Everyone is fearfull. Someone said this is time to be greedy

[palle11]

There is also blood on the streets, so someone said this is time to buy. Look at the amount of fear. So follow this?

"Someone"

If you don't know who that someone is, I am not entirely sure whether investing is an activity for you at all!
You should better look up who said that and read up on the context he said that in. And by the way, there is also a saying that says never catch a falling knife! Better combine the two statements before making judgments.

I have come to see trading as an individual thing and doing what you are directed by your strategy. Following what the views of others are may not be totally correct in all but surely the world about falling knife is real but the question is how can you identify a falling knife. Trade is dynamic, changing and not consistent, it is not like soccer betting and prediction about teams playing each other consecutive times and outcomes can be known.

trading, of course, must be based on its own initiative, and of course by analyzing market movements so that we can determine when is the right time to enter or exit the market, if we trade only following other people's words, of course, it is possible that we will be trapped in losses, as in the beginning. the beginning of the bitcoin market experienced a decline, many people did not think long enough so they rushed into the market and as a result, when the bitcoin price worsened as it is today, many people suffered considerable losses due to buying at high prices.

greed to buy now is a positive thing, because the price of cryptocurrencies is currently heavily discounted,
of course many people are recommending to buy it, but for me the current price is still not the bottom,
because everything still depends on bitcoin, and bitcoin itself is in its infancy the awkward one, stay careful

If have free money, buy will be good thing. As long we not force ourself to buy bitcoin when it's price dumped and then use money from loan. Investment must be use money that not disrupt our daily life. And price of bitcoin if people can hold longer maybe have bigger chance to increased more than now.

Honestly, this is still not the time to be greedy because the market hasn't reached the bottom price but if we are talking about long term investors then this is the time for them to be greedy, I will say this is the time to invest with cautious and also exit from all hype based project.

In this market, it depends on your capability, whether you will invest or not.
One can think of long term investments, whereas, a lot are only for short-term profits.
But whatever your situation on this matter, make sure that you are ready to face the possible consequences of your investments.
With this in mind, it is better to invest what you can afford to lose. It is the usual advice but unfortunately, some people don't follow such piece of advice.

Trade the range if you can at any point, seems good advice and thread title refers to the range of market sentiment which is most recognizable to us and is why we can still rate over automated computer based trading bots which never sleep, we can see the reactions and pick an opposite because people over react.

I would also say we have a simple price range still in effect, the price right now rose very positively but its also just a repeat of prices from start of the year.   Hence we could be top of the range and likely to reverse and repeat downwards again, its not for certain but I presume we operate in a box till we confidently leave that area properly.

Agree, you should manage the financial allocation to the maximum so that the financial allocation of investments in crypto does not affect the use of daily needs finance, such distribution of financial allocations avoids someone from panicking when the market experiences a correction from FUD news.

This only applies to small investors, and if you do it for the long term I think there is no problem using personal money, the most important thing is to have confidence and it's okay for me to live frugally in finance if for a promising investment like bitcoin, in addition, constantly analyze developments and take advantage of the moment when there is improvement.
and also master when is the right time to buy and sell it, and if the market tends to go down or related, be patient and don't panic just hold it because after it goes down it will definitely go up again and that's how the market works.
and most importantly for me not to take out a loan to do so.

It has not been fearful on Bitcointalk since 2014/15.

Since then the overall mood has always been buy, HODL & to the moon. It still is. I know what "fearful" looks like on Bitcointalk, and this is far from it. There is still a whole lot of euphoria that would need to subside before anybody starts being fearful.

Its been fearful for last many weeks.

Being "fearful" is not always about people panic selling like maniacs, it is also about people who are scared of buying bitcoin which is seen as price not rising even with a lot of positive news in the bitcoin world including adoption, technology advancements and all kinds of rise signals.

Their emotions drive in the wrong direction. They live in a fear condition than of a so-called greediness.
They fear about to lose the opportunity of buying Bitcoin at cheaper that is why they buy more and more, and never realize that they are overbuying. But look what happens to them, they face the huge consequences of their actions. If it happens that the price of Bitcoin won't pump, they'll be likely selling it.

I think it is the best to buy when people start making less transactions on the network. This is one of the good times for that. And it can be seen as the best to sell when there are a lot of transactions going on. These are the times we see the dip and the ath.

Not that really a fan on looking with Fear and Greed index yet this had been always the main check out in towards market condition and some do really rely on making out decision with this index but i dont see for it to be accurate but also doesnt mean that this is non sense.We can actually make out some observation on whats currently happening on the market as of this moment which is indeed on the fear side.

Agreed on what sgbett that fear is something that you cant just feel on this forum alone because lots would be still on that positive stance despite on whats the event been happening or even on the worst.

The community been helping out and trying out to be strong and making out suggestions whenever on what would be the right thing to be done.
A little bit of motivation but there are people whom do really easily freak out.

now the indicator shows fear, of course you have to be greedy, don't be afraid to buy, don't reverse,
the current price is the cheapest price for bitcoin, especially for altcoins of course very cheap, greedy to buy is a good thing for now,
because the price is cheap, but if the price is already expensive, of course you don't be greedy anymore

It reasonable for people to overbuy since every human is considered to be emotional at some point but selling at a lost price is something that's not acceptable to me and I consider it to be a naiveness idea cause they can still hold the coin till when it will be bullish.
Making mistakes is good and correction should be the next thing. Honestly, some people shouldn't have joined the crypto investment cause they will never learn.

I feel like this is at that time of "be greedy when others are fearful" period and we are seriously there. It has been there for a few weeks because the price didn't change, if it went even lower then we would be in fear even more if it went above then we would move towards greedy, since it didn't move then it is about the same as well.

I personally think that there is nothing to worry about if you are a long term investor, I am feeling fine and dreaming of having a bit more money so that I could invest, so far because of pandemic and bad investments I have lost a good chunk but when I get money if the price is still same I would say it is a great time to buy as much as I can afford without putting too much pressure on my own finances.

The worse thing that you can do if you want to make a profit is to go through a flow, rich guys are making money and profit when others are hesitant to buy, if you are part of the crowd you are not likely to be an early bird to make a profit, the last bear trend was when the news of pandemic broke out only a few buy the floor at $5k and many regret their decision not to buy.

Always been the situation or case up scenario and regret would always come in the end and not ahead.There are already lots of calls on on that time on where it is the possible bottom but i cant really blame out the public yet even myself do really hesitated into that time to make more investment on that time as i was really still been thinking that the price could even go lower which im definitely right that majority is been thinking off that way so its just a normal reaction but to those who did put risk and gambled out to buy are the ones who make out some fortune.
