Lessons from crypto in 2018

[desticy]

For me, the main lessons were:

1. Do not listen to other people's advice.
2. Always diversify risks.
3. Sell if everyone shouts to buy.
4. Buy if everyone shouts to sell.
5. Hold is not always an option.

certainly will be many valuable lessons that can be taken for lessons in the year 2018. Crypto continues to fall until the end of this year and certainly should be able to be patient and hold select good investments will determine. ICO project selection should be based on research also because many scams this year then selectively will be the thing to watch out for.

I learn two things in 2018, first never follow signal from others and should have alternative income out side main income. I have many strategy with good calculation but all fails because follow others opinion, even premium can't guarantee the successful. Red market in long term period also break all my stop loss point, many value go from my wallet. Those things is my problems and I wouldn't repeat again in 2019.

This lessons you have got may be painful for now but can surely help you manage your way of thinking about your strategies with your investments. Unstability is crypto's unique characteristics from others and also, the main reason why we get good profits.

valuable lessons when all know the shortcomings of crypto, and the drastic drop in prices from the beginning of the year, hopefully in the future, those who want to enter the crypto world, think even more that nobody gets instant benefits. Bubble in crypto is very dangerous if you don't have a strategy to overcome it

Many have stories about Crypto in 2018. I am very happy to be able to join Crypto because at the beginning of the year I was still able to feel profitable trading. But when 2018 went on it was very difficult to get money. But this is not a problem because we are still studying and this is a very good experience in 2018.

What i've got during 2018 would be, we need to be really careful when selecting a project to join, cause there are many scam project that keep on appearing.
Also we need to always keep our eye to the market, cause it could change so much in a short moments if we don't want to miss any good chance from it.

This market can change very quickly and we can not know for sure what will happen next. If you want to invest, you should choose the time of uptrend because this is the time when people are most active and whales are always the people that make the market grow.

Take profit, invest in project that has use cases, convert in stable crypto to invest when time is right.

HODLing is a stupid investment strategy. Cryptocurrencies are cyclical in nature with regular bull and bear market cycles that happen along much shorter time frames than other markets. Right now is a great time to start buying again and Dec 2017 and January 2018 were a great time to be selling. But as is normal human nature most people did the opposite.

[Siti Nurbaya]

There are many lessons that we can take when entering crypto in 2018, the ups and downs of coin prices make us more patient to face, there is a bch war that allows us to better understand the hash war that should not have happened. And all of this whale manipulation that we must be able to accept and we are again promoting crypto so that investors will trust the digital currency again.

[royalfestus]

I have been willing to see a thread like this to discuss cryptocurrency in 2018 and several occurrences and impact on the space. A 5 year individual in the space should never be affected with the bear market if he had prepared so well. My basic lesson is never hodl in a bull market, you can hodl in bear market. There is no advantage to have held on to one's profit at the climax or peak of bull price.

One thing I have learned from crypto is that when the price is booming and if we have already got earned, sell it and do not wait for the price to go down. As long as we have earned we need to sell the coins and then buy back if we noticed that the project is still good and active in the market.

The most important thing that I've learned is necessity to overcome greedy and always fix the profit, even with small parts.

Here are a few lessons I learned from crypto market in 2018:

- be more selective when choosing to invest in ICOs
- don't take for granted people's advices: nobody can predict tomorrow's price as market is too volatile
- most important: never, but never invest more than you can afford to lose.

[gabbie2010]

Some of the valuable lessons I learnt about crypto in 2018 is that Cryptos is a long term investment looking into it with a short term perspective is a big challenge to me and more so I now understand how big investors 'whales' can manipulate the price of BTC in reference to Mt.gox dumping of btc which invariably resulted in the drop in the price early this year.
