The best time to sell is when you see it as best time or you have made profits and now you want to exit the market cashing out profits but if you ask from others they can't tell you about this.So you are the one making this decision seeing if you want to sell or you see they will go down the next cycle and can buy again at dip but it should be your own decision.
Being too greedy will hinder selling, at some point we will need to sell so it will be better to sell when we already reach certain amount of that investment maybe a x2 or x10 still depending on our coins and how much we invest. We we're not sure when will the price will be high or low so when we got a opportunity to sell at higher price then better sell and just buy back once there is a chance to buy lower.
I would say the best time to sell is when you sell for profits, regardless if it’s the best price or not. Because if you keep on waiting for the perfect time to sell, you will never know if it’s the best price or not as the market will always comes unpredictable. So to avoid missing again the opportunities to sell and make profits, then take time to sell when you see the market price is positive enough, and buy more and do DCA when the market is showing a good buying opportunity. That way, you will never miss out every single opportunity in the crypto market.

Yes you are right, no one can give a definite answer to this question. I don't think we should focus on that, I know that we want the highest price to sell bitcoins and want to avoid a bear market. But if we really believe in bitcoin, then we can keep waiting without thinking about when the time is right. There have been many questions about this, starting from when to buy, when to sell and so on. If we only focus on that then we will continue to ask questions that actually don't have very accurate answers and are only in the form of speculation.
It's always good to consider selling your bitcoin at 2x to 3x the previous bitcoin ATH, that means you can wait for the price to reach $130K to $200K in the next ATH period. Of course I have to admit that it is a fantastic price to reach after halving of bitcoin, but any possibility that it could happen in the future including reaching it or it will just fail as expected.

We both expect repeat like the previous period, but still have to consider the risk for the amount that can afford to lose. Something that is expected about the future is not necessarily certain, this is just speculation based on previous events which in turn has made optimism grow and be maintained.

Ok so this is a little down the road from here but assuming after the next halving and bitcoin goes into another bull run, when would be a good time to sell?i have already went through a couple of bull runs and bear markets but i didnt sell and take profits. I would like to sell before the next bear market to take profits this time.

So if bitcoin's cycles remain true, when roughly would be the start of the next bear market after the 2024 halving and bull run for a good time to sell. Can this be predicted somewhat? For all you TA guys when would be a good time to sell just to give me an idea? Thanks.

I think no one can give certain answer, because the cycles that Bitcoin price follows could change over the time. For example, in the first cycle, Bitcoin took 367 days after the halving to reach ATH, while in the second cycle, it took 527 days. However, the world's events heavily affect Bitcoin in the short term, but for the longer term, we have no doubt that the price will be much higher than now. In my opinion, Bitcoin will reach a new ATH in the summer of 2025.

Well, that is something that can be difficult, because this happens whenever the distribution stage is generated, and once it occurs is when the bearish trend must be caught, that is when it is necessary to catch it with good leverage, but how to know? I think that experience prevails here, if an operator has experience he will grab it, in any case Bitcoin never goes down the first time, because when it goes down, it makes a correction and goes up, it is normal, bullish traps, then if when it falls, it does so in free fall, that's the behavior I've seen in bitcoin.

Except for Bitcoin cryptocurrency It is highly predictable that Bitcoin will go through these bad times again Will reach a good position Moreover, other Alt coin Since it is aligned with Bitcoin, it is much more secure than other tokens.I am now confident that bitcoin is back after coming through many bad markets 60k Will hit and take all my damage.If you hold patience you will definitely reap the rewards as now is the best time to hold Bitcoin Which will later come back with several times profit.

If you believe in the 4-year cycle and think it is the single most important factor for Bitcoin’s price as I do, then you should probably be thinking about selling sometime in Q3 of 2025. While the news cycle seems to control the daily price movements, the 4-year cycle is what controls the price for real. I stay away from trading tiny movements from the news cycle. Others should as well.

