As you probably read from our daily crypto news today, Bitcoin and the rest of the market are proving that Santa doesn’t exist (at least today) with their steep fall this Christmas. And while we should all cope with the losses of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Bitcoin Cash and other altcoins, it’s better to think of a strategy for investing in a bear market like this.
Below, we are listing the best tips to make most of the current bear market.
Shorting
First on our list is the technique known as short selling or “shorting” which happens when traders predict that a market is going to decline. If their prediction is correct, they benefit from it. If the market moves and the prices go down, traders can re-buy the asset (which will be cheaper) and make profits.
HODLing
Every trader learned what HODLing is this year, triggered by the downward trend of Bitcoin and other altcoins. And if you don’t know, ‘HODL’ basically means “Hold On For Dear Life” meaning that investors should not sell their coins even if the market goes deep in the red.
Buy Low, Sell High
Investors are drawn by profits. One of the best ways to make profits is to buy at lows and sell at highs. Now, even though no one knows if these are the bottom lows for the market, the risk is sometimes worth it.
Diversificate
Last but not the least is a strategy known as diversification, which basically revolves around buying more than one coin and diversifying your capital while keeping more cryptocurrencies in your wallet. This can increase the chances of making a right call.
Time to trade, folks.
