What should you do in bearish market?

[Russlenat]

I agree with everybody who already said that this is the best time to buy. But before that if you already have your own predictions before the market crash, you should have unload ALL or half of your investments already. This is to limit/cut your losses, strategy like this are very effective in managing risks. As of this writing, we experienced a new highs of support since at the start of year 2019. It's hard to say that we still in the bear market, unless we have the full picture of the first cycle.

When others are selling during the bearish market, you should do the opposite of it. You should keep on buying coins that you know that is good for long term holding. Bearish market is the best time to buy coins that has a high profit margin. There is a saying that says that the crisis comes with opportunities and we can apply that in trading/investing.

before bull market happen we have to ready by add our cryptocurrency stock.bitcoin or other altcoin that have big potency in market must be in our bag.don't ever regret if someday our pick list not realize and we didnt collect it.maybe binance token , litecoin be most collected coins now.

Research can help you but it doesn’t really mean that you will be hundred percent accurate in knowing what the price is going to be. It’s really difficult to pinpoint when it is going to be and what it is going to be. It’s not really good to buy when there is a bull run, it’s best to buy whatever you want to buy before the bull run happens. Though I have been seeing some people claiming that after the next bull there’s not going to be any other bull. We are not really sure of that, there is every possibility that there will continue to be bull run. But, always trade wisely.

The bearish market is the best market available for acquisition of altcoins because the value is low and the evolution of it is predictable.

This is the most common mistake being done by the new users. When I was new here, I was also thinking the same way. I gave more importance to the alts and accumulated a large number of different alts and tokens. And then I learnt my lessons the hard way. First of all, the price of all the alts are dependent on Bitcoin. And secondly, most of them were created to poach the users of Bitcoin (although there are exceptions such as Cardano and Ether).

If you look at the technology behind these alts, you can see that none of them has the capability to replace BTC. They are having value just because some people think that they'll also give good returns like BTC.

Thats indeed a huge mistake, accumalating more than 6 to 10 alts as a way of diversifying their investment. I mean not all projects have the same outcome. Most of the people who have been buying alts during bearish season, ends up selling every little gains they made to cover the losses and trying to make it break even.
It was then I remembered, its more profitable to buy during pre ICO, but of course choosing the most promising project will be the most hardest part.

Collecting few alts in the portfolio is not bad at all provided you choose the right Altcoin. The price of the altcoins will rise as the market will go in uptrend but to get advantage you need to hold it for some midterm duration.

Also it is advisable to keep atleast 30% of the portfolio in BTC always.

[Mr.Good]

It’s really important for seeking some information, spending time to read some things about cryptocurrency and the general economy all around the world. I usually avoid to sell my coins in bear market, i don’t wanna lose anything. So i’m waiting for better price.

Of course, if there is an opportunity to wait for the best price, then most do.
But there are situations when it is better to sell some tokens and coins at a loss to buy others.

Most of the times investors get upset in the bear market season but ideally this is the perfect time to reassemble your assets for another cycle of increase of the volatile crypto market. This is not the first bear market that the crypto market has experienced and it would not be the last so i don't see the reason why some folks would always want to whine about it and making it seem that crypto is dead. In the bear market invest into potential but cheap cryptocurrencies, hold and follow up on your investment portfolios for the crypto market to rise again. This is a complete cycle of making profit yet noobs in this space don't understand it lol.

[naturerock]

I know this sounds simple but the only thing you can really do is wait out the bear market and keep on accumulating coins for cheap.  Fortunes are made in down times like this so don't miss the golden opportunity or you will regret it.

Yep, Bearish market is the best opportunity to all investors who wanted to make profit in the future. Before the bull comes over we should buy at the dip. But we should consider not to sell even the value get lower and lower because it will just make us feel more lost. Just hold and benefit in the future.

not all altcoins have good potential for the future, although there are several potential altcoins, but before deciding to invest more in them when a bearish market occurs do research on the coin itself whether it can last for a long time or vice versa. because there are some altcoins that cannot follow the movement of the bitcoin price when the bullish market occurs

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?

