So the article is just suggesting balancing your portofolio, which is like diversity (?) which is one the golden rule while investing. Investing $5,000 and split into 5 cryptos ($1000 each = 25%) and then change the value of these same 25% to 20-22-24% ? ..with a fixed amount of time between each rebalance. Is it this?

There must be better way! Post by: BitHodler on April 03, 2018, 08:56:39 PM The last thing we need is another joker telling to have found a better way to make money. People don't want to expose themselves to the risks of owning altcoins, and neither do I.
If you look at the market throughout the last years, then it's obvious that nothing beats hodling. What you suggest isn't anything new, and is something certain people are already doing, but without much success. People who point out that there is a better way than hodling always have something else that plays an important role, and in this case it isn't any different as the above poster pointed out. There is no easy money to be made. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: iillaa on April 03, 2018, 09:56:52 PM well i think u can hold but with more risky way that may make u poor or rich ;D
simply sell high and buy low for example u are holding an alt coin and it started to dip sell to btc and when dip over rebuy it and u will gain more coins but u may lose also since the market can play u and the coin may go up while u sold ;D its too nervous and stressful tried it and failed ;D but ik many ppl gained money and other saved their capital Title: Re: Still HODLing?

Rebalancing is a strategy where you automate the process of selling high and buying low. There is no stress involved and no manual trading. This is why Shrimpy was so successful over the last year. The volatile market compounded those gains every time it sold high and bought low. Shrimpy Team Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

There is no TA that takes place in order to perform the rebalance, so the application cannot make mistakes. Rebalancing is actually quite the opposite of risky. It reduces your risk and makes your portfolio more stable. Thank you for signing up! We will definitely let you know as we expand our offering. Hopefully you can be convinced at some point to jump on board! Shrimpy Team Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

Something like that... the OP's articles is a total mess and made with a sole purpose to advertise his 're-balancing service ' shrimpy.io/ I wouldn't fall on this. Rebalancing is simply a strategy that realigns your portfolio with your target allocations. This means if you want 25% of 4 different coins, after a rebalance you will have 25% of those 4 different coins. Between rebalances, the percentages may drift, but after each rebalance your portfolio will be aligned once again with your target. It's extremely simple and has beat HODLing by a large margin over the last year. I agree the article was not meant for educational purposes. Educational articles generally don't seem to create enough interest. You are welcome to see our other articles we've published on other topics: https://medium.com/@ShrimpyApp. However, there is nothing to fall for. It's simply a free application that anyone can use to rebalance their portfolio. It's as simple as that. Shrimpy Team I believe that this is no longer foreign to most traders. The article would be informative and educational for those who have no idea of the concept yet and may utilize it as a strategy. Some don't know the importance of diversifying their portfolio and choose to just focus and one good coin. However, this cannot be compared to HODLING. HODLING is totally different from this because by principle, you don't do anything with the coin when you HODL - you just simply store it in a secure wallet for a very long time then eventually sell once you're satisfied or have profited enough. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Ishiro5 on April 03, 2018, 11:17:20 PM HODL should be a pre-determined strategy on chosen trades. For instance, in a bear market such as we have had in the last few months, a full time day trader cannot be seen as smart if he/she invests all his portfolio in coins that keep dropping and he fails to set a stop loss or cut his losses. But if a coin is being bought for hold, the coin should even locked up or something.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Gotottack on April 03, 2018, 11:47:59 PM I have read this. People may opt to try this if they are risk-takers but if they do not want to try something new, I still think HOLDING is key. But based on my experience, however, I combine holding by earning with Bitcoins too. Hence, I accumulate Bitcoins day by day and not just solely holding it. I think people have to see for themselves what work best for them, and not rely their business judgments to those of others who are not in the same situation as theirs. We have to understand the varying circumstances that are unique to every experience, hence, we cannot really totally apply what is right and correct in theory. Situations are not always ideal as envisioned in theory, you know.

