What Does a Bull Run Feel Like in Crypto?

[mindrust]

It feels like magic. It is probably the most awesomest feeling in the world. Bull runs cure AIDS. Bull runs make you younger. You'll feel it in your body.  Every cell you have in your body goes back in time and makes you younger. The longer the bull run lasts, the more invincible you'll become. You'll shit long green blocks which smells like your favorite perfume during the bull run.

If you never experienced it before, you are missing a lot but don't lose hope. Bull runs come and visit us approximately every 4 years.

Also, how do you stay level-headed and make smart decisions when prices are skyrocketing?

When prices have skyrocketed and it's time for this cycle to happen, what will investors do?.... In theory, they might sell because they know the price is skyrocketing.

But would you hold on?... That would be a smart decision wouldn't it, I'm assuming you'd hold on longer and go through the current cycle which will last another 4-5 years.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been through some ups and downs in the crypto market, but I haven’t really experienced a true bull run yet. For those who’ve been around during one, I’m curious:

What’s it actually like to experience a bull run in crypto?

How does it feel to watch your portfolio grow? How do you manage the emotions—whether it's excitement, anxiety, or even FOMO? Were there any moments where things went too fast and got overwhelming?

Also, how do you stay level-headed and make smart decisions when prices are skyrocketing?

I’d love to hear your stories and advice!

Depends how much you are making money i guess. Overall bull run can begin and your friends might send congratulations, and your alts that haven't moved an inch. I have encountered on ton of memes about this feeling as well, so it's probably common.

Because there's a big chante that those alts you hodl, might not be part of that bull market. They might be the ones that never ever go up. But you won't sell them, because you have waited for so long that it feels like playing a lottery with same number over and over, so you can't skip a week, because next week those numbers might hit. Selling it when all your senses say that you might miss some serious gains is really hard. If you sell, don't look back, ever. No regrets.

But if you are making serious money during the bull, there can be several emotions:

1. Greed and delusion: It feels unreal, but you accept it quickly. But even if you are making more money, then you have even seen ever in your life, it might look peanuts compared to what you see some others making. You'll start to move your expectations higher, and lose all perspective. It's similar to being in fast car and becoming unaware of one's speed.

2. You'll probably feel like a genius, but try to remember that's not because you are a great trader. It's because of the bull market. Great traders make money no matter if markets are going up or down. You are just being lucky.

3. Identity: It's tempting to see yourself in "new class", but make sure that you don't make "being rich" as part of your identity. Because if you eventually lose your money, it will hurt in a way you haven't prepared for. It feels like dying.

4. Security: You feel safer and more hopeful for the future. This is the best feeling you can get from it imho.

5: Partying: If you like to go to clubs etc, you might feel you need to party, and spend and share that money. That's not however how you should making new friends. Be aware that you have never used such a budget, so you aren't prepared for it. You might make some stupid decisions and it can seriously affect your health.

There's nothing wrong in using your money for yourself and fun, but now if ever, you should quit some vices. Like smoking or drinking. You can find significantly better and healthier choices for your kicks, because you don't have to resort the cheapest and most unhealthiest ways.

But speaking from experience, start selling at some point, and don't hang around in their telegram, because those communities are echo chambers for shilling. And it's harder to sell when everyone is trying to convince you not to sell.

Good luck, hopefully you'll experience it all yourself.

When the prices of all coins skyrocket, it is a sign that the crypto bull run is underway. It is clear that traders and investors will take out all the coins in their portfolio. To maintain when this phase is happening, they don't want this to just be missed.
Every time you see a situation that is skyrocketing, which trader or investor will hold on to the coins they hold, whether they want to continue long term until now, the answer is yes or no. The bull run is the time that investors and forum members have been waiting for to take advantage of this bull run cycle.

A strong trend could be identified as a bull run.If could be for short term or long term as well. However sharing my experience a full bull run is like that nothing could stop it at all. Look like it wanna go up above the sky like rocket. You can see your portfolio will be handsome and surely you gonna rich if you had enough investment before. You have to be patient and need to wisely exit from the market. I think its like a dream now at the moment but it will be true for sure if you have enough believe on this crypto market you will be succeed today or tomorrow.

