Finally bitcoin touched the 1 trillion market cap as it priced surged to $56,368 ATH yesterday. With this recent bull , the bitcoin market will begin to attract more adoption and institutional traders. Apart from Elon musk who converted most of his cash to bitcoin, this month the oldest bank in the United States announce to join the space The move has been fueled in part by increased adoption of bitcoin by major investors and companies. The oldest bank in the United States the Bank of New York Mellon, announced earlier this month that it was moving into the space. Elon Musk’s Tesla converted some of its balance sheet cash into bitcoin earlier this year and said it would start accepting the digital tokens as payment. From white paper to $1 Trillion. #Bitcoin is eating gold alive,” Gemini’s Cameron Winklevoss said on Twitter. The move may elicit the interest of institutional platforms in offering cryptocurrency custodian services Now that Bitcoin has cemented its status as a trillion-dollar asset among the likes of Amazon, Apple and Google, legacy banks are showing increasing interest in offering cryptocurrency custody services for their customers. https://cointelegraph.com/news/56-3k-bitcoin-price-and-1t-market-cap-signal-btc-is-here-to-stay

One problem with crypto trading service is that of pumping that happens there but not to the hearing of all members. It is usually used for pumping and dumping and a big buyer may buy much but can't off load because price has gone off the the hook low

I somehow wait for that little hope that my entry will still be at profit. But, many times I failes that part. That is why I strongly agree on this part. 1. Stop the trade:
Yes you fail because you hesitate to stop your trade lol. It is difficult to do however because it is your money like wasted but it is also a bitter truth to take the option of stopping the trade. Okay you need to see the advantages you have when you stop it : 1. You stop it, you cut or reduce your losses. 2. If you reduce your losses, y have another chance tovtake another good order with more capital that you didn't lose with the initially losing trade. 3. It helps you to correct your mistakes. It is a learning process for you to adjust towards your mistakes. Since stop loss was need to be triggered on my entry there is one scenario that Ive waited and readjust my stop loss price so it will go bounce back. But that's if only our TA shows that our entry is right. But things are still complicated and what I do now is to confirm it in different Tf and in different indicator. If obviously trap in a wrong market price, stop the trade and reentry is a good choice.
If you have the habit to readjusting your stop loss to high levels, you need to stop it because you will be losing more. A losing market will keep you losing for that day, so why readjusting your stoploss above or higher. This is saying instead of readjusting stop lose because of fear of being hit, you increase it and do yourself no good because the price may still take off your stoploss at such a high level of adjustment. Instead of increasing in adjustment, you can decrease in adjustment and this can be like a strategy for stopping a losing trade.

Op did not state the time range for the $300 speculation but bnb will get to that soon. The price is currently at $192 and that is causing spikes already. I believe binance popularity and the management activeness is a major boost to bnb.

Cardano needs to come up with a better idea, their team should gather together and start brainstorming.
Why are they hanging out if they just want to get another new idea? Isn't it that Cardano's current price is still in a very good domain even though the price has decreased several times but the difference is only a little. I think cardano is still having a good support in the market, it among the top five with price less than a dollar. $0.91 exactly and a little bullish in 5% .It is still a choice to make, for mean I think it is not overvalued, it is a nice project but the team need to work hard more.

In the beginning as like mining, there were also more calls for hodl. Many predictions was on hodling your bitcoin when price was below $10 but many sold and today we are seeing more stories of statements of regrets. People in the past never had the courage to invest in bitcoin but today expressing how they missed the chance.

2FA authenticator has saved many accounts from been hacked. I could remember once when my busha wallet was attacked by hackers but for my authenticator my little fund would have been a past tense.
This is applicable to other Crypto wallet so as to secure what we have struggled to acquire and avoid our accounts from been attacked
Using a wallet that you can have all security phrase to yourself is advised. Using exchange address is not advised if you can avoid it and transfer your hodling coins to the coins personal wallet or the wallet compatible with the coin like erc20 or tron , depending on the coin.

The reason why taking profit so hard sometimes is because of our expectations, we are aiming so high that we really thought it's going to be, or we have a target value, and also a past experience where we sold our token in the cheapest price in the market and wakes up the other day the price has gone up 20x higher the price we sold, and also greed we also are hesitant to take profit because of greed that we are dreaming like its gonna be like bitcoin price someday.
The expectation is why we lose after waiting for huge profit. There are times that we have the chance to off with some profit and we keep our fingers on the button and wait to go off but eventually lose all. If we take away greed too to understand that we still can make more money next trade, we do great profit turn around. Profit should be taken little and little or we lock in our profit no matter how little it is. Profit isn't hard to take but selfishness is the big challenge for trades. Bitcoin price was around $48k last week and yesterday was $52k , now at $51,712 these are all profit for unselfish trader.

Not sure if I get what you mean, but assuming you bought in with $100: you'd only gain another $100 ending you up with $200 of value(which is double your initial $100 investment) only if bitcoin doubles(100% increase) in price.
This is a simple explanation of op question. If he invested $100 then excluding his fees on buying and selling, @ $200 he should have doubled his investment. I think the fees should be excluded from his calculation because fees are taken off his hodling.

