Topic: Bitcoin Bullish period and advantage. - page 7. (Read 1801 times)

As an example, in addition to the OP's post, this company is MicroStrategy; they have the largest amount of bitcoins of any country in the world, which is worth $14 billion . In the same way, you can pay attention to the fact that many Bitcoin holders at this time also expect profits and do not sell Bitcoins, which suggests that anyone who correctly understands the value of investing in Bitcoin will always win.

A person that would like to obtain that kind of success as a trader will need to make trading their main occupation, and very few people have the capital already to do this, besides even if the profits can be higher for traders, the risks they have to take are many times higher as well.

This explains why there are so few successful traders out there, while successful investors are way more common, as often what you need are not some specialized skills, instead what you need is to be patient and hold your coins even when the price is going down.

Many investors tend to withdraw their investments during bullish periods, but the diversity of investors in bitcoin is remarkable. But now that the high price trend is withdrawing some amount of bitcoin, how can the decision to fix the purchase target during the next bearish season? Although I would mostly not make a sell decision and wait until the high price of $100k or so. Investing in bitcoin can provide a lot of psychological peace of mind which is not the case with any other investment.

With DCA, you invest your money with time and you don't care about dips. This gives you some advantage and biggest one is no headache to wait for dips, find bottoms and so on.

Because one market cycle usually lasts four years with about 2 years of bear market, you will have a lot of time to buy dips in 2 bearish years. If you see your investment strategy like this, you actually buy dips with DCA strategy in bear market.

By DCA, sometimes you will fortunately buy at exact dips but even you buy without exact dips as your entries, you will still be able to average your entry price to low enough and certainly will never have your entry price at ATH or top area.

A wise investor won’t invest during the time of BTC appreciation but will have to wait to invest during the time of its depreciation. This is just a smart concept that every investor can use for their business holdings in the real world obtainable assets by investors. No one is buying to lose, so they’ll look for a good entry time to consolidate what they’ll buy to keep for the long run.The time of appreciation is always the time for smiles to come back to the faces of all investors and not to encourage them to add more coin (FOMO), especially for those that are mostly buying at dips.


DCA and Hodling still have their own advantages that cannot be ignored. Not everyone can be financially buoyant to buy at the Dip but many would have been willing to pay some money timely to buy some bitcoins and hold it for a very long time to come to benefit from the investment. It is much advisable to buy at the dip but if you can’t afford it, stick to a DCA plan that’ll benefit you for years to come.


Trading is not better than investment, you can only do the one that works best for you which is where characterisation of your believe and option about cryptocurrency lies for the future.

Well investors won't be requiring that much time than with those who do Day trade. Bottomline here is efficiency; of course in day trading, there is a higher profit potential because the market prices are volatile. You just could make money in every pump and dump however, would you be able to do it consistently? You'd only win 4 on 10 trades (just a speculation).

I made this comparison 'coz I've been trading Bitcoin for the last 5 years. Also, I have no memories of Bitcoin falling to $5k in 2020. But going back, a friend of mine who just buys and sells on bull and bear seasons, is making a bigger profit than me and my conclusion is efficiency in trading. You won't win most of the time because the market is unpredictable in its nature.

What you are saying it totally makes sense on paper, the problem is that nobody ever know when we are either at the bottom or at the top. There are plenty of people who sold all their bitcoins when we were just at the beginning of the bull run just like there are many people who waited to buy because they expected the price to go lower and lower and then they lost the occasion.

But does everyone have the knowledge when BTC will rise or fall? Since this matter is not known to everyone, I think Bitcoin holding is good for everyone. If an investor does DCA from 2020 then he would not lose much. There are many investors who buy bitcoins to hold and then sell them again for whatever reason. But everyone who did Bitcoin DCA is profiting today. Also, I think those who do DCA benefit more than a trader because they get the opportunity to buy from the deepest dips. From 20K now their bitcoin 70K, his profit has increased almost to a great extent. Above all I think that not everyone can profit from the volatility of Bitcoin it requires the right knowledge and experience but a holder without that knowledge and experience can make a good fortune by holding Bitcoin.

Well, we can't control them if they don't do long-term holding, and it is part of the bitcoin cycle. Someone needs to do short-term holdings in order for the bitcoin price to move, and the proof of that is that bitcoin is volatile, because every transaction in the bitcoin market can affect the price movement. But yeah, because of the many bitcoin holders that do long-term trading, the bitcoin price stays at the top and is stable. Also, that is that bitcoin is volatile, because every transaction in the bitcoin market can affect the price movement. But yeah, because of the many bitcoin holders that do long-term trading, the bitcoin price stays at the top and is stable. Also, it's true that long-term holding is much more efficient so that a holder can maximise the potential profit. And also holders should not exit early in the market just because theu caught in any FOMO.

The true is that not all investors are true long term holders, some hold for just the four year circle and hope to sell off while another set sell at every given interval that's warrants profits to their holdings well this set of person are classed as short term trader's and we now have the true investors that actually hodl Bitcoin for a really long time  and this category or type of investors are even rare because I believe to achieve this one must be disciplined and have self control to not be tempted to sell off when the Bitcoin price is high. I believe some Bitcoin HODLers are still HODLing their coins even from the early days till date and those types of investors are the true holders.

You shouldn't say it's better; one of the hardest thing to do is creating a follow-up or understanding market's decision to know exactly when it's most condusive to buy during the DIP.. not everyone has that spare time to analyze the trend. Eitherways, to begin trading, you'd need the skill, time and most importantly - a thick-skin to accept whatever loses you encounter.

That doesn't make trading more lucrative either. As harmless as it looks to be greedy, you could end up like a pulp for it.
Bottomline is - Do whatever profits you the most.

