You will not loose even when the market fails.
But not every one those who do transaction during the market is down then some time they suffers
If you do with out any policy or expert opinion then you will not lose money.

If everyone panics and sells it when prices are low, of course they will suffer loss. But the facts say otherwise not all traders and investors it's stupid, many of them can think smart so even though the panic exists, they don't necessarily sell crypto.

Yes, right.
When the market conditions are decreasing, there are many people who lose their money.
This happens because when the price of coins is expensive they buy the coin and when the price of the coin goes down they lose their money.
Such is indeed normal because Cryptocurrency is volatile.
There are cases when the market does not even go down and people loose money. This is the case of the personal mistakes and personal errors and one can minimize such losses upon extending his knowledge about the technology he is dealing with.

After this is achieved, you will not loose even when the market fails. You would come up with good strategies that will maximize the worth of your investment irrespective of the market circumstances.

To make the story short, and obviously yes of course, everyone loses money when the market is down, technically the prices are all going down so that would mean that your money is also decreasing, your profits are gone. But it doesn't mean that you will see it as a negative sign, it could an advantage if you are a smart trader, when the market is down, it is the right time for you to buy Altcoins that you could use in Trading(just be picky when you are going to buy) don't buy randomly.

But it is not literally you are losing your money, it is not permanent, it is just for temporary and in time, the market will be green again, your profits would be back or you could have even more.

 I do not think everyone loses money when the market drops. There are many investors holding USDT to wait when the market falls and they will buy into the potential altcoins at the bottom. That is a great strategy and we should follow this strategy.

I don't think it's true maybe they will hold back the assets they have and some already know when prices drop and they can still be safe and not suffer losses when you don't sell assets that you have at low prices.

I think only about 5% of trader possible made profit from current situation of crypto market,  and others 95% is loss loss money,  iam one of the trader that loss alof of money. But this loss can be recover when next bull market coming,  i still hold all my coin untill others bullish come,  and i pretty sure bull market is will be coming soon.

It will be a real loss if you sell it now even you knew that you're losing but as you hold your coins then nothing to be worry, any how the market will recover. Despite all of the uncertainty in the community, we still choose to be positive because we believe on it, even when everything is falling.

We need to choose being positive because this is the only way we can do for now. To avoid stressed just be positive and have patience, go continue hold your coin until the market recovered.
No one losses if we will just keep on holding on as we all know that we will just lose money here in cryptocurrency once we already convert it but if we don't yet convert it, then we still have the chance and opportunity to gain everything that we want, so don't just easily give up, we can do it as time goes by.

as I observed in the market most of the coins are in red case, however, there are few coins still are getting pump or in green in the exchange

platform. Meaning, there are still traders out there are getting profit, maybe for some coins are pumping its value only. Though I admit that

majority of the traders in the market loses their capital in the platform.

The state of a market that has decreased prices can trigger a person to lose money because the value of market prices has decreased in price.
Someone buys coins at a high price and when the market conditions fall in price it will make the price of the coin fall in value.

That's not exactly true, there are ways to make profits in a bearish trend.
Arbitrage trading is a strategy that works in any market.

We can say everyone is losing if we sell our coins today, but if you are still in the way of holding tight, you can prevent it.
We also put into consideration that we never expect such long bearish trend and for the tired of waiting, we might end up of holding and sell our coins even we knew that we are still losing. Diversifying our investment will help us for the fast recovery of our losses and make some gains in a long run.

Not everyone looses their money in this down market. Some people are waiting for this time to happen so they can buy some good alts at lower price. And if the market recover one thing is for sure they get some huge payout. Although it is very risky.

So with how much bitcoin and all the altcoins are down, is it even possible for any trader to make any money?  Example let say this.  You buy btc at a very low price due to these dips.  Now you could either keep btc or buy altcoins with it.  Now the market goes down every single day.  First off, does anyone know if btc or any altcoins ever have a day where the prices drop every single hour?  Or is that impossible?


Anyways, with how much all the coins are dropping, is it even possible for any trader to make money on days or weeks like this?  Im thinking its only possible if they make sure they sell it at the right hour and minute etc in order to profit.  But of course if they are down almost all day, how is it even possible for anyone to make any money?  Sure when the market goes back up in a while, and the price gets higher than they bought it at and now they sell, the profit.  However, the same ppl who hold the coins will profit as well.


Because doesn't it seem like there is no skill involved at all it seems?  Because if the market is down for a long time, what percentage of traders are even making any money when the market is down?  Of course if you got a coin at like 10 cents a long time ago and then it went to 5 dollars... and now because of this.. its now down to say 1 dollar, well you are still up money if you sell it now.  But the same ppl who got this coin probably got it at over 3 dollars and lost a huge percentage of its value.


