Hello. I have a folio of BTC, ETH, NEO and some alts. I've been watching at Bitcoin since 2015 but bought only at this summer (and the last move was quite bad, I bought some BTC for $4600). I try to study, watch vids, read forum and twitters. Chris Dunn has a vid on the topic but nothing really specific. I'm interested in some ideas about what to do when prices are falling.  Sell alts and hold bitcoin? Short? (and if yes, so the next question is how to learn how to short?).
The best way to do when the price gets low is to buy bitcoins so that when the price goes up you have a bigger profit. Buying bitcoin when price's low is to buy BTC

Buy BTC, ETH, NEO and do not sell them for six months. Now a very profitable purchase!

The only choices, we have to hold the coin you bought previously and buy more coin when the coin is at dips. In this way, you can make more money when the price of coin increases in the market.

HODL. Just wait for the prices to go back up. Prices for every alt is really cheap right now, so look to make some other investments elsewhere.

As the price of BTC falls, I just keep calm and wait for further changes. I don't panic, neither pull off all of the investments I made. I just stay still, since I knew for sure that it will soon be back to normal.

For the most part day to day bitcoin fluctuations seem to be the result of rumor.  China bans bitcoin! No it didn't! Yes it did!

There are also some curious correlations between bitcoin on some of the exchanges with events in Russia.
One thing that I'm trying to do is to do some wavelet/Fourier analysis to separate the different drivers of bitcoin prices.

Need to keep calm because it is normal with trading. But the same time read some articles about the current situation for us also to know what really is happening out there.

When the bitcoin and altcoin price is falling and my investment dropped down and I encountered losses, the first step I did is to calm myself.  I remind myself not to panic because it is part of the whole picture.  Then, I consider it perfect time to add my bitcoin and altcoin possession so I start buying.  If you sell bitcoins or altcoins during red days, you will just end up as a loser leaving you no chance to recover your losses.  On the other hand, if you keep holding even bitcoin or altcoin is on red days, you have the chance of earning what you have loss when its value bounce back.  Just have patience and everything will fall into right places.

If I think when the price drops, I buy more coins, because now with the cheap price, after that I survive for several months, I will sell it for a high price. so I get more profit.

If the price falling just hodl, don't panic and have a trust to the coin that you hold it will rise again. Hopefully  Smiley

That's true, take the good opportunity to buy a lot of coins so that by the time that Bitcoin pump up again, it would be a grateful investment for you, that how trading it works, buy low and sell high. But it should always consider your profit, if it is profitable to sell or not.

The smartest way to do when prices is falling is to catch it. Take the opportunity to buy some more. Just be sure that the coin will recover lately.

Traders usually don't just watch the price move, they also watch where it moves to and base it on historical data. In other words, they watch for significant price levels which server as either support or resistance.

depending on the situation,
for now,  I chose to sell altcoin and hold fiat, because my prediction btc can still go down to $ 4000.

and I will monitor the situation, and buy back if the price has reached my target


For me I just hold my altcoin and Bitcoin, this is usually happen even before, this is the right time to test your self if you can handle your emotions, most of the time new traders get panic if they saw Bitcoin is continue falling down, they end up selling their alt coins which is bad,  if you still have funds for your other transaction just let your coins in your wallet, I assure after dumping, there is always pumping maybe not today but for the coming months, Smiley
I did the same thing too when price are goes down I prefer to hold my coin and wait for the increasing of price. I already used to this situation since I have been in this kind of world way back 2015, so I learned from my past experience to not panic when like this situation is happening, and have patience too.

Nothing special is needed. Calming down a bit is the best thing help you during market fall. This help you think more accurately about your further and next strategy. And minimizes the risk.
What will you do when the market will go up? If you will sell the currency when market will go up, then you must purchase once the market is going down. Bitcoin almost touched $20 k and it came back, so if you have already earned some profit from that then just stay relax and wait for some time because it will surely bounce back with more profit. If you are not a day trader, then just forget about the market and concentrate on your profession for some time as a distraction.

Do your research first. See what top traders are thinking about the particular coin. If there is no hope, then trade it for something better. But if there is any chance that prices would go high, you should just wait.

People usually:

- Take short positions
- Hedge into something (in crypto, they usually hedge into USD and other fiats)
- Buy stuff to sell when the market goes bullish
- Do nothing and wait

My personal preference is the 3rd and 4th options. Short margins sometimes betray you bad! Also tried the second choice a few times and it sometimes fails. So nowadays I just wait it out, or if the price is near the bottom I buy things.  Grin

hoping by next quarter everything will be went well, lets hope no more fudders around who will makes newbies panic, btc just needs to lie low for now to balance the market. we will see it soon arise and make another ATH like it always did after it falls.
