You lose only if you sell

[Nerf_herder]

If you make a profit can it really be considered loosing. Even if a month down the road you could have gotten more per coin?

Just don't consider you are waiting for more than a month, sometime it will take more than a month to recover profits on your investment.

I think the correct is, you only lose if you will sell lower than the price that you got your coin. We know that people in the world has different needs and investing some money in bitcoin or any cryptocurrency doesn't have any assurance that you will keep it for a long time because there are some scenarios that you need some money to pay the things that you bought or the things that you need. So as long as possible, just sell it for a higher price so you will not experience a loss.

Mostly people give up on their coins when their coins are experiencing some bad time or it is speculated that the coin does not have any secure future.

Such scenarios make the new traders panic badly, eventually making them leave their coins. Here selling will definitely be at price lower than that of buying. I don’t think so people deliberately sell at low to meet their needs.

Waiting all the time so thats how btc world is so if you have that know how to patiently waiting why not. Just to skip losing but it is a part so face it than run of it.

For me it's not a lose. The best strategy is sell at the peak and buy at the dip. You never know what's coming so better to take advantage of the ups and downs. But this is only for people who has all day to monitor the price of bitcoin but if you are a long term holder then there's nothing wrong.

The thing is long term holder is more or less sure to make a profit but short term traders can lose just as quickly as they earn. Personally I don't believe there are many traders that consistently make a profit so I would always advise people to just hold on to their coins.

There is no difference between them people are came here to see the difference if i tell you something in very simple words. So i would say that long-term investor struggle for their future while short-term investor don't struggle they just sell and earn some extra profit then go for another coins as well because they are only looking for money.

Not only bitcoin world but the whole crypto world is full fluctuations. We need to exhibit too much patience in order to succeed in the crypto market. I believe that if we are treating bitcoins as long term investment, we should be patient with our coins. They are assets of the crypto world.

Well, all this is just happening as a result of panic of what the outcome of 1st August meeting would be. It is a great avenue for investors to buy more and hold pending when the price double again. There is a tendency that the  price will decline more before reaching strongest support.

It is quite normal for people to make bad decisions when some changes happen specifically when the thing happened is quite unusual or new just like the spilliting of Bitcoin where its price is obviously dump on some reason resulting for people to sell or to panic on managing their Bitcoin. But see and look how this changes take place and what is the impact it made to the growth and development of price of Bitcoin for now.

Yeah, and majority of the same happens with people who are holding a small volume of bitcoin. Large volume bitcoin holders never panic as they have the chance of price manipulation. The small volume holders will be always in panic and focus to get the best which ends as a bad decision at instances.

You lose when you panic sell. Selling is part of trading and as long as you sell at a profittable rate, its not a loss. On the otherhand though, if you panic sell and sold coins at a lower price than when you bought it, that's the only time you lose.

But in my point of view, long term investors definitely get more profit than short term investors. Because now i thought if i never sold my all bitcoins than in this time, i would be gotten 90% profit from my actual use of money. In 2015 i have 10 bitcoins and with the time, i sold them and now i have only 3.5 btc , now you could think that if i hold my all bitcoins then i would be gotten biggest profit from them.

Nope, if holder have a huge amount Bitcoin but they not have any knowledge, experience about the Bitcoin market and cryptocurrency world, they still loss their Bitcoin by panic and like newbie.

I don't really agree with you to some extent. All depends on your point of entry and compared to your point of exist. If you buy bitcoin when the market value of Bitcoin is low and sell when its value increase you have not lost anything in the process. Although some people sell out of panic and at the end sell below their point of entry.

That's true and I did too. But I learned from my past experiences. Weak hands tends to sell at lower price if the coins is dumping. You got nervous if you are losing. But if you have a good coin, like in the top coins in coinmarketcap there's no problem, it will rebounds later.

The fact of the matter is that trade to date can bring a good daily profit and it is not worthwhile to spend all your coins to the end. Perhaps some interest needs to be left for storage and everything else to trade. Thus, you will have the incomes of reality needed for every day.

You got the correct lessons from your experience and the guy that opened the thread said the right thing. I investigate my past sell orders, all are in profit right now. At the time I sold them, I had thought I made profits. I was wrong.
