The dynamic situation of cryptocurrency these days in general responded by three ways: selling panicly with the risk of cut-loss in order to save the remaining assets from more fallen, hold the assets and playing save by not doing any trading activities, and view the phenomenon as a diamond chance then buying coins in huge amounts of investments while the prices are low. Of course, those three ways are logically humane and each has their own pluses and minuses.

I am intrigued upon the first two: panic selling and postponing from trading.

On doing panic selling, ones tend to sell their assets in the price lower than in the actual price. The main goal is to sell their coins faster to save themselves from the worse situation, without consideration upon the impact of their behaviour towards the market in general.

Meanwhile, ones could also hold their assests and postpone from doing any trading activities, in order to keep their assets safe and even maybe went on hiatus from digital assets bussiness while waiting for the bullish days to be back. They don't want to sell their assets in low price, but the act of not doing any trading is logically also has impact in general. At least, it is contributing on slower the trading traffic.

In your opinion, which one is the worse way among the two?

I would argue that panic selling is the worse option. It not only impacts the market, it also impacts the trader. I just think about the people who sold their Bitcoin during early bear markets, and how much they must be kicking themselves now.

its better to postponed our trading position than panic selling.postponed trading mean we miss the opportunity that may occur in crypto market.personally i am prefer missed it than miss my money.we dont loss anything when we postponed trading.but when we panic selling , we could suffer huge loss.

Postpone from Trading is better than panic selling because we don't get big losses, we just miss the opportunity to trade. Panic selling it Is the worst thing in the trading world because if you sell your coins while panicking, the results you get will be disappointing.

Almost any investor who has entered this market has been panicking, and that period of time will be very bad because you will not be able to control your assets. In my opinion, postponing a trade only makes you lose your chance and do not need to worry too much because there are thousands more opportunities waiting for you in the near future. Of course, everyone has their own options in investing but selling panic is what makes you feel most scared when investing.

We panic if we are new in trading, and it results to postpone trading or the moment that we unable to sell our coins and it happens that the price goes down frustrations comes because sometimes our order doesnt sold because it is tol high or we forget to sell it. Postpose trading is much worst than panic selling for me.

I don't think so. The opposite actually happens when you panic. You don't have any other instinct than to dispose your coins as soon as possible even if it means selling at a loss. For me that's the worst mistake anyone can commit when trading. Postponing your trades isn't half as bad since it could mean that you're just taking your time for better positions. Sometimes, changes slip by, but usually, postponing your trades could mean composure and self control.

It depends on how we research the coins. If the coins still have upcoming events, many great plan ahead and maybe still can catch the investors, it's okay to hold until we get profits from it.
But if we heard the coins is dead, bad management from the team and they not care about the investors, cut loss is the best way before the value of the coin going zero.
So, it depends on the coins itself, if it's still promising why not we hold longer to see it's progress

Panic selling is of course is the worse one of the two. When you panic sell you guarantee your losses and there is no turning back. On the other hand, if you simply just "postpone" trading or what some call "becoming a long term investor" then you at least have a chance, however slight that is, to regain value of your coin back.

Holding your coins hoping that somehow they will recover their value in the future is not a bad strategy but only if you bought coins that have a good development team, if you bought coins just for the sake of speculation because you were trying to make money with them then most likely trying to hold your coins in those circumstances will only increase your losses, if you are going to employ the strategy to try to protect your money from possible crashes then you need to invest only a small part of your capital in a single coin.

If you do not do that and the coin in which invested crashes the losses your capital will suffer will be enormous, it is not rare to see altcoins crashing more than 90% in a matter of days and the same could happen to your capital if you invest in a single coin.

Reminds me of this poem called 'Don't Quit' by some guy:

Quote

you never can tell just how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit—
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

It's normal feeling to panic, but it is not normal if we are always afraid and always panicking and not learning at all, it will just worsen your profit and strategy that instead of having you own strategy what is good to do, you will panic and will start selling at cheap price, anyway, we should be learning some risk management and controlling it.

It is not normal to do panic selling or panic buying in the market because it is a sign that you are not emotionally prepared to either invest or trade in the market. You need to master on controlling your emotions first before you try to engage into something because emotions are low key killer of your profits and future so if you don't control your emotions then your emotions will control you.

Well said, trading is not a good game for thise who have suffered in emotional experience or have not good feeling because you need to focus and you need to know when you have to control your feeling in able to stay in a trade. How many times trader losses big amount because of panic selling and suddenly after they sold the price will go up. This is a common scenario where emotional traders being caught and rekt in the market. Panic selling is definitely not a good idea to do in trading.

this we can see from the circumstances, if the price falls after rising high, and someone has bought at a high price. selling faster is good for saving their assets. but when prices are as low as they are today. someone buys a coin and after that it's a dump. then he sells it. I said that was wrong. Today's falling prices will not be deep. and will recover soon. so holding and postponing sales is a good thing.

