There is no auto-compound In Pancakeswap farms so you must harvest to take the rewards. But every time you harvest you pay a small fee, so what do you think is the best strategy to harvest your rewards?

Once a week?

If you have staked a small amount then it is worth a penny to harvest every week. In my opinion it is better to harvest once a month regardless of the amount you staked.

The percentage APR shows big but actually the amount you earned shows less when you harvest weekly. It is better to gain profit monthly or every three month.

I don't think there is anyone who doesn't use gwei or gas for swap cutting or sending, I hope this is appropriate

I always buy the latest altcoins on pancakeswap, such as titan, LMOOSE，etc.
I'm very happy to be able to get huge wealth.

I don't have any experience with this but when it comes to investments in compounding, I'm all in for it. Anyway, do you really have to have that auto-compound thing? Maybe you can just manually do it and change what you invest/harvest with your investment? And then once you had enough and you have your strategy towards withdrawing, then you can save up with the fee. Is it not possible?

No, because compounding manually is very expensive, specially with small amounts. For example, if your reward is 1 dollar per day and every day you harvest and then you add your reward in your pool, you will spend more than half of your reward in fees every day.

That's why i am looking for the best strategy in this process.

Usually, auto-compounding is available only for pools, not for farms. So that's right about paying fees whenever we harvest our rewards from farms. Though farms are quite risky because of price volatility of those pairs. TBH, one week is great for harvesting but we could do it daily if we get huge rewards because of staking high volumes in those farms, IMHO.  ;)

The answer would also depend on what you are going to do with the harvested token and the current price. You would likely harvest your earned CAKE as soon as possible when you see price dropping quickly from $40 to $30 to $10. Sell at $30+ and buy back at $10+ then stake or farm. The effect of fees on your pocket in this case would be minimal.

So basically, don't harvest every day and just let it bear fruit continuously and just prune it once you had enough? Or the rewards won't take over unless you prune it?

Did you invest a lot in this?

This is ideal so you can save on gas fees. The "enough" is subjective but it should be a lot more than the cost of harvesting.

The rewards pending harvest is like cash sitting in your wallet. It doesn't give you anything unless you harvest and reinvest it again to a staking pool or to another farm.

A staking pool on auto-compound is different. You won't spend to harvest every now and then just to increase the amount you staked initially.

A little bit more than 1k in pancake and smaller amounts in other farming projects. Just trying to find what is the best method.

Till now i am sure for two things.

1. You must never harvest daily because of the fees

2. You never enter a new farm with a "shitcoin" the first days. It's 100% that it will go up for 2-3 days because of the hype and then it will fell dramatically, so if you buy it just for the farming you will lose more than 30-50% because of the dump.

In my opinion staking and specially yield farming is a huge "economic world" with many paths.

As long as your not risking too much of your portfolio that could affect your lifestyle, you can do whatever you want and maybe you can stumble upon something that is really worth something.

Maybe if you can take advantage of that coin by either looking for a way to get it before it releases or buy when it's super dumped and hope for the best for it to go up. Something like that lol.

I do believe it's one of the paths that we could take so that we don't get too "energy-hungry" and be blamed for the environment lol.

Why bother manually harvesting farms when you can just auto-compound pools? Seems like the higher % rate and savings of automatically compounding would be advantageous for those holding to earn interest. Do you find that you earn more than just auto-compounding CAKE in a pool and staking BNB?

for me personally, I just want to secure my profit, first things first are my ROI, I will dump every single day until I reach my ROI..the first a few hours-days can be very high APY, if it satisfy my need and I think already make a profit, I will take out MY lp and go find another farm.

it depends a lot on the amount that one has invested under a few dollars in value it makes no sense to harvest, let's say that i make withdraws as soon as 1 cake is reached, it seems to me a good strategy

I harvest once a month if I don't need money, but if I need it I usually wait for 2 weeks, the longer I harvest I think it's more productive than in a week, but if I get a profit faster I usually harvest and cultivate new land

I am not sure if is better to invest in a pool than in a pair in a yield farm. Do you think is better?

I used to harvest in 2 weeks but as I've realaized I think that it is more profitable to just wait for a month since I don't really need money plus It's not that much of a money in my case since I only put in a small amount. I'm actually still nee to it and I'm still experimenting.
