the market on holiday

[|MINER|]

As we are already aware, there will always be FUDS in the crypto market and usually they can easily spread in social media as people seem to be attracted to unconfirmed and speculative information that can affect their decisions either positively or negatively. As people who have been in this market for years, we are already experienced on this phenomenon and we can already know a FUD when we see one. Just the way I am seeing, FUDS actually add more excitement in the market though they can also lead some to make bad actions and that is something we should clearly get away from. This year am sure there will be more FUDS like an avalanche and we should be warned about it.

Well said mate. Lots of people having in trouble because of only the FUD effects from the social media. Impact I have also some experience in my previous time but currently I am try to skip these thing in my investment.
Even though I think if we really want to make profit from cryptocurrency investment we must have to think about the opposite of FUD not affect by the FUD.

If we hold the top coins, we don't actually need to be affected by FUD, because if there is a correction to the impact of FUD, we just wait, the coins will go up again.
and that's what I've been observing. Top coins have a good reputation.
for people who have been investing in crypto for a long time will be calmer and wait when there is FUD.

Correction and retracement, if we see it on the market, does not mean it is due to FUD. If you have heard some people say bad things about Bitcoin, this is not a correction or retracement; it is quite normal to see the price being corrected or retraced.
FUDs can cause panic among those who hold cryptocurrencies; if you are affected by these, I am sure you are among those who are rushing to sell your assets.
However, not all FUDs can affect all people; sometimes they use it as a signal to sell and buy later for a cheaper price. Traders are more aware of this because it provides another opportunity to buy at a lower price and then sell if it meets their target.

If you decide to trade and have a lot of time to do it, you can focus on trading. I also spend more time with my family and watch the market in between if I see a positive trend I will trade. Doing analysis takes time and focus because I am not very skilled in making analysis and am still learning.

I am also learning and am not very expert at making accurate predictions, but day by day I am improving as I learn to read candles, which I think was one of my big mistakes not to learn it before, I learned MACD recently again with more ideas about how it's higher high and lower low works and how exactly in different timeframes we can make better predictions along with Elliot wave and Fib.

I was trading on the basis of RSI and 4EMA before, which is still very efficient, but with these 3 to 4 extra indicators, our analysis becomes more accurate, and it also makes sense. Besides this, we must have the idea of high to see the volume and tracking whales must be in our list to.

Overall analysis surely take time that's why we must have more than 5 influencers on Twitter or on TG to get quick analysis of any coin they share and to make trade accordingly.

As usually, market have looks not so good since two week left before Christmast day and bitcoin have significant drop. Looks many holder sell their bitcoin assets for holiday and return nack to the market at the middle of next year.
Bitcoin drop until $92k last few hours ago but looks faster for recovering to higher price, indeed take longer time or not for bitcoin return back above $100k or not. But have two week moment left woth opportuni keep at downtrend moment or not behind how many time bitcoin get drop in this week.

Is it that long until mid-2025? I think this is too long, as we know the peak of the bullrun could be in 2025, but we don't know for sure when, and this is not only during the bullrun, every year in the fourth week of January the market starts to show signs of movement to become volatile again.

traditional markets like stocks and bonds usually close on christmas eve and the entire day of christmas the closing of other markets lead investors to focusing more on the crypto market which could be the explanation why crypto typically sees a surge in price during the holidays i do think that during the holidays investors can be more aggressive and really determined to make some money

what do you think is the overall mindset of an investor during this time of the year? do you tend to relax a bit during the holidays or do you work extra hard to make money and celebrate the holiday a little more festive? do you change anything in your approach during christmas and new year's?

Based on observations, the crypto market is not always on a friendly market trend when the festive season comes. We face down trend, for some reasons of the holidays, where big investors wants to take out profits and enjoy the holidays with their loved ones.

For me, I'm not a big investor or trader, so I use the season to fill some bags with the available cash at hand, while making the season fulfilling.

Yep. Now ,for example, we see a dip due to US news about the Silk Road and how they would slowly dump about 6,5 billion of $ in BTC down onto the market.
Lots of news and opportunities coming right up from the start of the year.. Better start filling the bags now than later.

I agree with you with facts that investors can be more aggressive because the pressure to make some extra money to enjoy the holiday is there which can make some investors increase their risks

There are certain times in this crypto trading that require us to anticipate significant price changes, such as during the Christmas and New Year holidays.
Many people sell their cryptocurrency assets for the holidays, if we understand this will happen. Then we must anticipate it to reduce the risk of loss that we will experience, or we can take this moment to get maximum profit.

Investors become aggressive? Honestly, I just know this term, so far I only know that investor becomes greedy. 
Of course, any investor want to get extra money to fulfill their life necessities. It is not only for spending in holidays. However, it will be too risky if investors have too high hope for extra money. Moreover if they set unrealistic target for gaining profits.

FUD always becomes a problem that makes the market drop very easily. Yes, because in fact there are still many people who are easily fooled by FUD. And what's worse, this is sometimes favored by whales who really want to make the market drop first to scoop up more at an easier price. So, again, the victims of FUD and losses are people who are easy to panic sell, and also new investors who sometimes don't have much capital. And I personally have also felt it at the beginning of entering crypto investment, there is a fear of the end when the market suddenly drops in just a few hours.

If I tell that true then I have to say that not many people there are  most of the people were easily get affected by FUD on the market and if just check the previous FUD affect most of there are many people those what thinking that the bull season has been ended. But unfortunately or fortunately whatever we say it market is recovering itself and yes I also think there are more way to go in this bull season nothing is over yet.

People who are easily affected by FUD are retail traders who are always panicked by the state of the market right now.
When the FUD has spread then there will be more selling pressure going on and this is an opportunity for whales to start buying cheaply.

This kind of manipulation has been arranged by whales so that they get a cheaper price, and then if it is enough, there will be an increase that makes everyone FOMO and start buying again.
It is a market game and whoever can survive and buy at a lower price will get a lot of profit.

Whales are I think one of those who manipulate news for fundamentals like FUD.
Investors and retail traders are affected to this that would start to panic sell.
As you can see on major support area at around $92k these whales manage to buy large amount at that area that push the price momentum to go uptrend again just like what happen this week.
That is why if we see FUD that is a good opportunity for small retail trader to buy cheap if you manage to buy at $91k you already made profit today.

but the reality is that when FUD has really spread and the price is very low, retail traders are running out of money to buy at the lowest price, this also happened to me when I was sure that the price was low enough I bought it, but it kept dropping to a price that I didn't predict.

Money management is really needed to be able to buy at a low price and also have to know where the bounce will be desired by the whales.
Thinking like whales and following in their footsteps may be a lesson I have to understand this time.
