How do you trade a Bearish Market?

[Crypto Library]

Hey guys, so I was just wondering after I saw some flyers of KCGI tournament on X, how do you trade the bearish market?

As a newbie, my first thought was sell, sell, sell... but trading in a trading competition will require buying and selling. Plus, traders won't be given demo accounts to blow. Plus, you need to own it before you sell it?

I believe I have a lot to learn though so I am using available resources to do that. However, How much skill is needed for trading competitions?

I think you have wrong idea about bearish market or you have done a typing mistake in this post.
Because in bearish is season it will be really stupidity if a person sell his fund or holding coins because when market on Bearish the prices of all coins down towards so if any person want to sell his coin on that time then most likely he will face loss.
Now if I tell about trading on Bearish season then there are lots of trader who are doing trading like as you buy and sell i.e. the day trading but for this you have to well skilled on technical analysis. But the best decision will be make long term investment on bearish season.

No gamblers in trading becomes profitable. If we think what we are doing is gambling, we should take a break in trading.

Profitable or not, it will depend on the strategy. If someone gambles in trading, it will be too risky because he doesn't have any idea about the strategy in trading. Sure, it is better to stop and focus learning about the basic thing in trading first.

However, even if we have a good strategy because we joined mentorships, it doesn't mean it works for you. You are not the same as your mentor because you are a newbie, we should follow what he teach step by step because that is the only we need to become him in the future.

I don't really understand about mentorships, I think we can learn trading ourselves.
I never have a mentor, I learn trading myself and I practice trading myself, but I focus learning everything about trading first before doing it. However, if you have a trusted mentor, it is also good.

If you ignore his advice, this is the problem you need to fix to be profitable in trading.

What advice? Mentor advice?
I think it depends what advice it is. If the advice looks realistic, just follow the advice.

Shorting is obviously one option if you want to go with that so there is really nothing that would change if you just go with that, instead of trying to make money based on going up, you would be trying to make money from going down so the system works you just reverse the whole thing. Secondly, you could keep buying as much as you want and if you keep doing that then you are going to be fine, because we are talking about something that could be not too short term, but it is still trading and it is still at bear market as well. I personally try to make it as much as I can because it works quite well for me, and I think its going to mean a lot as well. If you keep on buying as much as you want then you are going to end up with making as much money from it as you want while you wait for it as well.

Right now seems on the bearish market and makr scalping with short term trading more profitable than long term trading. I got any top altcoin success break out more than 10% from the most lower pricr but not close opportunity return back or make other lower price.
Seems more profitable when trading woth short term during have bearish market and get profitable more faster than keep hold it for longer time ot become long term holding.

Bitcoin price during bearsih moment not stable yet and take opportunity with bigger profitable earn as short term trading.

If you are doing futures then shorting or dealing up with leverage trades on which if the market would turn out to be bearish and does continue on moving down then it would be understandable on what you should gonna do but we do know that there would really be that hindrance considering on the anticipation that the market would really be moving up again or simply having that recovery.
It cant really be that be stopped nor be avoided for you not to think about those probabilities on which this causes for you to have such hindrance on the moment that you would
be making up such decision.

Hmm, OP as a trader of a longer time frame I dont trade in the bearish market, while in the bearish market, I used to readjust the positions, by accumulating more on different points. If you are calling this to be a bearish market well, the current market is not bearish it's just under fear pressure. TBH this is normal in my view whales are active, and weak hands are getting punished. Hodler is accumulating.

Bear season is the preparation time, as spot traders cant trade as there are just a couple of opportunities and future trades avoid due to high funding fees.

How much skill??? It seems that it is very difficult to explain, considering that knowledge and techniques in trading will never run out... the more you learn new knowledge, you will understand that there is other knowledge... the difference between those with more knowledge compared to someone with minimal knowledge is, their strategy in reading the market will be more potential and accurate... so having as much knowledge as possible will never be a mistake ever made... it will really be useful guys...

How to trade during a bearish market? Do futures trading and go short the market. That's the only way for you to earn money on a bearish market.

You're a newbie like you said. Don't join to those trading competitions. For sure I'm not the only one who said because newbies will not stand a chance to those experts. How much skill is needed? You need a lot, and when I mean a lot, I mean "A LOT". A lot of self-control, a lot of discipline, a lot of good decision making skills, and of course a lot of CAPITAL. At the end of the day, those expert traders will be the ones that will get the most out of these trading competitions and newbies like you? You will not get anything, and you might even lose your money during the competition.

Follow what I and other said to you. Don't join these type of tournaments because newbies will not get any from it.

With a note that anyone who enters futures trading should know how to read market movements, know how candles move.
If you don't have the basics of trading and don't know how to do analysis, never try to trade in futures trading, it is a fatal mistake and will be detrimental.

Indeed, many beginners enter futures trading because they think it's easy, just guess whether it's up or down.
But in practice it is very risky, and many beginners lose in the end.

Especially beginners who are determined to participate in trading tournaments like KCGI, it requires qualified trading skills, not just trading.

It is true that we are in red market but we are no longer in the bearish market. Scalping for a short or long term can be profitable, it depends on how you do it. You also need to choose a proper coin, it won't work well if you choose the wrong coin. If you choose not proper coins, you may experience the price to be difficult to increase quickly.

Bitcoin price during bearsih moment not stable yet and take opportunity with bigger profitable earn as short term trading.

Bitcoin price will never be stable whether it is in bearish or bullish market. However, when it is in bullish season, the price of Bitcoin easily increases significantly. Meanwhile in bearish season, the price of Bitcoin tends to decrease gradually. I think the different is on how significant the price change both in pump and dump.

Dropping under 60k is a very tough stuff and I understand why that disheartens some people, I know its not that easy to handle at all. But at the same time we should focus on how to make it work, because that would actually make us richer as well, even when it goes down. The DCA method that everyone suggests during this period is important and that would be very important because if you do DCA at this point then you are going to get a lot better. This is why I think the best way to further your future finance, is to keep investing when its lower, and wait for it to go up when you do something much better eventually.

Many hope that the price of Bitcoin will rise to $70k again, but the world economic conditions are not good, there is a lot of bad news circulating so the whales don't dare to increase the price of Bitcoin. those who have bought Bitcoin using the DCA method will make a profit. It is important to remember that Bitcoin price movements depend on circulating supply and demand in the market. So I make sure that currently the Bitcoin price is still cheap and there is still a chance to make a profit at a later time when the Bitcoin price rises again.

During the bearish period selling should be completely avoided because the price goes to dump so when you make a sale then you will be at loss and recovery of loss is not easy all the time. The Bearish period is just for buying some most successful coins which have the ability to turn green when the market enters into the bullish period.

Trading can be profitable during bearish season but only wise individuals can do this who focus primarily on learning after that he initiates trading but I think if someone does not find any good result from trading then he should prefer investment as it overcomes the tension of making sudden decisions.

In reality, not everyone thinks like that... sometimes we also meet people who are very afraid of bear market conditions, where their fear even reaches the level of fear of the market collapsing completely... so I am very sure that there are people who leave when a bear market is detected... they are afraid of bigger losses, without thinking about the opportunity to make a buyback.., believe me.. people like that still exist today.
