The HODL strategy is not actual

[cryptoalfs76]

This morning I saw an article where a guy made a simple calculation through Google trends about HODL strategy, and it showed that call to HODL used less and less from February of 2018. Popularity of word Bitcoin and crypto currency is also falling down.

Why it is so? Do not people believe in Bitcoin and it's bright future anymore?
No matter on such tend I am going to HODL my founds till bitcoin will not come back to 20k$

Definetly he have a point into his statement that the HODL strategy used less and less from this year and the popularity of bitcoin and cryptocurrency is falling down,because of some situation different struggle face in the worlds of digital currency,but in my own opinion i still believe that cryptocurrency market,will recover in the perfect time and im still believe in Hodl method,thats its will help a lot to earn someday a big profits and bitcoin will comeback to its target price the 20K.

Well the data isnt completely reflective of the popularity of the practice. When we see a significant change, im sure comments would spike once again. I think it's mostly because people are getting sick of "btc news" and there arent much people writing about it now.

Checking 'HODL' word through GT doesn't represent current situation of HODL strategy and crypto currency world at all.
I'd recommend to check the sales volume of hardware wallets 
Just check the Amazon best selling goods.

HODLing is never a foolproof strategy specially in a market as uncertain as cryptocurrencies.

You might have seen many people becoming paper rich or boasting of there cryoto wealth. Trust me all is fool's gold. Clear something in your mind that no asset in this world will make you rich just by HODL. you need to understand the market and encash on the opportunity of selling and buying at the right moment. If you have gained more then your present capacity ( that is what you earn on an average in a month or quarter), ENCASH IT! SPEND AND ENJOY IT!

Money earned in such markets is always easy come & go. So, don't stick to quadruple it or HODL for life. Rather enjoy the profits. Invest it on yourself.

I do not think that . For a person who does not have much experience in the market, long-term investment is a good choice for them. In times when I did not have much time to invest, I chose long-term investment and it also gave me a little profit.

[Chrisjay29]

I think its depend on you. Because not all dont have profit thats why they force to sell there coins/token. Other are weakhand scared to lose profit

hold for potential altcoin and can thrive in the future. If you choose a non-potential altcoin, you will probably lose all your money

I do not like hold. I only like short term investment and especially investment in the day. It made me spend a lot of time and earn very little money. Invest in the day to make a profit every day

Maybe because people know about Bitcoin and don't use Google Search any more to understand it (always optimistic).
Maybe people lost interest in cryptocurrency because of the price fall.
The question is: will this disinterst and indifference remain for long or we will see investors pumping their money in the market!!

I do not agree with you . Previously I was a frequent trader during the day. But if you make a mistake when analyzing the graph. You will lose money in a day. I think a short term investment of one or two months is the best way

People are just waiting and hodl word in the internet is not the most used because people are trying to endure the red market. also the value of bitcoin for sure there are people who are trying to recover the price.. help the value to increase so that they can hold the word HODL again.

[tukang_rosok]

if we know about the dow theory ,we could think more time to hodl our asset.it said that buying and selling following market trend could make our money / asset growth faster than just hodl.

It's not about the price. Just when the same bitcoin was growing in price all news sites wrote about it - "yesterday bitcoin was 10,000, today is 13,000, etc."
There was a news background. If today bitkoin will grow at least 50% or lose as much in price, the number of people talking about this will increase. People need a reason for interest and conversation.

Come on, everyone can say that it is good or bad to hodl but imagine that whole project which has that bit market cap will just go down after some years, for me it is just impossible.

If you think about it, the HODL strategy has influenced our decision making drastically in crypto. Through highs and lows, we still do the HODL strategy. For example, last December when bitcoin's price reached its ATH, a lot of us who still not needed extra cash at that moment, HODL their bitcoin thinking that it will still go higher. At the end, when bitcoin's price suddenly fell, we regret not selling our fair share of bitcoin so that we could've earned a decent amount. Most probably now, those people are still holding again and waiting for bitcoin to rise again.

traders have to learn at some point. I no longer hold blindly and follow strict stop loss rules to preserve my capital no matter how much people hype others into hodling.

Well, it's very hard to say that btc is now losing its popularity but according to what's happenning right now, we are now having a bearish market. This only means that people continue to dump their coins (maybe because they want to cut their losses) and in return,  only few buy again making the price more stable than before. This is a bad sign but I think this is not a valid reason to say that btc is now getting out of the trend.

Going to your second concern, still up to you if you will remain hodling or not. If you now can't afford to lose any further then much better to cut your loss as soon as possible before you regeret.

Well, with all the things that has been happening recently to the prices of the market on this bearish season, I think that scenarios like this are pretty natural to happen. In fact, I am not even a bit shocked. This is more common with weak handed people and newbies. But for most of the veterans or newbies that have studied a lot about this industry, they will be keeping silent accumulate and HODL as much and as long as they can on moments like this. Some even take advantage of the small up trends and dips by buying and selling. So I think you shouldn't be bothered. This long bearish market is a good foundation for the next jump since it is shaking off the weak handed crypto guys in this industry.

This is why I'm surprised that there aren't more people who are playing the market and trying to make more money off of the normal market movements. Sure HODLing is good for short periods of time where there is a bull run, but in a case like the current scenario if you had sold a long time ago and then targetted lower market prices you'd be walking away with a larger quantity of Bitcoin, but not necessarily a larger share of fiat value.

It's made me a fair amount anyways.

There is a wide speculation that appears if an existing market condition was discussed. If lucky then they sell to avoid big losses, it's not a choice is wrong but is too hasty. There is also a feeling of panic with the assumption that the coin will increasingly fall into this year and last.
