hello experts,
                   Is it more profitable to Hold BTCBTC or buying a lower price and selling at higher?
Thanks,

I'd say holding is much more profitable for a long term strategy but that shouldn't be the only thing you do, you should accumulate more, like buying on monthly basis or whenever you can.

Both of these things hold a very different significance:

HOLD: Holding is for those who can hold for some really long duration because holding means patience, it's like tenacity that needs too much time to break and Bitcoin is like God who rewards us for the dedicated time. It's for investors only who never "will to get out early".

Buy/Sell: Trading with bitcoins is differently important because without it, markets can't move. It's for traders but there are specific points that need to be known by you to be able to buy at correct times and sell at correct values, then buy back in at better values again if not exact. ;)

it depends on you!
some people don't know how to trade and don't have the talent for it either. if they start buying low and selling high strategy (aka trading) there is pretty good change that they will be losing money instead. so the obvious choice here is holding or long term investment.

but if you have the experience and time for trading then of course buying low and selling high or the more preferable strategy to sell high and buy back more at the bottom to keep your profit in bitcoin not in fiat, is the strategy to use since it is more profitable for you in that case.

It depends if you have any trading expertise. If you don't then holding is much more likely to be more profitable. Trading without experience isn't much better than gambling. You will find it very difficult to buy low as there is fear in the market. Equally, you'll find it difficult to sell high because there will be market euphoria. The only way to escape these emotions and profit is to look at the market professionally. It will take time to do that. Therefore, holding is going to be much more profitable for most people.

Most of people who own a stores buy something they know that will have a higher demand in the upcoming week or month.

It is like bitcoin, you buy bitcoin at a lower price and then wait for it to have a good price and sell it for you to have a good profit. And then when you sold it, you wait for another dump and do the same thing over and over again.

If you can predict both entry and exit price point during huge price swing than you can multiply your bitcoin but if you fail to do so than you will actually loss more compared to what you can easily get by just holding all your bitcoin for 2-3 years or more than that.

If you want to be passive investor than bitcoin is idle for you.

So lets be smart to take an opportunities to make better. But you can do for both, I mean's go but a bitcoins now (You can assuming as now's the lowest price), then you can start to keeping your money / bitcoins as future or deal with long terms(profitable).  That is are totally depends on your-self.

it's different, hodl and buy / sell. hodl if you hold a coin with long term. buy / sell can be said trading. buy at lace price in the not-too-distant future.

Thank you all for your replies . Iam not an expert trader but sometimes when I see some ppl talking about making x amount of money selling btc when its rising , I feel iam missing out. Last time I bought it when it was around 7200 $ and then the price dropped under 6k , I did hold it then as I didn't want to take a loss.

Hodling is the better strategy I think unless you have a ton of capital behind you and are a skilled trader. Otherwise it is quite hard to time the markets and doing wrong could leave you in an unwanted position. I myself

bought once and have been looking to make trader moves but I cant bring it to pull the trigger.

ok great will hold for now until 2018 and see how things workout. Thanks

Empirically you are correct. Simply holding coins has proven to be more profitable, given the trading performance of the average market participant. BUT, if you can trade these dips. there is a world of additional percent gain that can be achieved, if used in addition with a longer term hodling strategy. speculation is so profitable here that cats are leavin Wall Street, the end all of jobs, to come trade crypto. the volatility is that real. but the typical guy that would trade is not a Wall Street, its someone that has never been formally learned on trading.

hence the price. hence the volatility.

so it boils down to "well, can you trade?", if not, then tuck those coins away and forget about them, OP ;D

I depends on what amount of bitcoin you own and how much profit you want. If you want "rapidly" profit you can buy when it is low and sell when it is higher but for this you got to have a lot of free time to check the price and dont miss any good moment to buy.

Investing on a long term is safer and you dont have to make any effort like checking at the price every hour. You just buy bitcoin and keep them in the wallet for a period of time that you choose. It is important to have patience and dont panic if the price falls. Just keep the bitcoins in wallet and forgot about them for the period you choosed to keep the investment

Buy it and hold it - timing it is not an easy thing to do. Most people fail at it

One is investment where you buy and hold it for years or as per your requirement. Where you do not monitor much on daily basis . Other is called trading where you need to be active daily and keep finding opportunity to buy low and sell high and to get it right you will be rewarded with profits. Both are equally interesting.

Everyone says buy low and sell high but very few can sell at the peak and buy at the trough. Do not sell after a large drop as you will probably end up having to buy back at a higher price.

I think you should hold till next major high and sell there may be till 8500$.
Again when it is near 5000$ to 6000$ you should buy.

Both strategy works actually. For buying at low price and selling at higher price, you must have the knowledge to analyse the market and time to keep track of the news so that you can catch the buying and selling price. You are able to earn from the price fluctuations in this case.

Holding BTC is less time consuming and less risky.

If you have that much faith in bitcoin I suggest buy low sell high. Buy bitcoin whenever there is news that bitcoin will dumped like Government ban on bitcoin in a certain country and Bitcoin will be overcomed by Bitcoin Cash then sell when you think the price becomes stable or reached your certain goal profit.

Ok great , thanks again for all ur expert opinions , I will hold for now on my ledger nano until first qtr of 2018 and then analyse.

Holding Bitcoins can be also called "Long time investment" It's better to hold some bitcoins along the way if you can last long without even touching your money.
From buying and selling you can earn something but, for a short time and if you do get lucky you may earn alot. buy at low then sell at high or buy at low then hold till the next price range is passed. wait for bitcoin to get low then buy some. check the speculation board to get some ideas when to buy or sell.

it is impossible to say so unequivocally, it is better to trade, of course, but if you are a busy person you do not have much free time, then it is better to keep it simply. you need to share the risks.

With such sharp changes in the cost of bitcoin, and at the same time its unchanged growth in price, it is advantageous to keep bitcoin in the long term, and to trade it on the exchange using its high volatility. However, trading on exchanges requires certain theoretical knowledge and practical skills, otherwise it may end up with significant losses.

I am personally will buy at lower price and of course sell it after the price higher. Ok you can hold after you have enough bitcoin to invest. but if you late and the price too high like nowadays against your budget ,and also you only have small amount. It is better to wait the price lower and buy it. Good luck :)

As you are not a trading expert I would recommend you to just hold it if you believe in the system for the long run.

It is pretty hard to go out with profit from bitcoin trading and most of the people ends up losing more then they would if they were just holding the bitcoins( or making less money then they would make by just holding).

I think that if you are not basing your trading decisions on any knowledge or indicators, then you are pretty much a gambler, and you better hold your bitcoins before you miss up a huge gain.

There is no question that holding bitcoin is really profitable specially if you bought it at a very discounted price and then holding it for long term. But it should not discourage you to not buy when their is a dip to accumulate more bitcoin. So its a win-win strategy. Personally, I think that both methods meet the ends - to earn and to profit. So you can't be wrong whatever method you pick.

That's a good strategy, in the meantime, think of buying more bitcoin whenever possible.
Buy low and sell high strategy is not as simple as you think. What will you do when the value keeps trending in one direction so "what look like high prices one day may look like low prices another day".

Hold about 50% of your investment, or more if you are conservative, and the rest can use to make trade, without trade the market does not move.

It really depends on how much time you want to invest. Trading requires not only training, experience and a bit of luck, it also takes a lot more time than simply buying and holding.

if there is time to sit in front of the computer, then you can trade. but I earned more when I just HODL!!!
take care of your nerves)

it is better to hold it because price increase fast and when buy/sell you will reduce many income in fee

The second one can be described as trading, and while it's much more profitable than just hodling, when executed perfectly, it comes with a risk of losing your money - i.e. you can sell and it will only go higher, or you can buy and it will crash shortly after. In general, it's better to just hodl, because to succeed in trading you have to spend all your time on it doing different researches - for most people it's better to just work their job and use their salary to buy more BTC, or simply put some portion of their saving one time and wait for long term gains.

I've always kept 50% in BTC and use my other 50% for trading.

Both are profitable. But it depends on you. If you have much patience then hold is better. When the price rate grow up then you sell it. Or if you have much free time then buy/sell is better. But you need to check price rate at every hour. When the bitcoin price lower, you buy and when the price higher, you sell.

you know what is main problem here ?
that yo don't know future how far it will go and how far it will fall same time.
And market can rekt you easly.
Imagine that you sold BTC at 1500$ you want get back at 1200$ but now price is 1800 and wont back... then you need wait to get another entry which is hard to find.
Then you need add all fees 0.4%... x10 4% x100 40%!!!!! year you fucked yourself at 40% becouse of active trading :D

For me holding for a long period is more profitable but if the person don't have much capital trading is good enough. Holding needs large amount of capital because your money will be idle for a long period but it can assure a good return aftersome quite time. With trading you can earn good but you should be wise and make a lot of research in choosing your target market

Yes you're right.I prefer to hold BTC now rather than buy and sell it.IMO it really depends on how much you know in trading and how skillful you are.If you buy bitcoin with $3k below then sell it at the current price,then its a very big profit already.But since i'm not a good trader,i'll just keep and hold my bitcoin even just a year or two and then wait for my profit in the end.I'm sure it would still bring a huge profit too without doing any risky movements.

