[sergiorus]

of course there will be no bull run in 2019 so everyone should follow the advice in the OP right now, but there are still many options to make money even on this crab market

Personally I think that what I can do if bitcoin is not bullish this year, is what I have been doing, see that altcoin can have better growth due to the time and invest, and trade with the first 5 CMC coins following the line of less resistance, to take the direction that the market directs and to begin trading operations taking strategic positions to establish the obtaining of benefits.

I think I like that your idea of trading the first 5 coin in top coinmarket cap while at the same time, buying other altcoins or coins with very good projects at dip anytime we have some little cash to spare when the opportunity arises.

It’s just that the idea of trading some coins while HODL is only limited to those that have the knowledge of trading, not many people can trade, so they have no choice that to just HOLD and when price drops, they buy more pending the time, the market improves generally. By doing this, they will not miss much of the trader’s activities.

It is better to do the opposite. You should trade the altcoins that has good projects because they are the one who has more volatility compare to the top coins in the overall market. You should buy the top coins for your long term investment because they are the one who are more stable than the other lower market cap altcoins that can provide you a steady profit in the long run.

Yes definitely we cannot predict the future anything will opening in this market so we need to be ready to face everything possible if the best and if the market is going like the same thing in the previous time we need to face the the problems also so I think your statement was very useful for me to get face everything.

I believe there will be a bull run by this year as we can clearly see some changes in the CMC value which means it is slowly pumping, most probably the value of BTC will increase in the 3rd quarter as well where as alts will follow accordingly. hopefully we can expect some changes this year and let's believe things will bounce back soon.

We all know that 2019 ain't the bull run year and personally I'm prepared since 2017 for this year and the year to come as I think even 2020 won't be the bull run year. We can start thinking of the bull run barely after mid summer of 2020 when things starts to move in a different direction maybe followed by a big bull run.

what do you mean by ''bull run''? btc growing to $8-10k? if so then ok that's possible this year.
but for lots of people bullrun means reaching previous ATHs which is absolutely impossible this year and unlikely even in 2020

There is no reason to speak with confidence about the lack of growth. I also think that there will be no bull run, but I am not saying that this will be 100%

Does bullrun mean new ATH? IMO this sentence is irrelevant to the facts. Besides, we can not know whether this year there will be bullrun. 2019 has just begun, and we have long time ahead (3 weeks in 2017 had been enough). In short, we do not know in advance, developments will show as time goes on.

Right now we are seeing the start of such bull run. Here some info about current one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5134494.msg50711619#msg50711619

Mark my words, the end of 2019 will all bring us joy. I would suggest going heavy into crypto now before its too late, this will be one of the last times you can make fast money with very little effort.

we reached new ATHs several times in 2017 before those ''3 weeks''
that's the difference. we dumped so hard lots of people will still be rekt even when btc reaches $10-15k

For me, cryptocurrency is also not the main income.Although in 2017 I had thoughts to leave my main job,but something kept me and I am very happy about it.Do not forget that cryptocurrency is very volatile!About the fact that you can do without many things to save money You are very well written.Indeed, there are,, bad habits,, because of which spent a lot of money that could be saved.So I'm in 2019 (although already 4 months of this year behind) is not going to do anything actively in the cryptocurrency.I will wait for the bull run even if I have to wait not 1 year.

The best thing you can do right now is to make use of this bearish market. Invest for long term. It may not reward you now but soon the time will be there when the investors of today will become rich because of their timely move. So what i suggest is to do a job now, get some money, don't use all of them, invest a portion of it in crypto and keep doing it till the time comes to get rewarded big.

This is my second choice after day trading. For some people here in cryptocurrency in which trading is not for them, build up your portfolio and acquire more coins. It started already months ago where in the prices are very low and you can acquire coins at discounted prices. But, it's not too late slowly increase the volume of your investment on significant coins. Sooner or later it'll rise further until the end of more than a year of bearish period.

I don't think anyone should use bitcoin as a source of income for their living. Bitcoin is an investment, meaning you are taking some risks and you are willing to wait for a longer term until it becomes successful. Investing in bitcoin doesn't guarantee you a substantial return of money after a certain period of time and it also doesn't guarantee you a monthly income so keep working at your job in order to earn enough money to pay for your needs.

The best advice is the third one. And I don't exactly suggest to "live as if you're broke", but I suggest you to be content with the essentials. Luxury stuff and fun travels can wait till you get enough profits.

Everything still be fine even bull run won't show up this year. Not totally we want it and having a small increase may satisfied for me rather than to have that bull run which will bring losses after. Honestly, I'm be good now, prices are it low and everyone in any level could buy.
But as the market shows consistency of moving forward, we might possibly see bull run this year.

Investing is part of failure, then I suggest to all do not lose hope if your expectations are come true, so patience is important and wait for next chance to earn profits by holding altcoins.

How long we should be waiting? I know it will have that advantage but it is quite no good to be in patient all the time. We don't to be stuck and wasted a lot of time just to keep in waiting, the market moves slowly and so it takes most probably a year before we will on the ATH again. And I never feel good for that long. Better to have some investment right now and even we gain small amount but it is good enough rather than of wasting our time for nothing.

It should be, 'failure is part of investing'. It is indeed part of investing because you are not always right and you should expect things like failure but you should not feel down and always keep on correcting yourself and soon enough, you will taste the joy of success by being determined person in terms of investing in this world of risks.

I actually just tried to find other means of earning money. 2 years ago I was a full time bounty hunter and i was able to gain a kot of moey thru it. Since the market crashed, I had to find other means to earn money. So, I find a job to sustain my expenses and do bounties and trading on my free time for extra income. I invest some of my extra money from my real job and buying crypto since the market price is cheaper. I hope I'll reap why I am sowing right now somewhere in yhe future.
