Sell or wait?

[batang_bitcoin]

This year it is difficult to predict the growth of bitcoin. Perhaps there will not be any special changes, it will simply go down and then stabilize.

It may be difficult to predict bitcoins growth but there is one thing that everyone will be assured of. If you will going to keep the faith and hold bitcoins just wait for a while as the price once again reached $1,300. But I don't agree with you that it will simply go down and stabilize, it will be down for sometime but it will increase.

Selling istead of waiting...sell to spread the market and more possible income..

i am not in favour of selling bitcoins in present time, because we have waited for such a long time for the price of bitcoin to increase, and in present time we can see that the price of bitcoin start increasing, therefore i think it is important for some more time as it is expected that very soon the price of bitcoin is going to cross 1500 USD level.

I know why you are telling us, because you know in future and also in coming time bitcoin will be reached at more price, than definitely, it give us more profit. But you know, not everyone holding bitcoins for a long time. Mostly people use the bitcoins for short term profit like trading, they buy it in a low price and when they see now bitcoin give them double price than they sell it.
But i also with you, because now i prefer to wait not sell the bitcoins right now.

People who are interested in short term profits will keep on buying and selling their coins with each and every fluctuations to make quick profits but those who treat bitcoin as a pure form of investment will not bother about short term fluctuations and will prefer to hold them for a long time to make some higher profits from it.

I don't have any plan to sell them at a moment as I am very much sure that bitcoin will reach to the price of $1500 very soon and once it achieves that price I will start selling my coins as that would be the best price to sell bitcoins.

[giveen]

I had thought that the sell when the price of bitcoin is now going to be very profitable. but, seeing bitcoin prices continue to rise slowly, making me think to hold bitcoin I have had in a very long time, probably about one year, because it might actually be a huge advantage.

Just hold your coins don't even think about selling any of your , i agree currently the price is growing really slowly compared to past. If you notice in a share market also price increases slowly itself so think bitcoin as a share market as we can't always expect it to grow 200$ a week.

It depends on the exchange. At this point the only exchange that might go through a serious price increase is Bitfinex due to all the withdrawal problems they are experiencing. Main point is that if the price at Bitfinex happens to reach such prices, that it won't have any value as it isn't the result of legit demand. Just wait for it -- if things go somewhat back to normal, the price will come down like 10% directly.

Actually it's not a problem if you sell your stock when your see it's the right time to do it, as long as you gain profit from it. But if ever you are not certain with the decision then you must wait for a long period of time so that price continually rise high and there you are going to sell your stocks that you hold for several days.

Not all people are able to decide that which time is better for to sell his coin and what the best time is to buy more and hold that is why I will suggest that in this time it is not good to sell your coins because the price of bitcoin is increasing keep your coins holding for more longer and the time will come when it will be at more than $1500.

Bitcoins will surely achieve that price in coming months so it would be really good to hold them for next couple of months and sell t hem when its allowing you to make even higher profits as the profit margin will be low if you sell them at this price.

Just Hold!

Don't fight against the trend, if you have a good chance to buy more bitcoins do it now, the price is rising and I don't think it will dump soon. It will continue to rise but make sure you are updated so you will know when to sell you bitcoin, the moment it starts to dump, it's a good time to sell, with that method you can make easy money in a short term period of time.

Well, the current price is very high. Maybe selling at this time will not make you disappointed, because the price of bitcoin is currently really very high. But, if you're a little patient, it's possible the bitcoin price will rise to over $ 1300. Well, but if you really need money, there's no harm in selling it right now.

If you urgently need money, then you can sell some of the coins. And if the opportunity allows, then you can leave some coins for the future, there are good prospects.

It doesn't really make sense to wait with cashing out till the price goes to $1300 or slightly above that level. If you want to cash out right now at nearly $1280 then it would be wise to do so right now. If you wait too long, you'll risk seeing the price go down, and for what? It's just a $20-$30 difference. Difference is too insignificant to wait for. If you want to cash out profits, then do it right now, if not, then keep holding. It's not that difficult.

Same reason when it goes up, why risk selling it now when it will increase in a few weeks by $20 to $30.  So the decision depends on the holder, if he has a target price then it will be great if he can attain that target price when he encash.

Point that I tried to make -- when you have made a decent profit, that waiting for the price to increase $20-$30 more is basically peanuts. I rather prefer to secure a certain part of my profits at given price, than waiting for the price to increase a few bucks, where I risk seeing the price go down. If the price happens to go up further, I have enough coins left to benefit from that increase. If the price goes down, I can use the fiat from the profits I secured to buy back at lower levels.

As suggested bitcoin price is the increasing side, so why to sell rather than just holding for a few more days or weeks and benefit out of the price increase. None should be forced because even now the increase is not assured, so by tomorrow if price falls the user who made decision on our suggestion will feel bad. So it's good to make their own decision.

I'm holding some and using partial to play with some Altcoins. Ultimately however, I'm sticking with my BTC stock.

[phr0stbyt3]

If there is something you really want but you don't have the sufficient savings or funds then you should sell your bitcoin if you are in a profit. But if you recently purchased bitcoin or the thing you need is not so important like maybe a second car then keep it , it will surely increase in future.

I agree if you see that you are already in a profit or even if not, if you need money badly, it is the best time for you to sell.� At the end of the day it is what we need that is more important specially if the need is urgent.� But if you do not need money then I can say hold.� Bitcoin will increase in price and possibly break its ATH again.

I'm surely not going to sell my bitcoin at such a low price for sure. As far as i can predict i feel that i won't have any sort of emergency in this year. Even if there is i won't hesitate to sell it at a profit like this.

[MiladMax]

Selling is not a good option at the moment.

[Kyraishi]

Just Hold!   

Maybe, that is always easy to say "just hold" instead of some valuable answer but let's imply that you are right.
Still, if we consider the very optimistic scenario in which bitcoin will increase its price up to 2000$ before the 2017 will end, then investing your BTC instead of just holding it, might bring you even better returns like that.
All you have to do, is to choose the correct way to invest, where you reduce the risk as hard as possible, but you cannot be afraid of small interest.

For example I can suggest just going into poloniex and using their lending services. It is pretty much risk free because the owners of the website are covering you, plus the rates are really decent if it comes to lending the money.
It is all settled in bitcoins, so you are getting interest every month from the money you have converted to BTC, but also you are gaining even more profits thanks to the increasing BTC price.
