Intraday vs HODL

In the current market situation which one best and what do u guys prefer

There's no such thing as a "best" choice when talking about these. If you know how to profit through doing day trading/intra-day trading, then go with it. If you'd rather do something else like having a job/business, while  hold on to bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general for years and simply wait out the price rises, then go hodl. As you may know, we're still in a bear market, whereas the prices are still slowly going down currently, then obviously the hodl strategy won't work(in the short term at least).

What's "best" really just depends on you.

People will have different answer for your question but all depend your analysis, most people will say " Intraday ". This method use short term period ( 1h - 4h - day ), small range and mostly in 1 - 2 day closed. It will avoid you from down trend because already closed not hold. Which one is the best up to you, just go and do your best.

hold is no longer effective in the current market conditions. now i prefer for intraday and in my opinion it can give me enough profit.

"Hodling" can still be very effective whether or not we're in a bear market, it just hugely depends on how long you're actually willing to hold your coins/tokens. Short term though? of course it isn't likely to work. But if you hold it for years to come? It could definitely work; but it also depends on which coins/tokens you actually hold.

I prefer intra day to holding at this current time.  Holding has not been and easy one as those that followed that pattern of trade are having themselves to be blamed.  I strongly believe that intraday traders are the one really making money from this market at this uncertainty time.

There is no best, this depends on a changing situation. There are times when you have to do intraday and there are times when you have to do HODL because the market is fluctuating and you have to be flexible with that situation.

When you say "intraday" do you mean scalping?
If yes,I would say that you should start with a small investment and gain some experience.
HODLing is for people,who are not traders.It's easy,but it requires patience and the ability to NOT freak out,every time,when the price crashes.

If you are looking at short term then Trading is the best option but if you are asking about long term then you can hold. But, Even when you are holding you need to have a portfolio which can balance up the volatility.

Trading: Currently, Waves is performing really well for short term. It has surged more than 300% and proved to be a winner during recent bear market.
For analysis refer: https://coinswitch.co/news/top-performing-coins-in-jan-19-week-2-waves-xlm-ardor-analysis

Hold: And For long term portfolio I would prefer BTC, TRX, ETH, Waves, XRP and few more...

If you have specified the duration your are looking for there could have been a better discussion.

Both has it's pros/cons.

So it really up to you, what's your goal? Short term gains or go for the Long haul?

While for others, not well adept on trading, they would rather load their wallets with coins specially it's pretty cheap at of the moment.

While for those mid-experience levels trading, there are opportunities to make money even if we're in the bear market.

Don't go for trading now,the market is still has no positive sign so the volatility also less which makes less or no profitable for the traders.When we say HODL it needs lot of patience as well so make yourself ready to wait longer when you become holders.

In both method traders can make handsome profits. success rate only depends on traders experience. If you can make right time entry as a buyer  i beleive you can earn enough from "intraday" rading

Another one "HODL" is always effective for a trader if he can pick a nice project.



 

Sure, volatility can definitely decrease your potential profit, but not because the market isn't "positive" it doesn't automatically mean you can't make money in the current market situation. A good trader can make money regardless if it's a bull market or a bear market. I'm definitely not claiming that I'm a good trader though.

Wrong comparison. If you're trading at all, you're not HODLing. So the question should be "trade vs. HODL?"

I try to have the best of both worlds. I hold most of my coins in cold storage. Then I use leverage on exchanges like Bitmex, Deribit, and Bitfinex so I can fully hedge my stash if needed.

OP, in any market situation, just HODL. You do not have the experience, and the resources to out-trade the professional traders' bots, and the whales. They will eat you alive.

This is a good advise for people who lost a lot of money in the bear market in 2018. You just have to wait before investing again. However, there are cases that traders will take this opportunity to also produce money, it might be difficult though, but it's possible as well, like what day or intraday traders are doing right now.

Right now ? Intraday looks like a better option. On long term ? Hodl is still the king. The difference between intraday and investing is that if you do intraday on a bad market there is really no chance of losing too much amount, you can still lose and if you are doing margin trading and leveraging and so forth that means it would be risky but if you are just regular buying and selling during bottom times you will have a chance to profit from the trend upwards movements.

Moreover, when it comes to long term investment, if you are going to hodl until the price is above 20 thousand dollar again then there is no point of spending effort and time into intraday, it is both risky and also takes a lot of time and instead you can just buy once, store it and wait until it goes up which is easier and takes no effort you, just takes longer time to profit.

All crypto already dumped hard and according to history price all that coin has potential to rise again, so if bull market really coming, only by hold we can make more than 10x profit. But to reach that huge profit we have to patient waiting for bull market, and if you want to make monthly profit to do day trading is recommended.

It varies from traders itself, strategies are different in a certain situation, I love to actively trade when market is bullish.
At the current situation, I'm not day trading anymore, I just prefer to HODL my coins I suppose to be trading, and it's added to my previous HODL coins.
I'm into long term now since based on my experience, it's hard to make the right timing at this stage and I just failed most of the time.

Well it really depends on your skill and experience, intraday trading really need a lot of experience and a lot of time focusing on the market, but if you are good at it then you can get a lot of of profit despite of the market movement, holding is for someone that doesn't has the time to pay attention to the chart or the one that doesn't know how to trade well, for now intraday could be more risky because the market is unpredictable

HOLD for major coins, not all, but it's just that you have to be really smart in choosing coins in the current market conditions.

Intraday?
Not recommended at all, it's depends on your luck. Sometimes you'll get worse because of this but when it got you, it could recover your loses

which do you understand and you can do? can you hold back patiently? or are you more skilled in daily trading?
everything depends on your expertise. both have great advantages and risks if you cannot do it professionally

I will prefer to choose to hold. I hold all my tokens and some of tokens are stored in my wallet. My plan for my tokens is to sell it out once the price goes up but now I still hold it than to cut my losses. It's better to hold now than to cut your losses because afraid to lose your entire funds.

I also think best choice depends on your skills. You should continue from way that brings you profit. Maybe you should split money. While some are on hold, you can try the rest part in daily trading.

yes, when market prices are difficult for us to predict, the thing we have to do is be able to measure our own limits, even if we feel we can trade on that day to be able to generate profits, we can use some of our assets to be traded, and some of our assets , we can still hold it.

It depends on how you translate this to make profits. If you do day trading, you have to monitor the market daily and make less profit. When you hodl, you need more patience in your investment because you will never know when you can get the profit, may it years or months.

It's necessary to monitor the market in a daily basis to ensure that you are full aware of the situation and come up with a great decision.
However, making less profit is not that fixed, you can also make big profit since anytime a coin can explode, I've seen a lot of times about some
coins who can pump 100% to 300% in just a day, and I think if you will ride on that, it will bring you more profit.


Even when day trading you also need more patience, you cannot just make a decision when it's not based on your target.
We have target in trading and to ensure you'll act with a proper timing, patience plays a vital rule.

Having that within yourself, will give you a better future in trading, either day trading or long term.

I think you can decide with your experience, you can make a change with up and down the price.
If you have a good coin (bitcoin, ethereum), and my suggest you must Hold it.

I prefer to choose intraday trading because the price of crypto can be changed in high percentace just in afew hours. Intraday trading by using stop loss and trailling stop will help to minimize the risk. Decide to Hodl right now can be also profitable but we can get the return in long day.

i have experienced both the play and both are suitable for different project,there are some project for them its better to sell fast and convert it to next desired investment and for potential project its better to hold them for big profit but its upto you as per my experience i have seen selling some project token fast had lead to regret.but if you got free time then it better to go for day trading but if your are working then its better to hold and sell those token or coin whose you can't trust for long for profit.

