Still it is good time for you, because the price of bitcoin 6000&.  I am buying bitcoin many times such as the price of 18k, 13k, 10k, 8k, 5k but I think it is also a good time for buying and it is also good time for profitable. 
Bitcoin price drops are an opportunity not to be missed because I believe this is the price that will guarantee you a lot of profits and of course you can absolutely choose to be a long-term investment. However, you need to analyze many times to decide because if the market trend is not good, you will face a lot of risks. Personally, I only use 20% of my assets to invest in this period and spend half of my assets to set the buying.
but the problem is how can people manage to Buy currencies now when they are struggling from being under quarantine?
most people now are in withdrawing stages and not accumulating
because they are prioritizing to have foods than cryptos.

we all knew that many Hodlers are small investors and at this point those are the most affected from this pandemic and they have no olther option but to Sell out to convert in Fiat.

Every startegy they are seasonal maybe the startegy that you used this day will not work to another day or coming months.
Better to have more startegy with different startegy so we can choose what is better for us.

Base on what I saw to your startegy it is good and works strategy and possible to for you to earn money because of using that.

In trading there is no real concrete strategy still it depends on the user or the trader how do they trade their money and one of the good things is grabbing every opportunity make more earnings and one of the best time is right now because we can now make a lot of market income with the help of the bitcoin because it is immediately dropped for over 5k dollars and now it is becoming more stable in the range of 6k to 7k dollars and by just doing the basic trading earnings like buying low and sell high you can now make it more profitable right away but still it takes time to make more income because the halving is coming so there is a chance it will take for over a months before you get can your profit.

Hi all  Smiley

Do you think this is a good strategy:

I buy bitcoin by putting a stop limit at the same purchase price to lose nothing

Example: I buy 1 BTC at $ 5200 and simultaneously place a stop limit (loss) at $ 5200, if the price goes up then it's good for me but if it goes down then I would lose nothing

Thank you

This is a very good strategy for business. the worth will go up and a minimum of you'll not be harmed. you'll get an honest take advantage of within the limit Following this strategy the trade-offs are very low.

Good strategy is investing in IlCoin at this early stage. I bet you won't regret it.

A trader with this strategy will always try to secure his funds by safeguarding using the option called Stop loss. It is one of the best strategies that we need to follow in order to eliminate the loose, of course, we might lose small transaction, but we will not lose a huge amount if the price of Bitcoin drops.

Yes, the strategy you mentioned is definitely usable and logical. Generally, although we investors are accustomed to applying stop loss after purchases, we can actually use this feature during purchases. Especially during the busy times of the market, it is possible to operate comfortably with these features without having to wait at the screen. In addition, as I mentioned, it will be possible to obtain instant profit margin by purchasing transactions in cases where buyers are very strong. Although it seems to be useless in some cases, I think the strategy you mentioned is logical and available.

Yes, it is a good time to buy bitcoin as we see now the bitcoin price is under $6,500-$6,000, so you can purchase bitcoin now before the price increase again. But be careful, although it is a good time to buy bitcoin, we don't know if the price will stay at that price or even increase because bitcoin price can also get down anytime. So we need to be careful and don't buy bitcoin at once and use all of the money. We need to split the money to buy bitcoin at various range prices, so we have more chances to sell bitcoin when the price increases.

You will lose a fee for each of your orders, so I think this is not a good form of trading because if you are in a bad situation like the current market, you will constantly cut losses. And your assets will quickly decline. It is best to learn how to view charts and trade scientifically

Of course, without losing fee it is impossible for us to make a profit in this market. Trading will always charge a fee, by placing an order they will not charge any fee until the order is executed. A trader will always place a stop loss in order to control looses.

I don't subscription to that strategy, assuming you were trading on an exchange that doesn't charge trading/withdraw fees than you would had have some advantage that's if you decide to neglect the few bucks you get charged for miners and service fees (used for sending the fiat to the platform where you'll buy the bitcoin).

The best strategy is just to buy, wait and sell when you see profit, in cases where you selling will be at lost, you just switch to hodling your coins and wait for greeners day ahead.

If you put it at the same level as soon as you buy it, you may literally sell as soon as you buy it, which will cause you to never really wait. You should decide to put on something like 10%, losing 10% on bitcoin has never been a big thing, that happens all the time, and you can get in when it bottoms out after that and sell when it goes up.

