Topic: panic sell in trading - page 2. (Read 306 times)
That’s how newbies trade unknowingly, buying when the price is high, selling when price in dips in order to cut their losses, so that make them losers in the end. My point here, newbies aren’t intended to trade, because they don’t have the knowledge, skills and experience that a successful trader should have. They should focus on acquiring more knowledge and develop their skills instead. Trading should only be for experienced ones, not for newbies who are easily get influenced by FUDs and trade with greed.
What people fails to understand is that life itself is full of risk people don't want to risk the hard way and the lifestyle of a crypto preacher is full of making hard decisions in other to become wealthy taking risks is major life in the crypto space.
You can only make one hard decision and you'll not make any more decisions but you'll still be wealthy. You can decide to only buy Bitcoin and remove your eyes from the other crypto that others are buying. You can make your focus in the industry to be accumulating Bitcoin and you do that all the time when you have money. Making this decision and staying by it will help you more than putting yourself in a situation that you'll making difficult calls like when to sell or not to sell. Panic selling is very active in the market but you can avoid this by preparing your mind for anything that's about to happen and when you're conscious about the things to expect from the market then you'll not be suprise when it happens. You don't have to take risks in the market by trading or buying altcoins to make profits because buying only Bitcoin is enough.
Cryptocurrency is been known for one of the largest future financial assets, many new beginner in the crypto space are buying at the price of pump and selling at the rate of dip which i do call panic fears and the disvantage of this which i will said many lead to loss and regret and aslo many lead to regret later in the future if it not been stoped 40% to 50% of newbies just feel that crypto is where you come in and dump money and walk alway given it some time to pump back and take profit that i will sand to correct it a wrong decision to make as a newbie.
Most people that are buying at the top and are selling when the price drops are newbies, mostly newbies are the ones that do panic after buying coins, and they notice the price is dropping. Whenever there is a dump in the market, that’s the right time to buy a particular coin, but most newbies don’t buy during that period because they always have the mindset that the coin will keep dumping, and they don’t want to enter the market during that period. Whenever the market bounces back and coins are already pumping, that’s when most of them will start buying coins, and don’t be surprised that after buying sometimes, the trade will end up going against them.What people fails to understand is that life itself is full of risk people don't want to risk the hard way and the lifestyle of a crypto preacher is full of making hard decisions in other to become wealthy taking risks is major life in the crypto space.
Some people know that crypto is risky, but they don’t want to lose when taking the risk, they want things to always be in their favor, so when they are losing, they are always panicking. When trading, we should always know that it’s just full of profits and losses, you can’t be a trader, and you won’t be losing, that’s not really possible. 
Panic selling is natural especially when the market is crashing so beginners will be anxious to see the market continue to fall which eventually they sell at a loss.
How many incidents like this? I think there have been many even I used to experience such times and it is indeed stressful.
What is wrong is that they don't do their research properly and even tend to FOMO and Hype that is happening.. for example, when there is a trend and the price of the coin goes up, he buys at a high price and when it goes down he sells for fear of losing more.

What you mentioned is a very common occurrence and mostly happens to beginners, and that is due to the lack of knowledge and understanding of the correct trading activity and many beginners trade and invest in cryptocurrencies without really understanding how it works and knowing and how to deal with it if there are risks involved.
All beginners including those who are already experts when they become beginners will definitely feel this, so to become a profitable trader they need enough experience to learn everything that happens related to all the risks that occur when experiencing it. However, most of them give up easily and when they experience losses because they panic sell and some blame crypto which is actually their own fault for trading without having enough knowledge and experience because it takes a long time to become a successful trader.

Too many people don't make any difference between large cap coins and small cap ones, IMO. The crypto universe is full of dead coins (or almost dead) unfortunately and because few of the cryptos they have acquired are not available anymore on any exchanges, or isn't worth more than one satoshi since years, they think it can be the same for every cryptos, including Bitcoin and other top100 cryptos. But they shouldn't forget that most money is invested in large cap cryptos, and they can't fail like any random shitcoin. Top100 cryptos comprises around 98% of the total crypto market capitalization according to Binance Research.