I prefer to make daily trade and hold in this situation. Although we have difficulties with daily trade because there are too many potential coins to choose from the market. We can found that coin by doing analyze of the coin. No need to take a bigger profit if we feel it is hard and we only need to take any profit we can see so we could make money from daily trading. I guess that this month will be back to the good month again for us so our profit will become bigger.

We have different skills and perspective. The answer to your question is depends on the trader. If I will pick which one is suitable for me, I will pick the long term investment than day trading. I do not have enough analyzation skills so it is better if I will do HODL than day trading.

I dont recommend to anyone to HODL except 2-3 coins BTC, ETH, and XRP. Maybe 10 biggest marketcap coins/tokens. You can trade or invest for short term to the alts (small caps) but never HODL an alt

Personally I still believe on crypto so I choose to hold.
Of course I'm not stupid because I'm also set my loss tolerance but I'm not sold it all at once.

Crypto still need more time to adapt so I'm sure the value will increase in the future, it's just a matter of time !

With the current situation, intraday is a better choice than Hodl when the market does not have stable growth. The market is still moving in red and has not found an exit. We need to wait for it to wait for it to escape this bloody maze.

Intra day trading and long term holding suit different types of investors. If you don’t have the day trading skill, it is better to invest for the long term.

It depends on people's "experience".

Obviously, doing an intraday trades will be difficult to beginners on a learning period. They can just take some risks and test the waters of doing that once they able to gained at least a bit of knowledge of what will be the things they will encounter on the way.

Now to answer directly your question about my own preferences, my point of view with the current market situation will depends on a certain coin. For bitcoin, my primary goal is continous accumulation with no such exact timeframe when it will be dumped, in other words, to HODL. For altcoins, we need another discussion here as I have different approach on my coins on my portfolio.

You don't need to have any information for holding, all you should do is waiting. But the other choice is risky and requires more knowledge and experience. First, do you feel ready for this? Then why are you waiting?

Everything depends on your approach towards it. I was once HODLing until I realised that I wasn't doing myself any good, my portfolio continued to decline. Since we are in a bear market, no steady uptrend, best bet is to trade at each highs and lows. Taking profit at each trade. Even though this is very risky if you don't have the experience.

It's up to you actually, holding is a known working strategy but the period to hold in order to take profit could be long.
If you cannot wait and you want to be profitable in short term, then day trading is the solution, but it's riskier with lack of skills, you need
to train yourself first and if proven you can do it, then that's the time you slowly unleash a bigger funds for better profit.

Holding bitcoin, ethereum, ripple will be a good decision although there are many more coins that will potential to increase. But if he wants to trade daily, then the altcoin will be a good choice because with so many altcoins that might increase soon, he can buy at least with top 10 list from coinmarketcap to make daily trade so he can have a chance to get better profit and he can also make another profit from the long-term investment.

If i were you i would choose holding for now since it is bearish market and profit for trading would not be that high if you win a trade.  You cannot determine if you lose or win while holding since there is no official profit income not unlike trading that is determined instant. It also depends on the coin you have if it has a potential to withstand the market or not .

Yeah holding is always a good option during bearish market. Patience always matters a lot for a trader.

Without having enough knowledge its not a wise decision to start daytrading. I always prefer to learn before start to earn.

I also like that with indeed that it is a better and better way for us to get the desired benefits, especially when market conditions like this are better ways to hold

In this current market situation, the best trading style that we should use is the long term investment. There are many risks in doing day trading and it is really hard to understand and analyze the movement of every coin due to its volatility.

Honestly current market is the worst one to go for intraday trading. The very first reason is, market isn't moving a bit with great velocity. For intraday trading there has to be some movement on going all the time to take at least 1%+ profit to be in the game.

I just see buying and HODL as best option in the current market. Look around you, its all down to the bottom and there is not a single reason you can say no to HODL. It has got big ground up front to hike itself and go green along with your investments.

the best choice when the market conditions are like this is that you should be able to wait until the price returns, if you see the current market conditions are starting to recover prices a bit, so keep waiting until prices can become more expensive, daily trading will only make you sorry for selling at a cheap price.

do not hold it now because the market conditions are not good prices fall faster and take a long time to go up, trade by looking for 1-2% profit every day that's good

Both are important in cryptocurrency trading intraday and holding we gain instant profits in intraday and holding we gain long term profits both need equal amount of patience

For me, intraday will not make you at ease. HODL is a better choice. You have a peace of mind keeping and waiting, less stress and you can still do some tasks while watching the market to do a bull run.

If you want to make money in crypto market with less risk avoid hodl because alot of investor include me been loss more than 90% from hodl. Crypto market has very high fluctuacion and the price everytimes is changed so to do trading is much better to get more profit with less risk. Its hard to predict trend of crypto market in the long term, so trading with risk management is better to avoid big loss.

It seems to me that the market has reached the bottom. If you still have money you can buy anything from the top ten cryptocurrencies. I hope that growth will begin in the next 2 months. In fact,of course,many people do not have money, there is no influx of new customers to the stock exchange, there is no price increase.

i dont know what is intraday means  but im verry familliar  with the word hodl so i go for hodl  and i think hodl is more easier than intraday or any other profitable activities out there  .


lol . are you joking right ? hodling is the safest way to earn a profit but you must still choose the best candidate for your portfolio .  hodling also needs a good timing on when to sell  . you cant just buy and leave your assets  .  you must also check the price more oftenly  if there is already a good opurtunity to sell .

If you just bought at this very low market then HODL is always a choice to be preferred if you are down with just 10 to 20 percent for one coin.
Since you are already buying it for a cheaper price it wont hurt that much.
You could pick the what you call "intraday" too if you can gain something out of this slow market. Which is mostly the problem of every trader by now.

For me, it takes a day to see some good changes. Mostly it is just a couple of dollars for hours and you really got too wait more.
Lastly, it will depend on you at where you are comfortable with.

it's true that holding back is a great way to deal with a market like this, the solution if you hold back in the long run to get the benefits you want is easy if in my opinion

Buy the dip, sell the hype. DYOR on any project you are investing in, set your targets before buying. Im hodl as long as project is active and got faith, taking profits once in a while. When i lose faith or project is dying cut my losses and move on.

Since crypto is high risk trading, personally I try to hold as long as possible.

Less stress, huge profits, who don't like it?

I would not suggest to do intraday trading, but if you are good at it and if you can read the signals then it is a really great way to make money irrespective of the market situation, what i suggest is to invest when the market is down and hold for the long term, market will recover eventually, follow the market trend and sell accordingly and make your profit, as long as people view bitcoin as a medium of storage rather than currency, the market will play like that.

It depends on your skills. If you are a good trader and you have a profit almost every month than day trading is the best decision.

This is depend on the trading plan and times that you can spend for trading.  Currently  day trading offer more profit because alot of altcoin was going up to 10% -50%  and then going down again. At the moment crypto market sideaway so doing day trading is promising more profit.  Hold for swing trading is more promising profit in bull market only. 

