Which one you choose most? and Why? Just sharing ideas.

I'm a hodler - holding on for dear life! It's a fun ride, Bitcoin's future has yet to arrive and I intend to be a participant when it does.

Trading is a tough thing, when you're winning you believe you can't be beat so you keep letting the plays ride. Then one day you do get beat and you double down or keep going again because you're sure the tides will change. It usually all comes down to the gambling mentality.

I agree with your opinion. And I am also a Holde
r. To be a cryptotrader who deals with short trade, one must have a gambling mentality.

Once we invest we expect profits in return, in envesting a btc put in mind that it is not always profits.. As we all know that cryptocurrency is volatile so take it as a win or lose game, so invest an amount which you can afford to lose don't expect to much profits.

Some people invest in BTC for long period of time with an expectation of large amount. And some people invest for short period of time with an aim to short gain by using the volatility. Which one you choose most? and Why? Just sharing ideas.

I would select the two. Holding bitcoin for a long period of time really pays off and I experienced how my capital grew and benefits me and my family. Also if I have more time I will do some day trading since there is a huge opportunity to earn big if you are skilled enough to play in trading. Thus both of them is good and its just a matter of choosing what you want. For me I choose both.

I chose to be a long term holder and there are times that I'm also shorting if there's a need.
Depending on everyone's situation. You promised yourself that you'll hold for more than 5 years but you don't have anything left on your savings and there's a need to spend so you'll use your very last resort and that is to sell for quick and short term profit.

Its what the situation tells us to do, but as much as possible having other coins to do day trading as with bounty rewards can give a big impact on having a way to manage to earn while holding. It just a matter of what coin to release and to stick with.

You can do that if you think it's better, more profitable and you are doing good that way. Holding while trading those bounty rewards is normal today so the HODLING only applies during the market dips.
I trade but not with bounty rewards, I'll take portion and riding those coins that has nice volume so there's a sure sell and buy orders for it.
I won't gamble to those low valued coins and just pray it will rise.

Well i am new in bitcoin but i think long term holding is good because in order to get good return from bitcoin you have to hold for long term and plus this what i have heard from people who bought bitcoin since 2012 .They say You need to have long term planning for bitcoin. Just think when those people bought in bitcoin in starting they must have hold it in order to get good return now .

I have both short-term and long-term expectations for this technology. My short-term expectations would be that the price would gradually increase over time for me to day-trade on a upwards curve , up to a point where I can reach my long-term goal to sell at a huge profit.

This is the only way to make small profits on your way up to the Moon. ^smile^

Actually I am doing both, I have long term investments and I also do trading, but just for the sake of the topic if I need to choose one I will choose buy and hold strategy. Why because it is less risky and you do not need to spend a lot of time analyzing charts/indicators. You do not to stay on your computer/gadget to check the prices.

If investing in Bitcoin at the moment is difficult to expect to return to Bitcoin become true. Bitcoin prices are too high for all Altcoin, too high a rate to block the growth of Bitcoin and make it slow to double in a short time. Hoping for Bitcoin, it's hard to be realistic.

I expect a big return in Bitcoin, because I believe Bitcoin will keep on rising in the future, so I don't aim for short term gain, it's too unpredictable and consuming too much energy to keep on watching the price, I believe something big will come out if I hold it for long term

Personally, lately I have not sold bitcoin at all. I had some problems in the past, it made me sell the most. Now I have changed the strategy. I keep bitcoin for a long time and trade different altcoins to have money now. People who are successful in trade always make me respect them. I hope my investment in bitcoin is a rich future. So it will be.

The way of investing depends on the free time and experience that you have. If you have a lot of time, then you can do trading. But I believe that it is better to combine investment options for long periods and for a short period.

both! there is no rule saying you should only choose one and stick to one at all times.
long term investment is definitely the easiest thing and that is what I will always do no matter what else I am doing. in other words I always have some amount of bitcoin put away in my cold storage which I am not going to touch for many years.
at the same time I am doing some trades whenever I have the time and more importantly whenever I find the market most predictable. that way I can increase the amount of bitcoin that I already have for my long term investment.

I've only tried short term, held it for a couple of months then eventually sold it. I haven't hold any of my investment for more than a year I always cash it out or spend it on something. Holding long term would give you a higher return and it's one of the best way to earn money but it's hard to do if you're not disciplined enough. I might try it at some point if I can accumulate a good amount of bitcoin.

I choose the long term because holding Bitcoin as long as become richer. Bitcoin is like a complex board of gods, the longer you keep it, the more worth it gets and the time that makes up Bitcoin's value. Want to become productive with Bitcoin then we should wait.

Both are good to consider. However, if you are not an expert trader or technical trader using short gain by using bitcoin volatility is risky especially if you are risking or investing big amount of money. So it is better to hold for long period of time because bitcoin is a good hold than any other cryptocurrency or altcoins.

I guess long time investors are the ones who have the extra cash and have big capital and short term investors are the ones with minimal capital and they expect to gain profit in a short period of time.
