I invested about $3500 in bitcoin on 19th December, 2017. After that Bitcoin price has been decreasing and this decreasing is ruing non stop. Now I am in loss amount of $700. I am so much frustration with my investment  :o. I am waiting for better time. If you have any idea please share in this thread.  ???

Sad, but you should wait, the btc value will go up anytime soon, is something is out of our control hence we don't hold big amounts of bitcoins to make something change in the market.

Be patient. You just invested for these 4 days. there is still plenty of time to wait for bitcoin prices to go back up. hopefully you quickly get good news about bitcoin. Good luck.

THe price should moon again after the New Year. I believe too many people cash out before holidays

We can't say, when price will grow up. It is depend upon many factors that affect market of bitcoin. The factors like government legislation, interest from institutional investers and interest from asian countries.
So just have to predict the market will be. But still considering previous market performance I think value of bitcoin will increase definitely.
Good luck.....

Don't worry, you can wait until bitcoin increasing. I sure bitcoin will increase again. My experience in 4 month (that the fastest experience I have) you can get the profit from bitcoin.
You invest in this month (december 2017), you must wait in a few month and you will see the profit from bitcoin.

You enter in a risky market so expect to really incur losses specially when you don't have patient. You just invest for almost 4days and I believe expecting higher return is not an ideal thing. Invest what you can afford to loose, hold it for good because bitcoin will bounce back and you will be happy for sure. Just be more patient, enjoy the holidays.

No one really knows. I personally don't think it will start to rally until the transactions backlog starts to thin down. Considering the fact that it's still increasing, who knows when that will happen.

One thing you should keep in mind is that you don't really lose until you sell lower than you bought. I'd say wait for the rally, then at least wait until you break even.

I think we just have to wait until the year ends and look forward to the surprise of bitcoin. because many of them are selling bitcoins, please invest as much as you can on bitcoin, I'm just waiting for a bitcoin reduction to invest as much as possible

Don't worry, my friend. That's the way to invest in bitcoin, you have to get used to it. It is always accompanied by skyrocketing and plummeting. If you plan to invest bitcoins for a long time, you only need to hold it. The short-term loss is only temporary, and you will soon be profitable.

I think the same way. Many investors who have made a lot of money during the year will now take advantage of their profits...

There is nothing to be able to say if the price is higher or the price is lowered. Do not worry you can wait until bitcoin increases especially maybe during the new year will change a lot and I'm sure the price will return to 19,000 USD or more. Do not lose hope all of your sacrifices and expectations will bring good results. Be patient! You're not the only loser this month. Do not sell it just hold it and believe in re-raising it again like mine.

you have to be patient and optimistic if bitcoin will increase, this is only temporary decline because if seen from past experience bitcoin down only briefly and will rise again to higher.

don't worry bro, price will go up soon in 2018, invest in BTC for long term

Just learn to wait much further. I predict bitcoin price will soon increase again after New years eve, by then, you wouldn't regret waiting men, believe me. I also have bitcoin today and I'm waiting for 2018 because I know for   sure it is the right time to sell.

History always repeat itself as regards to the dwindling price of bitcoin, this is not the first we are experiencing such a scenario whenever bitcoin reaches a new highest high it crashes  (correction) this is based on the past price behaviour I am very optimistic it is going to come out stronger just keep hodling your coins there are better days ahead.

Don't lose hope on bitcoin, because that is what bitcoin is, it depends on the people who uses it will be its value so when fewer are investing bitcoin then the price will become low but soon enough it will rise because you dont predict on what will happen next to bitcoin, few years ago bitcoin is just a penny but now imagine its value.

It eventually will, once people sets back and begin purchasing... Also whey they fix the transaction fees and delays is a good chance it will grow, trhis weekend it will go up again, I bet ...

I feel that, Bitcoin will surely rise again and will make new highs. Bitcoin is gaining huge popularity and acceptance worldwide. Various countries are recognizing or considering it to recognize as a legal tender of money. This creates a positive impact on Bitcoin market which leads to rise in prices.
 please invest as much as you can on bitcoin, I'm just waiting for a bitcoin reduction to invest as much as possible. ;D

This is normal to bitcoin in which already happens so many times before that if the bitcoin will have a sudden price value drop it will be an opportunity of some holders to buy at the lower price again. I will buy much bitcoin if the price go to $14,000 to $15,000 because i believed this sudden dump was due to holiday seasons in which holders need paper money to spend and still believed by next year it will hit $20,000 mark.

