it's just a
typo error or if you are serious about saying it will fall to $30, that's a huge crashed and
maybe an end for this investment. If ever or if hard correction may take place, maybe $30K
is the deeper fall it can go. There are many institutional investors now, people who will not
allow their money to be blown out.

Yeah, not the best time.

If someone has intented to sell then they should have always considered selling at the peak and not during the correction.

It's usually what's happening when we see the market goes down, instead of selling at tops, we're panicking to sell at dips.

I personally only hope for the long term perspective of my investment in Bitcoin. Of course, this year Bitcoin must definitely renew its maximum, but according to the statement of many analysts, Bitcoin can exceed its value several times in comparison with today's indicators and become a stable asset if its capitalization increases 20 times on average. I fully agree with this opinion and therefore I believe that the future of Bitcoin depends not only on good news, but also on all investors, including each of us.

It is always good to have an open mind about the posibilities of bitcoin! Bitcoin is beyond speculative asset as some will bet to disagree. Bitcoin is very valuable and useful for the world where money is not what it is! If I were you, I will hold my bitcoin and increase mywealth. Bitcon is not 'get rich quick'  but a long term asset that become valuable as years passes by.

After entering the crypto world, we must also be able to accept the risks of the crypto market that is going up and down. it depends on you and also your own beliefs. if you believe that bitcoin can provide profit in the future then hold on. but if you give up and want to accept the loss as you know then sell it. not everyone can survive with bitcoin whose price goes up and down in the market but for people who survive and can manage it well then it will be profitable.

If you feel you are still experiencing losses on the assets you have, it is best to keep your bitcoins. You don't have to worry about the price going down again, because when a dump occurs it will definitely repeat itself with the pump. The solution you have to do is to keep holding on until you get a profit, even if you are short on finances you can sell which is roughly enough for your needs. Do not let you experience a big loss.

Bitcoin goes dump when it has gone up. Those that are resorting to selling their bitcoins because it keeps on going down, they do lack market presence and experience that's why they're thinking that it's the best decision that they'll ever do. They have to think about holding it and much better if they can add more of it because that's the best idea that they can ever do whenever the price of bitcoin goes down. You don't have to sell but rather be patient and act naturally when things such as dump happen.

Selling is actually situational.

1. Emergency need of funds
2. You do only feel to sell
3. Secure profits
4. Selling because you do need to diversify
5. Influenced by other calls or signals

Holding is something that calls for long term but for active selling for profits then thats
what you called short trades.

They sell or not, it's the best decision that they might think of. There's profit and that's all that we're trying to catch as we live on this market. Whether it would be small or big as long it's profit, that's the best decision for them. Although there are people that are selling at losses so that they can cut further losses and that's also a good decision for them to mitigate the continuous losing that they're experiencing.

all of your own control that holds it, you simply see your initial goal whether you invest for the long term or only for the short term.
if you invest for the long term you may prefer to hold. because surely you already have a target price for bitcoin in the next few years. so that when the bitcoin price is not okay you will be calm and not panic.
but if you invest for the short term, you better sell your bitcoins immediately so you don't lose too much

How do you know the Bitcoin price to drop to $30? Show me the proof or reason? You must know that most people assume the current drop is just a normal correction before the next level ($70k). I can understand why people are still optimistic BTC price to pass $70k because there is a possibility of the next jump in Bitcoin price. Bitcoin trend is also quite positive now, more big companies joining BTC investment. If no bad news in November and December, I think BTC price can easily pass $70k.

First of all, we must understand that the crypto market can go up and down at any time, especially towards the end of the year like this. if before joining we have studied it well I think we are ready with all the risks that are in it such as an unpredictable market. but it's your own choice to continue or not because everyone has their own views. but for me bitcoin or other investments are profitable investments compared to other investments for people who can manage them well.

Buy and Sell defended on some matter.
If you think,

Its value will not increase
It will not exist in the future
Prices may fall further
Do not want to keep hold for a long time

then sell your bitcoin.

If you think,

Its value will increase future
Keep hold for long time
Prices may increase further

then don't sell your bitcoin.
Now Its your own matter for thinking.

What are those 'other investments' that are profitable?

What are those that are not profitable?

You need to be specific in telling just as holding bitcoin. We all knew that we're going to see the price increase soon for bitcoin and if it's not yet increasing, there's nothing to worry about it if you're only looking to the fall recently.

one thing you have to keep is your trust, the price of bitcoin is very volatile so never once you sell a loss ^(cut-loss), remember only the value of your assets decreases, not your assets.  stocks are tempting but the profit you get from bitcoin can be much greater than if you buy stocks now.

for me by investing using the money that settles, then I will hold on to bitcoin, because my concentration is only on cryptocurrencies, especially what we hold is bitcoin. but if you see an opportunity in the stock, I also can't blame it if you sell some of it and invest it in the new stock

Your first step should be to decide on your approach, whether you will go long or short. Is it really true that you have no idea what the next move is going to be for WallStreet on futures? A small Santa rally into December is nothing more than a chance to exit and short the top. The right way to trade is not to follow the majority, but follow yourself!

