Traders can certainly get profit in any condition, there is always an opportunity for profit because price fluctuations are very liked by traders, and today the price has returned $ 20K after almost 3 weeks under $ 20K, I hope the market continues to rise.
Well so can they also incure loss under any condition, imo i think traders basically talk about only their profits and not loss, this sometimes allures newcomers into the
trading business, but soon enough they find out that it wasn't actually what they bargained for, and
life on the
outside is a whole lot greener, lol. Mind you that fluctuations do not always work in the favor of traders, it can go either way, imo, if the world is actually going into a crisis like op says, i'd be advising people i know to get out of trading, and not to start it.
