Patience trading nothing instantaneous all need patience if you already hold it good, I have an experienced friend hold the coin for a year, so if only three months seems like it's still a while. so be more patient because patience will give good results.

We shouldn’t stick to hold rule completely. There will always be opportunities to sell and buy more when it goes lower. To do this efficiently you need some experience but i am sure you will have it before too long.

I started to buy cryptocurrencies by 3 months, im a hodler as i think im not good at trading due the fact im self-learning and theres a lot things to know and not that much time.
But this not work.
Or better, maybe in the long term will be profitable but the thing i learned in this time is:

I've lost the potential to do MORE gain.

So, supposing I'm a bad trader, supposing that holding in long term will be profitable, what I'm supposed to do? Just sit on my chair and look?
I miss something, and i'm not sure that i can start to study AT, bollinger, every single coin and project, etc will be the only thing that i can do, also because shit happen, no bollinger can predict governemets, wars, Kim Jong, scammers, bitconnect and everithing else.
So i can start to study AT to help me understand better ho to look at a graphic, but will be very very long. i need to work, I've a family, time is not that much.
So I tryed to figure out what i should have done in those months to gain more and i saw that the thing i miss before everything is Rules.

I'm playng this game with no rules and is a bad bad move.
I did potentially "big" (for me, I mean) gain with some coins that i bought in october like example x25 on stellar. Now im at x6
I'm in gain 6 time now, yes, clap clap, but if I had rules i would have made more and more profit.
Supposing stellar go back at the ath, i still x25.
But if when was at x25 and start dumping i'd sold half of my stellar at -15% from the ath and bougth again only when the price start to rise again or now for example and in a couple of month or year stellar pump to ath I will be in gain 40 times or so (for shure i missed something in this equation but is only an example)

Am I just stupid or this thing that rules will work?
Any advices?

Sorry for my bad english, self learned too.

I think the problem for you is all about the timing, wrong timing will lead you to a bad result even how smart you are, how stragetic you created, all those things will be useless if you're in the wrong moment.

Everyone is losing right now (well actually not, if you're not selling you don't lose anything).
However you can't predict situations like this - most likely the market will recover in some time.
I also think that it is not necessary now to sell coins, which were earlier bought more expensive, sooner or later, I hope, again be, stable price growth will go up price and all peopl seems will be satisfied. Especially those who did not sell coins cheaply. Smiley

I think just HODL is not a good tactic. You should put a goal to reach and sell at this goal all or some of your coins/tokens. You can't gain profits just by hodling if the market crash.
And the price of a coin can't just keep increasing. Everyone wish that their coins increase indefinitely, but it is not possible as for some people, the goal has been reached.
We don't know when the crash is going to finish. You may be able to gain more profits if your coins and bitcoin prices increase. But we don't know when and if it is still possible to increase the same as last year.
You must count on your luck.

You cannot simply say you are hodling, now market decreases and you are hodling and after few days if market rises a lot then it is not about hodling.