Having experienced a bull run in crypto is exciting because that is the time for us to get a big profit after we sell our coins. That is why many investors willing to wait for the bull run comes and buy many coins that have potential to explode in the next bull run.

Every people can take part on the bull run but they must have a right coins such as Bitcoin and other potential altcoins. Without having that coins, they will not get the profit like others.

Yes, the moment will going fast without we can notice. But there will be a sign that show the price jump suddenly so we must be prepare for that. You can set your alarm to ring when the price reach certain price you want so you can directly go to the market and place your coins in the price.

It is a period filled with anxiety and excitement that  if you get carried away, you will miss out taking profit because the bear market comes immediately after the bull market. This is why you need to be more focused and don't be greedy.

The best thing to do is for you to have a price target which you will love to sell part of your bitcoin so that whenever bitcoin reaches that price, you sell. You can take profit twice on different price intervals. Don't sell too much because there will be more bull runs to come.

But would you hold on?... That would be a smart decision wouldn't it, I'm assuming you'd hold on longer and go through the current cycle which will last another 4-5 years.

Holding for the next bullish cycle only worth it if you can hold for that long, if a person holding bitcoin know they are in bullish season, probably at peak and there's bigger chance of market making huge correction compared to market resuming its rally and go higher (RSI could indicate this), I'd say it's wiser if they could just sell their bitcoin and come later when dust has been settled, exactly when sentiment is at worst and price has been falling deeper than ever.

The reality is, so many retailer come to bitcoin too late they expect a market that has been pumped to really high height, to resume its rally and go higher, that's when some people get rekt in bullish market and yes it happens too frequently.

so for OP if you're ever feeling you're in bullrun and somehow confused what's the best thing to do, just look at RSI whether it's oversold or not and make decision accordingly.
graph below is a good insight as to what happen when RSI is so high around ATH.

Well for me the feeling of a 'bull run' does make me think I did invest in my crypto smartly. Because we can in vest in so many things but there is more 'bull runs' then there is other like in stock markets.

In that you do not get the same feeling as we do when there is big gains. The big gains do come very fast for us and we can make some big profits. It is not the same for those other investments not even gold and silver.

[mirakal]

How do you feel when you see your investments are dropping its value? The answer to that would be the total opposite when you experience crypto bull run in the future. You don't have to make it complicated. Crypto bull run is the best time to reap what you sow in time when the market is in deep bearish first so you know now what it actually feels if ever.

Yes, we seem to have the world if you invest in coins that have an exponential price increase, because not all coins that exist on Crypto have increased like that even though the end of the time I am sure I will get an increase in price, smart and proud because the number of dollar values ​​in our wallet rises many times many times. Fold, I really miss that right now.

It’s not all about how you feel; before you invest, there must be a target that you will set for yourself that if your investment reaches, so at this point, it is just a normal thing that you will feel when your investment is rising significantly and you see your money continue multiplying, although there is always FOMO at that time, so some individuals normally sell out their investment, but even with that, there should not be a regression because you still did not lose your money but rather you gained.

But some people later regret it because they sell when the bull run just starts early. Some people are selling because they want to lose their money. However, you won’t know where the price of the coin you invested will stop; the only thing is to set a price, and immediately it reaches there, you should sell. Don’t be greedy, thinking that it will surpass that and you may fail.

What’s it actually like to experience a bull run in crypto?
-On the moment that you've seen that Bitcoin had reached or break its new ATH and same goes with those top altcoins in the market and to those darkhorses to reach up those
numbers or peak then this is what Bull run looks like.

How does it feel to watch your portfolio grow? How do you manage the emotions—whether it's excitement, anxiety, or even FOMO? Were there any moments where things went too fast and got overwhelming?
-On the moment that you've seen your portfolio grow then the primary thing that comes up into your mind is to sell on peak, but how you would be able to determine the peak price? This is something that makes you that thinking up and make out some guesses on when to do so. Emotions would really be that something hard to understand on that time. This is why you should really be that wise on taking up action on securing profits
while you can.

Also, how do you stay level-headed and make smart decisions when prices are skyrocketing?
-Set targets-- If you do find out that you have hit up that right moment on selling then sell it out immediately so that whenever the market crashes, then it wont really be leaving any regrets.

I am excited with your this reply because no doubt what we feel when we have loses same happen while we are on positive note even things sometime have no good as we feel because it's unpredictable market, and we have never been sure about when we will be positive or when we are on negative.

