Topic: 5 Bear Market Mistakes to Avoid - page 4. (Read 1278 times)

When the market moves down, we shouldn't panic because that will trigger us to be affected by the happening circumstances and we can't handle it. Our psychology as traders and investors will definitely be affected but if we have good self-control, it won't happen to us and instead, we can find a way to use that moment for our benefit. Investing and trading certainly have their respective risks and we must know how to anticipate them so that we don't panic if market conditions change direction. Losing money is a risk in investing and trading so we must be prepared for that risk.

But that's the truth although they didn't have as much bad habits as we do today when investing. Those who are rich today through investing had long term goals when they invested and were not move by the short term market movement as we are seeing recently.
Today investors are impatient and just want to make quick money which is why we're seeing so much volatility in the market.
The whales pump shit tokens which newbies chase after then later dump it when enough profit has by made.
One bad habit to avoid is the act of impatient, just invest and forget about it and when you come back years from now, you'll be in so much profit that even though the market dip, you won't be at loss.

For investors, the three highlighted are very key, it is important to learn to stay calm during the bear period, panicking and selling off your asset may not be the right choice, especially if you are not sure to be able to buy them back at a cheaper rate.
It is very important to think long term, that will make a sudden drop in price not a big deal since your goal is long term. And most importantly, no need to be overstressed about the price, if you already understand the market circle and also hold a solid coin, e.g btc or good alts like bnb, eth there is no need to be stressed.
Better to take a break from the market and enjoy life with family and friends.

Wouldn't say that you can avoid it all the time tbf. It's about handling it instead. E.g., a rapid market crash can lead to you creating panicked moves, rather than settling down and thinking properly about what to do. You're still panicking ofc, but you won't let it affect your capability to come up with a proper judgment. Not to mention that well, losing money in general when investing is something natural, whether it was worth it or not.

Investing short term though is still possible, albeit difficult. You just have to get the timings right imo and you can still do it, though just simply waiting for the bottom might be much easier in most cases. 

These is the basic things to avoid during the bearish market and also even the bullish era. Because if we panic and cannot control our emotions, we seem to be ended with something dangerous. Taking bad decisions at the wrong time and also being stressed every time the prices or the market crashes. The result? many people will sell their assets panicky which makes the market worse and many people lost their money. So far, although we have met this situation similarly, in fact, we cannot deny that many people still panic when facing this kind of situation.

Both short-term and long-term investments will depend on how the people make their strategy. But for me, I do agree with your statement. The bearish market is the est period for collecting more coins and holding them into the bullish era coming. This is commonly for long-term period. That is why we must invest with free money so we will not use the money in several months or year.

No matter how hard you try as a trader, you will not be able to avoid all of these five blunders. We are all human, and sometimes we just can't control how we feel about things; it's just the way they are. These are favorable points that, if avoided, can lead to a pleasant outcome and an expected perspective regarding a result.

The degree to which these five errors can be controlled cannot be overstated. We all know how the market works and how volatile it can be. The best thing to do is to prepare for the worst in whatever situation the market finds itself in during the bear market time. Following that, you should have sufficient knowledge of the bitcoin market before investing in it.

While investing in anything, we must always ensure that there are risks involved. So yes bear market is just a phase of trading. So if you give up during this, then you are not fit for trading. Normally during a bear market, many traders think of long term investments, this will help them not to loss exit from market. And as said bear market is a phase, so yes as soon as it ends, definitely you will see profit. So we need to just be mentally strong and stop panicking. We need to think wisely and use the bear market properly for our own benefits.

A very common mistake is that only the shape of the chart is seen and the volume is not studied at all, the volume is something very important and that must be studied very carefully and more in a small market, many go for the form of the chart and sometimes they determine that it can go up in price and what it does is go down even more, these are the things that can happen, and normally this type of error can not only happen to a novice, there are times when a veteran trader and investor could also happen to him, so these things are valid, I say this because it has happened to me, and I don't want it to happen to anyone else, although it is a very common mistake.

Everyone is eager to make money from the market and that's why we invest. It's because we've been told that people who are so rich right now went through all their ways and riches through investing.

All of them has advantage and disadvantage based on everyone's experience. Some may like to avoid bitcoin but many of us would tell that don't avoid it because it's still the safe haven of investing in crypto.

Let's look at investing in a panic as a warning or an op underlined, so in the investment one thing that people think about most is the target via investment, because I have noticed that while some lose most the target via investment is because they were eager to make money in the market and also not to venture into lose in of their investment, so from my perspective it's incorrect because it's obvious that any investment of cryptocurrency has benefits and drawbacks. Because one of the things that causes business setbacks in any industry is panic,

I think focus on metal health is much important than any thing else.
 If anyone want long term holding, must keep in decentralized wallet and stick only to bitcoin don't go toward alts for long term.
However intraday trading is best in bear market like quick in and out, no need to open leverage trade for the sake of certain target nobody know what will be the situation of market tomorrow. Don't be a victim of FOMO.

