I got some BTC and want to sell them.
The prices have gone down too much in past few months.

Can anyone tell that when do we expect the prices to again reach 400$+

Also do we expect the prices to go even down? If yes, Shall I buy more BTC?

I seriously think its not the correct time to sell the BTC, what you think?  8)

I dont think it is a good time to sell right now, if your patient you can wait one more year until the blocks get halved. I'd imagine the price rise up afterwards.

You are in control of you're bitcoin if you want to sell then you should sell, do not let anyone speak you out of it telling you moon is coming etc

Also you will not get the answer you're looking for about price, the thing is nobody knows if they did then they would be extremely rich and to busy to give you their knowledge what you need.

But i will tell you i am holding for years to come if you believe in bitcoin then it's an easy decision and then you would also know when to buy more  ;)   

Hold them, I still believe the price will hit $500 this year.

Nobody can tell you when the price will rise and don't listen to anyone who thinks otherwise. All you can do is hold and wait and hope for the best. It's silly selling your coins at such a low price so just have patience. Hopefully the value of bitcoin today will be peanuts compared to its future potential price but nothing is guaranteed.

yeah.. nobody know. May be this night  ;)

If you have bitcoins...do you ever buy anything online?

Do you like getting discounts when buying things online?

Why sell when you can just spend it at brawker.com or purse.io and save money?

Don't you worry about a thing friendo!  Chuckbuck is shaking the magic 8 ball as we speak right now...

Sign points to yes!  The wise magic 8 ball has spoken.  Interpret that answer as you must (chucks magic 8 ball down the street).


Me personally, I'm HODLING till we don't have to HODL no more...

My crystal ball said 400$ will be reached by 19.6.2016. Not sure if it is lying.

This thread should be moved in the speculation section.

Yeah better hold those Bitcoin for now.
This 200ish area is the lowest since late 2013 IIRC, better wait for something significant happening.

I am quiet impatient. Don't know if I will be able to have these BTC in hand till the next year  8) ;D

Noone knows its too hard to predict the price.

Man I agree with your sayings. I just wanted to get some tips. And those who are regular buyers and sellers of BTC do have an approximate idea that will price go up or down.

I personally have no idea as I have bought and sold BTC only 4 times till now. Just wanted some help :)

Thanks sir for the advice. Am thinking to buy some BTC now  ;D

In a recent graph plotting, where bitcoin price was plotted against the log of difficulty, it was found that bitcoin will first reach 40 USD and then bounce back to increase upto 15000 USD. Further could not be predicted as difficulty beyond that was beyond prediction due to the probability of new hardware in between.

And what if it keeps on going down and down and down?

Oh thanks sir!! Never knew of that site. Will have a look now :)

L0L

Hope it is lying. Wish it gets to 400$ by 19.6.2015  ;)

It's not good to be impatient when doing business. And sitting on Bitcoin is just a risky business.
From what I understand you "invested" more that you'd afford to lose.
And this means that whenever Bitcoin will go over your target of 400$, it will be "just" after you, impatiently, sold.

Oh what? Really?? Can you please post the chart?? I really can't believe it  ::)

If your just sitting on your hands waiting to push the Sell Button once it's $400, you're going to really kick yourself if it goes to $500, $600, $1000 etc.

Don't think of a fixed number or price, think of timeframe, maybe a year, 2, 5 years down the line.  If it isn't adopted or ends up a failed experiment in a year or so, get out of your position, and never look back.

If you're believer, and you see and hear lots of great things happening in the ecosystem, see ATMs sprouting up, see companies continue to support and adopt BTC, then maybe hold it a bit longer to see what'll happen.

Don't listen to anyone on these forums on what to do with your stash, it's strictly on you.  If you believe in Bitcoin or not.

Oh Yeah!!  :D ;)

Thanks for the advice sir!! Will keep in mind

Truths are sometimes unbelievable...

...could not find the future plot.

The exchange rate is scheduled to pass $400 / bitcoins in either mid-July or mid-August, I forget which.

But there is no point selling then because the all time high of $4,670 / bitcoin will be in June of 2016 after a very sharp run up that spring.  They will never be that high again so that is when I am selling.

By looking at your avatar, it's "telling" me that your prediction is a very solid one.

OP, just hold your coins, or buy something nice with them.

Selling at this point is not really a smart move, and you'll regret it for sure when price goes up again.

Sure thanks bro for the advice..

I watched the halving of various altcoins, for those cases I have studied, the value always increase 2-10 days before the halving, and then crashes quite hard at the time of the halving.
Not saying that the same will happen for bitcoin, just don't underestimate the power of the expectation.

