I, as a beginner just like you, suggest that if you are going to invest you should watch the crypto movement. so that you do not choose the wrong price when you buy. and in my opinion when going to buy should be when the market is bear because when the market is bear I think it is a good opportunity to buy.
Lol, that's a wrong suggestion and you're need to understand more first before suggest to anyone.
Follow and only relying your investment decision on self pro claimed expert talking about the coins will increase in x price on x month are actually wrong. They're only give a non sense speculation without any analysis, when his speculation is correct due to lucky, he will give another speculation. If his prediction gone wrong, he will shut up his mouth for few months until many people forget about him. Then he will give another speculation and hope he's lucky enough that his prediction will correct.
I would say bear is not that bad? I mean I have been in the crypto world for nearly a decade now, and I do buy more during the bear markets as well, it does bring a lot more profit. I get that it may not be something that is easier to understand currently, but we shouldn't be shocked about it when it happens neither.
Just realize that we can't really make do with what we normally do, we just need to realize that it is a bad market right now, even when it starts to "recover", so buying right now is a lot better, if we stop doing that and we end up doing something a bit more risky like wait for it to move, that would be too late if you ask me. So I guess as a newbie he is not that wrong to me.
