I have tried going all in once, but I will never try that again, cause I nearly everything I invested. Well, didn’t lose but was close to losing. This time around whenever I’m trading I just put in part of my money and not all of them. If you’re going all in when LOSS will come you will just lose everything you have (though if it’s PROFIT, then a huge profit).

Reason why I tried it once was because the seemed to be in a good position that day and was going straight up with many predictions that it will continue, so I decided to go all in to make better earnings, but unfortunately things went the unexpected direction. That’s why I don’t also believe these predictions, cause they are mostly wrong. This market is unpredictable.

This would produce the most gains , but if you predict wrong you could be stuck waiting for the price to either come back up or down to get back in. I did this the other day. I sold and bought back in at what I had predicted was going to be the next upswing. However some last second sellers swooped in and dropped the price below my limit. Then it just continued to fall from there. Now I sit and wait for the price to come back up to my purchase price so I can get back at it. I hate waiting. I get antsy. I should have left some money in reserve so I could have at least bought in at the bottom. I got greedy. Now I wait.  Sad

This is a very dangerous strategy. If bad luck hits you can be out of the game in no time.

I personally rarely go all in when trading. I also just go all in with 2 coins and that is Bitcoin and Ethereum. That is the only two coins that I trust will not fail me.

Fortunately when I go all in I have always gained a  good profit.

So I would first say never go all in once coin especially in trades. Also, never sell at loss. Keep what you have until at least break even if it's a bad trade. Trades are hard so I would just have patience because the market won't always be in your favor.

I started my trade a few months ago and I in the start used to invest a small portion of my money in trade but when I found that it is beneficial to invest in trade then I went all in and I did the trade like that for a few months but in that I often have to wait for some longer time for some of my investment and in that I often miss some other opportunities so after that I think it is not better to go all in at one coin/trade.
That is the problem with many newbie investors that they think that they will get a highest amount if they will invest all in and when they invest and they started to lose or they find the coin slower or the coin go drop then they face a headache and they feel like the trade do not work for them and if they will  invest only a portion then they will be good with it.

I never all in commercial, you can see that bitcoin prices in the past days are constantly fluctuating and difficult to guess, so the commercial success at this time is very difficult. You can not guarantee 100% victory, so if you all in the damage will be very heavy, you will be very difficult to do from the beginning. So I think you should split your assets to invest.

I prefer to put my all in when I research much in a project and all the factors i consider are just on point. Although it is risky, I have conditioned my mind to think of the benefits I may get rather than thinking about the risk involved. I have developed the winning mentality and it keeps working for me.

Base on my experienced most of the time market reacts opposite to what i think that is why when i sold or sell my coin i do it by tranch not just in one transaction. and as what other traders keep saying"do not put all your eggs in one basket" lesrn how to diversify in several coins. trading need patience if you don't have it probably you will loss your investment.

Definitely not mate. I don't go all in almost all of the time because I try to test out my trades first before doing that. I don't want to risk it out to trade everything I have just to see it vanish in front of my face because I sought for a trade due to a temporary rise that would soon fall apart. That's the usual scene in this market. It is so hard to make it work for your, especially if you don't study and follow the trends really closely. That's what, I think, separates the seasoned and pros with the beginners. They have a better feel for the market.

No I don't I still save some money in my wallet so if I ever need some in case of emergency it wouldn't affect my trading,
It is better to save some than to put it all in then when some emergency case's occur you would have to sell some of your alt-coin,
What if the alt-coins are being dump when you need some money?

When trading, the best attitude to have patience. A trader must be patient enough to wait for the right time to buy, sell or trade. I think it is also best to know your limitations, just give in what you think you can handle to lose and don't put so much emotion with trading. If you get so emotional, you might end up very stressed or depressed when you lose or might end up selling all you have in a very low price.

Bro, it is not so easy to stay patient when you are watching the situation when your coin is dropping, or vice versa, gaining. By the way, what is funny, in both variants, many guys want to sell their crypto.

no, I may only use about 40% of the funds I have if there is a potential coin. I do not want to take all the risks at once. Careful play is the best thing to do to become a trader. remain patient, although sometimes it shows great benefits.

if there is a great opportunity i'm usually selling all my assets, and re-buying at lower price

But it is still not good to all in that we had into our pocket savings. Trading as of the moment is good for a part time or extra income, especially if 

you have a job or a family man. Unless, paper money is no longer useful at all.

"All in" is the worst idea! Because you can lose everything in one moment. I only trade that amount of money that I can afford to lose or simply forget for a long time. And most importantly, I always have fiat money and never trade for borrowed funds.

This is the psychology FOMO many people get into the trade, you should learn how to manage capital before investing. There are many ways to be more effective and safer for you as the average price, when coin trend is bearish you want to buy should split the price to buy the average price you buy will not be too high. Reduce risk for you when you all print at a price.

of course not, if I use all the capital I have, of course I can not enjoy the opportunity when there are some altcoin that experienced the price increase so I better share my trading capital so I can utilize some other coin for profit.
Same with my thoughts, I would not go for all in, I will do trading but I will trade all my coins. I will still do holding to my other coins so that I will have a better outcome when the price increases.

that is between when you trade with all in.

so my advice next time when you are not stuck with the price below do not use tactics ALL IN again, but must use the second way yaiut play safe and "back up".

There is a very good strategy when the budget for trade is divided into 3 equal parts. You invest one part when you decide to buy. The second part for additional purchases, for example, if prices fell sharply. The third part is for extraordinary cases. It's rarely used, it's a spare budget. If you use exchanges, use stop-loss.
But i think that most of the people do not have such strategy they are just simply buy bitcoin for all the amount of money they have, they in fact do not have any good strategy about bitcoin investment or trading, and that is the reason that for most of the time they cannot get the require profit from their investment and trading.

When I need money there’s no other way for me but to sell my coins cheaply. If not, I will certainly hold my coins and wait. Then I increase the price.

I love this strategy. This would be one of the best plans that can help you to maximize your investment and the best use of your financial management. When the first portion is invested or traded, that must not be disturbed again just for the sake of some needs. There must be a secondary source of income that can be used to quiches that specific needs. While third is only for extreme emergency cases.
