Lessons Taken from Previous Bull Markets: How Will Your Approach Change?

[usekevin]

One lesson to learn is to sell all you have when the price reaches its peak because you don't wanna hold BTC and tokens where prices are going down for more than a year. It happens every after the bull market. I have to remind myself all the time that bears are going to keep selling until those who invest in the bull market dries up. Those who didn't sell during the last bull market and hold still to this very day I think understood how much was lost.

The bull market will teach us about the loss of chances to sell the holding with good profits.Many traders with less skills will sell their holdings at the beginning of the bull run.But they fail to understand the market and basic of the trading.The bull run will survive for certain period of time,when the market auto adjusted to all time high.Thenthe trader should not delay for the further increase of price,he should satisfy with the market and get profits by selling at that price.When the bear market starts,you feel like loss of the opportunity.

What do you think about the lessons we've learned from past bull runs? What's your plan for the next one? I'm excited to learn from all of you while I figure out my own strategy too.

The lesson I learned from the previous bull run is that all the things that happened in the crypto market are only temporary, the bear market does not last forever and so as the bull market.  They move in a cycle so better learn how that cycle starts and ends.  Aside from that, there is no best strategy but hold.  We all know that Bitcoin due to its finite supply and huge potential of global adoption, the price will just keep up-trending with several hiccups(temporary downtrends) along the way.  Until Bitcoin reaches it pinnacle ( peak price) it is best to accumulate during the bear market, sell during the bull market then rinse and repeat.

Or simply does have that common cycle on which there's a bull cycle and bear cycle on which it is really just that right that you should really know on how to take advantage on the time that you are dealing with prices and able to make out whether buy or selling decisions. Yes, past market cycles did really give out that kind of learning which we would really be able to apply it onto the next one which it is really that a common approach. For those people who had been here on this market for a while would definitely be having the idea on how market behaves and how news and fundamentals do take a role in speaking about market movements.

Not all would really be still able to make themselves wary specially to those who are just recently be able to dive into this market. This is why it would really vary on certain individual since not all would really be that
able to learn up with those basic principles. Sounds pretty basic but this is something that you would really be missing out if you arent that mindful or doesnt know on how to adapt on things.
This is why you should act out fast basing up on what you are facing into.

Well, from the past bull run, if there is one experience I have seen a few bitcoiners share, it is selling all their coin when the bull market just kicked in. Some times, if the bull market starts and maybe Bitcoin gets to $80k, some investors will rush and sell all their assets, but after selling, the market keeps pushing forward, and they begin to regret why they sold so quickly. I think I have derived a selling strategy from such experience, which is that I will not sell all my assets at once when the price is becoming bullish; perhaps when I sell too, I will have to sell them bit by bit, so that if I sell at $80k and the price still keeps going high, I can still have more fractions of Bitcoin to sell at $100k, $110k or even far above. JMO.

Getting Ready for the Next Bull Run: If there's another big run coming up (we hope so!), it's a smart time to think about what you'll do differently. Are you planning to keep your investments for longer and not sell too soon? Or maybe you're thinking about taking some money out at certain points? Do you have a new way to handle risks in mind? Whether you're into looking at charts, doing research, or just keeping a cool head, lots of us would love to hear your thoughts.

I'm mainly a holder, so I don't do any trading, but if there will be a new bull run (let's hope yes!) and bitcoin will reach a certain value then I would probably sell something. If then it keeps going up then I would probably sell something more because if there is something that I've learnt from the previous bull runs is that sooner or later bitcoin dumps quite a lot so there always are good occasions to buy again.

as long as this market is attracting investors and users, there's always a chance to have a bull run. it may even surpass the recorded ATH. but it would be a matter of time to happen such scenario. as a believer, just continue to hold and accumulate more. the reward will come later on.
but it is understandable if some will sell as we have different necessities in this market. as much as possible, don't sell it at a loss. but a small profit is preferred over none.

[Japinat]

I will still stick to my old strategy, that is to buy low and sell high. Now that bull run is fast approaching, I think this is the best time to prepare my portfolio and do maximum buying while prices are still affordable. Because once the market becomes bullish already, then I don’t have the chances to buy anymore.

