There are only two possible investments: either we go about day trading and scalping, playing on volatility (and then we need strong nerves and a lot of luck), or we hold everything hoping that in a year, two or three the market will explode.
There are no medium-term strategies

hi guys
do u prefer short or long term investing in crypto i prefer short term only
i just buying a coin for ex at 20 and sold at 21 or buy at 60 sold 61 in the same
day i don't like long term investing because it take too long and finally that
coin can fall even peoples who bought ETH at 0.03 or more they are in big lost
now and even BNB some peoples bought at 0.003 or even 0.004 i know
that some coins can raise in the future but i don't think we have to hold
coins for yeras when u can make in this periode thousands of dollars
in short term investments i remember when i make 1700$ in hours
with NLC2 its a shit coin true with price of 20 sat now but i don't care
because i didn't hold it i just checked its chart and i found it falling
to 800 sat and raising to 900 in seconds so i bought it many times
at 800 and i sold it 900 and i make 1700$ i less then two hours  Grin
what i want to say is why u holding coins for a year when u can
make at least 25 - 50$ in a day with only 0.15 - 0.20 BTC this
means 50*365=18250$

I can't prefer you any of this. Short term is the best for the time when cryptocurrency gradually increase. If you started short time trading after Q2 2018, you can't earn profits without gather more coin. This time also possible like this profits. The time Q1 2017 was also good for long term investment.

You can make smaller profits off trading alt-coins daily with decent knowledge of how to read the market, but a lot of time and effort can go into that which you can save by opting for longer term investment in undervalued or over sold assets and waiting for them to appreciate

I prefer to combine these two ways of investing. But short-term investment brings me more profit. But some coins will do better in the long run.
On my behalf, long term investing brings more profit to me. Because of being patient and not selling my bitcoin few years ago, I was able to join the craze and sold a good amount of bitcoin and made well last all time high. It isn't that much as you're expecting but I call it a better profit than the short term investing that I had before.

There are coins good for short term but you shouldn't ignore longing on the best coins.

You made good points though, but yet I would go for long term investing. But in this case I will not invest and hold upcoming coins because they are too risky owing to swapping etc. So I prefer top coins like BTC, ETH and XLM, these are the coins I do hold with ease. Another reason for top coins is the chances of handsome reward is high as well.

What you are doing is day trading not investing, but that's by the way. You asked why people are holding? Have you bother knowing why most people who are called whales buys and hold large amount of Bitcoin or Ethereum mostly? The answer is because they are thinking long term. Some people bought Bitcoin lower last year, and this year you knew the story.
Now, am not saying one should run into holding, what am trying to say is, when one wants to go long term let it be with those top and trusted coins like BTC, they will surly give reasonable returns.
Also, everyone goes with what works for him, some prefer trading, some prefer investing be it short term or long term.
Lastly, the truth is, most altcoins are only good for a very short term.

I personally will definitely choose the long term, but if the price of my altcoin increases by more than 50% in the short term, then I will immediately sell it without having to wait long term, because my target is to get a profit more than 50%, so if the price of altcoin that I have increases (giving me more than 50% profit), then I will sell it without waiting a long time.

I choose short term 15 percent interest of profits I can get earn is enough for me,  long term investment is also a profiatble but need a lot of patience wait for the pump at 100 percent price increase and that's is too greedy.


Long-term investments are suitable for those traders who do not like to work and who have extra money. And investors who need money are forced to engage in short-term investments. If you are engaged in trading, then, in my opinion, it is better to use both types of investments.


Yes that true mate even not rich man are can investment and keep coins for long term the important in long term hold have an self control and and have extra money to survive the daily needs.

Investing in the crypto market is difficult because of the high risk and unlike most other assets.  Looking at the majority of projects, the value compared to the ICO, IEO significantly reduced.  No one is really brave enough to enter such a market in the long run.  Currently I feel that only Bitcoin is worth the long-term investment and the best altcoins should have short-term investments and carefully selected.

Long term offers bigger rewards when the market is good. But it is hard to find coins that will do well for a long term hodl unless you buy btc or eth (and even that can dip below your buy price over a period of time).

I prefer short term. Rewards may be lesser but with good trading capital, the profit is consistent.

It is easier for you to trade all day may be because you are not busy but for someone that is very busy, that may not be possible considering his or her schedule for the day. Investing in a long term and a short term is a choice of whoever that want to invest, some prefer to invest in a long term why some others on a short term.

long-term investment or short-term investment for me are all the same, the difference is financial management.
if they already understand about financial management, investing in the short or long term will certainly provide better profit

financial management in investing really needs to be known, because if financial management can be done correctly in investing, then the record of short-term investment or long-term investment can be done

Well, I also invest in the short term. It is very good for people who have a lot of free time. the benefits are not too big but the losses are also not much (balanced)
Short term is good but only for those who are having to allot of free time as for short term investment you will have to keep your eyes on the market all the time and also you will have to take part in daily market check. Those who are on work should invest in long term as long term investment will be profitable for them it will help them both save money and get profit.

I think everyone has their choice to invest in the long term or short term. And actually, if we can make a profit in the short term it will be more profitable than holding a coin for a long period of time and sometimes what happens is not as expected and it becomes useless. But, for the short term at least we should be able to observe the movement of the graph to determine when the right time to buy and sell it.

like everything else, that if you want to get big profits then you need to take part in both of them, even I personally currently do both such as trading and also long-term investment with some of the top altcoin bags in the market. but not recommended for new users who do not have the skills and then immediately take part in trading, it is very high risk.

Based on personal experience and what I've witnessed, it's best to make short-term investments because the crypto market is risky.  Short-term investments will help us optimize profits, if long-term investment I only recommend investing in bitcoin.
If you are good dealing with scalping then short term trade is always good for your investment, there's a lots of risk to take it's need good judgement and willing to accept if any miscalculations took place and you lose portions of your investment. While in long term trade, the challenge is to keep
chasing progressive projects that continue surviving even rough market is dominating the industry.
