Intraday vs HODL

Intraday vs HODL

In the current market situation which one best and what do u guys prefer

It depends on the investor/trader/holder.

For example, I don't know how to trade then I'd prefer holding my coins. It will give lower profit in the short run but it is less risky compare to trading. Low risk = low reward.

On the other hand, if I know how to do trading then I'd prefer to do trading rather than holding it. It will give me higher profit but there is a higher risk on it because the price movement of crypto is unpredictable. High risk = high reward.

As you said there is high risk in making high profits but it does not exist where the factor changes. The factor of unstable prices can be determined by doing market research as we have seen that alteration is a part of coin but later on we get profit as a result of high ups in its value. It happens as a result of holding your coins for a long time; if you are not holding then the profit may be less. Otherwise, holding is a best way to make high profits.

In my experience too, we may day-trade with very little risk but the rewards too will be very little. If you refer the factors which are related to risks and when we focus on them I guess those intraday method of trading slowly changes into holding kind of trading. Yes, only very few factors are deciding which is intraday and which is holding type of trading. Still, I agree we may leave off few things in intraday so that we may achieve high performances in short period of time itself.

I do believe the time factor is the biggest differences between intraday and holding. At the same time when we are good in technical analysis and able to catch the end points then time frame may get shrunk into as little as intraday type of trading.

If it was so easy to know when the market is going down and when its going up then trading would have been much easier and everyone would be trading rather than doing other work to earn. TA is something that should be taken with a large dose of salt. Things like these dont just depend on trends that are being set but also on news that makes the market move.

A good example is the recent Binance hack that led to a loss in the BNB coin. BNB itself is a nicely disguised ponzi scheme but hey, whatever makes you turned on - right?

Hence take future speculations lightly and not as advice. Its better to be prepared for worst case scenarios.

top crypto coins are good for both trading and investing ,but investing in top crypto coins you will need capital more, if you can search good altcoins projects which are developing and working on there product that would be good investment

as for trading many coins will be ok as you don't hold positions for longer time

Isn’t it better to invest all your money in few best coins that to do so with so many coins with low prospect of growth? Bitcoin and ETH gives you great outputs in the market these days. Many other Altcoins are also good for speculation. DO not fear the high cost of investment. You can have ETH at around $174 right now and trust me it is going to rise in days to come.

That is not good to invest all his money to the best coins because at least, he needs to survive in every day and he cannot survive if he uses all his money to invest in cryptocurrency. Maybe he needs to divide his money into two parts, one part for his daily needs and the other parts to invest in cryptocurrency. And in the parts for cryptocurrency, he can divide again for investing in many coins so he can have a chance to take more profit from the various coin.

I am waiting for this growth for long. Each day, checking the rates, I do not find that ETH has changed its price greatly. I suspect that this "calmness" is a period before a real storm. Ethereum will go up.

[adzino]

Depends how much profit you are willing to make, how fast and how much of a risk you can handle. Being a day trader and sell your coins in a day poses huge risk. You might be making making small losses which might add up and make it a huge loss. Again, you will be making some quit profit. But holding gives you better chance of making a steady profit in the long run. You will have to have patience to reap in the rewards .

Keep hoping so and you might see better results soon. But a word of advice would be not to spend your sleep on altcoins because we have seen how worthless they become when the bear market starts. Only bitcoin is what is worth putting money in for a technological point of view and future growth potential.

How far Eth can go is what is keeping these traders alive to kick it back every time it drops, or it is just plain old bagholding tactics to promote and shill it so they can sell at higher price and make some quick buck.

Just look at where the price is going and decide yourself. See if you think that the value of the coins you have could gain weight. If yes, you should HODL and wait until you make the good money. Normally no one will day trade but rather trade extensively in a bullish market. Day trade gives you small profits and you need to know that you can make some big money in crypto as well. It’s up to you which way to go.

[mung_nasib]

when the price situation is still often volatile I prefer to hold an asset in a relatively long term so panic can be overcome and I tend to invest in bitcoin and ethereum in opening opportunities to get maximum profits in the future.

