Is risky to invest this period

[Yatsan]

Whatever period there is, investments will be always risky not only in this industry but in general. But regarding current market behavior, I gues this is a better season to invest given how market prices are showing signs of recovery from being down low for almost a year. Also, there's this anticipated bullish trend which is something to look forward to, which somehow lessen the risk. Again, there will always be risk but atleast worries would be lessen right now compared to last year wherein it was hard to even foresee recovery from the market. The only thing you should be careful of is choosing the right ones to invest and I'd say huge names would be the best choices since these tokens are the ones who could sustain sudden declines and ones who'd lead once bullish trend is again visible.

If you had purchased Bitcoin some months ago instead of buying at a high rate to lose 600$ you'd be making it big by now. This should be the best time to invest in Bitcoin cause in few years time, we do not know how sell Bitcoin would have grown

Long term investors can buy now but those who are trading actively in the market, they are waiting for the consolidation and waiting for the price of $25k again which i think is possible to happen. If you are going to invest, make sure you are ready for the risk and you’ll invest only on a project you analyzed. There’s always a risk but this can be more rewarding as well by making your own due diligence, so DYOR and invest wisely.

One who is actively trading in the market don't need to do much in timing as yo bear or bull. Its more of your candles and the patterns you find to develop. Should it agree with what your analysis and indicators is telling you, you just might have to go with what is obvious to you.

When it comes to holders, especially long term holders, having a timing yo go into the market is a after of how certain you might be, the willingness and availability of resources to jump in that market when that time comes or you think to have ground that time because, predicting the market is next to impossible.

Better still, you DCA in investing.

Bitcoin investment is good for long term.  We might get profit for a short period of time but it is nothing compared to long-term investment plan.  Since Bitcoin is cyclical and the current market situation is favorable for DCA or buying Bitcoin, then I believe, it is less risky to invest now than waiting for the market price to surge before buying. 

If ever you have plan, just make sure that you set your investment to long term and make a target of selling it either on the year after the halving or more. because Bitcoin price tends to skyrocket a year after the halving event.

I always prefer the DCA strategy over any other strategy because it proved to be helpful in a volatile market. The idea of buying without looking for analysis or watching the crowd sentiment is a good idea, because the crowd were on the wrong side most times. One example is that Bitcoin rose 50% within the last 3 months, and many people missed the chance to buy because they were waiting for lower prices as the crowd was expecting prices like 12k and 10k per Bitcoin, while people who were buying according to the DCA are in good profit now. Personally, I was buying on the way down, whereas I bought at 26k, 22k, and 16k, so I should be in profit now. However, my targeted selling prices are much higher, so I believe it's not risky to buy at these prices for long term investors, taking into consideration the popularity the crypto market has been gaining recently, which may attract even much more capital.rose

From the look of things bitcoin price will not come up soon, I guess is better to hold on till when it will show strong signal before putting in money again to escape losses and people who their investment is long over due are already victims of the Price dropping. We should try to be careful this period that bitcoin has not direction. Imagine a friend investment $2000 but what is currently left in his wallet is $400, and the deep is still bearing down the nuds.

Hold on, but if you must buy now be wise to use spare income.

your friend that buy $2000 worth of bitcoin should have to cut loss before the price went down so deeply. that is the way to avoid his big loses.

But i recommend you to invest in both holding and short trading styles. Not only waiting for the price increasing in uncertainty time. So you will have assets that you can hope they will more favourable to invest for some years in future and then you will also have some investment to make profit by doing short trading.

I hope you will find some insight about advantages and disadvantages both holding and trading form this Reference

I think in the current period of the market it is better to be an investor than an active trader because the price of bitcoin is still low and there will be a chance to profit during or after the halving, but it all depends on each one to find a way to profit from trading or investors for bitcoin, but we have the hope that the halving will create a positive trend for a significant increase in the price of bitcoin and the market will have a chance to reach a new ATH.

It might seem ironic perhaps but now is very likely the time to invest.   If you have doubts then plan to invest over an entire year, little at a time.  Its not that its wrong to be apprehensive but when the market itself is displaying caution its often with far better prices then when a market is extremely positive.   The positive action of a market means the prices have already realized maybe the majority of gains in that cycle, the best gains will come from exercising some foresight and depth to your investment involvement.

This is not a new statement, your friend is not the only one who loss, this is crypto and we can all loss if we don't have patience to hold patience is really needed if we invest in cryptocurrency if you only have patience you can always hold and you will not loss if you didn't sell at loss.

