Why not do both? You can have your long-term stash, and you could have a special account just for swing and day-trading - that is if you are any good at reading the charts and determining sentiment.
Profits from day-trading could also be used to bolster your hodl stack, or be diversified to other tokens/projects.

There is nothing called hold by trading. They are entirely two different things.
What you are doing is just the normal method of trading. Successful trading that brings profit means that you bought the coin at a low price at sell at a high price to gain.
Holding requires you to keep your bitcoin for a long period of time, maybe six months and above,  before you sell.

There's nothing called hold by trading. It is just a normal trading method. Buy at dips and sell at high. The only thing is that, you are trading with only a single pair and loosing all other opportunities. Holding is an investment method and trading is not holding.
Trading is a game of risk, Trading is a predicting short term price moving and holding is predicting the same price in long term. Cause of too much manipulation in cryptomarkets it`s hard to follow the price. Price tend to go up when no one is expecting, price can drop all of a sudden without any warning, what you think how that is happen?
in theory it will work , but you will probably not be able to buy your coins back at one point . when you will sell for example and the price will go even higher , you can't buy the same amount of coins back . so at this point you will have to wait till it goes lower or take a loss and buy back at a higher price.
In one point you will sell to early, in others you will be late cause others dumped their coins already and you didn`t, in any case you will be short for fiat or bitcoins, whales earn you lose.
Trading is risky work, if you want to be a day trader you need info to be faster then others, you need to be online a lot. I lost a lot with day trading but that was my school, in this market mid term and long term trades are the best, invest in idea not in the price, and you will see how much better that can be.

Hello my friends, I am a newcomer to the Trade and I have been Holding the potential coin. I realized one thing I could increase the amount of coin hold by trading them, for example I hold 100ADA then I sell for 0.6$ buy back at 0.56$. I have increased the number of coin. Be sure to buy the right one if you do not reach the target, and the last target is the one you want to target. That's the experience I've been drawn to, how do you feel? Can you trade more effectively?
P.s: I have a post for some of my new friends to refer to: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/newbie-should-trade-or-not-please-give-me-idea-2777983 , you have some advice for them, let me know by commenting on that, and this post is about the best way to trade.

To me this is just trading. I do this as well but it can be tricky because you may sell and wait for a drop to buy back but instead of dropping, the price could keep rising. This has happened to me a lot so the problem is how to buy back in as the price keeps going up. You are no longer holding but waiting for a price drop that may never happen. I prefer to hold most of the time to avoid this problem.

Hold is for people who are into long term investment or something they are happy to invest with, but if you want to trade for a day then scalping or swing trade is the next option but again it's very risky i would like to share you some experienced that i've done before. The best way to scalp your coins is bear market don't try to scalp your coins when it's bullish.

Why dont scalping in bullish and only in bearish? Do you have the reason?
If you said scalping or short trade is very risk, its right but holding also include in high risk. Nothing is no high risk in trading. This is the first thing before continue trading.

I believe that the present moment we can only trade fast, buy fast, sell fast, surf short, but can not hold long will be extremely dangerous. You can see today bitcoin and altcoin have turned heads and fell extremely strong, so that if you hold longer as much, you will lose even more. Therefore, you should only trade 5-7% if you withdraw.

In my opinion this is the most correct strategy. But for this you need to be able to trade. If you do not know how to trade, then you can not increase the number of your coins, but rather reduce it. Increase the number of coins with an increase in coin prices is a good strategy.

holding and trading are both different. Holding is an act of holding to earn income in a passive way while trading on the other hand is active because you constantly trade in order to earn a profit , therefore you cannot possibly say that it is a correct strategy because that can cause confusion if you do them both at the same time. Rather I suggest focus only on one method in order for you to have a peace of mind , so that you can perform the task correctly.
I wonder why anyone would even call that hold by trade and I am pretty sure the OP is not a trader and does not have any idea about trading which I want to believe that sooner or later, this will end up backfiring for him. He must have been lucky selling at the top and then buying back at the bottom since we are in a downtrend, but when the table turns, I really want to know how he wants to make some market decisions without the knowledge.

I believe that with a constantly changing and unpredictable market like today, it will be difficult for you to trade successfully. Bitcoin prices are fluctuating continuously in the past days and there is no certain trend. We can only see the current time when we should buy and not trade, it is extremely dangerous because the bitcoin price is fluctuating difficult to guess.

Hold trade is actually possible but you will be missing out in some goods potentials coins. I trade some and i hold some, just that market is not what it always seems. So what i will suggest is stick to the method you think that works for you and master it well before delving into other areas. That's it.

I think you should not keep the ADA at the moment, can see ADA prices are falling dramatically in recent days and there are no signs of recovery at all. With a very low trading volume, I think the ADA can fly and raise the price is extremely difficult. I think you should cut losses and invest in more potential projects.

Your strategy is just day trading. Would'nt recommand this method if you don't have enought experience in trading. It involves some risk and you just trade with one coin, it won't be as profitable as with several coins. You could also just hold for a long period, could be less stressing and more profitable Wink

Yes I always do that, Red flag or green flag. When all the crypto were in dip I sell my coins but I see to it that I can buy easily the same coin.  I do not buy any coins because the concept is to hodl.  Hodl while increasing the coins.  From 600 it increased to 850.

I have seen the effect of this method in the last storm, my coin multiplied 1.3 times.
Okay, Good for you!! But I want you to understand that may be working for you now, but if you do not have a trading strategy and what to look out for before buying and selling, which is the ability to do some fundamental and technical analysis, then you are not trading, you are gambling and that will end up getting you coin reduced when you ended up selling once a market starts getting pumped further and you panic to even know when to stop loss.

But, I wonder why the OP called it hold by trading. Trading is trading and sure, unless he is just looking for ways to increase the value of his coins by selling higher and buying lower, without considering all other options necessary thinking it would be that easy, then he can go ahead. Unless he has a strategy and he can understand when to sell and when to buy, he should better just hold.

Thats your stratedgy and its applicable if you know or sense it that a coin you bought will dump again so you can buy more amounts. But then, there are times that when you sold then it not dumps as you expect it will be more likely a Fomo when it pumps thats how altcoins trading are.
Timing is very important, knowing how the dev deal with supporting the coin inside the exchange, most of the time there's a quick dumped especially
if the coin offer bounties, the hunters will sell them for a quick bucks so its really important that you will be able to sell first before they arrive so you will be able to take advantage as you already sell yours and wait for them to oversold their coins.

You are just trading that is all, you have not discovered anything new that is what every trader is looking for, by definition if you are a holding a coin then you cannot trade it away and if you are trading a coin you cannot hold it, now you may have two different strategies for two different coins you could hold your bitcoin and trade Ethereum for example.

it is a nice strategy and it is better than just holding a coin and not doing anything. if you manage to do so, buy dip sell high it is a very good skill which have advantage in both short term and long term time period. But don`t focus on just one coin there are so many other opportunities out there.

A good idea but it includes a lot of risk.
What if the token does not bounce back suddenly.
It all went up and your stuck with your bitcoin or ethereum. That case mostly happen to people specially with bitcoin. Sell at a higher rate and they thought it will bounce back to a smaller price but then they got shocked it came to doubling the price.
This is for those who can risk their money. I'd rather hold.

It is possible to hold and trade. You hold 90-95% if you assets and you trade with 10-5%.

When people say they trade they good traders usually follow that strategy. None of the will trade their entire account, especially not on margin
