It is necessary to remember that if you started to hold cryptocurrency 6 years ago, now you would be a millionaire and a whale of cryptomarket. After all, it is the holding that has brought the greatest profits to many people.

The choice of hodl or to trade depends on many factors. If the project very good in the long term and you trust in it, then hodl is an excellent option. But if the project didn't become interesting to you and you don't see in it prospects that needs to be sold coins. Also a lot of things depend on a situation in the market, everything is the best of all to keep in BTC now, it is steadier.

It all depends on you and your destination when joining Crypto. Each person joining dicrypto is to get profit. Withstanding short or long term, the goal is to be able to sell at a high price and make a profit. Likewise with trading.

Whether it is hodl or trading, the purpose is to make money. So it all depends on your own judgment, you can't say which method is better. If you can use both methods flexibly, then I think it is the best.

It depends on your decision. If you like long-term holding, then I don't recommend you to trade during the day, because the risk of day trading is huge. I think long-term holding is to minimize the risk.

So many people mention that holding coins is more profitable than trading.  If you trade, then its possible for you to make consistent income if you buy it low and sell at high.  But if you hold, then you don't make any money until you sell which could be a very long time.


The thing is aren't there coins that are more profitable to trade than hold and vice versa?  For example, i believe bitcoin is a coin to hold and not trade.  Because in the long run, if it keeps going up, you will profit.  If you keep buying when it dips then sell when it goes up, you make money but it seems a bit more work than holding it.  Do people agree or disagree?  The thing is people predict it will only go up.  So if it only go up, wouldn't that mean holding makes the most sense?  Now let say you buy it at a dip and then sell it when it goes back to the price after the dip.  Yes you make money but probably not that much because you need a lot of money to trade bitcoin if you want to make decent money.


But with altcoins... isn't buying it at dips and selling when it goes back probably a very good idea?  For example let say there is a coin that is 5 dollars or so.  You dont see this coin going up high in the future where it could go up like BTC or ETH.  You think the coin will stay around this price but maybe go max 15 dollars and just doesn't see it going 50 or more etc.  If thats the case, wouldn't these type of coins be the perfect coins to trade assuming these coin prices keep going between say 3 dollars and 12 dollars?  Because many times you notice many altcoins would go to 3 dollars then go back up to 6 dollars.  If you keep repeating it, wouldn't that be profitable as long as you don't sell for a loss?  The thing is what about altcoins that you think in the future could go up like ETH prices.  If thats the case, wouldn't those coins be great coins to hold?  Now if you buy these coins at dips and then sell them when it goes back up, yes you make money.  However imagine you bought 1000 coins of a coin at 3 dollars when it dip.  Then it goes back to 5.50.  Then you make a 2500 dollars or so etc.  Now let say it dips and goes back up many times and every time you do this you make 2k or so.  Thats great right?  However my thinking is if you think this coin could go up to 50 or 100 dollars, wouldn't trading it be bad idea because you could have bought 1000 shares and sold it many times where if you kept all those shares you make more money and less work etc?   


However i feel like trading could make you consistent money.  Holding... you dont make money until you sell for a profit.  Do people agree/disagree with this?  I believe the coins that you should hold for profit would be BTC and maybe ETH.  However, wouldn't majority of altcoins probably be best for trading if u dont see that coin ever hitting that high of a price.  Like the coin would hit max 10 dollars.  But most of the time be between 2-7 dollars etc?  Thus buy these coins when there is a huge dip...... then hold until it goes back up to possibly close to double the price or even 50 percent of the price and then sell for profit?  Because if u dont sell when price falls after you buy, you dont lose money.


However to those people that trade altcoins especially when buying it in dips, how long typically do you hold these coins to before selling it and locking in a profit?  Like if a coin drops from 3 dollars to 2 dollars in a huge dip.  If you buy it at 2 dollars, if it goes to 2.50 in a few days, do you just sell it?  Do you just sell it if it goes to 2.50 in the same day and cash in the profit?  Im curious how many trades a trade does a month on average to make any decent money.  If i had to take a guess, someone probably would need to buy at least 2-3 altcoins and buy a lot of shares like 1000+ minimum each time to lock in a profit when it price goes up right?  Of course you could buy a coin and it drops down and it takes weeks or even longer to go back up.  So how long do you traders hold before you sell it since you are daytrading? 


