Topic: My answer to the big question of Hodling - page 2. (Read 1402 times)

The question is when to sell of course. Because eventually you do have to sell something to realize any profits. My strategy is outlined below, let me know what you think and feel free to share yours. Mine has not been tested as I'm still fairly new to trading and should not be taken as investment advice.
First and foremost, i only invest with money i can afford to lose and only into projects i have throughly researched.  What I plan to do is buy  and hodl until the price is 2X. Then sell half, essentially giving me back my initial investment, anything I sell afterward is pure profit.

I hodl again until  the price reaches 10X. Then sell 20%, giving me a 100% return on my investment again. This would be my first actual profit. I hodl again until the price reaches 100X. Then sell 20% again, giving me a 800% return on my investment.
 I hodl again until the price reaches 1000X. Then sell half my remaining balance, giving me a 1600% return on my investment. At this point I would still retain 16% of my original balance and have recieved a 169X return overall on my investment. Obviously I would have to get in early on a coin/asset and still then wait years potentially to see the returns I want. I'd have my stop loss set at 75% of the orginal price until my first selling at 2X and 50% of the original price there after.

So that's my plan, how's it sound? Obviously I could hodl for the 1000X the entire time, but I feel this is a nice way to lock in some profit early while still holding for the long haul.

Sounds like a great plan. The real pain people feel when investing is losing their initial investment. So cashing that out and taking profits regularly means you are always in profit and ahead of the game. And you can always use some of your profits to buy the dips so that you always hold the same amount of coins.

Oh! you have so much patience in the matter of profits. Being true,i have never got 2x from my investments till yet.
I hold and then sell when i see i have accumulated 15%-20 profit.Similarly half of my base amount remains there. I have no policy designed to achieve a major return.

Well, that depends on your target. Bitcoin can double it's price or even more. Some traders HODL bitcoin for years hoping that bitcoin could gain huge value in the future. Some expecting bitcoin price at $10,000.a piece. That's possible since bitcoin just doubled it's price this year. It's just drops because of actions of China and continuous sprewding FUDs against Bitcoin. Some are just day trade bitcoin because it's fluctuating a bit. They could easily get some $$$. Some are trading bitcoin from altcoin market to get more bitcoin and then HODL.
