Smart hodling vs just hodling

[doomistake]

we can use a smart holding strategy, that is, by holding, but by trading a part of the BTC we have, if we only wait for silence until the price of bitcoin rises. I think it will be too risky and boring. so the best step is to wait and do a little bit of trading

It is boring, and very frustrating at the same time, the majority of the bitcoin population are doing smart holding when they run out of options to secure their profits that they could have in the long run because if they don't they will lose it by feeding the whales in the bearish market. A little bit of trading that you were saying is a risky move especially if you are doing it to cure your frustration, you will not get any good result.

There are a lot of short term trading opportunities available in crypto market. Since, the market really very volatile and there are frequent short term trend change, short term trades can be really fruitful. I agree for the people who doesn't know trading much, long term as an investment opportunity in crypto is better. But they can play with stop losses and keep a check on price and trends which are quite visible and structure their investment accordingly.

I'm confident I've made the right decision to hold my bitcoin for long term and I consider this smart holding.

My regret maybe was holding a lot of altcoins that I thought would make a difference in the future as during the time I buy them, they look really promising but because the market in general especially for the altcoins is full of scams, that's why I have become a bag holders for some worthless coins now.

Bitcoin is the only coin which is mostly leaving majority of people in huge profits. Bitcoin is to make you rich in no time if you are holding it because this is the only coin which has generated maximum rich people all over the world in crypto world. If you are bad at trading, there is no point of going into day trading. Simply hold bitcoin and take it out when you become rich.

I also hodl a lot of altcoins, but they're not shit coins, I hodl them until now because they have the potential, the only mistake you've made is that you didn't do some investigations if they are good to hodl in the long run, and that is not a smart hodling. Bitcoin is the most promising coin we have in the market that no doubt will always gives us profits if we buy it in the right timing, like right now, before it rocket up again.

In overall for great and less risky profit, you have to hodl but at the same time there are some things to consider to make your profit even more amazing.
For example imagine price of bitcoin was 10k $ and you bought at that time. Price went down to 9K, then up to 10k again, then 11k, then boom, 13K. I think at the moment it's better to sell them on 13K because there is still high possibility of price fall and usually that happens after such rise. Now let's imagine logically it would happen like price fall on 11k (but you sold it on 13k so have more usd). Buy again on 11K, maybe it will fall on 9k for example but now is the moment where you have to hold for a long time and sell on 12k and higher to achieve better profit and repeat same action again when there is really good time for that.

Indeed!, we can smart hodl if we have a right amount of money that can help us to survive days that we are holding it, just hodl it but when the right time comes for example when it will reach $12k sell some of it and hold it the half of your earning you may sell it again and some half you may use to your daily earnings.

Smart holding is completely different one based on our investment we should get some returns on it like POS-based coins, through our holding we might get some coin and which we can sell those for money and Just holding is nothing but a day trading which our desired target is reached. In any case, we should always make money so we have to plan them wisely according to the research we do.

Those who do not have idea about trading techniques consider short term trading highly stressful and hectic whereas experts make great money by this profession. Crypto has tendency to accommodate both kinds of traders whether they are long term traders or short term because altcoins are good for latter and bitcoin is best for former.

Trading is not just an easy to make money, you need first to have a deep study on it and probably you may encounter a big loss. Well, I would prefer smart holding rather than just holding because we all know that holding is a really great investment for you to earn big profit in a long term but smart holding is great as well because you don't need to wait for a long time. As long as you can earn even a small profit would be fine as long as you are earning fast.

[The Cryptovator]

Whatever you explained on OP it's called mid term trading. Its not really smart hold. How many peoples could sell bitcoin during dump? Very rare. Because no one know when it will bump again. So there is also risk involved. You are lucky that you won good ROI. But how we know that everyones are lucky same like you. If you have enough capital then you might play this game trading btc/USD. I accept this, if now sell during dump sometimes might lost huge and I have experience about that.

