The " I told you so " people are working on my tits!

Yes, you are right on this. It is not at all wise to take a suggestion from everyone. The best option is to do the research by own and take your own decision.

Don't give attention to those people who hurt crypto traders to the core. When things get bad, thy have a  way to rediclue  traders but if things go on well, they bow their heads in shame and be asking more about your strategy.

[acheampong64]

Well said. True believers set their target and sell at those targets no matter what. There are others who just want to hold BTC for life also. Thanks for the advise anyways, listening to others sometimes might cost you a lost.

[bungutko]

People have different views and opinions and what matter most is that your decision should be followed in the end. Knowing that  you had longer experience in the community,  you had more knowledge than the others.  Crypto currencies are unpredictable and volatile wherein some of people missed their predictions.

[BitHodler]

Crypto currencies are unpredictable and volatile wherein some of people missed their predictions.

Some people? You mean the far majority were far off with their predictions. If there is one thing this market taught us throughout the last years, then it's the fact that you shouldn't try to time the short term market.

Peaks are no peaks and bottoms are no bottoms. We have seen it last year on the way up and this year with the correction. I'm happy to be a hodler and not actively try to trade my way up.

I'm sure that if I did try to trade the short term market last year and this year, I wouldn't have done well. Instead, I just sold at what I thought was an overbought price and bought back at what I thought was an oversold price.

Simple and pretty much risk free.

[fudster]

Just curious at what price point are you going to sell?

 

He may not sell at all unless he badly needed the money. Those legendary guys knowns already how these works, they have been here for years. Don't listen to them when they say HOLD. Its all shit.

I wouldn't believe if he said he didn't dump and buy, even if he sold his btc for a price of less than $10000, he would have gotten much profit still. Hell I sold my ETH for $600 and bought back at $400, I still got more than 16 ETH after buying back.

[Dexion]

sometimes we need advice from our friends or people who more understand market conditions than us. but the decision is always there to yourself.

do not forget, that fluctuations are faster than your footsteps. market analysis, focus, and also patience is more decisive than a advice, I think that ultimately luck will be on our side.

[kendra1107]

I cannot count on my fingers how many times people, who are not even invested in Bitcoin, told me that I should have sold my

bitcoins when the price was at $19,000+.    Do you also get those "knowITall" finger pointers, telling you what to do

with your money/bitcoins? I never tell them what to invest in and when to pull those investments, but now that the price has

dropped, suddenly everyone has an opinion. {Couch investors}

If I listened to them when the price dropped from $1000 to $300 a few years ago, I would not have made more than

800% profits on the coins that I did sell last year.    Just take this little bit of advice today, DO NOT listen to those

couch investors.... they are too scared to take risks, but their mouths are the biggest when the price goes down.

Keep your advice, I already achieved a lot, by following my own advice.  

Haha! Said it right! People like those you've mentioned are so annoying! They love getting involved in other people's lives and have this thinking that they can make an influence already! If interfering with other people's lives could make us rich, I'm pretty sure most of us are now billionaires! Haha! Somewhat sarcastic...but true!

[Indrawan77]

Yeah I got that a lot, an annoying people that assumed they are a great advisor, if I knew 19k is the highest then I will sell it, but the problem is we didn't know that it was the last ATH, and they just blabbing and counting how much that I will got If I sold my btc, and now the price has fallen so low, so I asked them whether they would invest or not, they said that btc is a risky investment and doubt can get money from it, "don't dare to invest but like to comment", yeah I got that kind of friends

[kingkonjac]

I hear it as well and from people who have not any idea what the heck is btc, not only btc but fiat money and finance markets as well. I say to them " you told me so when it was 4k and it went to 20k than back to 6k, so if I have listened to you I still would be in loss. "

[r32godzilla]

Yes.Tons of free advices are got from such people who have not been ready to take risks.

[neliawesome]

I totally agree with that.People who never invested are those people who acts to know everything.Its kinda funny coz they keep on making advices even without knowing.Thats why if you had a plan to invest make sure that you had a what you called "PATIENCE".In investment its taking a risk and should have patience in order to stronger you mind and keep on your goals.Without patience you will surely struggle in decision making and may end up regretting something.

[jamesblue1]

Yes, It is always on us how we decide for our own coins. Who would have thought that the price would suddenly go down? What if it went up until now? Could be different story I must say. I'm just gonna hold them for a while.

[Blackrain13]

So that's how we should address them, couch investors. I remember also those times that when I shared and told everybody that I'm into bitcoin, their faces became frown and raised their eyebrows.

They keep on talking that it was just a scam and there's no future on it.

I'm happy that I never listened to those type of people that are working all day long with a fixed salary and don't want to take risk into something new like crypto's.

They are also no coiners.

   Sometimes listening and following others opinion will lead you to nothing. Specially to those people that has no knowledge about bitcoin and cryptocurrency. They are good in speaking but nothing in terms of work. Much better to believe and listen to yourself alone,be a great risk taker so that no matter what will happen you will accept because that is your own decision and strategy ,you can't blame anyone if you failed and you can't thanks anyone if you succeed because you do it by your own with out listening to others.

[nicolaz.zhu]

Sometimes humans are not satisfied, when they get the benefits, they just silent, but instead when suffering from mouth-blowing mouth loss began to grieve bitcoin as a disaster.

Here in cryptocurrency it needs to be done  with confidence not arrogance, developing the right habits is a big part  of becoming  a successful investor/trader ,if you merely copy/ listening their strategy or analysis you are hindering your own education process, its ok to learn from others  but we need to be focused on finding our own success.

[pooya87]

no i don't get that but because i have been around for a while (4 years now... wow) i get the opposite of it meaning they tell me "You told us so ... but we didn't listen." i have been introducing people to bitcoin whenever they ask for it and they usually also ask about its price. so for example when i told them what bitcoin is and told the price is $700 and they just forgot about it and now see it is worth $6k+ they kick themselves.
of course i try explaining again what bitcoin is and try to make them understand that the price is not all they can get out of bitcoin. the decentralization and freedom of using your own money is the more important thing.

[EffahTom]

Hmmm! It is always like that. But before you listen to someone's advice, just be patient and think it through. These are some few questions you should ask yourself : have some people already succeeded? What do I think made them succeed even though others are saying it's impossible? My dear, the negative talk will keep coming but I tell you, all is about determination. It's true many have failed. Yes, they failed because they are failure. Do you see yourself as a failure too? If so, then don't even start! Just believe in yourself and trust that you could make it and you would in no time reap the benefits.

[Jet Cash]

You need to do your own research, and form your own opinions. Most people are unbelievably stupid, and just believe the pap that they are fed by established  news sources. I find it incomprehensible that nearly 50% of the UK voted to stay in the EU, when it is obvious that the country has been in constant decline since joining, and has seen the theft of national assets and pension funds. The pound now is at 30% of its value when we joined. If people are that stupid, what chance have they got of understanding Bitcoin. They probably believe that their fiat bank deposits are real money, and more secure than Bitcoin.

Majority of people will always put their noses in other people's business. Some people love to "coordinate" other peoples life, but they can't do the same for them selves...
They would rather deal with other's people problems, than to deal with their own. I guess that is some kind of escape from their life...
Its annoying that is for sure, but in the same time it is something we need to learn to live with. People like that will always exist.
