I feel trading at this moment is not right and waiting is better
Depends on your strategy in trading. I have seen scalpers out there who trades even at this bear market that we have now and they still earn profits like we are not in a bear market. All you need is to observe and carefully chose which coin to buy and sell as soon as the price goes up even at only 2% profit.
The key is not to be too greedy to take too large profits when conditions are still bearish, don't wait too long dude
you right, when the price has gone up and you're already profit then you should sell it immediately, because very likely the price will drop again
I am not saying you can't make profits with regular trading in bear market, what I am saying is that in my opinion if you are not professional trader it takes really too much effort and too much emotional stress for such a small reward, and most probably you will miss huge oportunities to make real money.
For example... RVN was trading from 12th sep till 11th oct at 220sat levels. Lets say you bought 1000$ of it at 220sat ... on 11th sep price started to rise, and from what you are saying is that you should sell it at 300 sat already ... well you have made 35% profit ... so you now have 1350$ ...
Well in next 10 days price went to 1000sat ... so selling somewhere in 800 - 1000sat levels would bring you to 4000$ ... and 1 month later price is at 400 - 500sat ... so you could spend 2000$ on buying RVN back at 400 - 500sat, making the exact same position than before (in absolute number of RVN coins), and put the other 2000$ in your pocket...
All this happened in bear market and it is by far not the only coin that had such a rally...
So let us think again, is it worth to wait months for perfect trading oportunity? If you ask me, the answer is YES, to someone else answer might also be NO...
