Topic: Long term vs. Short term - page 8. (Read 11538 times)

Short term trading is only good for people who know technical analysis and can time their trades according to the market and majority sentiment. Long term also requires a bit of TA, but is mostly based on fundamental analysis. So, people with good understanding of cryptocurrencies and their potential, can make a good long term investment decision. So, you have to choose according to your requirements.

Our investment plan should be divided into many short-term and medium-term investment portfolios depending on whether we have specific plans with those plans. I believe that we are quick to make a profit and minimize the risks in investment

for now holding a coin is a bad idea in my opinion, because the market for this year will continue to fall. I always do short grilling

I would recommend for Long term, unless some one does trading to meet his daily needs or do it on arbitage method, long term gives more insight bout the coins and its potential and perks too if they award with forks or revenue profits.

My portfolio is: 40% for long-term coins and 60% for short-term coins, because I don't think most coins are worth holding for a long time!

If you have time, you can do short term trade, but if you dont have much time and you dont know trading much, you can research and find good project for long term investment.

Based on the current situation of the cryptocurrency market I think long term is better than short term because as of now the market is still unstable so day to day trading is not appropriate for some investors so I think long term is a good strategy.

I'm holding long term and actually now (because of the market situation) I got absolutely no profits and my losses are around 50%. Today I wish I'd chosen short-term trading...

I am holding BTC, ETH & NEO for long term as they have huge pottential to give returns in 5X to 10X in longer run easily. For short term i work on Market trends and buy according and sale at right time to take out my seeded funds. Its better to sale and bring out invested amount on short term investments as there are huge probability of getting losses on short term investment.

In my opinion, the short term strategy i usually take for the Altcoins i usually buy when the btc fluctuates and then sells when the price is high. The long term strategy i apply to BTC and ETH is because i keep it for long periods of time.

But there are some projects that are not sure that holding in the long run will give you income, while the current market is constantly falling, I hold in the long run will be more afraid. But now the sale is also suffering losses

Obviously you have to find your sweet spot, if you are full of excitement while doing trading and you are beating the market constantly it's probably no point to change. But the majority of people don't have the experience/expertise to do that.

I rather choose long term because long term give a sure profit if the project was real and having a good progress and also im putting all my funds for a long term investments.

I am all for the long term. The long term prospects of high quality projects are very green, so it is only a matter of time, when the market for them will really pick up again. Remember that the total value of all cryptocurrencies and tokens is today only 2-3% of the total value of all fiat currencies, so the trend can only be up! And high quality altcoins will pick big parts of that space that will be captured - not sure that it will be bitcoin at all, when things advance.

I would use this summer lull and directionless market to do my study and research in peace for the future winners, to spot them and buy into them now, when everything is very cheap! One can make a lot of good bargains today…

Seek for the hidden gems with a lot of study, analysis and thorough assessment of projects. You just need to do your research carefully and don't trust ICO listing sites etc. because ratings can be bought. Careful research is very important to avoid scams and other low quality projects - don't trust anyone but your own research!

I have been recently following Stellar that is generally on the rise and the tokens issued on the Stellar platform - now there is a bump like in any cryptocurrency over the past few days, but generally Stellar is on the rise because of the prospective Coinbase listing and other advances. This will also boost tokens issued on the Stellar platform...

My most recent find among alts is AXU, "Argentas Exchange Unit" token issued on the Stellar platform and listed and verified on the Stellarport decentralized exchange, now only at its pre-distribution, or pre-ICO phase. A true hidden diamond, with low profile so far. Experienced people clearly, and cool tech for decentralizing and revolutionizing global banking - their website at argentas.io.

The pre-ICO price is 50% cheaper than the ICO price, a sure winner IMO, and I will certainly get some. They also have an ANN thread, I think here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/xxx-4431900. I dug really deep in their content, and it is really cool stuff But don’t forget your own research!

Right, to get big profits then the long term is better, we must always be sure of crypto's future so that with long-term investment will make us get big profits, and now is the right time to buy because prices immediately skyrocket.

Long term you can get much more profit of it it can double it price or maybe triple but on the short term you can get much more profit time to time if you are investing multiple investment and short time is good for hasty person

I think many altcoins do not have a future because they do not have emission limits at all. If Bitcoin has a limited emission of 21 million coins, then others have emissions many times greater

My intention when entering the cryptographic market is to hold the coin until the price rises and I say 10 times I accept to sell, so no matter how much the market fluctuates. Then I rest assured

The market is constantly changing, so you need to have patience and perseverance. If your coin has sagged, do not rush to conclusions, think that the currency should be urgently sold. We must wait for the price recovery.

Bitcoin and Etherium - these are the two main coins for me for a long period, the rest I buy and quickly sell, as soon as the price rises.
