Sell or wait?

[cellard]

Looks like we have a clear answer: The correct move was to wait and profit from the massive pump, then get a lot more BTC after the pullback and keep waiting for the ETF, if the ETF is not passed, then you can rebuy with a lot more cash. If it passes... get ready for next level FOMO.

Wait til fridays decision go from there

Not really in bitcoins the price changes around Friday .. I think price of bitcoins is hugely impacted with two main events, one is New year and the other is Christmas the price of bitcoins take serious swings that time around. I would say we all should wait till the end of this year, maybe a big milestone is about to reach and we get greedy and loose.

why wait for end of they year when we have ETF verdict  today or latest Monday. i will not turn away from the screene in the next 8 hours . I would hate missing the chance of  selling on the bad news  before it goes down to 700-900 USD.

If approved then i want to see the greene dildos live

I will stick them all in my a** togheter.  Cant wait

[BigBos]

today is very much going vacillation between selling or not. many people are hesitant to make decisions because of bitcoin prices are so high. but, they are also free to sell, because bitcoin prices will probably continue to rise. I just wanted to give you advice, that follow your heart, and do not hesitate to take a decision. 

[royalfestus]

Why is it that difficult to get an inside information of ETF approval? There should be a hint at least and no one seems to let anything out yet

[BitcoinBarrel]

It would be absolutely disastrous to sell right now. Even if the price drops due to an ETF rejection, it will rebound eventually.

[JL421]

wait. because waiting for the price of $ 1200, after it was sold it was a good choice. besides, sell bitcoin in a hurry is something that can be fatal. but, for the moment, selling bitcoin is not a bad thing to do. but, it is better to wait for prices above $ 1,200.

So you are still thinking of selling if yes then I would recommend you to wait for few more months as the price is constantly growing and if it continues after 3 months mostly the price will reach 1600$ and that would be a better deal instead of selling it now.

Point is that you don't know what will happen after a few months. If you have made a nice profit right now, then it doesn't hurt to cash out a small percentage as that will give you some extra fiat as balance. In case the price happens to drop, then you'll be able to buy back more coins than you sold, and that for the same amount of money. That's what traders do as they prepare themselves for every possible scenario.

No i agree what i normally used to do is when their is a high growth i convert it to some altcoin and buy more bitcoin when the price is low again but as for this situation i have seen many analyst and people saying that we shouldn't sell it now and wait. I do agree with them because if you see the growth in price is really stable so if i see tomorrow the price of bitcoin became something like 1500$ i will surely sell for now i mostly see growth in the price.

We shouldn't be dependent on that since we might not recover our loss on that trade. As bitcoin continue rising up then you sell your btf for altcoins, certainly you'll end up with lose. Hence, if thou must use bitcoin, I suggest you to hold it until you're satusfied enough to sell it.

No i'm not saying to invest in some useless coin or some coin which has price changes daily. You can invest in eth as the price
barely increases or decreases. You can also invest in the dead litecoin but yeah we should only exchange we the price got a huge
jump is it is stably growing like now we shouldn't exchange

[Pierre 2]

I am personally on wait line.
I feel like I wouldnt lose that much cause I bought btc when it was around 450s.
So even 700s is ok for me (if its rejected)

Wait for a short time as the price decrease has taken place and moving downward. So it's good to use the opportunity and buy as much possible than selling to grab the profit.

I recommend to sell, the price looks down and this trend seems to last long. I was worried the incident earlier in the year 2017 will be repeated, that price drop from $1.100 to $800, and this is bad for us to hold, better is sell.

No mate. That's not a good advise because the news concern the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued an order disapproving the proposed rule change to list and trade Coin ETF was the reason why the price of bitcoin went little down but it will not affect bitcoin. Have you check the price of bitcoin lately ? I recommend you to hold and don't panic sell.

I'll be with your in that action, I will still hold my bitcoins despite the disapproval of SEC on ETF,  people just got hype that is why the price rise before and now this people who got hype are now selling their bitcoins. Let's us not fall for this trap, in the right time, the value will still increase.
Those who wold will certainly benefit and those who buy with the current price will get a short term profits.

We strongly believe BTC BTC price will up to $3000 this year end due to demand and supply.

NO any ETF effect on it anymore.

I like your spirit, you know? And I also strongly believe in bitcoin which is why I told the OP to hold his/her coins.
Meanwhile, to be honest with you the price per a bitcoin cannot rise to $3000 this year, next year maybe. Though there is a chance that the price would rise to the $2100 as predicted by the Saxo Bank last year.

Anything is possible with bitcoins in coming days either it can go much higher or fall back no one can be 100% sure what's gonna happen next but selling at this stage is not an great decision to make and its better to hold them till the end of the year as it is predicted that price will rise again at the end of the year.

[user27]

My opinion is wait. You've got plenty of time for bitcoin to rise again. The ETF didn't affect the price much so thats a good thing.

It means that community doesn't care what SEC's opinion about bitcoin is, it cares about what bitcoin community thinks about itself.

Yeah everyone was predicting that if ETF gets disapproval then price will fall back dramatically but it didn't happen, price went down a bit but that is manageable and may be next few weeks it will regain its position and cross $1200 mark once again so I think its good not to sell bitcoins at a moment and see where it goes from here.

$1200 level at this point is irrelevant. The price went up too much in such a small time frame. If you look at it from that point, we haven't lost any real precious ground as we are still a bit on the higher side. It's a great time for holders as they have seen the value of their holdings go up in value continuously. Short term fluctuations are not important for holders -- long term is all that matters.

Yes if you want to gain best returns from bitcoin then holding them for long term can be profitable and you should not bother about short term fluctuations as it will be always a part of bitcoin and we are still sitting at decent price level so I don't think there is anything to worry and price will surely be higher in long term.

Three is a difference between panic selling and selling to get profits, if you are happy with your earnings already and you think the price is going to keep losing ground then the right call for you is to sell and be happy with the profits that you got.

I never sell, only sell/buy
