Bitcoin Forum

Looking at the market now with different illustration about the current position, condition of the market from analysis, many crypto traders are coming out with there different analysis of where the market tend to go in the next few days. Some keeps agitating that the trend is still bearish while others come out with various technical analysis of the market, drawing different trendlines to show the support resistance of the coming bull.

We all know that Bitcoin controls the crypto market and it is a good determinant of most altcoins(maybe all). The fall of Bitcoin had affected the crypto market and I think keeping an eye on Bitcoin is very important to determine the fate of most alts in the market. I have seen much number of fud coming up with different technical tools of the market going down more.

What perspective are we going to accept here? Are we going with the analysis of the market going bear contineously or  claims that the price will go bullish? Maybe we should just be neutral without being too optimistic or pessimistic.

Following the market, trend should not be as confusing like the way it is currently, especially for those that care much about the market direction and are not too skilled on analysis the market direction.

Those analysts are giving their opinion on what they think will happen. No one is more than about 75-85% accurate.

Logically, based on what I've seen before. I expect us to range between $30k-$40k for a while (maybe a few months), break the $30 at some point potentially to spread a bit of panic and then go back to continue the previous trend upwards (at least past $60k).

If a lot of people seem bullish and bearish at the same time, it might be because something similar to this has been seen by them and a few will know of the potential to keep staying low (and bouncing between $30k to $40k for a while would actually make any up move quite a bit healthier).

(obviously this post is given for educational purposes only, there's a good chance the market does something completely different - and the numbers aren't accurate due to summarising slanted resistance lines).

It is true that bitcoin is always like the signal giver to the market.

This is the beauty of the market, you get insights from the two different sides and it's up to you who are you going to believe. But if you also do analysis then you must rely to what you think is right and accurate.

Honestly, you don't really have to rely with any of those predictions, speculations or analysis. If you can have your own then that's much better because what's proven is that, no matter someone is good in analysis, bitcoin has always and will always be unpredictable.

It really is confusing, way back when I was new I was exploring about Bitcoin and trading and stuffs, at first I was thrilled and excited but later on it did not matter at all as I was blown by the hype and all the things I have read are probably just temporary and depends on current situations and trends, some choices I have made are influenced by my colleagues, family and partners in businesses. I have been in this circle of decision makers and never I have regretted joining them. It is up to you to hear them or you single handedly do it.

Truly if you find support and encouragement from friends and family, you can be strong to get up anytime you fall and the best part of it is finding partners in the trading business who are really good and you all can trade and investment rightly. If you have good traders who will guide you then the market is not confusing however it is always a learning process.

Most traders nowadays are just sharing their opinions and prediction mate wherein its not final for sure since market still not showing stable growth rate. But as a trader in my personal opinion, probably you should know that there's always a way in order to make profits despite of the situation especially if you've been trading for years now. For me i used to back test which strategy will works or not in every situation..

I'm going to quote this picture:

February looks good historically, but this year is exceptional, we haven't seen it reach its peak ($100k) next year.
Positive hint: We started the year with a low price and also the month, so it will be a positive month anyway.

Will we return to 40k, 50k, 60k or more, this is must be your question

Everything is speculative and we do all have that presumptions on what the price would gonna look like but it is just all assumptions.If the market was predictable since from the beginning
then we wouldnt really be having time on keeping on speculating and all of us would really be that rich since we could really make out easily.This is where experience
would really be the key on sustaining yourself into this market and this is where we do strive on surviving this market.

This could be a great pattern but should not be your sole basis on investing because there’s no guarantee for this though I’m also confident about $100k price, its just that we can’t tell when it will happen. The market seems confusing but better to be more focus always and analyze properly to know your next move, don’t let your emotion drives you on the wrong direction, stay on a good path.

Traders should have their own ways on how to make profit in the market on every situation, only those who have nothing are the one who depends on any trading signal, this is way more risky.

The market is unpredictable but one thing is for sure, profit is always here you just have to timing it perfectly. Trading is not easy, understand the market situation have some prediction and support it with your own analysis. The market is very challenging to me, don’t get confused by this.

They have their own opinion and market analysis, and even you OP have different as well. Ain't that confusing for me for as long as we are following the trend unless we don't. But yeah, upon seeing the market chart we are also in doubt where it goes, we can't see which part has been stronger now either the support level or resistance.

But anyway, I was in the fact that the volatility of the market makes things unpredictable and no expert could tell about it. That is why we shouldn't have to be confused what is the direction of the trend as surely it's still unpredictable.

Well, that's crypto market for you, it's really hard to understand where the price is going to be and that's why the market is very interesting because no one really knows what it is going to be. Last year we have a prediction that the price will hit 6 digits and everyone is very excited.

But it's obviously, a missed, but you can take this as experience though. Yeah, it might be confusing most of the times, but if somewhat you hit the market at the right time, like selling at top or buying at the floor price then it's a great feeling.

selling at ath is easy. many will just sell as long as they have already profit, they don't even wait for the market to show overbought but buying at the bottom is likely the most difficult to do because there are lots of bottoms to see. and breakouts could be a potential loss for anyone who will buy at a certain price that they thought to be the bottom.

the market is confusing when we see it had dropped several times and it had not recovered since. it may be even good to sell today and wait for the price at $30k or buy now before it will move quickly up.

Yeah, always being cautious is highly recommended. Being optimistic may help in long run but you never need to be pessimistic in bitcoin market as even in bearish trend you should go for regular buying to make sure that you are getting better average for all your bitcoin holding.

Bitcoin market may not confuse the people who are all into some plans. Only those active traders who try to fish for momentary benefits might get confused and may lose due to unpredictable market volatility. So, planning for long term holding and making use of dips could help anyone for current market scenario.

Does that matter? What someone says does not matter in the market. So there is no need to pay any heed to them.

Everyone has their own logic. But they change their point when the market starts moving again. Because the market became a bit stagnant at 35-38k levels they are coming up with such statements.

Again, does the technicals always indicate the market movement? No. It is a 50-50 thing here.

You dont need to accept any of them. If you are trading, just place orders for buy and sell at a range and then go back to your life. If you are day trading, then you would have a lot of problems wading in a stagnant market, which I dont suggest people to do.

Trend can be anything, but trends cannot be determined by a one-day approach. You would need a few days at least. Dont listen to what others say but capitalize on what others fear.

I read recently that thousands of bitcoin were moved out of exchanges, this can be the start of bull run, but we should still never forget that if this year is related to the past time which is 2018 in the previous halving, then this year will be bearish than bulllsih. After the whole news that bitcoin consolidated at around $35000 and that holders are moving their coins from exchanges to their personal wallet, the price rose to over $38400 but nothing much after that time. We should be careful and not enter into bull trap.

Altcoins are following bitcoin trends but altcoins are riskier during bear market, they increase very well in bull run, they also decrease very well in the bear market, they decrease even than bitcoin, this is the reason it is good to avoid altcoins in bear market.

This time may be bearish, we have to be very careful.

This is a good table for the historical prices of bitcoin for the month of February. I guess if history repeats itself then this month is going to be better and not confusing to the others.
And after that, what we need to worry and be ready is with the month of March. That month is always where the drops have been showing and just as much as we know, we should prepare more for that month only if the table is going to do the same result.

Most of us doing trader rely on technical analysis, we can't just claim the price will go bullish and go buying without any other information that will backed our decision it is like buying coins without thinking and we can only rely on technical analysis what it is printing, yes it is true that it is volatile and unpredictable but that doesn't mean that we can't rely on the technical analysis.

Most of these people who call themselves "experts" do not know what they are doing, the reality is that we are talking about something that is rare to do and we should probably not listen to them. If they were so smart about making that type of money, they would have retired by now for sure.

The reality is that many people would fail to make that kind of prediction, it is still "possible" at times, obviously there are times people do make predictions and they are right, people are not wrong 100% of the time but they are wrong at the very least "sometimes" even if not most of the times.

It means that if you listen to them and make investments based on what they say, then you may end up with losing some money as well. This is why I doubt that people would be able to make a profit, not saying that you WILL but there is a chance that you might, which doesn't worth the risk.

Yep, there's always different views and predictions of where price is headed because of the different lens from which traders see the market. By lens I mean – Timeframes. We can rightfully also add – the temperament of traders too. However, whatever any trader does, it should be objectively done. Certain traders will want to keep a bias mind to where price and trend should go even when their indicators tell them otherwise. This is a misjudgment because someone is allowing their emotions get the better part of them. Going forward, OP isn't the only one in a state of confusion while viewing the market. It used to stumble me too as to why someone will place a buy while another places a sell at the same time on the same pair. But now I know better. Nevertheless, my overall perspective on Bitcoin this first quarters is that it will be bearish.

The market is still now under the undecided decision if they want to break the support or the resistance if you are trying to check we are now committing a reversal but of course, there's a chance that they might decline again and it's just a false hope only to the investors. I guess the better to do is wait for the real signal if you think it's good to buy or sell your assets it's better to cut loss than thinking that there's a reversal always makes a plan and follow to prevent emotional decisions towards mistakes.

One thing that I always use if the market moves confuse like now is not trying to do analysis and leave the market or just watch how the market moves. Besides that, I can calm down and release tension after trading. It works for me so I think you can try it so you can refresh your minds and when you come back to the market, you can analyze better without any tension. That is why I do not force myself to keep trading if the market is hard to analyze and that will use to save your funds from the loss.

I would like to correct you, it's not confusing... it is unpredictable. The market is a battle between buyers and sellers and if the are more buyers the price will go up and if there are many sellers rather than buyers the price will go down so there's really no way you can predict it and even sometimes even if the TA is clearly showing what can happen it didn't happen. So it is not confusing but rather unpredictable.

It perhaps, what it makes confusing is that we wanted the market to follow our predictions and yet, it was not. If we just allow the market go as it was, we don't feel a headache. That's it, why not make another stuff while the market is in a situation like this, it can be soon to recover and make some profit as we did the buy earlier. That can be more confusing if we did nothing while the market is in corrections.

We have seen many people bringing those analysis and charts but during a volatile market none of those actually matters.
The demand drives the trend and then the trend drives the momentum of how market would react int he upcoming months.
According to me, I don't really think we will go bullish or bearish any time soon and may be we are just in a consolidating period.
But that's just my opinion.

Predictions and analysis from different resources will always exist and sometimes, listening to all their opinions would lead us to confusion so it will be an advantage if we'll know how to deal with the market. It will always be an advantage that despite the market's volatility and unpredictable movement, we'll still be able to make our analysis.

If everyone would be doing the same analysis and making the same predictions, how would anyone be able to profit in the market then? The market is all about someone's loss becoming someone's profit. The market is obviously confusing, everyone has their own learnings, own theories, own experiences, and therefore have their own profits and own losses. I feel one shouldn't copy anyone else when they join the market, one should always do their own analysis, imply their own learnings, you might see a lot of confusion among traders, yet there are a certain set of traders who are making consistent profits, it's not that they don't make losing trades, but the goal is to win in the longer run.

technical analysis do also have its level? That's interesting and I never thought of that before. It is better to use technical analysis than not using anything at all because this could help us to at least achieve our predictions and if we are not really that successful at first few tries , that's alright because our level of expertise is still low but we can keep on trying till we rise on a much higher level.

Market is so confusing yes that was true but what can we do? That's how cryptocurreny works but that makes crypto interesting because all has a chance to make a profit and this profit can be higher that none of us would imagine but let us be careful because the opposite can also occur.

What's unpredictable is always going to be confusing. I guess that's the best term for it.
TA's aren't accurate though. What makes them a bit reliable source of info for the price forecast is that they collect data from before and analyse the flow of the buying and selling of the investors and traders.
So, just like the market in unpredictable, there's no way someone can predict the market accurately.

If you have been in this market for a long time you will probably have an idea on how things work in here. Bitcoin is always unpredictable when it comes to price prediction some may get the answer but not to close to price they mentioned. Everyone can make their own analysis based on what they've seen and experienced then use it on the market for trading but sometimes things will go sideways.

I think if the was kind of confusing to you then maybe it's confusing to some other people too. That's enough to make the market in a panic to make the price decline and let the investors buy cheap Bitcoin or buyback after gaining some profit during the bull run.

Its interesting to see what will be the next trend and this can be a big challenge to every trader on how they execute their plan and strategies. Yes its confusing but that’s normal, you just have to focus yourself on what matters to you, don’t look on every price of the token, have a list on what to analyze and you can start from that. Cryptomarket is getting more volatile everyday, accept the challenge and become more profitable.

Once you do have the experience then you could easily adjust even though it wouldnt be simple but doesnt mean that it would be impossible.Just go with the flow
and make out some changes if its needed even though market is confusing but with due experience and skills then it would really be bearable for someone to do so.
We are continuing to strive to be profitable into this market thats why if it does really need up some changes if we would want to then we would
need to have those kind of adjustments.

True. There is no guarantee that we will have a good price pattern this year. Also, the same pattern happening previously may not repeat. So, that table (Bitcoin price data) is only one of the sources to consider our plan for our BTC/altcoins assets this year. Don't rely on this data to buy/sell our Bitcoin because the price cannot be determined by the data, it is purely determined by the market trends/demands. To know this, must be according to our own research.

If we are talking about its possibility, then I can agree with you. However, people expect the BTC price of $100k to happen in the near future since some experts ever stated it was possible previously. I'm not an expert in predicting the price, but considering the current trend in crypto market, $100k won't happen this year. So, it is possible to achieve $100k, but probably in the next bullrun.

 :(Market sometimes seems confusing cause nowadays we don't really know which of the investment is actually genuine.
 A whole lot of things that happening around make investment a doubt things to do , things like  fraud, and perhaps everybody around is doing things for their own selfish interest so none thought of the interest of others .

Not that hard for the traders as they are into that and continue trading even the market is in a situation like this but for doubtful investors, this seems to be a challenging part and surely they got thinking not to sell. This is really the looks of a volatile market, nobody will be able to read the market right but just only pure speculation and mostly is wrong. And that is the reason why we shouldn't have to confuse as even we wanted for the market to make follow on our prediction but that is really impossible.

Maybe it shouldn't be like it is now if you follow the cycle of the market every year.
However, we need to know that there are many factors that affect the market today.
This year's market conditions are different from previous years. Many new stakeholders, investors, and interests have joined, and they are a great force. And maybe these cannot control the market directly, but they can indeed have a big enough influence.
Many predictions related to Bitcoin were not realized and did not live up to expectations.
So, just follow the current market flow in order to survive and continue to earn even a little profit.

From which angle are you viewing this, are you a trader or an investors. If you're an investor then what's your investment strategy. Do you look for short term profit or invest for long term. If you're investing for long term than all this don't matter because in the long term you'll definitely be rewarded for investing now. Bitcoin has already lost a significant amount of price value with the market correction and all coins are selling at a discounted price that won't stay that way for a very long time.

