Is HODLINg still valid to make profits

[CryptoDouche]

It's only valid if you plans to hold for a LONG time and are also invested in something that will actually still be around years from now. I went all in on AMB and I got the best of both worlds since it's a utility token with real use case and main net coming up soon but also has master nodes so I can get payouts while hodling to maximize my profits. Here's a few reasons why I like AMB:


-currently only $.26
-you can get a master node for around $3k usd which is an insane deal considering the expected ROI for node operators
-rumored partnerships with Migros (30 billion), GSK (40 billion) and others means there will be mass adoption of AMB-NET platform
-rockstar team with deep connections in Swiss government and corporations
-full fledged IOT platform with their own hardware and proprietary sensors
-main net in July
-only $40mm market cap
-coin burn for each ownership challenge transaction

I am hodling for the last 6 months and I lost 60% of crypto portfolio.
So answer is very simple. NO.

It's up to you for holding until when. Example you buy ETH at 500$, and then it pumps to 800$, but you decide to hold longer to sell at 1000$ milestone. Unfornaturnely, it goes down again and back to 500$ and you have no choice to hold it again and again. Then you should remind yourself: "I shall sell it when 800$". In the other hand, in case you decide to sell at 800$ milestone, it continuely goes up to 1000$ and of course you will feel regretful.
I think in current market status, you can buy some coins when they go down and try to sell them to gain acceptable profits. Don' try to hold for extremely high price, and if their price continuely to go down, just hold to die and wait for their restore.

If you HODLing, you need to have A LOT of patience. If you are a long-term investor, then you don't need to worry about daily fluctuations, no tension.

Yes. holding is still profitable but when u are still you have to be familiar with the market because for now the market is not stable. But if the seller is not in an hurry I am very sure holding is still profitable.

I will say the holding it profitable but the altcoin you have choosen should be the good coin and should be potential coin in the market for getting the huge returns. Most of the cheap altcoins used to dump in the market. So you have check the correct which will increase in future that is what everyone expect while they want to hold the crypto currency

Personally, I've always wondered, what constantly compare with HODL.  For a good trader, a market fall almost always means making a profit, since the trader earns the main money with large swings. And while you HODL the coin, he will trade and in a year it will have 1.5-2 times more of this coin than you.

[Raiwenkai]

Yes holding will give you alot of money, just wait and be patient because you'll never know the token youre holding will pump 10x or as much.

[singpolyma]

If you keep coins for at least a year or two, you can earn good interest. However, the market is very unstable now so be careful with investments..

[Adedbum]

Yes. Holdings is the only way to make profit in this market era that we are. It is a total lost if we market our coin now.

This recipee could be a thing of the past. Nowdays it may be better to look for opportunities as lots of talent is going into the market. Do you still think of becoming a millionaire by hodling?

Holding your coins will be depending on the situation of the market, as of now the market price are decreasing so you should hold your coins in order to avoid losing a huge amount of investments in order to earn more profit in the future.

[ehiozuwa]

Doesn't seem like it in a bear market that has lasted this long. It is better to short and gather more coins

[heartthew]

Honestly, I do not believe in HODL, because all my investments now costs  no more than 40 percent of the original amount and there are no prospects for something to change ..

[BurakXel]

Anything can happen in the crypto market which is impossible for us to guess the current situation of the market. Most of the people think very positively about the situation of the market but nobody doesn't know when the prices will start increasing.

I prefer a good mix between holding promising coins for the long term and fast flipping coins for quick short term gains.

[SmartHorek]

nowadays i guess that's the only way to make profit, especially for those who bought some coin month or couple ago. but sometimes coins rise suddenly, but then fall slowly again, so not bad to catch moment as this

Hodling is still one of the basic yet effective to make profit. We need to know first that the basic of investing to tokens is "buy low, sell high".

[jacmaniac]

You can hold open code for short-term profit now

[xPotato_02]

Year over year returns prove that HODLing is an effective way to make profit, you just have to be patient enough and not get affected by bear market.