It takes patience and courage to wait until then before selling the coins. If you've tried this before and it worked perfectly, following your advice will be fantastic. I hope the market hype and sudden rise in bitcoin price does not influence the decision of those who, like me, will want to wait until then. Because the Q3 of 2025 is more than two years away, now is a good time to start saving for that time.

Listen, I gotta tell ya, technical analysis is no joke when tradin those digital coins. You gotta be an expert in those movin' averages, RSI, MACD, and a few others if ya wanna make some reel dough. Dont let those emotions like greed and FOMO get the best of ya either. Tradin based on feelins is a surefire way to screw yourself over. You gotta have a solid plan in place with precise entry and exit points, risk management, and a focus on long-term gains. Plus, you gotta be ready for those wild swings in the market. Ya can't panic and sell durin' those dips, or you'll regrett it later. Remember that crash in May 2021? Yeah, that was rough, but we bounced back, babyy! So, bottom line, if you want to get rich in the crypto game, you have to know your technical analysis and have a sound strategy. Oh, and a little bit of patients doesn't hurt either. I know the recent market is not as good as you expected. But jus' chill, things will get better.
I may have mentioned it on my previous reply, but I will say it again. I agree on the fact that one needs control over their emotion. This is the first step to learn. As we are talking about buy sell here, I think those who are already doing it, know it very well. But for those who just popped out in the market and starting their trades with good knowledge and TA skills, they will make the mistake too of taking decision based on their fear and greed. If one can overcome the urge of greed and fear, only then they can succeed in crypto world.

By that logic it means a year from the halving is also a bull market and we are out of the bear market right now and the bull market is ahead of us.
Yes, my keen observation of the market is that the bull season usually happens around the pre–halving year, the halving year itself and the post–halving year. They all have different dynamics driving them. In all, it's FOMO that drives them all through.

For me, while the FOMO in the Pre–halving year is driven by real fear of not wanting to miss out, the halving year itself is driven by expectations of what had happened before repeating itself and then the post-halving is driven by pure greed. The last is where Warren Buffet's principle of getting out of the market whenever others are getting greedy comes in. It's in the last that we usually experience a fresh ATH each time.

BTW, I don't believe the pre-halving bull rally starts a year to the next halving. I like to expect it from the last quarters of the year to the halving year. We might've started this year's rally earlier than expected if we judge by what it's happening in the market now. In some quarters, they still think that what we've now is even a trap.

In all honesty, no one can pinpoint the exact date when the bear will come upon the market. However, we can predict the year expectedly anyway; nonetheless with the mindset that we are also in a highly speculative industry where anything is possible. The way I like to judge my prediction is to expect the bear season two years from every Bitcoin halving year. I've taken this into cognizance from my two post halving experiences and it seems to work pretty well. For instance, from my speculation based on what I just explained, the next bear after the  coming halving in 2024 will begin in 2026. It happened on 2018. Repeated itself in 2022 too.
By that logic it means a year from the halving is also a bull market and we are out of the bear market right now and the bull market is ahead of us. That is basically the way we can calculate the cycles, the first year of bull market its going up, but not insanely high, just recovering from the bear market, the second year, 12 months after the halving, we start to have a bull market and eventually reach the ATH that we set, and then 24 months after the halving we are in a bear market and the cycle keeps going like that without a stop.

I believe that we are out of the bear market zone now, but not into the full-swing bull market zone just yet, but with time, we are getting there next. Exact market reversal time is highly unpredictable hence not bothering and holding across 2 or more halving event will get big profits for sure.

You must understand before trading or investing in Bitcoin, because the Bitcoin market is very sensitive both when prices rise and when prices fall, as far as I know someone has bought Bitcoin in a bear market, they have a target price to sell it back when the market is really at the next ATH point, whether it's one year from now, two or five years from now.

I mean this, for example: you buy Bitcoin at the current price of $ 24,800, say 1-3 Bitcoins, of course you have a target to sell $ 50k, $ 60k or $ 80k in the future you don't need to target a new ATH price, even if the price reaches $100k in the future, it could be that the $100k price lasts only 24 hours, after that it drops to another $24k price, when you wake up you will regret selling it too late.

