What strategy to follow before investing in BTC?

[elncrow]

Before doing business planning is very important things so before investing on BTC investors must need the proper information’s and how they will invest I mean total knowledge about BTC because it is related with market so any time price may fall or go up but it will be in a sustainable position so before investing investor need to follow previous record and data also.

I want to make some investment in bitcoin. but considering the market condition, I am confused that what percentage i should invest in BTC.
Could you please suggest the percentage I can invest in BTC safely? The rest of my investment will be placed in alt coins.

if you are afraid it means you are less confident and trust your investment investment by following a bounty campaign by following the ICO by getting rewarded from the investment, that's a bit in my opinion

I guess if I explain to you, chances are you will not understand. so the best advice is. you try to learn first some options for each plan that you will do in investing bitcoin or other crypto. especially you must have a strategy to overcome every possibility that can happen.

Figure out if you want to go long or short. Are you going short with every penny you have to invest, or are you going to go long with some and short with some? Long-term investors will pay a lower tax rate if they can hold for over 12 months, but as a trade-off, they WILL have to sit through corrections (likely seeing their balance go down 50% plus on paper as often as they see it go up). Short-term investors can avoid corrections if they are nimble, but they’ll owe taxes on the profits from each trade they do along the way (see: how taxes work with cryptocurrency to understand how the long term and short term capital gains tax work with cryptocurrency).

If you are confused to diversify your capital with altcoin I suggest you invest in bitcoin for now. Bitcoin prices will continue to move, you can get in some time especially if bitcoin prices will start back up you can get big enough profit. Once you get the profit you can reinvest in altcoin. This way I have done in the last few months, but obviously, I buy altcoin from trading results.

No one can suggest you for your investment ratio. You are the one who has to decide how much and which ratio you want to take risk. Market is volatile and it will remain, you have to see price trends and accordingly should buy when they are on downwards trend. Buying at a low price, gives us a little more chance to minimise risk and gain more profits.

At least 30% must be invested in bitcoin. When the market sinks, this amount may increase. Drawdown usually occurs after strong growth

[Hellokitty09]

How much amount you want to invest in BTC???
You want to invest for a long time period or a short time period???
Then I,ll tell you the strategy for investing in BTC.

First of all, you should try to learn as much about cryptocurrencies as possible. You should check the coinmarketcap to see the movement, supply, and 24 hour volume of the major coins. And, after that you will know enough about the cryptos in general. That will help you in deciding. I would recommend you to check out some good altcoins that you might find interesting. The altcoin Iota seems interesting, and within just few weeks it might reach 20$ per coin. Other alts like, ETH,and Monero are also some good coins for investment. Do not invest all your money into 1 or 2 coins. You should invest half of your money into Bitcoin and other half into altcoins. So in that way you can have some good profits.

[Abigail Asi]

Before doing or engaging in anything, planning is very important. You have to know what you are investing and dealing in before you start. Bitcoins volatility will remain and so when you know what you are engaging in you would know how to go about things

In my history as a small Bitcoin investor (call me a hobbyist) I have learned a fes valuable lessons. I initially invested in Bitcoin when it was in a strong upward trend (a few days before when it hit 5K for the first time). When it did hit 5K I did not sell my Bitcoin and held onto it. Bitcoin dropped back to between 4k-4.3k and stayed quite stable over there for a while. At this point I had not many a single bit of profit, but I wasn't too worried: I had Bitcoin and surely it would rise again. At a certain point it rapidly dropped from 4.3k to 3.9k. I sold at 4k, thinking i'd cut my losses and buy in at a lower price again. However, this rapid drop faced a rebound with the price quickly going up to 4.3k again. As I here thought the price would now surely rise to 5K and beyond, I again bought Bitcoin (the same amount, for the same price as the first time. Do note: I already lost money here). But it didn't go up. In fact, a few weeks later news came... "China ban Bitcoin". Rather than going up, the price gained a massive dip: it went all the way down to 2.8-2.9k at a certain point. I faced two options: sell Bitcoin, buy in lower (with a large chance of not buying in time), or hold on to what you have and buy a small additional amount in the dip. I decided to do the latter, which was a great choice in the end. From this point I also 'decided' to do the following: HODL on to the Bitcoin I have and don't sell it. Buy in dips and profit.

