You can't survive in a bear market, you can only understand if you survived or not after bear market ends, this market is uncertain so any action is risk.

It's utmost crucial to have and follow your own strategy in trading. Whatever happens if there is a bull market or a bear market you buy and sell when you previously planned to.

I think it depends on the mentality and immediate needs of that particular investor. However, in my opinion, the best strategy is not to be too jumpy and if possible rely on long term HODL.

To survive the bear market is just to hold. If you cut your loss on bear market then you have weak mind as the coins are on their downs or lesser price than the usual price you bought it. Cutting your loss is a sign of uninterested what the market can do over time onto your investment. First you need to understand what bear market is and what would be the next season after that.

Cool.
There is not much of an option.
Buying back is the best way, in the same coin which you already knew how it flows.
Switching will just take you a lot more time to look back at its history and how the movement of price works.

Best to figure out to stay than making errors again. You did once then be better later.

I agree. The mentality and readiness of a person plays a lot in how his investments would move out, especially in times of losses, or in those moments when the market is not doing good, which in these days, has been becoming quite common. Therefore, I think one should really be patient and know what are the proper strategies to make sure that an investment would not go down south. It's easy to be blinded these days and go down the easy path to avoid losses; however, at the end of the days, all those strategies won't really be a good thing to do because it would not amount to anything good.

That is not surviving, that is just you not having a choice any longer. If you already know what you are doing, you could have sold when the market was overbought, and look forward to how the market is going to be playing out during the bearish trend before even deciding to hop in without forgetting how much stop loss is a necessity in a bear market. All these things I have mentioned requires knowledge and if you do not have them, and you want to trade a bear market, you cannot survive it and a lot of people only use patience as a cover up for their ignorance.

Yes buying back is better than experimenting them too much,but it is impossible to survive from the losses completely unless we sold the holdings at the beginning of bear market.

You have written so well. But what you may be missing out from your analysis is how do u know when to cut your losses I.e how to avoid a bull or bear trap? Crypto these days is becoming too unpredictable due to manipulation.

Although I had taking a risk at times to cut my losses and re-entry the market and it favoured me.

You can't survive in a bear market, you can only understand if you survived or not after bear market ends, this market is uncertain so any action is risk.

Exactly! What makes you survive a bear market in the first place knows what to do and if you do not know what to do before the bear market even starts, you are just going to end up caught in the middle.

I have seen how some people emphasize so much on patience, but I believe that is just a term used so as to make them just stick with the idea that they have made the wrong choice right from the onset and they are just looking at how they will be able to switch to the long term and look forward to the value going back to where they started from.

You have some valid point. What you are saying now is that, if any trader monitors his or her trades, it would be a good thing as the investor can place his or her stop loss and lose just a little than losing a huge percentage sum.

[jagdeepjd]

In the bear market if you know how to trade then you would have already cut your losses by applying the stop losses. But if you have been a true hodler and stuck with your favorite coins then I think averaging it down by buying back at lower prices is the ideal strategy provided that coin is not on the verge of dying.

Follow your trading strategy without letting emotions get the best of you. Get our of losing trades at 1-2% loss, it hurts but it's alot better than -50% loss. That's catastrophic.

[Daseento]

Traders must learn to let go of their emotions totally else making good trading decisions could be impossible. Also, the use of stop-loss can never be overemphasized, even with good trading knowledge, trade can still go south. Stop-loss is the way forward.

[frowsiter]

I would just go with whatever you stated in your conclusion and thats going with the market recovery and doesnt matter how much time it takes because most of the time it can very huge. For example someone who invested back in January might be in the state of shock as they invested at the prices which were ATH of this year. We have not found that ATH again since then and thus its really hard to wait for such long period of time. I guess its better to wait and look for an opportunity whichever is close to the entry of our trade and make things better.

I'm not doing day trading because I'm afraid of the super volatility of the market. For me to survive on the bear market and also to cut my losses, I added additional cssh flow. I always join airdrops and bounty campaigns. Through that, I will get other source of income.

[nydiacaskey01]

If its bear market then stay away from alts and keep you Bitcoin bottom line stop trading for a moment. Why risk your coins for a few profits in exchange for a high risk of loosing more. There are day traders out there who still trade and expects only small profits like 1-2% but for me its better than nothing.

[reflector]

Day traders are always survive in the bear market because currently sudden fluctuation is happening in anytime but day traders are earn some profit in this situation. So they know the sudden hype of market and how to choose the right platform. My suggestion is experienced traders are continue the day trading and new traders are investing in long term investment.

You can't survive in a bear market, you can only understand if you survived or not after bear market ends, this market is uncertain so any action is risk.

Exactly, the moment you still make good profit during the bear market is great but you will just know if you really did good is when the bear market ends. Cutting loss doesn't mean you succeed but maybe because you make a bad decision to buy that coin without any study and the result is negative. Always invest with good coins so you will not be force to sold your token even at a lower price.