This time also, I will assure myself to sell some of my coins to gain some profits as well. Bull run is not about hodling your coins longer, but it’s the best time to sell so most likely I will take part in selling. And continue to hold some of my coins for future profits. That way, I won’t miss the chance to be in profits just like everyone else.

The biggest lesson I learnt is buying at the top when everything is maxed out and ready for a retracement, I lose some money but not the type I can't handle, another big lesson I learnt in last bear market is to be strong when others are feeling down, you heard me right, from now till the next six months, many investors will lose hope, Bitcoin will go down and altcoins will lose a lot of value, and this will be the best time to keep on buying.

I remember that many people got tired of accumulating bitcoin, because it feels like the Bear market isn't going to end any time soon, they lose hope and some sold their Bitcoin and moved out, such people ended up rushing back into the market in 2021.

This same race will happen in 2024-2025 and I don't want to be left out again, it takes a smart person to learn from their old mistakes, I don't get moved by the market sentimental anymore, because I don't care, on the long run, Bitcoin remains the winner.

[DeathAngel]

History doesn’t always repeat but it often rhymes. There are many charts that suggest this, so far bitcoin always has a boom, bust period which centres around the block reward halving. Do your own research but selling around 12-18 months after the halving & buying back after that, on the way down over the following 12-18 months has always been a hit.

Its excellent that you brought up the previous bear market and the importance of learning from the past. It is a tragic reality that a great deal of people become lost in the turbulent world of cryptocurrency, dont they? When they should be planning, they are panicking, and when they should be holding, they are selling.

Your discussion of having a steel backbone during the low points is exactly what history has repeatedly demonstrated is required in this volatile cryptocurrency market. Hold on to 2021. Yes, many of the so-called "investors" gave up, sold their Bitcoin, and then had a fit when the market recovered! Tradition!

Keep your ground and dont waver from your beliefs. You make decisions based on logic, strategy, and historical lessons; the majority make decisions based on sentiment. And I agree with you; Bitcoin is king in the long run

Learning the truth is that by seeing my own mistakes in my investment journey, it took me a lot of time, money, spirit, and even health... to search and fomo according to things exaggerated when the market is bullish. And when I understand that, then I want to look back that I started wrong, not depending on anyone, all information is self-validating and assessing the level of opportunity or risk, in my head. Nothing is perfect until we have tasted failure. And if you have the intention to go with it for a long time, I think it's still the basics, going back to accumulating and updating knowledge, as well as preparing clearly the direction for the investment as well as the expectations.

[Yatsan]

People tend to regret not buying once the market price is again at peak. Well, it is a normal response simply because you already saw how high it would become. To change this is to have courage to invest early. Problem only is that investors are only looking on the potential profit and not the part that they would be embracing the risk. With that, they should be ready to endure imarket downfalls no matter what and as we all know, this is the reason why we should invest an amount we can afford 'losing'; an amount we would be okay resting for months or years until satisfaction with profit. Also with DCAs and other market analysis wherein we tend to wait for that 'lowest' which is impossible to determine. Much better to pick a market price entry that would give you enough margin to stretch for market price changes.

[panganib999]

Judging the two bull runs I've been in, I say that I should start taking risky plays.

I've gathered a lot of profits over the two bull runs I've been in. It was awesome, but judging how high it has gotten, I say I should've stuck for longer and waited it all out. No hurt in stalling for time and waiting for a higher price point especially when it's bull run anyways, so might as well. I get why some people may scoff at this, cause after all, profit is profit. But as someone who could afford to tank losses, I say I think for people like me who have played it safe for the longest time it's best if we could actually play a little more risky to maximize our profit potential. And yeah of course, make sure that you secure your wallet. Scams and hacks will be at an all-time-high during bull runs, if you settle for complacency you won't have any funds left before the bull run ends.

The crypto world has seen some really exciting bull markets, and right now, it looks like we might be gearing up for another one. Whether you've been trading for a while or you're new to the crypto scene, it's important to take a moment and think about the lessons we've learned from past bull runs.

