When to invest in bitcoin

[coolcoinz]

I was willing to buy bitcoin immediately the price drop but the challenge i have them was I'm  not with cash, but I will be waiting until the price fall again, and if it fall again I will not miss the opportunity of buying bitcoin and keep for long term investment

There are people who wanted 10k bitcoin last year and are still waiting for it now. Don't be like them.

The problem with people who wait for crashes is that when the actual crash happens they either buy very early and then get scared of it going down and sell, or they keep on waiting and waiting and then it bounces back and they feel like the opportunity is lost and never end up buying.

Don't act like a trader when you're not one. Just buy and hold. Eventually it's going to be worth more than it is now.

The best time to buy bitcoin was in 2009, but if you missed that, the next best time is now.

Getting to wait for when price drops before buying is entirely a vey wrong approach  to holding and I think the DCA method has been one of the most accepted  and preached method of holding and you should always buy at every instance you get an opportunity  to buy rather than waiting for a particular  time to buy because it might shock you and rather than dropping  to your expectations, it rises without going down and I believe  that there where people who had the money to buy bitcoin  when it fell to 17k but rather wanted to wait for it to fall more but it disappointed them and now its way above 17k and those set of persons already missed all the opportunities that came with buying  at that price of 17k.

Many people thought that once the market was in decline it would dump badly which drove them to wait for the dip. Unfortunately, it was a big mistake and a reason why many people missed the chance to buy low.
In the current situation, I'd never think we're going to the dip anymore as we have started to gain back the buying demand pushing the price to recover. And those who are thinking about buying $17k have just wasted their time and missed the opportunity too as it never be going back that low. If we really have the plan to invest, at least buying at the current price is definitely the right move.

If you don’t understand that now is the time to invest in bitcoin then Nobody can help you.

It doesn't help the person either if you put that kind of pressure to a person. Maybe they knew the opportunity but they don't have the ability because of the money problem. What they're earning is just enough for them to live for day to day. They don't have anything to left to save or to invest.

I think he is making an emphasis to reach the person's thoughts.  It is not forcing but rather giving them a sense of urgency.  Just like when Bitcoin fell down to $25k+ If they didn't hesitate and invest at that time, they could have been in profit now. 

They wouldn't inquire about the best time to invest in Bitcoin if they don't have the money to invest.  So when two people are discussing investment, the receiving end thinks that the person who are interested has funds in their stash and is waiting to be used as capital.  After all, if a person doesn't have money, they will dismiss the discussion asap as to not waste time and effort of both parties.

Yes and maybe they only provide important information that can be utilized by others, as you said bitcoin touched $25k, they will succeed in making profits in the next few times if at that time they take advantage of the information provided by others that they can use, it is not at all forcing but rather a little help in terms of information. Giving and asking are obviously very different, and if there are some people who ask for some advice and related information (when is the right time to buy bitcoin) then as you said, there is no way they would ask that if they did nothing when they got the information. They are asking and that means there is something they want to do there. Unlike someone who comes by force, maybe they just listen to it because they are not interested in it at all or maybe they don't have the ability to do it.
So the way the two people do it is different, those who want it then they will really look for definite information and maybe not enough with just one question.

Bitcoin is good asset when you know exactly when to invest in bitcoin, before now I have being reading articles of bitcoin and when I read the articles of bitcoin I do notice new things every time I read of bitcoin. I notice that investing in bitcoin it needs more research to know when due is the perfect time to invest in bitcoin. And I find out that the perfect time a newbie can invest  in bitcoin  is when the price  of bitcoin  is in bear market, like some weeks ago bitcoin drop a different in the market price and its very nice opportunity for short term investors to buy and keep and be ready to sell when the market rise. I was willing to buy bitcoin immediately the price drop but the challenge i have them was I'm  not with cash, but I will be waiting until the price fall again, and if it fall again I will not miss the opportunity of buying bitcoin and keep for long term investment

It is true that the best time to invest in Bitcoin is on the bare market when the price of Bitcoin is down, and that should not only be for newbies but also for old Bitcoiners too because everyone needs profits, which is why they decided to invest. But I will say that if newbies have the advantage of buying Bitcoin at a low price, it will really give them more courage because the price may not drop anyhow again, rather than increasing and decreasing little, and with this action of the Bitcoin price, newbies will hardly be panicking about their investment.
 
But on the other side, I may say that it may be very hard for newbies to time the market, meaning to know when it will be the perfect price for accumulating bitcoin, because I don't think they may have the knowledge to do their own research to know the right time to buy, and one thing again is that many people always find it hard to hold for extra money unless it gets it invested. Now, I see every opportunity as a good opportunity to invest in Bitcoin, but the truth is that you should get ready to hold for long periods of time.

