What are your thoughts on Quarter 2

[TomPluz]

My prediction for Bitcoin's price is for it to range between $90K-$95K, and I hope it reaches $100K by the end of the second quarter. This isn't an analysis, but rather a hope.

Yes, based on hope, wish and a prayer maybe, I am looking forward for Bitcoin and the rest of the cryptocurrency club to move positively forward this Quarter 2 of the year. There is no question that Quarter 1 seems more of a disappointment to many of us and we are hoping that it was just a a little setback to a better 3 month-period ahead. There comes a time when we have no choice but to be hopefull...be positive in the sea of red waves...and that time is NOW. May the big market force be with Bitcoin so there can be  dramatic rebound just ahead of us.

Investors will not smile in this second quarter of the year and even the third quarter too but it will be better than the second quarter and in the fourth quarter that will be good for investors so anyone who is interested to invest should do so now that the price is low. Whenever the price goes down, purchase any amount you can afford at that time. And don't wait for the dip.

In fact, my hope has increased significantly after watching Bitcoin's performance in the past few days.

With global stock markets collapsing due to Trump's decision to raise tariffs, all markets and exchanges plummeted. After Bitcoin fell below $75K, it quickly rebounded to around $80K. This is truly an amazing performance given the difficult conditions facing all global markets and the widespread panic.

This reflects the confidence Bitcoin has gained as a safe haven and long-term store of value.

If the investors won't have a reason to smile in the next quarter, why they should invest now? 
I don't know why you are too easy to conclude that there is no reason for investor to smile in the second quarter and third quarter. It is not easy to predict the price movement of Bitcoin. Even if we were experiencing bad market in Q1, it doesn't mean we also will have bad market condition in Q2, Q3, or Q4. I personally assume that the market will gradually increase in Q2 and Q3. For Q4, we may see the bearish season begins. However, this is all the prediction only. The market and price movement can change surprisingly at any time.

I'm not sure if Q2 is not great time for crypto this year. In this cycle of the market, if I'm not wrong we are in the advancing phase which means that the bullish market or up trend. After the advancing the next phase will be distribution. As what I had remember in the past, before the advancing phase would end the altseason must occur first which is probably happen this year. If it will not happen this year, then obviously the market didn't repeat the history.

in the first quarter of the year (2025) the price of bitcoin was $100+k and now we are in the second quarter of the year and the price is $83+k it has not hit $90k which means bitcoin is still down though all depends on the time of the investors. As for me I bought at the time of $108k so I am expecting $200+k to see another bull run as for now I am on my bear run in compared to the time I bought but from the time of bought my first set of bitcoin in 2022, I am on the Bull run. This is how bitcoin is all about, you don't investment once but in section by section so that at all time you are onnthe side of gaining.

[kulkhan]

It's rare to see Bitcoin's price remain low for four consecutive months, so I think we'll see a price shift in the coming months. It all depends on how bad the economic situation is in the coming months.

I think you are right. I also think bear market is coming for next few months. We know now a days world economy is very unpredictable and risky. US president Donald J Trump taking many critical decision which is harmful for economy.

So i think in future economic situation will bad. Because US president Donald J Trump’s tax policy creating negative impact on world economy even crypto-currency. So i think Quarter 2will be bear.

There are indeed such events where we thought the price of Bitcoin would continue to rise but it didn't. And because we bought, instead of making a profit we lost. That is to be expected when investing in crypto, no matter what analysis we do, there are times when the price movement will not go the way we want. We should just always remember to avoid FOMO because the opportunity in the market never runs out.

This is the beginning of Q2. Currently, there is a 2% increase. I am expecting to see a positive outcome this Q2 since, based on a daily time frame, the price is already touching the previous ATH last year. It acts as a support area based on what I see. However, there's no break of structure currently to the upside we are still on the down trend move based on the daily time frame but we already see some weakness in the downtrend. It's getting weaker, but it's still below the 200 EMA and SMA. Let's see if we break that level or the above $86k level; then we might see a positive result before the end of this second quarter.