Agree, For coin in the top marketcaps of course the life span can still be long, because the development is still running. so it's not a problem to holding in that coin, but for a small altcoin, which is not famous. it is certainly very risky if you hold it, maybe it's better if you just trade it

Exactly, at this time when only good coins is surviving, we should focus on good coins with high volume so the risk is minimize.
Trading is not easy or investing, but we can always do the right thing to minimize the risk, investing in low volume or unpopular coins maybe
too risky, if you got lucky you might make a fortune when it pump but you should consider the opposite as well.

Sometime small investors have very little amount to invest in the market and get a reasonable profit from there.

I think for such investors they need to choose coins having low value but good potentials. Which we can expect that in future their price can increase too much. By studying the market on regular bases and with keen interest I hope that we can easy find and choose such coins.

As an professional trader, I will prefer to go for intraday trade than holding my coin because i can make even more money doing this. For example, is i carry out an intraday trade with 1 btc, i can make as high as 1.1 btc just in one day which have given me even more bitcoin value than just hodling bitcoin and waiting for the day we are going to get a bull run. I didn't say hodling is bad, but i mean a professional trader won't like the HODL.

If we talk about the date of 4 January for the day trade was more logical because the markets (I'm just talking to the markets I used) were quite unstable, there was a constant increase and decrease. Investors that use that unstable situation well can make a nice profit. But if we talk for the moment, hodl seems to be a better choice.

In current market situation i prefer to do swing trading and holding some good coin.  All crypto very cheap now and if tye price has potential to going up to the highest price because the market cap of crypto is undervalued, and when the price going up to the top again we will make multiple times profit.  So keep hold strong and later we can change our financial.

I am sure you can get much profit from trade with 1 btc especially if you can find the right coin that will give you a chance to make a lot of money. But for people who don't have enough skills in trading, they cannot make a big profit, and I suggest them to trade in once in a few days following the market moves.

Some of my friends say that if we use a bigger budget to trade, the chance for us to make a bigger profit will wide open because if we can buy low price coins at one price, then the price increase for at least 5 satoshis, we can make a lot of money from that coin. Just imagine how much we can get if the coin price can increase more than 1k satoshi.

But still, holding and trading will depend on every people because we don't have the same skills in trading.

Day trading wouldn't be very profitable for you, if you are a newbie and haven't got much experience, then go for long-term hold, it would be less risky and you would gain some profit in the long run.

Choose according to who you are, if you don't have a lot of broad skills and knowledge. then daytrade doesn't suit to you, but that doesn't mean you have to avoid daytrade, I admit that daytrade has a greater profit. if you want it, then study first mate..

Day or daily trading isn't very easy as a newbie without knowledge in trading you wouldn't be profitable this requires vast knowledge in charting particularly analysis in Candlestick patterns whereas HODL will be surest means of making  profit as a beginner, recalled in December 2018 the price of bitcoin retraced or pullbacked to $3300 newbies who bought and HODL must have taken some profits now without any technical  or fundamental inputs in regards to just buying and HODL.

Both are very good if your strategy is correct, lately the market has started to go green, followed by a few minor corrections, so for me the day trade is better to take advantage of the corrections that occur. If you say which one is better it depends on how the market moves or fluctuations. I bought it at deep price, then hold is also good because according to market analysis and some people say that the crypto value will slowly increase.

At the bullish market it's easy to day trade, but then again, you need to make sure you can give time with what you are doing.
Day trading needs your time, price volatility gives good entry price but timing is important so you have to do it in a timely manner.
This is good for day traders but if we are not a day trader once in our journey in crypto, maybe we should try to focus on what we are currently doing.

Holding and waiting for the big bull would still payout, patience is just needed.

If OP has knowledge to trading then I bet he won't ask what shall he do in this market situation. And yeah seems like he is newbie to cryptocurrency so as day trading or do trading is not the best to do for him. HODL is the best way for him because the risk that will be faced just a little instead he do buy and sell just guessing the candle movement. I just weird to someone who made a thread in this forum just for ask the best way to do for him for his investment to make a profit. Something that will make him be fooled by someone else.

It completely depends upon the coin we choose them in the list we have in CMC, it is not an easy job some times to make a huge amount of the profit. Potential coins will always have a huge impact on the market which we can manage to hold them in the long term instead of short term. The coins which don't have any potential it is good to trade them on a daily basis in order to make a decent profit.

That will be our job to find the right coin base on the market and CMC will only give a little sign to us. The market will give more sign about the potential coins so we could analyze every coin so we can buy the right coin. But if you want to hold them for a long time, then you don't have to worry if somehow the price is down because I am sure that the price was adjusted first before it increases to the higher price.

There isn`t intraday (first time I hear that word in crypto) vs hodling, you need to do both if you wish to be successful in the long term! You can`t intraday with all your money, thats to risky for everyone, you cant hodl all the time, you need to spend some from time to time.
There isnt one thing in crypto thats the best, there are so many things that should and can be done with just one lap top, if you have more monitors, more computers you can do more. There isn`t ethereum vs bitcoin, trading vs holding, dicks vs pussy, in the end you need to know and do almost everything.

For new learners they should not start directly with intraday but consider it HODL for best survival in the market. Professionals usually day trade as they see great profit here than HODL but they also love to HODL because they want to stick with the market for long life. It also depends upon market conditions that should be considered favorable or not, it needs market research as well. So, learners should learn intraday first.

Both intraday as well as Holding can be good as long as you wisely choose your investments. There are some coins which can give you a lot of opportunity daily to make profits by selling at peak and at the same time buying at the dip.

Few cryptocurrencies like Bitcoins have the ability to make you have enough profits if you are willing to hold them for some interval. Bitcoins will show great growth and now is the price to buy bitcoins at the dip. Bitcoins might never be such lower in future may be if the bull markets arrive. Intraday is good for short volume coins but it might not be good for higher volume stable coins as we can't really have much profit in buying or selling them.

As long as I have heard, Intraday is a term used for stock exchanges. It can be also called as short term investment and Holding offcourse means long-term holding. There are thousands on coins in the market and it really depends on each individual about in which coin he/she really want to invest into.

Some like investing in coins which already have their working products which could be exchanges for goods or some might like popular coins amongst the top 10 coins from the CoinMarketCap and might invest there for long term. And I do agree with you that we have to continually keep on cycling all such trades to make profits as well as manage our day-to-day livings.

top crypto coins are good for both trading and investing ,but investing in top crypto coins you will need capital more, if you can search good altcoins projects which are developing and working on there product that would be good investment

as for trading many coins will be ok as you don't hold positions for longer time

It depends on the investor/trader/holder.

For example, I don't know how to trade then I'd prefer holding my coins. It will give lower profit in the short run but it is less risky compare to trading. Low risk = low reward.

On the other hand, if I know how to do trading then I'd prefer to do trading rather than holding it. It will give me higher profit but there is a higher risk on it because the price movement of crypto is unpredictable. High risk = high reward.

As you said there is high risk in making high profits but it does not exist where the factor changes. The factor of unstable prices can be determined by doing market research as we have seen that alteration is a part of coin but later on we get profit as a result of high ups in its value. It happens as a result of holding your coins for a long time; if you are not holding then the profit may be less. Otherwise, holding is a best way to make high profits.

In my experience too, we may day-trade with very little risk but the rewards too will be very little. If you refer the factors which are related to risks and when we focus on them I guess those intraday method of trading slowly changes into holding kind of trading. Yes, only very few factors are deciding which is intraday and which is holding type of trading. Still, I agree we may leave off few things in intraday so that we may achieve high performances in short period of time itself.