It depends on what you want to achieve with your investments, if you want profits with a very small amount of risk then investing in bitcoin, ethereum and other good coins will surely give you the profits you are looking for, the problem is that those coins are not going to grow as much as they did in the past and as such your profits will be smaller, but if what you are after are absolute profits then you need to invest in coins that are not very well known, the risks are higher but the profits can be higher as well.

i dont think holding in this time will bring us more profit than trading when the market is getting higher back higher every day, holding wont help you get more profit so as trading when we can easily have the huge profit everytime the matket fluctuates, and also be able to control our fund more effective and safer than just holding.

[LUCKMCFLY]

I think everything depends on what the person wants to achieve, because if he is a trader that always operates in the market, it is very likely that he always operates intraday or at some point leaves the medium term, but if he is a person who has the thought of investor, will not hesitate to invest, this is true as long as the person divides the way they want to operate and obtain benefits and how they operate in the market to have the patience for both types of trading to apply.

Hold in my case is very difficult, because I am not an investor, I do not have so much money or time to wait for such a bullish bitcoin trend, many people say that we are bullish, I know that we still have a lot to be bullish, so if can somehow diversify money into a single currency, I would not hesitate to leave it in bitcoin a part for intraday and another part would leave it to hold bitcoin months, years, until the bitcoin takes its bullish tendency to be able to think about making profits.

There are many operators who are desperate that want to invest in bitcoin and want to get benefits in a short time, this is not investing, because if we think that way right now it is difficult because we are in a clear stage of the accumulation market, where the volatility is very high, in fact we can see the bitcoin easy to reach $ 10k but can fall quickly even up to $ 3k because the bitcoins are not fully accumulated, and while this is the case the market will not be bullish.

Not all of us want to be a trader and some will just consider themselves as a simple marker holder, and they'll just do the basic buy in low and sell at high.
Trading needs knowledge and the risk is too high where some of us are afraid of.
I believe that holding is good but not all the time, we also learn to let go and take the opportunity to the other.

[Joyawan13]

There's no such thing as a "best" choice when talking about these. If you know how to profit through doing day trading/intra-day trading, then go with it. If you'd rather do something else like having a job/business, while  hold on to bitcoin or cryptocurrencies in general for years and simply wait out the price rises, then go hodl. As you may know, we're still in a bear market, whereas the prices are still slowly going down currently, then obviously the hodl strategy won't work(in the short term at least).

What's "best" really just depends on you.

yes, holding if only for the short term in my opinion it will never succeed, we must dare to trade on that day, even though it is a big risk of trading in a situation like this now but we must dare to do speculation, keep calm and just look at market price movements at this time, and we will regret if the crypto price will go up higher, it will only make us regret not trading when the is still at the lowest price.

That's a common thinking of those who can work with day trading, if you can proceed and make any good trading strategy you can practice and make a good profits each time you play with the sway, make sure to assess and analyze your skills.

It's nice if we are in assessing ourselves, we could be bias sometimes especially if we have a problem with handling our loses.
Being a day trader is not easy, you will have to ensure that you have monitored the market all the time as you are looking for the right entry and good timing does not show all the time.

Fast money, needs fast action as well, that's how day trader do.

No matter how little the profit day trade gives, it is still profit and moreover it depends on the amount of money that is being used to trade, not all day traders makes small profit, money is really never enough and I think the wisest thing to do for those that knows how to trade would be to just do both.

Going for both makes it easy for the investors to be more patient with his long term holding since he still has what is given him daily profit no matter how little it will be, at least it will definitely foot some of his bills.For those who does not know how to trade or would not take the risk of day trading, I think it would be better they just hold.

In that volatile market is when so many intraday/shorterm traders are really taking enough profit and compounding the quantity of coin they are holding, as we know of the volatile market of Bitcoin.

we know that there will always be dip before picking on its next value, one could take profit, wait for dip and buy again with both capital and profit, in this way, one is still playing the double game of holding and at the same time short trading which gives more profit in the long run, than those that just held their coin from bottom till they get the hit of ATH for them to sell and take profit.

Day trade is a full time job on its own and whoever will engage in day trade must be sometime that has passion for trading and is dedicated, which is the only way one can make profit on a daily basis. A day trader must always be prepared for losses, as no matter how good a day trader is, the entry point will always be a difficult thing which makes them vulnerable to losses. These things are not so easy to really maintain as an ordinary investor.

The best for ordinary investor is just to invest when market is dip and take profit at a satisfactory rate which is usually at the ATH of any coin that is a less tensed investment.