Looking Back: The past bull runs have been full of excitement and sometimes nerve-wracking moments. There's a bunch of stuff we can learn from those times. Remember the big runs in 2017 and 2021? And even the recent ups and downs? What did you take away from all of that? Maybe you realized how important it is to set clear goals for how much profit you want. Or maybe you saw that it's a good idea to spread out your investments and not jump into things just because others are. Let's talk about what we've figured out so that others can learn from us too.

Getting Ready for the Next Bull Run: If there's another big run coming up (we hope so!), it's a smart time to think about what you'll do differently.

Whether you're into looking at charts, doing research, or just keeping a cool head, lots of us would love to hear your thoughts.

Remember, the crypto world can be super unpredictable, and no plan is perfect. But by learning from our past and changing our strategies, we can handle the ups and downs better.

Hodling and waiting is the best strategy which has proven itself successful over years. As to the cycle, I'd like to pay everyone's attention that the cycles seem to be becoming somewhat shorter and next cycle's top may arrive faster than we are expecting it to arrive. Last ATH came in November (not December as usual) and this sideways year is also going faster than 2019 schedule.

1. The top is lower than the target price typically voiced by people. Last time it was $100k, in 2017 people thought that $20k is only the beginning

2. The top is very short-lived, it only lasts for a few hours or a day.

3. The market moves in large steps, be it up or down. It's not going to move gradually, so you need to be ready to react fast.

4. Every sudden price can be the final act of the bull run after which will come the big crash and bear market. But it's impossible to tell a correction from a crash until weeks or months after. In the last market the price crashed from $60k to $30k, which seemed like the end of the bull run, but then it rose back to above $60k, but it didn't last long and the final crash came.

But not all people would really be that willing to wait up for long term period and this is why they would really be going into various things or options on which they could potentially be able to deal with.
We dont even know if we do still have that similar cycle on which people been believing that this would really be just composing of 4 year cycle. Now it seems the price isnt really that still trying to show up some signs of reversal. In speaking about learnings then it would really be that impossible that you wont really be able to learn basing up on what you had missed on the previous bull run whether you would really be that knowing about those potential bull run period and bearish run on which selling out on peak and buying at the bottom would really be your main priority.

The previous bull run's of 2017 and 2021 is an eye opener for some of us bitcoin holder that to every any ATH there's a corresponding fall that will follow afterwards,  so I don't plan on keeping my total investment  peradventure the bull run takes centre stage the plan is to take a certain amount of money out of the investment to other projects other than cryptocurrency. The end point was to make and take profit to diversify.

[Odusko]

One more thing: I am curious to know what will be the cause of the next bull run.  I cannot predict, but I doubt it will be something we have seen before.  So focus and hold.

The anticipated cause of the next bull run is the 2024 Bitcoin halving,  where the block rewards will be reduced by half of the current block rewards and this is going to increase Bitcoin scarcity and as you know that,  scarcity breeds increased value of the asset,  so the 2024 halving is the major determinant factors that will cause the next bull run.
And In preparation for that, long-term holders will be the most and highest benefactors in this event that is anticipated and the next ATH is going to be almost double the previous ATH.

[imamusma]

Basically I'm pretty much prepared for the current market volatility for bitcoin to enter a bullrun phase in the future. It doesn't matter how much value has been lost since 2022, I only care about how much I can raise to make a profit commensurate with the bullrun.

We all know that there are a number of things out there that affect the price in both the short and long term. Investing requires time and patience because in reality the market can also put investors under great pressure due to volatility. There's no particular approach I take, but accumulating will really help me build a better portfolio.

[Viscore]

I’ve realized that hodling your coins at an indefinite time is not enough. You should set a target selling price at some point and take part in selling a portion of your coins when the market is profitable. After all, the only purpose why we are doing this in crypto is to gain decent income, and be more profitable if the market permits so. And after selling and profiting, just buy back again when the market ends up being bearish. That’s the only way so you can accumulate more potential coins again to save up for future profits.