The dip is the right time to invest in Bitcoin. We should always buy when there is a bear market. Bear market is the best time to buy Bitcoin. Because after a bear market, a bull market actually increases in value much more than before. However, Bitcoin is currently in a bear market, as its price has been around 30k for a long time and is slowly falling. Its price is down -5.5% in 24 hours and down -0.5% in last 1 week. And when this bear market ends, the bull market that will come will price it around 40k to 50k. So now is the best time to invest in Bitcoin.

Buying low at the amount one can afford to lose is the best way to buy, it is good to buy in the dip but always waiting to buy in the dip could be something that may not happen because bitcoin is unpredicted. As far as Bitcoin price still remains low it is always the right time to buy bitcoin,  you don't have to wait till it get dips to a prefer price, it is just greed waiting for the price to keep getting dip because it is not very sure if this may happen the way one thinks.  Anytime the price of bitcoin is low it is always an opportunity to buy bitcoin because profit can still be gained if it is a longtime investment. Sometimes we miss the opportunity of investing because of greed waiting to buy at the cheapest price in the market.

When I looked at this period bitcoin is dropping I said this is the perfect time to buy bitcoin  because bitcoin may rise and it will be above 30,000 to 40,000 but I notice that in 2024 and 2025 the increment that will face bitcoin  people will be regretting why they did not invested in bitcoin  when the price  drop in 2023, the only thing  that is discouraging me now not invest in bitcoin is funds but I have make out some decisions of things that will give me funds when I sell them to invest in bitcoin, why I like investing in bitcoin is because its an asset and it continues to be valuable even though the price drops in the market it will also rise. If bitcoin go more deep falling in price I can't hesitate to sell my properties to invest in bitcoin and besides that my property is not useful like before

It's always good to take advantage of every given situation, especially when someone is financially ready. When the price is down, we just have to accumulate as much as possible, not minding if the price will go down more or if it will come up a little bit in the near future. Sometimes, what makes people regret their actions is greed.

Seeing bitcoin drop unexpectedly, they will want to see it drop more before they can make their investments in bitcoin. They always want to use a lesser amount to accumulate more, which usually backfires on them in the end. That's why we are always advised to use the DCA strategy, as it will always put us on the right track, either in a bearish season or a bull run, and when the bull run that we are expecting in the coming years finally comes, there will be no decision that we have made in the past left to regret.

It seems like everyone knows when to start opening their investments and a price drop or correction might be something they are always waiting for, as it is the only position that can give them a profit there. Of course if they get the right moment, meaning buying when the price is at the lowest point of a certain period of time it will make them feel comfortable, although bitcoin is very volatile but it will not threaten them too much because they start from a price that is quite far below during bearish times.

Well and in my opinion it's natural, I mean it's only natural that a beginner has difficulty finding the right time to enter the market because just knowing or realizing that they are a beginner is enough to answer it, basically there are still too many things they don't know there so it certainly makes it difficult for them to find a suitable moment to collect more bitcoin and of course at the lowest price at that time. In the matter of money they are actually not too difficult for that, because maybe they can do it little by little, you can save every week or once a month the rest of your pocket money. So the point is if you really mean it then you will be able to do it with your own efforts, and also remember the benefits will always coexist with the level of risk.

Bitcoin is currently offering a good investment opportunity. When Gary Gensler won the case against the SEC, Bitcoin touched $28k. I expected Bitcoin to dip again and was hopeful it would reach $26,200. This was based on my analysis, as I knew that Bitcoin tends to perform worse in the month of September. Now is a good opportunity to buy Bitcoin and build your portfolio. How you recover from any losses depends on your strategy. I have conducted extensive research, and in my opinion, Bitcoin will touch $28k again. There is a lot of hope, now if there is no bad news in the market, otherwise the price of Bitcoin will increase

Bitcoin Investment is like any other investment. It involves risks and should align with your financial goals and also strategical investment. So it's very important to note that the crypto market is unpredictable and speculative. Therefore seeking a professional financial advice is mandatory.

Almost all forms of investment involve risk in them without exception when we want to develop a business. It is a must for everyone who invests in bitcoin to have a strong understanding of the strategy so that the investment that is carried out does not result in a loss. Market can be predicted but the level of accuracy of these predictions does not have a definite percentage above 80%, so in terms of predictions many observers do this every day and of course though it is not recommended 100% to follow these predictions because we also need to make our own studies.

Just learn the basics about speculative and price fluctuations so that we avoid panic when the bitcoin market experiences a sharp decline and if you can address these conditions calmly then I'm sure we won't suffer losses because bitcoin always has a recovery moment. Bitcoin has a four year cycle that can take bitcoin to new price spikes and when you don't panic and are able to hold back then calm is the key to success.