For that, do your own research to sell, after you see a profit of 2x the price you bought at this time, usually greed will result in a regret value.

Yeah, it surely does. That's why I made the analysis I did based on past records. The pattern is still there. May be in time to come we may start seeing a different pattern (which will also repeat itself for a while too) before moving on to another. For now, the old pattern still exists. When Bitcoin was dipping last year and a whole lot of investors were panicking I knew it was nothing. We even saw a worse scenario in 2018–2019. For anyone to take profit if they're already riding this bull rally, I think they should wait for Bitcoin to do a X2 on its previous ATH. I judged that from the rally of 2017 and 2021. Look at their new ATHs and crosseck with the previous ones. Check the multiples they did to get new ATHs.

I agree that no one was able to pinpoint when the exact date but fortunately, we have some ideas and market expectations because of previous bear experience. History repeats itself, maybe that seems right and I believe the market cycle which every 4 years after the bear season we have the so-called Bullrun which is also followed by a bear market eventually.
We don't need to be exact and it was impossible because of the volatile market but at least, we have market insights to anticipate which is good enough.

However, there are some clues which can tell that the bull run is over. Usually in a bull market, first the bitcoin pumps, then high market cap altcoins pump, then low cap coins pump and when you see shit coins making 10-50x, it's time to be out of the market as the bull season should be ending soon. This is one indication that i use to exit the markets.

This is a great strategy to point out the bull run's end, but not every time this happens, tho. Sometime, Bitcoin could still stay at a stable point after an all time high and then slowly take correction and make a new stable price point just like we see recently in bear run too. Or other time it just falls over night in a matter of time. So it will be hard to tell when and how to buy and sell. The strategy of buying in bull run seeing the market on green comes from greed. Only fools and newbie would do such thing. But if you stay long enough in the market, you will know when to do what. So technical analysis is a must before taking decisions.

Just wait till you feel like it. And divide your assets in multiple section. Buy and sell in different price points. That way you can keep a steady flow and you can also take profits from them. Never put all your assets in one price range. I had to learn that in the hard way. So don't make that mistake. And in any bull run, the price will reach a new ATH price range in most of the time. So if you can pinpoint that, then you know when to sell and when to buy.

Well this is really a difficult decision to make as to when to sell in a bull market. The market sentiments are so positive that we never feel that it is the end of the bull run and we keep on buying at the top hoping it will create another all time high. It is impossible to time the market.

Selling of BTC has a specific time or date. If you want to make profit you can calculate it from the time you bought or invest it and check current price that you are planning to sell. Now the calculation should be depend on the buying price or time and current price if the two time frames are okay for you to sell then you can see but if the two time price are not good for you to make profit then you can defer it till the price goes up.

I might agree with tjtonmoy in some areas, yes you can sell it whenever you are ready because it is your coin and nobody should determine when to sell it because your expenses are not the same with other people, so if you want to sell it from others advise then it might affect your plans if you have. I will advise you that you should sell it whenever you need it but make sure you do that when the price is higher than the purchase price so that you will not lose in the investment.

...For all you TA guys when would be a good time to sell just to give me an idea? Thanks.

This is the problem that it is very difficult to accurately determine the beginning of a bullish trend, investors miss the opportunity to sell their coins at the maximum price. This is due to the fact that it is very difficult to correctly identify the process of distribution and accumulation. For this reason, investors partially take profit when the price reaches another resistance.

Can this be predicted somewhat?

Predicting correctly I think it's impossible, this market movement is not always stable, I say good sales when Bitcoin reaches a new ATH, but it's not very easy to do, the truth is we can't predict the price of Bitcoin, Bitcoin is not predictable even to predict it is very difficult, so you will determine sales to make a profit of course you have your own stance and desire, if you hold it from a slanted price from now on I think this is still in a profitable condition for you, and this depends on your purchase price at that time, whether above the current price or below the current price, I think you will know the answer.