I do agree though that everyone is welcome to use their own strategy. Rebalancing is just an extremely simple solution that doesn't introduce any additional complexity to managing a diverse portfolio, so I think it makes sense for HODLers. Thanks, Shrimpy Team Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: MinerHQ on April 04, 2018, 01:29:41 AM Could you explain more about why you think rebalancing would be risky? Rebalancing definitely reduces risk. Rebalancing surly it will help if you do it correctly but I don't agree that making money is so simple just create an account and link your account to trading account. If any such full proof methods are available then I don't think they will release such programs to the public instead they will be busy in making money from their trades 24 hours. If a person can't understand how market moves or can't decide which one to buy for short term then better buy good coins and hold for a long term to make a profit. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: squatz1 on April 04, 2018, 01:48:06 AM Rebalancing is something which would require you to have extra capital to toss at it. If the market is good you're going to sell some to rebalance, but if the market crashes you're going to have to buy mass amounts to rebalance -- and I doubt a lot of people are going to have the extra capital in order to do it.
SO YEAH, there is a better way for people to have the money-- but not for people that put in more then they can afford to lose. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: St4yInTh3D4rk on April 04, 2018, 03:16:42 AM In trading the holding is not the better way because we can't make money if our funds stand still but when it comes to crypto currency trading while the prices are falling it is better to hold our crypto currency than trading and holding can give us more profits if we hold it longer.

I love how people still think that the 'good projects' are going to help them out in times of a market downturn. When the market is taking a shit, all of the proejcts are taking a hit and no one is going to care what the projects ambitions are cause they usually don't turn out coming to fruition anyway. Stick with the coins that are making money, not the biggest ambitions. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

You guys need to take a look at this! https://medium.com/@ShrimpyApp/crypto-investors-want-free-money-stop-hodling-30f547130266 yes you are right the best way now is to hold the coin you have because bitcoin price is still very below and if you sell coin that you have at this cheap price then you only get loss because actually bitcoin has potency price rise again.

There must be better way! Post by: GoldenLad on April 04, 2018, 08:01:45 AM OP, your article is sort of Confusing, if I understand that article correctly; it means that people should rebalance as in buying and reselling so that bitcoin price will increase and there will be gains? I am seriously lost. Well if it what it means; then, I don't think everyone should be rebalancing, there are some people who perfer to hold, its their choice. And again, HODLing is what made crypto what it is today.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: sensimilia on April 04, 2018, 08:12:51 AM Yes some people still holding and doing re balance of deposit if price drop more they just buy more and fix middle price of total pocket . I think this is a good strategy but its ask more money to have to acting like that.

There are already a lot of innovations concerning bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, only time will tell, when the rise of bitcoin will happen again and as things goes, it might happen in the near future, though we don't still see it on the charts.

It is much better if we are going to do our own research and to have our own experience but thinking wisely, it all ends to hodling anyways. Surely, there is investing as another option for the prices are good for investments. There is no guarantee that a profit will be back but looking at what happened before, the prices will likely fluctuate up before the year ends. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

Miners do not let bitcoin to progress , because bitcoin need to up size block in 2 times and it will hit half earning from miner that's why they do not let to bitcoin stay better because a lot of big miners will loss their money 50% of them.

Post by: nydiacaskey01 on April 05, 2018, 09:19:00 AM At first I thought what OP is trying to say is day trading is better than hodling but as I continue reading the article, I think the author of the article is simply promoting his site but involves API keys to submitted to the site. Article only mentions Bittrex and Poloniex so I don't think other exchange platform users can use the site that the author is promoting. To summarize, I will not allow someone to trade for me, I'll just stick to what I know so if I loose money, I can only blame myself for my foolishness.

I thought it was for fully informing traders to do balancing, but its just convincing them to sign up on his account. Anyways, getting some ideas from others is important for an outlook but we should have our own strategies that we might think and we do experience that works for us. Nor everyone was good at managing Day Trading, we just need where we will be good at. Try to explore as much as possible.Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

We do trades on the basis of TA+FA including news and sentimemts around the coin we are trading . But the bot/website you mentioned does not makes sense to me. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Dudeperfect on April 05, 2018, 05:21:45 PM When it comes to the price, it always follows the law of demand and when demand increases then the price also increases and when vice versa but since there will be limited number of Bitcoins planned for market circulation, there will be a limited supply but on the other hand there will be a high demand as at this point not even 10% of world's population is using Bitcoin so naturally price will increase. Expecting sustainability from it is not a wise idea in my opinion but I am expecting sustainable growth from it over the period of time. I believe that when it comes to the investment the second best thing after purchasing is holding and it is the most difficult part when things are going negative around us.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: DarkIT on April 05, 2018, 05:31:35 PM for the time being, I just hold some ETH, and maybe I will not sell it until the price goes up. honestly, for the time being, I feel that ETH has a low price. ETH will continue to be used and developed, so there is a great possibility that the price will soon rise. it's the same for bitcoin, but I see more of the potential that ETH has when compared to BTC.