You should be investing right now by dollar cost averaging so you don't invest all your funds and the market keep dipping. As for been a trader, you should be able to read the charts and interpret without having to rely on other or go back to learning because if you can't interpret charts then you're no trader. People will always have different opinions about the market, what matters is for yours to be right atleast majority of the time so as to stay in profit.

The market is confusing because it fluctuates, therefore you must have the right strategy to deal with it. You must have a direction in the middle of this enigmatic market, try to do a market analysis and determine what strategy should be used. You have to know the right time to buy or sell coins, otherwise you will most likely experience a loss because you are just confused in the middle of the market. Think carefully about the steps that must be taken, don't just focus on the amount of profit when you are in a state of confusion, this will only slow down time .

Most of these analyses are carried out in order to maintain the hope that the crypto market will soon recover, but we all know that each analyst conducted their research based on their own opinions and beliefs. What I merely want to say regarding the current cryptocurrency market is that crypto holders should continue to build strong resistance and trust that it isn't over yet, as Bitcoin and the entire crypto market will soon recover.

If you're not sure what to believe, calm yourself and do nothing until you know what to do. If you're doing stock trading or futures, and you're just waiting for someone to clarify what situation we should expect in the market, then you should think twice before you act based on their analysis, because it's not gonna be always accurate.

The market is very tricky, so if I were you, I'd rather do my own analysis and decide what to do based on it therefore whatever happens, you're not gonna regret more since it is your decision that you follow.

Going back and forth is very tiring, unless you're scalping, I think the best is to not trade, like the saying that says "Not trading is also a trading" I hope the market bounces back as soon as possible.

Lol you don't stop trading just because the market is on a direction but because you don't get it rightly if your plan or strategy and then you can take a break to return to it later. The market will not give you all guarantee trades and when it does that too it will first push you to another level before drawing back to your profit and that is the time spiking usually happens. Using stop loss won't allow all your capital to be lost.

It actually depends on the trader most of the newbie or inexperienced trader doesn't trade once they see their coins falling it's their strategy to hold but yes stop loss is a must in every trade not unless you really don't know what you are doing or no experience at all. Sometimes I believe with that no trading is also trading it happened to me before that instead of selling I just hold my coins and regain back my losses.

It's healthy and if we are talking about being optimistic with the confusing market then it's the behavior of being the unknown.
Visualize a market that is predictable, do you think we will be able to see a value like this of Bitcoin or altcoins? Maybe yes, or maybe not.
The volatility of it could be profitable on your side if you guess the right movement. That's one more positive view of it.
A confusing market also tells us that deep manipulation is not happening. There might be whales who does it but not in such heavy portion like this type of bear.

It might be really confusing for the majority of us, but we learn how to deal with it. Just a matter of implementing our market strategy and update it regularly based on the price movement. Because there is no one single formula that can guarantee you to make profits every time. So you make an educated guess, be it with TA or your hunch and then go for it. If you win, then good for you, if you loss then go back to the drawing board. That's why most of the team trading is often compared to gambling because of this. Again, we heard about this so called manipulation, but I guess it's hard to prove isn't it?

But it also doesn't rule out the analysis of other people that we can compare. As long as we trade, doing our own analysis is indeed the most important option because after all, if we entrust everything to personal trading mastery, the results will be felt. both big and small, when what is analyzed is right on target, we will continue to hone it and provide motivation that trading is not as scary as it is to keep losing.

This is likely true. It shows free market for every player to interact and make profit or loss but definitely not on just one direction, it floats rotates from one side to another side. This kind of market can bring you back to profit easily because it won't eat you deep into your losses before coming back. It usually closes with the opening price.

Look, the market is always confusing if you think that way. But not confusing for all especially those who could read market data. It's just an opportunity to accumulate more to me. Everyone's thoughts wouldn't be the same anyway. It's true when the market becomes red and a lot of bad news and FUD pop up at the same time which has been leading to more dump. If you take it as an advantage then you can accumulate more. If you become panicked means you would lose.

By the way, the current market is moving up. Right now it's trading above $40K, which is a hard pump to me. So, definitely, we might see some FOMO and good news soon to boom again.

Yes, market was very low from few weeks, Today it increases 3000$ in Just an hour. Now the market condition is looking good, let's wait & see.

Once the market is going green, a lot will try to get on board again. This kind of mentality sometimes is not good because if you buy while the price is still low, you can already earn profits once the market is going up. But well, not all people have the mindset of accumulating valuable coins while we are seemingly in bearish mode. A lot of them want to buy when it is about to peak. With this 40k break, more than likely, a lot of people are checking again bitcoin and wanting to buy.

yeah, but they are thinking that once the market goes up probably it will continue and it gives them quick returns. In fact, we can see a lot of people are taking advantage of the hypes projects and that is the same scenario. We could think about where they are during the bear market? It perhaps was their choice and strategy. They are comfortable using this and that is found effective to them coz if not, they were surely not used it anymore.

In that particular situation, let's make things in general. Choose the one that we anticipated and expected since we will not end up on that result for nothing. We will just give too much confusion on our mind if we allow ourselves not to focus on our own way of speculating things.

On this speculative market, we will really see lots of analysis on where the trend should go. Trust our own analysis then from there, form a strategy that we can use on long-term.

Stop looking at those market analysis. Those are analysis made by individuals that think what might happen in the future. Those are predictions that are never accurate. You can never accurately predict the crypto market. It is very volatile and different events can cause the price to turn up or down. So don't just invest based on those prediction. You will see two "experts" giving exactly the opposite opinion about the price, and both of them will back their claims with "illustrations", "signals", signs, trends and other analysis. Best is to not look at those analysis. Just zoom out the chart and see how it always was a bull run. Invest whenever and whatever you can afford to lose. Keep holding till you reach your profit goal.

I am part of that "not skilled" in reading the market but it also has perks if you get lucky even if you are just armed with the basics.
The volatile market may be confusing but if you are composed enough to keep on going back to the basics then it may also become profitable. Avoid being in a panic because that is when you make bad decisions especially in trading either short or long-term. Isn't it also encouraging to see that it proves no one is in control over it?

They can buy and leave the market when it seems not moving well, so they do not have to worry about seeing the price fluctuation.
That will be anticipated from panic when the price jumps to the lower price while we can accumulate more in the downtrend.
So congratulation to people who bought bitcoin below $40k because they are now making a nice profit but their profit can become bigger if they can still hold and buyback in the next correction.
If you can manage your emotion from the market situations, there will be no need to feel confused as you may know when you should enter the market to buy bitcoin.

Not trading means HODLING , so yeah that is also considered as trading but to keep the funds long term instead of daily basis .  but why confused if He is not trading at all? this is the problem in which people are trying to input questions when there are no proof if they are really into market or just spreading fud or shill.
actually sometimes ? it is the flooding here in which coin to make funds,  there are also more of the investors are not skilled , but they know the discipline of being investor.

emotional management that will bring our minds not to be confused. Of course, before entering the crypto world, we know that it has high fluctuations, therefore we must prepare mentally so that we can think calmly. especially if we aim to invest, then dizziness due to market fluctuations does not need to occur, as long as we use free money

Fluctuations in the crypto market are normal and we should get used to it,
prepare all the very important things before entering into the market,
one of them is mentally preparing because in crypto it is difficult to predict and not everyone can survive with such conditions

In fact, building a mentality is not as easy as it seems. When relative market fluctuations make a lot of various assumptions that cause a lot of panic in the market. If it's not possible to trade, try studying long-term investing with the cryptocurrencies reviewed. There is no need to worry about a temporary increase or decrease in price. Investing is the most preferred thing if the time to trade does not really provide a guarantee in a short period of time.

Exactly, we can do trading as we know that but sometimes our emotions have been giving us troubles and even not to think the right thing, instead, it leads us to the wrong direction. If we can just manage this feeling (panic/worries) that trading is really good and really profiting but somehow, it seems so hard to execute.

Even in investing, a simple act of holding can't be perfectly executed and that was because we have been influenced by our emotions. That is why we need to stop this and help us not to confuse as the dumps and pumps exists forever.

That's how both the trading and investment cycles have the same level of mentality. self-control and familiarity with market price movements should always be considered positive. Sometimes self-test is the most important, always be as controlling as possible. Traders and investors have their own way of dealing with market situations. Therefore, the concept of investment in my opinion so far is still effective in controlling mentality.

As you said, the market is so confusing. The more people try to analyse the logic towards the crypto market, the more confused they get. The crypto market is unpredictable, nobody can ascertain the direction is heading to, whether bearish or bull market.
Analysing the crypto market is like putting yourself in a dilemma position.
Am long gone listening to those predicting the future price of bitcoin or bothering myself about the present price of the altcoin I hodl in my portfolio

People from impotence begin to think that some kind of all-powerful monster is sitting behind the management of the market. He's mocking you personally. He does everything against your will - when you work on a real account with your funds... But, at the same time, you are doing great on a demo account. Psychology !

If you confuse about the market just leave it alone and dont forget to buy the dip, You can leave it till it reaches a new ATH. If you are tired to analyze the market then just get a break from trading except it's your only way to earn money. I agree that we must hodl although many people tell you to sell and dont forget to use your money that you can afford to lose.

Some people would tell you that it is usually good for you to be hopeful of the best and at the same time be prepared for the worse. None of us has the ability to see the future, so mostly what we are doing here is speculation, or we just try to see what would likely happen in the future, but we are not so sure about it. So, maybe it is best for you to be neutral on the destination the price would be heading to this period.

But to he true to ourselves, everyone knows that we are in the time for bearish trends, so the market would usually go down, but there will also he times when the market would also go up a bit, just like it did as of recent, it might go from $30k to $40k, but there wouldn’t be any serious bullish trend as we know it.

The margin of error for most technical analysis was minimum until the institutional take over of bitcoin while we notice some new market manipulators. This is a token of 40% of the whole cryptocurrency space and development in the space is expected to alter the previous as envisage. However, onchain analysis has been superb and trusted according to willywoo

Wouldn’t really be advisable to tell a trader that they shouldn’t trade because if the market is bearish, knowing very well that day trading is their source of income and it is something that they are doing on a daily to make income for themselves. Even if the market is bearish there is still very much the opportunity for anyone who is a trader, with whatever strategy that they are using, either scalping or other strategies, to be making good income from the market.

Day traders are taking advantage of the little up and down in price, they can go in for 5 to 15 minutes, and sometimes it can even be just for a minute and they are out with profit as long as they know what they are doing. The only person that would have to take a break now is a long term trader who usually HODL.

What for buying if you want to leave or retire? Are sure we're already in the dip? I suggest not buying any coins if you want to retire or leave crypto. Forcing to buy before retiring may make you regret it someday. Moreover, if the prices of those coins are much cheaper later, you must be very disappointed. Just wait till the end of this year or wait till the next year if you want to buy at the dip and prepare your assets before another bullrun in 2024-2025.

That is why it is called speculation, no concrete results should be expected in short time frames. The accuracy of prediction depends on few factors, obviously the more data the trader has the higher chance of reliability can be researched but even if trader has all available information the market nature stays random. Bear and bull cycles can be predicted only on daily or weekly time frames, below this level is gambling, IMO.

I agree with the op that we shouldn't be too optimistic or pessimistic about the market, because this is the only way I believe we can ultimately deal the the confusion, personally, this is what I do.
For someone who bought recently and not ready to sell soon, that is, he or she is already determined to hold for maybe let's say 3 to 4 or 5 years from now, current condition(s) of the market shouldn't be a concern at all, but then our brain loves playing tricks with us by making us want to see our investment(s) appreciating even when we are not ready to liquidate or cash in on it yet.

This is I think, normal reaction if you are invested on something. Not only in crypto market, but even in stock market, real-estate or gold. You tend to check the current market prices, even if you're not selling your assets. For me, that's fine because you also need to keep up with the latest happenings of what you are holding. So if there's some worst case scenario that is about to happen, you are not too late to make your action.

And we don't need to be perfect anyway. Since we embrace the market like this, then we have to accept that prices went like this were up and down remain unpredictable. And in fact, it wasn't confusing as we know this since before, nothing had changed that might bother us, it was the same scenario that we saw 10 years ago, it is only the price that change and we're glad to see it is growing.

This is how the crypto market works. That for sure wasn't hard to understand.

Maybe invest once. Forget for a long time. And then wake up in paradise ?  After all, this is also a trade. Find a new tool.  Which is not even traded today. And earn millions of percent to spite all enemies. Strange. But all my merits are from the DOGECOIN Russian branch . No one believed then a long time ago in 2016.  Many people laughed. A premonition...And deep analysis with an understanding of blockchain. At the same time, I personally invested in incomprehensible projects. Maybe everyone will laugh again today. .. But.. that person is laughing. who laughs last. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=428589.msg59172813#msg59172813

We are not going in continuous market bearish trend here, its the way this market works mate. I don't know, but let us understand that this market is getting driven by the center of investment which is uncertain. The market is free, anyone can withdraw enormous amount, move huge pot of bitcoins somewhere, get involved into different manipulation strategies etc. The market is not simple because we make it look like difficult.

Its volatile because of its decentralised nature, partial control etc. The market sometimes is more prone to "Fundamental analysis" rather than technical trendy line etc.

You might wanna study the cyclic changes of bitcoin and you will understand long deserting bearish trends are very normal in the crypto currency space.

Crypto has always been unpredictable from the start. And no matter how good we are as a crypto analysts, we will never hit the bull's eye. Everything we say will always fall as speculations. But these speculations greatly affect us because we tend to always believe in it, when in fact they are just for short term, as no one holds what the future will be. The market may look confusing on the people who are too optimistic or pessimistic about it, but if we chose to be neutral, this will help us understand the market more.

Yes, the crypto market  look confusing to those who are lazy to carry out their personal research to get the right prediction in the community. Now that the price of bitcoin has dropped to $40k, show that investors are about to achieve something good from their long bearish market.


The market is very clear now for bitcoin investors to know what will happen any moment from now because bitcoin price is about to demonstrate massively in crypto market for those waiting for bulling market, to start experiencing the benefits in crypto market. Just try to be more focus on professional traders predict, because some of them experienced so many crypto market challenges and still get the right prediction at the end.

That is what I do time to time. At the end of the day, trading is not my only income. Sometimes, I just feel like there is nothing that I want to do in trading and anything like that so I give a break and just do not look it like I normally do. Sure I still follow the price like once or twice but I do nothing like that.

This is why it gives me a break to actually feel better when I give it a break time to time. It just makes me realize that I could give a break which means I am not addicted, at all. On top of that it means there is the fact that I could miss doing it, and when I get back to trading I would be basically doing it better and with more hype.

We can predict an insane bull market or even can speculate about $100 BTC price scenarios but the reality is always different from each perspective. The future vision of crypto investors is mostly about bull markets and $ sign on their eyes dreaming about $1bln worth BTC price. Surely, I am not an expert in this field but no one else is since new markets have pro traders but it is too young that can "build" expert traders. Drawing a few trendlines on charts and reading fundamental analysis-related news doesn't make anyone pro trader, it is something psychological.

