I've often heard that to know that you are a successful trader you have to pull profitable trades in a bear market, not just a bull market.

I've been successful during our bear market this year, by using the Depth Chart, or Micro-analysis of the order book. I've set a tight stop-loss at 1% risk, with 1-3% profit exit per trade. I use the principles of compound-interest to grow my btc stack with trades.

What are your bear market strategies?

And if you are new and lurking and looking to learn about daytrading and have no idea where to start or how, swing on by our discord, everyone is really helpful, and it's free with no obligation for anything. We can help set up that trading plan for you, or even if you don't understand terminology or whatever about trading...we can help. Swing by and say hi, stay awhile and listen, and learn something!

I do believe that many of us may not like to share our trading views or strategies here as it will be like a miner exposed were he find gold! I just like the way you minimize risk and that is the deepest secrets you need to know and make money from the market. The bearish and the bullish trend give us equal opportunity to make profits and loses. If you desire to trade successfully you have to know how to make money from every conditions of the market.

My strategy now is to invest in new altcoins or invest in potential ICO projects. Because this is a good time to have the small altcoins pumped easily. You can see the daily market has more than 10 powerful pumping altcoins but most of them are outside the top 300. This is a new way of making my money.

Buy, buy , buy when it is bear market and sell, sell, sell if it is bull market. Because it is really hard being successful while its bear market, once in a blue moon.

Do you think in all conditions when the market is weakening is the right time to buy? I don't think so, because every coin has its own reason why their exchange rate decreases, you cannot generalize that all coins when prices are weak are the right time to buy. many coins are weakened and cannot recover, you should be selective in choosing coins and not forever Declining price is the right time to buy

Other way to earn profit on the bearish trend is by shorting the price in margin trading, there are 2 different trading product that offer profit from shorting the price, that is CFDs and futures trading platform. Margin trading is more risky than spot trading, so its better to trade in this platform only in bear market.

Doing margin will be dangerous for the traders because they will need a high-skills in analyze besides that, they will need accurate analysis so they can know where the price wants to moves. But the profit will bigger and of course to get a bigger profit, and we need to use a big balance because this is what I see in the past in the poloniex on the margin trading section. We have our strategy, and we cannot say that our strategies are the best than the other because we don't know how much profit that every trader can get with their strategies. It is better to stick with our strategy and keep trying to make a profit even for small profit.

I have the same thinking with you ,dude. Personally, there is no fixed strategy that can help us pass through bear market. In fact, each person took part in the market with their own different capital, and it depends on some major factors such as knowledge, experience, skills and the like in order that they can manage better in bear trends. When we have enough effort to do own strategy with high efficiency, it would be a good way to solve your problem instead use strategy of other people.

In a bull market one can actually trade btc to alts and vice versa but once it is the bears, the market momentum and strategy should be btc to fiat and alts to fiat, fiat may be usdt, Tusd and others, that way one can still protect the value of the coins as market drops

But it still difficult to trade because we need to detect which coins to buy and sell, we need to analyze in the hard situations. But I am sure that we can do this especially if we can make a good analysis or at least, we can analyze the coin before we decide. It's fine if somehow, we only make a little profit but if we can do this over and over, then it means we can collect a big profit.

Buy today. Assuming it is bull market; the price will move upwards. Then you need to sell at some higher rates. The difference you earn. e.g. bought on 1st of the month @10$ per coin. and the price on 15th is 12$. So you sell and earn 2$.
Sell in the morning. Assuming it is bear market the price will fall in the evening or few days later. Then buy will lesser cost. The difference is your gain. e.g. you sold your coins e.g. you sold on 1st of the month @4$ per coin and it being bear phase the price falls to 3$. And you then purchase to keep stock with you. that means the coin you sold at 4 now you buy @3$; you gain 1$.

For trading both bull and bear are not good and for market trading i think crypto price are not stable so predicting the right value of crypto is very difficult for us and now the market is bear the demand is not rising trading is very low and people are waiting for the market to become bull so they will easily trade their coins for good price.

Buying at the bear rund and selling at the bull run is the best strategy to make more profits but it is impossible to find the bull and bear run until it happens so trading strategies need to be learned through our experience only.