After a while Bitcoin would rise to 5k, 6k and eventually even 7k! (yes, this was only very recently). The sudden rate of growth surprised me and I was convinced a correction was due to happen. But I held on to my Bitcoin at this point, hoping it would go even higher. It didn't. Again, Bitcoin was faced with a rapid price drop from 7.3K to around 6K. I panic sold again (yes, I know I had sworn to HODL. I guess I'm a slow learner) at 6.4k. Bought back at 6.5K...

How much Bitcoin do I have now, might you ask? I'm not going to state exact numbers, but lets say it is about 3/5th of what I initially had when buying for the first few times. That is the result of not HODLing for people who aren't full-time watching the charts and who let themselves be led by their emotions: you end up losing money.

Currently we see Bitcoin being at yet again a very 'high' price-point (compared to it's history). Again I am faced with that choice: to HODL or not to HODL, that is the question. This time I am HODLing. If you look at the pricechart on a week-scale it might look like Bitcoin is currently trending downward. Now I say to myself: zoom out you fool. On the 1-month chart you can see that Bitcoin has risen from 6K to it's current price of around 15K. It is normal for the price to go down a bit after such an insane price increase. Don't panic, and if anything; don't sell. HODL. The most valuable lesson I have learned is: it might look like a good idea to sell now, but you'll probably end up regretting it later.

To all the newcomers and anyone else who doesn't want to make the same mistakes as me: for your own sake, just hodl on to it. You're probably not going to be that guy that always sells at highs, buys at lows. You're most likely to get less and less profit in the process of trying to be that guy than that you could've had when just holding on to what you have.

first I will like to tell you that there is nothing like safe investing. all investment come with risk but the level of risk is what differentiates them. if I understand you well you want to invest in BTC with Fiat. If that is the case then you need to buy btc when the price is deep. from my experience so far this year BTC is showing a very strong resistance when nearing 10k. i have seen some post here on BT on people contemplating why BTC is having strong resistance at price close to 10k. so if the price fall 7k-8k you may buy and hope for 20% profit in due time.

strategy I use before investing I can see what makes the bitcoin price move up and down after that I should be able to see and choose the right time to buy and the right time to sell so you can get a lot of profit.

a good strategy to invest in BTC is to wait for bitcoin and altcoin prices to decline. if the price of BTC and altcoin is rising then we must be patient waiting for BTC prices down. in addition to investing in bitcoin or investing in altcoin then we have to choose a popular altcoin or that has a good potential to invest in a long time.

People should do research about the company or to whom they wanted to invest and the second one is they sure that the company has a proof and before you're going to give the money make sure that there's a assurance.

There are typically two types of Crypto strategy:

Investment: taking long-term positions, focusing more on macro Crypto economics and asset fundamentals
Trading: taking short-term positions, focusing more on market cycles and technical analysis
Most traders use a combination of the two but will tend to give weight towards one over the other. Chris Burniske, author of Cryptoassets: The Innovative Investor’s Guide to Bitcoin and Beyond, covered this recently on Twitter, explaining that it is essential that you understand what kind of strategy is right for you. He shared a link from Investopedia, outlining the difference.

Well, if you are mentioning the work safe then crypto is not the right place to hold your wealth as it is a highly volatile market. Bitcoin has given much more than 10,000% returns over the years but at the same time, it declined too during those years. We have seen the recent correction with 65% price fall. You should prepare for the worst case scenario considering market volatility and the best way would be investing in smaller units at a higher frequency of time to take advantage of the every price level. The allocation of your capital should be determined as per your research strategy regarding the market.

Depending on your budget and if you are also interested in a  2 specific altcoin then you can split your money by 50-25-25 percentage. 50% in bitcoin and the two 25% for the altcoins you want, I do think that investing in bitcoin is a better investment than going for altcoins because bitcoin is already established and bitcoin the mother of all altcoins, so giving 50% to bitcoin would be a good choice and the other two 25% on your choice but make sure that it is also legit and good company when choosing your altcoin.

I don't think there is a very standard investment strategy. Each person's way of investing is different. Perhaps the most important thing is to have a complete investment plan, not to be affected by the sharp fluctuations in the market.
