If you know it will crash, then the best thing to do is always short it before it does. But technically it is so hard to predict this, it is even harder to predict a crash than if the asset would go up. There are so much factors involved in shorting something that it is practically impossible to always profit from shorting. But, if you shorted btc back when it was $19,000 then that would have been a good profit right there. Right now there are so much alts that are so high, that you could probably short too.

There is only one strategy to profit from crash, get out and go in when it's at the bottom of the spike

This is not necessarily the only strategy. You can actually profit from crashes if you short Bitcoin or whatever coin you are trading. But shorting is not recommended unless you know exactly what you are doing and have deep understanding of the market. Its major drawback is that your profit potential is limited since the coin can't drop below 0. On the flip side though, your potential for loss is virtually unlimited because once the price starts to rise it can rise very high nonstop.

If, for you, a crash is already inevitable, then I would suggest anytime from today moving froward is a good time to cash in your coins. Nobody can determine when bitcoin will crash. You can have a very bad news like a country outlawing bitcoin every now and then but it doesn't mean that bitcoin will suddenly go zero. Just look at its history. Times have changed and it may change again.

It could make sense because once it go deeper, it's really hard for it to recover immediately especially those coins that for a long time that are sleeping. Only investors could make the market moving and with them, dumping coins will surely grow gradually.

I am still down but I will continue holding until it gets back to over 17K. This is still to be blamed on the seasonal oscillations so I hope to start profiting again at the middle of January.

No one can give you an assurance that everytime there is a crash you can expect a pump and that investment duribg this time will make profit afterwards. Bitcoin is unpredictable and what people are holding in times of investment when the valie of crash is only hope that the value will pump soon as they take a risk and give trust to bitcoin investment. If you will not take chances I don't think you will able to earn good enough from bitcoin.

In my part i believe that the most common strategy is that buying during bitcoin is falling down and selling when it has really recoveted from crashing.I dont really think that bitcoin can really fall into zero value falling down of the price is just a opportunity to buy many bitcoins and waiting for a high price to gain through price changing this things  is almost happens everyday.

I don't think BTC will fall to zero. You can profit if you make the investment when the BTC price is low. BTC price will for sure rise even more. Many of the investors are afraid of the constant changes in the market that the best strategy would be to buy when BTC is low and sell it when it is high.

I still not find a good way to profit from the crash, which seems happening though. Of course the CDF profit I posted was just to make fun, from my test account on a broker. I want to switch to real money, but then the lower the maximum positions a lot. So you should do a whole lot of orders to get somewhere. So this was also not an option.

Maybe I should just stay away from this all and keep on doing my day job  Tongue

Hey dude the cryptocurrency is not just about Bitcoin only, it's not that you could buy profit just from that one. Questions aside, i personally think that bitcoin is too speculative to be to able to truly 'DIP' or 'Sell at ATH'. Bigger player are seriously fiddle with this market and you are pretty risky trying to be smarter than them, i would seriously suggest for you to look into Alts if you really do wanna make effort to be onboard x10 train.

CFD and short selling is even more risky, except you are exceptionally sensitive trader, you got the basic right and seriously there is nothing you could do if your reserve is not fat enough. Good luck in your future investment though.
I agree...we saw on the example of bitcoin what can the cryptocurrency do...maybe it's worth to expand the boundaries and to move on?

For me, the market of cryptocurrency is still raw because only few people knows about it and fewer people gets involved. I also suggest that you should try look for ICO if you want a long term investment. Just know the basics like reading their whitepaper, analyze if their roadmap is feasible etc., and niche market of that coin/token to be ensure that it is a good investment.

Today create the best opportunity to buy bitcoin as the price has clash down compared to were we were the day you make this post. Bitcoin fell below  $6,000 this morning though it has started recovery and I have see buying momentum gathering up. I hope we take this opportunity and buy bitcoin cheap. Days are coming when we are going to have serious pump before end of this year.

As much as you could, we must buy and hold bitcoin specially in times when value shows sudden fall. Bitcoins value once become low is tge best opportunity to get better profit.  Whats sure about bitcoin is that, eveb it falls it easily regain its value and continue to rise more than highest value it reached. I wont be surprise once it hit 10,000$ mark before the year end. We have seen tremendous growth in the paat months and thia is enough reason to get bitcoin as much as we can afford.

Fluctuations are normal. The price can decline more and more. This creates the opportunity of getting more bitcoin cheaply for us. Bitcoin declined this time because of bcc, next time it can happen because of china, next time because of usa etc.

This will go like this. And we will need to benefit from the pattern.

I will be honest, I regret the day that I did not start with bitcoin. It was in the very early days, value was still around $1. But I calculated that the costs of mining would exceed the value of the coin. Then around 2011 I had some money to 'invest' and considered bitcoin. I don't even want to calculate the value it would be now, that's just frustrating  Grin. But hindsight is always easy. If we could look into the future we would all be millionaires the next day.

But I could not stop following it because I like the technology and also the economic aspect. So I believe the point of investment is just gone. Even if it go's up to 100.000 this still would 'only' be about 10 times the value now, so not the mega profit from the early days.

But I'm convinced that bitcoin will crash some day. Not because of envy, but there are a lot of things pointing to a tipping point. A bubble for sure. The question is when will people realize this and when will the fall start.

So I'm pretty sure about this and this time I don't want to miss this opportunity. The question is, what would be the best strategy to profit from this crash? I thought CFD's and short-selling, but when it go's up a lot, I don't have the equity to hold the positions and they will be terminated/margin call. Also I don't trust the brokers, will they pay when the fall is huge?

We can discuss about a crash yes or no, but for me this is not a question anymore. The only question is, how can I make sure not to regret this opportunity this time.



There isn't a point in waiting for crash to make profit. If small crash happens like 1-2k downfall, it won't let you make mega profit as you desiring for. If big crash happens say Bitcoin returns below $2K, Bitcoin won't be able to revive this fall as such major fall would be due to technical or feasible overthrowing of Bitcoin. If such thing happens, Bitcoin will become secondary cryptocurrency.
So best is to procure Bitcoin now and be happy with whatever profits you will able to make. Or try altcoins.

Update: those two orders, over €23.000 now.  Shocked

But mostly due bitcoin cash. It's not completely weird. When the bitcoin will crash, people will flee into other things, so maybe BCH for a while, till same thing happens.

Whatever, this time I'm in front seat, and enjoying the ride so far  Cheesy
Well, honestly i think it is a little bit too late to profit really well on BCH: unless your investment is huge, but within this extremely big BTC price drop, all alts are going on red.
BCH seems to get a little bit of buildup when BTC drops, but lets face it: BCH will never win with bitcoin.

Well I think crash is the most essential part of bitcoin, since its value goes up and down it can always be used as a plus point.
First of all the value of bitcoins are already very high and it keeps fluctuating between the Range of 500 dollars, thus if you buy bitcoins in a large sum you can easily earn easy money within a period of time, bitcoins is the most accepted currency thus people will continue to invest in it before anything else, so sooner or later you can expect a pump in the value.
Just buy during crash and sell during pump.

No logic, just greed.

If you still believe in BTC can't blame you.

I regret that I missed the BTC rush, but did not say the rust was true value. Only speculation I believe. The same is happening with BCH/BCC at this very moment. I was just in time I believe.

Only time will tell if I was right. I don't care if I'm right or wrong, but I do care about my wallet  Wink...


Bitcoin is a digital currency system and it's today rate was good and the value of bitcoin is high it's increased day by day and in two three day only rate was reduced in this little strategy to profit to cash.