Experience is teaching everything in crypto trading. But buy low and sell high is a common strategies of trading platform so I recommend to monitor the top 100 altcoins then only we will find the best one because no one is getting easily so we must take effort in trading surely we will get profit and stop the losses in anytime. Number of investors are ready to invest in crypto the only problem is how to pick the best one so small scale trading is the good choice for all the time.

Risky for those who has no proper experience on trading mate, but for those who had wiser visions for his/her ability to grab bearish opportunity it's a brilliant strategies to do. Upon checking the prices on the market we tend to be amaze for those cheaper coin price despite of how it behaves in the last few months ago. The predictions was a failure but still people demanded to buy cryptocurrency.

Usually, any strategy someone tends to have eventually is based on the knowledge they have. You cannot naturally thrive in anything without even knowing how to make very good decisions. That is what is lacking for a lot of traders who want to trade and make profit but they are too lazy and unready to learn. In my experience one single strategy will be capable enough to handle both bull and bear market, there will be no need of 2 strategies for these two types of markets.

it all balls down on each individual's level of knowledge and experience when it comes to trading both bull or bear market as the case may be.

Most of the time, how you approach a market depends on the strategy you have and usually, even if those strategies may be the same across board, there are some principles you will have to apply most especially when it comes to taking profit and setting stop losses when it comes to either a bear or a bull market.

Both in bullish and bearish we have the same strategies we have learned which are the rules of trading so if you know these rules then you will survive in any market conditions either bull or bear. You will have maximum profit only if you buy on low price that will result in saving as well as you will have greater benefit of it in bull market after selling coins on high price.

my strategy is almost the same, getting 1-5% per day is enough in the bear market, but for stop loss I stop at 0.5%
sometimes if lucky if the market becomes bull, it can get 5-20%

Yes usually a good trader able to make profit even when the market condition is not too good, and the percentage of making profit in any market is usually high, trade in bear market is not suitable for beginners, and day trade is also not recommended in bear market, I usually used depth chart, macd and moving average indicators, when the result is not good I don't trade at all

IMO this kind of profit is extremely insignificant and thus not worth spending time on. And for the trading fees to be less that this 'profit' one needs a really big amount of money, while having that kind of money probably means that this person doesn't actually need to earn it. Anyway, it's nice that people manage to trade even these days, but I think that bearish market is perfect for long-term investments. Buy low and wait for better times. They are probably worth it and there's no need to be constantly involved, as is the case with trading. Trading is a hard thing to do, while investing can end up very successful even without significant experience.

I suppose people will go back their money in bitcoin and the price will continue as soon as however it's going to take a horrible time, it isn't always advantageous. Many buyers have misplaced their cash because of a mistake in bitcoin due to the fact now they may be afraid to make investments their cash once more. that is due to the fact the rate is not rising. i am hoping this recession will near quickly.

My strategy is if have prediction bull matket of crypto will coming, i will put the money for crypto trading and after the price of all crypto overbought, and then i will withdraw it and move to the stocks market. In bearish crypto market is very hard to earn profit so its better i quit from the market.

I agree to your plan that you will have to wait if the market will starts to pump because of bull run but at this rate of bearish market does it really change the fact even if you switch to stock market? Holding is the only way to get your profit back but if you are a day trader then it must be very a difficult task for your daily life routine.

That's where a lot people go wrong, especially when it comes to altcoins. It's impossible to say whether or not the price of an altcoin is low, regardless of how much it has gone down prior to that.

People kept saying that Bitcoin at $15,000 was low and for that reason a solid dip to buy. Then it was $10,000 where people thought that it wouldn't fall below that psychologically important barrier, but it did.

With crypto you should be ready to see prices tank up to 90% from their highs, especially when it comes to altcoins. People thinking that prices are low because they went down with 50% already will be burned hard.

50% down will turn into 70% down and soon after 90% down.

Yes.Grab the chance in buying potential coins while the price market is cheap and hold them after.You can still make good profits in this bear market by not selling them at a negative price.Always learn to be more patient in the bear market.

I agree with you. A good trader must earn profit from both of bull and bear market. And I think that you must apply 1% or 2% to earn a bit profit. Dont be greedy. That's enough

I also agree.I still follow the most basic strategy of buy low and sell high.I know i will not lose during bear market if i won't get into panic selling.So i prefer to keep on holding until bull market starts,and sell them to make huge profits for sure.
