I think now at this juncture it is wise to have multi pronged approach, bot for HOLDING and also TRADING coins. We need to make sure we are primed and ready for a bull run cycle and also day trade to take general profits along the way, so there is a balance. If you only day trade for instant small gains or hold coins and tokens only for long term hope of appreciation, then you might be losing out on potential upside gains along the way, both for the short term and the long term. We are making our way out of the bear cycle by doing both day trading and also long term holding so this way we can slowly grow again to the point when there is a next bull cycle , we can then hatch the golden eggs, but until then also be earning.
The problem with trying both strategies at the same time is that they are so different that people have a lot of problems adjusting their behaviour to each one, if you are a holder it is difficult to become to become a trader and get rid of your coins when there seems to be trouble and if you keep holding your coins for too long then you lose and when it comes to altcoins that is critical, you need to be able to get out of a bad position early or lose all your money.
And for traders it is difficult to become long term holders, they are used to the adrenaline of taking decisions every day and the monotony of doing nothing with your coins even if the price is going down is too difficult for them to endure.