It seems simple to buy coins at huge dips and then sell them when prices go back.  So wouldn't it make sense certain coins are great for trading.  But certain coins are horrible for trading?  I don't really think there are many great coins to hold besides btc and ETH etc.  Does anyone here agree/disagree with this?  It seems like those altcoins that cost 25 dollars and less seem to be great options to buy during huge dips... then sell it once prices go back up but issue is you dont know how long it would take.  However, when was the last time a top 50 coin fell all the way down to almost nothing.  Does anyone know?  It seems like any coin in the top 25 that isn't btc or eth would be great to buy during dips right?  And it seems like during dips, doesn't it seem you could buy any altcoin in the top 25 since when btc goes up, all other altcoins seem to follow?  And when btc goes down, all altcoins seem to follow?  My thinking is during dips, it doesn't seem to really matter that much which altcoin you buy because when btc goes up, almost every altcoin does the same etc.


Does anyone here say certain coins are great to daytrade since they keep going from one price range to another price range but never gets higher than that?  Like if a coin drops to 2 dollars, then it almost always seem to go back to 3 dollars.  Thoughts on this? 

Very difficult to comment accurately on this. Obviously you do not realise profit until you sell. Timing is everything. You need an incentive to HODL your coins. Believing in the coin and the future of the crypto world in general is a great reason, but some coins are just destined to fail. The market is quite saturated with various coins with no long term prospect. As with any investment, you need to go into it knowing what you want out of it. BTC is a great long term investment because it is the standard, will always be there and is the most well known. Smaller coins are better for short term gains.

I think that right now, the best thing to do is to hodl your coins. I feel like it is a bit risky to be doing some tradings now because of how unstable the market is at this point. Anyways, if you are  looking towards doing some tradings, I think that you should go for coins that their volatility rates are not so high, and one whose market condition you have thoroughly studied in the past weeks. This will give a better insight into trading the coin.

So far, we need to see coins that have USDT pair than BTC or ETH pair. I ever join to one token that have only USDT pair and yes it give a stable price than others. So it doesnt make pump or dump price and no manipulaton.

It is possible to dream as much as necessary. If all of us knew that there will be a high price, then would buy tokens right now. But because nobody knows future price and huge money on cryptocurrency is earned.

yes, no one will know, of course, crypto prices will increase the price to how high, and for a while or a long time, it could be an increase or decrease in crypto prices, to choose a coin that is good for us to save for a long time, I prefer bitcoin .

I think to distinguish them both trading will make use of your skills and knowledge for you to be able to earn in an hourly or daily basis and in Holding you will be using your patience, time and trust for a year or 2 or even more for worth waiting profits.

Keeping in the long term has never been more profitable than trading, especially if you are engaged in daily trading, but if we talk about security, then investing in the long term is more secure.

Alright. Main question: Is it better to hold or to trade?

This completely depends on YOU. Are you a good trader? Can you make consistent decent profit from trading? Are your predictions accurate? Do you like high risk, high reward due to bitcoin and cryptocurrencies' in general's volatility? Then go with day trading!

Do you like to play the long game? Do you like to invest in something but with lower risk? Do you like to relax or do something else and not stare at charts 24/7? Then go with holding! It's just simple as that.


I agree  with you depends on the capability of people, holding and trading are the choices both are profitable and best ways to earn profits, the most important here is skills and patience are key of success.

For me if you have enough capital for trading then why not trade? In our current situation now hodl is too risky. We are now crypto educated and I'm sure we can distinguished which token will have a potential in the future. Never compare the crypto before and now. Learn basic trading fundamental and if you have enough capital for investment don't be afraid to trade but always trade wisely. Those people who HODL is afraid of losing money but they don't know that they already lose it.

A good coin to trade is Bitcoin and that's why I always HODL Bitcoin on the Exchange wallet.
The long-term HODL is Ethereum, and I have purchased Ethereum at a price of 180 USD.

If an expert in trade then this could be producing. but when merely want to trade just so it is not recommended to it because in trade needs to be many aspects that must be considered in order that it can at least have a constant income every time. the investment will be more secure to do even though it takes a long time.