When it comes to investment in bitcoins, people have different perspectives and goals, and because of this, they make different decisions which makes the crypto-market flow very well every year that's why we need each of them to do what they want with their investment because they can't be doing long term holding together at once because it won't really make sense when there is no flow of bitcoins you see, that's why the 10,000 BTC and Pizza thing has happened because of the flow needed and we need to protect that until now or else we won't see any further adaptations and continues popularity if everyone became a holder of bitcoins not selling it at all.

What do you mean by a period of BTC price appreciation, is that mean a bearish trend, well we call it the accumulation phase which comes after the bull season, in the bearish cycle. That's the best time to invest your funds in BTC and do DCA if you don't want to do a lump sum. And then wait for the next ATH which comes near the next halving. This time comes before the halving. Well the point is, holding definitely have more potential and rewards in compared to the general investors who sells and buys more often.

I used to trade but did not get much profit, but when I started to hold funds for longer period of time, I started to see positive results, I first started in future trading, later left it as it is not for newbies, now when I do trading in spot, future looks like a sitting duck which I can take easily but when we are in trade our emotions are the main thing urging us to react, that's the main thing we should have control on. Even if market is going up or down, holders won't react to them because they have set a time in there mind for how long they will hold, and that's why they don't even see the market's behaviour, sometime they don't even know market was down or up.

the thing is that during a bullish season Bitcoin always have advantages for people or who investing it that is why you receive any investors who invest in Bitcoin that will be probably like  enters bitcoin to the bullish season anyone who is into cryptocurrency always like to hold their bitcoin until the price of the Bitcoin in the market increases so the advantages they get during the time Bitcoin or cryptocurrency increases is that the market will it be appreciated and whatever thing they invested will it be appreciated more than double so that is why it is good for bitcoin to increase during when we hold

What do you mean, being a trader is better than an investor because traders can make a profit as long as they trade consistently? If that is true, for me the profits obtained by investors are greater, of course long-term investors who use the DCA method as their strategy.

Being a trader is better than an investor because not everyone can do it? It's true if you look at it from that way of thinking. If seen from another perspective, everyone wants to play it safe with a smaller level of risk so they don't want to trade in Bitcoin. I choose to be an investor rather than a trader.

Let me quickly point out some things that makes your position on this matter more of theoretical than reality. First of all, when is the right time to buy and sell? Can you know it in real time or just in hindsight? The chances of buying at the bottom and selling at the peak is extremely low. If you can shift your analysis back to 2016/2017 and use a case of someone who have been accumulating through the DCA without selling and someone who have been buying in bear season and selling in the following bull season, you will easily see that the long term investor will be extremely rich by now whereas the person buying and selling would have even invested most of his proceeds in other businesses such as real estate, reason being that he will not want to keep the money in the bank or stablecoins where it will be yielding no profits.

Both the traders and investors are investors because they put their money in expectations for some rewards. The only difference between both, if that is actually what you are inferring, is that those called traders are short term investors who buy and sell within a very short period of tile while the investors are long term traders who hold their Bitcoin for a very long period of time before they consider selling. Whichever case, there is buying and selling which make both traders as well as investors.

In my opinion, if you have made significantly enough profit then you can already sell and take out your money. What would be the best is to take profit and then buy again during a correction or a dip. Time is always and should be considered when doing this strategy. You need to find the perfect times otherwise not only are you wasting your money but also your opportunities.

Well, I could say it’s a wise option but I guess holding as well most especially if you start buying and holding at its dips, will definitely turn into a massive profit, not just 2x-3x but somehow it could reach more than that especially if bitcoin price surprises us with a new all time high. Although buying at its dips and selling at the bull run will always promise highly significant profits, but more than that, holding your coins and leaving it in your wallet for like 10 years, I think it will enable you to reap highly exceptional profits in the long run. Bitcoin price is unpredictable, so it’s hard to determine its right time to buy and sell at a short term.

It is not everyone who is in the Bitcoin space that has the patience to hold for a long time. Some of them are short-term traders who monitor that market to make profits immediately after the market becomes slightly favorable. But I also agree that some newbies are just so impatient and this might be attributed to a lack of experience. As they spend more time in the ecosystem, they will understand that there is no need to make hasty decisions.

The question now is how will you know the right time to buy or sell to make maximum profit like you illustrated? Bitcoin trading is risky and unpredictable which could lead to unexpected losses. It is easier to say that traders make more money than hodlers but the this is not always the case. Bitcoin hodlers make money in a less stressful and risky conditions.

Unless you're a very lucky person and have a good awareness of the market, it isn't always easy to buy at the right time and also sell at the right time. The idea of buying and selling Bitcoin (trading) and redoing it for profit is mostly achievable on paper and not a reality which makes it an impossible task to achieve by an average user. I know some people do achieve this but that's why I said unless they're very lucky it can't always be achievable but when you're hodling, everybody that takes this investment path gets the same results. During the bullish market, the advantage there is the price of Bitcoin will always increase so you don't necessary have to time the market right but just buy some Bitcoin and hodl them safely.


Some ignorant investors don't care if the market is bullish or not, they'll always sell out of fear that the bull market mightn't last long. If the market is having a correction, you'll find many investors selling and this make them to not be part of the future beneficiary of Bitcoin gains. Investment firms are filled with smart investors and they know the best time to accumulate Bitcoin is during its downtime and that's why you'll always find them accumulating when the market is down but we don't follow their footsteps instead we think we're smarter and always chasing after the market when it's increasing and if we're to profit we can't compare ours with those that bought when Bitcoin was having a downtime.
