It is really hard to avoid panicking especially if we have a certain coin in our portfolio then its prices decline so bad. Controlling our emotions is really hard, I also having a hard time for me to set aside my emotions when I do trading but for me I can do it because I know do training in order for me to not panic anymore.

VERY GOOD ADVICE !!!!

You should trade BitCoin based on facts, not emotions.   The biggest problem here is that people are so in love with the IDEA of BitCoin, that they will likely HODL onto their BitCoins when the financial indicators say it is time to sell  Shocked Shocked Shocked

Hard Facts

It is usual for people to react according to emotions - that's what we got them for - that's a hard fact.
If someone is fascinated by something and loves it, just like Bitcoin lovers, why would they sell it if they believe that cryptocurrencies are the future?!
I'm afraid your hard facts have nothing to do with reality and the freedom of choice for every human.

When it comes to the fact that selling during panic is not a good decision, it is obvious and if we do not have investment priorities set (before we invest), we should not invest on high risk market.

Emotion is really a hard thing to be controlled specially when you are seeing on whats around you.Everything is in panic,right?
Its impossible for you not to make any reactions or doesnt think of for you to sell due to plummeting market plus you do need to have
money into these days so it isnt surprising that panic sell do happen from time to time and for those people who do took or bought
the dip will really benefit but i doubt that it would be a few of them.

that is the reality. it's just that selling in a panic is the worst decision. because when the price dumps hard, there will be price reflections that might fix a little of your asset number. however, I support the question of not selling in a panic. most people who sell in a panic will regret it when prices recover.

There's no way Bitmex liquidations could ever bring BTC to $0, or anywhere close to it:


At the moment just before they went down, there was almost no bids in the orderbooks all the way down to $0. And they had almost $1000 million of long liquidations to clear. Those $10M ask walls kept appearing over and over again and nobody wanted to take them. If it wasn't for the downtime, it eventually would of went to $0 on Bitmex perps and their futures.

Would it go to $0 on other exchanges? No idea. It depends what rules the market makers and arbitragers would play by, I am assuming most were out of the market by then and others just simply turned off their algos due to hectic trading action. So maybe it wouldnt go to $0 on those exchanges but the spread would be like $2000-$3000 difference between the 2.

It truly was a very scary moment in trading history, basically what happened when the Swiss Franc removed that EURCHF hedge about 7 years ago.

Reading posts about the pandemic, I think people would really be forced to sell their Bitcoins.
 

IGNORANT, SIMPLISTIC, thinking   Tongue Tongue Tongue Tongue

Some people are selling because they need the money now. 
Some people are selling because they are panicked.
Some people are selling because they are rational investors, making a rational choice to get out at these prices, as they think prices will go lower in the future. 

There are a LOT of reasons people sell, trying to excuse it all for one reason is just dumb.

You are the one being ignorant here.

That is the reason I added those words "Reading posts about the pandemic", right there since I am basically focussing on those people that are affected by the pandemic. Isn't those people that can't even understand other people perspective are the ignorant and dumb ones? Coming from you?

I could say that I wasn't in panic selling but I have to sell it now no matter how its cost because I need it.
The market is in trouble and we are affected by this. Holding meant nothing for some of us and most probably they sell it already when the price drop at $4k. It is quite to say that people are now looking for a way to save their lives rather than dying of holding their coins. At these hard times, you can't either think about holding cause it won't save you especially when you have no salary expected to arrive instead, selling it could help.

needs are always an excuse. because it's a pandemic or not, I think people will still sell their assets when they need them. it's just that, the current conditions make people's needs increase, and almost all investors sell their assets to meet their needs. Well, this is not panic, it's just the urge to make people sell their assets. if this is caused by panic, I think the price of bitcoin can decrease to $ 3000. but, the reality is not.
That is why we can't blame people to sell their coins because they are in big trouble. Even me, I have to sell some just to have reserved when the situation gets worsens. Though we could see that we are plunging up at  $6.8k but it gives no assurance that the momentum will continue. It only gives us confidence if the pandemic is over. But as of this time, we have nothing to sure about what is the incoming...better to be prepared for it.

Yes i agree guys you shouldn't sell your bitcoins just wait till this deadly disease is gone and wait for the market to recover i do believe that price of bitcoin will fuel up As soon as this virus thing is over and then would be the best time to sell DO NOT PANIIC guys just wait be patient.

I think what we do is to adopt patient strategy this period. To hodl now is a good business plan because the market will soon open up. If the virus period is over, we expect pumping price and volatility because investment will start growing.
Then I hope this will gonna do knowing that many people are still selling at this time just to have money.
Though they want to hold but the situation might push them to do this. We are in the crisis either we like it or not, many were still be losing their confidence towards crypto if the situation get worsen.