Its a common retrace phase happens..like happens when all alts crash when most of newbies start to sell it cheap ..But thats the best time to accumulate those low quality alts..likewise it is the the time for most of new comers to get their hands on bitcoin..Bad that u got recently when it was at peak..even i have done this mistake when i did 1st..but nothing to worry my dear friend ...HOLD is the best option...  

It is only 4 days since your investment, just be patient sir and hold your coins. Bitcoin has a long way to go, the value wull still increase in the coming days. Anyways bitcoin investment is a long term profit so dont fret about your lose within the period of 4 days coz for sure after lets say a year or two it will increase even beyond our expectation.

The decreasing value of bitcoin nowadays is due to the Christmas season. More people withdraw their bitcoin investment or convert their bitcoins into flat because they need money for the Holiday. As we all know, Christmas is most expensive season because people buy gifts and food for their love ones. Also, during this season, only few people invest money. In connection with that, the bitcoin value decreases and being affected. This is the reason of your lost. But, do not lost hope because after this season, bitcoin value will increase again. And by then, your lost will recover and you will start earning bitcoin.

Botcoin`s journey from $19800 to $14403 is not unexpected. Every healthy currency corrects itself after a big upward rally. From last one year bitcoin was going up regularly. Bitcoin investors were pouring their money, now time has come to take away the profit. When this get over bitcoin price will start rising. At the end of the all the markets all over the world faces same situation. So there is nothing to worry. By the end of January bitcoin price will start increasing.

not a week you invest bitcoin. be patient brother, you should to wait until bitcoin increased back but we don't know when bitcoin will increased again. maybe couple of weeks/months. don't panic sell.

Sad to see that situation again, but don't lose the spirit. Bitcoin price will go up again. I think it looks like a market gambling and the share has been handed over to the Bitcoin holders. I believe that all cryptocurrencies market situation will come down and the price will get back within a week.

Once you invest in this market so that you have to keep it up and observe that situation. take your time, profit will come to you for sure within a couple of days. Keep patience and be strong...

I can't believe the bitcoin prices has decreased this much probably the change to BCH is happening and bitcoin may have no future due to  the ongoing transaction spam.

you know its pretty normal to see bitcoin prices declining. it is because of the correction that is currently happening now due to the fact that bitcoin lately reach its new all time high which was at 20k dollar level and it is not because of bitcoincash. the reason why bch surge is because  some few people are using it as an alternative next to bitcoin because bch is indeed much faster and has a lesser transaction fee than bitcoin.

but theres nothing to worry about it because for sure bitcoin can possibly recover sooner or later r afeter this holiday season has passed.

You can wait until new year. Bitcoin price is now dropping because many people are selling their bitcoin for money what is needed for them on Christmas. Hope after Christmas you can get high value from btc. Then you can earn some profit from your​ investment.

5 years

Yes, they have posible to rise again his price or value on this coming year 2018. That's why you don't worry about that happen if bitcoin fall down because they increase  soon, that's my opinion. Anyways, like other said, invest in bitcoin for a long term.

Do not panic sell just the others did because what they did was wrong. Just relax and keep waiting, remove your frustation because you will get more confuse making the things getting even worse. I'm sure that btc will rise again, let's hope this correction stop before year ends. :)

You didn't "invested" you speculated on greed. Let this be a lesson.

Lol. You should've figured out that holidays are big signs of price drop in almost every crypto currency out there. But hey, no worries man. These price drops are only temporary and are thing you really shouldn't worry about that much just yet. So just relax. By 2018 you'll be runnin and screaming that you made the best decision you ever made in your life. Lol.

Nothing to fear or worry about, I suggest to go with the holding. More the holding, more will be the profiting and in particular you need to understand that after each and every price drop the price grows higher than the value from which it got to drop down. Now this time soon can expect the price to reach above $20000.

you choose bad time to buy bitcoin all know crash must happen soon.

now if you sell will loss 1000$ just keep hold will back normally

yes just wait until the price of bitcoin will increased again, because anytime the price of it will pump again and many people are predicting to it for the future.

We dont know yet when is the bitcoin price will be increase again. The price had falls down today and we didnt expected it yet to happen soon. Yes if you sell now you will lose big so better hold and wait for the price to increase.

No one knows for certain since that question is for the market to decide. As of now only 4 out of 100 top alts are in a great shape, the rest are taking a beating which tells me that everyone is just taking profits and trading will commence after the festivities. Best guess of mine would be January where everything will start to be wild again same as our run back in Jan 2017.

