in my opinion high bitcoin prices, seeing a gradual increase in bitcoin value, seems to require a positive impact that will restore confidence.

Entering month of April, we are seeing the gradual increment on bitcoin's value. This leads to me this question, How stable is bitcoin? What are the factors indicating its constant movement aside from the fact that compared from the last years its value was unfathomable in a financial sense but sudden drops oppressing lots of investors. What sort of deem of hope to investors not to become disoriented and eventually selling there btc shares as its value decrease. What do you think guys?

No it is not stable and the prices will always fluctuate. Only invest if you are fine with it. The volatility is also responsible for the huge  profits people made with it.

Just wait for autumn and I believe BTC  will be over 20k again  Wink Now it's just a temporal drop due to whales selling and getting rich at a pace which still cannot be outdone by new people getting into crypto, but it will eventually turn around.  Fake news and fud also plays a role though  Cheesy
Honestly bitcoin will never be stable and have to embrace that fact. It's a digital currency so you must expect that at any moment the price will change. It may go low or high depends upon the situation but we must stick with it. Whether if it's good or bad bitcoin needs our support. Fluctuations of prices cannot be removed from bitcoin.

In my opinion, the price of bitcoin is influenced by different news in the media. And also a circle of people who own the bulk of bitcoins. And who order this news.

It is not. In fact, Bitcoin is the most volatile crypto in the market. So you can turn to other cryptos in the market to invest as putting investments in Bitcoin is not affordable as well as it's volatile nature can lead to a huge loss of money. Always look for alternatives. Visit: New Cryptocurrency | Crypto Exchange

Bitcoin is not in anyway a stable currency or asset for that matter. This is because there was never a price tag placed on bitcoin when it was created which means at any given time the value of bitcoin is fluctuating and would never be in a single position. Bitcoin is a volatile asset and prices changed regularly and this is how investors make money from it due to the fluctuating prices.

Nothing in crypto market is stable since everything is highly dependent on the investors' end. So expect that sometimes prices can fall badly just like this first quarter of 2018. On the other, a good comeback will certainly happen. Just ride with the flow.

bitcoin is a long-term investment, if you want to invest bitcoin it's time to buy now and save up to 2-3 years.

I believe in April is the starting point Bitcoin prices will go back up slowly and so is the Ethereum which is starting to green today.
there is still time to buy right now.

someone who needs "hope" to hold on to, or invest in bitcoin shouldn't even be holding or investing in bitcoin.
I agree with the other parts of your post, but not here.

"Hope" could be seen as a special kind of "confidence" in the "value proposal" of Bitcoin. I consider this kind of confidence to be essential for an asset that wants to be a currency.

At some moment in time, we will need to develop some kind of value theory for Bitcoin. That will "stabilize" the price in the sense that it becomes more predictable. I have hope that with the advent of Lightning and other methods that make Bitcoin more usable for real-world payments, we will have an easier job to develop such a value theory because "trading it for goods" connects Bitcoin to the "real economy".

To the OP: If you are interested in the evolution of Bitcoin's stability, you should look at the Bitvol Index. In short: Bitcoin's stability was gradually improving until the end of 2016, but then it increased again with the last crazy bubble. In 2018 we're seeing another decrease.

I guess that in periods where Bitcoin is used as a means of payment - mostly in bear markets - the stability improves, while in periods where most people buy it to speculate - mostly in bull markets/bubbles - volatility increases.
That is right. Bitcoins are billion worth coins that are doing amazing. This incredible coin have made the whole world amazed with their charm and charismatic characteristics. And as far as stability of the bitcoins are concerned, they are really and highly unstable coins. They don’t stick to one point, rather just keep on going higher and lower with passage of time. Really they are fantastic.

There seem to still be a demand and out of all the crypto it is still the most widely-supported so IMHO it's still stable, in the meantime.

drops, whether sudden or gradual, only "oppresses" investors who were thinking price can always go up and only those who think rising price is the only way of making profit.

I suppose he's more of a trader and missed the chance to sell at the height? Hodlers aren't usually bothered by this since they know that even with prices fluctuating, the price still increases if you look at it an annual basis rather than weekly.
This has always been the case and we are used to it. But this time it could be different. Previously, capital did not leave the cryptocurrency market. When the price of bitcoin falling market appeared the coin which has been growing in price. Now it is not. All altcoins are showing a steady decline. This is a bad signal.

What kind of stability can we talk about? Bitcoin is absolutely unstable. Today it costs $ 9,000, tomorrow $ 15,000, and the day after tomorrow$5,000. And what kind of stability can we talk about in this area?!

The power of bitcoin is decentralization. Bitcoin does not belong to any centralized banking system, so it is stable.

bitcoin values will only be stable if the natural correction is over. I mean is when in a correction condition, then there is still a chance for bitcoin to drop again drastically.

G20 has made us calm because they support bitcoin and also they see that bitcoin chart will be stable starting mid this year.

I think the bitcoin still not recovered. so the bitcoin value is not yet stable. if you want to see and identify bitcoin movements, then you should look at all aspects that affect the crypto world. so you can compare the bitcoin value every year.

not much we must do today. when the correction condition then buys or hold is a good choice. and selling is a bad choice.

For me its looks like we really need one positive news that will bring back the confidence and renewed the interest of the investors to pump new money in the ecosystem so that they will not think of offloading this because they have somewhat lose their faith on the market.

Yes, there is still hope like Lightning Network. If this scalable solution be implemented, I think it will be the new catalyst for the market to bounce back at least to the 5 digits again and swayed more investors to the market.