For example, if you did 10% during the last drop, the price was around 7.5k last I remember, so at 10% loss that is around 6750 to sell, well it moved all the way under 5k but mainly stood around 5.5k levels for a while, if you bought at around 6k and kept it right now, you would basically recover everything and would be back on track with a profit. I know nobody wants to make a loss but when you do it this way you look fine.

Your startegy that you use is good and effective to you and hoping for you to earn more money .

We have different technique that we use but we need to be careful too of what startegy we use because they have it that we don't applicable to us but for the others is effective so better to study your startegy and try it if it's effective if not make another and for that time you need to make a better to earn money for that time.

But they have times that what ever you use startegy it's not effective because of the dumping of the market.

Usually, people using stop loss are at a lower price than the purchase, if it is put at the same price as the purchase, it will be easier to sell and will waste a lot of trading costs. Should consider stop loss to be important.
Setting stop loss will ensure that you are not losing as long as the price starts to increase. Your idea is already good enough and if you keep on doing this, you will really make profits. But i suggest to hold your coins a longer time because there are high chances that you will gain more once you see the market keeps on pumping.

Setting up a stop loss is one of the best options for a trader not to lose higher amounts. Holding will also give a good amount of returns if you manage to choose the coin wisely. You are right, once the market starts recovering we might see the prices of altcoins will recover very quickly and this will ensure the growth of your holdings.

Setting up the stop loss is a good strategy because it can protect someones capital. Before I enter in a trade, I make sure first that I have good stop loss strategy in order to be prepared when the wave turned back to me. I trade with bias but not always that my bias is happening, we should always be prepared and it is by doing stop loss in order to lessen the risks and losses that we may incurred.

That’s quite good you have nothing to lose at all, though you might be missing out on some opportunities if you keep doing that. Since stop-loss will end your trade when it hits the rate you have set, the price might quickly go up and you might feel the urge to buy when it’s already late, unless you will use the same strategy again.

This strategy cannot be used if you’re the type that starts up your trade and leave the computer, it will only be good if you’re going to be there and monitor the trade so you can set it back once it stops.

You are going to pay a fee which will be your loss.
However, if you are trying to utilize stop loss, it's better if you select a range all the time. The range you selected will get you nothing but paying the fees over and over. I would rather use 10% loss or profit if I would be giving a try with stop loss.
The onlt strategy to make profit I have seen is DCA, it would be giving you less profit but the risk of losing is merely existed if you follow DCA properly.

first it is not possible , if this strategy works then everyone would be rich 
I agree this is a good strategy if and only if the price will not move down after setting a range and don't be a silly dude this strategy works but if we do it all at once it becomes useless. Get off from your mind that cryptocurrency is a way to become rich, yes it is possible but in trading? I bet you haven't see the real trading is. Well, personally I don't set a stop loss, I mean I don't have a 3rd party application for that, it only comes to my mind that if I lost than what I expected then it is for me to stop and move on.

Well, if your orders keep getting filled at that price you may find it hard to focus on other important things. I guess that will even cost you more fees(depending on exchange). I think you are too careful not to lose anything Smiley . You could just risk a little and aim for profit by selling at a reasonable "high".

I think this is often an honest strategy because you'll not be harmed in any way albeit the worth rises, you'll not be hurt and fall due to your Bitcoin stop loss within a specified range If the worth goes up you'll benefit if the market goes up and you'll make tons of cash. it is a good strategy for doing business.
I don't think this strategy will succeed because it will not help you much in making a profit and this is just a trading way to secure your assets. Of course, I have tried many and certainly this is the only way for investors who are afraid of risk.

In my opinion, before buying, you should be more confident and carefully analyze that coin before deciding because the crypto market is often very volatile.

Without risks there is no profits,if you are willing to set the stop loss for the price you bought at then you will be paying nothing but you could end up paying trading fee every time.Lets say 1% fee for a trade and the same stopp loss you put for 10 trades then you probably lost 10% of the capital.So it is same as the level you put stop loss for $5000 when you bought cryptos at $5500.This is not really a bad strategy but this is not profitable one.