It is very hard to predict the price, and especially when the exact level will be reached. Nevertheless, it is important to follow the basic trading rules: buy low and sell high. And this current price is definitely not a sell-high price, it is actually the buy-low price or very close to that. Therefore my hint, if not absolutely necessary do not sell your BTC. Wait. Be patient. The price will come to you and you will know when to sell.

you can hodL if you don't need the money badly and it might just go up and make you rich(er)

when you buy something like bitcoin that its price changes a lot you have to make up your mind at the time of buying. if you want to hold long term and you believe that the price is going to rise above your buy level then close your eyes to the current price and sit on your stock!

Good point, also fixed your typo.

well 400 doesn't sound that hard does it?, it could be in 1-2 months or at the end of this year, but it certainly possible

$500 is possible.

This is the year of stability on the low areas under 500 imo. Its the last year to try to stack as many BTC as humanly possible. Let us not miss the boat twice for Satoshi.

I have been buying and selling Bitcoin awhile and it's just full of surprises lol

I can give you a tip but only invest what you can afford to lose, that being said there maybe/is a fork coming up in the near future and imo if that does not go smoothly then we will see a drop in price for sure.

Me personally am buying up to the fork in small amounts if it drops before during and just after the fork i will be buying larger amounts.

Good luck with you're future in BTC

To answer you're question will it reach $400 again yes i think it will but not till after what i have told you.

When? In a year?
A year is a long time by Bitcoin's standards.

I think by the end of 2015.

This summer, aka your prediction is pretty legit.

I think BTC might reach $400 by May/June this year .

Only in your dreams BTC will ever reach 400$ again.

2017    ???

2018-2020? ;)

Buy and HOLD maaan :D that's the best way now for rise the price, but i doubt the price will reach $400 in this year. No one know the price movement accurately :)

Why do you think that ?

The price did not rise after halving for many coins. I hope BTC is an exception.

Right now it's difficult to predict the direction it is heading. Just wait for the next halving when the mining reward reduces half and from there should be more clear.

I expect more of sideways movement in most of the 2015. The process of finding the bottom is usually be boring long, but once the sentiment is set then the ride in the new direction (either up or down) can be fast. For now there are several early indicators that the sentiment may be shifting from negative to non-negative, as some of theoretically negative recent news (Marshall auction, BTER robbery) has little or very little negative impact on the price.

why would it rise at all? would difficulty manages everything that the price wouldnt rise?

usually price rises before the halving, like in the old sying: buy the rumor, sell the news.

Yeah it's fairly reasonable to expect ~$400 by the summer, I'd like to see $500 by the end of the year but only time will tell.

That's because there's no demand for most of these alts and they have the lifespans of flies.


Supply and demand. If something gets rarer and it's still in demand then it should become more valuable in theory. We can only wait and see, though.

Before July.

Block halving will impact the price for sure but in my opinion $400 is achievable by October this year.

Could be next month as the bullish sentiments can manifest themselves anytime.

some time of this year.

Once all the memory of hacking things starts to fade away

Yes it is possible it will reach $400 this year, as it was just around $350 last December, it can pretty recover in price soon. I recommend to buy and hold for quite sometime.

Next month? Hope so :-*

I guess it would be just before the summer. Why I think that, i don;t know. Just a feeling.

Probably this year, I'd guess August.

It will surely rise up after the halving.

We might reach 400$ again, but it could be difficult to keep it above 400$.

well 400 isn't too far away, it could be reached in no time really, just a matter of bots, manipulation, good news and other random things

It is hard to predict, but i guess next year could be year of bitcoin rising. Old gipsy woman told me.

If/when to sell and what price should be a mathematical decision made before getting into the market rather than a change of heart later.

That said, I think seeing $400 this year could be on the cards, though it may only be temporary, and I'll be looking for a macro behaviour rather than short term pumps.

I'm not qualified to give advice, only to say that if anyone really knew the future price, it would be there already, but in practise it's more of a random walk (that is to say, it's likely that tomorrows price will be similar to todays, give or take).

My own position is I'm holding.  That may or may not be appropriate for other peoples circumstances.

You mean hope it is not lying?

Edit: Post deleted?

When the next bull run starts, 400 will be crossed in no time.

That will happen after the latest 50,000 BTC to be auctioned by US Marshall. 

I don't think the auction of the US Marshalls will have big impact on the price of bitcoin, if any. It had a significant impact in case of the first auction, but it was already of less significance in the case of second auction. It looks like all recent news that had the potential to drive the price downwards, e.g., BTER exchange robbery, did not hurt the price of Bitcoin very much, meaning we may observe sentiment shift towards a more neutral territory. Moreover, coins to be bought at the auction at the very attractive price would probably not see the market any time soon. 

