How to hold coins in 2018

[Bugatti73]

This marketplace is not for the faint hearted, this fact is what every trader must know and accept. Looking at the recent turn of events, the best approach to crypto is to hold for long term, day trading can get you burnt.

Last year we already showed that storing crypto currency can both increase your funds and reduce them.

Interesting thread initiated by mate Rydereee12 I really appreciate it and the other opinions are good too.
I share your same opinion I have also seen some coins that promised much in the Token Sale at the end of last year and so far this year the price of them remain very low. In short it is time to buy coins with a low price but how do we see their future? Some say that they depend on a great exchange (A large community wants to see its coin in BINANCE) so that the coins reach a good price.

It is still a mystery for me to see some coins that have lost their price more than 50% since Token Sale. Good projects with successful sale of tokens but with cryptocurrencies with low price.
What is the best strategy to follow? Hold is the strategy that we must still use to earn some profit.
I only hope for those projects that are working to handle the issue of volatility of cryptocurrencies and that promise to give us solutions in this regard.

I think watch the data on cryptocompare is a good idea. However, it require a deeper analysis to predict the right trend of the coin. And a good luck added!

If you are having a difficult time to hold your coins/bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency out there well for sure this thread is for you. There are so many ways to stay holding your cryptocurrency and it will benefit you in the future by having so huge rise up and having some profit out of it.

buy the coin or token you think have the best potential this year.
buy at low and store it on your wallet.
make sure you have the password and private key secured.
leave the wallet alone and open it on the 4th quarter.

I  think we should all coins for now in long term because cryptocurrency is far behind from its previous price so we must wait for the right time until our target price is reached before selling it.

Yes  we dont have any choice but to hold and  patiently waiting because its really a big losses of our investment if we force to sell all our coins while the market is very weak.

For me, I prefer to buy SFU and DTRC coins and invest for long term both coins are very cheap and the market value is  fast increasing after it introduce in the market.

I don't plan on selling coins back for fiat "for profit", I plan on holding until it increases in "purchasing power" and then using cryptos. I prefer the speed and anonymity of cryptos.

I think in purchasing power, not profit.

[Bugatti73]

I think that this year we just have to watch and hold coins. There will be no huge growth this year, maybe there will be a downward slide.

[lienfaye]

So how long to hold coins? The answer is that you go learn more thoroughly and comprehensively about the coins you want to invest in and make your decisions.

That's true, make an extensive research about the coin if it has potential and there's a possibility for a huge growth if you hodl it for long period. There are coins that is only good for short term and some coins like btc that is ideally good for long term hold. Well it still depends on how you want your plan to go, take profit if your investment already earn and keep hodling if the market is declining to avoid further losses.

On the experience of last year I can say that it is better to keep coins from 1 to 3 months. But this market is rapidly changing and you need to manage to adjust to it.

Market is changing but when it comes to the movement of altcoins, I really do not see anything changing that much as they are still in a way affected by bitcoin price movement and I do not want to be missing out on selling at a huge great price at the end of the day and thinking that the market will just be there sitting and waiting for me to take out profit when I should have. If you want to trade, then do so but be ready to learn and if you want to hold for as long as you can and miss out on those short terms as long as the trend changes, then be my guest.

Its really difficult to invest this year due to big fluctuation happened and some are selling their cryptocurrency investment to cut additional losses but for me I prefer to hold all my coins if the dropping of price will continue to occur. I must prefer to hold than to sell in very cheap price.

60% - BTC [Deposit]
40% - General Altcoins [Trade resource]

Trade with altcoins and convert trade profit to BTC 

This is my current strategy

As an investor I know it is time to hold than selling because price of bitcoin is increasing more so I have high patience and I am sure it will earn high profit for me at the end, when it was start of the year price was not so high but now it is very good and most of time keep on increasing so there is highly possibility to get profit at the end of 2018, so hold wait don’t think about selling.

You can create a list if you want to hold the coins in 2018. I will suggest you to buy altcoins and it will be 50% for Long Time altcoin hold and 20% Short time altcoin And the remaining 30% will be allocated for buying Bitcoin. The current time is a good time to buy coins because the market is down a lot. But it will be best to see the market's coins chart and research it. And decide from it.

Fluctuation can be taken as positive and negative both but I think for me it is the most positive and helpful feature of bitcoin, so buy when the price is low and hold it for long, let it be grow and then sell when you see price is now very high, so now a day market is getting red which means it is time to hold with patience and don’t sell till the end of 2018 so you will get surprise by so high price at the end of this year.

To hold coins it should be carefully selected and ensure its profitability because its very risky if we failed to choose the right cryptocurrency.

I think the best way to buy a removable wallet such as Trezor or Ledger and put coins there for a long time.

If you are ready to hold your coins for a year or so, then the very first thing which you need to do is that you must go for some safe wallet which can help you in keeping all your coins safe and that you also need to look for the coin which can then help you in having greater profit at the end of the day. The only condition is that you must stay patient and that you need not to get panicked.
