I will if only I really need the money, for example an emergency.
Hence, I prefer to hodl and use it in my day trades.

It depends on situation. I do a lots of analysis first. If it looks like there are possibilities of more growth i often try to hodl a percentage for future.

Lets take the following example. You buy BTC at 6k and it goes up to 8K. Do you sell 100% of it or do you sell 75% and keep 25% in BTC.

What are your opinions / tactics?

I will sell whole it and buy it again when its price go down. Because according to my observing, after the uptrend will be the downtrend. Why you don't sell it with 20% profit, this is really a good profit to sell all
Actually each person has their own target how much they will sell theirs. In my opinion, to get 100% profit is not easy so when i get 100% then i will sell it all. I also agree that when its bullish so bearish will come but also its not always. In this case buy when its drop is the best idea.

For me it depends on how much I believe and trust my holdings. Sometimes I sell half and keep on holding the other half or I can sell 75% of my holdings it just depends on how I feel of my holdings. Selling half and keeping half is not a bad tactic at all just make sure you are holding the right one with a lot of future.

personally, I will sell 75% of the btc that I have because I think this is a great opportunity to make a big profit. therefore I will use it well. as a crypto lover we must be able to use the crypto world well because if we use it properly we will get the satisfactory results.

Any one ?

Sell the half of it and hold the 50% because right now, all we need to do is to hold altcoins because theres a tendency that those coins will hit the high price soon, specially now that ber month is coming, bitcoin tends to flactuate its price

one thing I learned from the expert he always suggest to keep small portion when you already in profit, but I think its depends on the coin and the market situation, if the coin still got chances to go up then I will still keep a few of it, but if the coin is being pumped then I will sell it all, usually if a strong coin I will still keep small part of it

That's a huge gain for me so i am selling it 100%, after selling it, I will use part of the proceed to invest into another potential coin and use the reaming to set my order lower in order to re-buy the coin again.

What are your opinions / tactics?

It's a volatile market, you never know when it will go up or when it will go down, so it's a good idea to always keep a portion of your coin and not sell it all, I always keep 50% of the portion when selling in the bull run and buy more at the dip, this method is profitable as long as you are holding your good coin you will always have a chance for ptofit.

Yes, I don't like to take risk and later get depressed or lose my cool when I make loss. For people who have these tendencies it is better to sell the whole lot rather than holding. When price goes down you can invest again if you are not happy with your previous profit.

that is true but if prices continue to rise and it will make us more disappointed and I prefer to sell some and look back at price movements and if the color tends to flush, then I will sell it quickly and buy it back at a lower price again

It totally depends on what your financial goals are.

If your goal is to make a couple thousand dollars extra, then yes, of course I would sell it.
but if my goal is to earn a substantial amount, say 100,000usd or more, than it would be much different.

In that case, it is best to take advantage of crypto's volatility in price.
here's a simple example:

You bought btc at 10k, it rises to 12k, you sell it all for cash and keep that cash in a seperate bank account so you don't spend it.
Wait a couple weeks or month btc crashes down to 9k.
Then you take the 12k that you earned and use it all to buy btc at the new 9k price.

Very simple tactic that increases your capital at a steady pace; you bascially want to steadily increase the overall amount of crypto you have.
Then, you can eventually aim for a huge future selloff when you reach your financial goals.

I will sell all the coins I hold if I have already made a profit, and I will buy a new coin and hold it until I get more profit.

What are your opinions / tactics?
In my case, I have a trading account in binance if I get 33.33% profit by buying bitcoin at 6k$, I will take 100% profit. Then place an order again.

Also I have coins for long term that's not in my exchange account and will only sell it at 100% above profit.

Yes, I generally do something like what you are mentioning, however I think that most of the profits I am getting I am tempted to invest it all again, I don't know, I think that is the best way to make even more profits.

I am planning to sell my coins during next pump, so I have to be better prepared for the next bull run. It was a mistake to hodl all my altcoins during the last pump in the beginning of the 2018, because I lost a good chance to make a profit.
In my, strategies to avoid losses of coin I halves my earnings, I currently hold for a short term because my intention is to earn wuick profit and not hodl for a long time because we can't predict what will happen.

The tactics I will use is that I will sell 50% of it and retain the remaining 50% that way I will not lose much should in case the price keeps going up, but if it dips, I have already collected some profit, so I will do it in such a way, that I will gain both ways.

I am into long term investing. I usually set a price target for my coins and won’t sell until it reach the price target. This strategy is good for me because I won’t miss out on the maximum potential of the coins.

Well no. That will be a very silly move. It is better to save a portion of it to invest it further and we can do whatever we want to do with the rest of the profit. Selling it all is a dicey move.