I do believe the time factor is the biggest differences between intraday and holding. At the same time when we are good in technical analysis and able to catch the end points then time frame may get shrunk into as little as intraday type of trading.

If it was so easy to know when the market is going down and when its going up then trading would have been much easier and everyone would be trading rather than doing other work to earn. TA is something that should be taken with a large dose of salt. Things like these dont just depend on trends that are being set but also on news that makes the market move.

A good example is the recent Binance hack that led to a loss in the BNB coin. BNB itself is a nicely disguised ponzi scheme but hey, whatever makes you turned on - right?

Hence take future speculations lightly and not as advice. Its better to be prepared for worst case scenarios.

Isn’t it better to invest all your money in few best coins that to do so with so many coins with low prospect of growth? Bitcoin and ETH gives you great outputs in the market these days. Many other Altcoins are also good for speculation. DO not fear the high cost of investment. You can have ETH at around $174 right now and trust me it is going to rise in days to come.

That is not good to invest all his money to the best coins because at least, he needs to survive in every day and he cannot survive if he uses all his money to invest in cryptocurrency. Maybe he needs to divide his money into two parts, one part for his daily needs and the other parts to invest in cryptocurrency. And in the parts for cryptocurrency, he can divide again for investing in many coins so he can have a chance to take more profit from the various coin.

I am waiting for this growth for long. Each day, checking the rates, I do not find that ETH has changed its price greatly. I suspect that this "calmness" is a period before a real storm. Ethereum will go up.

Depends how much profit you are willing to make, how fast and how much of a risk you can handle. Being a day trader and sell your coins in a day poses huge risk. You might be making making small losses which might add up and make it a huge loss. Again, you will be making some quit profit. But holding gives you better chance of making a steady profit in the long run. You will have to have patience to reap in the rewards :).

Keep hoping so and you might see better results soon. But a word of advice would be not to spend your sleep on altcoins because we have seen how worthless they become when the bear market starts. Only bitcoin is what is worth putting money in for a technological point of view and future growth potential.

How far Eth can go is what is keeping these traders alive to kick it back every time it drops, or it is just plain old bagholding tactics to promote and shill it so they can sell at higher price and make some quick buck.

Just look at where the price is going and decide yourself. See if you think that the value of the coins you have could gain weight. If yes, you should HODL and wait until you make the good money. Normally no one will day trade but rather trade extensively in a bullish market. Day trade gives you small profits and you need to know that you can make some big money in crypto as well. It’s up to you which way to go.

when the price situation is still often volatile I prefer to hold an asset in a relatively long term so panic can be overcome and I tend to invest in bitcoin and ethereum in opening opportunities to get maximum profits in the future.

It depends on what you want to achieve with your investments, if you want profits with a very small amount of risk then investing in bitcoin, ethereum and other good coins will surely give you the profits you are looking for, the problem is that those coins are not going to grow as much as they did in the past and as such your profits will be smaller, but if what you are after are absolute profits then you need to invest in coins that are not very well known, the risks are higher but the profits can be higher as well.

i dont think holding in this time will bring us more profit than trading when the market is getting higher back higher every day, holding wont help you get more profit so as trading when we can easily have the huge profit everytime the matket fluctuates, and also be able to control our fund more effective and safer than just holding.

I think everything depends on what the person wants to achieve, because if he is a trader that always operates in the market, it is very likely that he always operates intraday or at some point leaves the medium term, but if he is a person who has the thought of investor, will not hesitate to invest, this is true as long as the person divides the way they want to operate and obtain benefits and how they operate in the market to have the patience for both types of trading to apply.

Hold in my case is very difficult, because I am not an investor, I do not have so much money or time to wait for such a bullish bitcoin trend, many people say that we are bullish, I know that we still have a lot to be bullish, so if can somehow diversify money into a single currency, I would not hesitate to leave it in bitcoin a part for intraday and another part would leave it to hold bitcoin months, years, until the bitcoin takes its bullish tendency to be able to think about making profits.

There are many operators who are desperate that want to invest in bitcoin and want to get benefits in a short time, this is not investing, because if we think that way right now it is difficult because we are in a clear stage of the accumulation market, where the volatility is very high, in fact we can see the bitcoin easy to reach $ 10k but can fall quickly even up to $ 3k because the bitcoins are not fully accumulated, and while this is the case the market will not be bullish.

Not all of us want to be a trader and some will just consider themselves as a simple marker holder, and they'll just do the basic buy in low and sell at high.
Trading needs knowledge and the risk is too high where some of us are afraid of.
I believe that holding is good but not all the time, we also learn to let go and take the opportunity to the other.

yes, holding if only for the short term in my opinion it will never succeed, we must dare to trade on that day, even though it is a big risk of trading in a situation like this now but we must dare to do speculation, keep calm and just look at market price movements at this time, and we will regret if the crypto price will go up higher, it will only make us regret not trading when the is still at the lowest price.

That's a common thinking of those who can work with day trading, if you can proceed and make any good trading strategy you can practice and make a good profits each time you play with the sway, make sure to assess and analyze your skills.

It's nice if we are in assessing ourselves, we could be bias sometimes especially if we have a problem with handling our loses.
Being a day trader is not easy, you will have to ensure that you have monitored the market all the time as you are looking for the right entry and good timing does not show all the time.

Fast money, needs fast action as well, that's how day trader do.

No matter how little the profit day trade gives, it is still profit and moreover it depends on the amount of money that is being used to trade, not all day traders makes small profit, money is really never enough and I think the wisest thing to do for those that knows how to trade would be to just do both.

Going for both makes it easy for the investors to be more patient with his long term holding since he still has what is given him daily profit no matter how little it will be, at least it will definitely foot some of his bills.For those who does not know how to trade or would not take the risk of day trading, I think it would be better they just hold.

In that volatile market is when so many intraday/shorterm traders are really taking enough profit and compounding the quantity of coin they are holding, as we know of the volatile market of Bitcoin.

we know that there will always be dip before picking on its next value, one could take profit, wait for dip and buy again with both capital and profit, in this way, one is still playing the double game of holding and at the same time short trading which gives more profit in the long run, than those that just held their coin from bottom till they get the hit of ATH for them to sell and take profit.

Day trade is a full time job on its own and whoever will engage in day trade must be sometime that has passion for trading and is dedicated, which is the only way one can make profit on a daily basis. A day trader must always be prepared for losses, as no matter how good a day trader is, the entry point will always be a difficult thing which makes them vulnerable to losses. These things are not so easy to really maintain as an ordinary investor.

The best for ordinary investor is just to invest when market is dip and take profit at a satisfactory rate which is usually at the ATH of any coin that is a less tensed investment.

Your tactics should depend on your initial assets. It is impossible to give universal advice. If you trade daily, then trade. If you have the necessary skills, you will always do it perfectly, regardless of the market situation. If you hold certain coins and they have not yet reached the desired point of sale - then continue to hold. And if you bought a lot of coins at high prices and don’t know what to do with them now - then there are two options. The first is to start learning trading. The second is to sell your coins and leave the crypto market forever.

Both of them are trading strategies and you may chose one as you prefer. I think you have to know which one works best for you and you use that as your favorite way. There are people who do intraday trading and they earn so much. If you can't get your grip on the intraday, then I'd recommend you stick to the HODL. After all, you only lose when you sell :D

We simply go for HOLD if it is necessary but if not, there is no need to consider cause there is no profit on keeping it holding.
Trading will help us to be more profitable but the big risk is their so if we are not knowledgeable for this, then better not to risk anything cause it is just a suicide.

