For me it's easier to make money during a bear market if you can analyse the market yourself. Because when a dump happens, then we can see a recovery as well. It means if you don't dare to accumulate during a bear market, then you can make money when it starts recovering the price. For that you must have patience. Otherwise you can't make money and may become panicked. Also during a bull market, it is possible to make money if you are active on the market.
It is more easier to earn money in a bull market than make profit in a bear market, because in a bear market, pressure is bigger and except if you are very experienced with this market, and prepare your psychology, invesment capital to personal finance very well, you will have more chance of panic sell in a bear market than buy dips for profit.
Another rule during bear market is saying no with margin and futures trading, because you are never able to know how deep price will dip so if you leverage with your trading position wrongly, your capital will be liquidated.
For both, earning from bull and bear, you should have enough patience and be proactive in the market. Unless you know what's going to happen, you won't be a successful trader. Most probably you may lose from the hype; entering hyped tokens may dump immediately. You have to research the market conditions; it will help to understand the situation and decide what to do now.
If it is investment or spot trading, patience can help as even you stuck with a bad entry in a bear market, you can patiently wait a long time like several months, two years for a market bottom out, recovery and beginning of a next bull market. It's big condition and it's also very vital for your trading capital, only trade with spot.
