Bitcoin Forum

Dear forum members, what investment strategy to ICO you practice? Sell when you get x2 or expect more growth, such as X10? Previously, I invested in ICO and waited for a long 1-2 years to get a big profit, for example X10. Now I have chosen a different strategy. I invest in ICO, then wait 1-3 months and if the project yields x2, then I immediately sell the coins and put them in a new project, which also do not wait long, and sell coins with the growth in x2, thus my profit in nearly a year in a falling market has increased 16 times and I expect that by the end of the year will increase the portfolio up to 64 times. How do you like this strategy? Respond! Write how you do? And what do you think about this strategy?

Take profit and reinvesting into a new project is a good strategy, but I just want to remind you that every investment made in ICO projects  is the same as taking risks, I think you also need to create a strategy to overcome the bad possibilities
As a holder, I think I don't have a specific strategy to invest in ICOs, I only have a target for the price and how long I hold, and that can change "depends on the progress of the project"

I am not sure that all this will work as you described, but it is possible to get good profit from ICOs, if you will choose good project. And it is not easy task, as you need some experience. I am looking at IcoGuide.com rates, they are not paid, but it is not enough, you need to look to the depth of each project.

I will say its a good strategy, however, it will not hold for every ICO investments. Over the time, ICO investments have moved in downtrend, the prices after listings goes below ICO prices, until n unless you are a private investor and get huge bonus, the strategy can instead turn your investments in loss.

For me, ICO investments more or less depends upon how fundamentally strong the project is and how are the market sentiments towards it. If they are fundamentally strong like NEO, ETH, I dont mind holding them for years.. On the other hand, if I see market sentiments go bad like Endor due to bad token metrics or false claims, I come out of those projects immediately.

in the investment in the project of ICO, in fact I myself never had a special strategy. I am only investing in projects that actually I'm sure will be a success. Least softcap already reached, or even far from the softcap. This project I need to strive for investment.

I agree. Everything depends on the quality of the project and its idea. Some tokens are well worth keeping for a longer period, as they can bring a much larger profit than if you sell them in 2 months. Other tokens in turn are worth pouring off at the first pampas, as they can only bring further losses.

I think in the deal in the mission of ICO. I investing on those project which I can shine. slightest softcap already attain or even away from softcap. This project I require to endeavor for investment.

I use a similar strategy but not with 100% of my coins. I put them on a sale for twice my investment for 75% of my coins while the rest 20% are placed at the rate of 5% on each x3, x5, x10, x20 and rest 5% as reserve for when I want to.

Well investment in ICOs projects needs long time at least six month to getting maximal profit based on my experience, for investment in ICOs projects is middle term Investment because it is not fast way to getting large of profit in short time, ICOs is not suitable for short term investment. The ICOs is good for middle and long term investment, if we want get fast profit trading activity is best choice than investing in ICOs.

There is no single investment strategy for all ICO. All ICOs are different from each other therefore different stratagies should be applied.

I beleive that You have to apply different strategy for defferent ICOs. Each ICO has it's own nature and every ICO is versatile and those are designed that way. So, you can't really maintain one strategy for every ICO.

Well this strategy is working for maybe but may not work for others. Every time choosing a new ICO is like taking a big risk. What if you don't get 2X profit and rather be at a loss by 3X or 4X. The strategy is too risky I must say.

Bring benefit and reinvesting into another undertaking is a decent system, however, I simply need to advise you that each speculation made in ICO ventures is the same as going for broke, I think you likewise need to make a technique to defeat the awful potential outcomes

I concur. Everything relies upon the nature of the venture and its thought. A few tokens are well worth keeping for a more extended period, as they can bring a significantly bigger benefit than if you offer them in 2 months. Different tokens, thusly, merit pouring off at the primary pampas, as they can just bring further misfortunes.

According to me, your strategy is a very good one. After getting profit, using it to a different field is very smart decision. But you have to keep in mind that there are risks in the crypto market. So, you will have to deal with it.

I like your strategy very much. Investing in different projects with the profit is very wise. But if you ask me about my strategy, I always try to invest in the coins and tokens that has rising price and try to hold them. But I have to keep in mind that this crypto market is very risky as the price is not always the same, we all need to deal with the change of prices.

I don't usually rely on any strategy. Just use my instinct on buying or selling coins or tokens. I try to hold the coins that have good and rising values. But I like your idea very much. I might try the idea soon. Thanks for sharing.

Even the best brokers and investors rarely make more then x2 or x3 per quarter and that only when the winds are very favourable. There is no point on selling that this is easy. However, having a strategy is probably an important step for anyone who decides to make a strong push for making a living out of investing in crypto.

If it does work out for you then it is cool.
But look, there are a lot of ICO's now and you cannot be sure what a scam and a legitimate one is. Plus, they all not end up getting profit for x2 or x4 in just 3 months.
Some of them, (even the good ones) when listed in an exchange will get a bad market.
It will always depend on that point. If it goes way below the ICO price then where you at.

