What if cryptocurrency market is not also good in 2019?

[AgatioX]

I think that then all will be disappointed in the crypto currency in general and many players of this market will simply leave. But I believe and I hope that by the end of 2018 we will see the growth of all altcoins

[Baofeng]

Then we should accept it. Maybe traders would need to make certain adjustment and investors will be much intelligent and see where there money goes.

However, I'm expecting a big recovery in 2019. In fact, I'm ready if there's no all-time-high this year, but I'm seeing 2019 as a year wherein the bulls will take over the market again and a lot of good news along the way that might push the price to more than $20K.

In my opinion there must be anticipation to overcome the market crisis,
and I am sure investors and traders will not remain silent,
surely they will look for ideas to restore the market situation and trace where the source of funds will go,
and I hope next year will be fine if it can be better than this year.

If you can't face it, just withdraw all of your money.

Do you know the different between noob trader and pro trader ?
Noob trader, they feel sad when they loss so they can't create the limit for losing meanwhile pro trader is able to control their emotion and they have a will to protect their investment by creating a limit !

[dollurs]

As a bounty hunter I'm very upset as I was not able to join the field last year. I missed it. But I had hopes that I could make some money this year. I didn't expect this much down market. So I hope and think at least in year 2019 we will able to see a good market condition. If not, I will have to find another job to make money.

In my opinion, by 2018 the market value will increase again and in early 2019 is still increasing, but by the end of 2019 the market will repeat the same in 2017 and 2018

Yes I also thinking like you. Cause market will recover after end of 2018. The 2019 will be great year for cryptocurrency.

[batang_bitcoin]

It is hard to know what changes will happen in 2019.

I'd look into the last months of this year before looking at the possibility if 2019 is going to be a good year or not. But if it won't do good like the way it is for this year, I'll remain myself as an optimistic person through the market.

If Bitcoin ETFs get approved and institutions and funds start to move in this market, then it should be very good overall for coming years.

I don't have too much hope with ETF but if institution money comes in. I'm sure that there will be a vast growth of the market and we can finally even reach back all time high's..

If the markets are not as good as the OP would like in 2019  just hold.

When getting into bitcoin and crypto you have to realise there are no
guarantees and also there is a long term outlook not just short term

[AgentZero23]

I am hoping for the best of the cryptocurrency market towards the end of the year and hopefully in the whole of 2019. I am expecting a great recovery if not a bull run and everything should be based on real market forces and not so much on speculations. However, we know that this is the market where anything can happen and things can be beyond our own control and influence. I am now thinking that if cryptocurrency will still be bad in 2019 I would reduce my involvement to as much as 75% and use my energy and time to something else...this is my way of diversifying and putting my security on my finances. This is just like saying hoping for the best but preparing for the worst..

What do you think?

I'm also thinking about selling my tokens and convert to usd to protect me from further losses. Like what you said I'm preparing for the worst and I don't want to gamble my money with the current market condition. I'm hoping this December will be seeing the market to have another bull run. But i don't want to speculate because the market is so volatile and the price could swing in just 24 hours.

How much more losses u think there going to be .Most alts lost 90-95 percent of there value since the peak

[AnhHoang]

The fluctuations in the prices of cryptocurrencies is their nature, they go up and down so people can exchange and invest. That is the unique thing about cryptocurrencies, compared to the other currencies, the often and big range of price fluctuations so Yes they might “crash” every once in a while. It won't go to 0 though.

I agree with you every years are different situation in the becoming years to come.Let us move on and think positive in the future.I strongly believe that the investor will not live in this crypto world instead they get challenge in the long way run.

We all have a choice and option to quit or to continue. Some people would get tired of the down trend eventually but those who will choose to be firmed at times like this would surely be rewarded for their patience. Market volatility in the first place is a natural phenomena in cryptoindustry. We should take this situation as something that is normal despite of the fact that indeed it worries most of the people. We should wait for the betterment in the market to happen.

People maybe disappointed of their crypto currency investment next year if the market don't turn out to good but that doesn't mean  many key player will quit  cryptocurrency because the crypto currency market have go through something worsten and it prevail in the end. Besides, only investors who are yet to have much knowledge about crypto currency will quit.

maybe we should focus on the fluctuation of rest months of this year. this year volume and percentage is dramatic. I have no mood to predict how is next year

Agreed! I like that punch line right there "If you cannot stick the heat, get out of the kitchen"
Anyway, maybe the OP forgot about the risks of getting involve in crypto currency. Everyone is expecting for the market recovery, we just didnt know when and how. Infact, what we're seeing right now is a healthy market. We can see the prices fall, but still managed to bounce back a little, somehow. If you think the bear have stayed in the market for a long time, think again. It took 8 years for Bitcoin to reach the price this far.
Still, we have our own outlook and decisions and I respect the OP's decision as he's just securing himself financially.

[TT2011]

According to the current trend, i am afraid that 2019 will be a big bear year. So i decide using most of my energy and time to other things, see you guys on the next bull market.

[Dreamace7]

Adapt or avoid.
There are opportunities to make profits in any market, bearish or bullish.
It gets more difficult in the bearish market, as opposed to the bullish where almost every investment yields profits.
If the market is too unfavorable, it's best to protect your capital, and wait for a more positive trend.

[icegeekfresh]

2018 is not over yet and ın my opinion you must not lose your hope, you remember btc was very bad at september and october last year, and we saw what happens, it increased to 20k dollar, so everytime btc can return to normal.