What I want to advise is don't trade in the short term; be patient and always trade only in quality trades. You must be disciplined. Swing trading is better than doing scalping because there is lots of noise in a short time frame compared to long time frame.

I totally get your point, especially now that there are lots of uncertainties in the market, especially from the disappointment of the first quarter. This is where every trader needs some form of patience and discipline to navigate through the market. However, I still believe that not every trader is good and skilled in using swing trading to their advantage. Some do well with scalping, while some can apply both strategies depending on the market condition.

Like I always recommend, traders should understand their personality and risk tolerance. No matter the strategy they choose to go for, proper risk management and consistency should be the top priority. If they understand how to manage risks effectively during this period, they will be profitable in the end

To those traders who used S&R as their main strategy they believe that the Bitcoin will rise up since it only touches the support but didn't break it. In many cases, there are fake bounce in the market, we thought that the price will go higher but it's just a manipulation and break the support. The bounce back of the price that we saw in the market is not the type of bounce back that I've been waiting for. I don't think if the market was ready to make a new high this time or we expect for lower price.

[Rubel007]

It will be difficult to determine which direction the market will move at this time. Because the market is going through some uptrend and  downtrend at this time. The market is moving between 84k and 88k, which is why it is not easy to determine whether it will be bearish or bullish. I hope that if the global situation remains stable, we will be able to see a bullish movement in the upcoming Q3. Although there is no specific timing for this, it can be assumed that the market will see a positive movement during that period.

That's banks and big players who do liquidate all possible stop-losses. Usually retail traders put their SL at the end of the candlestick on the support area. Experienced traders don't enter like that; they wait for a signal for reversal. If it touches the support area, sometimes they wait for a breakout of the trend or a change of structure. If it happens, they are going to enter, and their stop-loss is below the last bearish candle below the support zone.
There's ups and downs on the current market which is sign of consolidation. Big players, or whales, are just clearing out retail traders we should be smart than them that is why sometimes they suggest putting your entry where people usually put their stop-loss because big players they manipulate them a bit to hit all possible liquidations, including stop-loss.

Manipulation is pretty common it happens daily in crypto that's why you don't overtrade. Always keep your stop-loss tight. If you enter where people put their stop-loss, then that's your counter solution for banks and big players, but I don't think it would be a good solution for this.
We are trading against other trader so we must think what they also think before we enter.
I am going to wait for breakouts and check for higher time frames. If it's oversold or overbought, that would be a signal, but I always wait for reversal patterns and breakouts for entry.

[Mr. Magkaisa]

Personally, like most, I expected the first quarter of this year to be bullish, but it was disappointing. This isn't surprising, as the market usually goes against most expectations.

In any case, I expect the second quarter to be positive, despite the negative first quarter. My prediction for Bitcoin's price is for it to range between $90K-$95K, and I hope it reaches $100K by the end of the second quarter. This isn't an analysis, but rather a hope.

           -    I know I'm also disappointed because I really thought that the rally in the price of bitcoin would continue in the market in the first quarter of 2025 but the opposite happened and it's something that disappointed others because they were left hanging by their expectations.

But what happened was the unexpected but even so we still had the opportunity to implement dca tools on the assets that we are saving in this era, they say everything has a good reason that what we think is negative always has a positive replacement in the future.

Although there is no specific timing for this, it can be assumed that the market will see a positive movement during that period.

I think it is no longer very difficult to understand the direction of the market. Since Bitcoin crossed $90k again, I'm sure we will return to the green market anymore. As long as the price of Bitcoin can survive above $90k in the end of this month, I'm sure we will have uptrend in the next month. You must know that Bitcoin isn't moving around $84k to $88k anymore, just forget this. 

I really hope we will have green market in Q2-Q3. Then we may have red market again in Q4. So, just prepare our Bitcoin and altcoins. We don't need to panic of the market situation.
