Topic: WHEN we should sell BTC after halving as a LONG-TERM invest? (Read 618 times)

We hope that he already sell it yesterday so he can buy bitcoin again today because the bitcoin price now is down deeper than yesterday. Or if he did not sell it yesterday, he could still hold it again, and don't sell it now because he will not make a profit. The bitcoin price now seems to get stronger than a few hours ago so we can hope that the price can bounce and back to a higher rate. If there is much demand for buying bitcoin, we can wish that the price slowly will increase.

Somewhere around 2021 to 2022 but the price will experience a boost in speculation before halvening.   This virus may have messed up that idea slightly but the effect is still there underneath in helping sentiment slightly, its just not going to boom with such a weight of news on top of it.
    If you are talking long term then you not so much a trader type speculator but the type who measures ingredients, makes a cake and is willing to wait for it to bake which is good because the biggest gains come this way.   BTC especially is extremely hard to judge in its volatility and in any case the trends over time are more certain and more easily observed by the lay person.


I like that you say after because the price I expect to be highest for 2020 in the first half and second half it will digest any gains, the news and protocol changes.   It all plays a part in future growth and block changes to the reward for mining is not immediate in altering the markets but the longer the distance from the change event the greater the difference in available BTC from that source is.   So I expect to see a larger move after more then 6 months then in this year itself, good things come to those who wait.     If people expect too much then I think the market as the beast bull or bear tries to make them jump, possibly even sell.
  The reason selling is important is it is a large source of BTC to the market, when its wrung dry and that source is greatly reduced and demand is continuing and good then the market mood will change again.

if you want to sell it now seems like the time is a bit right, why? because usually the price before halving will go down, then you can buy it in support, now the price of bitcoin is still in the support zone, you have to look overnight so you can sell it right if it moves down

You can do that if you have a good knowledge from this set up, scalping with buy and low strategy works with investor/trader who can manage
to follow the market movement.
Long term is good if you do have more fund to keep buying and add assets to your wallet.

Selling wasn't a good idea for holders right now, because the price might be surging one of this days. That will be possible to commence this coming week, so if you're doing that in a wrong timing; I thinks you'll regret every decisions that you've made. Plan things accordingly, and don't ever rush on something which didn't have a higher probabilities.

I have also held back a long time ago, but until now, I have not found the right time to sell assets. however, there are currently so many good predictions, starting at prices of more than $ 13,000, $ 15,000, $ 20,000, even new ATHs. if you are one of them, for now, the best thing to do is to wait. when the price reaches what I mentioned above, you are free to sell it. however, if you think that you are producing assets under $ 10k, that is very profitable.

Since we dont know exactly on what are going to happen after halving I think its best to wait for that moment unless you already have set target price on when you're planning to sell your bitcoin.

Im a long term hodler and have a set price when I will sell my coins but if I see a reasonable amount to take profit already then I will grab the chance. Sometimes its wise not to become greedy since crypto is high volatile.

so true .  this is prolly the strat of a common btc investor   .  while to some , they could have other strat too  . for me , im not really a long term goer but im still excited to see if what halving can do in the price of btc  .

 i sell btc when i need it the most but let say if i will not be really needing it , i will wait for more better oppurtinites  . i assume that after halving the price is still high , so id say i will be selling my coins during those times because im expecting a dump sooner or later

This question is very subjective, some investors will sell a small portion of their Bitcoin just to recover the initial investment, while some people will keep on holding their shares in the hope that Bitcoin will reach 6 digits and they are willing to take the risk of waiting, each investors have their patience when to sell their Bitcoin.

the main question also remains that which price is best to sell btc after halving!

good target, it's just that you have to wait for an uncertain time. however, $ 30k is the new ATH for bitcoin, and to date, the price of bitcoin is very difficult even to survive at a price of $ 10k. I myself am targeting a price of $ 18,000, but I speculate that such prices can only be reached at the end of the year, or in 2021.

My target price is around $30k, but if there’s a chance to go up high beyond that level then I should wait a little. Remember, if we make a new ATH we don’t know what will be the peak and expect another dump from that level. If after the halving bull started to kicked off, wait a little before you sell and you should also have a target price.

One million dollars prediction is not too close to the reality if that's what the manipulators want the investors to think. Some people just ridiculously predict without a close valid information to back them up. And since the last ATH of Bitcoin was $20,000 I'm a little certain that the next ATH would be beyond $30,000+ or more.

One million dollars is a big figure for Bitcoin's current position
But it can be over $ 20,000 this year.
 I would like to see  opinion of people about the highest bitcoin price this year

This is correct. Though what the OP was trying to point out was, everytime Bitcoin break resistance level or take a small leap, let's say a thousand or couple of dollars, people will start selling on this level. He couldn't make decisions for himself when to sell and this is what happens when you invested without setting a realistic target price range.
Making decisions when to sell is always the challenge for the long term hodler, and being contented and not being too greedy is the key to gain profit, or shall I say slowly but surely.

I have come across many predictions on Facebook, Twitter, reddit and tradingview on bitcoin heading towards $100,000 after halving and to some extent i do agree with them. When we should sell bitcoin should be when we think it is OK for us and we are in profits.
