What should you do in bearish market?

[BlueStackz]

The best thing a wise investor would ever do in a bear market is to keep accumulating more to the fullest of his capacity, bear markets are always a form of blessing in disguise, I don’t think there is anyone that has ever invested in bear market that regrets it.

I mean those that invested in very good projects and not shitcoins, most bear market investors end up becoming rich when the bull comes but the key to these investment are some of the things the OP listed, knowledge is power, especially when dealing with ICOs to put it money into, we have to have good knowledge about their product and team so we don’t get to waste our time on projects that are not worth it.

It seems that we have already moved out of bearish markets still this must be the right time to accumulate as much as we are able to, but within affordable limits. Instead of these, I do see many people have started to profit booking as they are already into profit zones as bitcoin has showed more than $1k price movements. These people will cry when they do see bitcoins will be testing $10k levels by next month .

When condition of market still lower price I will keep holding my assets and take buck for buying and investing my money, after price raised up I will sell all of it and buy back again after price is down, doing the same thing every time.

Doing this samething accurately is what makes you a professional trader.  Buying low and selling high is not as easy as we think and we should be able to make some analysis before investing and the skills and intelligence to analyze the market is the problem most of us face.

You are planning really well we should buy when the price is down then hold and wait, most it is not all the time bearish in market as if one day the price is down you can buy and hold until it recovers, waiting is the best thing to do at bearish market because price recovery takes time and to make money we will have to wait for our investment rise high in price.

The bear market is an extremely dangerous place for inexperienced traders, and quite safe for experienced investors. Personally, I prefer to buy on strong drawdowns of altcoins during a bearish trend, even if you have to wait a few months to collect profits, for me this is the best option.

Yup that’s a good idea. When you buy coins and the price happens to drop to a low price, you can still buy more coins and add to the little ones you have and wait for when the price will go up again. When it does increase in price again you will be able to make a lot of profit as the price goes up and extra profits if it goes up above the first rate you bought at. But there are people who wouldn’t have patience and just rush to sell at loss.

Still, the thing is that it is difficult to tell when the price has gotten to the bottom. Even if you do it as you have said, waiting for the price to drop to a certain and starts to go back up, it is possible that it can go back a bit and starts to drop again before you know about what’s happening. Just like how it has been in 2018, no one even thought it would go down to this level. So my best advise is that people with no experience should invest what they can lose, if the price doesn’t go up, then they wouldn’t bother much.

The hardest part is recognizing the bottom. We all know that buying at the bottom is the right thing to do, but in reality we keep asking ourselves "Are we there yet?".

Putting aside over 90% of all existing coins and tokens, let's talk about established ones. Being around for years, those coins have small chances of disappearing completely, so we can try to invest in them. So, here's my advice on when to start buying. Look at a coin's charts, and if its current price is around or less than 10% of what it used to be at some point in the past, we are most likely at the bottom, so there are great chances of that you can't go wrong with buying this coin.

While catching the bottom without a doubt is something that is very difficult to do and very few traders are capable of consistently investing during the period in which the coin reaches its lowest price the truth is you do not really need to invest at the bottom, as long as you have a very clear investing or trading strategy then you can still obtain great profits by capturing most of the movement of the coin but this requires two things that are not very easy to get, one is to have a winning strategy and the second is to follow that strategy no matter what.

To tell the truth, I'm pessimistic on the possibility of existence of such a strategy. Buying-low-Selling-high only looks easy to follow, but in reality you never know where the market is going from a particular point. I can assure you that many people sold a lot of their coins, "to buy more later at lower price", when Bitcoin hit $2,800+ for the first time ever in Aug 2017. But the truth is that the price was never lower than that since then.

Such a strategy is very elusive and according to many economists it is impossible to beat the markets in a consistent way, however there are many traders with decades of consistent profits that defy that explanation but as you may guess they keep their secrets very well guarded because who is going to give away the secret of making money in the markets to anyone, but the existence of those traders may seem to indicate that there is in fact a strategy that can allow you to make money in the markets in a consistent way and the only thing that you need to do is to find it.

Yes.The bearish season has given us great opportunities to start buying those potential and affordable coins and hold them after until we see a good price to sell them again.But for newbies,having this kind of market will make them panic and may resort into panic selling.Of course it won't help them at all so they should stay calm and relax as much as possible.

The downtrend market is a very normal phenomenon in the overall market movement. But for investors, this is a very unfavorable time because it is difficult to buy & sell and take risks if trying to buy a certain crypto code. The downward market often drags most crypto down.
So what to do to survive and live well when the bearish market happens??? Here are some tips for you.