Here we also need to understand mostly peoples have some mindset about their trades because they set their targets on start which works for them as they needed to be done, so emotions are always well under control for experienced but never been for the peoples those are having new journey or those are having more than their expectations because sometime things can be gone into beyond your limits which give you extra doze.

Losing some is inevitable in this market. We can't guarantee that we will always be on the winning side. As this market is still very volatile, we can only wish that we will be on the right timing when we execute the trade.
Sure, every trader in this market has the target of gaining high profits. But not everyone can really achieve such target because the timing is quite hard to predict.

You'll shit long green blocks which smells like your favorite perfume during the bull run.

It looks to be easy during a bull market that often lasts for 2 years but investing money into good cryptocurrencies is key to get profit. Don't use margin, leverage, futures trading is another key to get profit and protect your earned profit as well as initial capital.

The easiest thing to notice in a bull market is many people around you will talk about this market. You have to notice that when people who did not have any interest and talk about this market previously, start to say about it, and want or actually invest money in it, it is signal of Euphoria phase and it's good time for you  to consider of exit the market.

If you never experienced it before, you are missing a lot but don't lose hope. Bull runs come and visit us approximately every 4 years.

The cycle of approximate 4 years is set up by Bitcoin and its halving schedule that happens every four years. Without Bitcoin market cycles every four years, altcoins will become very uncertain and people will be more fearful of investment in altcoins.

God wont' save you and your portfolio when the bull market gone.

Losing will really happen for those people don't have long patience. If they think everything is fast towards profit gaining towards crypto or bitcoin then provably that they might just disappoint their selves. Market is volatile that's why its hard to look forward for certain fast gain even when bull run occur since we don't know what will happen next if we can still see those huge green marks or the market will experience a correction.

But for sure those people who bought bitcoin at the dip is happy when they see something bullish trend to occur and its better not to be more greedy to ask for more profit since they would never feel those happiness to gain something especially if they got stuck when correction happen since waiting for another round of pump is stressful.

The "feeling" of bull is basically feeling like you are never going to ever lose money, which is the most common one. Unfortunately too many people get in with too much during bull period and make a mistake, they shouldn't and they should be careful.

I have seen people who joined with others money for example, an accountant in a company bought bitcoin with all of companies money once, and the price went low so he had to sell and cover the difference himself but he was jailed instead. Or we have seen people take out huge loans or sell some stuff they have and invest, why do they do this? Because they feel like they will never lose money during this period and bull will make people feel this way, so be careful about feeling invincible.

[Finestream]

It depends on your knowledge level, really.

Back in 2017, I was really dumb and inexperienced so what I was feeling was generally what idiot 'investors' were feeling — a lot of euphoria and unrealistic expectations; thinking that the way to go for all industries was to tokenize everything and all that dumb crap.

Looking back in hindsight, a huge crash was pretty much inevitable. But yea — going through that 'idiot' stage is probably one of the things every 'investor' should go through to be able to humble themselves up.

I totally agree on this one. The way how you actually feel most literally depends on your level of knowledge and experience. That's why it's not surprising that most newbies and inexperienced investors here share the same feeling and perspectives about crypto bull run, but if you ask them again after years of investing in the crypto market, with all those skills and strategies being molded, that's the time they will be certain on how this crypto bull run has definitely changed their perspectives in their lives.

The bull run is the time that investors and forum members have been waiting for to take advantage of this bull run cycle.

Before any price can skyrocket then you would have seen a tremendous shot from the price of Bitcoin because nothing will happen without Bitcoin other coins have to wait for the master which is Bitcoin to pick up, and when they say we are experiencing a bull run you don't need to be told that this is bull you will just know that there is something unusual happening in the market and you will see a lot of news making it clear that the market is experiencing a bull run.

someone asked me recently if a bull run happens and I told him that if a bull run wants to happen there would be an announcement and this is something that you won't even expect it happen when you don't even expect it to happen Bitcoin is something that will always take people unaware. and if a bull run is happening a lot of holders will sell because they have been waiting for that period to come, they won't hesitate to want to sell so, we have to wait patiently till it happens.

Some people have lost interest in bull runs and that is very wrong and that is why you need to have knowledge then you won't panic.