[ringgo96]

Currently the value of Bitcoin is in the middle of rising or falling prices and for those of us who want to invest at this time of course must be prepared to accept losses if the decline occurs again, then for investors who have just joined then consider well so as not to prustasi in the face of losses, because profits are what we expect but this has not been fully achieved because of the many challenges we have to go through, But I believe Bitcoin will increase this year.

[FairUser]

The problem from each person, skepticism when profits have not yet come is a normal mentality of people who have not had a clear investment strategy.
OP, I'll take myself as an example of this, what do you think about investing? Do you know the basic skills for market analysis or any project in the crypto space? And how satisfied will your investment be in terms of returns? With questions like these, I think you will understand how I am doing with my assets, myself after many years in this market, although not too successful, profits and losses in my head. I have experienced it myself, and for every portfolio that I truly believe in I always build a long-term plan of at least 2 years to see the profits gradually appear and increase many times after that, a few years ago. last month i advised my friends to prepare to start bitcoin DCA if everyone has capital and by now i am sure profit has come but that is not my expectation i think i will continue DCA till the end of the year and will allocate a more diversified portfolio then.

Investment is always risky and unpredictable, if we want to get into cryptocurrencies then be sure to understand the risk of loss that can occur, if we are not ready then it's better to leave, the most important thing when we invest is to understand the risks, don't be a human being who is afraid to take risks because won't change our future.

Well I have not really checked out how Bitcoin was doing lately and recently I just found out that it is over 25k+ already in USD per coin. Couple of months ago, I was like looking at it to be just around 19-20k and that was it. I thought I would just sleep into the price for now and wait for like a year. I guess that corrects your statement "....bitcoin will not come up soon".

It is just a common sense to buy when you have the means to buy BTC otherwise don't feel too bad that you're going to miss out. Remember that we always have those days of dips like always and it always happens all the time.

There will always be a risk of everything we do, moreover, this is an investment whose price movements will not always increase and will not forever decrease either.
You are right, if we do not want to take risks then we will not be able to determine the future. We must be human beings who dare to take risky steps to become better human beings. Of course, having the courage to take risks must be equipped with knowledge, because if we are just being brave without having knowledge, that is tantamount to lying, or we are just hoping for luck. 2 things that cannot be separated in an investment like this, namely, the courage to take risks with knowledge.

You can never predict the future, but at the same time there is always some bargain to be had when it comes to proper investing. Speculating on cryptocurrencies is hard to call investing, because it simply does not have a long enough track record to do comparisons. It's not like the stock market, where you can see over many decades the gyrations that it goes through - the dozens of booms and busts. The stock market is also made up of many individual companies that are actually producing goods or offering useful services, unlike the many altcoin variants that are simply clones with a slight tweak with the pure intention of making the original "developer" a bit richer.

The price of bitcoin has been quite stable this week but I do not recommend to enter at the current price for new investors joining or increasing their investment assets, need to wait for the moment of market correction to target buy bitcoin at lower price because buying at current price is also risky unless you aim to long term investment, so to avoid risk it is highly recommended to be patient waiting for the market to correct because there may be a correction below $25k if the $30k area is not reached.

If he can handle the risks and always be prepared for whatever happens, he will be fine and there shouldn't be any major problems. Investing at this time can still be done because the price is still low so he can collect more bitcoins or whatever coin he wants. And he can focus on bitcoin as his investment so he can make his bitcoin the main investment in crypto. But we must remember that there will always be risks, so we must always be prepared.

[panganib999]

Any day is as risky as the day before, when investing in crypto. The volatility rate doesn't change with each subsequent period after all. But what does change is the amount you could bag up when a bull run arrives, which some people speculate is closer than we may think. Don't take my word for it though! in any case, it's always risky to invest in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as a whole. There's no definitive "profit only" cryptocurrency out there and even if there is, the market will absolutely demolish the fuck out of that coin courtesy of people flocking up to it.

So invest if you can. if you have reservations over it do not, and gather up researches first before making a move.

The new Bitcoin cycle/bullrun has started already. That's a fact now. I'm not sure what makes you think the price isn't going up soon. And now it's high time to invest, before we are going up. Halving is going to happen soon too, another driver which could help us skyrocket. Remember that $14k spike back in 2019 if I'm not mistaken? This time we're going to at least $50k and it should happen really soon (April-May-June arena). So go on and invest, before it's too late (you may simply miss the moment we're going parabolic and lose lots of money). Act now!

   Most people here know that bitcoin has proven to be a good long term investment. If you're going to day trade, it's better for me to do it with another cryptocurrency, not bitcoin, in my opinion.

   Because of the long-term investment class of investors, they are not affected if its value falls suddenly in the market, theirs is when the bitcoin halving comes and they see that there is a profit for sure they will release the profit.
