Topic: Long term vs. Short term - page 99. (Read 11538 times)
For long term investment i would prefer BTC,ETH,ALT,these coins can give you benefit if you hold them for certain time because prices are low these days and when price higher you can sell.On the other hand for short term you can choose,ADA,XPR,NEO,and some other coins,these coins are good for day to day trading,depend upon your way of trading and investment amount.
I used to primarily hold for long term but because the market has been so fickle and retarded lately, I am beginning ton feel I must take a slightly different approach and have both long term and short term positions as it is going to be hard just to be holding coins long term and seeing their value keep dropping, even though they are very good projects. Right now there are just too many coins and projects and not much new money coming in so the whales just play the markets and most others who hold end up losing all their profits as the whales and day traders squeeze out every cent from the market at intervals.
How are you handling your portfolio? How much are risking in % of your portfolio in short term gain vs. Long term gain?
In long term and in short term we need particular experience to handle Because both of them have high profit chance but if we will see for the loss chances then surely it is short term trading which have more chances to loss the money .Here is am with the long term trading , since I was doing day time trading and also long term trading so I can understand very well .
In short term trading we need to out bulk amount of money for trading but in case of long term trading we need to out small amount of money and we can make bulk profit by holding them for long time .
And also in short term we should not expect for high% profit but in case of long term.hodl trading we can expect very high Amount of profit .
The ideal is 70% BTC and the rest for alts or fiat. I do believe long-term gains is the key to investing. You can see the dip along the way, but the long-term view will make your investment better
My rule of thumb is if you don't take profits, there may be no profit, in the cryptocurrency world. I do hold long positions on Bitcoin and Ethereum, but mainly to buy altcoins when I see them in a good dip. I also take profits in Bitcoin and Ethereum, so it makes it easy to stay long on them. The one thing you have to make sure of is your not selling off your profits in BTC and ETH at a loss when the price dips. I find when BTC is running up in price, it is a good time to buy alt's for short-term investing. That's just my take on the topic, everyone has different trading strategies.
I prefer long-term investments, although this is less profitable than trading on the exchange, but it is more secure.
I make invest in short term and long term by portfolio each 50%, and for short term trading i have target to get minimum 30% profit montly. And for long term i will hold it in minimum 1 year. And for short trading i will more focus in to it, to get consistent profit by learn more new strategies.
For a long-term investment, it is to bring more income, but not all coins come up to it so you need to be careful
Honestly my line between long term/short term became blured. I would say that bitcoin and ethereum are my number one choice for long term but bitcoins % ot total market cap is slowly fallying over time. Ethereum is another story. It is mostly used to support ICOs but with more and more regulations on the way, its future success beacame questionable for me... at least the ROI.
They both have merits and demerits, but long term investment still remains the best for an investor planning to be successful, nobody knows when altcoins will pump, cryptos require a lot of patience and as it is known patience dog eat the fattest bone.
when it comes to risk, there is no risky choice. as discussed in this thread, I think for short-term profit risks are greater than long-term benefits. because if we talk about profits we will definitely choose to profit that we can use in the future.
How are you handling your portfolio? How much are risking in % of your portfolio in short term gain vs. Long term gain?
My short-term investment is less risky, but low returns and long-term investment is more profitable, but it also brings more risks, besides there are many people from the community say that should invest long-term instead of short-term investment because this can make profits get higher if the time to invest
I always hold it. I suggest to hold specially now!
It will depend on the type of speculation you like to perform. Bitcoin and other important crypto currencies fluctuate for speculative reasons and not for real valuations. The economic trend increasingly in disruptive technology, makes the entire financial cryptographic ecosystem continue to increase and continue to grow. For me it is better to leave them parked and wait for them to return to have the price that by our calculations would be ideal to sell them. That means that they go up in price by 40% or 70% compared to today's prices. It can take a long time for them to rise, it can be weeks or even months.
Your tactic is very important. There are coins that bring you long-term profit, and there are other currencies that are considered stable, which do not have large fluctuations and automatically bring long-term profit. I believe that patience is very important in the cryptocurrency market, so I am a long-term profit-maker. However, no one guarantees an increase in the price of a long-term currency.
Even if you hold long the coins it has a chance to get dump so I better stick to scalping or short terms. Because we won't know when will the next market crash will be

Short-term and long-term are risky, short-term risk such as:
- difficult to grasp the market,
-when buying it too high will be challenging to make a profit if it goes down.
Long-term solves the risks that short-term has but the waiting time is long if you set high goals.
if you analyze it well I think, - difficult to grasp the market,
-when buying it too high will be challenging to make a profit if it goes down.
Long-term solves the risks that short-term has but the waiting time is long if you set high goals.
short term and long term is no problem,
because coins and tokens will be predictable from his company

this is based on what I did
short term = day trading : can earn small amount in a matter of 10 buy and selling 6 of it had me failed and my earnings loose a little bit or sometimes even more, also time consuming
long term = holding for a month I think : can earn big if you got a good valueble have potenatial coin. much smaller risk of failure.
time consuming if you will think but if you will not be paranoid it will not.
after I do this I think long term is best. I am now holding ripple and stoped day trading because ripple are so hyped and I know ripple have future.
do your own research of course of those coins you want to hold or invest happy earning
Since we dont know when the value of coins goes down or up some of us are choosing short term because theywant to get profit immediately than taking the risk of long term even they know they can possible to get more profit in long term. But for me i do short term if the value is increasing and do long term when the value decrease, and wait to rise again. short term = day trading : can earn small amount in a matter of 10 buy and selling 6 of it had me failed and my earnings loose a little bit or sometimes even more, also time consuming
