Your Emotions: Highs and Lows of the Bull Runs

[JollyGood]

i only hold bitcoin because it is the only thing that has a real potential and is worth holding! and whenever it rises i only feel how my expectations are coming true and whenever it has a correction i am happy because i know i can buy more.

and at the same time whenever i see an atlcoin rise the only thing i can ever think of is when is the dump going to start and that way of thinking has always prevented me from losing money in any altcoin when they inevitably get dumped.

So do you sell high and then re-buy more when the price drops? It is unclear from your post.

What about if you changed your holdings from Bitcoin and used others such as XRP or ETH or others?

How do you feel during a bull run when you see the crypto you hold going up in price?

How do you feel post bull run when the price goes down?

What sort of emotions do you feel when hoping the crypto you hold keeps climbing and do you imagine driving a Ferrari or Lamborghini?

Maybe you start thinking of when to sell and maybe if it would give enough money to help you leave your job and start a business or travel the world?

 

I believe it is only a person that is an hater of bitcoin and crypto as a whole would like to see the price of the coin go down, because once you are in the crypto space and most especially an hodler, you will be very happy once you see the price of the coins you own growing and making profit for you everyday without doing anything to gain it, I just hope that the bull run we are currently seeing in the crypto space is not going to seize and turn out to be a bearish market because it won't be funny to those that already has hope in the crypto market.

Oh my! The excitement and chills when my portfolios are up by 2x or higher. I feel like Im the smartest guy on town, researching about cryptocurrency and invest on it. But when my portfolio dumps, I always feel down, feeling like I'm the dumbest of all thinking that cryptocurrency is an easy and fast money investment.

[manok arab]

in my opinion there is pleasure in this significant increase. I take it to the profit from the investment. And if the price of the plunge is a good moment also for me to buy it again.and sold again when prices returned stable again

A normal person used to the stock market can't emotionally handle these wild crypto movements.  The veterans here don't even blink at a %20 drop, its just another day for crypto.  Something dropping 20 percent in a day would be a disaster for the stock market though.

The human has to stay psychologically strong. I'm looking at a double I've lost half of a look. It's a really stressful market. Need to take careful steps.

Riding the bull means people can get so excited imagining bitcoin will soon be reaching beyond the $20,000 level it reached in the 2017 bull run. Emotions can go high and can go low likewise just like what we are having today because of the dip or a correction. Once bitcoin can get back to its feet again, smiling faces of many bitcoin holders can be as common as the air we breath. On my case, I am thinking that I can be able to buy a farm if I am holding a sizable number of bitcoin under my sleeves but since I only got some minute figures then I am just imagining buying like a t-shirt somewhere maybe in Hong Kong.

I never thought I would ever read a post saying a crypto enthusiast would retire and buy a farm if he rode the bull run and made a fortune so wish your dreams come true.

I agree about the excitement of maybe seeing BTC hitting beyond $20,000 in a bull run, those emotions can go high and low like the bulls runs and corrections push crypto prices around 

[xenomorphe1]

I feel excited if i see a bull run and if i bought coins at a good price. But i can feel frustrated if i didn't bought any coin and if i sold them at a very low price. Thoses can happen, but it is life and i have to continue to learn everyday how the crypto market is going to react. After the Binance hack, i expected to see some dump of BTC, but it didn't happened. Bad or good news don't seem to really affect the current crypto market.

[alberdina]

Until now my feelings were still very patient. But if the price conditions increase is certainly a sense of pleasure it will arise. As now Bitcoin rises I am very pleased because I also hold Bitcoin. But if there is a decline my feeling is also unstable. If it decides to sell of course it is a very heavy decision. I do this because I want to cut the hassling.

[Adriano2010]

Is good that happen a grow, i didn't expected so much grow, also i didn't expected for the price to drop, i feel good that grow but i wish to have a more grow over time, i will also profit to get some extra bitcoin and hold.

[omonuyak]

Many of us did not not know we are going to experience the high bull run that happen this month and some speculators were even saying that the highest bitcoin can go is $5000 by may but we are seeing surprising price of bitcoin move close to $9000. "my emotions" was high really, base on what has happened.

[TopT3ns]

If me usually i sell mine in price that still can increased again. And then regret it  . Usually when i see a coin get pumped i get hyped and then sell my coins so i am not miss any chance. And then it get higher.

[JollyGood]

Of course, everyone was delighted to see the price going on and you feel ecstatic and feeling nostalgic as well, specially for those who have been in the previous runs in 2017  . However, I'm not imaging driving those expensive cars though. I was thinking of buying a new home, or at least renovate my house.  . Yep, putting up a business is a good idea as well, so it also crosses my mind. So let's see in 2020-2021, whether we can finally learn the lessons for 2017 and be crypto millionaires in the future.

Nice to read so many people linking their emotions with sensible investments with any profits from a bull run such as buying property rather than buying fast cars.

Question number one, I feel excited, undecided, I feel I want to sell and sometimes I feel I want to wait more. Second question, it s always a mixed kind of emotions. If it I sold during high price, I am thankful I sold it before the price went down if not, I feel bad and I blame myself for not selling earlier. I am regretful.

Yea I always dream of having enough from crypto so I can start a new business and leave my job forever.

When the price increased for my investment then the emotion will definitely e produced in my mind but if the sudden drop will happen then only my mind will confused because of the emotions will make everything to be collapsed to decide the bad decision

prices go down or rise we do not need to be emotional to excessive so that it will have an impact on your losses. in my opinion it has become a normal thing and risk when we are here, so we don't need emotions just a little disappointed.

Ha, here, everything depends on the amount of money you invested in the cryptocurrencies and the returns. To travel to watch the other countries and quit your job, you have to buy a LOT of various altcoins and Bitcoin and manage to sell them during the peak of the market growth. It is possible but it is hard to do. As for me, feel happy when the bulls come, but there is still no need to rush selling your crypto.

[Oceat]

I think would be so happy to see their investment grow and finally, they can taste the result of their investment that they have been waiting for more than a month or even a year. I myself were too happy to see such price is growing and finally the bull run is already started, it's just about time that i have to hodl more and wait for the exact time to sell and buyback again.

[JollyGood]

I really appreciate this upward movement but I think the real bull run will start in the second half of 2019 I wish a good luck for all hodlers

What makes you say the real bull run will start in the second half of 2019? Is it a gut-feeling or is it because the previous big bull run was in December 2017?

[uneng]

When a bull run starts it's very exciting, the feeling is like: I knew it would happen, that is what I was expecting for! And it's really comforting, because you think about all those people who said crypto market was dead during the bear market, and finally they were wrong.
And when the market falls down, there is a mix of frustration, fear and hope: frustration because we don't want to see that happening and that wasn't what we expected for, fear because that thought about "crypto market is dead" passes through our minds and hope because there is another part of us that knows it's just a season, and another one will come, bringing a bull run again!
