I have concerns about lots of people exiting bitcoin once they reach a target before or after the halving,  what price will you cash out or will you hold strong?

The major risk of cashing out is that the train doesnt stop and you get left behind.

My primary target was to sell at the price of $800 but now I don't think that it will happen soon, so even if it touches the price of $750 I will sell my coins.

dont try to find a top/bottom. Just watch the market.
If bitcoin reaches your target, follow the changes, the news, other coins etc etc. if something says to you it will drop then you sell. otherwise, just flow with the tide. Well, that's how i do.

I wonder if it will be the majority of hero and Legendary members that will cash out at these level as most may have bought at high ammounts and even more might own at least 100 or maybe 1000 and think it's a good amount to cash out to.

I probably won't sell any of my Bitcoin after the halving aside from what I currently sell on a semi-regular basis. Unless something amazing happens and the value miraculously increases beyond what I would expect, it would be incredibly unlikely for me to go and sell what I have built up. There's a lot more in the future for Bitcoin other than just a halving or two, and if enough things happen Bitcoin could be a very good thing.

I've no intention of ever selling and whatever happens after the halvening is noise in the greater scheme of things.

I'm going to take a proper stock of things in 2020 and then decide what's what. If it's not flying by then then I think it'll be time to shop elsewhere.

Maybe by then most will finally have 20/20 vision.

I won't hold my breath over it though.

There is actually a prediction that it'll reach a very high one for about two or three days right after the halving due to people's tendency to buy in anticipation of the "high rise" or "to the moon", and after one or two weeks, it will slow down. I can say that I'm agree with most people here, if you want to play safe, don't be greed or (if I may say) naive by waiting for the highest, because that highest point is not certain. Play safe by setting our own point where you'll sell some or all of your btc when the price reach that point, then get satisfied by it, no matter if the price goes up or down after that point. I'm not selling mine because I'm actually planned to keep it for a while.

The major risk of cashing out is that the train doesnt stop and you get left behind.

The major risk of cashing out is holding worthless fiat currency that is sure to see inflationary devaluation by continued expansion of so called "quantitative easing". I'm not sure what your concern is. In my view it is a certainty that fiat money will be devalued, so it makes no sense to hold it.

"Cashing out" is also the wrong term to describe selling Bitcoin for fiat junk money, because Bitcoin is unrestricted cash.

Therefore for me it would be an irrational decision to sell Bitcoin for fiat. I'll hodl until I can buy all goods and services with Bitcoin directly.

Very true. It might make sence to sell Bitcoin for fiat though as this is what would most likely happen anyway if you spend the Bitcoin instead, but spend the fiat immediatelly, do not hold the fiat. Holding fiat does not make much sence, you dont know how much fiat supply exist at any time and who can create it out of nothing because you cant even check the fiat ledger. As I say, hold only as much fiat as you are comfortable to loose.

So holding Bitcoin make sence, and spending whenever you need. But with higher prices, I tend to spend Bitcoin much more, when I compare recent almost 700 USD and 400 USD earlier. So definitively if Bitcoin price goes even higher, I would spend Bitcoin even more on things I dont necessary need.

Bitcoin bank runs coupled with trading sites "having technical difficulties" while they try to slow the bleeding.

Better hope the liquidity is there or you will be stuck bag holding.

Yup if you are planning to buy then I think you need to wait for the post halving, as price will fall after the halving as majority of users will sell their coins at higher price at halving.

Selling half before the halving, and keep the other half to no matter what, but I will never sell everything.
