Hello Everybody,

Please ensure me which trading way is good. I am new in trade platform that's why i don't know much about it. So, Hold trade or live trade , which trade is good ?

Thank You.

Trading is always better than holding if you have the trading knowledge and experience. Many people HODL because trading is time consuming and lots of so many moving parts but man, you can't compare trading with hodling because it is way too profitable.

I personally like to hodl myself and that is because things are simplified and easier to do. I don't care for which is more profitable because as long as I am making decent money that is alright with me.

In my opinion both methods are profitable, if you choose carefully the coins/ tokens you re going to trade or hold. Holding works for the most valuable crypto currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum, while live trading is more profitable with tokens and some other coins with less value.

It depends on your portfolio size and experience. If your portfolio size is small then you should go with hodl trading. Since, it will multiply your portfolio to a large size. In case you have atleast a Bitcoin for trading, then go with live trading on high trade volume coins. Since, even a small rise will earn you large sum of money.

Holding is best if you have the right coins that will bring gains after a longer period. Day trading could bring profits if you have the skills. You could make your daily gains with buying and selling at the right time. So, with holding you depend on whether the coin rises over a long time or not and day trading is for experienced traders.

If you feel like trading is for you, like I felt when I started to learn about crypto, than you should decide for a top coin to hold and than start learning how to trade and keep profits in the coin you hold. And alternativey you can invest one portion for trading and one just for hodling. What I want to say is that both of them are profitable, while hodling is a option for people that do not have much time and it's much easier, trading requires reading knowlegde skills experience and time. Now you should choose what suits you the most or if both suit you just go for both!

Holding is not trading. It is just an investment like bank deposits or general stock market investment. You see  value and good future in a crypto, you buy it and wait for price increase. That's not pure trading, that's investing.

To start with pure trading, you need to track the market very closely. You have to identify opportunities and then place orders in the market accordingly. It requires a lot more effort to become a trader than to become an investor.

Both strategies are good. But trading has a higher probability to generating higher income. So choose wisely based on your risk taking capability.

Long term holding should give profits. The reason people trade is to potentially gain even more. For example if your coin doubled in price then you double your money, but if you also doubled the number of coins you owned through trading, then you have 4 times the original investment. What you have to do is to learn first by starting a small amount of money to trade.

You say " hold trade ", I believe it's investment not trading. For this one you should have extra money and patience because it's looks wasting time and many people can't do it. Live trading is day trading ( not investment ), meaning every day you should open position and 2 - 3 day must take profit/ stop loss ( little range time ). If you're newbie, please choose bitcoin and use it as " hold trading " and or take eth as " live trading ". Fix your strategy until find the best for you. For more information you can research from google or trading group, but I believe " hold trade " is better. Your choice your risk and good luck with you.

That's simply not true, both of them are going back and forth depending on the situation. As of right now, if you would've held all of the coins that you would've got lets say last year you would've made out with a ton of money. If you were day trading, you WOULDNT have been holding all of your coins throughout this time so you wouldn't have seen the insane growth that the HODLers did

Though flip this the other way, if you were to enter into a BEAR market -- then day traders wouldn't be hurt as badly as HODLers


So yeah, both are good in their own situations.

I suggest a new person should start to learn live trading because live trading is a fastest way to earn money but ensure you have enough knowledge before trading or you will lost all of money if you dont have any experience, when you earn enough money you can split them into half to hold long term, that is the most effective way.

Trading is difficult for newbie. Because you don't have knowledge about the crypto market. First you should analyse what is trading and how it is work. Because holding is not a trading. This is one kind of investment so first improve yourself. Day trading is very much difficult for every user. Because you should always monitor the up to date result in market. But normal trading is quite easy when compared to day trading. So you should gain more knowledge in trading after that you proceed the day trading.

Hold or live trade is something different, I think if you want live trading volumes trading on the coin would want to buy coin coins that have many enthusiasts

But I think that for a new member who is starting gambling the best option is holding method because less chances of losing money. Once slowly accumulate knowledge of trading then can move to day trading. I usually avoid day trading because I made a good money by holding coins so far and that's why I don't go after daily profits instead wait for it to grow higher to book profits.

Each trader has their own style to do their trading activity. Each style will not always suitable to other people. After that i can not say which one is best but in my opinion i prefer holding style strategy.

Both are good as long as you bought the coins that have big potentials to increase in value in the future may it be short or long term. For those who don't have much time to actively trade then they just hold their coins because if they did their research and the coin is doing good then they would profit in the future whenever that may be but if you have the time and willing to learn whatever it takes then I suggest for you to actively trade because in this way you will learn more. Yes you may lose at times but what is important is you learned and you will know the next time what to do and not to do and then eventually you will get over with trading with emotions because it is one of the hurdles the traders have to face when they are newbie in trading.

As i dont have much time to do day trading so i prefer do holding style trading.
Day trade need much more skill and time to stay in monitor for any longer.
I dont say one of them is the best but at least all good.

Just try both so you will know what the different between day trading or holding and the level risk. But because day trading need more skill and time use money by smaller portfolio like 20% and others 80% for hodling some coin that has huge potential .

Of course holding is one of the easiest way of trading, just buy and hold out till you think profits are good enough. But the money really is at trading consistently and not holding for a long time. The returns of trading live is phenomenal. However the risks are also that high. You can lose as much as the potential to gain. If you know how to time trades right then you can earn extremely well, however that is very hard to do even for professional traders. For a newbie, I would suggest you just buy and hold.

I personally prefer daily trading, but it all depends on what I experience and also some information that I get, if a coin has good potential for the future I will try to do long-term trading for profit

Actually it's best to hold after trading instead of Live trading.If you do of trading as a part time job with the real job is the best option.You will easily get money from your real job as a salary for the trading.Actually their is no holding trading is their,you can hold the bitcoin after you had brought by trading.If you invested the independent money in bitcoin trading,you are free to hold the bitcoin.

I trade and I hold both variants are profitable. At first study the bases of the market and as he works.

Of course hold trading is better for the long term and future. Live trading is good for short term and get instant profit.
But for invest is depend on yourself. If you ready for long term and not care about the money for investment, you can choose hold trading.
Hold and live trading have a advantages and disadvantages of each others.

Actually depend on the situation of the market, if the market just like now too many FUD and bad news will be better doing day trading, because we can reduce the risk and keep the profit safe, Day trading need more consuming time and some good strategy but will be less risk than hold for situation of the market just like now. So if you have more times for trading much better learn more about day trading.

Holding is more of an investing and trading is being an active trader wherein you monitor the market most of the time. If you want to learn trading then it would be better to do day trading because you will only learn a little when you hold since you only watch the price if it already goes beyond your buy price and you are ready to sell it. When you want to learn trading, you study the market because you would want to monitor the movement of prices and you buy and sell from time to time so as time goes by, you will be familiar of the movements and know when to buy and sell and become a better trader.