I think that at this moment it would be crazy to sell BTC, because it is very likely that the price will rise, however the opposite may happen, in this case it would leave everything still and would not panic and sell cheaper, because at any moment the Price will bounce and it will grow much more, however that is what I believe due to the little knowledge that I have acquired since 2017, there are many who prefer to sell and it is totally respectable, but it would hurt to sell and then double the BTC, although everyone chooses wisely what suits them.

There are two scenario. If you have invested for long term then no matter of Bitcoin price because every body know that Bitcoin is growing almost 2x every year and history repeating every time.
If you want to take profit for short term, December can be dumpember so try to exit by parts and we can re entrt in dip

I would strongly recommend you not to sell your bitcoin. You will face only losses if you would sale it at a low price. You better hold and wait till the value gets rises so that you might be able to sell it on the profit. No need to get panic. Still, if there is some sort of emergency or urgency then you can think for selling it on loss. But if there aren't any of such reason you better hold and wait.

To be honest, this is generally a decision of the trader himself. But still I haven't sold yet. It turned out to be bought at a good price, and so far I am in no hurry to throw it off.

Bitcoin has proven to be the Baddas of all investment and this is why people love to buy even at loss. You know one strange thing when people keep selling bitcoin, it's another person that's buying every Dip and they always sell when price go up and keep doing the same thing until they collect all their dollars and get bitcoin very cheaply when they panic or react to market negatively.
I hold bitcoin, I will hold and wouldn't sell any for anyone, that way we all increasing demand and reducing supply.

First thing before entering crypto is only invest those money which you afford to lose and youe daily timeline worked without this money.
Now if you invested this money no need to be worry bitcoin dump. Make your target like 2x,3x etc and make sell trade on exchange. Keep holding until Bitcoin price reach your target and sold.don't need to be panic.
 

It's good if you're not in a hurry.

That's should most holders should be. If you have bitcoin, there's no need to hurry because you know what's with it in the future and how much the potential that it can be.

So if you hold now, you're patient and just watch the market until you sell without panicking.

Money that you are willing to let go, it won't be hard for you to hold and wait if you are using amount that you don't care that much.

Bitcoin is volaile asset, you can earn double or more but you can also lose the same way, knowing the deeper side
will give you good confidence to when to sell after you bought your asset.

Be patient and allow the cycle to go and favor your target.

if for bitcoin I completely agree with you, there is no need to worry too much when we are dealing with bitcoin. because bitcoin has been designed to always increase every year at least during the halving, so if you are currently experiencing a price decline, there is still no need to panic and hold it for a while the bitcoin will increase again and at that time you react wisely whether you want to sell it immediately or not. waiting for the most opportune moment.

Guys, to be honest - the question is a little strange. This is the market, it seems like every man for himself. I think that it was possible to fold at 65, now you can take it.

You must have the right sets of knowledge before you invest in this kind of investment.

Bitcoin can bring good fortune for people who can wait and hold, but for those who think that it's easy access to earn better
to think twice or more. It's not something that you can avail if you invest a huge amount of money and you failed. Tough recovering
or worse, you won't be able to recover.

Make a wide research before deciding on whatever you wanted to do with your asset.

It won't be that low forever but currently, it's again low and for the eyes of the others, the price is too low for them.
But as they speak of its lowness, they don't intend to buy as they wait for it to go up. And on the other hand, if the price goes up, they would buy at the top again and would complain that they've bought at the top when there's a correction.

Yes you are absolutely correct because Bitcoin a wide range connection through the people worldwide. Most of the people in the world accepting cryptocurrency as their daily purposes. You can understand seeing Salvador which already a Bitcoin City country.

I think in this time the Bitcoin price go to down but according to my idea everyone invest your Bitcoin and the few time the price will be rise soon so everyone sell there coin and receive a huge amount profit so that is a point.

As the incentive for Bitcoin continues fluctuating and the vast majority start selling them rather than holding an ever increasing number of connecting with recommendations show up available Selling BTC when it has low rates is certainly not beneficial however individuals do as such in light of the fact that they appear to be apprehensive. Most merchants accept that the occasions of value breakdown are phenomenal for purchasing so this may be plausible to make more coins and stay inactive for some time until the economic situation becomes steady again If you decided to face a challenge once and put your cash in digital currency understanding that this is a risky decision then you should be cognizant that market varieties can't be circumvent and are totally ordinary.

assuming you are a prepared financial backer, you should recognize that your monetary decisions ought to be founded on more significant conditions value decline isn't simply a sign to hold and buy. Bitcoin is equivalent to different ventures and it has astounding times of expanding just as snapshots of breakdown There is no explanation in accepting that your interests in Bitcoin will always bring you cash That's a parkway that focuses to blunders and erroneous ends.

