What is the overall market sentiment and how can I keep track of this?

[$weetne$$]

I have been observing the market trend recently and have seen that the patters are not so consistent with what I expected although it has been ranging, but I will like to know when I can easily spot when the market will change direction, is there any indicator I can combine to make a thoughtful decision that I will not regret?

My advice is to not wait for any indicator before buying Bitcoin, you do not need to time the market to perfection when to buy, you can buy while the market is down so you can buy more amount of Bitcoin than to buy when the naketyis rising although that is also another strategy but you need to be very accurate to get this strategy correctly. The market sentiment is neutral and not bearish of bullish. It can change at anytime but for now you do not have to panic to buy or sell. Also you do not have alot of time to be waiting for when you are going to buy because the market can move very fast and change sentiment. Start buying if you want to make profits when Bitcoin gets to a new highest price. If you keep procrastinating when you will buy Bitcoin because you do not know what the sentiment of the market is, you might miss buying totally and it means you would not be capable of gaining profits when Bitcoin pass a new highest price.

If you have your customised indicator settings you could as well share for the sake of learning.

What most users will be suggesting here is to do your own research upon all the available indicators and make use of them in getting the best result needed form the market sentiment, also, we must have to consider the rate for taking risk over all these if worth it or not, or can we afford  it or not as well, bitcoin remains unpredictable, but the little we could suggest are what we were able to detect from the chart flow over the market price and the crypto season at hand.

Previous replies are indeed that relevant specially with that Fear&Greed index on which it would really be giving out at least some idea on whats the current condition of the market when it comes to this aspect
but just like been said by majority on here that there would really be no assurance that you would be able to see those precision on what those indicators that been showing on. Somehow knowing these things could really give out at least some idea on what you are dealing on with. You could be at least have the idea on what you should really be doing next.  Overall market sentiment and other correlated things isnt something that would really be simple to spot out specially in speaking about market shift when it comes to trend and movement. This is why every movement that you would really be taking will really be basing up into your own choice.

Taking further actions will really be just that depending on you, whether you would really be that taking up such step or action on such particular condition because
results or outcomes will really be that vary or does depend on the actions you are making. IF you do skip out or would be holding up your position or doing the other way around.
So it would be depending into your action into this one.

Isn't technical analysis a bit about that? I mean if you are reading charts and checking the indicators and TA, then you are already trying to be aware of what the market is thinking. I am not saying that you will be right each time, but it's quite possible that you could be. This should not be all that complicated, you could make that money one way or another.

I believe that we are going to end up with some return for a while, and can't really consider the change all that much. We need to just make some money with whatever we have. If you want to know what the people are thinking, just check the charts and the indicators, those should be telling you something. Not all the time, but most of the time that should tell you more about the market.

Last week the market was quite down so it was a good opportunity to buy Bitcoin but now the market is going back up so those who are looking to buy Bitcoin right now should wait, I would not advise you to keep buying but I would advise you to do DCA because maybe the market will go down again. If the market goes down again, you should have money to buy more, so it is better to go with DCA. If the market goes up from here you will profit and if it goes down further you will have money to buy more.

There is no trust in the crypto market. No one can say that the market will not go down from here. Therefore, a successful trader never buys only with the top in mind. If it goes the other way around, what will be the strategy?

A wise trader always trades by thinking and estimating the loss more than the gain, and this is the reason why we should be ready for any situation since the cryptocurrency market is unpredictable and we can see anything happening at any given time.

Thats why knowledge is really that important, because on the moment that you do find yourself dealing up with unpredictable space, then it would really be just that normal that you would really be needing up that sufficient knowledge and awareness on how this market behaves or works or simply knowing its volatility. On the time that you do step your foot into this market without having any idea then you are just basically
putting up yourself on such tough situation and this is something that you should really be looking on. Dont expect that this would really be just that an easy path for you to know everything within this space
or simply having those impressions that you could really make some easy profits on this place. Always expect the unexpected because things could happen on least expected.

When you are just newbie into this market then it would really be normal on having those kind of impressions on which you would really be mind boggling on the things that you've been experiencing.
On the moment that you had already gained up sufficient experience then those impressions would really changed up overtime. It is really that typical that you would be making up those
kind of comment when its your first time.