Have firm faith in crypto

Trading with emotions will definitely leads to FUD which have strain many traders behind and causing more liquidation and losses in trading positions. But the facts is very clear, we should always expects losses as we are gaining profits, even the top experts who are granded in TA and FA still experience losses. I have learn to adjust my trading position to a more suitable size which is expecting more profits than losses, but hoping to fully reduce losing to it's least minimal size, and also learning from my experience will enchance my capability to do more better in the coming days.

Some times you to be panic do to the money that you invested in crypto because you cannot see the future but you only only predict it. And for very human being you need be afraid of what future will bring and that is why they always warn us to invest what we can afford to lose, so that will not be in state of hurry like that.

I don't see anything that is bad when you decide to invest in short period of term, all you need  is  to plan urself well.just know the time to buy and time sell and you be making your profit.for me I like short term investment because I don't have the feelings of waiting for long term.

Yes Overtrading is always a big risky. You decided to trade with huge amounts of money  just because you want to make a quick money or recovered your loses but crypto don't work like that because nobody knows what the future price of crypto will bring. Always avoid what you can't afford to lose.


In whatever we do, health should always be the first thing we should  put in concentration. Is when you have good health you can able to do a lot of  things in this life, especially when it turn to term of crypto it is your health that will determine the type of investment you will do, either to invest in long term ot short term.

Emotions will definitely do that, you should always try to stay away from emotions that way you will not be losing anything in the long run. I personally do not care if I win or lose, that's not something I look at when I am making a win or a loss, but that doesn't mean that I will always end up with a win, sometimes I still lose but I try to avoid considering about that all that much.

Obviously you can't just let it be and move on, you shouldn't let it dictate your future trading, but you could always learn why you made that mistake so that you could learn from your losses and earn more in the future, it could bring you a lot of profit.

I believe that many people understand what you said, but it is easy to say, and they all know the truth. But when you are on the scene, your mentality will subtly change --- your brain and hands are not in the same channel, the brain gives the correct answer, but the hand writes a wrong result.

In trading that I experienced, we cannot think positively continuously, it will increase optimism which is quite dangerous in trading both defeats and wins, will make careless choices. During my trading, positive and negative thoughts must be in your brain and heart so you can consider the risks you take. Why is that?
Positive thinking will overshadow us to keep trying and trying because it comes from self-confidence that gives birth to ambition.
Whereas negative thoughts will give us a sense of fear that makes us aware.
The conclusion is that negative and positive thoughts must exist as a controlling power within us, when to continue and when to stop.

If we can not control greed, we will not be able to take advantage of what is in front of us because we still want even greater profits. Even so, this cannot always happen, considering market conditions always change. And if after we make profits, it turns out that market conditions are still improving, we don't need to regret it because we still have the opportunity to take profits again later. The important thing is that we keep trying to get it.

That means they don't make a lot of profit but can get a loss because they sell when the price drops again. This has happened to many traders who could not take advantage of the bullish moments that occurred for some coins, so they were too late to take profits. Even if they could do it, they would benefit greatly. Greed and panic will make the trade crash, and you will not be able to take advantage of it.

If they are not afraid of a decline and can become strong people holding their coins, later they will be able to smile again, seeing their coins increase again. Not many can do it because it's very hard but at least we should try to try it for our own good. If we continue like that, when will we be able to take big profits when the market is bullish again?

We must be able to survive in the current bearish condition and as much as possible, use this moment to buy more because this is the only chance we have instead of regret. And before the regret gets bigger, we should keep trying to survive and buy whatever we can but don't buy with all the money we have because that is not recommended instead, buy it gradually.

Also depends on the choice of coin you have in your mind or what crypto you are exactly holding during the bear times because if you are having some fake token or meme coin which have no future ahead and you know they won't survive this bear market and would be dumping afterwards so will you be holding it for long term? Not at all so the factors change with your strategy and coin you are holding.

Actually there are a lot of things to avoid in a bear market and those newbies can actually learn from the existing experience,
but it must also be realized that in the newbie stage I think making mistakes is a natural thing,
besides that with these mistakes they indirectly learn and that's the most important thing

However, if you are still a newbie in trading, never expect that you can actually avoid all of them as most of the newbies are prone to commit mistakes because it’s the only way where they can learn and improve from their own mistakes. But I believe with a lot of years they keep on trading, they will eventually learn to avoid these common traders pitfalls because they also start to grow along with their experiences.