Sure, bear market is the right time to buy Bitcoin as many as possible. During the bear market, the price of Bitcoin will be cheap enough, it will be quite far from its ATH. We can imagine if Bitcoin reaches again the ATH or make a new ATH, we will have a chance to gain big profits. However, we mustn't invest all our capital to Bitcoin, we must diversify assets. Bitcoin is always a high risk investment, we don't rely on the Bitcoin only. Although Bitcoin is very possible to return to $30k or $40k or even $60k+, there is no exact time when it will happen. We must use secure money for Bitcoin investment because it is a long time holding and no exact time for taking profits.

You can divide your investment into 50/25/25 or 50/10/10/10/10 where 50% of your investment would go to Bitcoin of course since it's the most known decentralized coins that really have a huge potential in the future and the rest could go straight to the alternative coins. Some would say it would be a waste of time to put some investment into other coins, but it's much better to not rely on a single coin. Profit is still a profit if your alt coins profited then that's good. If you want to assure your funds just take the capital investment then the rest of the profit just hodl it or take the profit and invest it again in Bitcoin simple as that. Still it would be better for people to have options and plan whenever the outcome didn't results as they expected.

Don't get stuck on the thought that Bitcoin's price will fall again and you will use that opportunity to fill up your bags. That opportunity may never come again. And I don't understand people talking about THE PERFECT TIME for Bitcoin investment. What is the perfect time for it? To me, any time you enter the market, that is your perfect time. Although it is only for long-term investment plans. In trading, you need to calculate the time, analyze the market, create strategies, etc. But Bitcoin is not a short-term asset. If you force it to become one, the results won't be flattering.

Buy and HODL. That's all there to it if you don't want to go through all the complications. You can invest whenever you like. Looking for dips and low prices will only make you lose opportunities. In long-term investment, these small price changes won't have huge impacts. So feel free to join whenever you like.

What makes you think that Bitcoin is not suitable for short-term trades? I believe if you have good capital and a firm understanding of the market to know when it is going up and when it will go down by reading charts and doing analysis, you can always find great scalping windows for Bitcoin in the market. A lot of traders are always earning a few percentages of profit every day only by scalping Bitcoin in the very small intervals that it moves up and down.

I understand that altcoins are generally more suitable for short-term trading and scalping because they are more volatile by nature and because of their price since they aren't as expensive as Bitcoin which makes them move up and down in greater numbers than Bitcoin and create more opportunities, but I feel Bitcoin can be used for that too.

Best time to invest in Bitcoin was in 2009. But if you're still not in Bitcoin, best time is now or ASAP. No matter when you get aboard, if you hodl long enough your investment will be successful. Right now, before halving, it's a super attractive opportunity to buy with huge discount! And btw technically we're not in the bear market, it ended once we had reached the bottom of this cycle.

[Viscore]

The perfect time to invest in bitcoin is when you've gained sufficient knowledge and a capital ready to lose. That way, regardless of the condition of the market, investing will always be a good choice. However, if you want to timing the market, start investing when crypto prices are on sale and bargain. It will help you accumulate a lot, and reap maximum profits in due time.

That's all you have to do and don't just put it in all talks. Make sure that you're gonna do your initiative and promise to yourself of how you're going to react and what you'll do when the time has come for you to start buying. Because you may not ask, there have been a lot of the same people that have said the same thing as yours but never done the thing they've said because of some instances that have stopped them in doing so. So, as you've told that, make sure that you'll put your mouth where your money is.

At that time bitcoin was still considered a worthless shitcoin but another fact we saw at that time we were not born to know bitcoin. Lol

Everything must be prepared in investment, sufficient funds, fundamentals, patience, know the direction of the cycle etc., yes, actually investing does not need to need more what is needed like traders just buy and hold if you want the DCA way then do the trick with what you like and understand that bitcoin is one of the best investments in cryptocurrency.

Now consider this a bearish phase.

Scalping Bitcoin is like high-stakes poker with no bluffing. Agreed, there are windows of opportunity; however, when scalping, you're dealing with an asset historically favored for long-term investments. Even if your chart-reading skills are top-notch, market manipulation is a lurking beast.

In a short time frame, even with Bitcoin, fees add up; liquidity providers like exchanges can alter fee structures at whim. The edge you thought you had? Gone, because of these lurking variables. For altcoins, less capital is required to make significant percentage gains. With Bitcoin, you're essentially fighting gravity - the existing narrative and historic data advocate long-term investment. So, while you "can" scalp, should you?
