Bull Or Bear Market which is most preferable to you?

[stadus]

I like both bull and bear market, and I effectively utilize both market conditions. During bull market I often rely much on day trading or swing trading but when bear market starts then I give more priority to investing so I can get better results in long time. For me bull market has been quite useful as it's my daily driver and I enjoy it but similarly bear market is also quite good.

If you have good grasp in this market, you can take advantage of both seasons. During bear season, you can accumulate valuable coins, which has good potential of increasing its value when bull season comes. As no one can predict when will such period happen, you are just gauging your options which will best give you the profitability when you decide to sell-off.

Exactly. The more knowledgeable you are in this market, and the longer you have been exposed to both market season, then you will know that each of them plays a vital role in your investing or trading journey. It isn’t just about the mere meaning of its word itself, like seeing bullish as more of happy days while bearish comes with gloomy days, but it’s more on the market opportunities these two will offer to us so we will have a complete ride on the crypto market. We need to experience both season, and none of them is comparably better than the other.

I like both Bull and Bear market at the same time because if Bull market comes, I can sells some amount to take the profit. Then, I will wait for the Bear market to buy back the coin and wait for the bull market comes.

Actually all of us investors have a tendency to profit ie we like bullish season. It is not certain when the crypto currency market will have market dips and bulls. But as a small investor I love both bull and bear market situations. When these two situations occur in the market, we have different opportunities. For example, bear markets create opportunities for us to buy coins at low prices. Similarly the coins that we buy at low price for investment, the price of those coins increases in the bull market i.e. we are interested to sell them at high profit.

If they want to invest in Altcoin, Meme coins, or shitcoins, they must really carefully because no guarantee they can make a profit and they don't know which coin that will rise.

Investing in alt coins can be risky, you can take the opportunity to invest in Bitcoin during dips season. There are some potential alt coins in the market that are relatively low risk to invest in. But you forget about investing in meme coin or shitcoin because investing in them is very risky even earning profit from it is completely luck dependent.

Bear is always good that bull, because through bear market we can have or buy some more coin and keep it till the next bull run happen and then sell at good price, the  bear is important to investors to make an investment plan to earn, it makes crypto more exciting,imagine if there is no bear market and always bull we cannot set our goal to earn and we cannot buy coin in a discounted price.

If there were no bear market but only a bull market, meaning the market was always rising, you could still make a profit by buying high and selling higher. You will never even lose but that is just an assumption and that scenario will never happen.
A healthy financial market is one that has both bears and bulls, both of whom play an equally important role. Neither is better than the other because both are necessary and sufficient elements to create a financial market.

Which market is better will depend entirely on each investor because each investor will have different thinking and strategies, thereby creating different results.

[LUCKMCFLY]

When someone says they prefer bear, they are not saying they hate bull, do not try to find something out of what is not said.

That's how it is, and this precedes being a market speculator, or simply being a trader who makes his moves as he follows the trend, and this is something that can be normal, at any moment the perspective can change, in trading things work at that level, the opposite case is in the case of investors and people who are very focused on seeing the market with a certain feeling, which is not bad either, the bad thing is that they believe all the time that the market will always go in one direction, the market will always have moments of lows, highs, sideways movements, you just have to know how to understand the market movements.

They are equal. 🟰

The key is guessing close to the top to sell


and close to the bottom to buy.


Age is meaningful.

If you are under 40 and have less then 10 coins you can’t sell at most any price unless you are absolutely in dire need of the coin.

If you are over 65 and have 8 to 10 coins selling 1 is okay when you get near the ath.

So liking bull at 65 more than liking bear 🐻 if probably easier to do.

I am 67 when we topped 70k it was easy for me to sell some coin.

I do not want to sell some now. As I sold some this year.

So bear is okay. Super bull is kind of okay as I still mine just a bit.

[darkangel11]

I've been in the space for many years and I still like bull more than bear. Maybe it's because I no longer buy bitcoin. I used to do it years ago but for a few years I feel  like I have too much and don't want to be all in so much. Maybe I'm getting old? I'd like to live my life, spend some money, I feel like time is running out while I keep saving up. Don't get me wrong, I did great saving up and I still love bitcoin and want to hold it, but I'm no longer buying the dips and if we go into a bear market somewhere in 2026, I won't be buying. If we go to $100k or higher I'm going to enjoy it, even though I could be selling bitcoin and going cash heavy to buy the bear market, I won't.

[kawetsriyanto]

Indeed. As far as we can get the close to ATH and close to ATL in each cycle. Both bull and bear market will be enjoyable. The problem is, not everyone is capable to get these. Even some people just realized after the ATH and ATL have passed. And the worse part is they keep waiting and don't decide anything.

