HOLDING VS TAKING PROFITS DURING BULL RUN

[death69]

It's always advised to take profit at intervals during bull because you never know when dip will come and how far it will go. Contrary, there is a perspective of holding for long to get a maximum profit( as said by CZ : "you can't be rich if you can't hold"). From the little survey i did, holders usually earn more profits that people who take little profits. However this depends on your kind of person and what works for you, holders are patient people who don't care whatever happens along the way. Profit takers see opportunities and take profits and move to next one. It's a very deep topic to be honest, and I will like to have your opinions on this. Please share your views

If you miss the opportunity then you will also lose when you are holding long term so it all depends on your analyzing skills but its true that long term holders make profits but it doesn't mean everyone have to follow the same strategy.

If you are kind of person who can able to reinvest the small profits at the right time then compounding will also give the same high returns where it is safer but high time taking than just holding.

I agree. Compound interest can give you a huge amount of money over a long time. By taking profit, you can benefit yourself with this technique. But you need to know that it is not safer than holding. Holding can give you upto 10000% in profit (according to many coins I have seen on the cmc) while trading in order to take small profit, is riskier with less profit.

Just find yourself a suitable investment method. We are all going to be rich in this bull run if we are wise enough to understand not just the market, but also ourselves

Holder always win but if have much money its easy how to be holder, how we only get profit from short term trading and what the best solution way to be holder, maybe impossible without any way become source income for use looks hard to be holder. I hold maximum one week and if price not grow up I will sell and cut loss.

it all depends on what works for every individual, everyone is firstly simply aiming to making money and more money which can be achieved in different ways. each person will set his/her goals based on their needs, ability, availability, and so on.

Yeah, every individual here in crypto has different goals, others wanted to get short term profit, while majority based on their experience, would rather hold for long term goal. It's a surefire formula specially if you have that mentality to go to several stages of bull runs. I was still a newbie when I experience the bull run in 2017 so I didn't hold, but looking back if I just save all the bitcoins I have back then, that's already a huge profit for me, but if I just sold in today, I could make more x3 on top of the profits that I gain in 2017.

Many trader and investor looking short term or fast way how to get profit, never have any ideas holding for long term and keep waiting until bitcoin and altcoin assets back to higher price, just up trend more than 5% they sell all and looking for with other coin. I think is usually happen for all trader and some time I sell early when get enough profit.

For me, I think it is more likely to depend on the project itself rather the individual investors as most project doesn't succeed and end up being rugged or dipped is mostly because of project progress itself. Most projects isn't worth to hold unto and there are others that are too worth it too hold unto. It's just a matter of what project or tokens you are holding will make you rich.

Still, there are ways that you can easily profit and be rich by holding on a short term rather than long term. There are many tokens out there that has pumped and dumped but never reach its previous ATH which aren't  good to hold unto on a long term basis.

Also, holding on long term is much more riskier which is most of the early adopter of bitcoin did last long due to various FUDs and Dumps happening but you can never earn too much if you can tolerate these.

Taking the profits and allocating them to other coins to invest is different to just taking the profits from your holdings.

Hodling is good for a long run, but having allocated investments is wiser.

Taking the profits and allocating them to other coins to invest is different to just taking the profits from your holdings.

Yeah both are different, I agree. But when you keep re-investing, I guess you are maximizing your chances for getting profits out of same capital. I guess not all traders are doing that because when you book profits from one trade, you may go relaxing yourself rather than risking with another trade. Probably when you are good at technical parts then you may continue your trading from one profits to another new trade, otherwise just booking profits and wait for some time would be good.

Hodling is good for a long run, but having allocated investments is wiser.

How about holding multiple coins at the same time for longer term? I guess for that you must need big capital but when you have started some few years back then I guess that is not a big problem with respect to needed money for allocating into multiple coins and holding for long period.

The timing is important, the main advantage of the cryptocurrency market is that we have a clear path till now with two rallies in the past and the present rally on how the market will perform and we can access and almost accurately predict when a rally will start and how long the rally will last and all you need is to hold the coins when the market turns to bear and then plan on accumulating the coins till the next rally and then book your profit.

You will not find a better market than the cryptocurrency market according to my experience and it is difficult to predict how the market would be if there are strict regulations imposed on the market in the future but till now booking your profit during bull and then re entering again is the best strategy.