Yes, were both using that kind of strategy. I do a daily checking of the trading chart to monitor if has any changes on the price and if the times where the coins are in low price, it is a time to buy crypto currencies. Buying crypto currencies at a low price is a basic strategy, but we don't know that the moment we bought is not really the same amount but it go down again so that we have no choice to recover because it's a lose if we do that, the only way is to wait until the price are go up and when the rate is high it is the time that we get.

I think this is good for protecting your balance from loss, but perhaps this stop loss is re-edited and upward so it is best to bear a little loss when setting the stop loss point at -2%, for example, until you exclude the subject of the loss a little.

Do not be confused too much here.
Why don't you try it and let us see if you won't really lose anything.

Of course you will.
You know there is a trading fee right?
Also you cannot just leave it right there. Although you are just losing by fees here how could you win if you will just leave it?
It needs monitoring too if you want profit. This is just a safety pin.

that's a good strategy. I honestly don't think about it. however, if you can make good use of that strategy, you might be able to develop greater profits. it's just, I'm not really sure because I never use bots or simulations like that. I just have a question, how do you know that after the $ 5200 price there will be an increase or decrease? there could be a decline right, and no one buys the bitcoin that you keep on the market.

It's a good strategy, no risk at all. But, the problem there is you should always be online since your stop loss is very close to your buying point.
(...)
That's exactly the point. No risk at all but have a good target.
And also the problem here is the fee in the exchange.

And another come into my mind is;
What if after he bought and the price went down? What will happen? If he/she will put a stop loss on the price where he/she bought then it could be like a market sell and definitely a loss on the trade depends on the price where the sell order triggered.

That's a good practice as a trader and I can say that what you're doing is right. Just one concern, stop limit and stop loss are different from one another. According to investopedia (2019), stop-limit orders are similar to stop-loss orders, but as their name states, there is a limit on the price at which they will execute. Mostly stop-limit are only available in crypto trading platform. I've tried stop loss only from stock trading platform and it's a better option for me to protect your tradea while you don't have the time to watch the market 24/7.

You won't be traded if there is some exchange which can allowed you to do that. There will be a minimum for stop lose at least you will lose $100 if you spend $5200 to trade.

And I just thinking if this kind can be run by all trader then there will not be a trade for suffered lose. Most of them will be profited, because they just need to set stop lose according to their capital.

If you are afraid to lose then this place is not for you, you may need to look for another place. Seem like gold is suitable for you, at least you won't be lose so much when the gold price down.

It's good to use a stop limit equal to the price when we buy coins. But you play too safe in my opinion, take a little risk will be better.
Using a stop limit of 10% below the purchase price is better in my opinion. Because sometimes before the coins will pump, they will
down for correction. And if you use the stop limit strategy equal to the purchase price it is likely to lose the moment of making a profit.

Theoretically speaking you'd think that would be a great strategy but the truth of the matter is that the market volatility makes this 'strategy' completely impractical. I have tried it before thinking it should be fine but this is not trading at all and sometimes within minutes you find that the market dropped below your stop limit and now you're out of the game completely. Some people avoid this issue by going 5% on either side but then even that can be tricky!

If i'm not wrong you are talking abut stop-loss strategy. Well you are right about it. It's created because many people stay offline for long time and if that time coin starting go down then it'll be bad effect on your capital so it's a good strategy for not get loss when you are busy on offline. I use when i think i'm going to offline for long time and it's saved my asset from get loss couple of times though. It's a great strategy for long term trader/holder too.

This is not a good strategy. Because the Bitcoin market is very volatile. So your stoploss is likely to get hit shortly. With this strategy you will be able to profit when prices rise. And for that you have to look at the market all the time. Because your the stoploss may hit and move up the market. So always keep an eye on.

Do you think this is a good strategy:

The strategy for using stop loss is quite adequate, however, you did not take into account the fact that the exchange will charge you for the executed order,
which means that in order to break even you will need to put stop loss above the purchase level if the price shows an increase, if not - then you will be in a small minus.

It will be effective when you create a order at atleast 2-3% down from current price. So that means if you buy at $5200 then make an order at 5000-5100$. Otherwise the order will be filled very soon. Because market always up down around 1-2%  of current price. And you will lose the fees instead of any profit.