We shouldn't be going with analysis provided by others let it even be an expert or influencer because they cannot predict it before dump and once the market dumped they started predicting bear market except few, vice verse for bullrun as well.

We may compare their analysis with ours to understand if we are on same page or why do we differ, i have seen youtubers stating Bitcoin will cross $70k with some golden triangle analysis and next week it dumps hard so noone can predict they can just share their point of view.

As i have said in the past this time it's too confusing and we are left with only one options and they go with the market flow and avoid investing any new funds.

Aiming for millions will make you work hard for it. But the thing is, you'll get there someday if you're consistent today.

I think it's better to be consistent with your trades or investments and then you'll meet that soon through your consistency. Because when people think about millions to earn, they're becoming crazy.

They will invest almost everything they can and that's more than being confused. Even they're aware that a platform or investment is likely a scam but because of their goal and desire without having a reliable plan, they'll get in there.

All the time, predictions are meant to fail and make another again and again.
I'm no expert in analyzing the market nor I was good in trading but I know that I was confident of what I'm doing even without the help of other people. That is why we have to make our own analysis as no one had been expert to this nor someone knows what gonna happen someday. if we can do this simply thing, we are almost about to win the market and never confused of anything.

The market is confusing definitely! And I think for some it's more confusing and for some less, to be honest here, not everyone has good analytic skills! Even if you have it it's not everything in that, you need to be active and have good timing for your trades if you wish to be successful!
In the short term, my skills are like 0, simply I don't have much time for watching charts and news every day, what I catch from reading is simply not enough to be successful in analyzing short term changes... from time to time I have some fun with some short trades, but they are usually mistakes, luckily I see it as a fun and I do it with some small amounts! I am more focused on the long run, buying some top coins, low cap but potential coins, and holding them until they mature and bring profit!

This is the wisest statement clearly based on experience.

Predictions are for fun, and the best or worst thing is you can only be right or wrong, up or down. And it is all for fun,,, if anyone takes predictions seriously then they probably need to go back to the books and realize that people in markets are never ever guaranteed profit in fact,,, long term you are guaranteed to lose (simply to fight the commissions and immediate loss on every trade made).

The only profit guarantee long term is to hodl, this is my take.

I agree, these guys who are making price predictions most of the time they were in price prediction and I just realized that a lot of guys create channels on youtube and to get followers and sell trading courses and they keep making predictions that somehow get it right Sometimes people believe they are experts and pay for courses and follow the person on their youtube channel. I see that they also do this in tradeview

Bitcoin can indeed be used as a crypto market signal where when the price drops it will also affect Altcoins, although there are some altcoins that are not affected by Bitcoin until now Bitcoin is still a benchmark for other coins and a reference in the crypto market. The market is indeed confusing because we never know for sure when it's time to go up and down so we have to really understand and analyze the market. To respond to market situations that sometimes go up and down, we need to be patient and careful because if we rush and panic, it will make our minds even more confused, and can end up getting losses.

This kind of situation has been happening for years because bitcoin is the king of every cryptocurrency nowadays. I don't think this situation will change in the future, unless there are other cryptocurrencies that are better and more perfect than bitcoin.

No, it's never confusing if you really believe in bitcoin like most other investors. Supposedly if you prefer to invest than trade then you are much more in control of your emotions from price fluctuation. Ignore the price fluctuation and try to stay on the target you want to achieve because it will let you get a feel for how your investment returns are actually going.

Because the movement of the crypto market is based on supply and demand, therefore it is difficult to predict and sometimes looks confusing.
Supposedly if we study crypto properly, we should not be confused. Because as long as the choice of coins for investment is correct, then we just
need to be patient to be able to generate profits. Regarding Bitcoin price movement what you say is true, Bitcoin price movements can be a sign of
where the market will move, because most of the altcoins movement is strongly influenced by the movement of Bitcoin. As of now Bitcoin is rising
to a price of $42k, then we can see on the CMC site, almost most of the altcoins have also gone up in price. Hopefully the price of Bitcoin continues
to rise and can return to the ATH price, then we can see the bull market coming.

This is not something that is "100%" true. Why? Because, unfortunately there are some "influencers" who end up telling people that their predictions are always right. As we all know they are not right but they keep telling this to convince enough people. Sometimes they get money for it, sometimes they get fame for it, I do not know what would be the case for most of them but I know that it is certainly something that is not that rare and they make some income from it.

I am pretty sure they get paid to share most of the stuff you see on their twitter as well. So basically you are right but people are unaware and some people convince others that you are wrong and they are actually great.

nothing is confusing at all.

Whenever january month ends with price fall, we get to see a relief rally in February. It is history... So don't get confused bud.

And it is an obvious thing that market can't go only upwards it needs correction. And that already happened so I feel this month would be good for bitcoin.

True!
In my opinion, every newcomer needs to focus on this. Simply buy and HOLD for a few years.

I do not know of a coin that bitcoin does not have its influence on. It is possible that only stablecoins)) But that's why they are stablecoins, in order to remain stable. Everything else, when we see that the price of a coin begins to go against the market, then this movement is temporary and is usually associated with positive news, or a pump&dump scheme.

Stable coin is neither for assuring profits or protecting yourself with the volatility which people do mostly have this kind of view or intent on using up stable coins.Market is indeed confusing

and if you dont know on how to act according into situations then you would really be finding this a very big problem.This market does really have that kind of behavior

on which neither the price could shoot up or go down neither it is on that manipulative behavior or totally in random.You couldnt tell on whats next.

The truth is that it is impossible to perfectly predict what the market is going to do, and the reason for this is simple, while we see the charts moving the truth is that the charts are nothing but an abstraction of what is actually happening, and what is happening you may ask? Millions of people trying on their own to predict what the market will do, and since it is impossible to solve an equation with millions of variables then it is not surprising that trading is completely unpredictable, however despite all of this there are still ways to make money in the markets, but as we know it is not something easy to do..

I have seen as many opinions as I have allowed myself to read, and I like how some people think, however in the forum one has an idea that can be strengthened thanks to the knowledge and experience of some users, for now I think it is not so confusing anymore, because the market cannot only be lateral, or bullish, it must also have its bearish stage, that is the healthiest thing, however when we are in bearish stages you should also win, just leverage yourself even by 5x and take risks, maybe You see profits are made, it is much better than just waiting and waiting, this from the point of view as a market speculator, the point of view as an investor is another.

Influencers telling you they're always right does notchange the fact that predictions should be for fun,,, and perfectly fits as an example of what I said that if anyone takes predictions seriously, they need to return to basics and realize their mistake.

If you are following an influencer,,, you need to know better. Of course everyone shilling gets paid OR has an interest. Buy coin A and tell others to buy it.

This is why it is a waste of time to follow those influencers and their predictions, they are not really predicting anything, the only thing they are doing is promoting themselves and the coins they bought and they are hoping that enough people follow their advice so they can sell their coins at the top of the market.

In fact this is no different than what pump and dump groups do all the time, however it is slightly disguised by the influencer fame and the prestige of the social platform they are using.

You're right! when there is uncertainty in the market, it is better to have a neutral position. However, you also need to understand the nature of rising and falling prices in the market. For example, in 2021, the United States actively printed new money and crushed it, some of which unconditionally went to the crypto market and the stock market. Which in turn enabled BTC to reach its new ATH. But what now? Why should BTC go up again now? It is likely that new money will be printed again and the market is waiting for the next native, or vice versa, the refusal to print new money and the market will go down. This is just my personal assumption and everything can happen for other and other reasons. Therefore, I decided for myself that if I can now make a profit from the use of cryptocurrency, then it is best to fix this profit right away, and then time will tell.

I wouldnt recommend this because relying into those people wont really give out some advantage but its not bad to snip out some idea from others but it would be add up into your
own analysis and i do see this is much more worthy rather than on relying yet you would also gain up experience and knowledge on this kind of method at least rather than on
being dependent with those so called experienced or veterans on this market.You wouldnt able to explore and realize it out on how this market works if you dont tend to
taste out for yourself on how it do behaves.

 That is the thing, there are two types of people, one that takes everything what others give them and they do not care about learning at all, they just want to be given a "tip" that will make them rich and that is it. The other type of people are people who ignore everyone, and never trust anyone and only care about what they believe to be right, if they are wrong at least they are wrong themselves and only to blame themselves, if they are right then it is great. All in all there are basically nothing that could stopping them doing it solo and never care. I would say somewhere in the middle is very important. Focus on learning from others and then use that for your own research and development.

The market can be so complicated atimes that if you don't calculate or take time to study it,you will have a big loss which will affect your financial status.
Most atimes when we go about investing,we forget to ask questions concerning the project we are going to invest in,and thereby making mistakes that are unfavourable to us.

Better to be neutral than to be aggressive. There will be days that day trading isn't profitable and you're getting into losses. And if you try to continue, it's possible that you'll deal with more losses. So being neutral and at the mid of it, who can control your emotions and decisions.
You're just doing fine because you know what you're doing and you're not aggressive with it. The more neutral you are, the better you are becoming and easy to adjust with the situation in the market.

It's unquestionably confusing. Traders ought to have their own techniques for benefitting the market in any circumstances, as well as information and a strategy for growing their profits, which is exactly what the crypto market is. It's very hard to foresee where the cost will be, which is the reason the market is so interesting on the grounds that nobody knows without a doubt.

However, the bitcoin market is unlikely to perplex those who are invested in certain strategies. Only active traders who try to fish for short-term gains may become confused and lose due to an unpredictable unstable market.

Because there's some group who controlling the Bitcoin movement like the government that banned Bitcoin. If we want to short term trading with daily profits we should watch any news of any potential threat to Bitcoin or other coins. Just go for the long term and forget about the market volatility so you wont get in a confused market.

Have majority people with holding many bitcoin assets controlling market and make us confusing with bitcoin and altcoin price suddenly pump and few minutes later dump. Give benefit for future trading on this side because when they want use long position will buy back bitcoin and keep hold it, but few hours later after earn profit they will short and sell bitcoin assets. Looks easy for community holding many bitcoin how controlling exchange market depending what they want, not function how many day hard working with chart analyze because they can make pump and dump depend when they want.

Markets are not always in the same place investors are in a confusing position when the market is in a precarious position when trading. Maximum trading productivity is ensured by signal trading information which can regularly bring maximum financial return for investors who trade on the exchange this adversity is already known. Also learn the disadvantages of trading long term investments, which helps prevent losses insider information will help you prepare in advance for the upcoming trade reducing the risk of downtime.

Show me ONE single influencer who has fame and not infamy (that is,,, famous in a positive way) and show me one project that uses shillers and influencers that is well respected.

There are almost none.

Social media is also part of the problem because when you put a shill on Twitter or Insta, they only highlight the good comments and hide the bad ones. So newbies come and think everything is rosy.

That is exactly what my point is. I agree that it should be for fun, I do not even do predictions anymore and I just buy crypto and hold it as long as I can and consider that my investment, my only "prediction" is that I will be able to feel richer by the time I retire thanks to investing into crypto instead of other things.

This is why I feel like there is a good chance you could actually end up with a good profit thanks to this in the long run and that is it. Aside from that all other predictions are for fun but unfortunately there are too many people out there who gets fooled by all these so called influencers and they end up losing their money based on it.

The Forex market is far more volatile than the stock market, and experienced and dedicated traders can easily make profits. However, Forex also has a higher level of leverage and fewer traders tend to focus less on risk management, making it a riskier investment that can have adverse effects.

Op, do know that in the mixed of the confusion people are out there making an informed trading decision and in turned they are making good money from trading. I do see some occasion where Bitcoin is moving in a positive direction and some alternative coins are moving in the opposite direction. Do you believe it happens and it can happen, but all in all I will agree with you that Bitcoin has influence over Altcoins since is the most trusted crypto currency.
Relying on crypto currency influencer to me can lead one to lost of money as it has happened to me in the past this is because many of them are doing that just because of what their employer is paying them. Although, sometimes one can still make good profit from the coins they do promote as a result of high demand for it.

Dont know where  you do get this idea or information unless if you are just making some speculative and doesnt actually have knowledge on what forex market is all about
You should read up at least on these articles and you might realized yourself on what you are saying.
Cryptocurrency vs Forex Market – Similarities and Differences (https://finance.yahoo.com/news/cryptocurrency-vs-forex-market-similarities-073453354.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAAni5p6L4bXm7Bymh_MGXxgyTSh_gHXTwf_v5nKEr-4teiHj28IIATMP-4yfwtWDmwvkJ0LGiXHMLGTNxSsB2CxkTPZvDetuSh-yQsnun-7TmH7WysA3J9iPV6h2bP2cH3Y1h9Wlqev9QrtPxBrKd5jR1dw2GPID5NJuCrb22Nzk)

https://www.proshareng.com/news/%20BlockChain%20&%20Cryptos/Crypto-vs-Forex-Trading--Everything-You-Should-Know-Before-Your-First-Trade/58871

When it comes to volatility then nothing beats out crypto but volatility is the key on making out profits in short term basis and on fast pace manner.

You have to be active in the forex market. While in stocks, you can simply hold just like what we're doing in the crypto market. Why is it that people are saying and describing that when you have experience and other stuff, you can "easily" make money from it?
Let's say that it is true but up to what point? Even some experienced traders are struggling to make money on it especially if it's in the crypto market. The usual people that make money here are the holders and strong hands. Knowledge in other markets can be applied but it's still not giving that assurance the way we're describing it.

It's a really confusing fact I think it's a bitcoin trading and stop talking about people who were excited and excited at first and then it became important and flowed from all things and not reading time and current situation and trends.  Depending on how many of its choices flow from fellow family and business partners there are decision makers here and no other writing can be done with them.

I am already in profit now and even the lowest point of the last year and this still put me in profit,,, but I totally learned my lesson of ICO days where all the ICO coins I have now even at the highest point of last year was still way low in loss.

I guess newbies all need to lose money first to truly learn this lesson :)

It is not confusing. It is just unpredictable and it is nature for the market to goes up and down because of its supply and demand. It can be said that when the demand increases,the price in the stock market will also increase . However, if the demand is lower than the supply, the price also decreases or fall down.

We all know that the stock market keep changing everyday (flactuate). So why do you need to confuse?

ICO days have gone so we should accept the fact that we can no longer make decent amount of profits from ICOs these days. However, do not be confused with the market. Its always been unpredictable, but let's admit the fact that the market volatility is the main reason why most of us are still making unexpected profits till now. Yes, a lot of predictions have been out in the market but we are not obliged to follow them. Let's make our own market analysis that is based on facts and from our own technical and fundamental market details.

If you keep on relying from those different market analysis and predictions, you will always be confused. But if you focus on building your own market analysis, you will understand the flaws of the market, its bullish and bearish moments. The market is full of big whales and influencers, so its up to you whether to believe them or reject them. I suggest, focus on your own and continue on gaining new experiences and widen your knowledge. That way, it will make you a smart and wise investor that knows how to take advantage on the market flaws.