Whether you sell your bitcoin or not is entirely up to you. If you think your bitcoin is giving you good profit then you can sell it without any hesitation. And if you think your bitcoin is not giving you a profit, you can leave it until the market grows.

I recommend you to hold bitcoin this is top Crypto currency always they sudden pump so better is hold it and try to take your entery in every dip because investment in this never destoryed

The bitcoin market is down a bit at the moment so you can keep your bitcoin if you don't really need it. Everyone thinks that the bitcoin market will rise again in the coming days.

Imagine if u ask this question one year before . Bitcoin prices increase in every years. Now adays is very good days to hold and wait to rise and you make some profit.
Analyses say Bitcoin first target is 70k amd very possible that it will be achieved before march 2022. Hold and wait to make big profit.

I would say current price is not ideal for buying rather better sell. ATH or peak prices are recommended for selling but we do make mistake of buying them. IMO market is going to take a dip from here on and will time to recover. See the price chart, too much bullish season and now its time to have bear market.

As of today selling bitcoin has never been this easy, we have options to sell directly for fiat using bitcoin cards, you can also use peer to peer platforms like localbitcoins which connects crypto users from the same locale...if these don't make you comfortable you can easily sell your crypto at an exchange for competitive rates.

As for holding your bitcoins i think cold wallets are the way to go just remember to backup your wallets.

According to some best predictor bitcoin not so bad for long term holding because many big influencer buying Bitcoin in every dip and hold for future so this is sure bitcoin have a bright future

Nothing is assured when it comes to bitcoins future whether it would last up for more decades or would totally be replaced by something new and everything will all matters with the demand

and its up to someones decision whether they do hold or sell their bitcoins and thats according into their interest and goals in mind and since we do have different mindset then

personal actions would really vary on each person so its our choice whether we do proceed or not and since its our money then its just normal to have
those actions.

You have to think in more detail when it comes to investing. Because it is difficult to predict what will happen to Bitcoin in the future, you must have a plan B to deal with difficult situations. A lot of big people are thinking positively about Bitcoin and they are influencing people about Bitcoin which is a really good aspect. But any investor should have control over himself in making any decision, because one wrong timing and one wrong decision can lead to a huge loss.

In this case i said that if you want to more profit so hold your token is better then sell but if you receive a profit and you agree that is right amount for you so the right thing is that you sell there token and receive your profit that is my idea.

If you are satisfied with the profit and think you have a better coin or project to invest you must sell. In my opinion, Bitcoin is best than any other coin. It is also good for long term, take a look on previous charts. There is huge differences in prices in just a year. So holding is better than selling.

Market experiencing bull runs from start of this year even whole year and if you haven’t sold yet then now you can track your profit how is growing. market condision is still bullish, so why Should sell bitcoin without any reason even btc is far better than investing on others currencies/new stocks but if you think, you want to keep fund for buying dip, then its better you may sell some percentage of your fund.

As of today, bitcoin is trading with a value of $51.2k and has grown 10% than in the last 5 days so I think bitcoin is starting to recover after a month of declination. So for someone that had choosed to hold their bitcoin despite of the dip then congratulations you made the right choice and had the right mindset and sorry for the ones who had sold their coins because their commitment isn't that strong enough. Bitcoin has been known to recover from every dips historically and its future is still promising as bitcoin continues to grow due to its scarcity.

Holding and selling will depend entirely on the market If the market is in a good position then you can sell your saved coins in the market. However, if the quality of the project is good, then you can save a long time.

I think you can take some profit and invest on some promising stock to diverse your investment but I think you should leave some BTC I'm really sure and convinced that soon Bitcoin will broke $100,000 so I think it is smart to stock as many Bitcoins as possible.

Holdings any altcoins now in this industry is one of the good things for us to earn nice or good in the future.
Now in terms of Bitcoin hold, if you have a lot of money or huge capital that means you are capable to earn Big here
due to it is actually an advantage for having a large amount of money.

It's about bitcoin so basically, it's good to have it for holding. You can sell if you want to take some profit but do not forget to hold a bigger part because it is going to change your life.
Well, they say that it's only good for bigger amounts but you're getting there soon if you also accumulate as you hold, you should have the goal of increasing the amount of bitcoin that you want to hold.

I agree with you. Bitcoin has been really increasing its value over the time, so holding it especially for long-term goal is a good idea, in my opinion. But if OP would have to really sell, I suggest to not entirely sell all of his Bitcoin, and try to buy again if the situation permits him to do so. I think that he’ll never regret holding even for a long prior of time since we have seen what Bitcoin could give after some time.

Yes, if he has to sell, it's okay to sell but do not sell all that he has. As much as he can, save a portion that he's going to have for him to keep holding.
It's always the balance of your situation, if selling will make your situation better during the tough times, you sell but it's advisable that don't all that you have.