I would say that thinking about the loss would definitely be helpful if you are aware of the market. Because you know that you are going to make profit eventually anyway, you just need to make sure that you are not dealing with too much loss. If you are careless then you are going to make some loss, and a lot of people do, but if you know what you are doing and not careless, you are going to make some decent profit as well.

I believe that we need to consider this, it is not going to be that easy but won't be that hard neither. At the end of the day, it is just life and we could make it work some other way as well. I believe that we need to focus on how to make some good returns, which can be done, by working hard towards it. I believe that we are going to find something that will be hard for us to convince ourselves if we are dealing with bad trades, most of the time we try to blame other factors, but if we can see our own mistakes then it will eb a lot better. A lot of people fail at that part, they always blame others, a good trader sees their own mistake and fixes it and tries to make less loss based on that, would help us a lot if we know how to do that part and get greater results.

Plus, learning from your mistakes means that you know what you are looking at, and you studied it good enough. People who look at their loss and do not understand why they lost, should go back and study some more to be able to understand. If you lose, and a veteran, that means you will be able to look at your loss and see the mistake. Just because you know what mistake you shouldn't do, doesn't mean that you will never make that mistake, sometimes you do it without realizing you are doing it, it is not like obviously done thing, there isn't like red flashing lights alarming you about your mistake.

Right now, market sentiment is not positive. But, current times must be another great opportunity to accumulate and average. Keep fishing on this down trend and I believe $61k levels act as strong support level and we can expect bounce back from there if the down market persist or else we can see bulls getting back to action at current levels itself.

Because crypto market sentiment will not always be the same, even though the potential for large profits that can be obtained for those who want to keep holding Bitcoin tightly enough will always be there.

honestly AI is good enough at figuring current sentiment, some exchange provides that and they also integrate with real time data to their exchange which means it's fresh data and is valid to make financial decision based on it.
so figuring out market sentiment is a piece of cake, but don't expect things to always follow market sentiment, i usually consider this as a wrap up data of what happened to the market for certain period of time, never consider it a future forecast personally.

That is true, if you do not have courage to get in when you should, then you are going to regret that decision and a lot of people do, there is no reason to keep thinking like that. I personally believe that the best thing we can do will be important for our future and we need to make sure that we know what we are doing.

There isn't really anything that could benefit us, after all if we stay out, that means we won't lose or we won't earn, so staying out has no down or up situation and that's why a lot of people prefer that.

But the reality is that we can't grow that way neither, and if we can't grow then how are we suppose to make any money from crypto at all? How are we suppose to have a better life?

We are going to just live the same life and anytime there is a financial crisis in the world we will reset and be poor and try again. But if you take that courage and use it to buy crypto then suddenly you are going to get richer and one day no crisis will matter to you, you will have enough money to not worry about money anymore. This is why I invest into bitcoin, and will keep on investing into bitcoin, there isn't any other better way to make this work, we need to make sure that this works.

is there any indicator I can combine to make a thoughtful decision that I will not regret

I've really come so far to studying about the market waves and underwood that there's no strategy or tool that can guarantee you unregretes. It is just all up to you to make up your mind that the state of the market is profit sd lost but a long term holding will always go give you those chances to a better place.
The possibilities of your unregretes is stabilizing your emotions and just patiently keep holding nomatter what the circumstances is until the market make good and excited phase of your expectations.

Of course, nothing is certain. There is no pattern that really guarantees that what we hope for will come true, in fact the market can reverse direction at any time once the trend is good. Every trader must be very wise in making decisions, but so do investors. If the market looks down -1% now, then perhaps the price will rise 5% in a few hours. Once again, there is no definite benchmark even though we do good analysis based on data.

But the regret will always be either you buy or not buy, such as you make a purchase of Bitcoin from the beginning of this year and do it in a long term and planned for the long term, then Bitcoin jumped the price up to $ 200k, but you can only collect 1 BTC , even though you are able to collect several BTCs, it will sometimes make you regret because you feel that why not buying more before.