It is the impression of others that it's confusing. In some points, they're correct about it that it's truly confusing as they don't understand the market being unpredictable.

All of the markets are fluctuating from day to day.

And even the world market, it's also changing but it's normal to see people that find it confusing as everyone isn't informed of what's happening.

Looking at high volatility on crypto markets these days it can seem confusing. In particular looking at intraday trading data shows a lot of "noise". For traders all the price changes in the market that are not really based on fundamental data or no information is called noise. It adds nothing new to the market that confusion. That's why checking prices to often can cloud our mind and hinder our thought process. Day trading is a very hard and competitive, only very few traders can consistently outperform the market. In my opinion it's better to try and identify long term trends. If we are looking too closely it can help to widen the time line. Technical analysis is a very important tool to identify these long term trends.

Yeah, when relying on our own things, then we will get confused at possible lesser amount. Moreover, people who are following multiple different technical analysis are getting confused but at the same time traders who are following only one technical analysis and firmly sticking to it are never getting confused and they are simply exiting at target or stoploss levels without giving room to their emotions.

This is because, market price changes are influenced by different aspects but primarily due to emotions and traders psychological things never get into any mathematics hence you will find market volatility as a different one on every day which always strange and confusing to all beginners.

Tell that to all the IDO, NFT, Defi, metaverse projects that are still hot and launching every day on all those Uniswaps/Pancakeswaps/Whateverswaps,,, Still people believe tokens can x10. Aaxie youtubers were so crowded and saying x1000 by end of 2021 and now most have left quietly I guess after price crash.

Hope they got a good education at least.

We know that all altcoin depend on Bitcoin price but very less people know totally why bitcoin price go up and down.
One of the major reason of bitcoin price is   the stock market of USA
At this time bitcoin price is a looking sideways. While altcoin showing pump and dump
I think it's not a good or invest in the Altcoin
invester should wait sometime until we see clearly bullish sign of market.

In 2017 the ICO coins every time after listing got pump more than 10x and seeing that everyone began to invest in ICO but after then the trend end up because of market crash and now people invest with caution in ICO so now only those ICO get success which bring something special to get the attention of the community and only that get success in price rally.

You are wrong,,, people are not investing with more caution. No different from IDO era now or rather starting even from 2020,,, people were putting really nonsense tokens on Uni and Pancakeswap and they were even easier to pump because you could just trade/swap from your own LPs.

Today you do not even need a whitepaper anymore, people will invest in something that gives them 300x APY if they see it.

The market conditions in 2022 show that the market conditions will not be so good by 2022, because if the British do not increase by 2022, then the price of tokens will not increase.  The price of all tokens will go down a lot and these songs will have to wait a long time for the price to go up again and it will take a long time for the price to go up which seems to be

Yes you are right. I forgot the swap exchanges. There people really do not know that in what project they are putting money. On swaps they just look at the rally and take no time to become the part of it without knowing the results of that rally or the next steps of the developers.

To understand what is happening with the cryptocurrency market and what will happen next, you first need to stop blindly believing in everything that is said. This is an important mistake, since the influx of such information is aimed at distorting real events. What I mean? I'm talking about the need to look at the trend, that is, at the whole picture of what is happening in general, and not discuss and believe in each piece of news. Now it is already obvious that the world is preparing for the regulation of cryptocurrencies, which means that in any case, the market is waiting for the influx of new money, and hence the rise in prices for cryptocurrencies, however, it is very difficult to say for 100% when exactly this will happen, since the crypto market is currently very manipulative and those who have influence on him do not want the majority to have the opportunity to learn about the plans and, moreover, to make a profit. So I think that you need to carefully monitor what is happening in the market and if you sincerely believe in the future of cryptocurrencies, then try to keep your crypto assets without selling them until the next flight to the moon.

Know that once you entered the crypto market, you're in for a wild ride. Lot of investors have different says on the market and if you tolerate yourself to believe them, that's when you start seeing that the market is so confusing. And market volatility is always the top reason. However, if you know you the main reason why you invested in the first place, then you should not be confused. Focus on your own market analysis based on how you understand the market, and not how other people perceived about the market.

The market will always be confusing especially on part of the newbies. And as long as volatility stays, it will always give us reasons to be more dynamic than to be static. However, one should know all of these before entering the market. This is the reason why crypto investors should be more mentally prepared because the crypto market is full of challenges and risk and if you can't bear riding in them, you will always end up losing.

As long this market runs or works then volatility would really be always been part and talking other markets as well then these movements would be still present since this is the primary reason on why

people do really make out profits out of those price movements thats why its an important factor to consider out.Its true that this market is always been confusing and unpredictable and that what make

things more harder for us to deal with but doesnt mean that it would be impossible.Due to enough knowledge and skills we could somewhat able to bare that kind of problem.

^ Everyone will be really confused because they don't know the full function of BTC and other altcoins upon investing it.
We should not confuse about the downtrend if we know that the market is so volatile and in that way, we can earn money from other newbies sellers which are made by panic and sell. If you have trusted them you will not confuse because, in long term, there is a brighter future for sure. Because for me, confusion will become us more worst. 

Seriously am also kind of confused about the market currently I can't really advise anybody to follow any body's opinions the best thing you can do is to do your own research if you want to invest. I also heard their is currently of war in Ukraine which is really causing panic in every financial markets, so if you are investing I believe you just have to be very careful now because the market is really volatile currently.

DYOR, that's always the right thing to do, it's confusing because it's unpredictable, but that's why trading or investing in crypto is more exciting. In the end, the smart investors will survive and rip the profit because they are knowledgeable, they trust the future of crypto assets they are holding and they can earn in short-term trading.

If you are still confuse despite investing for too long, then probably ti's time to leave as you'll only lose your money.

Why are you talking about the stock market here? We are not stock market, we are crypto market.  :-\
Of course, crypto coins/tokens prices are very volatile, they are very difficult to predict. But this situation even makes us have a bigger chance to take profits. Sometimes, the prices of crypto coins/tokens can increase very significantly only in a short time. Without high volatility, we won't see a significant increase in crypto coins/tokens prices.

You are right. I have a friend who literally invested into some shitcoin IDO just recently, his own words were "I will sell as soon as it goes up", and that's it, that's all he cared about when getting into it, he didn't care about the project, he didn't care about what they were trying to do. All he cared about was being first, get whitelisted, buy as much as he could afford, see it hopefully do 10x on early periods, then get out as soon as possible.

If people keep investing this way, then they will end up losing money all the time and there is no way to get out of constant debt they are in (or loss). People need to check these projects a lot more carefully and not only care about the short term profits.

He is not the only one. Even project owners do not care about the project. It is not that I dislike all of these coins and defi and nft whatever,,, the problem is the same people running ICOs are the same ones running these projects and the buyers are the same. Funny to see defi projects now do nft games and also metaverse,,, it is one big merry go round with the same pump and dump mentality.

No person can be neutral in trading. It is either you are buying or you are selling. You buy when you are optimistic and you sell when you become pessimistic. All that depends on how price is moving and no where can price remain neutral. Staying neutral means that we believe price is not moving in any direction at all, and that will be wrong conclusion. Am optimistic.

Simply being that numb when it comes to various situations which its a must thing for someone when dealing with trading being too optimistic or pessimistic then this would really vary on the
situation and we know that not all people would really be ending up on having the same mindset thats why neither those both two could be the possible thing to have.
Market is confusing thats why you should really make yourself versatile so that you could really able to adapt on whats ahead or happening because if you dont then you would
really be having a hard time on doing it.

You will really be confused if you always let yourself influenced by others. Be more transparent and feasible. Increase your knowledge and focus on your own market analysis. As a trader, you should know in the first place what's your goal in the market so won't be confused when you see the market is heading towards against your expectations. Focus on being optimistic and always have your right attitude when dealing with the market uncertainties.

The cryptocurrency market is always like this because the cryptocurrency market does not stop at a specific place. The cryptocurrency market fluctuates within a certain set of rules. The market may be in a dilemma in the future The market could reach a better position.

The market isnt confusing per say, the crypto market has never been stable, it fluctuates between the bear and bull period and that's why it's necessary to analyse the market properly.

Maybe for beginners it's confusing, just like me for trading the first time. But once you get used to it, it gets used to it. When it comes to crypto habits, indeed in a few years I know the crypto market is constantly changing. Habits in trading are also constantly changing, nothing is the same. For those who don't want to learn then it may be very confusing.
Fluctuations in the direction of market movements make it increasingly difficult for trading to guess the direction of the market. Indeed, everyone will do an analysis to avoid mistakes, but sometimes the analysis is also not true. Therefore, there are strategies that we must arrange to minimize it.

I don’t see anything that would really be causing the confusion. If you have been around for quite a long time you should know by now that every time after the market has gone through a bullish run, there would be people who would still keep saying that the market will continue to be bullish and that there will be a second bull run to follow immediately, which is not true.


The Bull run has happened, so right now we’re in a bearish trend, which I believe would continue for a long time until the next year that Bitcoin will be halved, and as the supply shortens the demand increases, and that would lead to another new bubble which would move Bitcoin to a new all time high price.

I as well would say that the market is still bearish, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t invest now. Those of you who usually wait for the market to become bullish before you start buying are doing it all wrong, you should also try to be investing when the market is bearish and then hold it till the bull run starts.

This bearish period is usually the best time for us to start our investment, you will get to buy it at a lower rate and then you can hold it till the next bull run starts. I believe that the next uptrend is around the corner, although it wouldn’t really be anytime soon, because it should be something that would take place after we might have seen the next halving.

last year we went down below  and look at it now... Pani seller can pull out at a loss if they like,  but in a month or 2 they will be regretting it. If anything bullish news come  Also think... if Anyone pull out at a loss, what interest will  bank give  in a couple of months... absolutely nothing.

If you don't believe much in regarding on what coin you are holding or investing then you would definitely be acting like this on which you would easily panic sell whenever you do see price drops.

It is true that you would definitely regret on what you have done on the time that the market would make out some recovery which it had been always the case because come to think that
the market isn't really just moving on one path but rather having two as always whether it is going uprise or downwards although knowing on when it would happen would be
always impossible and this what makes the situation harder.

The market is unpredictable, but confusing? Maybe yes for those who are not well knowledgeable on their investments. Like investing in some new projects that you think have potentials to succeed, but later on they still failed. That makes them more confused. But for those who always have good prospects and will chose to invest in old and established coins, they are certain on their decisions because they are more focused on their goals. That makes them bigger chances to succeed in crypto.

The reason why the market is confusing because it is fluctuating. It keeps changing every hour thats why we are so confused if it is going up or down.What goes up comes down and what goes down comes up or vice versa.. After every bear comes a bull. After every bull comes a bear. And thats how the market goes..The market is so unpredictable...

Maybe some people says its confusing because they dont really understand how the market works. And it shouldnt because these markets are by their very nature. It moves up and suddenly moves down.

For those people who are planning to trade or invest, make sure that you really understand the market. You need to be knowlegeable before making an investment/trade.

At present the market is in a bit of confusion. I have been analyzing the market for some time but my confusion about the market is not ending. Even a few days ago, the bitcoin market was booming However, today the market is again below 40 thousand.

Everyone is with the same situation so some are putting and some are pulling their money. But at least everyone have trust on it for the coming time that is why it is not panic. It shows the signs that the price will be in the upper direction for long time.

It's because it's a never ending volatility.

Don't be confused with that because that's the nature of the market and all of them are going with bitcoin's volatility. Even the best that investors may think for a certain project.

It cannot skip that part of being volatile and affection of it with the market.

That believe and thought you have mentioned is what has made many scam shitcoins prosper. Those who are investing in them also have the mindset of quick rich and they eventually end up getting scammed by the team. The investors know it is a shitcoin they are investing on but still go ahead to do it with hope they be the first ones to cash out from the ponzi investment. So both the investors and the teams scamming them are the same greedy people.

Today market still make us confusing after bitcoin drop under $38,000 and still possible keep stay on lower price, not have to do except waiting bitcoin can pump again because almost assets stuck on altcoin, without bitcoin stronger and reach up to higher price little possibility to see altcoin can pump. Maybe we need hold again with several assets still loss and need recovery more than one or two months later, but I want get faster for taking my profit and keep save USDT later if market still not stable right now.

To be honest nothing has changed!
Markets have remained the same and give a different picture depending on how or what type of trader one is... And not forgetting the money makers who give false readings of what the market is about to do because they have so much influence but in the actual sense its all fake outs and manipulation for retail traders to fall in these guys traps, which translates into profit for them.

I have perused are most likely transitory and relies upon current circumstances and patterns, a few decisions I have made are affected by my associates, family and accomplices in organizations. In any case, in the event that you additionally do investigation, you should depend to your thought process is correct and exact.

One thing still stand sure about bitcoin , that it is really a volatile coin. It is highly volatile that it recovery can just be very fast than you imagine. There is no need for panic or fear and getting confused. Just do what the market is doing at the moment. Every movement is for profit for traders and gradually the price will increase again. I believe there are more positive feedback for bitcoin soon when bitcoin gets back up.

Easy to say on not to panic or fear but when you are on a situation on where you are seeing your portfolio is going down then im much sure that you would really freak out even if you are already veterans or already old into this market but that one wouldnt really be giving out assurance.

Due to unpredictability then this market is really confusing and this is why having good knowledge and skills would really be the best one to have for you to sustain this market.
Trying to have a good control of your emotions since this one would be your main enemy.

In the current scenario, all the currencies have got significantly lower prices. If you have enough money then you can invest in this market. InshaAllah you will face benefits in your future.

And before thinking about benefits, you are likely to go through a rough journey with your investment in cryptocurrencies. It's encouraging to hear someone talk about the profits and gains.
But there's also the behind scene that hasn't been seen by the people that are interested to invest. Looks easy when you're going to read and hear their stories.
In reality, they didn't go there too easy as the market always fluctuates, and just like the concern of op and many, it's confusing and the time will come that you're going to experience it like them.

The crypto market does look confusing to some people who are not knowledgeable and have no experience. Because if we study crypto properly,
we will understand that this is how the market moves, and it doesn't always match the results of our analysis. Therefore, investing or trading crypto is
very risky, so my advice is always to use cold money as capital. The reason is when the market is experiencing a decline like now we don't panic,
it must be remembered that as long as we do not sell the coins we have, we have not lost even though the coins we bought have decreased in value.
The most important thing is that we can choose potential projects, so the market goes down, there's no need to be confused, because we just need
to be patient until the market goes up again.

