Trading is unpredictable job.

[Oralmat]

Trading is not unpredictable in any way.  You have to remove your own emotions from the mix and follow the signals that work.  There is only one thing that will stand between success and an investor and that is the investor.  There is no way to mess this up if it is done right, especially with the vast numbers of coins out there that give you the ability to hedge and re-hedge again.  The market was fickle in the beginning, but this is four years in and there are proven methods that work.

If you have the appropriate insider knowledge or enough money to influence the market, then it will become predictable.

But for us small traders it will be in most cases unpredictable.

even u got information most of the small traders dont know how to do exactly.
So just do ur own style and the analysis way u prefer.

It is still impossible to manipulate the market even for mysterius guy like satoshi.
Satoshi hold 1 million of bitcoin , could just dump the market with its power but nothing much will changed.
As the power of us , many people much more stronger to keep it decentralized.

Yeah trading is unpredictable, we do not know when the exact time to sell or buy, if we buy or sell it at the wrong time we certainly got a loss. To avoid losses in the world of commerce we must have a strategy or a good method to make a profit. So a bit difficult to trade we do not know when the price will increase and when the price will go down, but for now trading is very exciting because altcoin prices are getting better.

Do you mean the whales? Yes they are the ones who are predicting the market and we small time traders will usually just follow them whatever will be the movement of bitcoins price. And it's really uncertain to say when will the price of bitcoin to become stable. So we just need to go along with them just like a water.

I meant to disagree if it will be applied to bitcoin trading. Today's bitcoin price activity are not anymore being controlled by large whales that can dictate what will be the price trend, ups or down. At least in my own knowledge, different people now are being a large hoarders and not just whales like in the past where once they triggered price increase or decrease, surely it will happen because they can shake the market.

The power of whales are now presently seen at altcoin trading. So much control that they can bring up or down the price even in a matter of less than 24h and leaving behind those average altcoin trader especially if the coin is newly established on the exchange. Risky isn't it that's why no matter how trading is unpredictable, we can go with the flow as long as we are eager to win on the long run.

Whales just buy huge amount of bitcoin. But I don't think they are the ones who are predicting and dictating the market price. Right now, bitcoin price is very strong, its means a lot of investors: whales, sharks or even casual investors like us is buying. So now, its very very hard to manipulate its price because the crowd is going bigger as well. Well maybe before, when the Chinese are dominating the market. But not now.

Yes it is true, trading is an unpredictable job because in trading we do not know what we trade can be enthused by everyone or not, If indeed what is traded we are in demand of many people then we will gain profit but otherwise we will lose.
That's where I think trading is unpredictable.

[dmamigo]

I think and believe it is somewhat predictable and somewhat unpredictable. Predictable because you can follow market factors and economic movements which will help a trader to assume or somewhat predict to some extent, what might happen. Even technical analysis makes it somewhat predictable, if its done correctly
Now at some point it becomes totally unpredictable and becomes kind of gambling, but only if you trade totally blindly.
Moreover it not good to listen advises from others, better you make your own choices.

I think now the marketcap of bitcoin is very high and now not a group of people are the whales of bitcoin because bitcoin is spread everywhere and now it is impossible for them to modify the rate of bitcoin but we collectively can move the price of bitcoin.

I don't know much about trading, and I also don't stick my nose in something I don't know much. I use to do a lot of research about the thing I want to invest in.
In trading i haven't got ever any profit, I believe it's due to the reason that I don't know much about candlesticks and always buy at a high price and when u buy at high price, the price starts dropping.

It is very high but we can't remove that there are whales who are still manipulating the market of bitcoin. Although they really don't have full control on it but they can affect the price of bitcoin. For small time traders they just need to go with the flow and it's up to them on how long they will ride these fluctuations.

If you are talking about crypto trading yes it is unpredictable, no limits up/down , you may end up broke, thats why if you want to trade every single day you have to read first everything about the coin you wanna play with, then read the charts and try to find some info about a possible price rise or fall
Well you dont have to panic , so this means you have to trade with what you afford to lose, if not ...you cant avoid it!
my conclusion is if you dont have the time to watching the markets/news 24/7 and you dont have a group to discuss and do some co-work, then you gonna need a bot save your from a down trend and limit your loss,

P.S trade bot is another story (how to set it up) and be trusthworthy with your folio!

There are no price movement every day for altcoins. if there is its just cents which may not affect much unless you have hundreds of thousands for decent profit.
you'd rather go forex or stock market if you wanna do it everyday and treat it like its your business.

True.
It is really scary that alt trading no limit, no guarantee and no watch-dog.
It is unpreditable so you have to watch almost every other alt and the news. Very unpredictable.

Yes, we need all those things above. We can't really know when to earn by trading but it will give you a lot of money once you became successful on your career path. Be a trader is very a good job if you know the strategy behind it. Need a method to know the step by step process, mind - to know the different strategy on how to earn big then lastly is money - risking your money is the best to earn money. You need to risk your money to earn big or nothing.

Trading is surely an unpredictable job as you never know how coin will move in next few minutes or in next few hours and if you don't take a right move at a right time then you will surely make a big loss from it.

no i am not agree with you. trading is not unpredictable job. in fact prediction about trading is depending on your experience, i you have good experience in trading and if you are studying the market deeply then i am sure that you can predict about trading in a better way. i think there some legends who have good experience about trading and most of the time their prediction proofs as true.

Developing a good level of market understanding surely does help, but it's not everything.

Markets such as the one from Bitcoin that depend on supply and demand, and then mainly the free market aspect, makes even the best traders experience losses from time to time.

In other words, no matter how experienced you are, there is always that luck factor that each and every trader has to deal with. In terms of percentages ~ 75% experience and 25% luck.

You are right that if a person will have good knowledge about trade and will have experience then it is not hard for him to predict about any asset in trade while if a person is new for trade or he has not learnt about trade then it is hard for him to predict and that person can lose a lot of their money if they will continue without knowledge.

Trading is truly unpredictable since you cannot anticipate the next valye of tge coin whether it pump or just dump down. I guess  all you need to have thare is the courage to do some trading, because sometimes when there is no guts regret is always beside it. Also you can have some study on it and good timing or on how to make some wise decision on trading.
Also luck is needed to it since price is unpredictable, traders need some luck to earn.

[TitanGEL]

You're true that trading is unpredictable job. It is very hard and you need to study first before you enter the trading world. Also there is a high risk in the trading. You can't predict if the value of the coin that you holds will goes up.

[KennyR]

Trading is completely unpredictable, but the same can be made as an profiting source just with the knowledge we have with trading. Importantly we need a good capital and time to spend on the observation of the price pumping and dumps to generate the buying and selling orders at the right time. This in the starting might be bit hard but little by little the knowledge acquired will help in profiting good.
