How to manage fear of lost as a Bitcoin investors

[laspol65]

Some of the keys factor to look as an investor
Know your risk tolerance, the ability of accepting the losses of your investment exchange, invest only what you can afford to lose. Not your life saving not what you borrow, only what you afford to lose in case such happen as a beginner.
Other factor like your homework, research Bitcoin trending news, coinmarkercap, coin telegraph, understand why you are investing not as just a feeling because others are doing it

You should never invest beyond your means, if you invest beyond your means then your chances of losing will be highest. You can gain more experience to get rid of losses, there are some investors who fail to benefit from the market. They cannot control their money and use their experience properly, the market can change at any time, but in this case it is better to get involved in long-term investments.

There are many ways for investors but not all of them will succeed, investor failure is excessive fear, investing in bitcoin is very profitable from the beginning until now, the easiest technique for beginners is DCA considering it lost money but routinely buying 2 times in one month, routinely up to 5 years I am still very sure 100% that is the easiest way to take advantage in the long term

This usually happens to beginners, I think it's normal or common for them to feel panic and fear of losing their Bitcoin assets, Their knowledge or insight is the main trigger. I think to overcome all this it would be better for them to look at or study history and history from the beginning until now and also recognize the bull tun halving cycle and the bearish phase. By knowing all this, I think the fear will disappear by itself. and on the contrary, by knowing more details about Bitcoin, you will be very confident and enthusiastic about collecting as much as you can and of course holding it for the long term.

You can plan for long-term investments. But the fear that investors feel shows that they are inexperienced or not confident in the assets they have chosen. That's the mistake. When you have the knowledge and experience for the assets you invest in, there should be no fear overshadowing any volatile market situation. If you don't yet know and aren't confident in the assets you want to invest in, then why are you investing?

They sell because overwhelming fear and excessive anxiety take over them and affect their decisions. I consider the psychological factor to be one of the most important factors that determines whether they hold their assets patiently or sell them in panic.

Also, some people don't assess the level of risk before investing, nor do they manage their capital properly, which makes them sell even at a loss when faced with any adverse circumstances. Many beginners also neglect to set a clear strategic plan for their investments with defined goals. Furthermore, some are influenced by rumors, negative news, or temporary market dips. Unfortunately, this causes them to sell regardless of the profits they have missed; their only concern is exiting the market with the least possible loss.

Good Bitcoin investor must know the right time to sell , since person has be accumulating for long mostly Long time holder, except it's a trader but if the investor happened to be a trader he must buy the appropriate time buy, because if you always buying when the market is green and refused to buy when the market is red , such investor can't escape lost because it's knowledge towards the system is not enough yet. fear of lost is natural in any investment but risk management help in cutting down this fear mostly when the investor has a good knowledge and invested at the right time especially buying at the dip in the case if Bitcoin and also have hold for long where allot has happened and experience has been seen you can easily peak your target where such lost can be overwhelmed.

If you don't have the patience and start the wrong idea then for certain you will lose because the bear season and wait period for Bitcoin to grow and gat something tangible to be related as profit is very long and it's only those that start up with thought of investing on long term journey that can withstand the pressure of the dip and bear market that you will get to see your investment drop do badly. The good side of everything is that if you just hold on then Bitcoin will grow back and add more value, this is what it has been doing for more than a decade now.

I think the best way is to manage your investment, and also invest from your discretionary income which is a money that you can afford to loose, and an investor should also have it at the back of his mind to focus more attention on buying more bitcoin little by little and that will help more in terms of sustainability of our investment, and also trying to have some backup funds which will actually help in keeping our investments more safe.

I think if we are able to focus more on buying bitcoin with our discretionary income instead of using money that is meant for paying our basic expenses, because some individual uses money that is meant for paying basic need to invest, then when some life challenges comes they end up panicking and selling there Bitcoin because they didn’t plan very well, having a good plan is very good and essential in terms of buying bitcoin.

Sure that is the best way when you are using your discretionary income to invest in bitcoin that will make you have peace of mind in your investment is just for you to be topping your bitcoin investment anytime you receive money gradually you will see your bitcoin will be many and get huge profit when the price raises. But when you invest with the money you can't afford to lose you will surly regret because bitcoin is always a long term process you can't just invest now and think you will be profitable in a short term you need to keep it for long term and get profit.