Why not get the best of both strategy. If you plan to spend $2,000 USD, put 60% in HODL or long term HODL and the remaining can be used in day trading. Currently I am day trading because I noticed lately that the price of Bitcoin and other coins too fluctuates a lot and least gives me at least 2% profit in a day.

Taking this opportunity now to continue holding and trading some, it's good to have some savings hold for long term and still daily profit to keep living or to buy some more Alts, some coins were affected in bitcoin increase so this chance to earn.

it could be wrong, daily traders will get more profit if they use more capital.
Daily traders can buy several potential altcoins, or arbitrate from various exchangers.
but the risk is also great.

Not too much? are you joking? imagine when you are putting 2 BTC and you can earn about 10% in a day and how much will you get from there? isn't it too much for you? just curious about how much your speculation about the profit that we can get from the daily trade in the market.

It is best to combine both daily and long-term trading for three months, six months and a year, as during the flat you can earn a few percent of profit per week

both of them will be profitable, but it must be done in the right place, if you want to do short-term trading / daytrading, then do it in altcoin because altcoin has a trend that is always changing, but if you want to hold it, it's better to do it in bitcoin. everyone knows bitcoin is the king of crypto currency, so it would be very safe to hold it in the long run.

Its depend upon on us mate. For me, I prefer by holding coin such bitcoin and etherium rather than doing trading daily or intraday because I dont have time fodcthat and also one thing Im not really wise by executing trading in crypto. But someday if I could have ebough time Im willing to learn on that thing, juat for me to grow my knowledge hwre in crypto.

It is definitely a HODL and not a day trade. You do the cost and benefit analysis before making a financial decision and I think that right now, when the rise in the value of Bitcoin is so dominant, you should not really look for low money but some good profits. If you cash out now, you might make lets say $2000 but if you HODL and take risk, we might see another big surge in days to come which would impart some great value to your current investment.

You just said so the current, I guess I'll prefer doing intraday as it is more profitable on the current market situation. If you knew doing some trading analysis that will be more of an advantage if you'll just hodl those coins, just don't be greedy, a 1% profit is nice than take risks of getting more.

I prefer intraday, because in my opinion intraday is safer and risk of loss can be minimized because if the market suddenly moves down we can do cut loss

based on dow theory strategy actually day trading could give us more profits than long term trading.we could take opportunity in each up and down movement.buy and sell several times give us more chance to collect profits.

Hold is preferable to most people; it’s a direct way to make money with little or no risk. You risk making a mistake when selling ahead of time or trying to short the coin.

hold only could take one direction opportunity.but if we doing intraday trade we able to take two direction opportunity from up and down movement.it will give us more profits then.

That will depend on the skills we have because without having a good skill, we cannot do day trading and we will not get any profit. I see a lot of people was trying to do day trading, and some of them can always make a profit daily. They say that the price is not as big as they thought, but they believe that it is only a process before they can make a big profit in one day.

Exactly that's why many day traders right now especially the experienced have more profit than those who just hodl and not taking the opportunity of those movements in the market.

Holding is really a perfect option for those that cannot or do not know how to trade, or those who feel they are this greedy type and cannot control their greed, but trading has lots of profit to me provided  you know how to trade and willing to take risk. From the point bitcoin started rising, do you know how many dips we can count, and how many increase we can also count for those dip?

Just recently that bitcoin jumped from $7000 to $8000, that would have been $1k dollar for someone within few days, now there is a correction back to that $7k, if the person buys and bitcoin goes back to $8000, that is another $1000 making it $2000 in a month, calculate that for a whole year if bitcoin follows the same pattern.

HODL is always a best suggestion given by most of the professional traders considering the previous history. The peoples who HODL their coins from the late 2010-2013 made immense profits as the price for bitcoins was pumped a lot and in some minimum investment, peoples made higher profits so HODLING is always a better thought if you do not have any financial needs which can be fulfilled by selling your coins. You can HODL maximum amount if you really are excited to make yourself rich and wealthy ahead. Intraday(Day-trading) can be riskier for a lot of peoples including new peoples as risk is higher in there compared to profits.

But what if the price for bitcoins fall by -10% once anyone puts 2 BTC into with an intention to make profit per day? This is what makes peoples face loss. There is always high risk in day trading so called as Intraday because the traders there needs to be really quick before the price changes again.

Peoples who are highly motivated and dedicated towards trading can handle Intraday trading profitable but the ones who are into trading just to fill their pockets and exit may have loss as they might not find a exact movement to sell or buy coins again. We can make good profits in day trading but you need to be ready to face higher loss if you are seriously entering short-term trading.

Looking at the current market trend Intraday is the best thing we can do why because in intraday we can trade coins for the best price and book profits immediately now the market is having good volume

But as you said, hold is only working well and effectively in the past, it is a time when the market can still grow very strongly, recovery is also very significant, that makes the risk from this strategy decrease. But at the present time, we can't seem to constantly apply this strategy when the time for us to see the recovery is too long, sometimes we may fall into situations that cannot be restored and that will waste time, and with such a developing risk, I like to trade in the day, risk is always at a level we can accept and profit is very fast

See when price still on bull run. Me think like that too. Daily trade maybe can be profitable especially when bitcoin price keep increased like that. But we must keep to be careful and know when to take profit and stop because price correction can always happen.

I think the moment like some time ago the price of cryptocurrency rose to more than 20% like the price of bitcoin also rose it should be able to use it to sell rather than hold you back, not necessarily you can get a profit.

Actually this all depends on the situation at hand, if the market situation as I am currently recommending is intraday, because now the market often drops suddenly, and that is very dangerous

i guess many people will choose to hold their tokens in this downtrend situation because that is the only way we can have keep our investment safe in the long time future,  but anyone doesn't want to stay still or do notthing will choose to trade because this time is a good time to trade when cryptos are fluctuative high enough for us to get profit from trading, but this is also risky when we can easily loss money if we don't know how to trade in this time.

If you're dealing mainly with bitcoin, i don't think you'll have a good time making day trades with the current trend which is consistently moving upwards. Probably for some alts you can do daily trading, especially with those that are a bit more volatile, but btc i think is more of a wait and see coin now.  It's going to be quite foolish to be selling btc daily when the trend is like this.

I prefer like to hold and buy more bitcoin. This is the time of bitcoin price increasing so I would not miss the chance to gain more than 100% by hold bitcoin. A few months ago bitcoin market was reach its equilibrium so this time for demand of bitcoin influence the market. The adoption is still growing so the bitcoin market equilibrium will not hold for long time. This is the time to buy more bitcoin and hold it.

Yes, this is a good solution. But intraday trading can increase the number of bitcoins. Of course, this option is only suitable for experienced traders who understand the market perfectly and know when to buy and sell.

It is both time and the profits you gain by spending the exact amount of time with HODL. I thick the benefits of holding a bullish market are far more than what you could earn if you are not a HODLER. In fact you would still make money if you day trade in Bitcoin or ETH but that would be a bit not very handsome amount as compared to a 2x or 3x profits.

We still have people that are trading bitcoin daily and irrespective of the sharp increase or sharp decrease they still make the best out of the market, what is needed is just perfect time, provided one can gauge the right time to buy when the market dip and buy when the market increase using available strategy tools, then we should not find It that difficult to trade bitcoin.

