Take it as a positive thing happened to you because you can buy the cryptocurrencies for cheap prices and can sell when the prices bumping which makes the trading lot more easier to survive but not invest on random coins, only invest on those coins which can give the real profits in very long term. |

Its very difficult to make any money in sideways or bear markets. Look at how many capital firms went bankrupt during the 2008 stock market crash.
In a bull market is very easy to make money because usually there is tons of greed and no fear. In a bear market its completely the opposite and its not a good thing. For one the markets always go down quicker than rise. And this leads to many people entering a short way too late in the game.
Another issue is that any sort of good news can cause a short squeeze. For example if you traded during the 2008 stock market crash, whenever a bank released a quarterly earnings report, it had horrible earnings but the stock rallied anyways? Why did that happen. Because the earnings were bad but not that bad and it lead to a rally.
Same reason why at the end of the week in the last hour of trading there was usually a small rally which was nothing but shorts covering because they didn't want to hold thru the weekend in case there was positive economic news. With bitcoin its the same. Many are short but say that tomorrow the SEC says that "They MIGHT approve an BTC ETF" it might cause a crazy rally even though it gets rejected later on.
Lots of panic, choppy markets, fear and its not a good trading environment. Especially for a new trader like most people who discovered bitcoin recently.

Traders makes money from both the bearish and bullish market and it actually there strategies that put money in they pocket. Coins that can be traded with usdt can be flip and you will make money from any position you are holding. |

Personally, I just go in and outs in the market right now, if I see some opportunity to short Bitcoin then I'll go in and get out as quickly as I can specially if I satisfy my exit strategy, simply as that. And then there's the side of me to go long if the price looks very attractive and inside of my budget. But for those who doesn't want to short because of the risk involved, and let's admit it, its easier said than done. I guess the best advise is that don't do any trading if you're not comfortable with this bear market. Just continue to observed that market though so that you can also learn some valuables learns at this worsening market conditions. |

There is nothing differently needed for surviving in the bear market because crypto space is not providing such an opportunity to trade all the trends. It would be good only for long term holders and if you want to survive in this bear market just making use of cheaper prices for buying and then staying away until market get into dominance of bulls. Some people are trading in bear markets by using stable-coins. But, I'm not suggesting anyone to go for it because it would be much better if you focus on long-term rather than active short-term trading. How are you guys managing risks .
If you are concerned about preventing risks for your capital than it would be much better to go for long term based trading like buying now and holding for years. Because, it will be much better option for crypto trading and it is coming with absolute no risks involved. |

It's very risky to trade under these market conditions, but some people can still benefit from this bear market through several small pumps. I chose to stop trading because I still felt confused about having to start from the side and also still experiencing fear when the market continued to decline.

I think many people do not survive it, there are few that struck lucky and they did profit even during bear because there was couple coins that increased a lot and then dropped which means if you bought some coins at the right time even tough they are still the same price they went up and down so you could have made some profit during those days and that is seriously difficult to figure out which ones will do that but aside from that almost no one really "survived".
I mean we do still keep on investing and we do buy and sell and we do earn and what not but that doesn't mean we made profits, I have lost a lot of money and time to bitcoin, I realized since last June I have lost about 2 months of work amount just to bitcoin which means I worked for free for 2 months which is tough but its still "surviving" if it means I haven't left.

To be honest, trading when the bear market is a very bad choice, you should not enter the market when it's happening because it's likely that the market will stay red and you don't know when the market will recover, so it's better to just avoid the trading situation at that time. But if you are stuck in such condition, then try to be patient and find another place to get your money back, because most of it didn't back again or it will take a long time

If you are not a risk takers, you'll be better not to enter trading cause you'll only be broke. Having in trading during this time is really riskier than of the bull runs but there is no good way to make profit everyday even it is 1% from the money invested. So if you'll found uncomfortable with this, then stay relax and patiently wait for the bullish trend. |

Very risky when trading in a bear market, the opportunity to earn profits is only a little. This is the risk of a trader, they must dare to take all the risks that will be faced, unless he decides not to trade when he is in the bear market, exchanging money to money fiat is probably the best way for now. This is what I did when in the bear market came, in the last few months I never intended to trade.

In a bull market is very easy to make money because usually there is tons of greed and no fear. In a bear market its completely the opposite and its not a good thing. For one the markets always go down quicker than rise. And this leads to many people entering a short way too late in the game. It's a lot harder to hedge bear markets than ride bull markets. When people say "you can make money in bear markets too!" this what they often don't understand. During bull markets, you can just hold spot investments, and once you've seen solid gains you can rotate that capital into other markets that aren't exhausted yet. This is just like moving back and forth between alts and BTC during bull markets. When everything is rising, it's hard to lose money. When shorting, you can't hold a spot position. You need to pay interest and expose yourself to counterparty risk 100% of the time. And since bear markets are often characterized by long, sideways periods, you sometimes need to wait weeks or months for your position to pay off. That's if you don't get your shorts squeezed in the meantime. |

I am trader and my goal right now is how I will survive in this market. The movements are not normal and that's why I can conclude that market is now unpredictable. I do not know when is the best time to buy and sell cryptocurrencies. |