In such cases, Hodling is best applied. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

Maybe that can be called as bagholding also since people don't have a choice to do it if they are losing some money for that downfall, But hodling can also implicates with rising value with the coins since there are certain several could even rised up for more and we can see it on bitcoins since even if the value soar still to many hodlers still keeps their money for long time use.

There must be better way! Post by: BennyK on April 06, 2018, 02:05:32 AM Sometimes it becomes wise and smart to hold whereas the story turn otherwise, other times. It is up to you to study the market demand of the coin and follow the progress of the project from the developer. Some projects and their tokens end up becoming "shit" coins because the developer abandoned the project. Following, studying and knowing the status of coins like this, there is no point in holding it. Trade them as quickly as possible and invest in more established coins.

I want to earn more for the meantime because my portfolio keeps on falling down. I will just hold the coins which I currently have and will add more coins for short term or day trading. To be honest, short term trading and even day trading is also not profitable at this time. The prices keeps on going down and no one knows when it will recover. People are getting impatient of holding but it is the best thing to do for now especially if you are one of those who have invested when prices are still high. Looking at the price chart and finding it red most of the time is stressful, this is definitely what volatile means. We can't always have high prices all the time, the market also have to move down to balance the demand and supply. Learn how to wait, have faith and wait for the investors to flood ( or be one of them) because they will surely be active at very dumped prices.Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

I think you should not keep any coin at the current time, it is clear that the market is falling into crisis, so if you hold the coin at this point will be extremely danger. I close you at this time should trade short, and trading by the day, should not trade long-term risk will be huge. Market fluctuations are hard to predict, so you need to have specific plans before the trade.https://medium.com/@ShrimpyApp/crypto-investors-want-free-money-stop-hodling-30f547130266 Title: Re: Still HODLing?

Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Koro-Sensei on April 06, 2018, 11:29:22 AM HODLING is the better way than anything. Why choose better but not safer as much as i want to believe but my previous experience are to blame that this explanation may be hard to get and grasp the most of it. Believing a better way and taking granted for much safer is the common idea of an average person but you can change it by getting out of your comfort zone and try different things most of the time it pays out good to you if not then wait until it's your time.

Thank you for the idea mate, This will be a good option if you are not good in holding coins within a span of time.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Shafiqul Islam on April 06, 2018, 12:50:17 PM It is always a risk of investing a scam... But the wise thing here is that you will not loose all your money at once, but in another hand, you wont will a lot with 25% of your investings, like with 100% Holding is the main objectives in this period. Bitcoin price is so cheap that I will buy some altcoins with cheap price and hold altcoins view to high price .Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: rickadone on April 07, 2018, 04:07:51 PM For now, I'm still holding. I'm currently studying short term trading. I want to earn more for the meantime because my portfolio keeps on falling down. I will just hold the coins which I currently have and will add more coins for short term or day trading. Must be a right move. The thing is that everyone keeps condemning holding until they try out trading without knowledge and then losing all they have completely. It is not all about just trying to take advantage of the market, the reason why a lot of people always say not to panic is so as not to make a mistake of leaving the market at the wrong time thinking you want to buy back lower.If you are not cool with seeing your assets going down, then you can learn how to trade as it is better, even if it is long term just like you are about to do. That way, you can effectively take advantage of the fluctuations. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: justdimin on April 09, 2018, 11:07:31 AM by holding the coin you have of course it is the best way because if you sell it at a very cheap price you will surely get a lot of losses because I think the price of the coin's movement will rise and fall so not always under. The main spot where holding makes a lot of sense is when at least you do not have any idea on how to trade and you are just there investing and looking forward to the future.The truth is that in as much as some people want to take advantage of the situation in the market, they have no knowledge of what to look out for to be able to get these market benefits from the fluctuations and so many people have only ended up screwing up their portfolio that way, unless they just ended up getting lucky. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: BCTBF on April 09, 2018, 01:35:44 PM Hodling is the best way I think if we still believe in crypto and will recover one day. I will not care what they say, because I lost the moment for selling too quickly and the price went up even higher. I just do not want to repeat the same mistake for the second time.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: impulse709 on April 09, 2018, 01:59:59 PM Keep holding in this time may have lots of risk, but it is the only way to buy coins with cheap price. Crypto market keep crashing and go down, i think people still consider in invest or not.So why we not buy and holding now :D

Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: poplolnman on April 09, 2018, 06:51:25 PM I have read the article but didn't understand almost everything I think lol. So the article is just suggesting balancing your portofolio, which is like diversity (?) which is one the golden rule while investing. Investing $5,000 and split into 5 cryptos ($1000 each = 25%) and then change the value of these same 25% to 20-22-24% ? ..with a fixed amount of time between each rebalance. Is it this? Something like that... the OP's articles is a total mess and made with a sole purpose to advertise his 're-balancing service ' shrimpy.io/ I wouldn't fall on this. Everyone aware and do manage their own investment with that kind style , don't need really an automatic bankroll manager , especially the operator have no good track record , why we have to use their service? Even more it's make people think that the service are shady suspicious. Hi poplolnman, this is not true. Rebalancing is definitely not a common strategy in crypto. HODLing is a common strategy, but not rebalancing. Shrimpy is the only application that provides automatic rebalancing for anyone to use. Also, what do you mean we don't have a good track record? We absolutely have a good track record. We released the Crabby application about 6 months ago on this very website, then we released the Shrimpy Alpha version again on this website, now we are releasing our Shrimpy Beta on this website. We have never had a single complaint about our products. You can check my comment history and posts about these other products. I understand why people are suspicious since there are a lot of scams in the crypto space, but our track record speaks for itself. This backtest tool will show you the advantage of using rebalancing. More people should be rebalancing their portfolio. It's as simple as that. https://www.shrimpy.io/backtest?c=EAgGgEFA&p=1d&r=97 People wouldn't even try the app due lack of reputation , I mean tell us who's used your app so far and get the benefit then voluntarily write a satisfaction feedback for your previous project ? People need more than words to trust something , they need a legit proof . Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: gudrun on June 14, 2018, 10:39:06 PM Rebalancing is like stealing candy from a baby. You guys need to take a look at this! I think you should not invest long term at this point, the risk will be very high, you can see that bitcoin prices in the past few days are constantly plummeting and volatile, which has made the price of altcoin is continuously decreasing. The market is showing signs of falling and the crisis and will continue to fall in the long term, so long-term investment will bring you high risk.https://medium.com/@ShrimpyApp/crypto-investors-want-free-money-stop-hodling-30f547130266 Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: drachman on June 15, 2018, 12:39:54 AM Rebalancing is like stealing candy from a baby. You guys need to take a look at this! There are other ways, holding for the long term is basically going long on bitcoin for a very long time and while that is a very effective strategy you can do the opposite, you can short bitcoin thinking the price will decrease this can be a very effective strategy if you time it correctly, obviously that is more risky than just holding but the profits of changing your position from time to time from long to short and vice versa are there.https://medium.com/@ShrimpyApp/crypto-investors-want-free-money-stop-hodling-30f547130266 Title: Re: Still HODLing?

Please share your knowledge so we can also improve but if you're referring to day trading i think that's useless, as far as i know only few of millions that does trading everyday succeeded. So holding might not be much but after some time with risking all you have there's only two options loss or win it's your call if you want to proceed into risking or taking it back to use it.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Siren on June 15, 2018, 01:12:39 AM well i think u can hold but with more risky way that may make u poor or rich ;D simply sell high and buy low for example u are holding an alt coin and it started to dip sell to btc and when dip over rebuy it and u will gain more coins but u may lose also since the market can play u and the coin may go up while u sold ;D its too nervous and stressful tried it and failed ;D but ik many ppl gained money and other saved their capital Hi iillaa, This is exactly what Shrimpy does, automatically. Rebalancing is a strategy where you automate the process of selling high and buying low. There is no stress involved and no manual trading. This is why Shrimpy was so successful over the last year. The volatile market compounded those gains every time it sold high and bought low. Shrimpy Team Well for me thisis same as diversify ideas in which I commonly uses so theres nothing new but thanks anyway Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

To hodl means you have to look past the bear season which may very well take months to recover. Of course even in this kind of market there will be opportunities to buy and sell but if you're not much of an efficient trader, forget your coins and check it back next year.

