that is why we only need to invest the amount that we can afford to lose, because investing for long term really needs time and patience to have a bigger profit in the end.

I absolutely agree with you. I wasn't smart enough to realize it at the beginning of this year. I wanted to hold bitcoin and went with the third strategy, so now I lost like two thirds potentially. At the same time, there were other people who just sold at good price and then decided to buy when the price got really low. I wish I could do the same thing, but now is just too late. I guess, one learns on mistakes, so now I will still go with the third strategy till I am in zero and then I will switch to the second one.
The only problem with it, though, is that you can never be sure whether the price is going to go down. You can sell and the price will rise even more, so you'll regret it. I made this mistake once, when I bought ripple at $0.5 and sold at $1, while within a couple of weeks it cost $3.

Holding for long term isn't necessarily high risk, so long as you know what you're doing and the essential fundamentals are there, with regards to the token, it's actually the safest. This has been noted true by many fund managers, not just in the stock markets.

honestly I am not very good at trading and I just love to buy at a low price and save it for me to sell in the future. risk is always there, but that is my choice and holding for the long term is an alternative choice for people who can not trade. thank you, your writing is very helpful and easy to understand, especially to newcomers.

I think the best decision is to combine this three strategies . Usually investors prtfolio consist of 3-10 different coins , and each of them may require a speciall holding strategy . Sometimes you may whant to hold for a long-term , because you really believe this project will be on top in the future , but sometimes you just whant to make your 20-50% profit and make cash out .

If you bought good coins from top projects, your chance to get profit is much higher than from low-cap unknown projects. Make full research of project before to buy coins for long-term holding.

I prefer long term investment because I believe that the longer you wait, the good chance of acquiring potential profit. Flexible holding could only make you tempted to sell your coins even for a low increase but still it is considered profit but it was not maximize at all. There is a high chance of gaining good profit if your investment preference is in long term where it might get doubled or tripled in the coming years.

I prefer flexible detention, because although the profits are smaller but the velocity of money is fast, compared to that particular targeted detention. the velocity of money will be slow even if materially it may be bigger, but it takes extra patience to do it.

The C Strategy C appears to be more preferable and many investors have adopted this strategy. Good luck!

Well my strategy right now is C, I am holding good coins for a long term and know that they will their value with the time but this investment needs alot of patience. Your strategy B looks promising as well. I haven't trade in this way yet.

We have to withdraw money in some cases. You should make decisions based on the situation and your personal needs in order to optimize profit.

If let me choose, then I will choose C.
Because day trading is so difficult, it's not for me, so I think long-term holding is the most profitable way.

I like the strategy C. Long-term holding
But, what if when we need the money and the coins we hold have not reached the target?

My holding strategy is waiting for the opportunity to come

This is my strategy for coin holding, let’s have a look and let me know what you think.

I will divide into 3 sub-strategies:

A. Holding until a certain target is reached
For example, you buy BTC at the price of $3,000 and will only sell when it reaches $15,000. This is the most basic, yet the least effective strategy. If the price goes up to $14,800 and then drops, maybe you will have to wait another year. Who knows?

B. Flexible holding:
 This is, on the other side, the most effective strategy. This one gives priority to the amount of coin.To be specific, if you hold BTC, then your aim is to maximize the BTC amount you get. For example: You buy BTC at the price of $3,000 and sell when it increases to $4,500. Afterwards, use this money to get BTC, which is then priced at $4,000. Repeat the process again and again, and you can accumulate your BTC amount.
The key here is to remember: you are holding, not trading. Before deciding to sell at $4,500, you should be pretty sure that the price is gonna fall below that level in the time to come. It means that even if the price rises up to $10,000, but there is no sign of an upcoming decline (down to $9000, for example), then you shouldn’t sell.
However, if the price is currently $6,000, and anticipated to fall to $5,000, then it’s worth selling.
So, the thing is: only sell if you can buy at a better price. In case the price goes up after you sell, please buy again, even at a higher price. Frequent performance of trading (buying and selling) is not encouraged to limit such cases. However, if you are sure about a future drop in price, you shouldn’t miss the chance to rapidly increase your coin amount.

C. Long-term holding
This form is often applied for your trusted long-term coin/project. You can buy and wait until the market is saturated or when the trend becomes clearer. This is a true investment, constituting high risk and little chance of success. However, a good project will surely pay you back.