I believe that right now the crypto market is in a state of uncertainty. This means that different factors can influence the market, even those that you never thought about and did not know about. Probably you could notice such information that there was information that allegedly now the situation with possible hostilities between Ukraine and Russia has affected the market. If this is already allegedly affecting the crypto market, then I am sure that a likely UFO attack on the earth will also affect the crypto market, or for example solar flares, if necessary, will also be the same factor. That is, it is already on the verge of absurdity. You just need to understand that no one knows anything and no market analysis works anymore. Now the crypto market can be affected even by worsening weather, for example, it started to rain, prices fell, the sun came out, prices went up. I mean that someone is deliberately powdering our heads, but in fact, the problems are completely different, and the reason for manipulating the market can be absolutely anything now, well, so that no one guesses what will happen to the prices of cryptocurrencies tomorrow.

not only crypto But I see problems in our real world future. Due to current war  Rents and mortgage are out of control and pricing people out of market.   Rent utilities gas food etc leaving no one spending money.   Russia Ukraine.    Freedom convoy coming up.   I see a recession second half of the year unless we start getting some good news.bitcoin with with good coin will show rally but we need to hold our ckins tightly.

No doubt, there  are always earning opportunities for traders when market of bitcoin goes down or up. But all depends upon a trader that how it stands with the market. If he already ready himself from market dump then he will not get loss.
But if market is confusing then must stay away from market. Don't place any trade in market. Because in this case market will dump or pump. So, if you are opposite with the market then you will get huge loss.

The market is very confusing,and it takes only those who are determined to make profit out of it by all means to still continue trading in it.The market system is very dynamic,it changes by the day,and making sure one adapts to different changes that comes as a result.

When the market is unsteady,and one  isn't sure of the things he is doing,the best thing is to keep his head straight and always stay focus.

Focus on your plan. Don't be discouraged and disrupted when the prices are plunging if you're for holding. Victors are the ones who are determined and despite being confused with the market, they're trying to learn what's with the market and adapt it to the best that they can.
We're always been confused with things that we're not yet used to or fond of. But after learning that it's the way that we must bear together as we stay, there's a lot of growth if someone stays and managed to endure all of the negativities and pressures and confusion that it has.
Many of us have been there and done that and that's why we're telling people that they should stay and be patient.

This question is at very valid point. Market is at confusion point to everyone we can't predict whole journey of crypto these days. Very risky and dangerous everything is looking. War is going arround at present time between Russia and Ukraine, two big country of this world. Crypto regulations from worldwide sectors should come before its get too late if don't come market can be harmful at any point because if you can't accept anyting then how can you faith on it.

Many traders are not comfortable with the results they are getting from their investment currently, either to sell all their coins or keep holding them till the price move higher before the end of this year 2022. According to some researchers that predicted few days ago, that there will be  massive positive changes of some coins in the market to enable those traders that missed last year opportunity to be part of this great opportunity that is about to happen in the community. Based on what traders are experiencing in the exchange market, show that the price is not fully stable for people to start making a huge amount of money from the market.

Well, the market is really confusing but if you believe in cryptocurrencies and long-term holders then you wont think so complicated about the market right now. It's common to see when crypto gains its new ATH then it drops again because many countries banned crypto, many influential people talking bad about crypto, and other reasons made cryptocurrencies got correction and after a few years it's getting another ATH.

If I say I agree with this project I will say the only reason I should not be too optimistic or pessimistic about the market is because it is the only way I believe I can deal with the confusion in the end personally I do not have anyone  Recently bought and soon sold out not ready i.e. he already imagined maybe the current state of the market for a long time to come is very always but even then we like to play with our brains we have to take care of everything

Nothing is risk-free! The crypto market looks confusing, but can you tell was there a time without some confusion in crypto!? There's always something, new and crazy things happen all the time... but the crypto market is making progress every year! After every fall it rises again and from time to time it hits a new record! So it's either we have a clear mind and we believe and support crypto that brings many benefits in the last 10 years for people who are active, or we fall under confusion and weak hands sell in panic! Don't be confused, just clear your mind from propaganda, think it true and find something you believe in and just stack sats!

Its always been confusing

1. Market Seller and Buyer demand
2. News and Fundamentals
3. Randoms unknown movements

You couldnt able to determine on where it would be going but with due experience and learnings been gained
then you could really somewhat able to sustain.

By pure nature it is known that a speculative market is moved both by the whales, and by the different fundamentals, in the case of crypto it is also moved by the action of the law of supply and demand, as well as by emotions, I think that emotions they are the main engine to do it, if we take into account that for now there is that war environment, it is very possible that a bearish movement will occur for quite some time and this will cause many people to suffer losses if they are in bullish positions, sometimes you have to take into account take into account certain things that happen in the world and take forecasts, where what is safe is the best, that is why some people are currently very confident in the usdt because they see it as a refuge.

The war situation led to markets crashing in most countries but I see my local market improving and this only means that people are starting to get used to the news. Similar to what happened to the pandemic. It has been a rough few years but I see these are opportunities to buy at low prices which was otherwise not possible if the bull trend continued.

The market will confuse you if you are trying to understand every move. There is lack of proof here and you have to to go with that only. Not everything in the market has an explanation and searching for one is futile. Rather one should focus on how they can get in and get out with profit. For that you only need to buy low and sell high, keeping the details of the news on ignore.

Stablecoins are only an intermediary to tide over a market movement. I dont see any more use of it.

The system is always confusing, it has never been as easy as drinking water. Even when you think it is so obvious you can be very very wrong. That is how the system is created to be. It will make no much difference when you choose to be optimistic or pessimistic without having a working process. It was during the early stage of bitcoin that the movement of the market was easily predicted and it worked for many people. Ever since whales entered the market, many things that were working stopped to work and things that have not worked before has began to work.
I think the only working means to follow up the market is to pay good attention to demand and supply. For instance, when the war between Russia and Ukraine started there was fear and many people jumped out of the market, but when Russia currency started depreciating and Ukraine started recieveing donations with cryptocurrency, everyone started to join the market again and the movement changed to bullish.

If you feel that market is very confusing then don't take any entry in market. Because in this case, its a 50,50% chances of loss and profit. Sometimes the market tries to dumps but some whales of market control it, when they feel investors are buying and price is pumping. They sell off their account with big amount, it results a big dump in the market. So, be aware from these situations. Take entry when you feel its the right time to take entry.

Panic in market conditions like this is a natural thing as long as you don't panic too much.
panicking too much will get us into bigger and bigger problems and i agree with you that it is very important to do some mind refresher,
Everyone has their own way of dealing with panic

The period that the market has been bullish is already over. I get your problem, it is a normal thing that occurs every time in the market. When there is a bull run and the market reaches a new all-time high price and then faces a correction and becomes bearish, you would always see people who would keep on predicting that there is still going to be a bullish trend but which never happens. They are just making speculations that are not going to happen at all at this time.

But, it is not like this is the last time that there will be a bull run in the market, there are still going to be more to come but it is going to take some years before we see it again, just not in a hurry. Judging from how it has happened before, it is usually around four to five years for it to happen. So, let’s look forward to the next one in the few years to come.

When the market is looking confusing, it is a sign that something is going on either wrongly or rightly and that depends on who is getting the favour, at this time it may be the whales doing the manipulation. At this time around it is better to stay outside if you don't understand it or you have made first loss you can caution yourself not to keep doing same mistake.

The problem is we even don't know when the market is going to pump or dump. If the whales are responsible for the pump and dump then we need to be very sensible for where it is likely to be dumped and pumped. They also has point or area when they to sell and buy from. Mere looking at the market, making profits is never easy and we all need to analyze the market in order to make good profits whether one is trading or investing.

you mean we just look at the market without trading. In analyzing, of course, confusion is the main thing that we get, because our worries about future market conditions make it very difficult for us to decide to trade. I think this is only a small problem, we must dare to draw conclusions based on careful analysis. Talking about risk is already an obstacle before starting trading.

You would really be totally scared if you dont know on what you are doing but if you are really that prepared on what you would gonna do then you would be that confident
on dealing up with the market even though its confusing and unpredictable compared when you dont know on whats going in.There's soo much difference when it comes to
that this is why it would really be varying on personal skills and knowledge on you would  handle up the situation and its true that not all would really be that
to well on managing things but though everything could be learnt.

Market volatility is an advantage to the traders but hodlers can still buy during this point and a small fluctuation won't be a big problem for them because they are not going to sell it right away. Quick movements in the price can be risky for traders that doesn't have enough experience on how the market works.

Concentration or constant monitoring is indeed important for every traders because if they are not paying attention on the chart, they can miss a good opportunity and the moment they risk again the market will not be in favor with them. The only time for a trader to relax is when the market becomes too stable. It can come soon.

it will feel confusing for those who do not understand about market movements. but for those who are already pros in trading, of course there must be risks to be borne, just as we must dare to give up risk by placing a cutloss in accordance with the analysis we have made. that way we will assume that trading is an opportunity, and anything can happen, and after that we have to correct our analysis whether there is something that needs to be improved

The cryptocurrency market and this situation is confusing and known to those around us and one of the things that traders like and one of them is that it makes it easier for traders to skull here and there is no risk to get more profit from futures market  Can lose the maximum

why be confused? when the market is sideways as it is now, this has been anticipated by some traders,
I am sure traders will not be confused about this situation, because Bitcoin can go up and it can go down,
traders know that, this is the risk of the market when it is sideways, we have to be right really careful in taking actions and strategies.

buy now or buy when the price is a little lower for me it's the same, I see that the potential for Bitcoin price increases (new ath) this year is very large, positive news about Bitcoin continues to emerge while FUD immediately sinks. buy bitcoins below the ATH price then sell when it hits ATH or crosses it, it's not confusing.

When there is an uncertainty of this kind and you don't know what to do or what you decide to do, the best thing to do is to stay out of the market, because it is never good to invent or even worse to see trading as gambling, because that can represent the end for our money, and I think that at this moment the war that is currently taking place between Ukraine and Russia can continue to escalate to very high levels, so much so that many people are scared, because Russia threatened with deterrence forces and that will affect the world In its entirety, this is serious business and should not be missed.

Speaking up with some reading of sentiments then we should really be that ready whether it would really be having some effects or not on the entire market as for speaking with
the market of being confusing then of course it isthats why its really unpredictable and would really result into bad movements or decisions that had been made on a certain individual
Some do just connects out external evens and make some basis and some doesnt really care nor mind out at all and also if  there are no news and events then we do
in default on making use of technical indicators.

There are many traders who analyze the technical aspects and walk the market depending on the technical aspects.There are some people who analyze the market and invest by judging themselves. These two types of people can be seen in the book market.When the market goes down a bit, there is a lot of confusion for those who can't do this message.If the market is well analyzed and some investment is made then the confusion will be lessened and people will not suffer so much loss.We will not neglect the technical aspects.

One valuable lesson I have learned about crypto market is nobody knows or can predict a shit about crypto. All the past predictions of so many so called gurus have not only go wrong but "way too wrong". But I think they are pretty good at telling wrong information. So yeah market is confusing along with so called experts.

Predicting Bitcoin's price is very tricky. This is so because its price is based off of several economic factors from supply and demand, to public sentiment, to the news cycle, and market events, scarcity, and more. As at November 2021, so many  Bitcoin analysts predicted (https://time.com/nextadvisor/investing/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-price-predictions/)  that in the price to be up to $100,000 in Q1 2022 but here we are in the Q2 and it's not even half the price predicted. For me, just being neutral is good for my peace of mind. However, it doesn't mean that I am pessimistic.

At first I was confused by the market situation. because at that time still relying on other people's analysis. but after I learned on my own and followed the example of my seniors. it turns out the market analysis is not surprising. what is surprising is when we cannot analyze and still rely on the analysis of other people. and Analysis of several people turned out to be different. well that would be astonishing. but when we ourselves have learned analysis, when we look at the analysis of others, we can take it and combine it with our own analysis. and it worked fine.

and there is a beginner learning scalper (short term trading). however he reads a chart with 4 hour and 1 day candles. then it will be a little difficult because the analysis for my own scalper uses 1, 15 minutes to get stuck in 4 hours. then the analysis will be more appropriate for the short term. and it won't be surprising.

its really complicated to predict bitcoin price, since its influenced by many factors. market manipulation and other factors such as geopolitical and macro economic be obstacle for bitcoin price movement. alot good news spreaded but the fact price still steady around 40K. legal tender, mass adoption wasnt enough to drive bitcoin. but for long term , its still optimism will able to create new ath.

analysis is just a prediction of the bitcoin market reaction, of course everyone may have a different basis of analysis, depending on their own point of view. even though technical analysis has been carried out properly, sometimes fundamentally or news that occurs can have a significant influence on price movements. therefore it is necessary to have a stop loss to regulate our loss level, and we streamline our thinking in trading after analyzing, namely profit or loss

In crypto we all realize that be it good or bad news it really affects the market,
so it is very necessary to do technical analysis and fundamental analysis is important,
everyone has their own benchmark in determining stop loss

Much confusing at the moment. It is not going to be a comfortable way to buy any coin in this market.In other words, you have to invest short time. There is a lot of damage if you keep it for a long time.In this embarrassing market Nothing is going to succeed. However, if the market is normal, it will be much better.

Yeah, I would say the same that still wait for some signals if ever bitcoin get to drop some more or get to pump a bit. It's on a zone that we have to wait for some more movement before taking actions whether to buy or sell, if you're a trader.
But if you're a long term holder, there's no need for us to be worried about because we've been into swinging of the market for a long time and always get to witness this happens.

The market will remain confusing  if there is no backup trading technique.  The simplest  technical  skill is enough to interpret  the market direction.  Following  market  analyst can be frustrating  and dangerous  at the same time because most of them are paid adverst just to hype a coin and once it pumps the close the project and watch it dump.  Pay attention  to your own analysis  and keep developing  on it

from the beginning of 2022, bitcoin has moved between the price of $35k - $45k, as if that area is a defense area that later we don't know if the price will go up or down again, because until now ranging is still happening. it is true for traders at this time if buying is of course for the short term, after making a profit and then throwing it away, and there are still many other traders who are patient waiting for the price reaction whether to breakout up or breakout down, so they wait for the trend to occur

There is no time that the market is going to be comfortable for you to buy a coin and thinking that to happen always will not happen. What I understand with market is that there are bull and bear season and those times are best times to buy but basically there are no permanent times for it, the market is not going to be steady so don't wait for a steady time for market.

It's the support area of bitcoin and that's good. The perspective of many right now does only look and bases it on the ATH price but doesn't look at how the market is doing stably.
And for those traders, they're being careful if they're waiting for a certain pattern that they seem to know because that's how they read the charts and it's effective for them to follow what they know.

The market is a complex concept. You need to be prepared for this in order to understand how to act correctly in a given situation.

It is complex only if you make it so and humans are good at doing that. ::)

You dont need to act at every situation, that is the point. You only need to act when the market is moving in the direction you intend it to go, like going down when you are going to buy - at that time if it inching up again, you dont need to do anything. These movements should not bother the professional trader, because they know that many buyers and sellers make the market too complex for themselves with such trades.

If your goal is simple, that is to buy low and sell high, seeing a movement in the opposite direction of your order should not produce impulses in your mind. Rather see if the opposite order is worth performing, like selling some well already having buy orders at lower price.