So is it true almost everyone loses money when the market is down?  And almost everyone makes money when the market is up?  Because if btc goes up, the alts follow.  BTC drops, everything follows.  Its like there is zero skill at all almost.   Such that yes when it goes up, some altcoins might go up higher than others.  Also why do certain very good altcoins drop when btc drop if that project is very good etc?  Yes i know you need btc to get that coin and vice versa but its like its either everyone wins or everyone loses.


So right now market is down a lot especially for those who bought not that long ago.  So where is the skill here?  Its basically when to sell and when to buy right?  However, when market is down like this, who is damn making any money?  Because isn't almost everyone losing money?  The only ppl that i could see that likes this huge dip are those that have usd/usdt ready and picking when to buy.  Of course they could have waited till btc was 8k and thought great i buy now or buy alts and each of these already lost a lot already.


Who is making any money now when the market is down?  The ppl who are selling?  Surely not since the price they sell now is much less than before.  Also just curious but does this apply to stocks and forex trading as well?  I know that well stock market goes up, doesn't almost all the stocks all go up it seems?  The same can be said of forex or am i wrong here?  I only know forex is money trading with different currencies etc.  Because when you look at other things like poker or sportsbetting... someone is winning and someone is losing.  Also to anyone that bets sports or knows about sports, you might hear how all the wise guys are losing money.  Wise guys are sophisticated sharp bettors that are much smarter than your average joe.   That average joe most likely bets very square picks... meaning like obvious public teams etc.  However, the thing is the public does win.  And when they do that, sportsbook would lose money.  But usually they get it back and the average joe loses it back betting very public plays and the sophisticated bettors aka sharps win again.  However, i heard of sharps having really bad seasons etc.



So based on that, doesn't it seem like crypto trading is basically everyone wins or everyone loses?  Because in sportsbetting, yes the house does win and they house could also have a losing streak.  But eventually they win back the average joes money.  But if the average joe gets lucky and goes on a huge run whether betting favorites or underdogs or whatnot, its possible for him to win for a long time or lose for a long time.  Also let say you have a few players who are sharp sportsbettors and a few average joes.  Well if the sharp guys are winning, most likely the average joes are losing.  If the sharp guys are losing, average joes are most likely winning.  I say this because they usually play opposite plays most of the time.  But no matter what, someone has to win.  Whether its the sportsbook or the bettor.  Also in sportsbetting, there is something called live betting where its like trading.  Basically you can bet on either side while the game is going on when odds change always etc.  But when you live bet, if one player bets this team while another player bets another team... remember each of these players are betting against the sportsbook, one player will win... the other loses.  Thus that is where the skill comes in.  So does anyone here feel like the market dictating winning or losing is just stupid?  I mean if market is down, who is making any money?  Its like ppl say when there is a bull market, everyone thinks they are a genius.  Well if its a bull market, the only thing you have to think about is okay i will buy btc but should i exchange it for altcoin or not and which one.



Anyone here have thoughts or opinions on this?  I got excited about cryptocurrency and trading and wanted to do it.  But now when i look at it, its basically look at the market.  There doesn't seem to be any skill in it.  Can anyone here correct me with any of my statements especially if i made any especially in sportsbetting?  Thanks.

There have been a lot of good answers already for your question, so I'll try to keep it short. When market dips, this is where traders start to play out their strategies, not those that seek simple exchange (even they can profit actually). In trading, when opening an order, you can set your own prices as limits. Bitcoin and altcoins all fluctuate and their dip is not a straight-lined either.
You have numerous ups and downs during this time, so you capitalize on them. And trust me, these can be quite large as well, going by 10% even. What makes a good trader is the capability to guess exactly when such jumps occur. You then set out take-profit and stop-loss limits and push "sell" order.
If you guessed it right, through fundamental and technical analysis (more on them here https://www.cryptocointrade.com/education/), you can earn a quick and small profit, platform trade fees included. You make several day trades and voila! You've earned a modest profit, even when the market falls down!

Not only investors who usually book income on upward thrust as they have got bought in low and they know that now the market might be going to accurate and that they promote off and now in low, they buy lower back. it's far quite simple concept of the market that it always goes up and down so whoever is shopping for in low whenever you notice income just e-book it. Even a few investors realize internal info of a few coins so that they simply promote of and buy lower back in low.

I may not necessarily entirely point out sure result in several when us all nonetheless getting even though the other folks are usually shedding at the same time. We realize in which largely individuals who have damage now are usually those who find themselves fresh on earth regarding crypto and several make the most about it getting their particular money inside low-cost.

Basically it's their wrong perceptions that the downtrend of crypto price could lose every trader's money. But for me now the whole scenario about crypto price declination, was an opportunity for us in order to buy at cheaper prices and eventually take much higher profit after all in the future.

Remember the rule "if somebody loses that somebody gains". You may also be a "bear" and make a bet on the further market falling by selling any assets which are available for a short sells. Just be careful because short positions are much more dangerous than long ones. Generally I would not open short positions when market is so low it needed to do it earlier.
