> Did you sell any bitcoin you owned when up 70% and, if so, have we reached a bottom when it is optimal to buy back in?

This is the ultimate investing question. What signals a top or a bottom? How do I sell just before the price falls and buy just before it climbs back up? Is there even an answer? There must be since there are literal trading bots out there making millions.

If you put a regular amount into the S&P500 you'll make millions over time, no need to be a bot.

At some point of course that has to end, as everything based on exponential growth does.

That's low risk but inefficient because it fails to exploit market movements. People say the markets are unpredictable but somehow people managed to automate trading. There must be some method to it.
