Long term vs. Short term

[spacelab]

If you make long term investment you shouldnt check the prices so often otherwise you will be upset and stressed so many times till you sell them. And if you make short term you should check every single minute not to miss something.

You should study first the project roadmap, some project will really pump, if the roadmap is excellent as well the team is willing to stick on their words or they can be guaranteed it the product, I believe many coins from last year ICO will succeed soon when the project is fully done. It's a good way to indicate if the project can make it long term.

It's really important to know how the team treat with community. If they don't update the code on the github or trying to hide technical part of the project you have to suspect them.

In addition, Investors usually fall into one of two categories; there are those who invest for short term gains and others who invest for the long term. Both strategies have benefits and drawbacks.
Short term investing generally refers to holding any particular investment for less than one year. While Long term investors on the other hand will often hold an investment for five, ten or even twenty to thirty years at a time. Now,The goal of any investor is to grow your invested capital: to make money. This is what investors do and it is accomplished simply by buying low and selling high. If it only it was that simple! Investors who trade on shorter time-lines aim to buy Bitcoin when the market is low or if  Bitcoin has been beat up and represents a good value. They then try to sell the investment in a few days, weeks or months when it has recovered and can show a profit.

It's interesting. I thought that a year is already a long term. So I'm still a supporter of short storage. I sold some coins after a month of owning them

How are you handling your portfolio? How much are risking in % of your portfolio in short term gain vs. Long term gain?

It depends on your altcoins you're holding.
As I am holding more than a dozen of coins, not all of them are for long-term and for short-term so some of the altcoins are for long-term and some are for short-term.
That's why soon I am going to sell off some of my Altcoins that aren't increasing and some of my Altcoins are pumping almost every week so therefore I am going to hold them for my future projects.
Long term investments is good to get higher investment returns and always be.

I prefer long term because the longer you hold your funds in a long period period of time the more the profits.

If you have money you won't need for 10 years or more, the stock market can be a great place to put it. Of course, if you need it tomorrow, the stock market is probably way too risky.

If you start investing for retirement early, then you can let your investments run for decades. That's a situation where stocks are a good investing strategy.

You can use stocks for most of your portfolio, and history shows stocks offer an attractive return.

Of course, we can't take history for granted, so we recommend you diversify with bonds and real estate to manage risk over any period.

Don't forget to think long term, even if it seems like retirement is a long ways away.

I'm not so much risking % of my portfolio for now, and I'm not trading much this past few days. But I always prefer long-term because a much higher income can be earn by that way. But if I trade again (short term), I will only risk 25% of my portfolio.

of course i choose long term like everyone else because we already know that long term much better because we can earn bigger profit than the short term

[Disconnecting]

we can still make big profit on short term trading but it still depends on the wave of the market. if you ride with the waves, the better.
but for me, i will still choose for long term, because aside from big profit as you said, it is less riskier compared to short term.

[Dolarin]

I keep most of my coins for a long time and I only sell the one that can bring me more than 400% profit or if I urgently need money.

[xsaints128]

I usually go long term in all of my crypto. I had a lot of experience in short term trading where I made a small amount of profit as compared to the profit which I would have got if I held onto those coins instead of just selling them for short term profit.

[Blas]

Most of my holdings are long time investments. I am doing some trading as well, but I am very careful with it, because of lack of experience.

[petorosconk]

my portfolio tells me that the risk of short-term investments is more risky than a long-term investment, because I do not choose coins that have the potential to make short-term investments, I only look for altcoins whose value moves quickly then I buy when low value and sell it when I get a profit though a little

Short term usually gets a lot of profit in%, but I have never dared to invest big on short term
then long term only for trusted coins
although only get a few%, but longterm more reliable

Now the whole portfolio for a long term. 40% in bitcoin and 60 in altcoins. Although until recently there were 25 in Bitcoin and 75 in Altcoins, but Bitcoin simply insecurity destroys my altcoins. Therefore, now it's probably best to trade for a short time and only btc/usd

The long term investments is certainly the best way.
Although always take profits occasionally when the market is doing well so you don't panic sell when the market is fluctuating.

Hello and good evening wherever you are from it i personally prefer to use the both of strategies because both can beneficial if you planned for it well

Both will work if you employ with different strategy, long term is more risky but more rewarding especially when there is a real pump that
would take us to the moon, like everyone is expecting when they are investing.
Actually IMO 10 years of holding is a great long term measurement and we can certainly see a big project once the coin we are holding will succeed.

[semutracing]

Long term hold  is 80% of my portfolio the remaining 20% I usually swing trade so that I can buy more of my long term coins. I would also like to add that holding is good but holding and accumulating more at dips is better. Just make sure you hold a solid long term coin. ☺️

I will do two things, in my short-term portfolio I bought some altcoins and sold them again in a very short span of time but in the long-term portfolio I bought most of altcoin and waited to benefit from them. So if we experience losses are not too great value.