If you are skillful and lucky enough as well as being able to invest the time to accurately buy in the dips and sell at the peaks then definitely it will be more profitable than simply holding bitcoin. However it's a much more difficult strategy to execute. You yourself need to decide what's best for you in terms of your skillset and the level of risk and time investment you would like.

If you are hodl something there is possibility the price will increase and you can sell your btc. if you have low bitcoin better to hodl instead of exchange it .  You only thing to sell your bitcoin if the price is low so the price became high.

Yes of course, this will make your amount of Bitcoin increases over time. So with the amount incease will lead to a profit.

Yes sure no doubt that whenever you feel that the price is falling so you are supposed to hold it for a while and sell it when the desired price is is achieved but much better is the online trade that means to invest in digital trade you can earn handsome amount in return.

I think its more profitable to buy bitcoin, put it in a wallet and forget about it... Let it sit there for years don't do anything with it. What you are referring to is trading. As far as I'm concerned its the fastest way to lose money. But unfortunately its very popular here. That's the main reason you see people who have been here since 2011 but are not multi millionaires. Its because they thought they could predict the markets... The reality is, noone can... Also, life tends to get in the way. So even when we think we will replace the funds and buy lower, it never happens.

both of them are profitable but still depends on the amount of bitcoin you hold  or your current capital to buy bitcoin.  yet i guess its more profitable if you hold bitcoins  plus your also buying when theres a dip because your keep stacking your balance and your potential income while doing them both.

I think you are pertaining to one thing because when you hold your bitcoin you probably sell them when the price goes higher the only difference is I think the other thing is about short term holding because you can't avail to hold your bitcoin for a long period. But one thing is sure both will give you good profit just have the proper timing to sell

The key here is not what but when, or in short the right timing. You should know when to hold and when to buy and sell. Attitude is also everything. You cannot be too emotional in playing this cryptocurrency. Try to risk and assess well base on the charts. The challenge with buy and sell is the transaction fee, so you also have to consider that. Just remember that it does not matter if the prices are going down, as long as you are not yet selling it at that rate then loss is still unrealized. Hold it for longer until the market performance went better.

I would subscribe to buy low and selling high rather than holding in your wallet and keeping long term and the reason is simple. Bitcoin price is volatile if your long term is 6 months, then there is enough time within the period of keeping the bitcoin there and the expected time of maturity.

During this period a lot of high and low periods would have been witnessed which means a lot of opportunities would have been created that an individual would catch into an possibility of multiplying his btc is endless. Doing it on a platform that allows fiat exchange and vice versa makes that a possibility. Profit is sure after 6 months but much more profit is guaranteed with the right timing of decision making.

I think holding and buy sell both is good but holding takes a long time to earn profits while buying at low prices and selling when high prices will get a faster profit

Theoretically trading may be more profitable, if one is able to predict price movements, but it requires a lot of skills, experience, time and a bit of luck. I've tried both and I prefer to hold and buy more at the dips. With the long-term upward trend of bitcoin I'm very reluctant to sell because there is always a possibility that I would never be able to rebuy at a lower price.

buy some with money that you already afford if the price will down and not all your money, hold it or maybe think that you not save any bitcoin, wait for the future, spend some money on buy - sell bitcoin with short trade, and the rest for back ups, daily life, etc

actually it depends on the situation and conditions, if you buy it when bitcoin price is still at 2000 usd, you better to hold it, but now bitcoin price is at 7000 usd, i think being a fast trader currently is more profitable.

Same here, I am holding BTC for the long term because I am not an experienced trader and I find holding for the long term to be more profitable.

I cant believe you actually need to ask this question. Obviously buying lower and selling higher is going to be more profitable than just holding, because you are essentially trading for profit as opposed to not profiting off of the swings. If you profit off every swing you will end up with more BTC than if you just hold, but the problem comes, or challenge rather, is that if you make mistakes judging the market then you could end up selling when the price is going up but it continues rising too high and you need to buy back in, or you could buy in at the top and it crashes right after and you will lose money. HODLing stops this from happening, so it is less risky, and you know what they say... bigger the risk, bigger the reward, but also could come back to haunt you, so just make sure you always do your homework.

A mathematical analysis for each coin is provided, such a mathematical technique that you should use before buying selling any coin is the Elliot wave analysis , this gives you an idea of the possible future price values of the coin based on the candlestick charts of the coins, its a very awesome and technical technique and easy to use.

I believe that both options are profitable but with the second option of buying lower and selling higher, it takes a lot of time and dedications to always watch the current value so that you will be always up to date to and cash out when the time is eventually right.

 ;) ;) Bitcoin price goes up and down. If the supply is high, the price is low. Those traders who buy those products at that time. When its price increases, it sells it. This is the main mantra of business.  ;) ;)

Definitely, yes. Holding btc is the best way to do during bear market and at the same time the best time to buy btc also at a lower price. Patience is needed while waiting for the right bullish market in order to gain good profit even if it cost to wait more months.

Holding BTC for long term is more profitable, but if are more in buying lower price and sell at high I think is more comfortable, for me you can do both.

It's really profitable to hold a bitcoin for a long time. Because of its price increases, you can also buy at a cheap price and sell it at high prices. And you just know them and decide on which one you want.

it could give profit either way. if you have the patience and can hold for a long time that would be great. also buying at low price and selling at high price can give you a return of investment much faster. and maybe you can do both. win for a short term and a long term investment

Yes, this kind of strategy is profitable. Buying more bitcoin in lower price and hold it in a long time then sell it when the price is going up again. That is a basic strategy in investing and trading. Also we need to put patience to earn money and to prevent losing of capital.

Day traders will say that buying low and selling high is much profitable. But holders will say that it's more profitable to hold bitcoin for longer terms.
I'm basically a holder and will say that for me it's more effective.

Buying at a lower price and selling high is quite the common way of profiting. People doesn't get an opportunity to buy at a lower price and sell high. People who doesn't wish to take risk will keep hold of it, who gets a profit long term. With regular buying and selling one can easily make a regular earning. It's good to choose according to one's own necessity.

in a trading system it is a method, where buy in cheap and sells at the highest price, surely it becomes one of the benchmarks, if the benchmark is combined with good analytical methods, such as support resistance and supply and demand, I think it becomes more powerful

Yes it more practical to hold bitcoin for a long run,  or buy when bitcoin price is cheap to make a good profits in the future. Even though bitcoin price is in the dip now,  sooner or later it will pump again. Never had a doubt about it. Because i know how bitcoin really works.

I think that are more profitable is to hold bitcoin, because if you hold bitcoin you can earn more money. Also you don't expend more money in just buying low price of bitcoin. You just need to hold and wait the price increase to sell your bitcoins. This strategy is profitable, Also you can be able to relax and you don't have any problem where you can buy bitcoins.

Cryptocurrency is very difficult to guess, so all could happen. You can get a big profit when you buy Bitcoin and hold for a long time, you can also buy another coin at a cheaper price, then sell it later when the price is really high.

This obviously will be profitable in the long term but you never know how much time it will take. It may be 1 month, 1 week, 1 year or beyond that. Proper analysis is always required inorder to make guaranteed profits. Blockchain and Bitcoin ideologists do that analysis carefully.

It depends on the individual, both have their advantages and shortfalls, Holders find things more difficult in bearish market and thrive well in a bulls market ,better than traders

Bitcoin is a long term co-investment and the profit it generates is huge, but it means there will be many risks.

I think swing trading will be very much ok, and that's if one have a very good knowledge about trading because though it is good again it can send one back to the village.

for me buying low and selling high is more profitable, for you can catch all the ups in bitcoin's price. and by trading it, you can increase your initial investment and you can also escape when the price dives.

If its a long term, its best to buy at low, and hold it until the increase, and when the increase reach the profit you desired, then sell it, so that you will be satisfied. Long term investments takes a lot of time, maybe after months or even a year for it to increase high, if you are doing a long term investments, patience is highly needed.

The BTC is growing and falling very fast. Your nerves can not stand and you lose all the money.