I want to add some more relevant information to your comment, just holding can make us relieve the pressure and just wait for the bright future but it does not guarantee us a great profit in the long run, great profits are possible but it can still be a big loss when we don't control this process. While holding smart gives us more advantages, offset the shortcomings of just holding, no need to wait too long, participate and survey real situation in the market, more stable and better management

You can't expect heaven at all times in trading, though it feels so easy while good times was there for us, but for such a long time of risking our personal savings, our money, wealth and dreams I don't think it's worth it. We may think we're smart enough to handle things with trading, once you've seen the outcome but first and foremost never take for granted the possible crash on the value of you asset.

If we find its gaining a quicker profit that might be efficient for your spending needs, don't hesitate to sell while it's profitable, because you'll regret if one day that asset will become undervalued.

I don't hold bitcoin or any altcoin at the moment. I only consider holding bitcoin and altcoins during a market bull run in order to get profits. I don't believe holding bitcoin is profitable all the time because at any time the price will fall that is why I prefer holding during the bull runs.

[WatchMaker]

I think the best way to buy bitcoin is by using the standard strategy called "buy low and sell high". The best time to buy bitcoin is when there is a price dip, once you buy the bitcoin at a low price then you need to HODL it for some time and wait for the bitcoin price to get higher and then sell your bitcoins with profits.

[mdzahed134]

I'm actually doing smart HODLing, HODLing for profits, not just HODLing either in loss or profit. I stick with old crypto saying, buy low and sell high. I don't just buy bitcoin at any price but my price. I do actually have a bitcoin buying price which is $4,000 to $5,000 and sell whenever the price gets over $12,000 to get more profits, of course.    

Anyone not interested to holding for the loss it’s very unexpected thing. And smart holding isn’t short term i think because bearing market is going from long times ago. In that case, your smart holding will be long term until the market green. I'm also prefer smart holding because just holding is always risky for the assets. But this holding is not appropriate for all of the cryptocurrency. I just smart holding specially with BTC & ETH and some top ranking coins.

With that in mind, the smarter way to hold bitcoin is to sell it when prices start going down, only to re-buy a larger quantity when prices stabilize at a lower range. Then, with the same capital, you increase your bitcoin holding every time prices drop.
-snip-

Sell when dropping, buy when it starts to rise? You know, it is easy said than done. And this is not how it always work. What if when you see the price dropping, you sell, but as soon after you sell, the price starts to rise fast? What are you going to do then? Again, what if you assume that the price is rising, but after you buy all you see is the price dropping? You can also never know when the price drop will start or when its going to rise. Same goes for finding out the peak rise or dip. I would suggest you to go for "just holding" and sell when you reach your goal.

And you'll get to the point which all traders face when trying to follow your strategy. Is the dip over or not? Is the pump over or not? Are we already high or are we going higher? Are we already low or are we going lower?

I had that this Spring when I held coins bought at 4000 dollars and the price went to 6. For me it was a very good trade with 50% gain and i thought like we were going to get rejected at that level but we were not and quickly went up another 2000. So I had a chance of 100% profit but took a 50%. So again when is the right high?

[ovcijisir]

It all seems good but when can you say that price won't go down more and more. Btw. what is the difference between smart hodling and trading, it is same as far as I know

[rodel caling]

This my own analysis what is the difference of two holders,smart holders is always monitor the market price buy low sell high get small of profits in very trade possible to double the money of tripple.
For the just hold and safe their investment for long term they strongly believe bitcoin will goes up again waiting for the another all time high before to Hope people understand what I want you share.

[PickDawgz]

I really struggle with when to hold and buy., I look at technical support and resistance levels but often when i see it pressing one way or another I don't have the need for the cash and I don't like the idea of it sitting there. If I am just looking to trade it, not something I like to do, I guess I am more of an investor?

Smart holding is a type of investing strategy in my opinion. The investor just regularly buy something in the market and he hold it for long term while trading is basically buying from a low price point and selling it to a high price for a profit. If you don't know technical analysis and you don't want to experience stress then it is better for you to just do smart holding.

Being smart with holding, you don't need to purchase more of them but picking them safely is how you're going to determine their potential. Too much agressivenes on trading has no assurance of profitable gains, because it was just only holding without plans. What's important is knowledge towards your asset and not just having it without any goals for the future.
