Long term trading may be picked by those who has no extra time to watch the price fluctuations regularly. They are people who do believe in a project or at other coins that already has good development and willing to invest and leave they investment for a longer time. Less stess with this kind of investment.

Exactly. If I believe in a project, I will keep hodling for longer time even if the price goes up.
Also people have different periods in their life, when you're on vacation, you probably don't have time to check price every hour so you sell your day traded altcoins before you go on vacation and hold coins you believe in.

There are multiple reasons behind longterm trading.
1. The coin, as soon as listed these days dumpers are dumping their coins and the actual traders purchases the coins at a lower price than the ico price. So if we sell the coins as soon as the coin list on an exchange, there is a chance of losing the money or getting less money than the expectation.
2. If we can wait few days, any project will take some time to get into good partnerships and create value to the coin, which will increase in the coin price raise
3. Also, if the price is at $0.1 when listed, and it will increase atleast double if we hold for a month. If we can hold more, there is a chance of getting more profit than the expected margin.
These are the reasons, which I experienced in the trading, not intentionally suggesting to follow the same. You can choose and decide which will be better for you.

Long-term holding is the way that real investors should choose. If the market is turbulent, you need to operate to make a profit. Experts with superb skills can do this, but it is clear that there are not many such technicians, so it is not as simple as choosing a strong token for long-term control.

Buy coins for $ 100 and a year later to sell them for $ 120, this is not a long-term trade.
It is necessary to invest millions, so that after a long time they will bring profit.
All the rest is nonsense.
And when you do not have money, but there are a couple of coins, you can just sit and pray that they will grow a thousand times.

Normally, it depends on what you have, but one thing you also have to look at like you said is that long term trading actually requires some huge funds to be able to get the best from them. Also, picking of project is important. Some will do well in terms of profit, while some will not, but for those who can at least play their cards well, I believe they should be able to do well for themselves even with small funds. However, $100k is pretty too small for anyone who wants to go the long term way except they just want to invest it and wait for as long as they can.

Thank you for the thread.
I just want to add that sometimes waiting for a target sell point is also LONG-TERM TRADING.
For example, you joined the high potential ICO (probably pre-sale) and your target is X2 of the ICO price.
The time period is not predictable. X2 could be at the start of the exchange or in 6 months.

That is a poor and sad way of wasting time. Definitely a big investment amount will bring big profits after holding an asset for a long duration of time but at the same time, asset itself holds high importance. For instance, no other coin can bring as tremendous profit as bitcoin can so even a small amount of the later one can increase capital of holder amazingly. Still, long term trading is not the most beneficial form.

But in case of bitcoin the growth rate of last year almost reached 2000%,so if someone hold the value of $100 then it will turns into $2000 so long term is quite beneficial when it comes to bitcoin, basically very long term trading is also called as holding.

If you are holding coin for long term, just be sure you are holding the right coin and the potential to grow at the right time is really expected. And what coin do I mean? These are coins with a purpose to live forever. I am holding bitcoin, ethereum, and ETC. Other coins can have potential to grow too over time just do your own research to get the right coin for long term investment.

You have detailed everything, but many people who buy and hold for a long time do it because it is more profitable instead of day trading that can bring losses and another important factor ia that are people who have lots of money, they do not need the money they invested long-term

Quote from: investeerder on May 08, 2018, 03:42:00 AM

right now since long term holding is little bit pathetic and cannot be trusted anymore due to scam alts entering the crypto market.

investing in altcoins has become much more risky

Quote from: investeerder on May 08, 2018, 03:42:00 AM

But let's assume that top 50 on market cap is the best right now but we still need to be cautious since anything might happen.

they are always changing, and there is a lot of altcoin that does not have a great use in real life

Quote from: liivii on May 08, 2018, 04:53:02 AM

because as you can see all you have to do is to invest and keep it in the wallet while waiting for years if the coin is become successful.

this works if it is with bitcoin, with altcoin the is another story, we always have to be following the news about altcoin because you never know if you can open your wallet after years and discover that your altcoin is worth nothing

I choose long term trading because long term trading create opportunities for you to gain maximally. You can buy in batches and sell Ib batches too. There is no pressure and you can also grow your position as well.

Actually long term trading/ holding is good for people who does not know how to trade.

Just like investing they can just sell it when they think the profit is enough.

Also with this strategy you do not need to worry about price dips/crash because history shows that Bitcoin/stable coins will rise in the future.

It is actually the best for those who really do not have much idea about trading, but it still requires you to always have some strategy even with the long term trading as well. At least, you should know some basic stuff like supports and resistance, know how to use some of the indicators for long term divergence and at least also know how to manage some risk and when to sell.

All these things require some knowledge but apparently not as much as what a professional trader would need.

people have choice what kind of investment they want depends of the people many cryptocurrency enthusiast choosing both buying new cheapr coins in very low price and waiting to become increase in long term holding.

aside from long term hold specially those the people complete knowledge how make money in the day trading working 8 hours a day of higher hours to monitor the price value of the coin which the best had possible to increase within a day.

Yeah everyone has different choices and it depends on some aspect, for me why people choose more on long term investment? first because it is safer and less risky, then you don't need special skills like daytrading required, you just need to be patient and wait longer, otherwise the profit earned will also be quite big as you wait for higher prices

The reason many seasoned trader choose long term trading as against short term is simply because er time in cryptocurrency market your asset become mature and development that follows such maturity bring so much value.

I agree with some of the things you have said with long term trading and I would want to buttress on the fact that it takes some level of knowledge as well for anyone who wants to at least thread this path most especially in this cryptocurrency world.

Many people just pick any coin or token to invest in based on their quantity and not the quality and that is pretty absurd as they are the types that always end up bag holding shit coins. One thing I like about long term trading though is the fact that it separates you from all the crazy noise in the market as all you just have to do is to look for the accumulation period and buy in and wait for those FOMO periods.

Yeah good thoughts mate. Now I know very well that what I do is just holding and nothing else. I do capture the best sells in between when it comes to high rates per coin whichever it is, and then again buy and add more coins thus making it compound investment. So it's like more secure and pushing ahead type of trading. Each time I add more and more coins into it thus making the holding portfolio better each time. Off course it works best when o give some time for it to grow eventually.

These are good points from you. I also suggest for long term trade as in these type of trade we do not lose because the price go rise in long term. While sometimes it is better to remain short term as in some coins there is not much future.