A trader is a difficult job. I recommend investing in the long term

Hello, it depends on your tactics. If you want to have a profit now, you can trade, but you won't earn so much money. I prefer to hold all my cryptocurrencies and I will sell it in the bull market.

difficult if you do not have a basic understanding of trade and investment. this will require considerable experience and knowledge of technical analysis even if it does not guarantee profit. but you must seek knowledge first before it really does speculate.

it will be more profitable if you do those three. Holding is profitable for long term, buying to have more so that when prices go up later you will have bigger profit, and selling to gain after just a short time

There is no right answer for this question because it is comparing whole different situations. You might see investors getting success in both the methods and there will be some investors who will be failing in both of these methods. In the first case, it is all about long-term investing whereas the second case is all about taking the advantages of short-term situation. It depends on the investor to make a profit from the situations.

It is profitable to hold your bitcoin for the mean time.well it actually depends on you. If you have enough knowledge about bitcoin its easy for you to answer that. Holding si profitable for long term investment when the price rises you gain a higher or bigger profit .

Buying a bitcoin in low price will be profitable when the value of bitcoin goes up.
So for me it's better to buy it in a low price then hold it until it reach to your expectation of the price up.

Buying at lower price and selling at the higher price is more profitable if that happens in a very short term you no need to hold that much time but let's imagine if that can give too much profits in short term then how much you can earn in long term and also remember that don't be too greedy. :D

The problem is your predictions are not supposed to always come true. But if a person is an expert, can earn big profits and become rich.

Everytime is right time to buy bitcoin, its just depends on you, on how you will handle it to success. It was just best if you buy bitcoin when the price is low, and then hold it until the increase happen, so that we can earn bigger profit. Bitcoin is volatile, it price is rapidly changing and its unpredictable to know if its going to increase or decrease, so i believe that the higher the price decrease, the higher the price when its increase, and maybe it was even bigger than that. Investing on bitcoin needs a lot of patience, beacause bitcoin takes time to increase.

Well, it depends on what the situation of btc whether it's bullish or bearish, if in bullish, you can hold like after 1 week or 1 month so you can expect more returs of your investment.

The second one give you quick profit little by little and if keep successful with that strategy I may say it is much profitable than holding for long term since you keep reinvesting you money as it grows but this 1 is quite risky compared to just keep holding where you can just buy and keep it in your wallet no need to check daily price unlike  short trading you need to monitor daily price so you may know when to buy or sell your coins

Its more profitable to hold than to sell when the price is not good, but its more risky. It depends on you on how you handle a situation like that. But it would be best if you buy coin for the lower price then hold it for the mean time and sell it when the price rises so that you earn a bigger profit. Doing those three mames your investing successful.

Well of course if everyone was clairvoyant and could time the market and know when exactly it buy low and sell high is, then everyone would do that and make money.

The reality is hardly anyone has a legit grasp of the market, and therefore buying and holding for longer term returns make sense.

Each investor has his own strategy, which he likes more or brings more profit. I like buying bitcoin when it drops and sell when its price rises. Choose your strategy and act. No one knows how to do it right.

If you can predict both entry and exit price point during huge price swing than you can multiply your bitcoin but if you fail to do so than you will actually lose more compared to what you can easily get by just holding.

I think doing all those will be the best way to go. Holding will be the most profitable as a long term strategy. buy at lower and sell at higher price when the chance arises.

I think that depends on your analysis, hold and sales strategy can not be separated, both are important aspects to determine your profit.

sometimes the market condition makes us have to make a decision to hold, and sometimes the market conditions also provide an opportunity to sell, so we got the profit.

but, sometimes hold always give bigger profit, we just have to be patient for a long time.

Holding bitcoin is a really great source of profit since it is for long term but is also more risky than buying and selling because the bitcoins value changes in a short period of time so holding it for a long time would not really be surely productive. There are lots of things that you could do to bitcoin to have some profit like investment. Investment is pretty much like holding but for a greater period of time. Its really up to you on how you will make your bitcoin grow or how you will earn from it.

It depends. Holding could be a great solution in long term and if you trust your trading skills, then the second option will just be perfect.

Buying and selling is profitable while holding is also profitable but holding is more profitable than buying and selling reason being that if say u buy bitcoin when d price is at $6300 and now d price is $8330 definitely a huge profit as override. Lastly I will say buying and selling is for petty profit.

I think that, in the long run, who has bought, held and has been firm has earned us more. Of course, having bought at the end of December 2017 so far is a disaster.

I'm not an expert, but I want to express my thoughts.
Of course it's better to trade, because you'll miss the gain by simply holding Bitcoin.
At the end of the year and holding can generate revenue.

Bitcoin is not advisable to sell it at lower price but hold it till the market to recover and sell it at higher price mean time if the market is going down if possible buy it at lower level and sell it at higher level to book profit.The following points to be noted while entering and exiting the market.One should not enter to the market while the price is so high and it should not redeem from the market when the price is lower.The wise investor should avoid the panic selling.

The essence of holding is to sell at a higher price in future. You can hold for as long as possible. Some traders don't do this. They prefer to buy and sell at short intervals. I personally prefer to hold for a long time because this is not risky and even a newbie can do it.

Bitcoin is beneficial to hold in a period when it is constantly growing in price. If it fell in price and is practically has no movement, or rather, several thousand dollars, it rises or falls, this situation can be used to generate additional income. Of course, it would be good to sell part of its bitcoins in the period when the bitcoin price is rising, and if the price is lowered, buy. Then a good profit will be provided. Of course, for this it is necessary to have certain skills.

What question it is.
Of course you get profit if you buy low and sell high.
But how you can make sure you will do that ?
You should just hold if you are not expert on trading

It's called INVESTMENT

In investment, you should make a target. how long you hold bitcoin (for example: 5 years), and what's the highest bitcoin price limit you want (for example: $ 40k). These targets are designed to provide guidance for your investment.

And this is called a profitable TRADING

If you want to trade, then you should have planning. With fluctuating prices in the market, you should be able to make the right decisions. For example, when is the right time to buy and sell, when to do cut loss, etc. Your plan will give you direction to make a profit.

Both strategies are profitable , it all depends on you the investor and what  actually suites you at that particular moment.  If you can actually incorporate in both although it might not be easy then trust me  you  can gain much. Patience is needed for the holding and timeliness for the other. If you these two qualities then you don't have anything to worry about.

It's better to start by answering the question why do you need crypto currency? If you want to profit, you can better choose alts, they do not have a large capitalization, so their cost can increase dramatically several times, at bitcoin it's unlikely to be done so quickly

Yes, that is our basic strategy. Buy at cheaper price, hold as much as you can, or set how much increase you want to achieve before selling it. Don't get panic easily. Just stay calm and relax when market prices are dropping because it's a normal in trading business. You must understand that if there is a decrease value, there should have been an increase that follow. Observe market trend and learn from it to avoid big losses.

Both ways are more lucrative if you hold BTC when prices are low and sell when prices are high definitely you earn good return.If market is red and price of BTC is low and you buy it and wait for time when prices get high you sell it its also very beneficial

That is right, it depends on the situation if you are are a long term holder you can still earn a lot in the future, if you are short term I would say that it is better than holding for a long time, or better to allocate some for short and some for long term.

I think it's the same selling at higher price and holding, i mean of course you hold too when you bought at lower price until it goes to higher price. isn't it the same on holding? you hold until the price is high enough to sell

For me both doings is good, it depends on how you use your bitcoin both choices is profitable because as you hold it tgere is possibilty that it will double your investment while buying it during low price and sell it higher can gain you also profit. So it is a matter of each of us decision.

This depends on what you want to do or who you are. Profit is relative, if you are a trader and you have a sound knowledge of trading, then buying and selling becomes more profitable. If you are in as an investor, or you don't have an idea of how the trading is done, then holding becomes more profitable for you.

Yes of course. Both are more profitable, when you buy at low price, it is a good choice to HODL it first and wait until the price reach its peak. That's the basic strategy which effectively applicable in having investments on bitcoin to get huge profits in the future.

I don't quite understand isn't buying at lower price then selling it at higher holding too? because you hold it until the price goes up hmm

I recommend to HOLD and buy and sell both! Like if you have 2 BTC, then keep holding 1 BTC for a long time. And by other btc, You can sell that at a higher price and buy again when the price goes to down. This is the best strategy for you, this is my recommendation. Good Luck.

If you have more Bitcoin you just divide into two so that one half of them you keep on holding to save for the future. And the other one you can make it selling but not too much higher price so that the people can afford to buy.

My opinion is quite the same. It is good to HODL the Bitcoin you have bought whether cheap or expensive for the reason that it will eventually have a much expensive price after some time, and when time comes then sell it. It is nonsense for me if a person will just keep on holding and not selling his/her Bitcoin.

