I have been thinking about when to start selling my 2 bitcoins I purchased for $21,000 each average price during 2022 lows.
I keep hearing things like we could spike to 200K really quickly and stuff like that, maybe in just weeks.
My question is when will you guys start to sell if we have a major spike?
I used to think I wanted to sell at 100K, but this is rising so fast I have been thinking more like 150K to start selling.
How will you sell, slowly into a spike or wait for a set price and just dump.
lol anyone telling you it could spike to 200k quickly is straight up lying to you. Please if you are participating in the market you should have at least a basic sense of the amount of money this all involves and be able to easily realize such a statement is pure nonsense. $200k maaaaaaaybe could happen this bull market, though I think it is unlikely, so most likely scenario is bitcoin hits $200k in about 4 years, not in a few weeks lol.
Personally I expect the peak of this cycle to be around $150k, and I do plan on selling some of my bitcoin as it rises towards that (some of that money will be bought back in on the crash). I plan to start selling a very tiny amount around $110k-$120k, and then most of my planned selling from $130k-$150k, so I'm hoping it hits $150k as that is my highest planned sell.
But I've been holding my bitcoin a lot longer than you and I'm only selling some of my bitcoin in order to set me up to never worry about money again (being a bitcoin millionaire but only having like $5k in the bank is kinda a silly thing for me to continue doing haha). So selling a bit this cycle is part of my life long financial plan and this money will go toward not only giving me plenty of cash so I don't ever have to worry about being short on cash again, but also other things that will increase my income, and the excess will be poured back into Bitcoin on the next bear market.
My point is, you don't NEED to sell during the bull market. Why are you selling? Just because price went up a bunch? Cuz price is going to go many times higher in the future. So if this is meant to be your long term savings, and unless you need the money for some purpose, I would recommend you to just hold through the market cycle. Hold long term. That way you aren't trying to guess when to sell in the next 12 months or whatever, and instead you just let that money keep growing over many years. If you need money for a specific purpose, unless you are like buying a house, you probably only need to sell a little bit of your 2 bitcoins, and should hold the rest long term so you can be spending it when price is $500k, $700k, $1 million, etc, instead of just selling it in the first bull market you've seen.
