My strategy is long term - minimum 1 year.
I am trying to follow this rule of investment:
"Do not invest amount which you are afraid to loose".

Well it depends on the kind of investment you are doing. If i'm doing a long term investment i can wait months for coin to reach it's peak. As for short term you should be able buy & sell asap to make profit.

Depends on the coin. We have some coins that we pre mined in the first days of their announcements and some of those are a year old or more. The wallets take up nearly no space and we run through a spreadsheet we have of them and cross reference versus the markets every other day. I think that a year is about max for that, but it depends on the action on the forums, the exchanges and others things.
Regarding what you said about coins you premined. Are there websites that are giving or announcing currency that is about to launch?

Hello, tokenmarket and icotracker web sites are one of those web sites showing an ico calendar to you.

I'll hold my coins for 10 years if they don't die. I know it's a long time, but if I can achieve this, I can make huge profit at the end.
But if that coin cannot live until that time, do you have any plans for solve this problems? Because even Bitcoin still cannot determine, your token also does not has opportunity for long term like your said!

This is a very tricky question to answer and a rather complicated one as each coin or token has a different utility and project behind it. Also some coins nose dive for good and to hold those would be a great calamity, so now I try to look for coins that have potential not only for bigger long term returns but that also give a reward for holding or passive income type element to them. I think this strategy suits me best because I am near pensionable age but without a decent pension to look forward to.

Because of tax reasons I am forced to hold most of my coins longer than one year. After that year they are tax free. This is often very complicated and annoying, because you want to sell the hype, but can't because you wold have to pay 50%!!! taxes for your wins.

It depends a lot on the potential of the coin that im holding, some coins i hold for months, because some major updates will come in future. Some altcoins i trade on daily basis, because they just pump and dump - for example DENT coin is the best coin to trade in this way.

Depending on experience. There are many coins out there which are not promising. If you got one of them sell your coin as soon as possible. If you have some good quality coin, like btc, eth, neo, bch then you can hold it for long time for good profits.

I do not trade for altcoin and bitcoin.
I just hold a few coins and of course bitcoin as well.

if you want to trade. you must have a plan and strategy,
you can trade on a short term basis, or you trade in the long run.
all there is a method you can find reading on how to trade.
I think you should do a lot for your understanding and knowledge.

this is about what you want to do, not how long to be held or sold. but more on the strategies and plans you run.
in trading and two concepts, long and short. you need to use strategy and have a strategy.

I hold for very short time. I am only in for quick profits. So I prefer to invest into speculative coins. Holding makes me really nervous.

When you are active trader, you need to work hard to make a profit since you have watch out all value overtime
Let's compare if you're an investor, just stay still and wait your bitcoin profit grow after 1 year just like many years before

Hi guys! if you trade,  how long do you hold your coins?. How would you know if you have to let go or sell you coins or still have to keep it?.

Well, trading is really unpredictable as coin's dumps and pumps happen all the time. I think by trying to put a margin on the loses or profits you'll get will put you to a most optimal lose and gains. I suggest researching where you would invest your coins and be as patient as possible when they experience dumps. Try to find the reason why is that happening and trust them as much as you can. Many beginner lose their cool and try to sell their coins when there is a big dump happening. For a trader, you must not panic, what you should do is to wait more days and watch how things will go.

* I hold my coin as long as possible. When I think that I reached the highest possible value I can gain profit of of that coin, I'll sell them all right away and try to wait for other coins so that I can invest again. My rule is that, when I think that the dump on the coin is so unreasonable, I'll find the cause and predict what will happen, from there I can try to keep on holding it or sell it when the loss is still low.

depends the trend and coin.im not really into day trading but if i see price rasing i just join and let go after profit %1.5 to %5
If you just profit for 1.5% will you not be losing money because of the fees?



in my opinion, I'll save coins into a secure wallet for a long period of time so that it will get huge profits and wait for the right time when the price of the bitcoin in movement and growth market with high prices, but for the moment I will keep at least reached some btc in the end of this year Wink Wink Wink Smiley

I assume that it depends on an individual. However, what I usually do is wait until I make profit and then sell. If I bought a certain coin when its worth was higher, and few days/weeks later the value begin to fall, I won't sell it if I am loosing, I will hold on to it until it recovers and then sell. I don't usually prefer to loose. However, some investors might use a different approach.

My strategy is to hold them until I retire or they drop out of the top 100 for market cap.

It depends on your basis for holding. Some have set like 1 to 3 years. These are the long-term holders. If you want to be a short-term holder then 6 months more or less is already enough. But of course you still have to see the movements in the market. If there is a dip in almost all prices then it is advisable that you hold for another round so that there is still time for the price to rise back.

I'm a long-term holder : since the crypto market is globally increasing, you will waste too much time and stress if you're constantly looking at the charts

I'll keep my coins at least 2 years no matter what will happend
