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

If I have a different perspective, I think when I can get a profit margin then I will sell the coins I have. It's called a trading action in a fast way, I do not think to be able to get bigger profits because I could lose a good momentum. That way I make sure the security of my profits, I would prefer a little profit but can be stable and instens at all times rather than just waiting a long time and we do not get a certainty to get big advantage, it could be even the losses we get. Each choice must have a risk, especially when we invest Altcoin which tend to be very easily affected by various news in the world of crypto.

There a lot of most suitable coins for longterm investments bitcoins are ones with good and All other alts are bounded to them and their volatility affect the price of alts. For short investments, alts are more suitable though, because they have more chances to multiply their value considering the lower price per token.

Yes, at least in the top #10 will be a good coins to invest for long term. But as for short term, just like most members here, I also have some portfolio on it but just a few coins only. I'm not comfortable having lots of coins for my short term trading.

Sound advice. But I also do trade for 1 or 2 days just for the heck of getting some experience on it. Long term for me is like 1 year. Short term, 1 day and as long as 3 months only, then I take my margin of profits or if I can hit is earlier, which ever comes first.

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!

Both are profitable if have skills how to trade better, for long term trading you get or you cantwait the price increase until reach 100 percent interest rate from your coins. In shot term trading you can get an 5 to 20 percent interest rate earnings. Smae the giving earning, the decision is yours.

I prefer short trading because...the crypto arena is not so stable to invest in extra-long terms...6-10 months - that's my limit, I think.

Many coins are out there that should be looking at for investment. Bitcoin may not give you now a short time investment opportunities but there are many altcoins out there that will give you good profit in short time. Coins like neo, lisk, wave, xem and litecoin are some of the coins you can invest now and make good prifits.

Generally im longterm investor ,but i keep some amount for trading. short list of altcoins - stratis, eos, trst, waves, credits, arblock, wepower, wings, game,qrl,omg, golem
I divided my portfolio in 2 parts - 1)long term -80% of deposit 2)short and medium term -20% of deposit.
In first group are altcoins (60%), BTC (40%). i hold them until the price will rise x5-x10, not less.
Altcoins from second group im ready to sell x2-x3 and use BTC/ETH for further trade.

If you want a sure long term investment you can go in bitcoin, especially now that the price its is quite down. So its a perfect time to buy a lot of it. Then , for a shorter term of investment you can try ripple and Neo . They price change rapidly , sometime its like a racket that rises very quick and after that it will hard fall.

Altcoin in 2018 seems to be more fun, where strengthening and weakening are so frequent that i can be quicker in making a profit. Bitcoin certainly still beneficial, but altcoin more active.

I too love altcoins but not compare with bitcoin. Bitcoin is leader and altcoins are their followers. Hence we can invest on altcoins when looking for the short term profit. For long term BTC and ETH are best on pit your fund.
There are some cheap altcoins have long term potential. Those coons are all the time best coons to invest buddy.

I choose both. Long investment will give you profit in a few months or years so what you want doing when you will be waiting? Trying with short time investment to get some money faster will be the best.

I agree, so what's your list for long-term and those for short-term?

I always had two investment portfolios - long and short. I think this is a very good strategy, which will always bring profit. The bulk of my investment is investment in bitcoin.

I have the same pattern before but since I was not able to monitor the market much so I decided to focus more on my long term goal. Investing with bitcoin is really good for long term however there's also a big altcoins that can do the same thing with bitcoin in terms of profit making some of those are ETH, XEM and XRP.

I will now be predictable. But for me the best coins are bitcoins. I listened to reviews on the Internet, and was also quite surprised by their rapid growth and the profit that after all this is obtained.
