When to get in and get out in Bear/Bull Markets

[ash_waz]

Guys, I am rather new to trading. Initially when I did get into crypto currencies my idea was to select a few coins and HODL until their value appreciated and maybe cash out some tokens whenever i am in need of money. Little did I know I was in for a big surprise few months into crypto currencies the market was so volatile.

However from what I noticed was if a trader, learnt to sell off in the high and then when the market inevitably pulls back we could secure ourselves a much higher position in the same tokens or different but for this to be done we need to be pretty good in our TA i guess and I am now very determined to explore this side. Can anyone please advise me how I should get started, some recommendations of what to read, what to watch and also the risk associated with what I plan to do.

Thanks so much.

So you are basically mentioning about Technical analysis which being used on short tradings. This might be easy to see from other traders but yet the hardest thing to do when we do make trades. Entering on lower price and selling at peak would be just like a guessing game since not all price movements are correlated or precisely predicted by those indicators which means decision making would really be crucial in this matter.

[ash_waz]

Yes you do have a point and I understand technical analysis is not the only tool to be used but definitely worth learning right? Plus I really don"t intend to do it as a day trader, to be honest I am trying to capitalize on the next major bull run like what we saw in Dec 2017 and I was thinking learning a bit of TA wouldn't hurt too much. On a day to day basis what you mentioned holds absolutely true, its more of a guessing game and the potential of me left with nothing is very high indeed. :-)

You can get in the bearish market when the altcoins are in the accumulation some for a very long time and you can get out from a bullish market when altcoins make a new ATH (All time hire).

The concepts of Accumulation, ATH where can I learn more about those?I am so bad at reading those graphs and the internet is just overwhelmed with so much of information I am a bit clueless as to where to look and what to look for! Thanks so much

To have this ability i think we need in this market for a long time, it's called experience. I try to use Technical Analysis sometime and combine with news, but this market is really unpredictable. Just experiences will help you.

I agree with you. this market is unpredictable. The techniques you will learn, will only increase your chances of earning money. but not too much

As you noticed that selling at high point is always good thing because gradually we always have opportunity to buy them again at the low rates. For example the current situation where one could just buy more bitcoin now and thus regain the profits over the time. This is how it works in the crypto currency world. We always have to be very keen about the crypto ups and downs as they do make us good amount of the fortune.

I would always say that buying the crypto at low and selling at high and again repeating the procedure can bring the wealth that we always wanted.

When it comes to learning, for finding your way to the forum, you have made a great progress the next is to discern what to read and when to act. The market is one place that humbles the wise that when it seems all is going on fine according to your plan, you are taken aback overnight. The best time to enter the market is when things are down like we have now while the time to exit is when you have made decent profit rather than maximum profit which a lot people always wait for only to be caught up in another round of volatility of the market.

I'm still learning in crypto trade, I can only suggest that you really need a source of information, because good or bad news is very effective in moving the value of a cryptocurrency, a simple example when there is a coin into a large exchanger automatic volume will increase and the value will rise, or if there is any news about crypto that cooperate with famous person.

Yes and in my opinion, we need to sell when we fell it is enough to set a target from the start buying. Then forget about it after you sold all of them.

If you are looking for that, you can know or see a coin's ATH (All Time High) in cmc (Cryptocurrency Market Capitalization). You check on the history when you scroll down. https://coinmarketcap.com

If you let yourself to be greedy then most likely you would really be caught on another round of volatility of the market which would result on having an another waiting period or duration for you to make such actions.
Getting out and Getting in would always been a challenge but if you are a kind of trader which do have faced many kind of situation then you might able to figure it out by yourself but this would really requires time.

well so far the market is very volatile, i try to take advantage of down / up the price but it's a bit difficult, not as imagined, so if you ask for advice on others, i think it is not very helpful as you have to do it yourself.
now the market is down, will you try to come in?

It is by your own hands and midsetting because we have different options and choices when we will in to get in or get out. The only thing i can advise to you is to perform trading and find your mistakes then, adjusting to it by not using so much emotions.

this strategy will only work if what you are investing in has real potential of rising up. for example bitcoin has that because it has real world usages and that means its adoption will grow and with it the price will rise in long term. so it is a reasonable investment.

but when it comes to altcoins and tokens specifically things aren't as good any more. they don't have any real potential and it is all speculation about when they are going to be pumped. that means they are best for short term speculation and trading not for investment and holding.

[dadanpradana]

Buy Altcoins tokens when Bearish or Red market.
Selling Altcoins tokens when Bullish or markets are green.

because if you buy a token when it's green then when the token falls red you will be surprised.

The bears and bulls are really great players of this market, basically they are players for stocks, forex and every dam thing that we trade. They represent the situation of market, where bear means market aint doing great and there is no much liquid capital flowing into the market and on the other hand there is bull market where the market is healthy and huge money is driving into it. This tells us that bear should be taken as positive approach toward investing BUT not selling your money. And bull should be taken as exit period and not the entry period. Simple!

You might be looking for an A/D indicator (accumulation/distribution) that is quite precisely described at Investopedia. I would recommend you to start with one or two indicators at most. Go through the A/D, then try to read something around MACD and RSI. These are proven by time and very robust.

Choosing the right strategy is the basis for Bitcoin trading, because the price of Bitcoin can change every day, this daily trading aims to find a quick profit from the movement of Bitcoin prices in the short term, so you should pay attention to support, resistance and moving averages to make sales or purchase.