I personally am not interested in this strategy because throughout my career as a trader I have focused on very few options when it comes to investing, and I prefer to study each cryptocurrency with dedication to have some degree of certainty in its future behavior, before to hold a lot of them to make my gains depend on the laws of probability.

Here is a good article that details a comparison between HODL and rebalancing: https://hackernoon.com/rebalance-vs-hodl-a-technical-analysis-6f341b0db9cd Just to be clear, rebalancing does not select the assets for you. You still need to select the assets you wish to have in your portfolio. So, you get to do the research and make sure your portfolio holds the assets you want to hold. Some services like Crypto20 automatically select the portfolio, but services like Shrimpy do not. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

Well, you could do short term trading when the price rises up even little bit. You can sell it afterwards and then wait the price is down again. That's a common way to earn money on short term, although it would have higher risk than hodl.Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

Many altcoins gone down crazily, make sure you put your money upon them as well. HODL crypto,won't advise to sell off against fiat right now unless necessary.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Zocadas on August 23, 2018, 07:12:52 PM Hodling is for me the only succesful way to take benefits from well established cryptocurrencies and new currencies with meaningful projects. It lays in the current nature of important cryptos, that they will go up on longterm, because their potential of use Because their potential is far from exhausted, but on the contrary, just at the beginning. The blockchains with their cryptocurrencied are similar to the two competing software companies, which are told to have started in a garage and with a bitten apple. Today, the companies are worth billions and we can't imagine to be without them in business and personal life.

Yeah I guess it is what it is. Just diversify your investment and then you are good to go with the holding of the crypto. I guess there is way of holding which states that you must not keep the holdings in one single coins because that would not be profitable over the time. It will get profitable when you hold multiple coins and in that case some of the coins starts plunging upwards more as compared to others and thats the time when you realise the holding with diversification is important. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: nydiacaskey01 on August 23, 2018, 07:55:20 PM For me Hodling is a safe way of trading in cases when you don't wan't to check the price of Bitcoin from time to time. There are even times when I try to be a day trader but after selecting the wrong coin, I will shift from day trader to a long term hodler because the price dropped and I can't sell at loss. Hodling is an option if you want to trade but can earn more if you can trade more in a daily basis.

If you are a good trader then the short term trading is also a good choice because it helps investors quickly recover capital and profits during the day to limit risk. Holding in this time is not safe because the main trend of the market is still not determined so investors should have strategies for themselves.Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

In the article, he made a simulator for you. The simulator uses the right data from the exchange to make the backtest for the past year. Well, what I believe is, sometimes successful strategies in the past don't work at other times. Analysis and following market trends remain my guidelines. If the situation forces me HODL for one year or more, then I will do it. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

Holding is good or bad will be according to situation of crypto and timing to start and to sell the coins.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: TimeTeller on August 24, 2018, 04:40:35 AM The last thing we need is another joker telling to have found a better way to make money. People don't want to expose themselves to the risks of owning altcoins, and neither do I. If you look at the market throughout the last years, then it's obvious that nothing beats hodling. What you suggest isn't anything new, and is something certain people are already doing, but without much success. People who point out that there is a better way than hodling always have something else that plays an important role, and in this case it isn't any different as the above poster pointed out. There is no easy money to be made. I think the bottomline what the article wants to convey is the simple rule of investment- "Never put all your eggs in one basket." But, telling us to hodl? Maybe, for some altcoins, it is true. But, most coins or tokens, if you will hodl, you will be crazy for what will happen to your investments, because you will lose all of them. You need to be careful what projects will you be supporting with. Try studying their platform first and assess if they have the chance of growing into something big. Title: Re: Still HODLing?

Instead of trying to stick to that choice, you can look for another path to better survival, become a day traders and short term, with the current market fluctuations, it is not too hard for you or many othersTitle: Re: Still HODLing?