For me holding is more profitable than selling because in holding we can have earn more profit. Like what happened last year the double the profit. We hope that with in this year the double the profit also so that we can earn more of those coin that we hold.

In my opinion both ways can make a big profit if we are experts in that field. When we plan to hold the coin, our patience is the key. the more patiently we wait for the high price and do not rush to sell the coin, makq the bigger chance we get to get bigger profit. And if we are a reliable Crypto trader, Bitcoin Trading can also make us a millionaire.

If you are good at predicting and expert in trading it is better if you buy at a cheap price and sell at high prices. Surely it is not profitable and wasted every chance you earn on hold just bitcoin. This is what other traders and the large profit they receive it. So I've also learned this approach and hopefully I will succeed.

Ofcourse, it would be more profitable to be an active investor or investing whenever the market value is falling and selling during the increase. In such way, profit will be practically bigger because the price of it is changing from time to time which also means that profit will always be earned in this way unlike in long term holding whereas you will just set a date on when will you sell, which means profit will just depend on the season when you decided to sell.

The author said it all. It depends on you actually. As long as you do what you think is right and making wise decisions for your  bitcoin as well, this quote have different persoective and process but leads to one, though not the same result, profit.

It shows two different methods of trading strategy & i believe it cannot be combined together & answered as two questions. Holding always wins in long term basis & who has the strength to hold for long term can profit easily. This is holding strategy.

When it comes to buying at lower price & selling in higher is one another trading strategy which is used for short term. In this way BTC can be accumulated to your portfolio & that's what should be done by a trader. If you are a skillful & a fast learner, this target can be achieved. By any means it is compulsory to learn trading before enter in to trade. Apply money management strategy, 10% from your capital. But enter in the market & get experience if you are not started yet.

It depends on you, well for me I prefer to hold my bitcoin. We have different strategies on how are we going to manage our bitcoin.We have different mindsets so if you have right knowledge about bitcoin you can easily understand the things you need to do , It will be easier for you to decide.

During the previous years, its nice to hold bitcoin for a long time. Right now I think it will be more profitable if buy bitcoin in a lower price and sell it high.

Well it depends on your capacity and strategy,because if your capital is smaller and not enough to last for long,then better buy at lower price and sell when pumped.

But if your capital is just a spare money and can stand for longer waiting then buy bitcoin today and HOLD it for years,becuase for sure there will be a profit that time

I think that holding bitcoin is much more profitable, but strategically long. You need to buy more at a low price to make a big profit.  8)

The best thing is buying cheaper and selling at profit, then wait for price to fall again and buy back.
That way, if you started with 1 btc, you might end up having more .

Thank you everyone for your valuable inputs . I have been HODLing BTC and will continue to do so .

Holding bitcoin at a longer time is more profitable because the longer you keep bitcoin, the higher its market price gets. As to buying low and selling high, that's how short term investment gives you profit and it can also double your return of investment if bitcoin rises drastically like what happened last year.

For the long term holding yes it is more profitable and when the value was at the low price it is better to buy than panic selling because some of nee in cryptocurrency or even thos old here but didn't really know how to invest or trade are one of those panic seller when they see the value was falling but this is the best time to buy and invest and hold it for the futurr rising and to make it profitable.

Yeah of course the profits will be much bigger when you do daytrading, because you can generate daily profits if you are already skilled in trading, but the risk of loss would be much greater in daytrading, because every day you have to do research, analysis, and prediction, and the price may be beyond your expectations

Holding Bitcoin for long term and buying it at low and selling at high is the same principle at work. We hold Bitcoin because we buy it at a certain price considered as low and sell when the market price rises.

holding bitcoin is very profitable, and we should make a purchase at a low price and we hold it until it sells back at a higher price.

It will be depending on your capacity about the funds that you will be investing

Just like how long you can afford to hold if ever holding is the strategy to be used,since this will be growth and dumping situations are you ready to have patience and trust to the coin on your folio?

And about buying in lower price and selling in higher,do you know the risk that might cross your way?remember that bitcoin has a huge capital and may drop sometime for long period of time

Both are good ways of earning profits but it really depends on you. Like my case, I prefer holding than buying and selling. I don't have the time to always check on prices because of my duties and other things so holding would be much better to me. Remember holding takes a lot of patience and if you don't have it then it is not ideal for you.

When you bought it in a low price it is very good, but still you fold it to sell in a big price. So I think that holding selling and buying is the same things. Because if you want to own you use all this methods.

In my opinion, you need to understand what you want from the crypto currency. You want to get a lot of profits quickly, or keep coins for a long time. If the first, then choose altcoins, if the second, buy bitcoin at a low price and keep.

Yes, i totally agree with you. for me, buying at a lower price and selling at higher is not a easy problem because noone can predict exactly what will happen in crypto

Buying low and selling high is easy to think. it is the thought of a trader. Can not assess profit in a consistent way. Because, the trend of the market is impossible to judge accurately. To me, it is better to hold my bitcoin to wait for the market to overcome obstacles and challenges.

improvisation is the best strategy for investing in bitcoin in my opinion, meaning there are times when we hold bitcoin, and there is a time to sell / buy on a regular basis, so that there are some bitcoins that we deliberately hold for a certain period waiting for a high price increase. some of which we do sell / buy regularly. So that we are not only focused on waiting for high price increases which eventually lead to boredom in waiting for these prices.

I still keep my opinion that buying and selling at suitable time can bring more profitable than only holding. Because the cryto market always move, if you can follow and be patient enough. I believe that you can earn more than you can think

well,  holding bitcoin is good and buyinf and selling also mean you can add amount of bitcoin if you sell it at a bigger price but,  that is a bit hard is bitcoin is consistently low

Absolutely right.it is more profitable to hold bitcoin for a very long time especially buying it at a lower price.This will help generate more profits later when the prices increases.

I think it is more profitable to buy at a lower price and sell at a higher price, because just keep - it takes a long time

The price value of bitcoin goes up and down.  If the value goes down the supply is high and this is the opportunity of trader to buy bitcoin on that time and sell it in the right time. This is how market works in the world of crypto currency.

Well as of to the status of bitcoins now. I think you must hold your BTC untill last quarter of this year. We all know that BTC is gradually dropping and if you buy now. It is very risky. Just hold

The status of bitcoin now I think it is better to hold,holding makes more profit than buying lower and selling higher.The market is constantly decreasing.

Yes i think it's more profitable to hold on to our coins right now than buying them at a low price and sell them when the prices increase.The market suddenly fluctuates so there is only little assurance that the price will continue to increase,because with the current situation the market price is already making a downward trend again.

It must be more profitable if you buy at lower price and sell at higher because if you are thinking to hold then you will be in great trouble if the price goes down. Hope you will understand

Absolutely Holding gives very good profits. For example, the current market price of Bitcoin is $ 7000 You just bought Bitcoin this time. When Bitcoin's price has reached $ 15,000. Then you sold your bitcoin. You got very good profit. So holding Bitcoin is very profitable.  8)

Both are very good if you use the method. But in my opinion, HOLD is the right way to get greater profits compared to buying at cheap prices and selling at high prices.

Both would be the same. If you are holding Bitcoin, you would also buy it more likely to be on its low price range, then hold it and sell it when it's price would go up high. The same thing as on your other comparison in buying it at low and sell it at high. Yet buy and sell must be with trading it to other crypto. With that, you are in full control of your profits and loss.

Overall, both are profitable, and much profitable if done at the same time.

Holding will be much better, and you better buy bitcoin every month you pay, so that more bitcoin you have, because I'm sure in the future bitcoin will be used for online transactions in tens of countries, and if that happens the price will be higher than at present, it will be profitable for you, it's a way of investing in the long run, and if you trade daily you get a profit every day, provided that you already know about the crypto market, don't get the losses you will get, because of the risk of short-term investing greater than long-term investment, although both types of investment are indeed very risky.

The second option is more profitable. Just look at the charts. Bitcoin just goes up and down and you could easily made a fortune and go for a vacation right now or hold and wait much more and lose all the time where you could have been spending it with more quality. The time that you will waste is only the difference between the two.

the most profitable is, Earn your salary in Bitcoin, spend only what you need and keep the rest as investment fro long term, real long.

At present, I recommend keeping the bitcoin you have, although the current bitcoin price is not high, you should not buy or sell it. Maybe in the future, bitcoin prices can rise significantly, they can return to their peak value moment until then the choice between your hold and your sales can be self. By identifying and choosing, I believe only my trick is 100% accurate.

I think it would be a wise decision because the current price of bitcoin is very low so, if we buy in this price i am quite sure that it would be a profitable deal.

You mean trading? Investing on BTC is one of the safest way of investment here if you can hold it for a long time sometime you will be afraid because of its volatility.