They chase FOMO and sell during FUD…
They chase FOMO and sell during FUD…
A lack of knowledge and excessive greed often make people lose money in financial markets such as cryptocurrency. Newbies fall victim to FUD because they don't understand the market and have no idea about the history of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, which is why they believe the rumours that any coin that is losing value will go to zero and they are going to lose all their money.
They FOMO because they have no knowledge about candles and charts and how they need to react to quick pumps and dumps; when they see a coin or token having a flat green candle, they feel it's the opportunity they should cash and pocket some profits, so they jump in not knowing they are going to become exit liquidity for those who bought earlier.
Financial markets are often unpredictable, but newbies don't take this seriously.
some traders don't like to see loss at all, they feel the moment they buy a coin it should just pump and never turn back which in most cases doesn't happen, prices may dump first before pumping after you have bought into the coin, that's one of the reasons why DCA is advised especially for long term holders, but newbies don't want to see any kind of loss, so the moment they see the market going the other way they close the trade to avoid more losses and pain only to see the market pump in a short while
There is no way that you will want to trade and you won't lose money and that is why before you start trading you should have prepared your mind for what you don't expect because you will get a lot of surprises when it comes to trading a lot of people still find it very difficult to understand that trading is not as easy as it thinks and it is also not as hard as people think. It's just for you to understand the simple principles and follow them gradually to have a successful trade, either you Make profit or you lose money.
And also trading is not for everybody so once you notice, there's a lot of losses it would be better for you to actually just quit, waiting for a very long time it's not a bad idea. You can take your time to do DCA as one of the strategy and buy when it's convenient and sell when it's high everything about crypto depends on how the investor manages The assets that is the most important thing you notice this one doesn't work out after a lot of efforts people then it is better to just quit and move to the next one.
Until now, many people have fallen victim to Fomo, they are too intoxicated by the hype and trends. Then those who fall victim or are just carried away by them are those who really
have no idea or knowledge about crypto trading.
So if you are deep in trading or you know what is being done in trading, you will definitely not feel panic selling in the crypto assets you hold.
FOMO, FUD, Hype and Trends are definitely good in the market as this are what actually makes the market to sometimes move heavily either upward or downward. The only problem is just as you have said it Many people lack the knowledge of what to buy, when to buy and when to sell. My advice has always been when you have your conviction on a coin and this coin to me is bitcoin only (the rest are pure gamble no matter how we sugar coat them) I will always say buy the fear and then sell the greed, that’s when there is FUD in bitcoin there is always a price fall and when the FOMO kicks in there is always and upsurge of price.
Imagine someone buying an already overhyped memecoin, you are simply setting yourself up to been used as escape liquidity. Trump at $18 and seemingly looking for like 450% movement before the ATH is retained is actually something that needs to teach many investors lessons.
Buy bitcoin and when it dumps don’t panic, buy more. As for Altcoins learn to take profits during its FOMO periods and leave moonbag Instead
Very common for newbies.
They chase FOMO and sell during FUD…
That’s just the reality as not everyone can be good at trading or consistently profitable. one trader’s profit comes from another’s loss, and it’s just how the game works. And in most cases it’s the newbies, who are less experienced and less educated about the crypto market, that end up losing money.

If they're trading in futures with big margin or shitcoins, cut loss for 40%-50% is fine.
But, if they trade big caps cryptocurrency in spot market, definitely cut loss for 40%-50% seems stupid since it's normal the price can drop that low for many weeks or months. As long as you're sure you didn't buy shitcoins, you only need to hold and in the next few years, the price will recover and you're in profit.

To have mastery of any strategy that could be profitable to a trader he must have to conquer his fears, some would say at least 80% of your fears you conquer but I think if you can eliminate it totally then that would cool. Both the fear of missing out and that of uncertainty has led to many traders making trading mistakes which has cost them money, some have even blown their account which they never planned for. Building oneself through experiences and learning from resource materials on trading could actually help a trader expand his knowledge to making better trading choices that could drastically reduces losses and increase profits.

That’s true, but to minimize risk, we need to take calculated risks. Trading is already risky, but it becomes even riskier when we jump in without proper knowledge, just like those traders or investors who only join when the market is bullish.Most of them panic when they get caught up in fear-driven news. And like I said, since they don’t fully understand how the market works, they become easy targets. Meanwhile, the whales who usually trigger these panic moments just sit back and enjoy the profits.