Age is meaningful.
If you are under 40 and have less then 10 coins you can’t sell at most any price unless you are absolutely in dire need of the coin.

10 coins? What coins do you mean, buddy? 
I'm under 40, I regularly sell my coins in each cycle.
Even I've 10 great coins, I can get lower price again in the next bearish season. So, I've no plan to hold above 10 years for now.
I assume it will be quite difficult to miss the chance of taking good profits in every new ATH.

I do not want to sell some now. As I sold some this year.
So bear is okay. Super bull is kind of okay as I still mine just a bit.

I also have sold some of my coins. But I prefer to sell most of my coins at the next year. 2025 is predicted to be the peak of the current bullish season.
Bearish is no problem, it is the chance to collect new investment at cheap rates. If we have no bearish season, we have no time to get coins at the dip. Well, super bull is what people expect. However, not everyone can be patient to wait for the supper bull. When do you predict the supper bull, buddy?

[I_Anime]

Like for I don't let the market conditions affect my accumulation, while there's bull market aslong is bitcoin I will still keep.my accumulation ongoing till have hit my target (accumulation goal ). Even same goes for bear market , in this aspect I take the bull market like a opportunity or a bonus to boost my accumulation overtime . Because due to what have I've learnt so far as an bitcoin investor panicky whenever there's a dip shouldn't be part of your characteristics at all . Because we are not dealing in some shit or memes coins that may be pumb and dump project without any solid purposes.

So I think the two season are nice , but it will be nicer if you have already secure a better position in your bitcoin accumulation. By having a enough stashes in your portfolio.

[Onyeeze]

Both bullrun and bearish season is a seasonal time for cryptocurrency investment,  because I know that most people who invest in Bitcoin love investing in bitcoin when the price of bitcoin is on bearish, because once you invest during the bearish time you will expect to make a profit for the time of bullrun, that's why people like to invest for long-term, investing for long-term has given many people profits opportunities in bitcoin investment, I do accumulate my bitcoin during the time of bearish not bullrun, because some people who think that bullrun is the best time to invest alway regret it.

Very true, the ones who have been in market for longtime know that both markets offer good profits at various times. In bull market those who aren't good traders also make money and some of them get excited by thinking that they've cracked the code of trading, however as soon as bear market takes place, those so called self-claimed trading experts lose their portfolio and later they give up on trading and consider it as a scam.

In bear market the weak hands who can't wait for days or months leave the market and sell their positions for much cheaper values. Only those who understand the market fully know that after each bear market there will always be a bull market and similarly after each bull market there will be a bear market. Such traders often invest wisely when bear market makes prices go at bottom and wait for bull market so they can sell with 2x to 3x profit.

Similarly the coins that we buy at low price for investment, the price of those coins increases in the bull market i.e. we are interested to sell them at high profit.

Yes, we like profit from our investment. But unfortunately, many of us doesn't have patience to wait for the time. That makes us can not hodl until the bull run comes. As an investor, we should like both bear market and bull market because from both things we can make a profit. You say it with right because if we can enter to market when the bear is coming, you have the opportunity to buy at a low price. You can only wait for the bull run coming so you can sell it and make a profit. But if we buy at a high price, we don't have to regret because we can still buy back at lower price when the market is down.

If they want to invest in Altcoin, Meme coins, or shitcoins, they must really carefully because no guarantee they can make a profit and they don't know which coin that will rise.

Investing in alt coins can be risky, you can take the opportunity to invest in Bitcoin during dips season. There are some potential alt coins in the market that are relatively low risk to invest in. But you forget about investing in meme coin or shitcoin because investing in them is very risky even earning profit from it is completely luck dependent.

That is why we always suggests them to research before decide. We don't know which altcoin that can increase. The risk will be bigger if they invest in altcoin but if they can selects Bitcoin as their investment, the chance to make a profit will be there. If they are ready to gamble with their money, that will be up to them.

[Slow death]

In my case, I prefer the bull market, because in a bull market when the price is rising, it has had small drops, and in these small drops I can buy and when it rises I make more profit, because it is a bull market the risk of losses becomes smaller. In my opinion. for example, the price of bitcoin is currently at $62,000, it rises and breaks $74,000 and the bull market begins, then the price reaches $85,000 but then it falls to $78,000 and I buy, and then the price continues to rise, with each small drop in price I continue to buy.

But when we are in a bear market the situation is very bleak, for example the price is at $62,000 and drops to $52,000 and the person buys thinking it will go up, but the price drops to $40,000, the person buys again and the price drops to $28,000 and stays without going up for 3 years. I know that most people are buying to make a long-term hold. But it is important to consider the age of each person, for example a 50-year-old person cannot buy and hold for 10 years, it is very risky, the person may die without using bitcoin. so what's the point of having bitcoin without spending it?