Trading is one of the most risky way of earning here sure it is profitable than holding BTC if you are PRO enough to trade, but even pro-traders sometimes fail but they take their loss anyway because they know the risk.

I think this is the only rule of bitcoin investment that every investor needs to follow to get maximum profit from bitcoin investment, as we all know that bitcoin is a very profitable kind of investment and there are millions of people who are in bitcoin investment for having very good profit in a very short span of time so the best method is to buy bitcoins at very low prices that is when the valuation is quite low, that is now then hold them till the valuation inflates again and then sell them and the entire profit is yours.

It depends how log you hold and how well you trade. Holding is much less risky though in my honest opinion.

I would choose buy bitcoin when the price is low and sell it when the price is higher. Because holding a bitcoin and wait for atleast months or even years until the price will be so much higher is hard to do. Unlike buying when low price and sell when high, you will get profit in just a short period of time.

The long-term strategy clearly holds great advantage, because prices will definitely rise and maybe the price increase will be much higher in the next few years after we buy. But for trading or short-term strategies, it is better to buy lower prices and sales at a higher level. Indeed, this strategy seems very boring, because we must always monitor price movements and the benefits that we get are certainly not as big as the profits obtained by holding or holding for a long period of time.

Yes, they're both significant and play important roles.

However, if you have to choose what do with your btc right now, which one is it?

If I'm going to choose, I would prefer holding because I've high expectations on btc entering the bull period. Think positive.

You can split your financial portfolio and distribute your investments for a long time and for a short time. Why choose the best way to invest, if you can use two options. In addition, the risks of these two methods are almost equal.

If you have the skills, time, understanding and a lot of other necessary data, it is cheaper to trade, of course. But if there is no such good, it is more profitable to just keep. This is obvious, I propose to adequately assess their capabilities.

You could keeping holding your coin and miss the opportunity of selling and making money at same time you could also buy at a low price and sell when its high to make your profits which ever way is better it all depends on proper timing to do the right thing

Yes, when you hold or buy at low prices and sell at high prices, you will benefit. Either way brings you profit from the price difference. However, in my opinion, keeping Bitcoin for a long time will be more profitable but it is more risky.

A valuable resource, according to my views, should not be a dead weight, it should be in constant circulation in order to derive maximum benefit from the goods.

Yes,  this is the best strategies when you are targeting a big amount of profits to your investment in crypto currencies. You just hold your coins when you see the price  declining to the lowest level.  And buy more coins for the preparation of the peak season. And sell it when you see the price increasing. This is how you deal your investment in crypto currency to gain more profits.

Yes. It's very profitable to hold bitcoin or buy at a low price and selling it at a high price especially when you want to earn huge money. Bitcoin investment generates lots of income if you have the patience and hold it for a long time.

It is difficult to address this issue in a strict way, because in the long term the evidence seems to show us that in general terms it has been much more profitable to hold our coins (especially when we buy them at prices below $1,000) than to trade our bitcoins.

And my case is a good example of that, since I bought my first bitcoin below $400, and paying attention to the recommendations of supposed experts in fundamental analysis, bitcoin could never break the $1,300 barrier, so I sold most of my coins at that price thinking about buying back at the time of correction, which never occurred.

if I think holding is good, bro, if you can't or worry, if you sell it in a loss. with the aim of buying at a cheaper price. then play it for profit .

   Yes,of course....There is no other way to gain profit from bitcoin price only buying at a lower price then sell at the higher price. I think you don't want to get loss so you won't sell bitcoin at a lower price. But this kind of investment needs a lot of patience because after you bought bitcoin at a lower price you will wait until price increase before selling bitcoin to have profit.

hold is good but it is only good if we buy in dip, when OP post this on november the price is quite high and if he hold maybe he will stuck with his investment. CMIIW because i not see chart when i post this

If you have no experience in trading on the stock exchange, then your option is only long-term investment. If you are an experienced trader or you are trading Forex or binary options, you can try trading during the day in a short time. But the risk is everywhere, somewhere it is less, and somewhere it is more.

I agree. We do not know what will happen with the cryptocurrency is the future. If you sell now, you might buy again but very expensive. It is better to hold as you said. It can rise at any time and you will win. Selling in business is never good when you do not profit. The main goal of the BTC is not to make a profit. The goal is to get rid of fiat money and to be independent of financial institutions. Many people are using the crypto as a way to make money. We must think about financial freedom and virtual money.

if you have enough money you could do both so that you may experience then decide what's best for you. different  people have different preferences specially in this industry. but as of the moment just wait since the value is not yet fluctuating and holding would always seem to be better than trading when the value is going low for a long time.

Actually this is about trading and holding, of course holding will have a smaller risk, because you will avoid fluctuations that
occur in a short time, but trading will provide a much greater income with the note that you have more knowledge and skills..

I would suggest holding Bitcoin vs attempting to trade up.  The bankers and elite are in here causing havoc so the game is much more dangerous now.  I highly recommend holding tight. 

Of course, because if you found the opportunity to buy at low price and get the price high then your price will also become very high.

Holding bitcoin's too long, sometimes very tiring and boring. What's more if there's no purchase activity. For those of you who have expertise in trading, I personally strongly recommend try to trade, surely you will benefit even though bitcoin has experienced a slight increase.

Now it is better to keep bitcoin and not sell. In Russia and the world, not everywhere bitcoins are accepted as a means of payment.

Holding bitcoin for the long term is the best way to invest in bitcoin I think. Everyone who invests in bitcoin is sure to make a long-term investment. And if you're down then it's better to buy a bit of bitcoin and hold it for the long term.

It depends on what you strategy to earn.  Me im holding my coins,  and wait for the right time to trade.  For those who have a long patience,  its good to you to hold it,  like me iam willing to wait.  But if you dont have any patience,  do the other way buy and sell coins or maybe you can invest.

That is the most basic and efficient strategy the most of us execute. Because these kind of strategies can open up a greater opportunity to us, the user to gain more money.

If you want more risks and more money, you can trade on the stock exchange. And if you want to invest without hassle, then buy Bitcoin and just wait for its great growth.

That's how holding also works. What you are holding in the first place? that is because you are waiting for the right time for it to increase. And the same goes for buying low and selling at higher price. Which ever you chose between the two depends on where you are good with. Some are good with day trading, some are good by just buying at low and waiting for few days / weeks for the price increase and they'll sell.

Both of the choices you provided is very helpful and most of the successful investors made such kind of strategy. Buying at a lower price then hodl until the market grows. Thus, it will provide them much more income and much more profit.

Your decision really depends on the choice of your strategy. My strategy about bitcoin is to hold it and invest in it in the long term. I don't support bitcoin trading. For these purposes I can use some altcoins that have accumulated in my crypto portfolio. For me, bitcoin is an inviolable reserve which in the future will ensure my comfortable existence.

Most of the investors have invested when prices were at peak like $20000. Now those who had weak heart, would have already sold all their coins by now.

Now , we are left with investors ho are holding because they believe in crypto and expect it to be used all over the worldwide by majority of human population.

It would be more profitable if we hold bitcoin, and save it for a long time. Because with the change of season and time, there will also be price movements, which I believe will come in the next few years to reach the price of $ 30000.

Buying lower prices and sales at a higher level is far more profitable than we have to hold BTC, but we also avoid the risk of a large loss in such a way. If we hold bitcoin, then we must wait for a long time. if we want to make big profits.

Yes, this method is profitable. And in my knowledge most people follow this method. Take the opportunity to use this method during unstable periods. You can also take this experience.

I think it is really more profitable to buy low and sell high it is really clear that if we are go in to buy low we can buy a lot more, while of we buy on a high price we can only buy a few amount of coin or maybe token. So then I think it is more profitable to buy low and sell high.

I think both doings is profitable. It just a matter of choice for each of us how we think best to gain profit. If I will too choose, I prefer to hold my investment into long term because I believed that time comes the value of bitcoin will return to its original price and there is possibility it will double the price.

This is the best way to invest and earn from bitcoin, the world of crypto provides a unique way to trade and earn from your investment. The secret is always buy low and sell high.

In this way temporary benefits are available. If you can keep low prices, you can get more benefits in the future. Trading strategy is, buy at a lower price and hold on for a lot of profit. If you buy, and if get a profit than sell, will have a day trading.

the two options are profitable at same time risky. holding bitcoin is good but you will be faced with panic whenever you see price go down. buying and selling on the other hand is also good but then you have to be a good trader to know when to buy and when to sell so you don't run at loss.

In my opinion, the answer is simple. If you think you can capture the lows and highs then, hell yeah, its best and more profitable to buy low sell high rather than wait, a dynamic market is always better than a static one, that's for sure.

