I wonder what kind of stuff members would be doing with btc at $500K (10 tril)?
Make plans? Too early? 30 mo is just 2.5 years.
one step at a time bro
a new ATH at 70k next year
maybe 100k gets topped next year.
oh hats off to buddy 28k!
I was actually responding to the post by @OgNasty (without quoting it directly).
I can keep up the idea of both 70-100K next year and 500K in 30 mo in my head simultaneously, especially if it would result in the lack of premature selling at 70K, lol.
If we get to 70k and I am alive I am selling some. Not much but some.
How ironic that you, Philip, think just like a newbie.
Did you know that $70k is in the dead center of deadman's zone?
On a personal level, I do not change my already set sell orders or my already buy orders in any kinds of meaningful or material ways, but I also do not do the opposite in terms of selling more during a time that the price is likely to move up and pass through.. I also do not sell when the BTC price is going down... just saying... You surely have to do what you like, even if it is dumb.... relatively speaking.
but I suppose that if I were to make some kind of a large purchase using BTC or even fiat that is inside of my BTC trading accounts, then maybe I might feel that I need to adjust my buy/sell orders (and strategies) in order to attempt to account for some large purchase that I might have had ended up making..
Well I agree with your opinion, I think if you can specifically analyze you have a deep knowledge about Bitcoin, but with the current market conditions, it is natural that there are many people who would have the opposite opinion, because many people think that when some negative news comes out, the price of Bitcoin will go down. will go and they will have a new opportunity to invest more.
If I understand what you are getting at, you seem to be wanting to allow the news and those kinds of things affect your BTC accumulation strategy and then to potentially be fucking around with timing the market based on those kinds of ideas, and sure that might be a tiny bit helpful; however the thing that is most helpful is to figure out the totality of your own situation by analyzing each and every one of your own particulars which includes:
your cashflow, how much bitcoin you have already accumulated, your other investments (including cash reserves), your view of bitcoin as compared with other investments, timeline, risk tolerance, and your time, skills, goals (investment/lifestyle targets) and your abilities to strategize, plan, research and learn along the way including tweaking strategies from time to time to consider trading, reallocating, use of leverage and/or financial instruments.
Figuring out the news and short term moves happens to be towards the bottom of priorities, but also even if you might consider that to be one of the components that you need to consider, then it is ONLY one of the concerns, and you need to figure out the other matters respective to yourself and your situation, too.
It can be the case of any other token or coin but if we talk about Bitcoin only then it can be said that Bitcoin is not very easily manipulated. Because Bitcoin is ready to hold its position.
Ok.. fair enough.. I cannot really disagree with you in regards to those points, but still you have to figure out what you are doing, since whatever the fuck bitcoin is doing (or might be doing in the short term) still remains ONLY one small portion of the overall formula.
Secondly, I think it is better not to limit to just trading because when some bad times come, many will hesitate, and when one hesitates, the long term plan will be lost.
Well you are lost also if you believe that I am talking about or trying to suggest that it is a good idea to attempt to trade, especially if you are a newbie and even if you have been in bitcoin for a while, I doubt that I am recommending trading in the way that I suggest could be good ways to manage your BTC portfolio once you have reached levels of accumulation that are within your target level or perhaps exceeding your target accumulation levels.
So some of the most important things to do in the beginning is to establish your BTC accumulation target levels and then figure out buying strategies that will help you get there, whether DCA, lump sum buying and/or buying on dips... and then perhaps once you get to your BTC target accumulation levels then you likely have more freedoms to manage your BTC holdings in ways that might include selling on the way up and buying on the way down.. but still you have to consider your own circumstances to figure out if you need to abandon DCA or maybe to modify how you might employ DCA in the event that you continue to want to employ that.
Surely, I don't recommend selling in order to buy more BTC.. but if the BTC price happens to go down and you happen to have cash because you sold on the way up, then likely it is a good idea to figure out how to employ that extra cash that you had generated from BTC that you sold on the way up. I would not call that trading (even though some people do call that trading) but instead a kind of BTC portfolio maintenance and even the creation of a kind of downside insurance (just in case).
