Everyone can't loose money, when the market is down, we have other techniques add into trading just like the Margin Trading many traders many use of this aspects to make money while the Market is crashing.
But in most cases, dropping of price will cause losses to some traders. I know margin trading aren't used for small traders, that is why they'll fall into losing when prices unexpectedly drop off. Losses is normal in trading and no strategies that could help us for not caught into this, only we need to be prepared and never think of negative cause prices will rise up again soon.
I think we have to be patient with the market, calm when prices go up or prices go down are very necessary. indeed when prices drop some people suffer losses, but some others enjoy profits

In general - yes, some people make profit by shorting BTC, staking and masternodes rewards
All time trader can make profit but not by all trader on bullish market can make profit and on the same trader may make profit on bearish market. It depends on the coin you are taking.
Traders who are good in trading, would already unload their coins when they see a big dump is coming, and then they will accumulate when price was oversold. There is no dump in the market that is consistent, it recovers and every pump and dump is just an opportunity for traders to make money.
Buying at dip and selling at pick is a good strategy, it will never make you complain if the market is volatile as you can take advantage on it.
I am not against this point and on the contrary I am on the same point of you the advance trader who is an expert always will unload which it reaches to its highest price for that time and may buy again when it price goes down for that time.
That's what we called smart investing, knowing when to let your assets go when big dumped is approaching ahead and accumulate once again when price already reached the bottom,you can buy it back and wait for the cycle, time will come and the value will rises up again, if you can work with that, then there's no bearish nor bullish as every time is an opportunities for you to earned.

Not everyone  some they might gain from satoshi but lost in USD value , that's why some traders want to cut their losses when it's triggered the closing point.
Although they are lost in USDT, they could recover their losses and that only happen if they don't sell the coins in the downtime and only hold the coin until the price can increase.
But many of us don't see a hope for the coin and only make a short decision to sell the coin while the price is not going down for more.
That will be a mistake for them because if they realize that the coin will increase after the fall, they will not sell the coin and only waiting the time to make a profit again, but it will only for the potential coin only.
The rest coin will stay at the market and only waiting for the best time to follow the increase.

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.

When the market goes down, everyone will lose money and that is not a problem because you can still hold it back when the market goes down.
and only fools who sell it when prices go down, go down or go up in a market situation have become commonplace.
when the market goes down it is an opportunity to buy it then hold to wait for prices to rise again.

Not all loses the money if you are a margin trader. Not all is a normal trader or an altcoin trader here. Some here knows how to swing trades or even margin trades. Bull or bear market, you can take is us an opportunity and will still become profitable. Just collect what you need to learn and you'll doing well in trading.
Perhaps bull or the bear markets is the perfect time to trade with the crypto coins as it gives us much chances to make profits at smaller gaps and buy and sell at instant dips and peaks.
Those who just invest their money and leave it untouched may have loss in the bear markets but those who have the skill to buy and sell at small intervals in the bear markets will always cover their losses there and would wait for the bull markets to make them have enough profits.
It's differ from whatever style you practice inside this Market, you'll have a good opportunities if you have good knowledge and you can perform what style you think that will be profitable for your assets, you just need to follow your own analysis and trust your own judgement in order to make a good stay.

I don't think that every people loses their money. because expert traders most of time earn their profit. but when market goes down people like us who have no such a good idea about trading most of time we lose. for us trading is just a earning source but for them it's much more that.
In down market the price movement exists too that become the reason traders also make profit here but it seems tough as compared slightly high prices. In the down market of Bitcoin the price when turned from 5800 US dollars to 6677 US dollars traders are activated by such price increase. Now they are in profit and want to hold it for next price rocketing boosts so as you make some more money.

If you have not yet sold your coins, you have not yet lost, there is always a chance that the market will turn in your direction, but if you are desperate and sold the coin at a reduced price, then everything, you have a loss.
My friends also always told me about that. That is why i like trading more than gambling. Even sometime i play gambling games, trading make it different because i am not lose my assets if i am not cut loss it yet.
if you don't sell it faster then you will suffer greater losses? which one do you choose? in my opinion not all coins you buy can experience recover when the trend changes and prices rise. so you have to be really aware, have to hold or sell. because that will determine the amount of loss that you will suffer
For me only panic sellers are getting lose but those who are holding with patience will never suffer lose, when in market new investors get in it makes the price higher because they buy and hold so market recover faster this way, so if the market is down we will have to keep patience and never think about selling it.
Actually what i compared about gambling and trading is in trading we still have chance to minimize our losses. At least it is not 100% loss like in gambling. That  is why i talk to prefer trading than do gambling even i play it too.
For me both are good if we are good at gambling we can gamble and if we are good at trading we should trade, but in case of low price in market I think it is good to hold only specially if you are a trader, it is good to continue trading when market again recovers but if the price is down and things are not in our favor like price and everything then don’t trade and wait for right time, there will be 100 profit but no lose.

Right, i do both of it. Even not really good, i still learn how to trade well and still learn how to pick right coin to buy. But price of bitcoin now really make any change to traders because they will back to trade again for sure.
Of course it is very important to have the idea about good coin and to know which is the best way to trade with your coin profitably I know there are so many way to trade but try to learn it well and never give up on learning as the more you will learn the more you will have idea about it, i can see your future will be bright if you never stop learning and trading.

not really, when the market goes down then some of them will hold coins that have been bought at high prices for long term investment and then they are confident to buy more to get a quick profit when there is bearish, because after all the market will recover this is only a cycle which has happened repeatedly

Long term holders are the only ones who survive the bear market. Many people do not have power to hold for long term and others just get panic to see the price crash and beginning to think it will be the end, so they panic sell and lose.  Think of those who had not sell bitcoins when it dump from 6000$ to 3000$ and now it is back to 7000$ +. This is the power of holding in cryptocurrency.

Losses money when the market is down, I think it was just a normal things happen. Also not everybody(traders) here are losing their coins, because there are some long term holders and short term holders always remember that. And you can loss coins if you will become neglectful
whether the market is down or not.

Not everyone losses their money when the market is down dude. Why? it is because that there a short term and long term holders right?
The only trader who loss their coins/money is the one who didn't control their emotion, I guess. This was commonly happened in the actual trade.
