I believe hodling can be split into two categories: those who know how to evaluate and know the market, and those who do not. Many crypto investors rush in and invest without adequate understanding because someone told them to invest in crypto to make a lot of money. As a result, what Op stated is likely true for investors that lack expertise. Those that have wisdom, on the other hand, know when to sell and when to buy again.
And those that who don't know how to evaluate the market looks smarter than those that are experimental with trading and didn't find any success on it.
There are times that the lesser efforts that we do is actually productive than of those that have been trying hard but they don't know what they're up to in reality.
That's why if those holders just hold because somebody said so and they have obeyed, I guess they're smarter than of those that keeps on trading without knowing how to execute it properly.
It's because that those who did lesser efforts are the ones who didn't rush for the money. They only invest what they can afford to lose and didn't make trading as their primary source of income. Those who are trying hard in trading, study a lot without enough sleep, are the one who experienced big loses in trading. Lack of sleep and losing trades can affect your emotions that's why most of them spend more time in trading. Sometimes, instead of learning to be profitable, their mind is equipped with different strategy that will lead them to lose more money.
Mastering one strategy is better than having multiple strategies.
So you do say that it would be better that you should be sitting idle and wont really be making any actions towards your trading? It doesnt seems right yet there would be people who could really put up some risks
and really that willing to learnt up trading knowing that this is a career that something that could give out some chance for them to earn money on which it is really just that normal that you would be experiencing
unfortunate events. If you are someone who doesnt really like to experience those unfortunate conditions or simply losing money then this venture isnt for you and you would really be just rather holding
than on making yourself do make some active trading on which it is really just that a common approach.
Holding is someones really choice because usually people do have particular reasons on why they are holding, whether they cant just bare up with the risks involved
or they dont really have the time for them to make out such venture and focuses out something.
