Pour one out for that newbie... who had been supposedly seriously contemplating selling and buying cheaper in a bull market that had already experienced a 56% price correction.. and at the time of his/her post very near the bottom of such BTC price correction zone... who knows? who knows? but each of us better make sure that we are adequately pee pared for UPpity before we screw around with selling BTC.. especially during a correction in a bull market (even if you happen to be questioning the "bull market" status.. which is what the beartwat manipulators want you to do).
OUCH that has got to hurt selling right at the bottom and now we are rallying up probably above 50k
It seems like we get some of those every single time, and they present their case as if it were the smartest thing in the world to be doing.. selling some and going to buy back cheaper. Frequently, we do not see those ones again. Sometimes I find it hard to be nice or to give the benefit of the doubt to those ones. I recall that we had a couple of weeks of correction in something like March 2017 that brought the BTC price down to about $850, and it was hovering in the $1k arena as a kind of Spring point, and a member posted that he was selling, and he was going to buy back lower. I said that I thought he was doing the opposite of what he should be doing, but we would see what happens because for sure none of us know what is going to happen - especially in the short term, but sometimes it can get quite dangerous to be selling rather than buying on dips (even though dips tend to be scary while they are happening).
From the charts, we can see that in that March 2017 case, the BTC prices pretty much went UP from there, and sure, they did not get decisively above $3k until about September 2017, but we also know that so far they have not gone below $3k, either.. so sometimes there becomes a point that the BTC price never every again returns to such a price point.. but at any given price point, we cannot be sure, exactly when that is going to be...... .even though selling on dips or failing to buy more on dips.. do tend to play out as a common theme in which that never to return price point is experienced (unknowingly at the time)...
