Market Uptrend vs Market Downtrend

[Bobcrypto]

The crypto market only expresses two lines of movement/trend; The Uptrend (Green Candles) and The Downtrend (Red candles).
The Basic knowledge in trading states that the uptrend (Green Candles) express the purchasing power of buyers motivating the upward movement of the market and on the other hand, the downtrend (Red candles) express the power of the sellers resulting to the downward movement of the market.

From my point of view of the Crypto market (though not professional yet, just an observation) the trend/movement of different assets based on a low time frame (15mins), I observe that the market exhibits more of downtrend (Red candles) compared to an uptrend (Green candles).

Do you think the market trends more downwards than upwards??

Crypto market has the volatility and that make it very difficult. Some times it goes on up Trend and sometimes it goes on downtrend. Now it's your point of view how you just saw the market like you took only 15mins low time frame and here may be you can thinking about that the market trends more downwards than upwards but if you just view it on the bigger time frame like the year or the month you will saw just we were in upward market. Because Bitcoin is limited it has only 21 million maximum supply, day by day the price of it will increase it is also the reality. So in my opinion we were in upward market all the time in case of bitcoin.

The low time frame(LTF) is basically used by day, and swing traders who will always take advantage of a slight price uptrends movements to close their positions or Take profit, while the the High time Frames(HTF) for example, one week, one month, are commonly used by analyst's to forecast the market uptrends and downtrends prices movements for a long periods.

Nevertheless, the market has been experiencing a side ways movements for over six months and i think that market price cannot go up continuously, people will always take profit at intervals, and this will make price to experience a downtrends movements at certain periods.

In fact, if the market always moved in an uptrend, there would be no value in trading. And in reality, it is never possible for the market to move only in an uptrend because traders trade to book profits and for this, if they buy a coin, they have to sell it and the impact it has on the market when they sell it leads the market to a downtrend. So there will be up and down both trend in market we have to decided where we should do our trade by our skills.

Yes, a down/uptrends trends market is necessary on the crypto market because traders/investors must book profit, and this is the demand and supply principles playing out on a regular intervals. There are traders/investors that must sell, that is, a supply entrance into the market , while there are traders/investors that will buy these supply that is entering at certain price rates overtimes.
In fact, there must be ups and downs constantly, it is a normal market movements, which involves buying and selling of assets everyday.

Of course, because most of the coins in the market are not stable coins, so the crypto can be used for optimal trading in various ways. Now for the market up and down that often occurs, how come the conditions are like that. And whether we can take advantage of it or not, it will return to each individual strategy. Because it does require various considerations to optimize market up and down in trading in order to get the most optimal profits.

It can't be possible, probably it's like that on the time you checked but I am sure the results will be different when you check on the different date or month.

Usually the price goes upwards in the long run which means the price has to rise more than it's falling which proves my point that it's moving up more than the down on average of all time.

Actually, it's quite difficult to say whether this market is uptrend or downtrend. Because every time I answer this question, to be honest I need to see the market, at least check on CMC or market exchanges. Yes, because the market is currently so predictable in its development. It could be that in a few hours, the market becomes uptrend and then downtrend quickly. This up and down condition during this recent time often happens. Because there are still some FUDs and also sometimes good news influences each other in a close time. So, what is important for us is not to be too influenced by the current market conditions if our target is for long-term holding.

Yep. A broader perspective is needed - otherwise, we may be inclined to see the market on a smaller scale of things, whereas the broader trend would be the exact opposite.

Trends continue to change quite quickly and make the market unstable.
indeed many FUDs and News appear almost simultaneously and that affects how market trends occur.

Some time ago Bitcoin was already on the verge of going up and exceeding the price of $100k again, but then bad news came about the Bybit hack which became the biggest hack of all time, this made the market even more unstable until now.

For long-term investment you should indeed look at the market trend for the long term and don't get affected by this short-term trend, But take advantage of this downtrend to further increase your investment assets, it will be better and more profitable.

Well when I analyze the market, I don't see a downward trend, I only see setbacks that are natural in every market, then when there is a change in temporality it is obvious that the volatility is greater and it can be said that for each temporality for me the Analysis Changes , it is much more Violent, not to mention when scalping, it is much easier to follow Certain routines, forms, a Trading very given to chartism, but that is what I have Seen , even if strategies and tools are Applied , that is what I have seen.

      -      If the market only goes in one direction, it cannot be called trading, that's why it is called trading because there is buy and sell, this is what has been customary and has also become a tradition in the trading industry for a long time in fact and most communities here know this.

So if you buy that means there are other traders who made a profit or sold at a loss, that could be the scenario. And if you sell in trading, that just means that there are also some who made a profit and some who lost.

Many bad news came make bitcoin easily get downtrend moment again after having opportunity recovery back above $100k, since Bybit hack cases over 400k ETH make bitcoin difficult raise to higher price and downtrend for cryptocurrency market most easily than recovery. I think take longer time for recovering and bitcoin or altcoin back again to higher price, firstly most important for Ethereum raise up again to higher price and its most important for altcoin back to new ATH price depend how bitcoin will on the raise up way or down.

That what I actually said in my post and what I want to mean.
Even all kinds of trading have more or less volatility market like if we just say about the real life goods market then there you will also see some volatile situation and if there is no volatility there will also not seen profit that much any more specially when we talk about the good profit in crypto trading then the more high market has own volatility the more you will have the profit if you have the proper skills and fund. But here also should remind the loss amount will be high on the others side.

You are right people are mostly invovled in future trading and they either want to make quick money or want to lose it all in short they want to make analyze and educated gambling on crypto via future trading although that's two different things.

If they will not stop shorting the price of a token then the chance for a market to go down might be lower because if most of the public would want a coin to go down then it will go down, and who is making more profit once a coin go down, short traders, so once they will be less, the market would pump more if I am not wrong about this logic as I can be because it is just a simple observation.

As we all know there are other numerous factors to this.

Crypto is a volatile asset and the market will always move up and down because that's what is keeping investors and traders active in the market. I believe that most of us are already use to the price movement and it's a norm. Only newbies with little knowledge might panic and sell or get discouraged from investing.

For those who have been investing in crypto for a long time, understand the volatile crypto market. Traders take advantage of the volatility of the crypto market to make a profit. And this is the added value of crypto.
But for those who are not traders, they can become holders and don't need to care about the volatile market.