Nevertheless, there is no argument that holding bitcoin for a long-term investment is still the most profitable as this one does not require any mistake provided the investor does not buy at the peak and even if bought at peak like people that bought last ATH, there will always be chance to see value above the traded value, just that one has to be extremely patient in that case as it may take a very long time for one to recover his investment.

Are you sure about this, because if you said Holding is the best option for most PROFESSIONAL TRADERS, let us look at the word trader here, most crypto trader will not hold their coin, most crypto trader will take advantage of the volatile market to always take profit within the shortest possible time and that is how they make their money and do turnover too. 

The people you referred to are simply long term investors and they don’t really trade crypto that much, which I am not disputing the fact that it is the easiest way of operating in this market, but you can’t say it is the most profitable; it depends on the coin that is being traded.

Definately, HODL.. Even though many peeps considered outdated.. Hodl bitcoin is always the best choice for the long run. Day trading has been too tension for for me,

It would be unbelievable and quite interesting if it really happens because 1k dollar profit is a huge thing for new comers and in this way they will attain a good position in the crypto market especially in the Bitcoin. Actually we do not know what will be the price movement of Bitcoin onwards so the better option is that we have to hold our coins till we don’t obtain a position where we are not in much profit.

Holding your coins is easier in theory but if you buy at the wrong time then you are going to suffer the consequences, so even if your plan is to be a long term trader you still need to know a thing or two about when to enter the market, while most of the time this is not going to make a huge difference there are moments when it will and this was proven to be correct at the end of 2017 when all of those that bought bitcoin because of FOMO lost a great deal of their investment in just a few days.

holding coins was very difficult to do.we have to controll our mind and emotion while our asset value decrease alot.to be long term investors need strong mental and emotion, price move on high volatility so if we could not controll it i am sure cut loss if be our solution.

But always be careful when you decide to do intraday because there is no guarantee that you will make a profit every day. The market is unpredicted, so we need to analyze deeply than before to find the best time to trade. Sometimes we can find that time with easy, but the other time, we will be difficult to find the best time.

This calls for need why people need to study the market before jumping into it, most people that made that mistake of investing at the peak in 2017 didn’t really watch the market before jumping into it, some even barely knew bitcoin 2 months and because of the hype that was high then, they fell victim of it.

For this period, I think it is still safe to invest at any time now because the market value we have now is still a baby one, and within the next 1 year more, I expect us to pass the last ATH, so if anyone wants to buy this period, they only need to look out for correction prices and buy to hold for the next 1 year.

What you do depends on the market condition, there are times that are not really good for HODL. Just like in 2018, it was the worst ever and everyone who was Hodling then is really going to regret that they ever did such. Reason for this is because the market kept on declining. But as for this year, I think anyone can do the both of them which is day trading and hodl as well since the market has been going up and you will be able to make profit from both strategy. Just hold some in your private while you trade with the others.

That's another thing behind this holding thing that needs to be enlighten, there's always the timing that investors needs to consider, if you have the good skills observing and assessing the market trends then you'll be able to justify your position between intraday or holding your assets, everything will be depends on how you will going to proceed, it's needed to always find a good place whenever you invest from this market.

HODL is not always the best strategy. It could be best strategy in one scenario when your cost of investment is more than the current market scenario. You should not sell low for that would incur you loss. In addition, if you are gaining profits due to low initial cost of investment and the market is rising, you should HODL. However it is never advisable to hodl when you have achieved big and the market looks in bearish mood.

Generally, HODL is much better than any other choices. As can be seen, the reason why hodl is more dominant choice than others is that this seems to be much more secured; especially when you are confused to make a decision in the market movement, still we completely in safety zone if we choose hodl. It depends largely on each person skill, technique as well as knowledege that can help us to exploit profit from each way of earning, because we have different strong point. Personally, i just know that i am compatible  with Hodl, so i tend to prefer hodl to intra-trading.

Any strategy will be a good thing depend on what the situation is, HODL will be a good strategy when it comes to the bullish trend and have you seen what will be the worst thing from HODL when it was getting only bearish trend? a lot of people being depressed to see their amount got decreased anytime. And on that time try to be intraday trader is much better rather than not doing anything and we lost our value.

Just like you said, it all depends on the market condition, do you even know that that same 2018 was also favorable to some people, it was only not favorable for people who bought when the price of BTC hit the ATH, but the same year still favored a lot of people that bought when the price of Bitcoin bottomed that same year and those people now are actually counting their profit instead of losses.

So the point is that we really need to endeavor not to always jump into conclusion without being sure of what we are doing. Most people that fell for fomo then followed trend and not their strategy.

Only professionals find it quite easy to deal with day trade while new comers cannot get through all the system in a limited time. Once we are used to the crypto trading then it will be possible to start day trade and reduce tension. HODLING is a very famous factor which is more suitable with traders or investors who keep their coins for a long time that result in generating massive income or profit.

I agree that entering in the market now is a good choice since the price is still low compared to the ATH, however even the current situation confirms my previous comment, your point of entry is critical even if you consider yourself a long term holder, someone that bought bitcoin just two months ago is enjoying great profits and it is unlikely he will ever face to be down for the foreseeable future while someone buying now is risking losing some money during the short term to try to catch the profits bitcoin will give during the next years.

As practice shows, many professional and successful investors need to combine several strategies, do not be greedy and fix the profit, no matter how promising the niche was not, it will be replaced by others and you need to have time to earn on trends

Intraday is the sure way to be able to swim in this current bearish market. Holding it means forgeting making consistent money from crypto market. With intraday one can make some profit from the daily high and low.

Trading in crypto is too risky than other market like stocks and forex, trading in crypto requires more and more of time and research effort since we can trade anytime it is prone to high change in dump and pump. We might miss some chances if we don't look at the graph or visit our exchanges even in one day.

Intraday rebalancing is a great trading strategy.

There was a recent article published on the topic here:
https://hackernoon.com/an-analysis-of-high-frequency-rebalancing-a-new-strategy-for-crypto-portfolio-management-da95fe7d4fd4

It really depends on what you want to do with the kind of coins you have been holding. You day trade if you are happy with small profits if there is any. But normally day trade in a bullish market does not give back the money you deserve to take and if you try to deviate from the day trade a bit, you end up making some good money hence you should rather HODL.

Despite the fact that I was not new to trading generally because I was once practicing forex prior to when crypto trading became popular, I still did not start trading crypto immediately without first learning the environment and the market first.

What I did was to first be an holder for almost a year and during this period, I was able to know the difference between forex trading and crypto trading, what also controls the market and how the market respond to some factors out there, it was when I got use to all these, that I became bold enough to trade cryptocurrency, and my first trading was superb.

For now, i think i am happy with day trading because the few time i have tried it, i think it really give a very good profit, it just depend on the amount of money one is using to trade.

Daily trading has a good opportunity because we get a good opportunity to reduce the risk of losing. By doing daily trading, we will always be required to monitor price movements every day, this is made into a thing that can help us to be able to make decisions so that we can make profits and avoid the risk of large losses.

Not only stocks, everywhere it is impossible for us to predict them in the market. Some times it is impossible for us to sell them because the price of a coin may increase even higher value and sometimes we might miss the boat like what was happened in 2017. So it is always good to set your goals before purchasing and selling your coins.

I agree but I do not think day trading would be that profitable in such a bullish market as compared to a HODL. If you do the cost and benefits analysis, you would realize that if you day trade, you make some money but if you let the coins stay, the money you make would be far more than what you would make in day trade. I mean why so hurry with trading the asset today if there is great chances of getting your asset make you more money tomorrow than today?