That is why you should think before taking actions. Some people risk there funds to get huge profit in bitcoin even the money they didn't suppose to used in bitcoin they used it as a risk and probably he favours them. But not every risk you takeout can be profitable, but if you minimize your risk and used what you can afford to lose and invest in bitcoin you will always be calm without worrying of losing in the market. Because anytime if the price decrease he will surly raise again even he didn't raise now for some money or year he will surly increase that is bitcoin.

Any investor feels the fear of losing especially if he is new to the investment, or he is still less knowledgeable on the kind of investment he decides to venture. I guess the only way he'll be able to manage his fear is to know his investment well, be aware of its risks and how to combat them, and most importantly, learn to invest on what you can afford to lose. There is no room for greed in any investment, because that is the reason why your emotions takes control of your mind, when it should be mind over emotions.

Of course every new Investors usually have this feeling of losing, that is because they are yet to know how the market works. I'm sure that those Old Investors also face this fear of losing that's when they were still newbies, so it's normal for a beginner to feel scared since it is thier first experience I believe with time they would definitely get used to everything. About this issue of risk, of course it is very important to manage our risk no matter the situation. we shouldn't be carried away to an extent where we would forget about risk management.

Don’t check price frequently. You will not suffer a realized unless you already sold your holdings. You will feel anxiety and fear if you keep checking the price since it’s too volatile. There’s always a bearish season on every cycle so it’s normal that it will correct after a price surge.

Holding long term without checking the price helps me to holding without experiencing fear because I’m already used to the price dip.

It's now very clear that benefit of investing in Bitcoin is for long term not for few weeks or months. These days Bitcoin price is going down and there is great uncertainty spread in the market, where people are doubtful about future price of Bitcoin. This happens every time Bitcoin price goes down and the whales take full advantage of such situation by buying Bitcoin in great quantity. Till date there is dip or bear season that is followed by massive bull run. If we overcome our fear and but at dip then we can get good ROI when Bitcoin goes up.   

The price already recovered a little bit by the time we made the post that proves us right for not checking the price frequently will help you to overcome the dip without any since it will naturally recover in the long run.

I just checked the price now after seeing your replies and I’m happy that it’s already on 90K price range while it was down to 80K during the initial dip.

There’s no point on checking price frequently if the price of Bitcoin is consistently growing in the long run.

Newbies still cannot relate to Bitcoin, if only they knew whatever amount they accumulate remains the same, even through dips, the price drops not the amount of Bitcoin, 1 Bitcoin remains 1 Bitcoin even though the price falls, as long they hold, definitely the price will bounce back, losses only happens from selling below price purchased. The best part of making profits from Bitcoin is buying from dips and selling high, dips are the best phase to carry on accumulation, including those who DCA, dips are for aggressive buying.

[Youngrebel]

Another very important point to note before investing is to ensure that you donot invest because a friend or colleague is also investing in Bitcoin.  In time past ive encountered someone who lived in regrets for a very long time over a loss from an investment.  He didn't know anything about the investment scheme but because people around him were investing he also joined in investing money at the end he lost and regretted ever joining others to do what he was not ready to do in the first place.
Be sure you have a conviction in your heart and gather enough knowledge  about Bitcoin invest and set your heart to bear whatever the  outcome would be then you can set off for it.

Bitcoin is like a digital asset, but if you intend to trade it, you need to be consistent as a business man and trader. Personally I think altcoin is a trading part only to grow up real crypto BTC!

Your explanation is really confusing. Bitcoin is not a digital asset, but it is a digital asset. Anyone who wants to trade bitcoin should first make a move to know what they want to get involved in, not knowing could lead to another thing, and I consider even holding bitcoin as a businessman to be more profitable than trading it, all you need do is buy and hold for long time focus on your business and don't invest more than your business can afford to stay without, and you will profit from that investment in the long run compare to risky trading.

They cannot control their money and use their experience properly, the market can change at any time, but in this case it is better to get involved in long-term investments.