After the 50k coins are dumped by the gov we can go up to 300 I think.

Hold them for a decade or weep for a lifetime, choose wisely.

The uncertainty associated with these auctions is keeping the price down.

We'll see up and downs because massive dumps cause severe distortion on the price... but then again the last gov dump from auctioned coins didn't change the price much.

never again, so wake up guys dont hope to much with bitcoin.. so sad every week i see the price drop

Maybe in the summer of this year.
and hope it won't go down again

nope in past few week price is go up price will reach 400$ soon



before summer it will reach 400$ to 500$ back to the gAme

many bagholders are looking for exit so no moon this year. every time it starts to rise bagholders are dumping   :(

Let bagholders dump their cheap coins. In a couple of years they'll use their bags to self suffocate to avoid the painful reality: They could have been rich.

Zoom out.

$400 doesn't seem very far away, to be honest. As soon as we break the downwards bearish trend we're still in at the moment, I think we can reach those heights withing a month or two. I then expect a healthy but steady growth to about $1000 again.

Hmmm so you want a date or the circumstances under which this may be possible? Date... I just go by my gut feeling and say June/July this year. I can definitely see a trend-reversal happening by that time and it wouldn't surprise me if we go up by that much (which isn't especially that much, to be honest)

Exactly. My impression for the gazillion of the topics we have now in the speculation section, is that the authors of threads have the perspective of 1-2 days maximum, when propheting the end of Bitcoin or begin of new bull era (choose whichever camp you want). Rome wasn't built in a day guys/gals.

Hi, is this zoomed out enough?  Am I doing it right?

I like this chart better

If you want to prove your thesis that we are in the mid-term down trend than yes. But you missed my point.

its number of transactions per day we are talking about bitcoin price here

Nobody knows for sure. The best prediction of the price in a month that you can easily get is the current price.

These guys don't know how to zoom out their minds and look long term and understand the disruptive nature of Bitcoin. They are doomed to not be pioneers.

Yeah, they're stuck at the tipping point while the rest of us achieve singularity.

but market analyses can get the some near about peridict the bitcoin price

I guess this year. Don't sell when it gets there! Guess it will be the beginning of a next rally (wishful thinking...).

If the next price rise starts, I would think pretty soon.
My guess is May-June 2015. The uptrend should start by then.

bitcoin to reach $400 around aug: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=972228.0

It has been sait times and times again that drawing lines on the charts proves nothing.

Maybe by the middle of the year once the entire Fed auction overhang has been digested by the market

many people said bitcoin prices will go up when bitcoin ETF hit wall street
but i think it won't make huge difference :(
bitcoin prices keep failing over time

In the year 2018.

Sometime near October, I guess.

https://i.warosu.org/data/ck/img/0059/44/1415079419470.gif

perhaps, before ... like 2016 (1/2 reward)   ;)

we can see the price mark of 400 at mid of the year 2015, if you can hold till then , you should hold selling at current price is not a good decision.

current prices are good to buy in. only sell if you really need the money.
$400 is a fair prediction. i hope it will go up slowly instead of a peak.

I'm happy to see it hovering around $250 lately.  Seems to be stabilizing... ha!  Who am I kidding?  There's no such thing as stabilizing in bitcoin hahahahaha.  Well... I think it will hit $400 again.  But so much of this can be hysteria.  Truth is though, the btc infrastructure and integration to e-commerce is quietly and rapidly growing. 

Bitcoin will explode again and a lot of people will be chasing

BTC will be lucky to break $300 USD for the year of 2015 in my opinion. It has alot of ground gaining to do to get back to that market value. I do hope it does. More money is never a bad thing.

I think that BTC will reach again 400$+ within the end of the year but now it isn't possible to see this price because there isn't many liquidity in the market.

Bitcoin has the potential and there a people - winklevii- that can blow it up with interest coming in from NY. However with the etf a seemingly long way away i would expect prices to hold around $2xx, with sideways action as usual :D

It will be really slow for the rest of the year, a slow way up, then a big rally. I would say they need to hurry with the ETF but better be late and doing it right.

Someone was telling me the other day that by the end of this year.. the blocks will half and the price of bitcoins will become double. Don't know if that's true or not but wish it happens. Wish someone tells me if this is true or not :)

it's not true, the halving is expected by the end of 2016, not this year, but 400 should be achieved before that, i mean it's not that far away from the current price, and it isn't certainly impossible to reach it this year