The market is very confusing at the moment.No results can be obtained by analyzing this random market well.Cryptocurrency trading platforms show that in most cases people are falling into losses.People are trying to stay away from trading in confusing markets. If the market moves into a stable then trading can be very fun and profitable.

if wouldn't happen if we know and how face to market movement. alot of us only follow their emotion , and not trade properly as suitable the rules in market. most of traders even didnt how to identy market trend and this condition will make them confuse to enter market.

Once you do make yourself able to gain much experience then you would able to handle out

1. Emotional aspect
2. Technical indications and able to determine the right spot.

Even though it would end up on 100% precision but at least we are really that aware on how this market behaves.
Yes, its unpredictable and random but its not impossible for someone to sustain or survive.It all matters on the effort
and risk taking you are making.

It is not as simple as you describe.
Everyone knows that the basic principle is 'buy at a low price, sell at a higher price'.
Sometimes, when there is a big FUD, this basic principle cannot work. When we panic, we only focus on how to secure our money. And for the person who doesn't want to lose all their money, the immediately to do cutloss. This action sometimes is taken without full awareness, it is just spontaneous action.

it is the result of our panic to face fud. when our psychology is disturbed, then common sense can no longer work, so that the decisions taken are often wrong steps. therefore our mentality must be maintained so that the mind remains cool, and even though there is fud we remain calm and even buy again to get a bigger profit, cutloss may be an option, but if we are trading, while for investment purposes, I think holding on to it is the best choice

Psychology + Emotion should really be in harmony so that you wont really be making  yourself ending up on having bad decisions because you do make yourself that way too reactive in events that do happen in  the

market even though i could say that this wont really be that easy to handle out even you do have experience or being aware on how thing goes here on this market.Its always been confusing since from the start.

There's no way that you could make out 100% precision with your analysis but somewhat it isnt something that could be also impossible on which you could handle it out
if you are really have the right factors and capabilities.

The shortcut to it is to control your emotion when you trade.

If you can't handle yourself with that, you better stop and relax because it will be the reason why you might trade in losses. Because of what you're thinking and you can't handle it.

Do not decide for yourself as you trade when you can't think well and that includes panic.

the emotions will always be there once you are in trading. but you need to compose yourself so as to avoid unnecessary moves that you will regret. before anything else, you need to know what's your goal for a particular day of your trading. make your targets achievable so you are not expecting too much. if you happen to achieve your targets then stop and contemplate if you can still push thru or just call it a day. in most cases, greed is the reason why you will fail in your ventures.

Those traders that are making it a call day, they're forgetting to call the day in.

Because they want to achieve more and it's normal to see people that want to have more when they're done. It's true that greed is the reason why they feel that.

And they're increasing their own standard and due to it, they're feeling that it's not yet enough even if they do it.

this month we see bitcoin or altcoin price movements are very aggressive and very surprising. but it is understandable now will soon enter the day of celebration for Muslims. and it is common for crypto prices to fall. because many withdraw their money from trading to use. so get ready the market will be more aggressive and astonishing if we don't unify the price movement itself.

The market is always difficult to guess so that it makes us confused, when the market and positive market is very strong but instead prices fall and this is common, this is what makes us have to always be active to follow the latest developments to be able to get maximum profit.

It is noticed that the current BTC market is between 38k to 42K. At this stage it can be rise up or have the possibility to go down. If I look down it can go up to 30K or below. However, if the Current Market would be 30-32k then certainly it would be said that the Bull Run will appear soon for these reasons market is in a lot of confusions. However, this situation is likely to change very soon.

You don't have to get the maximum profit because you should just have to make yourself comfortable with the gains that you'll get.

It's about how you're going to make yourself better on the confusing market and take time to make your gains because that's the difficult part.

You may aim for the maximum profit but sometimes it won't be fulfilled due to the market behavior.

The idea of getting the maximum profit is a clear indication of greed and one needs to check him or herself when this element or factor to a trade is found in them as a trader. It makes you want to go for everything and not see the risk that is associated with certain moves and formations in the market.
All you want to do is ensure you've got a running trade so, you never get to loose out whatever move that comes in the market but instead, you not loose on the moves but you loose your funds to the moves.

Ther have to be a risk management plan in place and one has to ensure you don't over leverage yourself and over trade. It's bad!

It's okay to think of that if you really can. But I've come to realize that the more you think of "maximum" profit, the harder you'll get there.

Because there's always an endless potential to the market to mature and you may not meet your ends and standards with that expectations.

That's why it's better to end with a profit that it may not be the maximum but, you're very much satisfied with it.

No doubt it is confusing. It's the more reason why people ought to know what it is they're getting into before taking such a risk. In truth can we really say we know vividly how the market works? No. It's even more confusing when we happen to get signal from different sources that contradict each other. The fact that it is confusing is also an opportunity to get to understand it more as it makes the curious ones to vest more interest in  how the crypto market works

It's really true don't say about market because the market is confusing.I bought coins when I saw the market down.When the market is very down that's in time i think then coins can be bought and sold at a higher price.I always follow this trick but right now i understand that's not right way because follow these tricks I have always lost.so this is very confusing when the buy coin red candle or green candle?    

When buying then always consider on getting in before each red candle wick but take note that there would be lots of considerations first before you would need to consider before you do make out such step.
You cant just buy just because you do see red candle considering the price do really always move out in between buyers and sellers which its really that understandable that
activity or volume would really just be too moving which is something not really new.Market is indeed confusing on which if you arent really that good on handling it out then you would really
be having a hard time.

The word confusing fits to the crypto space because the market itself is very unpredictable.
When trading, we are just playing the big guessing game, of course with our basis it will make us confident with our decision on choosing our own prediction, however, we can also be wrong, that's why there's a risk of losing our money when investing.

One thing is certain (based on trends), when the market is at bearish mode, that's the time to buy.

It should be noted that the panic induced by the FUD is something that has always affected many people, since the fear that the investment is going to sink is latent, that is why you have to have certain arguments to recognize when there is FUD and when they do manipulation through news and certain information, sometimes the same whales infuse FUD because they want the weak hands to sell cheap and they buy cheap, getting more BTC.

These traps are very common, in my personal opinion, it is always good to do our analysis without seeing the news, just do our analysis, reach a conclusion and then if we see the news to see how many articles or with how many traders our decision coincides, I think that is a way of operating that is not so wrong, of course right now what can change everything is the fundamentals of Covid-19, but the most influential is the Russia-Ukraine war.

When it's low, you don't have to sell. But if you sell and you think that you're in profit whether the price is low, that's because you might have bought it when it was lower.
Mostly, if you're going to sell at low prices, you're showing an indication that you're in panic and that's why you really shouldn't do that unless it's necessary for you to sell.

That's a problem if you don't understand the behaviour of the market, if we are here because we think that bitcoin will always rise or crypto market will always be bullish, then we are being unrealistic because that's not the nature of the market, there's no volatility in that case.

The price will dump = normal
The price will rise = normal.

All you need is timing but you cannot do it effectively if you don't educate yourself first.

It's hard to put bearish bottom. Sometimes I feel still afraid if the bearish has not touched the support that I usually take by drawing the Fibo line. Although technical sometimes does not apply because whale wants another. Buy when bearish and don't know where that support will harm. But I understand everyone has their way of being taken easy and making a profit. Mngkin other techniques can be done by buying gradually, done with a quarter of your funds, although if later the profit will not be maximized but it saves your assets from a worse happiness. 

There are a number of reasons why the demand for cryptocurrency is increasing day by day in the present age, which has brought fame not only at the personal but also at the institutional level.

There are several reasons for this. It cannot be predicted. More volatile. It can make you rich and poor in a short time. So there is always confusion here. For example, certainly no one can say whether the price of BTC will go down further or will go up again.

We accept the fact that the market will always be swaying around, at all times! And those that can't still get the behavior of bitcoin, they're going to make themselves understand it through experience. Just as now, it's dipping and many have been surprised although, it's truly disappointing but this is how it goes. But, to take this dip, reverse it and it shall come soon yet we don't know when. And whenever it comes, you should have packed yourself already and did something like buying some coins while they're cheap.

Determining bearish and bullish is something not really that hard i would say but the main question that boggles up your mind is on that where is the possible bottom or peak price?
This had been the most common question on where traders/investors does really have because you cant really be sure on where it would be going.
Even though this is really totally unpredictable but with the proper tools or indicators or fundamentals then we do have at least chance on baring the risk that it do have.
Its not an assurance but its more better rather than on making pure random guess.

Now is the time to bagged as much coins as possible because the market is in a serious dump. The market is currently confusing and is very risky to enter the market now that it is in Dip. This period, lots of USDT and accounts will get liquidated because traders who don't learn about the market before investing will be losing now due to their greediness and impatience to open and hold a position. The market is complicated and always wait for the right time to enter, it might dump on you if you enter at the wrong time.

you predicted it right bitcoin is about to break the 30$ and is already spreading panic around, everyone is concerned about their fund and most are frustrated because they are already running at loss. I hope they can be patient to witness the bullish trend and see bitcoin go over 60$

The market is currently in such a position that everyone is very confused. Seeing such a position in the market, no one is able to analyze anything well.In this embarrassing situation, no one can say exactly where the market will go and people are afraid to invest.Currently we are seeing some coins that have been dumped the most. Terra Luna is one of them.Bitcoin currently stands at 28k. In such a situation people are not much embarrassed in the market.

At this time and for a long time I have been out of the market for not knowing how to understand the movements, I prefer to be out so as not to lose, and the reason is very simple, there are many fundamentals, covid-19 and the war between RUSSIA and UKRAINE This really curbs all the desire of any investor to put their money in any currency, because fear is a feeling that cannot be controlled, the idea of losing money nobody likes, it is for this reason that I do not know what to do, I don't want to start inventing or gambling in trading.

There is no reason to panic but the reason we have to face here is that we have to solve all the problems ourselves but there are comments when common sense can no longer work so the decisions here are almost wrong  But you have to keep the mentality here as long as you have a cool head, but I think it's better to keep a cool head here.You can never be greedy here, people will lose themselves here and if you heat your head here, you will see that everything will end.

Every body really need to understand the cycles of the longer term market. This will free you from the shorter term market volatility which, if you follow, will lead you to making rash decisions like buying and selling because of fear and greed.
Trend lines, support and resistance and a couple of momentum indicators is all you need to be able to buy and sell the big moves from year to year
Also, patience is one of the main ingredients to success.

The market is in a very embarrassing situation at the moment. Nothing in the market is going to be analyzed properly. People are getting very annoyed with the way the market is getting chaotic every day.People are not able to trade properly in this random market and people are afraid to invest. If the market is stable in a certain place, a trust will be created among the people.We all want this confusing market to end very soon

If you don't want to be upset, just accept the current situation as it has happened in the past already. We as investors will have to see the process, now that we are in a bear market, instead of complaining, just look for the opportunity to make this situation a positive one, I'm talking about buying the dip to prepare for the upcoming recovery, and with that, even in a short period of time, you'll be able to sell at a profit.

It's not really embarrassing if you see it positively.

The ones who are complaining are the ones who dont have sufficient experience or awareness in the market but of those people who had been here for a year or couple then wont really be having that kind

of same reaction towards price movement or unpredictability of the market.Yes its confusing but doesnt mean that you cant really see opportunities for you to make profits.

If you do just know on how to go with the flow then you wont really be making yourself get that stressed that much.

When people are complaining that means they are not aware of the bear market, they only see the market as a bullish one where they can invest and make money anytime. That's not the real nature of crypto, in fact, crypto has died many times but it never fails us to recover, therefore we should not panic at the current situation as it will certainly recover after this big fall, it's just temporary.

Markets are sometimes regulated in a way that makes it difficult for various analysts to analyze.We have seen that the market is sometimes dumped in such a way that all the investors get very frustrated.It is not clear exactly what position the market will take next.

yeah that's right. and here the whales have an important role in controlling the market. even yesterday when I analyzed with my friends about the bitcoin market which showed positive signs it would be bullish analytically, it turned out that when the price really started to rise and indeed, large selling transactions reappeared so that bitcoin fell back to 29k. but there is a solution to overcome this is to follow the movement of the whales. Analysts I know apply it a lot and also combine it with their analysis. because the whales transactions can be monitored with one of the bots on telegram such as whalebotalert (https://t.me/whalebotalerts) . every big transaction will get a notification in the bot. although the whales still always use trick tricks. but at least this bot helps see the movement of the whales' transactions. like when btc is going down it will be preceded by many transactions sending BTC from personal wallets to exchanges and followed by sending lots of USDT (other stablecoins too) to exchanges from personal wallets (used to raise the price of btc first before the whales then sell btc sent earlier).

To be honest, the market is really in a difficult position right now. Although, in general - when was it easy to trade? It always required certain skills and knowledge.

The price can always crash deep further, including during a bearish market. It's out of our control and forecast skills. But at some point you have to set your enter point, even knowing this harsh reality, otherwise you won't thrive in crypto market. To not get disappointed I think about those people who bought BTC during its ATH in 2017 and have seen their investments crashing to the bottom, although they didn't lose hope. Instead, they just kept holding with patience and assurance someday bitcoin would overcome that bear market. And that is exactly what happened.

From an ATH of almost 20,000$, to 3000$ in 2018, to the impressive ATH of 70,000$ last year.

Expect the unexpected so that you wont really be making yourself get that frustrated on how this market moves and if we've been here on this place for years then these movements arent something new to us.

So wherever we do see some drips or declines then we would really be having that common reaction which do mostly freak out or hesitated on making out some buyback position.
There are people whom do see these things to be the best time for them to accumulate which is something true because the market couldnt really be just having
a one way in  regarding with movement into the price.

It's easy to trade when you're prepared for both outcomes. You know what you're doing and there's a sense of responsibility for each of your actions.
Yeah, it does requires skills and knowledge, and do not forget the experience that also plays an important part as you trade. Combining all of them will make trading easy for you but, if it's not really for you then you have the choice to remain as an investor.

You are correct, i believe in you, i always keep my computer open to check the price of Bitcoin. We doesn't know what will happen in the next week. Altcoin price usually varies with Bitcoin price. So, most of the time if bitcoin price increase usually altcoins follows as well.

Depends on what kind of trader you are whether going for long term or would be preferably doing short/swing/trend type of behavior.Market had been confusing since from the beginning
and considering the volume and volatility then this isnt something that you could handle it well.
With due experience and awareness on how this market behaves then you would really be able to create different possible actions or plans ahead and that would really be
varying on someones knowledge and skills which do really differ into each person.

I think, those that understood how crypto market move will know that we are in bearish season where both long term traders and short term traders continue holding till bullish season appear in the market before they can sell to make a passive income. Don't forget that crypto market price is unpredictable which it can pump for people to  sell at the moment to make a good profit and it can also dump for people to use the opportunity to buy and hold for the price to move higher before they can sell to make a good profit. Don't be confused about the bear market because the price is preparing to increase higher for people to smile again in the market.