Can you share some ideas on how you are finding day trading to be more profitable? I know that day trading needs a lot of determination and daily work but long term hodl is also good. But I would definitely like to see some sort of a demonstration of the profit that you speak of. That is if you ever read this comment. :D

An upcoming news will push the market. This is a bullish indicator. While a hack or closing down of an ETF will be bearish on the market. These are some things that you can use to predict. Overall just keep both bitcoin and fiat ready whenever you are hodling. Buy or sell as per the market movements.

If you know how to trade, then this is the best occupation in this market. If not, you can use HODL. In fact, it all depends on you and your free time and desire.

Yes day trading needs a lot determination and hard work and the odds of making money in day trading are not so visible by which I mean that you have to work very hard and still not get what you look for. Long term HODL on the other hand has been a good way for people in the crypto space to get their values replicated without working so hard.

Hold is awesome than intraday.
Because Hold can you profit multiple times without getting panic.

Intraday is panic

Depends on what you have and what you need to do with what you have. You should day trade if you have for example Eth and you are happy with the rise though there has been no pretty good rise in ETH lately. Any coin that can give you profit could be cashed if you need the money but if not, HODL till the market is fully bullish would be the best option for you because you would get high value addition.

I think you should not keep and invest long term at this time. You can see that bitcoin prices are constantly fluctuating, but bitcoin prices have rebounded strongly over the past time but are still in a long-term downtrend.

Hold at this time will be very dangerous!

I also find day trading more profitable because its helps me accumulate more coins for further investment. Though it is not every day that the market witnesses green, but those days they do help me sell high and at the same time buy low when it dips back. This is how I have been compounding the profits to invest more in bitcoin and other altcoins I didn’t have the opportunity to invest in due to lack of cash to do so.

If one keeps compounding this way, as you grow with bitcoin for its long term holding, you are also taking profit to keep increasing ones holding. This practice is a little bit risky though for those who doesn’t know how to read chart and also not for those who are leveraging.

Everyone can hold easily but everyone can't do the trade! So, who can trade they always will prefer trading because it is better than just hold and sitting! So, it depends on you. For example, I love to trade and I am a holder too. If you are a trader then you have two options!

Stick to the principle that if I still choose hodl. Because I know that investing in crypto is for the long term. Hodl to btc halving! All market prices will definitely fly high.

Everyone knows how to trade, or at least they all think they do, and that's the problem isn't it? Tempting to see 10% gains in an hour, and imagining the wealth after just a week. In a bull run, very easy to do just pick any shit coin and it starts working. Very addictive too. But then people find out the hard way that it's just luck and when that turns against you?

Then i am on holder side, because i am not really good in trading. And sometime it very stressful for me. That is why i am on holder side but only buy top CMC coin especially Bitcoin and then Ethereum.

When you HODL then benefit comes at the end and then you become millionaire and possibly billionaire provided that you invest with excellent amount in Bitcoin. However, professionals believe in day trade but they will get something only when a good price movement takes place. So the better way to make profit with Bitcoin is to hold it for long life without having any stress and getting worried for it.

There is none of the two that doesn’t create panic, the peace you have concerning your trade and investment depends on the coin you are dealing with. We have some coins that you hold for long and while waiting for them to increase, they keep dumping beyond control and many of these creates panic too in the mind of the holder which makes them join in dumping as quick as possible.

Trading too doesn’t require panic that much, provided one does not go with leverage, normal trade is just like holding too, if price drops, you wait till it increase without losing anything, so I don’t see what is creating panic here too.

if we have no skills in trading maybe holding could be our way.buy coins and hold it for long term no need any skills at all.but as holders we have to understand risk that may occur in the middle way.

same as me. I'm also not very good at trading, so I just hold back, and wait for the right price to sell the assets I have. as long as I trade, maybe only the interest is obtained, therefore, I am more comfortable holding assets longer, moreover the price is currently recovering.

The market has already created opportunity for everyone, and both have their own benefit that sometimes, I imagine which one is more profitable, but the reason why I will prefer long term investment is because I am someone who is a bit hypertensive, and day trading will give me lots of tension that I am not prepared for.

I don’t want to die before I get to enjoy the money, so I would rather hold my coins and just lock my mind that it is a future investment, let’s say 5 years, because if one is not careful with Holding too, you will just be getting yourself worried on a daily basis. So holding is mine till we moon.

Day trade is only possible after dealing with different crypto coins in different market condition; with this much experience after dealing with the market then you would be able to succeed in day trade. Hodling is a factor which is preferred for new comers or users who even don’t know about the market technicalities. By holding the coins for future bullish trend will work out and you will get experience at the same time.

Holding would always been suggested for those traders who do just recently know about trading.It is much more preferable to have this way first rather than risking directly without any proper
knowledge and experience because you would just simply blow out your entire balance in a short time thats why let yourself do learn gradually along the way before switching into day active trades.

trade exactly how your trading plan tells you trade, whether that is how long you hold trades or how often you trade. That simple advice will serve you well once you have a trading plan. Other traders may find constantly buy and selling drives them nuts, and holding each trade for a bit longer and a potentially larger profit is a better option.

holding only suitable for long term investors that have strong mental and psychology.to be holder is not easy for us.sometime when we see cryptocurrency price crash we will be panic.and maybe trying to sell our assets.

Trading plans are just a guide to us and if we stick into it, will help us to derive a better result. Unfortunately, our plans will subject to change accordingly with the market trend. I really don't think that holding plan will work now and even more profitable cause the market will so unpredictable.
Holding it is not necessary anymore if we want to make money from the market, it only wasting a lot of time without a single cents returns to us.

People if can have both option then it is better as they can invest for long term by holding it and also they can trade and make money on daily basis which will help them to make money both ways in short and also in the long term basis.

Day traders are the professional ones because it is hard to understand things quickly and making decisions instantly also needs professionalism. It comes after a lot of practice and efforts to understand each and everything once you are done with it then you will have no worries. Those who are beginners or intermediates in the crypto trade should HODL for a long time as it can result in maximum profit.

what is intraday? HODLing has done me good so far.

This is what all those people do who are not very good at trading their coins and this normally works a lot. This is called speculation when you invest in crypto and HODL you coins till the market price is good enough to give you some good profit. I have been HODLING Bitcoins and I am in surplus right now which is pretty great feeling. It is however important to know about the coin you want to invest in.

The one you're relying on doesn't matter cause anyone can work, as long as you know how to do what you're doing. I think hodl is for those that doesn't know how to do day trading, so the bets thing they can do is hodl and wait till there is increase in the price of coin in market. Before you decide to go for day trading you must have studied it and understood how everything works before you can go for it, because if you just jump on it like that you will be the one to be losing your money everyday. So there is nothing like the best choice,  we all can't be doing the same thing,  everyone does something different, what they believe would work for them and that's it.

  I think the two aspect is liable to work on its individual way. It also have an individual advantages by dealing this kind of aspect and it is about our own statistic to conquer the consequences in order to win and succeed

HODL is a factor of patience and trust in a long-term plan with the source of having a trusted value in the long run. Intraday is very difficult for newcomers or you can say new traders find it difficult to trade in such a way. They should start trading but the HODL factor will help them the most because it will enable them to learn more and to minimize the chances to accept losses, in turn give you profits.