1. Stop the trade: This is very good but difficult for many traders to do it but if you do that, you have potential loss that you have saved.
Or a potential gain. I guess that's what hinders the decision. I've been through that before and I can say up until now the ghost of it won't stop. Halting the choice to stop it because of high expectations. I think it's just a normal emotion that will happen most of the time. Experience will help to control it though. Whenever I am on that occasion, I sell and never look back. It helps. Turn it off at your favorites list. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) 3. Try to adjust your stoploss: You can do this if your trade is already in profit and you suspect that it is going back to your entry price, so you can take your stoploss to entry and all the order to run for profit or it stops at your entry. This point is good for a trade you suspect that may later turn into profit. Rather than stopping the trade, you can readjust it to your entry point which gives you a 50/50 chance of making profit out of it or running out clean without losing your stake. How to recognize that we are on a wrong trade first?
You can if you have built a good strategy and when your orders turns against it , you can predict it rightly.

It is for traders to understand that there are price we pay in life to better in what we do. Just as people want to acquire some level of education,this is also the same with trading. But the using of plenty of indicator at a particular time is capable to confusing the trader to make big mistake and indecision.

Some trades we take are in wrong direction but because we want to be hopeful that it will come back to profit, we allow it and it close against us. If we keep doing this, it is the exact opposite attitude of someone that wants to keep their initial capital.
There are steps you can take to reduce the loss before you lose every thing or it get to your stop loss and such is
1. Stop the trade: This is very good but difficult for many traders to do it but if you do that, you have potential loss that you have saved.
2. Use of stoploss all the time: This help your losses to be minimal.
3. Try to adjust your stoploss: You can do this if your trade is already in profit and you suspect that it is going back to your entry price, so you can take your stoploss to entry and all the order to run for profit or it stops at your entry.

That was a great joke in my memory. What about your first trade? Is there any memorable joke?
But that doesn't look like a joke to me because you made out trade order that was profitable to you and you accumulated profit, that success story. In my own anyway, it was more of confusion than understanding what I was doing. I had difficulties setting up trade and I messed up at some point before I learnt the hard way. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

In the US dollar it's important to notice that price forecasts instead of cryptocurrencies should be seen as recommendations instead of call to action as we mentioned earlier, the crypto market is incredibly volatile so nobody will ever say the precise BTC price for subsequent few years. However BTC has been on the marketplace for quite a decade and a few experts can provide a comprehensive forecast of bitcoin supported currency price trends.
Yeah and considering the chaos it would create, would we really want to live in a world with a failed dollar ? Would Bitcoin really matter then ? It's not a given at all. A failed dollar in my view will become a collapse system if there isn't any fiat or crypto that can rise to the occasion as dollar world wide. Dollar failing means bitcoin value will collapse because many pairs are on btc which is usually measured in dollar. Except a coin like stable coins is discovered to fit into dollar but unfortunately, stable coins are still cryptocurrency and not fiat and can't play the traditional role of fiat.

unfortunately the price of bitcoin is currently starting to collapse and in my opinion the bull run is over and it's time to return to low prices, but my statement is not always true because bitcoin price movements will go up and down depending on the interaction between buyers and sellers at the exchange, so it must be stay alert to bitcoin price movements and don't make the wrong decision.
I think the bull is not stopping yet because more institutional buyers are coming into the market. I just checked price of bitcoin and now at $49,148 , this means $50,000 is just about the corner. The Chinese new year couldn't draw price down, so what do you expect? It is going up daily while some expect a drop. The altcoins too are in good move, etheruem is about $1,8++. This is a great time for hodlers who had faith.

I believed the OP wants to know the end of this bullish runs thus giving an ample opportunity to buy massively however the present price action is quite different from that of 2017 due to massive institutional adoption of Bitcoin this year,
I wonder how much price will drop now with institutional traders in the market now. Well it is depending on how much op is waiting for the drop to be. I don't expect that price will fall like it happened after 2017 bull because the market has grown. I expect a sideways price movement and not another collapse of market. Many coins have really done fantastic aside bitcoin so market may not be going flat as in 2017.

I think your third point is yet making reference to the second point, institutional investors. I think for me the institutional investors are one major factor that bitcoin is on the increase if Elon Musk invested or uses bitcoin for huge institutional payment and Amazon and others are part of the bitcoin adoption then we see it is the institutions creating such bull because of their huge transactions.

and the stimulus is just a temporary solution and will do more harm to their economy in the long run.
Point I need to understand here, you mean unemployment will bring more harm or the stimulus? On what you wrote here if you mean stimulus, I can disagree that stimulus will cause harm to the economy. You may think that because there is money as stimulus that inflation can show in the price of goods but No to that because stimulus is not huge, it is temporal and just enough to take care of basic needs like feeding and health care.
