Hey guys, which do you guys think is the most favourable coins for long and short trading strategies for the remainder of 2018?

Opinions, please!

i choose both, why? because almost the same holding bitcoin for long term and holding altcoins for long term are same profitable, why i choose both because same as currency have movement up and down depending into the high demand of coins.
i also buy some coins for short term becuase i'm a day trader, buy in sell strategy is profitable to me i set the percentage i want to reach as my day profit for my day today trading job have risk but need to learn and study to avoid loses.

Altcoin's definitely needs to be kept in long, as they have great prospects for application in different spheres and directions in our life. But Bitcoin can also give up their positions Cheesy

Investments can be divided as follows: If you want to invest in the long-term hold, Bitcoin and Etherum is a better choice. And if you're going to make a profit in the short term, invest in altcoins like NEO, Ripple, EOS, Stellar. You only need to buy altcoins and hold at least 1 week to 1 month to get your own profit. This is my personal opinion, you can refer to make your own decision.

you should better see the profits that must be generated from the investment and if looking for the right profit is to hold until you find the benefits of the investment. and the best is ethereum and bitcoin because most altcoin / token prices always follow both.

Do your own research and see for yourself what can be the coins that has potential to hold for long term or short term, dont just rely in the suggestions here. I have bitcoin, Eth and Neo and im holding them for long term.

for long period you can buy coins from the top 10, and for short period you need to look for promising alts, but with a low price

Top 10 coins in the market doesn't guaranteed they are good for long term because the prices are volatile.

I choose ETH, NEO and Bitcoin for a long term. It is stable, perspective and I know this will go up in this year

Great choice. These are stable coins that can bring you very big profits in the near future. But if you show patience and save these coins for several years, you may become a very rich man. I also chose these coins for long-term storage. But I have other interesting coins in my portfolio.

Globcoin is a new stablecoin bringing tokenized currency baskets, to be traded in their own platform. Their ICO is open now with a 70% bonus until March.

70% BONUS!!! That's quite the discount to be expected these days, never thought I would see any coin offer beyond 50% discount. 70% is indeed huge, how does the team expect to control liquidity as so much of the coin will be in circulation.

For me, I only hold bitcoin for security, as a contingency in case of the market unexpected behavior. For trading, I always prefer trading altcoins as they provide more profits compared to the top 25 coins on the coinmarkepcap. So, basically, I prefer to hold bitcoin for short-term and hold potential altcoins for long-term.

Bitcoin is always the best coin for long-term transactions, and has always been one of the most profitable types of encryption, and he has proved it.

For me in shortterm way i choose bitcoin because bitcoin is quick rise and fallen pricing and we dont know if the bitcoin will fallen or rising so that the important of that is monatoring always in pricing of it so that you can get a great profit.in longterm way i choose altcoin because altcoin is the best longterm way to invest and waiting the exact time to get a great peofit.theres many persons become rich because now a day altcoin is low pricing and the coming years will rising so that you can get a good profit.

Bitcoin and altcoins are so important in crypto currency world inspite of inflation or fluctuation of value,still it can stood back to its normal pace. Though altcoins have low value yet it will be worth the wait when you have patience with you all the time when you want to save for a long time. Those altcoins will somehow increase in a perfect frame soon hence, bitcoin remains constant with minimal changes of value. I'd rather have them both because long term way comes from a short term process that's why bitcoin has higher value if it's in its luck.

Actually bitcoin is verry suitable in both long and short term of investment because its value can usually pump or dumped anytime unlike to altcoins that their value can take a long time to increase. However altcoin is more beneficial when it comes to trading because they can be easily trade because of their volume and cheap price while bitcoin is mainly been used as an investment tool. although many people including me are still doing investing rather than trading because it is much easier and user friendly.

If it says about a coin that has a long-term prospect then I would choose etherum. Compared to others, etherum has strength in quality and also popularity. When we invest in etherum we are not afraid to invest in large quantities as well as long periods of time. Notice the current conditions, etherum offers a smart contract that is very interesting and used by many projects. This could be more value because not many other altcoin can do this.

for long term bitcoin is better than altcoin. because altcoin is only suitable for short-term, but there is good altcoin for long term that is only eth. so I think it could be a good coin for investment.

You should do the research and focus on the white paper, road map on alts. From my point of view, top 10 cryptocurrencies can be long-term investments like BTC, ETH. For short term, I'm not sure how to define the time of short investment, you can find interesting ones, and join the bounty such as signature or twitter campaign.

What if I were considering in picking from the top 100 coins, apart from WP and Roadmap which for most of them seem to be rigid, what other indicators do you think i can do to add prospective alts to my BTC and ETH stash for long-term?

Long term=I don't venture out top 100 normally (unless a super promising project with rep) Ex ETH or BTC right now.
Short term=Anything that has value and that upcoming roadmap something is happening. Ex ETC right now.

Short is dont to short and long is dont too long, that is the way i do it.
I never do very short trading like 1 day or 2 days and i never did trading more than 6 months. This way i do because i think this is smarter when we can make round trade and gain more money but not very short because its very risky

sometimes, doing middle trading is a good decision if the coin doesn't give a good progress to increase and sometimes this type of coin is not getting high in short-term. like a cheap coin which does not increase higher in the short-term, we need to hold for at least 1 month after we buy so we can see the price is increase although it is not significant.

Has anyone got a hang of veechain and Qtum? Considering adding these to my alt stash. Seeing that they are among the top 20 sure puts them on a bright spot light.