But it is far better and not buying once, when the price jumped and does not have BTC it will be much more sorry especially when you have planned to buy BTC but don't do it, I am quite sure you will be very sorry for life.

Everything would really be speaking or talking about risks on which it would really be just that a normal approach thing to have or something that people would really be prioritizing. You would really be needing to take up a gamble or risk for the betternment or for your future on which its a common aspect that people needs to look up if they do have plans to have a good life on which of course its not really that guaranteed but at least you had made up yourself on taking up some action rather than on sitting idle or doing nothing. When it comes on being progressive then it would really be just that depending on you.

Going back into the topic on how you would really be able to track up everything then we would really be having those sites or tools on which it do shows with the current market sentiment on which you could really be able to base up on the things that you would really gonna intend to do on which it would really be just that basing up on the actions that you would really be taking whether you would really be minding about making
up some research and basing your actions into that or would really be mixing up with some intuition or guts on the moment that you would be making up some buy or sell decision.

Re: What is the overall market sentiment and how can I keep track of this?

There might be some more, but these 3 things are what I'm focusing with when it comes to knowing the market sentiment.

1. Fear and greed Index as what many have shared it here.
2. Media hyping up the crypto market. When the media is putting titles like "The start of the bull run", or "Bull run happening", etc. you will feel that the market sentiment is becoming more positive.
3. Social media platforms. If you will see that many people around the world is posting on their accounts like "This is it. The bull run is happening" or "It's happening already" or the like then you will know.

Your instinct can sometimes be a good way of knowing it as well.

If you have your customised indicator settings you could as well share for the sake of learning.

Trying to spot a time when the market will be making a change in direction, the best and surest way may not be indicators but that which i have seen and trusted all this while is candle stick psychology, if you can get that right, then you can be sure that you are goin to get it right most often than you wouldn't.

Indicators can really be helpful but the parameters for which some of these indicators do uses is mainly based on the psychology of the candle sticks so the summary of the behavior of the candles over a period of time does sum up to getting that overall directional prediction done by speculators and sometimes indicators.

The reality is that people look at the charts and the indicators but they are not looking at the numbers of the indicators that well. Like for example BB being under 40 and BB being under 20 are totally different things, so learning those differences is not that easy and takes a bit of a time.

I think it should be noted that we are going to see a lot of people who will end up with a lot of issues if they learn anything wrong, you could literally make the exact opposite of what you should do if you do not know how to use them. That is why I always suggest that we should learn these stuff very well before we start to trade, there isn't really anything that could make it go better for the time being at all.

[Odusko]

Why should you expect a steady market sentiment when you already know bitcoin to be a volitile asset, and anyone that invest in bitcoin, should be ready for whatever market reaction and should give a long term investment approach, bitcoin is not some get rich quick scheme and for that you need to approach bitcoin investment with a mindset that is devoid of any form of pressure, and you should hold the amount of bitcoin that you can afford to leave untouched for a long period of time and conditions won't affect you in any ways, this are what you should look out for before you decide to hold bitcoin.
And if you ask me about the current condition with bitcoin, I will say that the market looks pretty well and at the moment we may expect to see a more positive future market reaction which should be an indicator that investor's are building more motivations to hold the bitcoin for much longer and compared to holding other currencies.

Well as long as you buy, "I could have bought more" is an acceptable level of regret honestly, nothing that big and could be done in a better way. I am not saying that we are going to see something changing, we could say that it is going to be fine and not a big regret to go on, you already bought and that means you already made some profit and as long as you have that situation with you I think it is going to be just fine.

What I think isn't acceptable is the fact that we are going to end up with not buying, in that case you are not making any profit at all, and you are missing your chance to make some profit.

Comparison is that in one of them you make some profit and on the other you make no profit at all, it is obvious the difference is huge. Of course I agree that if you keep constantly buying, then eventually you are going to make a greater return, it is not going to be easy, it is going to take a while but you could keep on buying more and eventually get a greater result.

People who keep purchasing bitcoin are making a killing, coinbase even has a set "charge X amount to my card every month" type of option, those people are getting rich like hell unless they are selling, that's the right way.