As far as the elites can still keep us in fear and greed there is no way we would not see big sell off when they have decided to manipulate the financial market for their advantage. Panic sellers will always lose money but people must panic and will panic especially if their life saving is involved.

The " elites " , real money from central banks, countries, and institutional money is NOT, NOT, NOT invested in BitCoin.   They are buying all the Gold they can get...  That should be enough to clue some people in.

We shouldn't sell the coin on the basis of panic because everybody has their own requirement until their desired target is reached. Panic selling makes us lose the value of the coins and it is not good for us, we need to wait for the market recovery. Panic selling will not help you to make money so it is best to avoid this type of selling.

but what if you are starting to Starve?for sure you will Sell all the Bitcoins in your hands right?

that exactly the point,Manipulators are making this panic more active so people will sell and the price will fall to favor their target bagging another money from the poor investors.

Bitmex is the largest exchange and provides most of the liquidity for many of the traders. However BTC in Feb was over $10K and many were assuming it would hit a new ATH since the halving was approaching, hence they opened leverage positions and when it broke the $7500 area there was nothing but long liqudations after long liquidations and pretty much there was a $1 billion of long liquidations and no bidders, hence the exchange went down and as a result it saved BTC from going to $0.

There's no way Bitmex liquidations could ever bring BTC to $0, or anywhere close to it:

For prices to fall on spot exchanges, people need to sell real BTC, on spot exchanges. Long liquidations on Bitmex do not accomplish that, and we know zero withdrawals left Bitmex during the crash because they only process withdrawals during mornings US time.

Nobody knows it was Bitmex-tied algorithms that dumped all that supply. That's just a big unproven assumption. All we know is inflows to spot exchanges increased ~170K BTC more than usual in the days preceding the crash. Massive supply leads to lower price.

A lot of over-leveraged traders got destroyed on Bitmex, I'll agree with that. I am however not convinced Bitmex controls the spot market.

When Bitmex went down, the perpetual swap market was already a few hundred bucks below spot price. If it kept going, it would have just diverged more and more from spot prices. There wasn't that much open interest left on Bitmex after the crash anyway.

From what I can gather and explain, here is what most likely happened that made bitcoin pretty much crash to $3350 or so back in Mid March. The coronavirus was finally taking a toll on the markets, and BTC seems to be correlating with stock indicies. That week there was a huge dump in many global markets and bitcoin followed. Then bitcoin kept going lower and lower most likely because BTC was at a profit for most investors but their stock positions were at a loss, hence they sold to make up for it. It led to more selling and eventually the long liquidations started.

Bitmex is the largest exchange and provides most of the liquidity for many of the traders. However BTC in Feb was over $10K and many were assuming it would hit a new ATH since the halving was approaching, hence they opened leverage positions and when it broke the $7500 area there was nothing but long liqudations after long liquidations and pretty much there was a $1 billion of long liquidations and no bidders, hence the exchange went down and as a result it saved BTC from going to $0.

At the time of the pandemic certainly the need must increase because they do not work and continue to be at home so their investment money is forced to sell assets to finance their daily needs, but I think the panic will not exist because of the seen movement of bitcoin continues to increase so I think bitcoin will continue recovering from seeing crypto market conditions like this so whatever happens in the future bitcoin will be the best choice.

After this corona deadliest disease the governments in most of the countries has announced lockdown and this has caused a stir among people's because they can't go out of home, So people are selling their asset for cheap prices. Guys this will surely impact the price of crypto and the dip will continue if it goes like this, do not panic sell have patience and just wait till the market recovers...
HODLERS will keep their currencies as long as they are not triggered by the economic crisis but today?i guess this is the time that Hodlers need to sell their holdings for a while and may try again to accumulate after this pandemic crisis that bringing Burden to the whole community now only here in crypto but also in stocks and Oil companies.

for the very first time in our history Virus infected the world like this things that never happen before so bear with this and just understand the need of money than cryptos.

If they hit badly by economic crisis happening then best to sell their balance off to save theirselves from the burden brought by the disease but it they have enough money to spend for more longer months then best to save it and don't sell at losy since there still high chances for a pump since we will positively see a price pump since halving still on his way to take effect in future.
actually thats what i said already and completely mentioned all what you said in my post lol.
Trust me there has been numerous warnings shared on this forum requesting people to avoid panic selling but some will just ignore and do it and some of then cannot control emotions when they see the value of crypto falling beyond the limit. We need to learn from the past as panic selling has always been disastrous decision for ourself as well as the community.
and in the end?they are mostly regrets their decisions though in this pandemic everything is tolerable and it is normal to panic when you have no foods on the table to eat and your Grocery stocks are starting to vanish.