I think newbies should know about the first tips that you wrote. It's almost impossible to predict bitcoin price, even stocks market players also avoid to buy stocks which the price is going down. It's bitcoin, even the risk of this investment is bigger so actually the right time to buy is in the bull market and the next step is try to find correct time to sell it again. The second tips is little but hard to do, I meant is although we already read all articles, news and etc in order to get more information but there is also a big factors that influence bitcoin price which we called whales. We don't know what is their plan.

We will never know the plan of the whales because they have different strategy than us and they can do whatever they want because they have a group of whales so what they decide is what is going to happen. Whales are so powerful and we should not rely on news because it might be a trick of the whales to manipulate the market since they can create fake news and spread it out. The best thing you can do is to learn how to read charts to have a more realistic prediction about the market.

If you’d ask me, I will say that you should buy at anytime you feel is right or at anytime you think you can afford the price. It’s difficult to tell when exactly the price is at the bottom. You should use the recent event that took place as an example ; everyone was expecting the price to fall more to $2000, but instead of that happening, the price took a turn around $3000 and went up to $5400. Those who bought at that $3000 were lucky that they did buy at that rate. So you should just do the same.

In a bearish market, if you are noticing signs that the prices are getting stabilized, then it may represent an ideal opportunity to increase your holdings. But that depends on how much purchasing power you are having at that point of time. Anyway... always remember one thing. Avoid panic selling. If you are short of cash, then selling some of the coins may be necessary. But it should not be done in haste.

In a bearish market, if you are noticing signs that the prices are getting stabilized then it may represent an ideal opportunity to increase your holdings.

In a bearish market the price basically declines and its not stabilizing  but buying at the dip is a good idea if you are an investor that likes to hold for a possible profit  . you dont need to wait for the price to stabilize before you buy because when it stabilizes that is a sign that a bear will be ending and will now be replaced by a bull .

always remember one thing. Avoid panic selling. If you are short of cash, then selling some of the coins may be necessary. But it should not be done in haste.

Selling in a haste is beneficial especially if you badly need the cash because the price of the coins can fluctuate and worst it can go down more if you will waste your time waiting .

I have swing traded during the last bear market. Especially the past few months have been profitable since a lot of coins started pumping out of nowhere.

I didnt said its bad. Lets say 5 maximum alts in my portfolio (thats my standard limit, I sometimes consider 6). iMO, midterm duration isnt somehow very profitable. Well, it depends on the amount you have invested. Huge capital means huge returns.

I even have more than 30% amount of Bitcoin in my protfolio. I am still skeptical in diversifying my investment for more than 7 alts, I might end up lossing big chunk of my asset lol.

The first thing you need to do is keep calm when the bear market appears. Checking the price of Altcoin you are holding if they fall slightly, sell all to buy back at a lower cost to make a profit in the risk market. If you are a USDT holder, be happy because you can choose the potential Altcoin you want to buy because the price is falling, then wait for the market to stabilize and rise again and sell them and collect return profit.

Why consider the sign of stabilized prices if you can already buy during the dip and lowest? you can find it yourself and set a basis on how low should be the lowest base on your strategy in buying. Don't regret if you buy with a potential low price and the market became lower after buying. This will distract your plan of buying during the bear market, you need to set higher price with the bought price and don't look for your frustration if ever the market goes lower.

Bearish market doesn't happen when the market is cheap, it happens when the market is expensive or overvalued. Emotions are their biggest enemy in a bear market. Have patience, it seems that bear markets feel like they are going to last forever, but they don’t. If we stay with good, quality investments, we should be able to make it through all right. It is best to make sure that we keep calm and keep the proper perspective. By employing some alternative strategies, we can do quite well during those times.

The most effecient thing to do is to study things further in blockchain. You can accumulate coins but you can't do that every week or month or will just sweep all your funds that you might need in case of emergency. If you allot your time in knowing the very difficult things to understand in the tech then you will have an advantage to see if it will succeed or not.

We should always be prepared for a bear market, but there is no reason to be alarmed. You can't only survive from the bear market, you can even prosper from it. It can absolutely provide great opportunities, but we have to know what we are looking for.  If you feel that a bear market is developing and have substantial long positions in the market, it's best to buy inexpensive short and long-term puts on the major indices. A proper asset allocation strategy will allow us to avoid negative effects resulting from failing to diversify assets.