Yeah, crypto markets must be the best one even in my experience. Some people might be having different opinion because of its wild volatility but for the people who are good in predicting market directions and handling that volatility into profit-making definitely will love this market. Still, taking up profits time to time is highly recommended even it is a continuous bull run.

It would be wise to hold only bitcoin for long-term and if you're holding altcoins then definitely you must go for profit booking whenever you are into profits. Because market corrections may happen at any time so if you're ready with profits then we can make use of those corrections by buying back at lower prices than our profit booking.

Yes I agree. Holding bitcoin will benefit you in long run but if you're holding some altcoins that will help you maximizing your bitcoins in long run. I mean if you're holding altcoins and you are calculating profit levels in BTC prices then when you're getting into profits then you will get more number of bitcoin than before; this will definitely lead to bigger profits when bitcoin as well getting price appreciation over the time.

So taking profits and allocating those profits into other altcoins and following them in BTC levels will help anyone to crack huge profits over time. Still long-term holding of bitcoin is highly recommended one regardless of where you are allocating your portfolio into other altcoins or not.

Actually, actively trading on this current bull run may take huge profits if people do it properly. But of course, it cannot be compared to those who hodl and profit since 2018-2020 price.

If you have sold on $60k~ish and buy on $48k~ish then that's also a pretty good profit actually.

[2double0]

Old bull run has taught me that sticking to your investment is foolish because we need to hold it and wait for the next opportunity to strike in. What could have happened if this bull run didn't come? The losses would be considered as permanent losses and these markets would have become more compressed in volume and liquidity because of no trust. I did not sell some of my investments in 2018 bull run and after that crash, held them till now but there are yet some coins which must increase in price. It taught me not to keep my investments 'forever' with me and sell out some parts at times when I think that the market may start its sinking process.

Actually it is a good thing as long as the bullrun can take quick profits because the market is moving so fast, I think many do this as long as the bullrun is still happening, even from shitcoin it can benefit hundreds to thousands of dollars, I take advantage of this from buying coins garbage at Pancekeswap and of course all this must be prepared with all the risks.

The meaning of holding before to selling now can be said to be profitable, they just need to hold more patiently where they can take the perfect profit, say, buy at the price in 2018 and sell it now, how many times it should be now.

[fahmimajannat]

For me its better to take profit in bull run.
Cause its not the time of hodl. Its time to book your profit than after bear market took place Than again invest and start to hodl untill the next bull run.
So book your profits and w8 untill the bear market take place

[fortune1002]

I think to get little profit is good sometimes because we don't know what is future of that token and sometimes hold is good which can give us high profit that we can't expect. So we should take decision by researching on token.

[johnwest]

I feel taking profits whenever you are satisfied is also a necessary part of trading. I know that there will be some coins which can make you rich overnight, but the possibility of that is really low and who knows, you might end up with nothing or you can diversify with the profit you have got and make more when other coins grow. Its like a Matrix tablet, you have to choose either one and trust your instincts.

Prefer staking than holding because can get double chance from coin hold increase higher price and get income from staking side although few percent every month, you can take out from staking without your balance loss or waiting few time. Prefer staking if you want to hold coin for long time and take benefit with staking reward.

Conceptually you are right but practically no coin is maintaining same value even after years of staking; that is the big problem with the most of the POS coins. If holding and staking will be getting us double profits then I believe all POS coins might have got ranked in top 25 of coinmarketcap list.

Personally I have tried many staking coins but unfortunately all of them not getting me profits. Currently I am staking RDD but not sure what is going to happen because right now it is trading below 20 satoshi but I have bought around 60 satoshi some two years back.

This the problem but I believe with great coin like BNB worth to stake and get much profit because BNB always have higher price, not any bad chance to make you worry with BNB coin because this exchange coin always burning every year and get chance to higher price. But I have other coin is HEX always up and give higher profit staking each four months.

In fact, I prefer holding over trying to make a profit during the bull run. Well, I feel like trying to take advantage of the bull run is a rush. As for the holding, you don't care when the time is, but the assets you have are getting bigger, whereas when a bull run occurs, you can make a maximum profit. Well, that is what I believe, and I have been doing all this time.
