Topic: Long term hodl ! What a joke - page 13. (Read 1557 times)
The only coin you can buy when its lower is bitcoin, since its the first coin ever it will surely regain its value but the safest option is still long term hold, holding for long term is on dangerous if the coins you keep are not good
In my opinion there's nothing wrong holding a coin for long term, In the end you can make profit of it, but make sure it is not a shit coin you hold. Every people has own strategy to make money.
Why not sell at the peak and then you can buy back at the bottom.
Selling at the peak and buying back at bottom is wisdom
Selling at the peak and buying back at bottom is wisdom
Easy to say but impossible to know and do. A lot of people are saying this. But I know for sure that they cannot also tell which price is the highest and which price is the lowest. If Bitcoin will suddenly rise to $10,000 tomorrow, are you going to sell or continue to HODL? On the other hand, if Bitcoin will fall down to $5,000 later today, are you going to buy back or continue to HODL? I myself cannot answer this because I do not have the eyes to see what exactly will happen next.
Long term hodl sometimes due to forced conditions. Actually wanted to sell at the top but, did not get a place to sell it. Many people hold tokens with all their might but sell them at cheap prices. It all depends on mentally. Sometimes greed affects everything, always wanting to get more and hold tokens until the price goes back down. Holding tokens for now is very detrimental. Scalping is better though with little profit but is often done.
The failures anticipation the next market trend cause by greed mostly trapped investors and holders. They do have the opportunities but since theyare thinking that the market can go up more instead of selling it with decent profits they will hold more instead. Ending everything to sell with huge
losses and regrets. You need to work with your analysis as this volatile market can give you profits or sucked your money out.
Because everyone has their own way and understands that risk. You cannot justify your way one-sidedly because of the market condition that has been going down which gives disadvantages to those who are longterm.
Personally I still hold bitcoin even though the price isn't going up. But I believe this gives me a profit for at least a year or two, and I understand the risks as well because I buy bitcoin with unused money.
So let me people do it their own way, and you also won't look smart if you post something like this.

Why do you refuse to face the reality of the present state of the crypto market? I always laugh when I see people still talking about long term hodl when the reality is staring us in the face. Don't be a fool, only the smart are leading the race in the crypto sphere of today. Why do you decide to hodl when you know that the price may dump? Why not sell at the peak and then you can buy back at the bottom. The race is not to the fool but to the wise. Selling at the peak and buying back at bottom is wisdom but holding at the peak expecting a magic spike is foolishness. Bull run is not here yet, do not expect a magic spike. When the bull run is here, you don't need a prophet to tell you that. Be smart.
To be honest, you just sound exactly like someone who came along later and bought on the near top. I've seen how this altcoin crash has played out before and it's pretty arrogant to claim that you have a clue about tops or bottoms after you clearly have bought the top. For all we know markets could do instant 2x from here or be dumped because of news. It's mostly luck, but you can do a lot better by educating yourself.
I agree with your idea or way of thinking. We shouldn't hold long term if already know Bitcoin price and altcoins down. But that's what keeps players from not liking everyday trades. They may have targets and sure the fore price will rise high. That's what causes them to choose to hold their assets.
but the thought of an investor who likes long-term investment is not a problem. because indeed they already have their plans and predictions. despite the decline but they certainly, have the perseverance to wait for the market to return. different from a short-term investment player or a daily trader, because all of them have different thoughts.

Yes, I agree with you that holding a coin for too long is greed. because we continue to expect the price of coins to rise even higher. being greedy will keep us from getting anything. it's better to sell when the coin has increased 30% or 40%. then take profit and wait for coins to dump and buy again. I think this method is more beneficial than holding it for a long time. holding it for a long time also does not guarantee we will get a big profit.
This depends on your strategy, whether you're daily or weekly trading a few assets or simply accumulating them when they get cheap, and the latter can be a very effective strategy, but you do make a good point that when profits arrive don't get too greedy and be sensible with your liquidations and besides you don't have to sell all of an asset at once

In crypto world there is always a lesson to learn from, holding is very good but selling at peak and buying back at bottom is better either ways they have advantages and disadvantages, some times you won't know if a coin have hits its bottom too
Holding varies differently based on the perspective of the individual. Because not everyone is on the same screen as you, and as well not everyone is on the same interest as you. They may look at in the chart knowing that those might be an opportunity to buy or sell but that doesn't it picks their interest. Because they maybe have different approach on handling their strategies or plans.

Long term hold is the true way to profit from the cryptocurrency markets. The holders are the teal winners if they hold good cryptotocurrency, else it could be a potential waste of time and resources. If you're interested in making a quick buck, don't hold, trade and regret in 5 to 10 years down the line.
Maybe or maybe not. It depends on what you are hodling. If you are hodling a shitcoin. Even if you hodl it for the rest of your life, you will not gonna make profit on it since the devs of that project is enjoying the investors money in some island with cool beach. Bitcoin is the only coin that worthy to hodl and the rest needs some trading way to earn profit just like the OP said. Sell when price peak and buy when price is dump.

After lost with many altcoin assets I will never long term investment again with new altcoin received from bounty campaign and ICO project, not good planning with long term investment because many altcoin look not serious for the future with their coin, you can check with coinmarket cap history how higher price of altcoin and now look dump with lower price.

Im only choose to hold are those trusted coins like bitccoin and etherium or the top 10 in CMC, But in comes of altcoins maybe one of them Ill trade it early.
And its looks like have some altcoins have not have value at all if we take to a years holding it. And Ill agree with you I heard always said holding but what reminds me on the time Ill have a coins holding for so long until no price in return.

What ever you chose to hold is your own thing. Each of us have a choice, it's not matter do others agree or not with your choices.
We shouldn't mock each other here, we should be supportive, or try to be.
I don't think that long-term investments are joke! It's a good strategy, safer then some other strategies. I'm a crypto-currency holder
and I'm proud to say that.

We cannot blame those who choose to hold. That's each decision. If there is an opportunity to go down, the opportunity that will occur also to go up. Especially for long-term investment, I salute those who are mentally strong to continue to hold in the midst of this saturated market. And when the bull run comes, it will definitely get a pleasant spring. Not a stupid decision for those who choose to hold. Provided that calculations have been made before making a decision.
I've seen a lot of posts on this forum about what hold doesn't bring anything useful. And I agree with that. Times change and strategies change too. You always need to adjust to the current situation and then you will always have a profit.
