It is really up to your strategy. Some people sell bitcoins to buy an altcoins when they saw that the bitcoin is stable and return back to bitcoin when its price are going to bubble. I dont think its an opportunity loss because the opportunity in this digital trading is never ending. You should risk to earn.
Yes that is right that it is depending on one strategy, by my person view is that it is a fact that losing selling bitcoin in present time is losing opportunity, Because bitcoin price will continue increasing its price and those people who will sell their bitcoin in present time it is for sure that they will never see the current price again, they will never be able to purchase bitcoin in present price, Therefore i think holding bitcoin in current time will be a wise decision and will be more profitable.

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

Selling bitcoin in the market should be made partially. Bitcoin price is very unpredictable it goes up and suddenly it falls.
That's why experts say that you should sell bitcoin in partial so you can have your remaining bitcoin to balance your earn and loss, the same way to apply in buying bitcoin. the trend of the chart of the bitcoin is the guide for the traders, investors in pulling out and buying in of bitcoin.
But if you want to have a good profit in the future using your BTC, a HOLD on the coin is a good way, just buy bitcoin before segwit and once all the fork has been made you can sell your bitcoin, a profit plus free airdrop from segwit is a good way to earn.

Selling it doesn't mean you're a loser but you're just being a human that sometimes you need to sell some for your personal needs. Yeah in some aspect your opportunity to be rich will be lessen but there's a thing that they call buy back method so still you have again the opportunity to make it grow. You see the chances here are unlimited and it's all up to you how you utilize it.
Everyone has different tolerance on the risk and satisfaction on the profit they can make, some are afraid that because of the significant increase of the price, it might dump and they will not be able to sell, they are afraid of the scenario that's why they cash out early, however, that cannot be called as an opportunity loss because you satisfy yourself with a profit and whatever happen to the price you ensure already that you succeed.

Well if you bought your bitcoin last year which the price of bitcoin that time is only $500 and you are still holding today and now you've sold it, then i think this is not an opportunity loss now because you earned a lot of money by just holding a bitcoin/s imagine that you 500 usd become 16k usd that is a lot of money and profit if you ask me and now the bitcoin is very volatile and constantly decreasing it is only you will decide that you will sell it or not.

Many posts discuss the possibility of exchange earnings with selling Bitcoin (and buy later). Other posts discuss the Bitcoin exchange rate, it seems that many agree there is a strong upward tendency and the volatility is hard to predict. It seems dat selling Bitcoin results in a serious probability of an opportunity loss. Selling Bitcoin can only be motivated by an (partial) exit. Do you agree?
Bitcoin volatility is so extreeme, I think its depend on how smart we are. We have to find time when bitcoin is reach the highest point in that period, and its so hard, no body can do that. I think the best time to sell is only when bitcoin price is rise about 30%, why? Because many investors are enogh with it then they will sell their bitcoin to get the profit.
Exactly it is but i think the best way is to hold it and it has proven from its previous performance and it is quite profitable from the day it has started.  Holding bitcoin so far has been proven to be, maybe even best option. Because you earn money by doing nothing, and that is best part of bitcoin if you ask me. Also you can trade small part, or sell it for fiat currency to buy some luxury in life, like i do.

Its really up to the person on how they manage to sell their bitcoin. Each one of us have different ways how to handle things base on our strategy moves. Selling bitcoin is not actually an opportunity loss. In fact, if you were holding your bitcoin for almost a year now and you are trying to sell some part of your bitcoin its an opportunity already because i know in the first place you wont sell your bitcoin in a low price and then the bitcoin your holding for almost a year is already gain a lot of interest. Holding and selling bitcoin has a big advantage no matter what.

You are assuming that the price will continue to rise. That is not guaranteed, so selling is not necessarily lost opportunity.

Selling may be the way to maximize your return, but it depends on the risk of holding.

Dont Sell bitcoin becuase its have a hardfork called bitcoin God. It is more incoming and higher value so dont sell your bitcoin. We know holding bitcoin is a risk and selling on a big profit is a good thing, but there's have a Big impact if will wait until bitcoin go to moon.

Normal reaction of a person who already gain enough even we are still seeing that the value still rising but if we bought it a year ago then its time
to enjoy our earnings, bitcoin is an investment where holders really got a huge gain after some years of holding it inside their wallets.

But at the moment, Bitcoin price is going down really fast so I think everyone is trying to sell their Bitcoin for other altcoin to get profit Smiley. Of course I think everyone know about the upcoming hard fork but people still don't know exactly the day it'll happen so at the moment they're trying to get as much as profit as they can by trading altcoin Smiley)

The volatility is so big and constant that you can say that is an opportunity loss. Over the last months, the tendency was upwards with its changes.
I think, in the long term if you sell bitcoin now, it would be an opportunity loss

I totally agree with you, we can not call that is the opportunity loss because we are profitable when we buy bitcoin at low prices and sell it at high prices, we are satisfied and accept the profit that we received at that time. We do not have any loss as long as we sell bitcoin for a price higher than the price we buy, if then, the price of bitcoin is still rising, we just missed a chance to earn more profit, it is not the loss. No one can predict the future, the opportunity loss is only when we are sure that the future it will still increase, but the fact is that nobody is sure about this, we sell just because we feel that profit is enough for us.

Of course when bitcoin selling high prices is a profit, but for now I will not sell bitcoin even though today it drops to $ 2500, maybe after the new year the price will skyrocket again and I will observe the price to buy bitcoin.

More the risk more is the return, so if you are holding for a longer time you are taking a risk against fluctuating prices, you don't know what the future holds for bitcoins, there are chances that prices might even go down in the future,so in the current scenario selling might not be an opportunity lost

If a person sells bitcoin after he grew up and brought him enough profit to meet his needs, he did not lose anything. What is the use of keeping coins for life and not buying anything?

you know sometimes the way to think that selling your bitcoin are a loss so true , especially when your prediction gone wrong. even when you try to trading bitcoin , the situation always like this : buy at high and sell it when the price get dropped.

better to hold it as long as possible , forget it and continue your normal life.

The purpose of selling must have been covered as well, If the purpose of selling the bitcoin is to take the money out of it and invest somewhere else, then I think that is not recommendable at this time because no other profit in the world is guaranteeing this much of profit. And if you are selling it to purchase on a bit low price, then welcome to the trading club. Trading is always advisable and the gurus of trading don’t care about the price, they care more about the fluctuations in a day.

You can always sell bitcoin when the price is high and buy it when the price is low. The main thing is to learn not to regret and not to check graphs after your actions  Grin

you are right mate if those people sell their bitcoin now, really they loss the opportunity of more earning money so the seller people need to hold their bitcoin for long time and wait to that time when its price goes to 30000$