Therefore i don't think waiting is the best choice. Watch out, plenty of coins mean the same amount of luck for profit. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Alfiehob on October 13, 2018, 01:58:59 PM I dont like diversifying my investment because you'll only gain a little from it i like investing my money as a whole so you can have big returns. But if i have the funds to invest i'll invest it in two strong currencies with good fundementals and still progressing and gaining revenue overtime that is BTC and ETH. You can hold however the trouble with holders is that they go all in at once and than hope the price will go up in the long run. That is not what long term investment looks like, if you want to do long term investment properly than you need to divide your money up and reinvest constantly instead of all in at once. For example instead of putting 1000 dollar into bitcoin at once you can invest 100 dollars monthly for 10 months, that makes it better. Also when people say "hodl" they do not mean 6 months or something, the right way for "long term" investment is until your retirement. I honestly believe bitcoin could be insane amounts when I am 60 years old for example. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way!

ETH and BTC are good long-term investments and are very good projects that have a great use and a great community Keeping is a bad choice in electronic money especially in Bitcoin, if you want to make money, you should sell today in a much lower price if you want to buy more. Then you can wait a bit for the market to pump up again. Hold is the best choice, it is enough that the person has patience Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Itjoker on October 13, 2018, 05:55:59 PM Rebalancing is like stealing candy from a baby. You guys need to take a look at this! IMHO holding is not actual anymore. Now it is better to make quick money with low riskiness operations during the day. I try to open order, make about 5% of bought amount and get my profit fixing it in USD.https://medium.com/@ShrimpyApp/crypto-investors-want-free-money-stop-hodling-30f547130266 Title: Re: Still HODLing?

For some reason people here seem to believe that 'trading' is a failsafe route to infinite gains when the reality is that most fuck it up eventually. I find those who diss holders very tiresome. Different things work for different people. I know with total certainty that if I'd tried to be all clever with my moves I wouldn't have a pot to piss in right now. Title: Re: Still HODLing?

But if you bought it last few years ago you can still have profit and you will still earn money even the price decrease.Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: Yamifoud on October 13, 2018, 11:55:43 PM As we came into high volatility mode, holding might be a smart thing to do. But it doesn't mean we keep on holding all the time, we do trades if we see a better price even it doesn't give us much profits at least we'vr earn from our investment. We just continue buy and sell strategy and feel comfortable of what the market condition we have now.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: djselery on October 14, 2018, 12:23:14 AM Holding is the best choice actually in my opinion. The crypto market is still down, and selling nowadays with the actual rates isn't profitable at all.
Maybe you can sell the coins with low value or potential, but you should hold the most promising cryptocurrencies (like Bitcoin, Ethereum..) for selling later with higher prices. Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: crabby on October 14, 2018, 01:23:00 AM This article shows why HODLing is not better:

Holding alternative coins even more riskier at this moment since only bitcoin is standing strong and comfortable at this moment so disregard that planMaybe you can sell the coins with low value or potential, but you should hold the most promising cryptocurrencies (like Bitcoin, Ethereum..) for selling later with higher prices. Best to hold is bitcoin for the security and reliability purposes,this cryptocurrency is tried and tested to grow year after year so don’t doubt its capabilities Ethereum is in dying position these days,dropping drastically and tooking over the position by ripple is one bad indication for the said coin Title: Re: Still HODLing?

Those long standing coins are worth holding on because they have proven their worth for the past few years. Even if their value is down, there are still people who are willing to buy it because they have been use for their actual use cases unlike more or less 95% of other coins that are existing yet for trading purposes. This coins has a tendency to not go up again if the market would be doing good because investors would be flocking to buy those coins that has a real purpose. Title: Re: Still HODLing?

Post by: Lmaooo on October 14, 2018, 10:05:11 AM If you are a beginner in cryptocurrency it is advisable to always better to HODL your coins to avoid losing money in trading because you are inexperienced and lack trading knowledge. Once you learn the trading basics you can go ahead to start trading, start small and once it's profitable you can invest more.
Title: Re: Still HODLing? There must be better way! Post by: hicies on October 18, 2018, 07:55:23 AM Since price of crypto possible to pump and dump because the market cap is low, hodling will be not really profitable. To make profit we should be analysis the fundamental and the trend of the market, and we should be know for how long we should be hold the coin, we should be sell after the price all the times high because the price possible to doing down to 90%. In this time I think that every holder should hold his coins because here is no positive activity in the market and there are no effective trading chances. You cannot make money from trading. If you hold your coins for some more time you will definitely earn huge money in the future, because this rough situation will not last longer and good days will come soon. |