I take the example for the current market, when the candles are ranging and I think the price is already very low, on the other hand the price has touched a strong support area so with full confidence the bear season will end soon, but in fact the price is currently in the $28k range , of course this broke my belief, will the price go down again, and look for support below it again, maybe I should learn more

You'll eventually learn more from your experience as trading in crypto cannot be relied upon on reading the chart, there are plenty of factors to consider, like the news ,the hype, and the FUD, you need to understand how people will react on a given information so you'll be able to make a timely and right decision.

If everything is combined it will make trading easier. But it's a difficult thing for everyone to do because the level of psychology can't really be regulated. Psychology will affect the final result of a strategy that has been made from scratch.
An experience will also have a good impact, it can press psychology to stay positive and believe in the initial strategy that was carried out. which of course also has to know what type of trading is suitable for you, long term, medium, or short term or also a wing trader.

I myself prefer to be more patient waiting for the bearish trend to end before re-entering with a big investment. although I still buy bit by bit at the current low for the long term (DCA). but I do not dare to take the risk to buy a lot. but I myself as a scalper (day trader) is not too affected by current market conditions. because indeed I enter and exit on the same day (daily traders). I just have to keep going with the flow and take profit little by little.

The market is only confusing when we can saw bitcoin price drops drastically, if the market is green everyone is happy and no questioning of the price no one will confuse and enjoy the earnings, but if the market is full of red or bear market everyone start complaining and confused with the price even if most of the expert says its time to buy but everyone seems still confuse and always have a doubt to buy because they afraid that they will going to lose if there is a long bear market that is called greed. So i think buying is best at this point of time we need to start buying before its too late again.

What is going to be noticed here is that the ones from Kipta which are bad with space because if you only guess when chatting here in the market then but here here that itself Because of the choice of predictions in this regard, but what is decided here will bring around, but what can be wrong here, so what to do when begging here, but what will be the meaning, but based on the same thing here when the market is very low.  It is thought to be a good idea to buy and keep something else, but it would not be right to take risks here

Nope,it's confusing on every aspect or everytime you do make out such action whether you do buy or sell on particular price condition and since the price movement is unpredictable then you would always hesitate whenever on what action you would really be making.Its up to someone whether they do make out some action basing with their own analysis and skills and this will depend or differ on each and everyone.

Market is/was bearish and i saw a lot of panic posts! This is my mantra: Buy when others fear sell when others gear!! Basically don't panic and HODL and just forget you ever invested. I am bullish in my portfolio but i also have few assets which are down sinec past few months, doesn't mean i will sell it for loss. I am in it for a long haul and invested which i was willing to loose. If you did the same than you shouldn't be panicking - just sit back relax and enjoy away the bumpy ride.

In fact, the market is a reflection of events that take place in life. It should be understood that the result of such changes in the market is exactly what happens in life.

Past events repeats itself but sometimes it never comes in exactly the same form there must always be a slight variation from the previous trend. Different factors affect the market direction, If we relate what happens in the market to what happens in life it can be misleading in a way because both operate on two different environment

The crypto market is always speculative. Here assumptions are not always correct, which is not possible. So in this speculative market you always have to invest in Confusion. Knowledge and experience help you to survive in the market.

We cannot blame the current market now. It is indeed very deceiving as the chart might look bullish then after few hours it look bearish. The reason behind this is because the bulls and bears are fighting against the Bitcoin price. People are buying crypto and others shorting it.

Personally I am still bearish with Bitcoin. I am expecting BTC to hit 24k, then 40k, then drop to 18k or may be 10k, then bull run to $250k.

it's like a jump too high for bitcoin's current situation. I see the current situation of Bitcoin has been repeated several times. movement up slightly then corrected. after stability, there will be another increase and then corrected again.
no need to be confused by the current situation. just set orders for decrease and increase if you want to trade. if you want to invest, I don't think the market situation will affect you much. most importantly you are firm in the investment made.

Oh gawd bitcub.. you are quite the bear.

I agree with you that there can be quite a bit of confusion when there are various battles going on, and then we have to attempt to assess which side is going to win the short-term battles and also to consider where the longer term trends might end up taking us, even if there might be some extreme fleshings/flushing out of weak hands in the shorter-term periods.

It seems to me that you should be careful when you are presuming that the bearwhales would be able to force bitcoin prices down to such extreme levels .. especially when you are talking $18k or $10k...   The revisiting of $24k and even touching upon or going below the 200-week moving average (which is currently at $22k) are surely reasonable price points that BTC could touch upon or even get forced to stay down at those levels for a longer period of time than HODLers would prefer, but it seems that you are going to need some pretty dire circumstances if you believe that the BTC price is going to go below the 200-week moving average for any kind of meaningful amount of time and/or to even go substantially below the 200-week moving average especially if you also account for the relatively smaller level of BTC's blow off top this time around, if we are considering $69k in early November 2021 as our current blow-off top..and it is even hard to attribute that as being a "blow-off top" since it was nearly reached in April 2021 when the BTC prices reached $64,895.

Sure, anything is possible, but we need to be considering various fundamental aspects of bitcoin's historical bottoms if we are considering that those kinds of numbers that go way below the 200-week moving average are really possible/probable - even if the talk about outrageously negative macro-economic circumstances (including the fall of fiat) could be within that mix that could end up serving as a black swan like event.. and even given all of that, would we be presuming too much to consider that bitcoin is going to go down that far?

Oh yeah, another potentially BIG dynamic includes the purging of froth from the various shitcoins, including but not limited to ethereum, the various meme coins and NFTs and Defi, and sure there is plenty to purge, so surely it would not be clear if those purgenings or even if they keep on deceiving people that they are value (and pump with bitcoin), that they are going to drag bitcoin down to sub 200-week moving average prices or even be able to contribute towards causing bitcoin to stay below the 200-week moving average, even if it were to be able to be drug below that line for any kind of meaningful amount of price quantity or time.

You're right about not blaming the market because the current market trend is something that always happened and I believe crypto investors ought to be prepared for it ever since the Bitcoin halving bullish started because after it is a market correction and when the market is in the correction no prediction can justify the market next momentum.
Concerning the Bitcoin market to downtrend to $24K it is hard to tell the bottom price of the market but the bearish is not yet over.

The market has always been difficult. In general, relying on a simple way to earn money is rather naive. In this case, many traders would have earned this way a long time ago.

The market can definitely be confusing. I think most people were expecting a higher BTC price right now. It’s generally hard to predict when the fluctuations will hit and how bad they will be. For example, I was pretty convinced that after all the government overspending during the pandemic and the war in Ukraine we may head into a recession.

I suppose I was correct in seeing that the market was due for a correction but I just didn’t see when it would happen. It’s also hard to predict when the market will pick back up but rest assured it always does and Bitcoin value will rise with it.

That's true and even after doing the analysis it's also not a guarantee to be able to know when the market can bounce back,
of course there are many factors that influence it all and it might be wiser to stay abreast of the news and developments,
maybe it's just a matter of time to see Bitcoin rise again and we'll see

because the most widely done is technical analysis. everything we see is based on what the tool shows. and about the news, we rarely follow developments.

when the market is down, we don't need to be confused. those who have been trading crypto for a long time see fluctuations in the crypto market as an opportunity to make a profit.
will be a little confusing and even make us hesitate to start investing. but for bitcoin assets, when there is a decline, no one will hesitate to buy them. because everyone believes bitcoin will get another pump in the future.

The dollar is still on the front foot with the market attention fixated on the possibility of the Fed delivering more aggressive rate hikes. Waller’s comments are still fresh for traders to digest. He said the U.S. Federal Reserve should be prepared to raise interest rates by 50 bps at every meeting from now on until inflation is decisively curbed. U.S. 10-year Treasury yield jumped back to 2.866%. 🚀
 
Elsewhere, the Aussie jumped on a strong GDP print on. Australia’s economy expanded by 0.8% YoY, higher than forecast for a 0.7% rise 📉, bolstering the case for the central bank to keep raising interest rates. The RBA is likely to reinforce its hawkish stance and deliver more rate hikes. The ADP and NFP will also be closely scrutinized by traders, if the job market reports show no signs of easing, this might support the dollar and further cap the upside for the euro and yen, as well as
the gold.

Technicals would really be the most common tools which could really make use into this market specially when you do make out some trading because not all the times it would really be showing or there

are events or situations where fundamentals do really happen around thats why people would really be making use of those typical indicators which could help at least and letting them know on whats

the current situation or patterns that they could possibly see but we know that it was never been precise if you do ask me but at least we do try.

I doubt that it helps towards attempting to clear up the confusion if any of us actually believes that bitcoin's price movements are actually correlated with the overall market or with the stock market or with the NASDAQ and variations of those superficial theories.

In other words, many of us need to figure out that bitcoin is a different kind of asset that is not fucking correlated with the stock market - even if so many folks wish that you consider it the same thing and to get confused about it. 

People all over are saying that bitcoin is correlated with the stock market and they have all kinds of data to show it.. blah blah blah... baloney.

If you are able to zoom out, you will see that bitcoin is not correlated with the stock market - except on short time horizons.

So, yeah, I will concede that bitcoin prices are correlated to the stock market on short time horizons, but you better fucking be in bitcoin during those periods when it is not correlated because over the years there are a large number of times that bitcoin has done a wee bit of a step up  and then goes back to correlation.. so what's the point.. bitcoin is correlated except for those short periods when it is not, and if you are not in bitcoin during those times when it is not, you are going to get fucked (or at least not end up having had been able to profit during those short periods of non-correlation). 

Do I need to point out all the periods of non-correlation in comparing bitcoin to other assets (whether the stock market or anything else)?  Look at September 2020 to April 2021.  Or better yet, look at the bottom of the March 2020 liquidation event until April 2021.  Does that look correlated?  If you say that it does, you deserve to be slapped.  There are quite a few other times in bitcoin's history that you are going to see similar kinds of non-correlation - so distinctions that make a difference. 

By the way, some folks will proclaim some nonsense like bitcoin might move more from time to time, but it ONLY goes up when the stock market goes up.  Maybe that is true, maybe not.. I could hardly give less than two shits. If the BTC price goes up 15x  in a year, and the stock market goes up 50%.. should we be considering those two to be both going up together and does it help us out to recognize that fact?  The fact is that we should recognize that we better have some stake in bitcoin because it is not as correlated as people frequently describe (or imply) it to be.

Another thing is that we cannot really know when BTC is going to have some short periods of price step up, so on an individual level it remains a good practice to have some healthy portion in your investment portfolio... and sure there are no guarantees, but bitcoin remains an asymmetric bet to the upside. 

Of course, if we want to be confused we can throw shitcoins into our analysis too... and to me, it seems best to keep your shitcoin allocation very very low especially because any of them can end up getting rug pulled at any time, even if you have all kind of confidence in x, y or z shitcoin/project/nft...   But hey if you are studying all of those topics of how various shitcoins perform as compared to bitcoin, those are other reasons to become confused and to lose sight of the prize which is obviously king daddy.


For sure, if you do not know exactly what is going on or how long the negative situation will last, those are all justifications to continue to DCA (dollar cost average) into bitcoin.  So continue to accumulate bitcoin whether you are looking at a 4-10 year timeline or longer, and whether you are attempting to be somewhat aggressive in your BTC accumulation or you have already reached pretty decently high BTC accumulation target levels.

If you are not sure if you have enough BTC, then maybe it would be a good idea to continue to accumulate - perhaps lower levels of DCA while you figure it out... You can supplement DCA by buying on dips and lump sum investing too... and if you do not have that much cashflow, then $10 per week may suffice.. but it seems that aiming for $100 per week or more would be a better practice for anyone who is able to accomplish that....

If you spend years accumulating bitcoin.. .maybe 4-10 years or maybe more.. then perhaps some of these matters will become a wee bit more clear..., such as what is the market doing.. blah blah blah..  instead of confusing.  Having some kind of focus on BTC accumulation should help to at least provide more options  - and maybe less needs or desires to figure out how the various other inferior products compare to each other and how various monetary policies and ongoing shenanigans are affecting x, y or z asset - when we should at least recognize and appreciate what is the best and strongest asset and likely to continue to be the best and strongest asset, even if there might be some ambiguities in the shorter timeframes... but if you are in long enough 4-10 years or more, and if you have been sufficiently accumulating BTC during that time, you likely will have some kinds of clarity in terms of what is the likely better (or perhaps best) personal solution rather than trying to figure out problems and markets that are likely made confusing on purpose.

Market is very confusing but at the end winner will be also those who stand boldly and didn't panic sell. I wonder why people Why sell at loss. They can do is buy more at the lowest thats the only way one can get their loses back and you will never lose until you sell  but i guess.

I don't like this kind of market when it's already "already obvious" to everyone that we're breaking through $28k and going lower at $20/18k. Usually at times like this we can make a nice bounce all the way up to $40k and only then go lower.

Today USD MARKET ANALYSIS

 DXY climbed higher to 102.54 on Thursday morning, as the market attention goes back to the possibility of central banks delivering more aggressive rate hikes ahead. U.S. 10-year Treasury yield jumped further to 2.913%. The latest data showed U.S. manufacturing activity had picked up in May as demand  for  goods  remained  strong,  which  could  relieve  fears  of  an  imminent  recession. 

🇺🇸 U.S.  job  openings  also  remained  at  high  levels.  Federal Reserve officials from both the hawkish and dovish wings of the US central bank confirmed their determination to raise interest rates, even as business contacts report US economic growth shifting into a lower gear. This week, the upcoming US jobs data on Friday will be crucial for markets. Forecasts
point to another solid report overall, with nonfarm payrolls expected at 350k in May and the unemployment rate forecast to drop a little further. Wage growth is expected to remain healthy. 🚀
The dollar might be able to pare back some losses if the data prints show the labour market remains tight.

I mean, for me it's an obvious bear market already but things could change easily, that's why the market is very unpredictable. However, entering a short trade have much higher chance of making profits than going long for a trade. Buying in every dip is a good action also, it ain't that bad to buy at $28,000 then wait for it to hit $40K-$50K again if it's gonna happen this year.

Good idea, but the question is, are you willing to hold and won't panic if the price will dump again?

I know the crypto has dipped already, however, the market is very unpredictable, who knows, there might be more dips coming.
Take the opportunity to buy, don't look back and just hold with confidence, I think that's the smart thing to do.

It's obvious that the future is not obvious.

The market has always been like this. In general, I was always surprised and rather even infuriated when they said "you don't do anything, you earn money just sitting at the computer." Nobody thinks it's easy.

Looking back is something that cant really be easily resisted on which we would really be that mindful in our entry point and on the time that the price had decline or goes down even more then you would surely regret

that you should have waited but if the price had gone up the you would be saying to yourself that it was a good call on making such step.Market is never been predictable in the first place which means about being

confusing is really attached to it since from the start because if this one talks about easy prediction then all of us would be rich already.

I don't want to upset you, but it probably won't help. It should be understood that most likely this will not work, and your message will be deleted as spam.

