30-50% you can use for trading if you know what you're doing (use stop losses and don't be too greedy).
Just don't go all-in you can get burned

You should keep at least 50% of your holdings.

I would say that long term investing is the only way to be profitable long term. When you buy dips and sell highs you risk that the new high will never come. If you don't know true value of the asset you are buing you are merely speculating that someone will pay more for possibly worthless asset. Bitcoin is only a way to exchange goods not an asset to invest in. It's simmilar to buying USD on the dips - nobody is really profitable doing that, so what is so different when buying and selling bitcoin?
It all depend on your trading style because the two systems are good although day trading is tiring while holding is easy once you get your fundamentals and technicals right. But me i prefer to buy at bottom and exit at near resistance.
Since i am always lost when trading, now i am started to become bagholder. At the same time, i am improving my trading skill with read many trading blogs and sites.
I would just like to hear your opinions, Which is more profitable, Day Trading where you can profit through buying the dips and selling when it pumps repeatedly, or Long term HODLing where you buy the dip and only sell it when it goes up 5 to 10 times its price value?
It depends on the trader and what coin you are holding, Even small profits can be big when you save it all, Its all about strategy and how hard you work to monitor the market daily.
Holding, investing- thats what I prefer. I do day trading just for fun from time to time.
Day trading seriously needs a lot of experience or else we will lose our money. But you are saying you will do day trading for fun. it is up to you mate i think you are ready to afford your loss. I am not ready so i go for holding.

I think it depends upon the recuirments and conditions of the trader that what he has and what he want .Here you are saying for the profit that is maximum in which out of them .
Here in my opinion long term.( For 3 to 4 month rarely ) is a better trading timing , Because in such types of the trading we have full chance to make buy and sell easily without going in sudden work ( like in the case of pumping or anything else .
But if the trader is going to make trading of du trading then surely here I can say that it will be profitable always for that person because even 1% is a profitbale thing because in the day trading usually people needed more amount of bitcoin .
I do both. Actually I do some short term trades in coins with great news, but I also always use a stop loss limit.
Without it I fear that the coin goes down extremely in a short time (like clam did) and I have to watch the price every few minutes :3.

Both methods are profitables in my opinion. I prefer holding but I do trading too, and I generate good income from both ways. Holding is more profitable in the long run, while trading is useful and give us fast earning. I think it is better to try them both because there is always some risk involved either with trading or holding, because the price is volatile.
Trading is only profitable if you know what you are doing, and that is the biggest problem many people just see the profits they can get and they start to trade immediately and this is a mistake, you need to learn first how to trade and test your skills if you are not good enough then it is better to remain a holder than to lose all your money when trading.

Both will make you earn profit in common then why not do both. Do trading and save even the small amount of profit that you will earn so it can still grow big. In another side, The profit that you earn on holding your coins is depending in the amount of capital that you have, So i prefer that you work hard and do both at the same time.

Both ways are profitable but it depends on the level of your knowledge and skills. Day trade is quite hard to master but it is the best way and it is the most profitable if you compared it to just holding. The profitability of HODL'ING purely depends on future developments and potential of the coin, so it requires many time before you can get profits.

Both, is profitable and depends on your capital amount to trade ,Somehow, day trading is more hard to do if you have no good skills on it it it a very risky game ,you are like trading of war which in any moment it can dump hard or pump hard . Long term holding is a sure profit if you invested in a Altcoin that have a big potential in the next months or years. Day trading and holding your coins to earn more profit both will allow to you gain bitcoins. It will only be depending on how you handle your time and how hard you are going to work each day to earn more profit for your income.
I'm just thinking about how to accumulate profits after daily calculations, day trade is important because I have to stay focused on factual news and graphics, I'm not happy to be late and lose momentum as the market moves so fast. But I still hold some coins for the long term even if only a few.

Day trading is for experts who have spent lot of time on trading sites but for newbie day trading is always an risk of loosing money as if he see price dropping he will easily get panic and sell his coins at low price so if you are new to trading world then the best choice for you is to invest in good altcoins and hold it till its price goes higher.
I agree, if not having a way of trading will bring losses better understand how to trade and have a good strategy to get good results.
if you don't have a strategy it will harm you
I am new to trading so cannot afford to take risk of going for day trading as it will only bring loss for me if I have invested in wrong coin at a wrong time so I believe in investing in the best coin with good volume and will have patience to hold it till I don't make enough profits out of it and later on may be will take risk of going for day trading.
As most of people here are stating, it should be in between.
I personally hold 75-80%, and daily trade 20-25%.

i just holding and keep it up.i know hold is better. example 1year ago bitcoin price very low.and now bitcoin price day by day up.so i hold some btc .
Yup, I think that you should user Hold Strategy. I heard that there are some good news for Cryptocurrency recently such as South Korea starts regulating and taxing income Bitcoin. Therefore, you should buy Bitcoin now and wait for the rising of the price. good luck to you.
Usually, once I hit profit on a trade, I take part of the profit to buy the coin when it gets to the dip point and store for long term and there are also some coins that usually have some pretty good spikes too once in a while, for good profit.
However, for someone who may not have the time for daytrading, HODLing is just the best thing to do, or long term trading.
Yeah if your money is in bitcoins then holding is the best choice as price will surely increase in future and that would be the right time to sell your bitcoins and take the profits whereas day trading involves higher risk of loosing money as you never know where price will land in next couple of minutes or hours and if price starts falling then you will surely get panic attack which will lead to sell your coins at lower price.