We are free whatever we want to our cryptos and trading them at a reasonable price to gain profit is what we really wanted. Selling your crypto may affect the current price but at least, you are not selling it during crashes.

Both options listed are profitable it all depends on the individuals understanding of the crypto world. When you hold you are faced with panic when the market goes down and not up. When you trade your btc for higher prices than you bought you in turn gain little profits on sales

I think both are profitable and for sure with the right strategy you will be able to earn more profit just make sure you can control your emotion and the acceptance of risk is there.

This is how it should be. Sure, holding bitcoin for a long period of time and buying at low price and selling them at higher price will give you more profit. Both of these are good choice. Why choose when you can do both

Both have different profit levels, in changing market conditions. If the price of Bitcoin moves up and down rapidly in the same price range, then buying Bitcoin at a low drop and selling it when the price reaches the highest rising point, then we buy it again when the price drops, and sell it again when the price rises, and it repeats - of course it will get a huge profit. but if the price of bitcoin moves sloping and the price goes up, of course holding Bitcoin will be more profitable when we can sell it at a very high price.

As they say, "in war all means are good", that is, I want to say that you can do HODL, and you can also play on the stock exchange, but you need to know and be able to do technical analysis.

They are both good to apply in investing but it actually depends on the person. I prefer buying at a lower price then hold it for the mean especially now that the price isnt good then wait until the price rises and sell it. Holding is good for long term investment.

it seems to me that you need to fix your income in the future in order not to experience such large drawdowns

I can say for sure that holding bitcoin for a long period of time is advantageously beneficial

Currently you can see the market of bitcoin, it is really stable if you compare with other altcoins.
Bitcoin price stay above $6k when the other altcoins falling slowly. So, i think it is more profitable to hold BTC.
When altcoins price back to increase again, buy it with your BTC.

For me the best strategy is to buy bitcoin in a lowest price and sell it in the higher price that is the most profitable and good to earn money, but hold bitcoin in a long term is also good. You can do it together buying bitcoin and hold for a long term and sell the day that profit is good enough to sell , But i suggest you to join some telegram, we have a group that have professional in trading where give a signal to buy bitcoin and telling time when to sell bitcoin .

Both options can be profitable as long as you know what you are doing. For me, holding is the best option, but buying and selling can be a good choice too.

I think that hodl is the most profitable strategy. I think so you can save your nerves and this strategy in any case will bring profit. Sooner or later

Buy and hold its for long term,Investing on a long term is safer and you dont have to make any effort like checking at the price every day and you will be make great profit from its in future

If there is no goal of passive income, you can trade on the basis of Analytics, buying cheaper and selling more expensive.

if I think if you have more capital. some are used for long-term investments. and some are used for short-term investments. that is by buying at a low price. if we get a profit we sell even though only a little profit

Buy at low prices, and sell at high prices. But trading is not that easy. Because we know that crypto coins have a volatile price.

trading is much more profitable but not the way how you think as simple you need more knoledge in trading cause i single mistake can cause you much. Holding if you think you are not good in trading and the price will moon as you expected.

for me to get hold of the purchase and purchase at low price because when you buy the market at low tokens or coins price you must hold it first so you do not lose your sales when the price is december by december You will increase the prices of all the markets if you hold good and not charge low prices

If trading is easy, everyone would be doing it. Most of those who start trading lost most of their capital in a short period of time because of being greedy or didn't study the market first at least in theories so that they would understand what those candles mean. As for holding or trading, I would say it is profitable for bitcoin to hold if it is a bull market but if you want to profit whatever market it is, it would be better to do trading because even if the price goes down if you know how to short then you can still make money.

If your patience is ready to wait for a long time then I can say say you should HODL but if not and you really want to have your profit quickly don't even try to. And also buy and sell, we cannot predict when will be the price go up do time is a factor. Both of this way are good but for me it is more good to HOLD.

Hold, because I am bad at trading and holding is easy — Bitcoin is scarce and it is going to give it more value.

Its a lot easier and better to hodl than to buy at a lower price and sell at a higher price(trading). There are instances when you try to buy at a lower price while the price keeps on dropping this might invariably might leads to massive loss however as a trader this method of trading requires some expertise else the whole account will be blown out
However hodling does not requires as form of expertise but its not as profitable as trading.

Yeah, I agree about hodling rather than trading because it is much easier to hodl some Bitcoin but it really depends on the person because there are people that are really good at trading and predicting prices and they get a lot of profit from trading and trading also need a lot of time and concentration because you need to check the market every now and then. I wanna clear out that I'm not against trading and both this two kinds of method to earn profits are good and really profitable if you know what you are doing. 8)

yes of course it can be very profitable and indeed it's the right way to trade, don't let you sell the bitcoin you have at the price below when you buy bitcoin because it will make you lose, as much as possible wait until the price becomes expensive and you can sell it so you can benefit.

In previous years, it was very advantageous to simply hold bitcoin and this brought very large profits to its holders up to a thousand percent or more. This year, the bitcoin holders did not receive any profit from simply keeping bitcoin and the only possibility of obtaining it is the periodic sale of a part of the bitcoins, when it rises in price by several thousand dollars, and its purchase at the appropriate price descents.

I also had same point of view few days ago but the current situation is very much unpredictable because there is no sign of rising the market.

Holding and selling at a high rate are both profitable. A good strategy and target goal is needed if you prefer the trading and selling at a high market value. In holding you will just sit back and relax and wait for the market to boost up.

Base on my knowledge and personal experience in cryptocurrency, Mixing both is a very good method to adopt as for example; storiqa went up so high within 2days due to NASDAQ article and I sold off all my storiqa and waited for 7days before buying back the same storiqa at a very discounted price. I now hold *8 of my supposed bags of storiqas. Sell off when the FOMO is very high and wait 5-7days to buy back when the tempo is completely down.

I am preferrable of buying coins at a lower price and selling at higher price , I think this could be profittable and can earn more gains from your investment.

Nice question, I will go with both ,I will keep half for HOlding and the rest for trading ,buy low sell high ;)

Both good idea
Holding BTC can be your savings in case of emergency but it has a bad side too and because you will never know when will bitcoin go or up how, imagine when you're still holding BTC in a higher price like when in goes to 5,700 and goes down again; but when you're buying a lower price and selling at  higher is better idea because you will gain more money on that strategy but the decision is yours, just decide when or what ever you want to do, don't just trust to the ideas in internet because 90% ideas come from internet is just a bullshit when you're a investors you should think wise trust yourself more than the internet or others you didn't know.

When you hold it has its own advantage which is different from buying and selling
Most time people hold their coin when decision is yet be made on buying or selling, but in the period the value is patiently monitored. Buying is usually favourable when the price is low.

I prefer to hold bitcoin as long as possible, as it is the most secure and profitable. I do not strive for fast money and evaluate the prospects of cryptocurrency in the future.

The price of bitcoin is very unpredictable and I prefer not to risk it but just keep my coins as long as possible until the price is high and valid. I'm taking my time.

Trading is always accompanied by certain risks, so if you do not have skills in trading, I would advise you to refrain from doing so. It is much more reliable to use long-term investment.

Both have their advantages yet different. Initially, you'd be opted to buy bitcoins in their lowest value, and from there you can hold on to them until the value gets higher.

I will give you advice. In order to trade on the stock exchange it is necessary for you to be happy and intelligent. Mainly keep cryptocyrrenci in good tokens.

Your decision really depends on the choice of your strategy. My strategy about bitcoin is to hold it and invest in it in the long term. I don't support bitcoin trading. For these purposes I can use some altcoins that have accumulated in my crypto portfolio.but if the price of bitcoin moves sloping and the price goes up, of course holding Bitcoin will be more profitable when we can sell it at a very high price.

It all depends on the risk that you can able to manage. Lower price altcoins is high risk but it has a potential to get a bigger profit compared to Bitcoin. But if you want to minimize the risk I suggest to stay in Bitcoin because we all know that Bitcoin will surely rise and and make a sure profit.

Bitcoin is big source of income. Hold and buying low rate and sale high rate both are good. What are you choice its depends on you. Holding mean long term patience you need to keep long time to earn good profit. Other hand buy low and sale high its low profit but instant.

Hey, It is more profitable to buy BTC in low price and sell it in high price. If you don't hope that, BTC price won't increase then you can hold it for future and I hope you can earn good profit.

At this point in time, it is profitable to keep Bitcoin, and possibly even buy it. Soon he will undoubtedly return the lost positions, and exceed them. Bitcoin is the future.

I'm following this kind of subject. My mind has many doubt about to HOLD or buy any a lower price amount. In my side I think it's good to be Hold than to buy but I'm.not realy sure.

