not at all reduced in my confidence. I'm increasingly interested in investing in crypto after the emergence of the bustling IEO... IEO seems to bring a breath of fresh air and make my sleep comfortable because I have more confidence in projects that hold sales at IEO, especially in large exchanges and have good ratings.

If you lose confidence as an investor, it’s too complicated for you to make progress since trust is the basis of everything, The best thing is to take a break to think about your strategies and what you need to be in the future to get your winnings back on the market.

I had mix experience as an investor. At times had some rough patch like others when the bear markets starts and you end up losing a lot unless you hold back and the value of the coins which you hold rises during good time. At times holding did helped as market recovered from the low and investing during such times actually helped me to make some gain and make out the average of the trade price.

The op is from December and from that point of time a lot of things have changed.
The prices are also affecting at a greater pace,  which is no doubt giving the investors  a lot of pressure.
But at this point of time i don't lose confidence to be honest.
I choose the stable coins. They help me to remain safe.

The sudden rise (from the very beginning of 2018) to fall (end of 2018 and still continuing), did you have the courage to hodl your coins and have your confidence intact just as before? Or did the extreme hustle of the bearish markets ended everything for you and even compelled you in such a way that you're now no more going to put anything in cryptocurrencies? Do you think this is an opportunity itself or is this going to end up hard in grave like most of the best ICO projects of whose tokens got dumped down to even 1/20th their ATH?

P.S.: This is just a poll, so don't take it as a measurement to decide whether to remain and/or invest in crypto or not.

I would be lying if I said that my confidence hasn't taken a big kick in the teeth but it is still intact. I have held throughout this bear market and will continue to do so because I do believe in crypto and that the market overall will recover. A lot of alt-coins will never return to past ATHs but that's in my opinion for the best.

That's right, every trader may lose confidence whenever the market price will go down it's normal I guess and everyone has been waiting for the bull run to happen they said it was last year then it didn't happen, and then another speculation is this year it will definitely happen but despite all these speculations we really can't be sure that it will really happen, in fact when we started June this year there was a drop to $7100 but good thing it went back to $8600 today, I just hope it will continue to rise in the coming days and hopefully the bull run we all been waiting for will really happen.

sometimes yes, but I still see how other investors are never slack at all and remain optimistic, this is where communication with fellow investor communities is needed.

If we share experiences with one another, then it can at a minimum prevent entry into investment fraud, or ICO with weak potential. With varied analysis and alibi, it is certainly useful to strengthen decisions.

Bitcoin is GOD
if I am not alone because I believe that the market will rise even though I have to wait patiently for the market to return, only investors who do not want to get profits and success lose confidence when the market falls
Yeah if you are not losing patience you will get profit because our confidence gives us motivation to keep investing and keep holding, price rises and falls this is very normal thing but taking advantage of it is all your decision don’t give up just keep holding I am sure very soon you will make money and will gather more confidence to be a good investor.
Right now we are seeing a massive movement of bitcoin we do not know if this is the bull market that people have been waiting for but that should tell you something that being willing to wait for the right moment to invest is critical if you want to make money in this market, think about it even if this is not a bull run the amount of money that you could have made if you just enter in the market at the right time and get out before it crashes is incredible which show us how powerful it can be to have the right knowledge and apply it in the right way.

So I hope this is a lesson for all of those that are very negative about the market and think there is no way to make money in it unless it begins to skyrocket for months.

Once you understand it's normal, you wouldn't panic anyway.
Losing your confidence is tantamount to giving up crypto investing, at the start we are aggressive because we are seeing a good price and now we loss our confidence, it should not be that way, we have to put in mind that crypto is still in early stage and development comes in the later stage.

That will help us to hold and be calm.

Every investor feels a decrease of self-confidence because of the bearish market. Everything will go back when the market become green for a long period of time. Loosing the confidence being an investor doesn't mean of loosing of funds too. My confidence didn't fade out but it decreases like I can't even do trading now.

Even though the market is bearish trend for many months. I still have strong belief that this period will be over soon and bitcoin bull market will commence soon. Although i saw many of my friends quit the bitcoin and crypto currencies, however i am not one of them.
I am of the point of view that bitcoin is still in its early stages and we may see much more growth , more than the previous one.

Yes I lose all my confidence and money. When I was new to cryptocurrency I started to mine cryptos but in the past few years I tried to focus on investing to cryptocurrency and new projects but most of them ended up as a failure but I didn't lose hope at that time and I tried to invest to some known crypto at that time and after some time it keeps crashing and crashing and most people said that "HODL is the key" and as a new investor I followed their advice but then I realized that HODL is not always the key sometimes we really need to sell it to avoid further losses.

Some time market situation may be unpredictable which we cannot able to control our emotions which makes us sell them in the market. That's why every trader will suggest us to hold the coins in the market as long as possible until we make some decent profit. Due to market fluctuation makes us think in a negative way.

Yup.
I started investing in 2018. Wasn't the best experience.
I accepted the loss.. sold all my coins and used the money to start trading.
Much more my thing.

When I have more capital I will return to investing in a small way.
well, if you keep up with this development since 2014, and take advantage in 2017 and 2018, I don't think that makes us disappointed. but, when you just started in 2018, well you could be disappointed, because at that time, the price became more down.

simply getting the job done
Of course, I did not think that the bear market would be so long, but I expected it to be. Cryptocurrencies grew too fast in 2017 - early 2018. The bubble was supposed to burst, and it burst. For me the most important thing is that the fundamental value of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has not changed at all. Projects continue to grow, the demand for blockchain specialists is growing, companies are working to integrate the blockchain with the real economy. All this means that the blockchain is not dead, but simply is in a temporary correction. Therefore, I am ready to wait for 3-5 years.

Cryptocurrency will rise again in the future guys. If you'll look at the history of bitcoin, since its beginning, it falls and it rises again. And whenever there is a big dump, there is a big pump. Well as you can see sudden rise in 2018, there's  big dump. What's next? Look at the history. That's how bitcoin works. And the rise can be never predicted but we can see it coming soon.
That's going to happen, if we look at the trend we will expect that it will recover again.
The good news is that the trend says that every time BTC dip, the next price movement will be going uptrend hard, and that's possibly gonna
bring a new bull run to the market.

True, as a trader if we lose our confidence it doesn't mean we are losing our funds, But i heard most of the traders stories, when they have loss in trading, time to time they lose their confidence.
It is human nature, when we get loss, in that moment we feel in our mind that it is our mistake and that's why we have lost. So in this time, if we keep our mind and think that it is not our fault and just to start trade then may be we can't lose our confidence.
