When Will the Bear Market End?

[Gracie12]

I'm not sure there's going to be a mini-bull market in 2018, the market has been down for almost four months, and a rally should be possible.

I am a Hodler, I have waited for straight 8 difficult months to see the bulls return, we were having some semblance to a boom in the last 2 weeks, now market cap is struggling with 250 Billion $. How long are we going to wait?

Nobody knows when will be the exact, date,month or even a year for the bull market,, if you are a truly holder you can hold as long as you can,actually this is the hardest part because we dont know whats the future of the market, just hold,,believe and be positive...  ,

This is unpredictable and nobody knows when this bear market end. The good side of this we can buy bitcoin at cheaper price and increase our investments to get ready for the bull market. Yeah this is not always a bear market as this will bounce back soon and you just need to have enough patience if you want to be profitable in this technology.

I believe a lot of crypto-currencies investors who are investing for the long term are also hoping that the current bear market will end soon, but it seems that the trading market outlook is not very positive at the moment as there is not enough positive news to attract new investors from the traditional investment to switch their investment into crypto-currencies.

What positive news do you expect? Some analysts have launched a fake about the impact of positive news on the price in order to show their mind but at the same time shift the responsibility to the news. I don't believe that. It seems to me that bitcoin was popular as long as people believed that it would become a currency and replace the dollar as a reserve asset. But the actions of speculators have destroyed these hopes and therefore the idea of cryptocurrencies is coming to a collapse.

Investors sure are hoping that the price would go up soon. Maybe before, they are happy that the price is down because they would be able to accumulate more but now, it seems that investors are already out of funds to buy more and hoping for an upside. If you want to take advantage of what is happening now then better learn trading and accumulate small profit.

Well, bitcoin always surprise us so maybe it would make a comeback and show every body that he is still the king of cryptocurrency. Although the cause of the plunge is because of the delay of ETF, still it is a delay and there is a chance that it would be approve in which case it would make the price go up then.

Bear market cant end unless most of those that joined in 2017 gets so desperate to sell their coins so that Bitcoins price falls so low that Bitcoin start looking as cheap once again.

Nobody knows this right now. However, this year seems to be an upward movement. We are still hopeful.

[Indamuck]

It looks like the bottom has already been touched around the 6k level.  I've read some speculation that this bear market will last a very long time similar to the 2014 crash, but I believe this time is different.  Crypto is much more widely adopted and billions have been invested in mining facilities and equipment.  All these big players will not let the price crash any further.

The market today is bullish because there are a lot of people who are still doubting about the market price if it will pump in the end of the year or not plus the criticswho are creating negative speculations that's the reason why people cannot fully commit to cryptocurrency.

if the ETF has been approved then the bear market will end soon and the price of bitcoin will rise again. You have to wait until September, be patient

Buddy if you ask me then I have only one thing to say that no one knows when would a bearish market will start and the only thing i know is this time it will make another ath as a lot of people are waiting for the bull market and then when the bitcoin price will even rise a few thousand dollars then too the bitcoin will be all over the news again and that would give good PR so that more investors would invest in Bitcoin.

Just remember those years in where there was a huge and a long bear market of more than 2 years (without exceptions) and then think about if it can happen again or not.

[exstasie]

In July 2013, despite the correction being so short, I felt true despair. I don't feel that now. People are still so hopeful. I still think a mid-term bull trap and long term sideways correction is possible, but I wouldn't plan on an end to the bear market just yet.

Remember also: sometimes the second leg down ends with a higher low (2012, 2013). So a continued bear market doesn't necessarily mean new lows, but it does mean distribution cycle and no new highs.

You have way more experiences as you had in 2013, so you cant really compare your personal felling with those at that time. I am sure that big part of those that entered crypto in 2017 right now fells quite desperate. Most already left, They join to make easy fast money, but all they got was having zero profit or even a loss.

Maybe that's true. It sure doesn't seem like it.

I'm not talking about personal feelings, so much as observing the emotions of those around me.

Have you seen the bubble chart meme? I think it applies to these cycles pretty well (not necessarily in shape and price movement; I'm just talking about sentiment). The "denial" and "return to normal" phases are characterized by lots of hope. By contrast, "capitulation" and "despair" are characterized by, well, capitulation and despair.

It still seems like people are quite hopeful. They're hopeful that the ETF or Bakkt will save them from a prolonged bear market, and that the worst is over. So they haven't given up hope.

I believe we are close to the bottom. It will end the bear market. But ending of bear market does not mean that Bull market will start. We will have to wait for it until next year.

That's quite possible. There are usually two kinds of bottoms: capitulation bottoms (like the bubble chart) and sideways base bottoms. I'd love to see the latter, but have to wait and see.

End of Bear market is in 2 - 28 months (2 years + 4 months, December 2020).
Trust me, i am a doctor.

Me, too but we can't really do nothing about it. I'm praying so hard for even just a recovery so I can get a nice amount of profit from my losses.
But you should not be acting that you are the one with so much losses because some of the holders are more desperate because they are doing it for more than 4 years and above.

Nobody knows exactly when we all see bullish trend happen. Yes,  we are still struggling hard and seems to be the hardest part of crypto history. We believe bear season will come to an end and we just hope it will happen next month as we enter in the winter season.

Bitcoin is struggling indeed and no one knows when this bear market will end. Everytime price in bear market people are always come to the point that bitcoin are over or it will end. We just hope their is a good changes that cycle goes into bullish trend.

Make no mistake the ones that are struggling are the investors not bitcoin, do you see the technology or the protocol being under attack? Because I do not see it, some countries are creating additional regulations but that is it and that does not affect bitcoin that much, so bitcoin is fine and in fact it is improving but people are so concentrated in the price they do not care about anything else.

[inanilujimi]

almost everyone here doesn't know when the bear market will end.
but in the current market conditions there are many things we can do to make a profit.
if you are a holder you must remain calm because what is clear is not only you who experience this but most people also experience the same thing.

That is one reality that it is not easy for the people to predict the future price and to say whether or not the market will be low or high. The bear market will only end when we have a rising price in the cryptocurrency and that will be possible only if the number of participants for Bitcoin investment increases. On the other hand if the participant rate decreases more and more then we may not go out of this market.

Crypto reality is that bear market will never end. Price will always have its peaks and bottoms, take a look on stock market and companies that exist for years, they have their good and bad days.
People want price to rise all the time, to drop one day and then to start rising other day, do you really think that we live in perfect world? If you do you have some problem in your head. Fluctuations will never stop, think what you like, expect what you want, but market have its own tempo and we can just watch how it moves and try to predict that somehow.