Keeping hold of the digital assets is always profiting, but at the same time one needs to be prepared enough to face the market fluctuations which happens without any prior indication. One who overcome such instances will survive in the cryptocurrency network. Importantly when there is opportunity it is a must to buy and sell at the right time to profit big apart from holding.

Its good to keep or hold it for your future buying bitcoin in a lower price. if you invest on a bank you will have a little interest in many years. If you invest in bitcoin theres a possible that your money will be triple if you hold it and you trade it. Its your choice but for me bitcoin is the best thing to invest.

Yes, this is their strategies why traders and investors are gaining a lot of profit in crypto world. They buy more when price drops and sell all when price rises more than their buying price before. But investors must learn when to sell and when to buy to avoid big losses.

it depends on the capital you have if your capital is limited so you still hold the btc the best thing you do, waiting for the market to rise again, but if you have the capital it would not hurt to buy btc and collect it, waiting for the price to be high as you you just want to sell it so that you will get a profit, indeed btc is more appropriate for long-term investments, we have to wait to wait because from the market now I am not sure you get big profits in this short time.

if you like to watch the market every time I think you can try the second option to buy at low and sell it at high, it will give you more profit than you holding bitcoin, but if you don't like to see the market every time i think you can hold your bitcoin, just hold it and wait until the price is rise up

I think you can do it for both, I mean is going but bitcoin now (you can assume the lowest price now), then you can start saving your money / bitcoin as the future or deal with the long term (profitable). It depends entirely on you.
be smart to take the opportunity to be better.

There is no ideal time to store bitcoins. We cannot predict it unstable price because as of now bitcoin price continuously dump and ofcourse it would be better if you will invest some money when the price of bitcoin is too low for you to get huge return.

We know that trading will be far more profitable if you have the ability in it because you can make a big profit every day and you can trade in altcoin or bitcoin. the risk varies depending on your skills and the coins you choose. but of course you can just use both trading and holding

it was a great profitable strategy that you have to buy bitcoins at a lower price.Wait patiently until each bitcoins increase its value compared to the one youve got at a lower value.Thus,doing this you may sell your bitcoins to a much higher value and thats makes it more profitable.

Yes its more profitable the strategy is buy bitcoin in a Low price buy more as much as you can. When the price of bitcoin is high? Sell it into competitive price the best time is when the bitcoin is continuing high . Many buyers are looking for it to sell.
 

The trade you are talking about is not so easy. And it's profitable if you make it with a larger amount of assets and it will take a lot of time from your day. If you can afford it, I think this is the better option. If you do not have a lot of time and finances, it is better to invest and hold.

If you ''hold''  btc ypu only have potential profit, not real, substantial profit.
Only if you sell for higher price than you bought btc, you have profit.
The best way, in my opinion, is to wait until price reach higher level so that you can sell with good profit.
Never sell if you can't make profit unless you have some urgency.

While there is an opportunity, you need to try to periodically trade bitcoin, buying it cheaper and selling more. And periodically the profit is necessary to deduce in fiat and in other perspective kinds кpиптoвaлют. No matter how lucrative and reliable bitcoin does not seem, it is better not to invest in it. Moreover, bitcoin is not yet in its best form and its scalability of seven transactions per second does not give optimism.

Holding bitcoin is always profitable and of course if we get bitcoin and by it and hold then it may take little more time but we must get big profit.

if according to more profitable if we have bitcoin then we spend with other Coin. Thus we can get a profit every day, bro. the advantage of bitcoin and coin that we buy with bitcoin

Always, if you want to earn you should buy on rollback, and sell on the rise. Only so you can not stay in the red.

     No doubt long term holding is the best strategy to earn more profit by trading btc.Buy low, sell high is common strategy but should invent more other strategy if you want to gain more profit.

It depends on you. This is a choice, which strategy is best for you. So you can use that strategy to produce. Holding bitcoin for the long term in my opinion is a good and safe strategy to make a profit. So try to do that.

Holding bitcoin and buying at lower price then sell at higher price both are profitable, depends on your own ideas. If you are the type that are very good in transaction, you know when to buy and when not to buy, you can go for day to day trading but ifnyou are not good at this i suggest you hold

Bitcoin is beneficial in both of these strategies, but you should choose the most suitable one. I for example am engaged in investments and do not like trading.

If you are experienced enough and good in buying lower and selling higher it is for sure more profitable way which will make you profit no matter whether it is a bull or bear market.

Although with the help of trading you will be able to make a profit faster, but try to think about the long term. You can make more money there.

I think storage is more profitable. You are not associated with the risk that are present when trading, and therefore the chances of losing your money is quite low.

i think one of the best thing to do is to diversify your investment in crypto. always hold some amount of BTC at every month either you tether when  needed but make sure its a reserve. and also buying low and selling high is a very good one. it helps to bring daily income if the trader is good. so both needs to be done at the right proportion depending on your capital and ability.

Either way is profitable because bitcoin can give you a profit in the short or long run. As its price skyrocketed in just a short time, you can sell your bitcoin that point or you can also hold it for a while because bitcoin is also a good currency for long term hold.

Hold and buying low rate and sale high rate both are good. Your decision really depends on the choice of your strategy. Holding mean long term patience you need to keep long time to earn good profit. But if you want to minimize the risk I suggest to stay in Bitcoin because we all know that Bitcoin will surely rise and and make a sure profit.

Both holding and trading with Bitcoins are lucrative. However, Bitcoin becomes more profitable when held for long term because it takes on its giant leap gradually. Trading with Bitcoin requires a lot of expertise in order to predict well when to buy and when to sell.

Indeed, if we want to trade, bitcoin can be profitable if we can hold it for long term. If we want to make short profits, i think altcoin is good to trade but making good trade need technical analysis on market.

Holding bitcoin and buying at lower price then sell at higher price both are profitable, depends on your own ideas. If you are the type that are very good in transaction, you know when to buy and when not to buy, you can go for day to day trading but ifnyou are not good at this i suggest you hold.

Yes holding bitcoin and buyiny in a low price and selling it in a higher price is profitable. Actually that is the strategy that we need to earn more here in bitcoin and that is the way that been told by our expert.

If you want small profit then you will buy low price then sell high price but if you want a bigger profit, you must hold it until the btc bullish.

It depends on the kind of investor one is. For traders, their aim is always directed towards identifying trading opportunities to make safe profits. These type of investors what be particularly interested in holding. Holding here signifies a relatively long period of investment, I.e time of investment proportionate to time of profit taking. Depending on a number of factors, one may be advantageous or disadvantageous to the order. So, it solely depends on your style of preference or approach.

 way to escape these emotions and profit is to look at the market professionally. It will take time to do that. Therefore, holding is going to be much more profitable for most people.

Either way you are assured to earn well in terms of who sells more it's time that can tell. Only time can determine it because there's a time to do different ways. One way or another yoy can earn so try them both and see it for yourself. Both ways are profitable and worth a shot so do them both then you will be having big opportunity.

It depends upon the time to determine which way is more profitable. What I'm saying is that there are certain times when the former is better over the latter or vice versa. Only one thing is for sure and that is you can earn using both ways. Either the two of them can give you profit you my advice for you is to try them both.

In my opinion it would be more profitable on trading because you can make a big profit every day, the difference is at risk, trading is more risky because you can lose on that day, you can use both of them its also better, holding for your backup and trade for your daily income

bitcoin is profitable but if possible don't all be mobilized to be in bitcoin because there are still many altcoins that now also grow well and are stable even growing continuously.

So lets be shrewd to accept an open doors to improve. Be that as it may, you can improve the situation both, I mean's go yet a bitcoins now (You can accepting as now's the least value), at that point you can begin to keeping your cash/bitcoins as future or manage long terms(profitable). That is are absolutely relies upon your-self.

Holding BTC will be much better because I'm sure in the future bitcoin will be used for online transactions in tens of countries, and if that happens the price will be higher than at present.

If you are talking about the current market situation, retention is the best course of action. While the price is at the bottom selling coins is pointless, otherwise you will be left without profit.

Ideal-hold your coins and buy more looking coins while the price is low. But this is only possible if you have the money. This is a very good time to buy.

In the mean time, i suggest you do both since the market is down and prices are low. You can try buying bitcoin, hold and eventually sell it in a higher price. Regardless of what you choose, if you know what to do with your coin, you will not lose anything.

These are two different strategies that can be combined. But I always prefer to hold coins and replenish my investment portfolio when the price falls. Now is such a good time.

Given this situation in the market, of course you need to keep your coins from selling. This is absolutely unprofitable for you, because soon to be growth. When-is unknown, but we in anticipation.