If you ask me, it is panic selling which has worse consequences as compare to the postponing. When some sells out, the amount of his asset and holding decreases. However a simple delay will not cause any sort of deficiency in his asset. With time when his asset will rise up again, he will be able to make profit but the sold coins are hard to recover. Selling out after losing emotions is not great.

In my opinion both are as bad, before you make a trade you need to know at what level you will be out of the market, if you do not know then when the market turns against your prediction you will be in a dilemma, do you sell now or later? If you panic sell then you could lose money that you could have not lost if you had a precise idea of where your stop loss was, but if you postpone closing your position when the market is clearly turning then your losses could be many times larger than what you imagined.

As you can see the best defence against both of those mistakes is to have a system which indicates you what to do and when and not many have the luxury of having such a precise system.

As well as the risk associated in everything, there are some core team that might promise listing dates but on the date itself they postpone it, this is part of their strategy, so we can't just rant that they broke their promise, we should practice patience, as not everything we want will be in place.

Yes, indeed, sometimes the dev or the core team are postponing the trading because they don't want their token to dump due to some reasons, such as delay in launching, delay in some other things, so it is better than they took the risk in listing but have no actual platform yet, or their platform is not yet ready.

yes, 3 things that I often do when facing market volatility. make a sale to save the remaining assets, hold it by not trading, and buy when the price we think is below. In my opinion all of that is part of the crypto trade whose prices are not stable. when you ask which of these things are worse. in my opinion is to sell with panic, usually people do this because the market price is not what they expect. sell frantically, I think make yourself sorry if in the end the price starts to recover quickly. refrain from selling, for me is a pretty good strategy to get profits when prices start to rise again. so in my opinion, selling in a panic is something worse than holding back to wait for prices to recover.

In that case panic sell is the worst. When a trader or investor panics when the value suddenly drops, and immediately sells their crypto. The nature of the investor or trader is very easy to manipulate. People who are easily manipulated are the worst people in my opinion.

If they panic sell, the manipulators have achieved their purpose and will surely buy at a very cheap price. This market any coin can be easily manipulated and Bitcoin can rise unexpectedly without any reason. I think you should first stabilize your mentality when participating in the crypto market because everything can happen during this time and also be careful when investing.

I do not like investing in this period because the risk is now very high and certainly you will not be able to make a profit if the psychology is not stable. I personally patiently and wait for a better time to make money because this year is not a year for small investors.

I think panic selling is the worst one. Trading shouldn't be about psychological. Because others act according to psychological and you should evaluate the others in order to do nice trades. But if you do panic sell, you will become the normal trader and you can't make money with doing similar things with others. So, do different things than others and make no panic sell.

If we do this all the time, to panic all the time the price is declining, then how can we be able to take profit on it, we will just lose our fund and investment, so better not to do investment if you cannot control your emotion and you are in doubt in everything that you are doing, it is fine to do investing, but be wise with your decision, think well.

If trading is only about psychology then you will panic all the time, because prices fluctuate up and down very quickly, every minute, every day, and make you panic. Trading requires you not to use your emotions and feelings when analyzing and trading because sometimes the market will make you frustrated if you overexert your emotions. You must be smart to manage your emotions, be wiser in making choices, and start to be more patient

In any case, the trader experiences certain emotions because of his results, whether it is victory or defeat. But a novice who has lost a lot of money rather than an experienced trader will experience panic. After all, a professional always observes sharp market fluctuations and immediately after bad news or negative changes in the cryptocurrency market, takes certain actions to minimize his losses. Yes, of course the trader is worried, but this is no longer a panic, just a professional excitement.

Missing a trade is a normal thing. You might sometime enter a trend near the completion of the trend. But panic selling is stupid. If you're bringing emotions in the trading and selling out of influence, then trading doesn't make much a sense. You can save yourself from nboth the situations by putting stop losses in place. Stop loss will help you in maintaining the risk reward ratio. This will save you from giving in to fud or fomo.

I agree with you. Panic selling is the worst that can happen to anyone rather the worst mistake that one can ever make in his life. When an investor sells out his asset due to the fear of loss, he makes an irrecoverable blunder. However, a simple postponing is just like a long term investment where once money is spend then all that an owner does is, holding for a long period of time, for pump.

Both of them are bad but I feel panic selling is more worse. Why did I say so? It's simple. It goes beyond say that not being able to control one's emotion while trading is usually one of the leading factors to failure for new traders. I know someone who panic sold and shorted bitcoin at $7300 and today the market has taken the opposite direction. He's currently close to getting liquidated. His losses thus far has exceeded over $20,000. As you read, His inability to get a hold of his emotions has cost him.

On the other hand, One can postpone trading for a while and keep your finds in a USD pair like USDT. Yes, your amount would stsy the same. That's better than taking the L in my opinion. Only thing is, You might miss out on some upward opportunities.

If we panic all the time there is nothing we can do for it, we will just waste our money and wasting our time buying at high and selling at low. We should invest when we are ready, if not yet ready, then don't push yourself, don't do panic buying too, seek guidance and help for those whom you trusted most for you to be inspired, investing is not that easy but be worth it if you have a lot of patience.
