Day trading is very extremely definitely not for me. Most people wind up ruined very rapidly. My time span is years. I'm waiting until 2020 before making any significant moves. I still think that's when things will start to fulfil the potential they're promising.
Same here. I don't know how some people seems to do it but its really working for them. I tried the day trading things and I ended up lossing some of my funds, then I had to back out. The coins I wasted can't be recovered but I definitely learnt my lesson, which is not to day trade again. Now, I am fully holding coins and brought out some coins for investing in any ICO which I have fully researched and worth it.
It's different to anyone and your lucky to find what is the most effective strategy for you. In my case, my time span in buy/sell is interminnent since I buy randomly, basing it on market's action. If I feel that the price is about or near it's pumping period, I buy. I also buy when prices suddenly changes from a high one to a relatively low one(dump). I sell when I feel a dump will occur or whenever there are serious bad news about btc. Somehow this is the best strategy for me but I suffer losses sometimes.