Never invest everything specially if you made profit already at the start. Leave something for ROI.

I don't always follow the same strategy. The strategies can be different for different projects. If i think the project will make more benefits for me then i hold, otherwise i sell the coins.

You can't invest much money in good ICOs now because good ICOs have small individual caps and Proof-of-Loves.
Pre-sale stage has vesting or locks. So when your deposit will be big (more then 50 ETH) you will have some problems with investing in good ICOs (there are small number of good ICOs and too much ETH in your deposit).

Now I use simple effective strategy:
- sell 50% on x2
- sell 25% on x3
- sell 12.5% on x4
- hodl for long term last 12.5% (more then 1 year)

If ICO is trading under ICO price after listing on exchange I buy more when price is 0.5x and HODL.

I prefer selling the coins whenever i get some good profit. And i also try to invest them on some other good projects like you. But there are exceptions when i hold the coins for more profit.

It depends on the research and the situation. But most of the time i sell coins after getting a good benefit but i keep a portion to see the growth of the coin. This is my most used strategy.

I do sell after hitting on first exchange, and after the price really dumps, (it is expected), I will buy back the 50 percent of I gained in selling its coins. And store it for a long term, as long as it is a good ico campaign.

i always monitor the strength and hype of the coin/token once it hits exchanges. there are a lot of factors and each case is unique. it also depends on the overall market. if an ICO lists at a large premium in this market i will definitely sell right away

This is a really great strategy and it simply implies that you can make money in a bearish market. Sometimes, the duration for hodling a coin depends on the progress made with the project. For some, you just have to flip and move on..

It is necessary to choose a good ICO which gave such a profit as 64 +. I do not even know what kind of company. Is there such a project in fact. In our time, the existing ICO can not even get to the stock exchange, what is there to say about such a huge profit.

I have been doing that for a long time now. I use the same strategy for investing in coins too. But, you cannot deny the risk of investing on ICOs anymore. Because, if you choose to reinvest your profit on 2-5 different ICOs every time you make profit from previous investments, then the chances of falling for a scam will get high too.

As what i have been seen inany projects that raising an ico mate is when it will have some some value in some exchanges, in the first month of it will suffer of dumping its prices because of many bounty hunters and airdrops will instantly sell their coin to get profit. But if they are finish selling, thats the time that the coin will recover its price so just hold. 

investing in ico is one of the profitable investment. if we can choose the good ico then we will get the legit ico. it all depends on how we can choose ico well. by following legit ico, the results will also be satisfying. but if we can't choose well then we can get a scam ico.

Calculate your risk and assess the idea of the company, use telegram to your advantage

if I invest in ico and get x2 in 1 month - 3 months i will sell 50% of my assets, because it is quite profitable and ROI. and if the coin / token has good potential, i will hold for long-term or i will use the remaining 50% of my assets for daily trading

Yet most of the current ICO's have fallen below the offering price.
So I think you're overly optimistic because the whole market is not doing well.

That is not really a foolproof strategy according to me as you haven't really explained how you have managed to avoid the fraudulent ICOs that all the community is falling for. The newcomers often complaint that they are losing a lot of money because of the ICOs that are just scams. I agree that making such small investments can bring a lot of profit but there remains a high risk due to the current situation of ICO market.

in investing in the world of cryptocurrency we must be able to choose a good strategy in order to get a big profit. we know that investing in cryptocurrency is not an easy thing. we must be able to analyze and read the market well. that way we will be able to choose the right time to buy and sell the coins.

It is a good strategy provided you pick good ICOs in the market. What I do is, I invest in good ICOs and hold long term so that the project can mature, this way I have time in my hands to get other work done.

I am dam sure there is nothing like this gonna happen ever again. I mean there is no ICO which can literally give you X64 profits mate, I wont believe it unless and until I see it with my own eyes.

These kind of ICO's are no longer exists and there is only few % of chance that you will see anything like that in the time to come. Expecting from the ICO's is okay but how much to expect is big question and it does depend on many factors per se.

I would say if ICO's even give you double than what you invested then also you should take that and be happy with it.

Now it is very dangerous to invest money in ICO , 55% have not collected almost anything. A lot of scammers + prices after the listing make - 5-10x, which is also not happy. If you liked ICO , I would advise you to buy tokens after the listing.

right re investing is the best way in this kind of market now,we have no assurance in newly created coins/tokens from ico that good to hold instead more of them are dying each day thats why for me buying and selling of those is much better than holding unless you will get the top coins for holding

I prefer holding the tokens for short period of time and get at least twice the amount I have invested and later reinvest the money on some other ICO that I find to be promising. But, their is a pull back of falling for bad ICOs which can actually cause a good amount of loss if not analyzed properly before investing.

The best way will be to see the project and see if it is unique or not. Analyze and ponder on the idea to see if it will be there in the long run or not.