BTC will go up 20.000$ in 1 month.
Price will be 70 k end of 2018.

Don't worry. Although your investment time is not good, however determine prices will rise. Bitcoin price is falling very deep. I hope the prices will soon rise again. the need to do now is continue to hold your bitcoin

Let me tell you my story. i bought 1 Ethereun on December, then it got down to 200$, Then i thought i am in loss. But after 1 month i am in profit of 500$ :) have patience buddy

When you enter the trading the word patience is necessary. The market is fluctuating daily we might lose or win the game. But all of this, you know how to handle your loss and ofcourse always claim of being the winner. Also, jist wait for the btc price it will high again.

I think bitcoin is going to keep going sideway this year, but if you want to make money then altcoin is where you should look at.

If you are currently in loss than my advice would be to simply hold your bitcoins.There is no charge for doing that.Have patience and wait long term you will surely make profit.Don't do noobie mistake by panic selling at loss if you see bitcoin fall more.It's price will recover back one day as it always does :)

Some people experience sell panic and they sell bitcoin at a cheap price. We all need the patience to make the right decisions. I have seen that there will be a surprise that the price of Bitcoin will be affected significantly. When the price declines we also do not immediately take a careless action because for me the price of Bitcoin will again increase and be on the positive track.

Feeling very sad for you bro.But it happens sometimes. It must happen.Because,it is such a business stage of a cryptocurrency where there the price of bitcoin (cryptocurrency)will continuously rise and fall.This is the reality.It will happen when you engage with a cryptocurrency trading.

When you had invested your dollars,the price of per bitcoin was $16181.00.But today in 10th January of 2018,the price has declined and reached to something $13000 which is very disappointing.. Within 13.12.2017 to 10.01.2018,the price has continuously risen and fallen..,even reach to $17000..!!

I can't tell you the exact time when the price of bitcoin will increase,even none can tell so.But we can hope that this year,the price of bitcoin will hit such a price which will be able to make us surprised. Don't feel frustrated. Mind it that you are not the only one who is in a lose.Soon,it will recover..

Since you have invested the prices are falling but its not a full month since your investment so just wait the prices will again rise soon and you will not loose but for that you need to be patience as it is most important element in trading.See you have get panic within short span which shows you are not a risk bearer but you have to be and stay caml.The prices will rise in some time and cross $25000 easliy.

I think in 2018 bitcoin will increase

I think that it is necessary to wait, because bitcoin will grow further, but not so quickly. Now, in order for it to grow it is necessary to invest even more money into it.

That is a consequence. The most influential thing is the timing in decision making, if you look at all then I predict the price of bitcoin can experience an increase again and the decline is a thing that will always happen. All the precious things in the world will surely decrease and increase. So when we experience a loss it means we still have not found the right time, so please think again how we should determine the time to buy and sell the bitcoin we have. It is a valuable lesson and that is the trademark of trading.

i think when altcoin price stable, BTC will soon rise again
because when i see that altcoin go higher, BTC price will go down
but when altcoin price is down, BTC price sometime will go down too
CMIIW
it is hard to get accurate time
i think diversivy is important than looking for perfect time to invest

Bitcoin will not stay at lower price for more than a few weeks, going up and down is the main aspect of bitcoin and as an investor you should keep patience if you want to avoid loss.
People are currently diverted to ripple and ethereum but bitcoin price must also increase again.
Profit doesn't come fmusually in short periods, you must wait for some time until whale investors pump bitcoin market and then you have a change to recovee loss

I will advice you that bitcoin is going to push forward again by next week and the bullish momentum is going to last for long. Bitcoin has performed very well in 2017 and we expect 2018 to be another boom in cryptocurrencies and bitcoin is going to be the biggest beneficiary. I expect us to have a very fruitful 2018.

Very tough to say as of now its in a stable position, predicting another upcoming rally is hard. I believe within 2 months there can be a good rally but I doubt a rally as December will be seen anytime soon. Actually such kind of uproar rally is not healthy as well.

If you haven't sold any of the Bitcoin you bought then you haven't lost any amount yet. It just happened that you bought Bitcoin when it is at it's peak so experiencing down time is normal. Just keep on holding your Bitcoin since BTC is very much profitable in the long run. Patience should be your option for now. Bitcoin is Bitcoin, only weak hands suffer ;)