That is basically me, and I never lost hope. I know I am not the only one, but to be fair I know the other side as well and people who do the opposite. I bought at 60k before, and bought at 40k as well, but I bought at 20k and 30k as well, my average was a bit more than 40k and I am still buying even at this price because I think the price will go up, so I am not worried about it at all.

I understand that it may feel like it is not a big deal but it's actually a great profit without a doubt. I know that it's going to be a hard situation to handle for people who can't wait but I believe in bitcoin for long term so I did alright. This doesn't always goes according to plan because life sometimes throws expenses at you and you have to sell your bitcoins but that's fine, as long as you have trust in bitcoin then you can restart and keep accumulating and profit. This is why I believe that as long as we keep holding and accumulating we can profit.

It can be true as well in the bear market. The thing with bull run though is that everyone is feeling very positive, that at some point in time, with their current holdings, this will become huge. Like in the current cycle that we are, if we have accumulated enough, we will make a lot of profits if the price goes to $100k or more next year.

But when we are in a bear market the situation is very bleak, for example the price is at $62,000 and drops to $52,000 and the person buys thinking it will go up, but the price drops to $40,000, the person buys again and the price drops to $28,000 and stays without going up for 3 years.

Yes, it's long and very desperate when we are in the bear market, prices are not we wanted to see and maybe there are investors that doesn't have any patience as well. And they are afraid to see their portfolio going down and so they sell and then never comes back until we hit the bull market. But there are investors who see bear market as a friend and it's the time to accumulate. Remember that the lowest low we have seen is $15,500. So at the current price, we are already x4 making profits if we have bought that price in the bear market.

[michellee]

People like bull run because they can sell their coins and make a profit. Those people are waiting for the next bull run happen no matter if they don't know when it will coming. They already invest in many coins besides of Bitcoin so they expecting that this time they will make a profit.

Actually, they should like bull and bear market because both can give benefit them in investing in crypto. With bear market, they can buy many potential coins but they must still analyze one by one to find the coin. And when the bull run comes, they can hops that most coins they have can increase and make a new ATH so they can make a big profit.

Bear market is important to selecting the coin and leave the coin that can not survive. We can get benefit from both bull and bear market so we should use it properly.

[GigaBit]

Almost all of us on the investment platform are deeply involved with the term "bulls" and "bears". By these words we are able to understand very easily what period we are going through and where our investment situation is going. All of us who are into crypto investing want to be profitable. Especially during a bullish period an investor has the highest expectations. The investor can recover his profit during this period. Many investors wait a long time just for that bullish moment.

If we look at the differences between bear and bull markets I can give attention to these things.

As a prudent investor everyone should know about these bull and bear markets. There are many investors who wait for a bull market and there are many who wait for a bearish one. If the destination of the two is different, the intention is to benefit. Bear markets also greatly help an investor to profit. Those who can buy at low prices tend to be more profitable.

Bitcoin may revert back to bearish after a certain period of time but prudent investors like to take advantage of both bearish and bullish times. But everyone loves the bullish moment of the crypto market the most.

Ironically you will do better in a bear market because Im thinking of all the buying you could do.    To only buy into a bull market means greater risk and also less return in theory.   It is topsy turvey counter intuitive but also most probably true for most of us simply involved with BTC, you will get more BTC exchanged for your dollars when the price is lower and often we do stay irrationally lower then is correct long term.

Buying into a market that becomes over valued yet is very bullish is more dangerous, yet more people prefer to do this because of all the encouragement to buy.  It might also be a quicker result, with a 10k gain on the price in a week it can get people carried away.   Right now I would prefer the BTC price to go down till end of year so I can buy in, the biggest point here is you know BTC is good long term and with that knowledge you will profit.

bear market also gives much less risk for people who invest using leverage since we're already on the bottom of the price chart although it can further go down. but i'm sure price will hardly fall if we're already 80% down from ATH.

there's no foolproof way of investing despite market turning bearish and looks so oversold but the risk of buying in bear market always gives us the edge against people who bought at the ATH, when they are recovering, we already made few hundred percent or probably more from our initially invested capital.
so that's it folks, DCA is good buy buying the dip is even better

I think that most of us are very bullish preference, because we faithfully believe what Bitcoin represents, but as far as I'm concerned this has two sides, that of market speculators and that of investors, obviously the only thing investors have to do is follow their investment, hold on all the time and only withdraw when they see benefits, but those who are traders know that they have to win even when the market goes down in price, in bitcoin I do want it to reach $100k this year, just to give the psychological + business blow, just for that, but it is somewhat difficult, however the rebound it has now is very good and can influence confidence, which for me is what can drive it to be more bullish, especially for December.