1. SHOULD NOT CATCH THE BOTTOM IF YOU ARE LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE:
Normally, investors like to catch the bottom. Catching the bottom is a normal action, even helping investors buy cheap cryptos, but it is a huge risk. Therefore, if your knowledge and experience are not enough, it is the best not to see the price drop too cheap and buy it, because in fact you cannot know how much the price will drop.
The thing to do in this period is to jump outside and wait for the price to stop falling, start to create a solid price base or show signs of increasing to consider whether to buy or not.
In the three states of increase - decrease - sideways, the trend of rising prices always gives us the highest probability of buying cryptos.

2. FOCUS ON READING BOOKS, SEEKING FOR INFORMATION, GETTING MORE KNOWLEDGE
Our knowledge is very limited, no one can claim that we know everything in this market. Instead of watching the price board, charts, just find a book about investment, or crypto trading to learn more knowledge from previous people in order to upgrade your level to new heights.
When the crypto market starts to bullish, with the knowledge you have just acquired, will you invest better when you don't know anything?

Point number one is quite hard to tell I always fall on this one, maybe I'm not doing my assignment because you never know after purchase if it is still going to go down further, even if the price stop falling for a week, there is still no guaranty that it will not fall again, it's still a gamble for me.

indeed it requires good knowledge and experience for point 1. but all this time I have done it by buying in stages according to the analysis that has been made, with the hope that if the price still falls again, I can buy again

I would like to tell you my experience to explain your concern:

1. Before buying a certain crypto symbol, you should spend time to read and evaluate the project as carefully as possible. I mean here the Fundamental Analysis and update news about it everyday. As a consequence, you can find yourself its real value. So, when it fall again, you will NOT, at least in panic sell mood. Moreover, you should learn about Technical analysis to find out the support areas as well.
2. Please don't consider crypto trading is a gamble, it's just a game only. We are just game players and try to control our feelings before thinking of having anything

Even if you're full of knowledge and experience, i don't think you should always try to catch the bottom. That would mean trying to get to a point you're not sure where at. Especially in a bear market. But these are good points. I may just add to have notifications for your target prices and try to stay away from the market from time to time.

Yo, anyone who is investing during the bear trend should learn to diversify within the crypto asset class. There are lots of Cryptocurrencies in the market and each has different levels of risk and outlook. It’s best to start with coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum, and then go for altcoins that has higher growth potential. Then as for ICO, since you know that’s the riskiest thing there is in cryptocurrency, you should go for ICOs from companies with strong reputation.

I can not speak of others but to me I think in bearish market as of such as the one we are facing now, I think is the best time to add more cryptocurrency into my wallet, either through bounty or through investment.

All that mentioned were the basic things that needs to be done when one is making an investment into cryptocurrency. Apart from the investment point of view user needs to be prepared enough to make an earning out of the market. Unlike the trend there will be continued fluctuation, making use of the same help increase the investment with the profit earned through the volatility of the market.

most holders will hold their assets when there is a bear market. well, it's always done, and waiting for prices to return to normal. besides, some people take advantage of this moment to buy in large quantities, preparations for a bounce at prices.

[Sithara007]

When the market is bearish it is time for investment. With bitcoin as other cryptocurrency the market will show continues fluctuation unlike the market trend. Users need to be prepared for all market situation and should have the ability to make an earning out of the market volatility. As an user stated when the market is bullish everyone can profit. A separate board has lots of discussions relating the same on speculation board.

I beg to differ. An intelligent user will never make investment during a bearish phase. The ideal time for investment is when the market starts to recover. If you make investment when the prices are down, then there is a strong chance that the exchange rate will continue to go down for another 6 months or one year. In the end you will lose your patience and sell your coins at a loss.

Good point, we must need to learned situations like this, investors and traders often missed this event, thinking that the value already at the bottom will lead you to unsecure position, crypto is so volatile, we must understand every possible factors to trace the next movements.

Invest where your knowledge leads you, bearish and bullish do have their own opportunities to offer, know your capabilities to calmly observed before taking action.

usually whales and speculators take this opportunity.they trying take advantages from beginner investors that panic when facing market crashing.i am sure this kind of investors will gain more money from us.

[bitgolden]

You’re right op. During the bear market people should take their time to study the market and understand key trends. There are lots of people who complain about the bear market, but there are still people who are benefiting from it. Instead of complaining, it will be best for anyone to focus on research on knowing things can change for better .

Even now the trend is not bearish, it is not too late for making use of this current trend. I speculate bitcoin is getting ready for a rally up to $10k levels hence buying them now cheaper will be the one of the simplest way of making use of this bearish markets.