Yes, I've been using that strategy when I'm about to sleep and and bought a coin it's a good way to control your lose or to avoid losing at all but you should consider on where you wanted to sell your coin since you might miss the opportunity to sell it at a certain point and it goes back to the limit you've set and so you just have wasted an opportunity to earn a certain amount.
I think the reality will not happen in this scenario because investors often want to make a bigger profit from this market and certainly you will be difficult to apply this strategy.

I used to have the same thought, but when you do, everything is different and you will risk more. In my opinion, investment is often uncertain and a better plan is needed for asset management.

Op, I don't think you can be at all time smarter than the market or the exchange company because at the end you will have to pay fee for placing the order.
If you place buying order at let say $5200 and you place a selling order at $6000 and you went further to set your stop lost order at exactly your  buying order it is unlikely that your stop lost order will be active for a long time because of fluctuation of the market. An once is not active you must have paid fee already. In that case you are still making lost for placing that trade. I will advise that you place your stop lost around $4900 and place your take profit order around $5700 or there about.

It's a good strategy, no risk at all. But, the problem there is you should always be online since your stop loss is very close to your buying point. If the stop-loss is triggered then, you should put a new order again and do the same strategy. It will be a long work when the market is not in your favor, but for me it's a good strategy when you have a long patience.  Smiley

Better adjust your stop limit at $5000 if you enter long position with $5200 or $4900. Or it depends if you have 100x leverage you can put $5100 or $5150 as your stop limit. If you put stop limit with the same price it will hit immediately and will just deficit because of the fee.
 But yeah, just like others here telling that if the market will continue to pump, even you set stop loss at the same price, you will still get profit and it will not trigerred.

I think it will be effective if he is gong to lower his stop limit at least 10$ on his buying price, or even 1$ as long as he's buying price is the dip. It's going to work well if he hit the dip but that is a hard thing to do.

You are right but it is a very good strategy that has lost the stop In the meantime he will not be harmed As the price rises its currency will rise But if it goes down it won't hurt The way that the stop has been closed will be sealed. But it will depend on the market as a whole If the market is good you can earn a lot of profit.

No it won't work.

There are many reasons why it work work. First one is that unless $5300 was the absolute bottom when you entered your trade, most likely you would end up getting stopped out 20 times before it actually either moves up or down. The markets are choppy, they don't go straight up or down.

Second issue is slippage. Your stop is $5300 however if there is a nasty sell order your fill might be $5290 which happens in these choppy markets. Also you need to pay trading fees and there is a spread of $0.50 or $1.00 or so. So if you buy at $5300, unless it was a limit order your trade would fill at $5301 and your stop-loss would need to be at least >$1.

Sorry but if trading was this easy.... everybody would use this method. There is a reason why people use larger stops instead of having a stop loss of $0.

Well, I think that is a good strategy to prevent the big loss, especially if the price goes down deeper. You can use that as much as you want, but you should remember that you still pay the fee, which will become bigger if you trade mostly.

My goal was to wait for the bitcoin to increase then buy for example at $5300 and at the same time place a stop limit at $5300 and to sell at the first red candle.

In the best case I earn a profit and in the worst case I pay the transaction costs.

What do you think ?

Then you should be patient for a while to wait for bitcoin price to go down. We don't know when bitcoin can go down, and what price bitcoin will reach in the bottom because until now, bitcoin is still trying to increase. You can place an order at the lower price, for example, $5,300, and you can set the alarm in $5,200, so when the price reaches that, it will sound, and you can decide to let the order will fill or change in the other lower price.

Do you know of exchange platforms with 0% transaction fees?

I think all exchanges have a fee for every transaction, and the amount will be different. But you can pay a small fee in Binance by using the Binance coin.

You are very lucky today, now the price of Bitcoin is $ 6500, whereas you are buying the price of $ 5200, so now if you sell it already has a profit of $ 1300 enough for you to buy something useful.

The strategy you are doing is right.

Thank YOSHIE

$ 5,200 was an example.

If I buy BTC at $6500 and I immediately place a stop limit of $6500 does it work or is it impossible?

It will work as always if you do not want to lose any from trading. The good thing about the strategy you are making is you will never lost in USD value and there are chances that you will earn if the price increase. The only problem is you need to monitor that always so every time your stop loss filled then you can set another one with a new target value.

