Interested in peoples' trading styles now that we've been in a bear market for a while. Do you still believe in HODLing to another all time high? Or are you looking for other ways to make $$ during the market downturn?

I was actually a day trader, but since it is bear market, and its hard for me to predict what will happen next in the market, for now, I do long term trading and holding. its much safer than day trading. day trading has a high risk which I can have more losses than earning a profit.

Just try to create a combination between the daily trade and long-term trade. the market can't be predicted and we will be so difficult to choose or take the best decision to enter the bottom rate. Anytime crypto has been touching its new bottom rate and it could become a very difficult thing to analyze about how long it will go to the bottom. So far a lot of people are still confused about this market

Definitely, it is not so easy as we think. We have huge difference between day trading and long-term investment. The price vary everyday in daily trading where as in long-term you have lot of time and patience and you be benefited for sure. Yes hodl is the best plan in cryptocurrency as money Matters at the end of the day.

I trade occasionally, like once a week or every other day depending on the price. I'm not particularly sure how I classify. Maybe you could call this swing trading. My reason being, prices are much easier to differentiate with long time intervals of trade.

Holding is still my strategy for long term view on my bitcoin investment. The interesting part of market situation.for me is that what I am doing in bear market will be the exact same thing I'll be doing in bullish market also.

active and i use binance to trade 4h timeframes. if you set aggressive limit orders during low volume periods a lot of the time you can catch the momentum of big swings. mostly stay away from non-top 50 tokens though

Same with you, I also actively trade every day.
I have seen a lot of new coins at Binance and my experience has long been at Bittrex.

Trade is a way to make a profit by involving a lot of capital, so for now I'm trying to refrain from trading because it's roulette and the possibility of guessing is very small. but sometimes when the market goes down strongly, I try to make money from it and often it turns out it's not too bad.

At this moment I prefer to trying to be active trader, cause IMO nowadays become hodler are just a little bit risky. We don't know what happen with the market at the near future, thats why I prefer to be daily trader. To be honest I feel more comfortable to cut lost my holding investment & reinvest again in short term.

Current I see now people are becoming holder reluctantly. Because they bought at high price and can not sell, sell off, they would should they will hold. But I think instead of holder they should learn knowledge about trade to start trading increase the number of coin, tokens that they are holding data. The at downtrend such as this still there are waves when we can still rely on it that make a profit from the amount of money that we are.

I am doing a type of arbitrage between my top 5 coins. As one spikes (they do these 10-30% spikes from time to time) I sell it for the one that is down the most. If I have one that crashes down then I sell my higher performer and buy the one that just took the hit. This has been working out very good. I just pulled it off with Cindicator and Neblio. Sold Cindicator for Neblio on the huge Cindicator spike.

I I believe firmly in my coins which gives me confidence to buy when one is going down. If any fundamentals change I will bail on that coin and kick it out of the group.

I would say that I’m a proponent of holding. Know a lot of people who have taken advantage of dips and pumps to increase their bags successfully. However, that’s too much stress for me, so I HODL.

I am a long-time holder because I have my regular job. I usually do my crypto jobs right after my regular hours or during my break time so I don't have much time to do day trading.

I was trying to be mid to long-term hodler, but I am not sure for this anymore. Been reading some articles lately about swing trading and I must say I was interested in it. Maybe someday I will try.

Instead of holding trading is the best option. When market goes down and hoping that will grow again in that place trading is best way to get more profit. 2017 was the good year for holding just uptrend. Bat to see how 2018 running Sad

I am hodler, but from time to time i am traiding to increase number of my coins, but i actually don't like to trade in bear market, because after one bottom you will get second as a gift.

With the uncertain market in this time, i think we shouldn't trade. May be you will earn a little but suddenly
the market falls strongly , you will lose a lot!

I'm a hodler unfortunately, this has caused me to lose big money in the last few months since BTC and ETH took a nosedive. I'm starting to learn to day trade though, so in future I won't be so adversely affected by huge dips like this. Hodling shouldn't be the be all and end all of cryptocurrency, we should trade dynamically, learn and grow, that's how you make the real money.

Agreed - there also need to be better services for less sophisticated traders to make money. The best part about crypto is that it democratizes asset ownership, but people who want to passively participate shouldn't be forced to become advanced traders. That's what we are working on at my project, PixelAlpha