Hodling is the best strategy we can follow and make money with that fund.

When you want to invest on the good coin please handling it for long term so while you choosing itself we need to select such coin as our investment. From yesterday market seems going down so we need to be little more attention while you are in trading or elsewhere.

Yes follow your own gut instinct and never be distracted by the opinions of other people. If you are in the market for making quick money, and you think that day trading could do that for you, you should get in the business and make the money. However it is normally suggested and seen that if you are HODLING your coins for long, the prospect of making some good money increases in the long run.

Intraday is a day trading I think. Those, who ask these questions should not deal with day trading as they do not have experience for it. Holding is the best variant. It will be good to invest in several alts and hold them for 8-12 months.

day trading and hodl are different ways to generate profits and not everyone has the skills to make profits from day trading, so the hodl has the most preferred option and you are free to do what you like as long as you are comfortable with what you choose

Holding provided ways for both unskillful and skillful investors to make money from the cryptocurrencies market and the only thing needed is buying the righ coins at the right price and be patience enough till it shows profits. Day trading is good is you know how it works and you are able to follow the rules of the games.

There is a difference in opinions and that is a good thing. Some people like to trade every day watching the market every second. They even set up bots to notify them about market movements and they are literally sitting in front of their computer all day since waking up. This in my opinion is stressful and unhealthy and not sustainable for those who have a job.

Holding on other hand is buying low and selling high after a long term. It is better who like to buy at the dip and then hold through crypto winters and sell when spring blossoms. You get a good profit and you buy back at the next dip. This is feasible for those who have a life outside their computers.

Instead of focusing on only intraday/HOLD, it is better to participate in both the logic because it will help you if the prices crash suddenly. Most of the people will make a huge amount of money people who are holding it in the long term. Managing your asset is a big deal in cryptocurrency which will help to make plenty of money if you follow both procedure.

I holding with more than 1 years, for me its that really long due i don't have a lot of money for my financial. To be honest, its all depend of your economy, if you don't have a good economy "Intraday" would be a good option but if you can spread your money using money management holding was always the best option. If you are really good trader, you can hold with trading to just make your amount crypto more grown.

I would say: 'A mixture of both interday (medium term) and HODL' should be a good trading strategy.

Example: During the recent rally, a HODLER (meaning: "a long term holder of bitcoin"  //for newbies) should ideally have sold around $9000 and then bought back around $7500.

However, it depends on how good you are at finding medium-term tops and bottoms in the chart.

Always choose the most good exchanger that you can see on coinmarketcap with high volume of coins for sure people always trade on that exchanger but i referred to you use binance.

The classic scenario will happen and the same trader will get caught on the fake breakout. It takes time to master the breakout trading in crypto markets, HODLER doesn't need to follow market footsteps. Medium-term investing worth both time and money compared to play with the short time frame charts.

If you are knowledgeable and skillful in trading then intraday is the best one that will suit you but if you don't know how/when to trade because you doubt the market then it is better for you to HODL. Each of us has our own choices to make, depending on what we see is convenient for us. Since this crypto market is open and manipulation is always in the present no matter what market we are in. It is important to accomplish your target after all.

It's a day trading and hodl gives you a good return when we are at the bullish trend but the different thing when it was a bearish trend. Hodl is the worst thing i ever experienced with.
I lost more than 500k caused by hodl my amount.

this time only bitcoin was performing better and the rest still stagnant. I do day trade to get profit to able to recover my lost.

For now, I prefer "Hodling" assets that I get from work as a bounty hunter. Because I believe, the project I am working on is the value of its assets will definitely increase. And in my opinion, cryptocurrency in the market is still gray, except stable coin. We don't know what will happen in the future, whether up or down.

Everything will be depends on your set goals, if you can proceed and meet your expected targets in a short period of time, you can deal with intraday trading and use your knowledge following the pattern and strategy to use, you must hold if you are not good in reading the charts and your knowledge
is limited with anticipating the next movement.

Both of them... just use mpcx AI and you won't need to worry for anything else besides programming the trading bot

Nice of you to suggest one of most controversial exchanges out there. We talk about decentralzation right? But here we are making the things centralized ourselves.

We should stop using exchanges like that those who ask of KYC and those having their own tokens like Binance which is fed by trading fees reduction incentive. These are ponzi schemes ready to dump on your head from the big price when the owners of the token decide to cash out. Binance asks for huge fees for listing as well. They are nothing but robbers in the crypto space.

I think the two strategies are just as good, because daily trading will increase profits cumulatively, while HODL is a more relaxed long-term strategy because it only waits for prices to rise as expected.
Both strategies can be applied by different people, especially daily trading strategies by people who are experts and can predict exactly when prices rise. Besides that it must be patient and not emotional. While the HODL strategy is mostly applied by beginners or people who are crypto investments only as part time because they have a main job.

there are more other controvesial exchanges out there aside from binance . what happened to binance is only an accident but they sort the issue so cased closed for them  . binance is still considered as one of the best trading platform  . binance does not also necesarily ask for a kyc but they only ask kyc for big time account traders that trades with a bigger volume  . binance is centralized but i heard that they released a dex version   .

I think the pessimist discussion around the Binance Hack topic and the not investing approach of some people over the Binance exchange will not bear them any fruits. It is the market that determine your gains and Binance has gotten very huge traffic on the platform for trading and for transactions. So it is far better to invest and not miss out the important opportunity of making money in crypto.

Does not matter. We, being a part of the crypto ecosystem should boycott the use of such centralized exchanges. That is the only way that we can get clear of their bottlenecking methods.

They can call it whatever they want only fanobois will still accept their BS propaganda. Why would they ask for KYC anyway? Its not that whales are scared of it? You are at risk of identity theft if you give them your data. However it may not matter to you at this stage.

You "heard" about a dex? Can you provide any proof of that? Hearing things is not a good sign my friend. ;D

I recently have a lot of doubts about the exchange binance.  I was alarmed by the information that came out with the administration of the trading exchanges that they have access to Kursin funds and user data and can act on them at their discretion, despite the announcement of decentralization.  This is generally utter nonsense.  I'm just in shock.

It would really depend on where you at right now. If you are holding BTC or any crypto in this matter where you have bought it during the bear market the best thing you can do is to sit back and relax compared to monitoring it all through out daily on taking advantage the prices. But if you are just getting in the market then you don't really have any choice but to take advantage of the price movement and buy and sell at that point.

Keep on trusting centralized exchanges and you will see more such "incidents" happen. We humans dont learn from our mistakes - we have learnt about decentralization but have failed to understand what it truely means.

Of course a proper dex is something of dream but close it is also possible. Again people keep using centralized exchanges because of the lack of dex which are available and they always have apprehension of their funds. These things I hope would change in future and people can fearlessly exchange their coins.

For now the best thing would be to use the exchange that you know and trust keeping an eye out for any changes there.

That is a far better answer to the person who is not comfortable with the decentralised exchanges. That's why we should always learn some basic knowledge about the decentralisation and how blockchain influenced many companies with this decentralised but still, people are commenting on it negatively. So we should always try to understand the technology.

It depends on your capacity. If you are a well-researched day trader, sharp with charting analysis, and so on, I bet you will earn more profit than a HODLer. But if you have the trading skills level like most of us here, average, and even a little more than a guess, I better recommend you swing trade or plainly HODL. I prefer to just HODL right now. The movements are quick and sudden and characterized with relatively high spikes. It is highly risky for me.
