The HODL strategy is not actual

[BilHim]

You should not ignore that bitcoin is searched less but other coins like ETH are gaining more searches. So crypto is still in demand and I think it will only grow in future.

the right strategy to make the price up is to hold and buy, hold us as a solid fort that we have and buy is the ammunition we use to make the price move up, but if you do not have enough ammunition you can keep your fort remains firm despite being hit by a panic selling wave

[V. J. Meyer]

The strategy holds only in times of market turmoil, as today, the market is constantly falling, so the hold is necessary. We sell coin now would be a bad time.

The market is recovering but it has not yet determined the next trend so you can trade short term at this moment and quickly get a profit instead of keeping it for too long. Once the market has identified a clear trend, you can keep your money in the long run.

The strategy of long-term retention is relevant only for young coins, which are constantly growing in price. Therefore not in all cases it is now profitable. The best in terms of making a profit is the periodic sale of a part of the coins, when it sharply rises in price and its purchase, when the coin or the entire market falls in price.
Only the retention of coins due to its cyclical prices can bring already very small profits.

People still believe greatly in Bitcoin. But not all times do people actually tend to hold. Sometimes, they may need to trade off due to some personal reasons.

It isn't so much that individuals not trust it any longer, but rather they sort of holding up the correct minute to contribute once more, the greater part of the financial specialists that put resources into the pinnacle are the learner speculators that need to utilized the positively trending business sector to make benefit, so once it entered the bear advertise those individuals will lose premium, they simply need to make a transient exchanging, while the professional merchants as yet sneaking around the market searching for opportunities to make benefit and they don't lose enthusiasm by any stretch of the imagination, you can see the exchanges volume of crypto still high

this is done to avoid losses, but it also requires proper analysis and planning. you must know when you should stop holding and have to sell. it is very difficult indeed.

[IfixTchenTchen]

It is an interesting data, but it has to be contextualized. There are simply less people investing in Bitcoin during this bear market, new people don't join the party when the party seems over, thus the lack of searching on Google.

 "hodl"ing is still better than selling and buying to make a virtual demand whereas you are trying to make money off fiat exchange rate.
Bitcoin is suppose to be a currency itself instead you guys are trying to figure out what strategy is the best when it comes down to holding or selling. I rather use it like earn my bitcoins doing some work and than spend that bitcoin that I earned for something I want. Just like how you use dollars or euroes, I use bitcoin. Most recently I paid my trip from expedia with bitcoin.

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$

I am also personally thinking to integrate my money from the hold principles to trade because as I can see holding is not getting me more money that I can get from trading. It is much more profitable to trade.

Today's hold strategy can not create as high a profit as it did in the past. The current Crypto market is volatile as no one can predict their price. So rely on the experience you have to invest in Crypto, so you will succeed.

[BitRentXx]

all back to the individual, about holding back or not it's our own choice.
create our own trading strategy, do not imitate others.

Not in all cases it is now profitable.
The best way to make a profit is to periodically sell part of the currency, as it increases in price and buys it, when the coin or the whole market falls into the price.
Once the market has determined a clear trend, you can keep your money in the long run.
So make your decision wisely. Do not follow these fools to fail.

Exactly, you can see that bitcoin prices are constantly adjusting over time and are showing up trend in the short term. But altcoin prices are steadily declining and currently there is no sign of recovery.

In terms of long term, the market is still bearish in the long term so I believe that this time you should not hold.

[bilyboy]

The hodl strategy is being used rarely nowadays due to the continuous dump of bitcoin and other coins price. Time will really come where holding is not a thing anymore and that is inevitable so we should be smarter with our investments now. Holding is a way of keeping your money while waiting for the price to rice but that is not necessary anymore.

Why people do not believe in hodl these days is due to the fall they see from December last year to the start of this year is huge. What they did not see is it is actually still bug profit if people hodl from the previous years. I still believe hodl strategy to work even until now and in the future.

Hold strategy is not real in this panic market conditions many lost money because of holding in uncertain times we should keep selling whenever market is in profit mode

not actual, does not mean not profitable anymore, you can try to hold it for a few months of course you will still get a profit right? not actual I think it is not always the decision in the trade ends with restraint, because sometimes sell is better, if after that the price decreases

For me holding is still profitable but with close monitoring of it because sometimes we are not aware that the tokens or coins already made a swap and the one we holding don't have any value, and sometimes the project already disappeared without our knowledge.

it also works for me because my main strategy is just to hold and I think by holding the coins, I can have a hope that I can make a big profit in the future. although I know that it is not guaranteed but if my biggest coins that I hold is bitcoin, I am sure that it will bring a big profit especially if the price can increase higher. but sometimes, I am selling my coin especially when I see the price can increase so I can get the profit.