Now prices have fallen very much, and if you have free money - it is very profitable to buy coins now and sell them when the price rises. You can make good money. But you can also invest in the long term. Here it as you like.

Both of these options are beneficial. I prefer long-term investing, but I often buy coins at price drawdown and sell some of them after a time when the price rises well. This gives me the opportunity to earn more or less quickly. A long-term investment involves earnings only after a few years.

Investment in Bitcoin is always beneficial and if we get the opportunity to buy it in low price then we must grab the opportunity and hold it and get big profit.

in my opinion, it all depends on market conditions. Now this is the most suitable conditions to be holding. However, I do not recommend. All depends on your choice.

I am a supporter of splitting positions on a spontaneous algorithm, so I see it profitable to make all kinds of transactions at the same time, both long-term and short-term by crushing the position.

I agree with you! You can never go wrong investing with bitcoin since its worthy of people's trust and very reputable.  But to maximize every opportunity, i suggest you invest in different promising coins.

I think that competent investors hold, and many buy up bitcoins. We can say that if the coin has such a capitalization, then there is a future and the value of the coin will grow. Everyone should understand that long-term investment is important here.

Of course, that competent investors hold, and many buy bitcoins. We can say that if the coin has a capitalization that is 50% of the cryptocurrency market, then there is a future and prospects for the development of the coin. Everyone knows that an investment is a long-term investment.

It seems to me, it is more profitable to keep bitcoin for a long period, from several years. Because no one can predict that the growth and fall of bitcoins and sometimes you can get into a ridiculous situation with these sales.

I talked with different, mostly experienced investors and they all choose long-term storage in the replenishment of the investment portfolio at price drawdowns. So you minimize the risks that you can get when selling.

I combine one strategy with another. Part of the bitcoin I sell, if it has grown strongly in price, but the rest, most, I have stored for the long term.

if I think holding Bitcoin for a long time will be more profitable than buying and selling coins in a short time to get a small profit. but even though we invest in the long term we must keep an eye on changes in bitcoin prices at any time, who knows suddenly there is a high price spike.

It all depends on the market situation at the time of your investment. During the bull market, the price of Bitcoin can increase significantly within the shortest possible time. During these times, it becomes a good grounds for buying low and selling at a certain high price. During the bear market, you need to exercise patience and hold your coins till Bitcoin hit good price which takes gradual steps.

In my opinion, it is better to keep, as I see, then the BTS slightly reclines, and then flies much higher. It's my opinion ;)

Because of the situation right now, hold of stock and buy more is better to do this time for the preparation for future investment.

Either way is good but I prefer to buy at a lower price and sell at a higher price. You make more money using that strategy than buying and holding

Now prices have dropped a lot, and if you have free money - it is very profitable to buy coins now and sell them when prices rise. But you can also invest in long term. Both of these options are beneficial. This gives me the opportunity to earn more or less quickly. Investing in Bitcoin is always beneficial and if we have the opportunity to buy it at a low price then we have to seize the opportunity and hold it and make a big profit. In my opinion, this is a good time to buy bitcoin because the bitcoin price on the market today is quite cheap

Yes it is profitable but it is not always that easy to earn un holding. We do hold because we are waiting fpr the price to rise but like in the case this year, bitcoin takes a long to rise and goes very deep. Analyzing the chart, it looks so long time to recover. But if you're willing to wait coz it will surely a big profit, tine does not matter anymore

it was a no secret to buy low and sell it high to gain profit. what is matter is you must pick it in the right time. when is the good time to buy and when is the bad time to avoid buying bitcoin. do you want to buy bitcoin in it all overtime high.. what is matter for me is the time to buy it.

well i think this solely depends on the business objective of the holder, but for me, the main objective of entering into crypto is to make profit, so it will be more profitable for me to buy at a lower price and sell at a cheaper price. this will be more profitable. that doesn't make hodling for a long term less profitable.

In my opinion trading is risky and very time consuming. Not worth it, especially with the small BTC amounts I have. I preffer slowly accumulating my BTC every month with spare money.

Well, you are here talking about the short and long term trading. Both are profitable, and both involve some level of risk as well. However, I am preferring to hold my BTC for long term, because actually the market is red and the price isn't expected to increase highly in the few coming weeks.

In a long term holding seems more profitable, and if you need to make money every day, then the buying and selling scheme is better.

if you have enough money you could do both so that you may experience then decide what's best for you. different  people have different preferences specially in this industry. but as of the moment just wait since the value is not yet fluctuating and holding would always seem to be better than trading when the value is going low for a long time.

in my opinion, if you have bitcoin and you haven't got profit then it would be better to keep holding it even you can buy it again when the price is low then sell it when the price is high

I think holding Bitcoin is actually more profitable than buying low and selling high, because the market is actually down and the price rising is very slow. We predict that Bitcoin price will go up highly after few months or years at least.

Buying a lower price and selling at higher mean you still need to hold your BTC right ? in order to meet your sell requirement to get benefit from here. Usually, more long you hold your cryptocurrency more profit you gain from here, even though it depend on market.

Yes, it's safer to hold Bitcoin for long-term, but if you are a professional trader and you know when to buy and when to sell, it's obviously more profitable then long-term investment.

You have just described two main strategies of earning with bitcoin. And both of these options are really beneficial. I'm using both of them. This allows me to make a profit quite often.

Trading is very attractive at its core because it gives you faster earnings. But few people succeed in using this strategy, so you need to be careful with trading.

That's the right strategy to do now. And as I do, I'm buying btc and other coins for when I'm going to sell something big. but I think next year the height of coins like btc eth dent etc.

Both of these options can give you great profits. But each of them has its own specifics. Long-term investment gives you the opportunity to make a profit after a large amount of time. Trading will yield profits faster, but it is more risky.

I think both of the plans have different advantages and disadvantages. For example if you only HOLD and wait for few years you are grantee to get profit and there is no loss involved in it.

trading Bitcoin is more profitable if you have sound technical/fundamental analysis knowledge, if you really can find points of buying and selling successfully then it is better than holding Bitcoin, holding can make you good money but at the same time it can even make you lose 70%, 80% of your money which is not possible if you buy and sell regularly provided you know the points of buying and selling.

It depends on you if you're smart enough and think that in the future price in the market will rise then you can buy now at low price and wait for the time price will rise then sell it to have a big profit you must be patient to wait for that time.

This depends on the strategy you invest. Two main strategies are long-term investment and short-term investment. Depending on the development of the market, we can choose the most effective investment strategy. If you have stable capital, you should buy bitcoin and long term reserves. You can still track bitcoin prices to buy low and sell at higher levels to make a profit.

Well, if you are a successful trader and do not merge everything into a minus , of course it is better to trade ! Thereby increasing their coins , and during this time they will grow in price, rather than just store them and wait for growth !

You need to make an analysis before you choose to hold bitcoin, you require to observe the market trend with the current market compared to the previous days, years etc that gives you an idea and due to sudden changes in price you either do not need to worry or feel jumping for temporary profits.

If you choose trading, understand the crypto you choose, analyse when they started and how the price consistency even when you move from one crypto to other crypto calculate the charges and right exchange that helps you save some money.

There is profit in holding and also buying at a lower price and selling at a higher price but i prefer holding and selling to make profit.I do advise we do not just hold but as well spread by buying also there is profit in both

Both are profitable.

Depends on how much you are going to sell whether you're an holder or a trader that usually buy at lows, hold for a while and sell it when the price's up.

if you could buy it in lower price than sell it in higher than of course it would be more profitable and whenever the bull run comes just wait and sell on its peak, but doing so is not a work of every person I think, so if you would focus only on btc than it is good doing such a thing.

They are both good,but buy when low and selling when its high its kind of profitable the more perhaps it should be mixed with carefulness..

Hold BTC is freedom with a limited time process with the maximum possible profit increase, hold it for 2-3 years and you will know the results of the power of bitcoin

For me bitcoin is a long-term investment that will provide big profits, for it is certainly more profitable if you continue to hold bitcoin and wait until the price of bitcoin rises and can provide big profits, as long as it hasn't happened, I will still hold bitcoin and remain patient waiting for the arrival rising bitcoin prices.

Your way is very easy, everyone can understand completely, but the time when the lowest price to buy and when to decide to sell, then there is no book to teach you! Experience for failures or success is the way to invest!

it's the same as mate, just hold btc until the price goes up even though waiting for a long time. or buy at a low price, then go up a little in the near future and immediately sell it, just as profitable. because it has benefited from the purchase price.

In my opinion both are profitable but holding takes great patience to do because it's for long term while trading is a key to keep Bitcoin going because if no one trades it will be useless. Moreover trading carries great risk if you don't have enough knowledge to do it you may end up increasing your portfolio but you may also end up broke.