But, who says that analysis are a guaranteed way to know where the price will head? It's always said to us that cryptos are not predictable. There are analyses but they are only used to enhance our prediction. News and developments are however more guaranteed than just staring at the chart and analyzing but you gotta make sure that the news that you saw are legit and not hoax. Same when there is a news or posts about the coin's development, we need to confirm things first so that we can't do the wrong move which can only makes us lose or delayed our chances of earning a profit.

Btc has been this low for a long time so you might be right with that.

LOL, if everyone were rich, who would go to the crypto market to invest and trade?  :D

we must be aware, that in trading we can profit and also lose. the crypto market has unique fluctuations. unlike any other investment market. then some people get caught up in the words to get rich quickly in the crypto market.
I'm sure nothing is confusing. if you have studied this market well. we will know where the opportunity for us to profit.
everyone can predict and speculate. but the decision is in our own hands.

Even talking into traditional investments that we do have that confusing market and we are all here on dealing with it on possible profit making which means it is really just a chance for you to do so.
If you dont do well then you would definitely losing it up thats why you should really be mindful in regarding your actions because this is something that cant be handled well.
Market is indeed confusing and it does have that behavior where it could move on a random way without following any fundamentals or even on technicals
which you could really say up that this isnt something that easy to deal off with.

I agree with your overall premise that there are likely ways to be able to make money by being informed.. so then your being informed would be an advantage that anyone who is informed would have in their participating in the markets.

At the same time, I believe that anyone who uses the term "crypto" is either not informed, or they are engaging in language that purposefully confuses matters. 

In other words, getting involved in "crypto" sooner or later would have very high chances to lead a lot of folks to get fucked based on the ambiguity of the whole idea .. what the fuck is crypto?  Clearly not a clear concept regarding what you mean, exactly.

Is crypto 20k coins or more and a bunch of other nonsense such as ICOs, defi, NFTs, and a bunch of other gobbledy-gook baloney?  .. Why use the word crypto?  unless you happen to just be bad at communicating?  lf you actually understand what bitcoin's role in the whole matter is, then why not mention the word bitcoin and its role in the matter?  If you don't know what is bitcoin and you are not able to say such word, then you are likely confused or do not understand what's going on, which I suppose is a main idea in regards to what this thread seems to be trying to get at.

This is why self awareness is biggest life saver when we work on trading strategies. In addition to this crypto market is way different than shared and stocks that we experience in real world. The later is based on various factors which can be sensed or read and understood somewhere while crypto market stays completely anonymous and has lot of surprises on the way. Depending on someone else’s prediction could be risky and you don’t know what method and factors they considered. They could be wrong they could be right.

Self awareness and being that sensible in regarding into your possible actions to be made because this is where you do rely yourself on what should be the things to be done.
Market is confusing since from the beginning because you dont know or there are lots factors which could really affect your trading decisions.Outcomes would vary
on random way but it would be more better if you do know on what you are doing or you do have that knowledge on doing so.. You cant just sit yourself without
doing some homework when tending to make yourself get engaged.

Still confusing with market situation nowadays but looks have good chance after bitcoin reaching above $31,000 from lowest price last day under $29,600. Any speculative with bitcoin back reach higher price or only stuck on $31,000 before bitcoin going back drop price, Last several time higher price reached by bitcoin only on $32,000 before back drop under $29,000 and repeat several time. Looks have been as daily activities with bitcoin after reaching above $31,000 will back drop and stuck again under $29,000.

We can't get chance take profit on altcoin if bitcoin not stable reach higher price, or if not reaching above $32,000 maybe bitcoin can stable and not going dump drastically like last several time happend.

Making trading decisions in the midst of confusing market conditions like this is certainly a difficult thing and also a challenge,
need to be careful and consider many things before making a decision,
I think it's important to minimize risk

Which we all know Bitcoin does from time to time, for weeks and months in between cycles, followed by very sharp movements to again keep in a small range for weeks and months again.

I know people say it's accumulation time but I also feel like this is when the whales just want to keep scalping for 1-2% gains daily (imagine doing it on leverage and then doubling or even tripling the holdings). That's accelerated accumulation for those with whale bags.

And what to expect from the market, which in fact demonstrates the situation in the world? Now everything is terribly unstable.

Cryptocurrency market is now is confusing due to we don't know exactly were the market is starting from and when it will end, if some one want to buy coin now what coin can you recommend for the person to buy, i think the answer should nothing because you are afraid of the coin you will recommend for some body for now

As a trader or investor then you should really bare up yourself on creating such hard decision because you wont really be able to succeed if you do just sit down and done nothing.
You would be losing lots of opportunities if thats your behavior when making out decisions thats why its really crucial on having that kind of mindset on seeing opportunities
which would really be changing up things and the market is never been predictable in the first place which you would really be needing tools and other indicative things
which would really be helpful into your own analysis and making out actions according to that.

Well, if you are going with the flow like if your mind is also confused then indeed it will be hard for you to decide but if you will separate yourself from how the market works, you can calm your mind and won't ever be confused again. That is the time that you can decide much better. You said it is a challenge but that is a good thing. Sometimes we also need to challenge ourselves in order to become better on what we are doing.

At the end of the day, this was only trading, don't take it seriously as this wasn't all unless if you put all your money on this but it is important to minimize the risk by depositing only the funds that you can easily afford to lose.

Crypto market is not full of stable coins, there are unstable coins, the market can either be in favor of the bulls or bears, the market is not stable. I still do nykt find a good point in what you meant though, as it adds nothing to the OP.

Crypto market is not confusing, if you are not patient and just buying and selling without any strategy and analysis, it can confuse you.

It depends on your strategy, you can by bitcoin, not mind if the price decrease further, bitcoin should worth $100000 or more by 2024/2025.

Me, I am taking it seriously as I believe that is the only way I can be successful in trading.

The market is confusing if we don't study, people with a lack of knowledge panic when the market is in a bear or bull period, but those who understand the market situation, its trends, and its past, will always make the right decision.

just like now, the market is in bearish mode, people without enough knowledge will panic and dump their holdings, but those who understand will buy and sees it as a big opportunity to accumulate.

We should have been in the month of JUNE-JULY already in the monthly bullish phase,
but unfortunately the price of Bitcoin we can't predict correctly either,
because it's been sideways for months and finally broke below $28k again today,
this is really terrible according to me, because many experts also said $20k will come.

Yeah, there are lots of sayings and rumors or mumblings about going into that 20k price which i dont see for it to be impossible but of course no one really knows if this one would happen or not.We cant really precisely tell on what would gonna happen in the future to come.

We might be seeing in the past that June-July is having some bullish state or sentiment but we know that we cant be sure if it would be following on the same pattern
for on next years thats why its not a guarantee.

Market is confusing and unpredictable since from the start thats why this would really require out some good analysis and trial and error.

There had been so many confusion in the market where some traders speculate the price of Bitcoin to keep going down while other says the price of Bitcoin will continue it  bull run soon.

 We don't have to bother ourselves much about the direction of Bitcoin but what we have to do know in to invest what we can afford now that the crypto market is bearish. Even though the market goes down or up, we need to understand the fact that the market does not move in a direction always. Price can face any direct anytime any day.

Truly the market can really be confusing whether you're paying attention to what is being said by people or to what you believe is correct and profitable for you. Having a perfect reliable signal is never easy and it's hard to sometimes stick to a particular one because others would also come up with more enticing signals that can make you lose focus in the one that you've been using. Again, the very day the signal you concluded to refer to as "reliable" suddenly fails you once or twice you'd start looking for better ones which might even be worse than your previous one. So in every market there would always be risks as well as trial and error that might be favorable for a while but disappointing sometimes

I agree with you, because self awareness has helped many people to observed the type of strategies those successful traders are using in crypto market to achieve a huge amount of profits at the end of the market. Those that depended on people prediction in crypto market are seriously panicking right now, because they never believe that crypto market is unpredictable,the price can go up within a minute and fall down within a second. I think, the price is preparing to increase higher before the end of this month of June to enable short and long term traders to smile again.

Actually if we do research and analysis I think the market is predictable although that doesn't mean it guarantees we will know what it will look like in the future,
after all we have to follow the development and movement of the crypto market all the time,
we'll see at the end of June what it will be because so far the market is back down

The price of cryptocurrency has dropped drastically in the last few days. As a result investors are fallen in vacillation. Bitcoin price has fallen to its lowest level since 2020. Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange, has collapsed. A cryptocurrency that advertises itself as a stable medium of exchange but more than $300 billion has been lost since the cryptocurrency price crash on Monday.The market is dip and those who have blue whales will definitely take the advantage of this. Now everyone has to wait patiently for the next signal.

investors see opportunities in the current market conditions. confusing, but long-time investors will surely calmly split their money to get ready to go in and get big discounts in the market.
those who play for small money I think will hesitate. because relying on a fast pump is bound to be difficult in stressful market conditions. we have to patiently wait for the market to stabilize and start resetting our investment plans.
Don't panic and just analyze market conditions. more importantly who has the money to buy more.

The market is always difficult to guess, when the price of bitcoin rose more than $ 32k a few days ago, I continued to buy bitcoin and altcoins because many experts believed that the market was immediately bulling, but what happened was the opposite, the market drop was more than 25% and made me difficult to Sleep because of the many assets of my drop and make me lose.

The market itself is a rather complicated process. I often see those who are confident in their analyzes, although it is worth understanding that it is extremely difficult to predict the market.

Market is never been predictable in the first place which does simply means that you would need to have lots of considerations to mind off on where you do need to apply on at least having a good reading
towards the market despite of being totally random or speculative.

Market is indeed confusing but doesnt mean that it is impossible to deal with  and this is where people really differ since we do have different approach and actions to be made along the way.
We cant just sit down and relax whenever we do invest or trade.It does need ample time and effort to have at least a good grasp in the market.

At this stage the market is more clear, those times many analysis were giving their predictions about bearish possibilities and it has played out very well. So many analysts didn't want to give their prediction because they thought this hear will take a new shape and won't be bad as we are seeing now. Now we might still need to go down more before consolidation begins and we start moving up. Let's wait and see.

The market currently is very confusing and relying on plenty predictions after another just gets one more confused cause many of the predictions nowadays are just out of self opinion based on the perspective the analyst is viewing the trend at the moment. I always advise people to do the digging themselves it's much safer.

Market movement have been bearish for sometimes now irrespective of so many predictions of it taking a bullish move at some point but still yet that isn't the case, so to be on safe side it better to invest an amount you can afford to forgo in the case of loss as the market price keep dropping by the day.

Now the market is really in a difficult situation. You need to be prepared for different outcomes, and most importantly, understand the reasons for this situation.

I would say, this is the nature of crypto market. When we have an ATH, obviously there will be a correction and this correction depends, it might be very short or too long. Just look at the market graph ever since Bitcoin was launched. Whales do play an important role now. They do manipulate the market and they know when to do so and when to confuse the market. Not only now, even after a decade when Bitcoin reached $300k dollars, the market move will be like this.

yes, the market is extremely volatile these days. Crypto can be very confusing and difficult to understand especially for newer investors.
I am not new to crypto been here for 7 years but I admit I got caught with this bear.

we all can no longer avoid this bear season, I'm sure of that, whether they are pro traders or great investors I'm sure they are stuck in this bear market,
but rest assured that the price of coins in our portfolio can go back at least 2x or 3x from this bottom, because 2023 the market is likely to be more aggressive

I could remember the day in 2017 when btc price goes up to $20000, everyone are excited and willing to dive into the market. The price is backing to 20000 today, people are screaming to leave the market...

The only currency that I recommend buying is BTC, for me there is no other currency that can match it, I think that taking this into account, we could say that it is the safest currency in the world and as I have said in other threads, I would not recommend any currency right now alternative not even a token because from one moment to another everything can change, if the BTC drops in price the altcoins will drop in price, but they will not drop a little, they will drop a lot and the losses can be very large, I think that the best thing they can do is that if there are doubts or buy BTC or stay out of the market, but yes, if you buy BTC and the price drops, you cannot panic, you just have to wait as long as necessary until it rises.

Yes market is going up then comes down. This situation is in very confusion stage that where market will go from there. Sometimes it's looking that crypto is going to end after sometime. I got a scenario where I am not able to put money in market. This situation is very dangerous for all traders so we should be very intelligent to understand this market at present time.

The current state of the crypto market will not last long. With the change of days, the crypto market will go up and it may take some time. Now our job is to patiently monitor the market. This is normal in the crypto market.

The market is still confusing. The market is yet to figure out which way to go. Sometimes it seems like it will start to recover. Never again does it seem like it will go dip. I am afraid to invest in this market. So now I am waiting for the market to become stable. Let's see how long it takes to become stable.

The market has always been like this, and I think it will be in the future. It’s just that for some reason everyone wants easy money, but it just doesn’t happen that way.

Will be more confusing in the future?

That's what they think with the crypto market and it will not change for the beginners. But once they start touching it, that's where the actual thing goes on and understanding that this is no easy market.

It requires long patience and being understandable with the market situation and cycles.

Quite correct and exactly my own sentiment. Furthermore, anyone veteran who used to be like this and had this kind of quick money mindset will now tell you that the fastest way to lose all your money is chasing quick cash. Slow money gains is where the real profits are at. Thats why hodling is always more profitable and less nerve wracking than trading, especially day trading (which is basically just flip flopping until you burn through your money)

The volatility of the market might confuse us because the price movement of cryptocurrencies is unpredictable but we should know how to deal with it. The characteristic of cryptocurrency won't change so we should be the ones to adjust. Crypto offers a profitable investment but we shouldn't disregard the risks. It's not a shortcut to success or even a source of easy money so we should still be careful and always do continuous research regarding the changes that could possibly happen.

If talking about waiting for the market to stabilize it doesn't look like it will happen in the near future,
but actually we don't know for sure what it's like because it's really hard to predict,
even though the condition is like this we can take advantage of it by buying it and holding it for a certain time until the market recovers again

Sometimes, hodling is always the best option if you're too scared to trade especially on a daily basis. There's always a time when you trade, you feel like am I doing it right? Am I too greedy with my profit point and so on. Trading is not a single night job where you could gain massive loads of money and also not a fast way to gain experiences. Everyone wants easy money, but it's not as easy as it sounds. A quck way to lose money? Welp, that one's easy. Once you entered the market, you need to come well prepared for what's to come be it market volatility and news here and there that could make the prices upside down real fast.

Better think that the bear market is here to stay for a while. If we follow the trend, mostly the bear market will stay for years while the bull market will stay less than a year only, however, there's always an opportunity in bear market as this is the time where we can make ourselves ready for the next bull run.

the market correction of cryptocurrency can happen anytime soon because of the market condition nobody predict the future of Victor currency and cut it correctly because the market is in dependable market Andy it normally revises because no one controls the market structure so that is why the prediction of market is not orderly authentic because some people can go to the market anytime they feel like to buy cryptocurrency