Reinvestment is nothing new. But this is a risky strategy, the default ICO you invest all the success. But the market is constantly going lower than when you just invested. Then how can you reinvest when you are not profitable. And you will be stuck just like the market now

This depends from people to people. Some goes with their instincts, some see the demand it has in the market among the people while some see the quality of the project and sees if it will be worth it in the long run.

Don’t need any specific strategy. You only need to choose a good project then you can earn profit easily. Because profits are depends on quality project.

This is really good idea but all you need that is creating new strategy which will save you from loss and risk based on this reinvestment in ICO is also same because it is risky.

Yeah I also believe in this kind of strategy.If we have the right investment strategy to choose the right coin in the right time, it may gives you that kind of profits. As noted, it will take longer time and you must be more and more big patient. But, we must be careful in choosing the right coins to get this kind of profits.

It seems a good strategy. Hope it goes well. But a good project idea, market experience and how strong the project is fundamentally is very much important to make profit from it.

"In the investment of ICO project, I don’t have any special strategy.I just follow one
strategy that, buy ICO’s and hold the best coins and add more when the price goes
down.
"

"Invest wisely and just invest in some amount you can afford to lose. And try to keep
it HOLD.
"

I must say this is a very good strategy that one can follow. Sometimes waiting for too long may lead to state where price is not good but selling regularly may face less impact of the price of the market

Well I don’t follow this procedure. But I like the way describes your strategy. It seems really lucrative. I follow traditional buying, delaying, selling process and I also find healthy profit

Sound like a beginner investor/trader to gamble like that it's your money to trust it purely from your instinct and most likely your going to lose it or getting scammed, don't rely on luck or instinct alone, research, observe, strategize and diversify to win it, for the OP you can do a simple strategy to gain more from ICO, look for a promising ICO that runs a bounty campaign/airdrop wait for the exchange release, most likely your going to witness cheap tokens under ICO price.

It looks like a very profitable strategy. But I am not sure that this is as simple as you have described. When you sell in short time it’s hard to get the right timing because within short time price doesn’t differ much always

if you want to progress in a business then you must have a better plan and strategy, without a proper plan you never can achieve success so we must have a systemic plan like knowing the market and understand the move properly all this will help you

I like your strategy. and it will really bring you more profit. I also wait a few months and then sell tokens, because it is unknown what will happen in the long term.

I know ICO do well but I'm not sure what you described. If price increases 64 times, then it will be profitable and good sign. But you should be study more if you want to benefit from the ICO project.

I feel myself lacking of knowledge and experience to just analyse ICO so closely that I will understood that it has potential to give an 64x so in most of the cases in my opinion I will just lose money if I'll be trying to do that.

"
ICO will increase the price and profit will be guaranteed. But it is not certain how much profit will be given. If your description is correct then it will be very good. I think the ICO can do this. But before the investment, we have to check. Then we will benefit."

It is difficult to predict the ICO, but analyzing the past year's ICO shows that it will do something good in the future. Even 64 times the price can increase. I think its future will be profitable.

If you will invest in ICO you should look in the bigger picture of the project. Don't just settle for a fewer growth with those hype speculation, the longer you invest the bigger you get in the future. Although you need to do this if the project has a good product with adoption and supportive team. Aim bigger while you had the opportunity to invest at lower price.

Well you have a very nice strategy and i love doing the same thing. The truth is, i want to have a good profit here bu.t I never aim to reach that x64 of my money. At least times 10 and is is enough for me for now since i don't really have enough money to invest with. What i did is by participting in bounty and then Hold the tokens i received from it.

I think it is not that easy to find an ICO who will be giving at least 2 x from the ICO price right now in 2018 because 90% of icos that I have participated in are now trading 5x less than the price which has during ICO.

I think your strategy is good. From my point of view, it is better to sell the ico when it is giving a decent profit and then investing the money in a new project. It keeps your money in a constant cycle and it reduces the risk. I would like to suggest you to try to invest in multiple project which will help you to reduce total risk.

If it’s really work it should be very helpful to get benefit from ICO. But it’s tough to find out promising ICO. And if anyone apply this they must be needed some experience.

to get the profit from investing in ico, we have to be able to choose the ico that legit. in choosing ico that is legit we must have our own strategy. after that, we also have to be able to manage coins that we get well in order that we can make them more profitable. therefore, we will get a bigger profit.

If I own is still rare for investment. As I also have yet to quite a lot of capital. So there is no special strategy to me. It's just that we need to be vigilant if a lot do want to always benefit when investments.

There many newbie’s are interested to invest on ICO because it’s the only platform where any investor can be benefitted early. For those people this process will be helpful but If it’s not able to work then it will gone wrong`

In ICO there are many investor invest for their project they need to be strategic for a good profit .As a investor I have some strategy I always see the situation of the current market than I invest , sometime I take risk also