You need to always watch your trade since there are times that it always filled the stop loss you set and its so hassle for others.

Not everyone is confident enough when the price of Bitcoin drops and certainly people will be very suspicious when that coin drops to a low . I was psychologically and panicked when the Bitcoin price fell to $6000 but today the price continues to rise again. The current market is very difficult to predict and there will certainly be more volatility in the near future.

I have to say that there are no exchanges that offer free transaction fees. Transactions fees are the only thing that helps them to survive.
You can find exchanges that offer low transaction fees compared to the others but not of free at all.

This thing goes into the competition and they are pushing into the limit to provide good services to their clients, traders, and investors as well.
Don't get fooled in an exchange that offers you free coz that somewhat will scam you and put you an end. Better to rely on a reputable trading platform even it cost a few sats but at least we are safe.

Hi all  Smiley

Do you think this is a good strategy:

I buy bitcoin by putting a stop limit at the same purchase price to lose nothing

Example: I buy 1 BTC at $ 5200 and simultaneously place a stop limit (loss) at $ 5200, if the price goes up then it's good for me but if it goes down then I would lose nothing

Thank you
It possible that you will still be losing at that set amount. It is better to set put it into $5,400 so there is still a gap before stop-loss will activate and make you totally safe. We know how the market moves in just seconds and the activation might take seconds also, and this $200 gap is enough to cover up those changes. But I suggest that you only use this strategy if when you are going to sleep, go outside because you'll get surprised what it happens to your trade.

Yes, it is effective and safe if the market is going up, but what if going down? putting a stop limit at the same price as your entry will just end quickly, market is very volatile right now. You will still lose a small amount of trading fees. What market are you planning to dive in? Spot or Margin/leverage trading? I don't recommend leverage trading for starters.

For this work, you would need to buy into a bull run so that the price is substantially far off from your buy. A lot of price action is major players and bots hunting stop losses. This is the practice of sites like Bitmex. You can watch the buy/sell walls on there hunt stop losses in real-time and their REKT chatbot call out people getting liquidated. Then the price will violently move in the opposite direction.

Theres nothing wrong with that an in fact you are already profiting now since the price had risen up to 6.3k and it would be much if you do sell it out for securing profits
and repeat the whole process.Try to re-enter on cheaper price and then sell it off as long you do see greens or gains.On this way it would really be ideal to accumulate btc
and it is much more a faster process rather or compared if you do just decide to hold for longer duration.No matter what strategy you are doing as long it do benefits you out
then you are doing good.

Are you sure about that?

That's not a good idea for a fluctuating market. You might end paying more if the price sustains on that level.

Stop loss is not design for that. If you want to minimize your loss then you can set a lower limit in a few percentages.

Your stop-loss will active immediately with a few mins.
Yeah, this is possible when it goes high then gets suddenly lower at your buying price that's all you are making today, actually none but if you are lucky enough and the price increase is in rally then it might work.

Should make a different percentage the price you are buying and the percentage you can afford to lose, if you set the price $6500 went the bitcoin price still at $6500 at the same time your stop loss will activity because of the volatility of bitcoin and just wasting your fee-trade. If you want to set up the price with the same price buying them, you should be waiting until the price up with around 5-10%. Example buying bitcoin $6500, wait until the price reaches $6800 to avoid your stop lose active immediately.
Agree, this will do for traders who are going outside for a couple of hours. As for my strategy, I always adjust depends on the movement in a week, starting from day 1 example on monday the price is at $6000 to day 7, sunday, the price is $6200 then for the next week's day 1 my buying price is $6200 and I'll set the stop loss to $6000, I'm not saying that this is fully working but at least for me it is.

Well, it will depend on how much longer you will hold after buying. This strategy I used when I want to sell my token on the exchange at set a higher amount. Indeed, --this is not a bad idea and you are safe about this. But I think there are a few disadvantages that I have seen on this strategy. First, never leave your Bitcoin on the exchange and second, it might you lose from fees. My good advice is, buy Bitcoin and store it in the long term purpose until you will see your profit.

This would be ideal if you are working on a 0% fee exchange because in the long run, if you continue to do that (assuming you the order doesn't go through because technically it would be executed as well because of the volatility), you would lose money. We don't want that, do we?
