The Dying Myth of long term holds???

[RGMan]

No, the myth is not debunked. Long-term hold is definitely a solution for those who are not used to taking risks. Market fluctuations? If you enter for a long time, you should not care. Just forget that you have a cryptocurrency and remember this in a year, when there will be positive news.

Long term hodl always works out ,no doubts about that ,I don't like trading maybe because I don't know how to trade ,if you know howvto trade you can make more profits per day

[Crypdon]

It depends on the skill of the investor, it's kind of like gambling but if you're like a good poker player who can make money out of it then it is more profitable to day trade. My skill / luck isn't particularly good so i'm going to stick with long term hodl, but need to be aware of the ups and downs

[JakenBake]

It all depends on your trading skill level.  If you are a gifted trader than Hodling is going to be a disaster for you.   On the other had if your not a trader and try to force it bad things will also happen.  It comes down to your personality and what best suits you.

It is evident that the current market conditions, more stable and consolidated than four or five years ago, make it increasingly difficult to repeat the scenarios of high volatility in which practically any cryptocurrency had the potential to increase its price above 1,000% in one year.

I am convinced that as time goes on, we will see that only very few cryptocurrencies will be able to survive the passage of time, and those that may persist in the market will offer increasingly more conservative growth rates, so I think that the convenience of the Long term holds will become a myth sooner rather than later.

I think that we shouldn't believe in myths. To my mind, it is necessary to choose the best coin  for example ether or btc and keep them until the market recovers to the full extent and we will see the increase in prices

I never hodl long term, just hate it. I like to be in the control of the situation. If you just keep your money  in the wallet, it doesn’t work all the time. As for me, it is inefficient.

Now it is only necessary to invest long-term investments in bitkoyn. Short-term investments are very risky and therefore I do not recommend them to invest. For me bitkoyn, who moved from a place is a good investment.

It's quite ironic for you to make that statement about hodling and yet promoting Pool of Stake in your sig... ;p

The myth has always being that long term holdings is better than short term/daily trading.
Thinking about it; with the current atmosphere around cryptos, is the future really guaranteed to be banking on long term holds or is it all a gamble.
Some day traders make very good profits nevertheless, which makes me wonder if this myth still applies.

The long-term retention of the Crypto-currency and the short-term or even daily trade in the Crypto currency are quite different methods of earning in crypto-alaite. All of them deserve attention and are normal only for a certain state of the crypto-currency market. This year, the continued retention of coins and tokens is inefficient due to the decline and stagnation of the crypto-currency market. This tactic is effective only when, despite various price fluctuations, the crypto-currency market as a whole is growing. Trade on the exchange is effective with sharp fluctuations in prices, even in conditions of relative market stability, but it is more risky and will require a lot of knowledge and skills.

maybe long-term investing is quite profitable if someday prices will continue to grow rapidly in the future, but have a big risk if someday the assets that we invest do not develop and continue to decline then the losses will be very large.

Long term hold of cryptocurrency is not a myth, it is market economics. The principle of demand and supply dictate the available coin in the market and the price placed on the supply. If you ask people that sold their bitcoin and litecoin at the peak of the market last year, they will tell you holding is the best strategy in cryptocurrency.

[xuan87]

Long term hold could be a gambling, but it's a gambling with higher odds to win because we got data and news, when we decide to take a long term investment we are looking for the potential to grow in the future, what companies or countries that will adopt crypto, short term and long term got its own advantage and disadvantage, so it depends on your skill and the aim of your investment

[bellamente]

It all depends on your temperament. Daily trades are more highly profitable, but also bear the big risks of losing all the money.

I prefer Diversification to my investments

It's not a myth, every investment can bring profit in a short or long period of time, HODL is a long period investment

[craked5]

This myth will live and it works. But not with everything. Some coins will lose its price because of different reasons. Chose strong projects and don't worry. You will get your profit.

[kafiddrhman]

I think, a long-term investment is not always better than a short-term investment. It depends on the project that we are joining in; there are some projects which are good for long-term investment, there are also some projects which are good for short-term investment. It's up to you, which one do you prefer.

Short-term trading is much more risky than long-term, and you should always relate the risks to the possible profit. Believe me, if you earn $ 100,000 in a short-term trade but then lose $ 80,000 because of inexperience, then you have poorly related the risks to your opportunities, and for you the option to earn $ 50,000 in the long term would be much better.

[Jamesdila1]

longterm holding giving you better profits depending on the market condition. for a example a holder of 2018 may feel it bad. but a holder of 2017 mid to 2018 January experienced best returns for holding. trading is the way to increase your holding. every trader must hold their profit. thats the way to achieve success. i have got 100X from XVG just from holding it in 2017

[powerman24]

If you are holding a top coin than it is not a myth, thus trading is more profitable from "just" holding.
But, if you are holding a non - potential coin your investment is in danger as you can lose it all.
