Long term vs. Short term

[lusiaga]

it seems for the current market conditions that it is good to trade short terms because the volatile conditions are very high in the last few days. It is very profitable to trade just a short term.

[ramanmart1]

bitcoin and ethereum is good for long-terms because of their popularity they are one of the most possible coins to go up and down. most part of other altcoins is for short-term.

[zahar96]

Very tight controls. In the short term, about 3% and in the long term not more than 7 %. I'm a risk-minimiser.

Sharing this point of view, I would like to add this thing as well - it is also cool to hold some of other the other altcoins. Pick, for example, Ontology, OmiseGO, and TRON.

Long-term investments are certainly justified, but from my point of view profit-taking will be profit-taking by periods, a vivid example of 2017, those who did not leave the market and did not fix the income remained again waiting, while missing the chance to multiply the amount of the initial asset

[Zufox]

100% of my capital is a long-term investment. and now I regret it very much! now I just have to watch my balance melt.
I will choose a short-term strategy for the future.

[fare2100]

There is every risk, but we can say there are fewer pictures in the short vault.

In my opinion, we can divide funds into two parts, some of which are long-term investments, and short-term investments. But still, the majority of portfolios must be in Bitcoin, we will be crazy not to take profits but become a solid portfolio. This includes coins that we see as long-term and short-term.

Correct. This is also what I am doing. What I missed is over-holding some of my alts that are supposed to be sold already earlier. I just didn't expect a longer bear period.

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

At the moment i think the short-term and long-term strategy with the coin and the top choices people think of on coinmarketcap and Bitcoin with ETH are the two names that are mentioned a lot. And Bitcoin and ETH will be chosen for short-term and long-term goals i think.

[Hartmas]

All these methods are good in their own way, and both can help, and the help will be very effective if everything goes well and will pass exactly as you have planned for the future.

[iqlynaz]

its still depends the coin and where,
if you buying unlisted coin, or it still traded on not official exchange then you can hold for mid or long
but if the coin already popular and added anywhere you might just catch dip and sell for 10% or 25% profit

[Cangkeman Wae]

With the market conditions being red like now I think short-term investment is better and profitable, many predictions say that it takes at least 3 years to be able to make the price of bitcoin through the highest position ever reached, that is $ 19200, so I prefer short-term investment (trading) .

Great this is the way I usually use. I bought the altcoin in the top 100 and kept them and sold when I gained 10-15% profit. And I bought some tokens after the ICO ended and waited for them to be listed at the exchange. But this is quite risky because the tokens may fall after being listed and in 2018 most of the tokens I purchase fall 2-5 times after listing at the exchange.

Between bitcoin and ethereum it seems good to invest both short and long term,
but if you look at crypto conditions right now we better invest long term and that seems a safer way

[Baggong]

For me investing in a long term is a better and safer thing, it makes me relax with the current price rise and fall, I am optimistic that the future of crypto will continue to improve and so get a heyday.

Long-term investment will indeed make you a person who has a big profit, if the coin is well developed, but if the coin becomes shitcoin because you have been holding it for too long, then you will have a huge risk of loss

[Gudhal Untu]

I prefer long term, it must be admitted that in investment it always takes a long time to be able to get big profits, as we know that the price of bitcoin can reach $ 6500 after almost 10 years, and I'm sure that in 5 years the price of bitcoin can reach at least $ 100 k.

[gilangIDR]

Each strategy must have weaknesses and strengths. What we have to do is how to utilize every available momentum. Make the best decision and we will automatically get the best results too. Trading requires knowledge and experience, that's why we have to improve it all the time.

Of course between the long-term and short-term investments there is a risk,
but I prefer long-term investment because in my opinion the risk is not too large compared to short-term investments
