[dansus021]

How do you trade a Bearish Market? If you trade in derivative product then the answer is obvious you short a lot and long a little since in the futures you basically trade a contract then you can short some coin and can still make money from it.

I hear from youtube that pro trader is dancing in the market whether the market is bullish or bearish  but for me as a newbie trader and lot do spot trade Im only buy in spot and waiting maybe short but with little margin

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?

Trading competition definitely requires maximum skill. Trading cannot be done with little experience or skill. I have been thinking of trading bearish market for a long time but never got involved in trading. Whenever I thought about trading, I was distracted by the randomness of the market. I used to trade a long time ago when the market was very good. At first I had a lot of profit but due to market dumping my trading is still stuck. But lately the market is pumping a bit so my trading is going towards recovery. That's why I want to say that people who think that trading is very easy I think they are always wrong that trading is not an easy process trading is a very risky process.

The way traders do make profit even during a bearish market trend is by scalping, majorly used by day traders. Just all about entering and exiting the market on a very close range of time and taking the profit that follows.

Some may even place timing on 5mins and enter the market at the opening price of the candlestick and sell at the closing price of the candlestick just within a 5mins interval.

I see this as a strategy used by day traders, swiftly taking profits at a very short interval of time knowing fully well that the market cannot be accurately predicted, and can either break down lower in price or fly higher as the case may be.

What do you mean with dancing? Do they always get profits whether in bearish and bullish season? I think everyone also can keep earning profits in each season, but we must know how to trade effectively. I prefer spot trading because it is safer, we don't need to feel afraid although the prices of crypto coins fluctuate. For newbies, spot trading is also very recommended, it is the best trading type that newbies can do.

Well, For traders to achieve consistent profits during the bearish and the bullish season, they need to undertake the trading risks cautiously. One of these is the portfolio diversification approach whereby instead of specializing within one class of crypto assets, other form of assets with lower correlation are incorporated. This may lower the effect of price oscillation from one coin and, therefore, stabilize the whole portfolio’s value. Take for example, it is also good to set a take profit and stop loss point so that one may not lose substantially when the market is against the projections.

Besides diversification, doing technical and fundamental analysis often helps to enhance your trading skills effectively. Knowledge of specific trends in a particular market and investors’ attitudes and the presence of factors affecting the value of cryptocurrencies helps when making a decision. To avoid missing the best time to enter or exit a trading position traders are also supposed to look forward to the moving averages, the volumes of trade and Relative Strength Index (RSI) to guide them. All in all integrating all these aspects traders can bolster the techniques and even can earn profits more often than not irrespective of it being an ever volatile market.

I do think he is talking about profits / successes of the positions while trading And, yeah, I agree - spot is the best in terms of the stability of the investment made, though many traders trade with perps intact, which is a bit riskier, but it holds its pros with it too if you know what you are doing. Me myself - I do like spot more too.

In fact, as we look for the right approach and right market we can gain more effectiveness of trading; or even if it happens to be bullish or bearish. Since stop-loss levels are determined individually it is possible to be flexible in changing it because different traders behave in different ways concerning risks and certain shifts on the market.

This is very true, I like to reach a stop loss when it no longer has its effect, but rather use it as a take profit, in this case things are always much better in that case, there are exchanges or brokers that allow it to change, in other occasions not, I like exchanges that allow those freedoms, and to enter the same operation with more money and maintaining the position, the crypto exchange that allows it and that I have experience in that is Bitfinex, but because I have experience there, I have not operated that way in binance, but I know that it has it.

Each trade has a different strategy and has a decision to change the initial plan due to market changes, so the response of each trader is different. I also sometimes change plans and strategies because market conditions change, this is in accordance with our experience and ability to see and analyze market movements.

I think Because of the constantly changing environment it becomes crucial to be flexible when reacting to the situations in the market. Flexibility makes it easier for us to remain relevant since circumstances in the market change from time to time. Trading is not a game of following a set plan, in fact, it’s about how we adapt to a novel set of circumstances in the market.

Synomializing the process of changes means being able to undertake more purposeful steps in the right direction. In this way, all decisions can become the foundation for better results when merging our knowledge and experience with the job. Adaptation of this process is a normal process of strategy, which helps achieve the set objectives.

This type of freedom that allows for the setting of a stop loss that can also work as the take profit does afford us better positioning in a volatile market. Peculiarities like these, which some exchanges provide, help venture to turn the advantageous and hand extra range in approach.

For instance the exchange which you use allow such freedom, and of course is very helpful to those of us who would wish to maximize our positions and the use of capital more so in managing it. However, new conditions in some other platforms, for example Binance, can reveal other opportunities that can expand our approach in the future.

To get profit by doing this trade in bullish season we must gain good experience about the trade so that we can do something good. Some times due to some wrong decision we don't get good profit from the trade but most of the time I trade in such a way that even loss occurs.  Think of trading keeping these things in mind so as not to incur extra losses. We always have to be careful not to put money at risk due to wrong decisions. I think spot trading is very safe which is why I do spot trading most of the time.  Newbies who want to trade will find it much easier and easier to understand if they do spot trading.

Overall, making profit in trading is not an easy and does not involve only waiting for the right time, the right experience and the right choices but the traders must also accept the chances of losing. We have to always risk being enlightened by each choice we make, especially when such choices are wrong so as to be a little more advanced in determining the subsequent choices. That is true: compared to other types of trading, spot trading is relatively easier and carries less risks, which surely would be attractive for those who consider security a key factor in any transaction.

But we must not be over confident and relax on capital management even though spot trading may seem safer. For a first time player, slow accumulation of knowledge about the market and even basic will provide us with the capacity to make most of the right decisions that can have a profit bearing more so avoiding a loss situation.
