I think direct ownership provides income where prices rise high, and that is a risk-free method to generate income. The same time trading requires continuous purchases and sales that utilize price fluctuations. Sometimes it's not advice and can be held and it may not be bad sometimes to cut losses by selling well.

that the problem bro, we dont know about future, you might able to predict it, but it will not always accurate, sometime miss.
and if you hold fiat money until 2 last week, you can buy much coin in the deep price and sell it for late year, but yeah this is crypto anything can happen.

I think this is the good time to buy more coins in this downtrend of the market, There are so many coins are good and are available at their down price that makes your investment into the maximum profits that are why I suggest to buy some good coins and hold it until December for good profit.

What I mean by straight HODL is that your hold through the crashes and the rises until you inevitably cash our and by trading I mean that you hold for a few months and then sell into fiat and wait for the expected dip/recession.
What i've noticed over the past years is that if I was less greedy and just cashed out after a reasonable profit and then held until the inevitable crashed, I would have made much more money than if i just held or bought another coin. 

An example of this is when I bought eth at 475 and sold at 1380.  Right after I sold I bought ltc at 230 thinking that it was gonna skyrocket after some of the money from the eth will flow back into the other coins.  The problem with that was that the entire market crashed and so if I were to just hold my fiat i would have been able to easily double my money. 

Let me know what your guys's thoughts are on this.
The market is fluctuating continuously and is in crisis when the price of bitcoin and altcoin are constantly decreasing. I believe that at this point hold will not be able to bring you profits, the market is in downtrend stage so I believe you should only invest short and bitcoin on trading. I believe bitcoin prices will probably continue to fall sharply from now until 2018.

I think both are profitable if we make it at the correct time. Straight hold needs to keep more patience and money as well but day trading needs the minimum amount of dollar for trading. Straight hold can give you a very big amount of profit but day trading can’t. Day trading has low risk but straight holding has high risk. For straight holding, we need to predict correctly if the market goes down or up but in day trading need to watch market some quick.

If the market keeps going up, HODL will perform better but if it is the way it is since the beginning of this year trading results will be better provided your brokers allows you to short it.

The simplest rule that you need to understand in investments is always to fix the profit, you do not need to believe that your asset will constantly grow. Your Deposit has doubled, cash out immediately 100% and wait for the next growth of another 100% and do so every time, then choose another asset.

Always applying the same strategies is bad for efficiency. The same strategies are not always applied. Sometimes you need to go for a strategy change and that change increases this gain and efficiency. This situation saves you from entering the loss and the situation I'm talking about is viable for nowadays, the market is so unstable for right now, therefore I suggest you do hodl for now.


I have seen this comment many times now and I think that depending on any bot is not a good decision for a trader. It is good to have computers doing task as these speed up our work but trading needs not to be done in a hurry. Besides, nothing on Earth can really compete human brain. Bots do not have intuitions and IQ like we have.
This is another form of digitalization, but I think human brain made computers, computers didn’t make human brain. We are always more active and accurate than these computes. Although they are much helpful to human race but still we must do something on our own that is the only way for becoming successful. They are programmed and can’t go outside that boundary.

I think the straight holding is good thing to do but it is obvious that it is too risky
because we can’t say what will happen next unlike in trading business there’s a assurance of earning an income daily.

Holding is the best way for you to break through the moment, the market is extremely difficult, may recover in the near future, so trust not to give up too soon.

What would have saved me, or at least the value of my wallet, would have been the proper use of stoplosses. I've lost a lot on the way down, would have been better to get stopped out a couple of times and buy back lower.

I think now the holding is better and this decision will make you billionaire once the bitcoin listed on the stock exchange and the price will be more than the thought about bitcoin and crypto now.

If the decision to hold is a factor that will help you succeed in the big future, just hold onto waiting for the market to rise again, it will never be hard for you to profit from the cryptographic market. I think the end of this year will be the price increase of all the coins
holding is easy , but the most difficult thing is controlling our emotion and psychology while looking bearish market.beginner investor usually become panic with this condition.
if you ready to hold you must be prepared for anything that will happen with your investment, maybe don't open market that list coin which you invested. it is can help better than be panic and do wrong things

My thought on holding my coins straight than trading it, it is the best to hold your coins right now because the market is low, and be patience to wait to have a good value again.

If we hold, we take too much time, can wait long and do not know when they can rise again. But if we do not wait and decide to sell early, the price of coins is very low