You can plan for long-term investments. But the fear that investors feel shows that they are inexperienced or not confident in the assets they have chosen. That's the mistake. When you have the knowledge and experience for the assets you invest in, there should be no fear overshadowing any volatile market situation. If you don't yet know and aren't confident in the assets you want to invest in, then why are you investing?

Fear is inevitable, but you can always learn to manage and lessen the fear. That is why investors prefer long term investments because they can always find means to correct their mistakes and get back to profiting. But if your goal is to invest and expect instant profits, that kind of mindset alone is already a big mistake. You will not succeed and profit there, but instead will suffer from consistent losses because any investment requires patience, not greed and wrong mindset that creates wrong decisions.

Any investor should think about risk and try to manage it before jumping straight into investing. Beginners also need more thorough preparation in several areas, including mental preparation and knowledge, in addition to having capital to buy Bitcoin, which is a cold fund that isn't used for other things. As for things like fear and the like, I believe it's simply due to a lack of knowledge among novice investors. Once they understand the methods and risks, that fear will diminish, especially if they become accustomed to buying Bitcoin under any circumstances.

That is why new investors have the highest investment risk because they do not know much about Bitcoin and its technical knowledge. As you said, an investor needs to be aware of the risks before investing. If newbies can gain knowledge about investment risks, then their chances of losing money can be reduced to a great extent. A new investor can start without the need to be very knowledgeable about Bitcoin. You should start with just discretionary funds and have a long-term investment mindset rather than thinking about getting short term profits.

I would advise newbies to use discretionary income instead of using capital during the learning period. Also, if they have floating cash funds, then buying Bitcoin will not be a wrong decision for them. It is better for newbies to choose DCA as a regular Bitcoin accumulation strategy to learning period. As they learn about Bitcoin they will be more aware of doing aggressive DCA.

To manage the fear of lost as a Bitcoin Investor you must not take all the risk with your full capital. Make sure you have a reserved fund just in case any of your trades didn't check out. A beginner must learn how to invest little, focus on making little profits than eyeing the big gains.

It is also pertinent to note that you must invest only your own personal funds and not a borrowed money which will definitely push you to make bad decisions due to lack of confidence.

Be sure again to have another side hustle to back up your crypto investment simply because when you encounter losses, you'll fall back to your side hustle business which will serve as a back up.

All these reasons need to be in place for proper enlightenment before venturing into investment in crypto.

[Osiokwudiri]

As an investor there is two things that come into our mind either lost or gain. So when you have this in your mind it also control your mindset on what to invest. Invest what you can able to loose. Every investor is a risk taker mostly when it comes to Bitcoin that the price is not stable. We are not here to discourage anyone but to encourage us that every business is a two ways this thing. But we pray gain more.

Start small, scale slow, test with the manageable amount to lose in case marker exchange change as a newbie, then gradually increase as you feel comfy. Set rules, No emotion , in this case decide price to buy/sell before you sweat. Stay updated, not obsessed, that's to set alerts on weekly check, join calm crypto communities group (Twitter, telegram Facebook ) seek support, talk to a trusted financial advisor not influencers , all this help in managing the fear of investors.

The part I blacked out and some other you said isn't all that necessary when starting Bitcoin investment unless of course you want to go into trading.....To manage the fear of loss, investors should avoid poor storage of their seedphrase and unnecessary sales.  Folks should always keep their seedphrase offline and im secured locations...And also, Bitcoin as we all know is volatile, meaning that the price is always going up and down. That is why the target of Bitcoin investors should always be holding for 4 years above and not less due to unnecessary sales...And to achieve this they have to prioritize the use of Discretionary income in their investments. They should never invest with borrowed funds or the money that they will be needing anytime soon...

In any investment, knowledgeable is very important. This is what many lack, and reason why they failed in their investment, because they don’t wait to learn the process of what they are trying to invest in before putting their money into it.

Which is very wrong, in the crypto investment knowledge is the first thing one should be aware of, whether trading or investment when you have the knowledge it will be more easier for you, but putting your money into what you don’t know is very difficult and even riskier than who have the knowledge, even though you invest in the same thing.
