Daytrading vs Holding

[livingfree]

Holding and day trading both are different things. Day trading needs experience trader while holding can be done by anybody. For day trading you have to know coins chart reading, their movement and their resistance but when you are purchasing coins to hold for some months then everyone can do this without fear. For me day trading in not so profitable then holding.

In general, trading is also for everyone.

You can trade without experience but you're at the disadvantage of losing. But everyone starts from no knowledge and understanding from it until they gain everything to become better.

It may seem easy to hear that holding is what the choice of most but it's also hard to do in the long run if you don't have other assets and investments to rely on.

Whereas you trade for a few days and make 50%

You didn't mention the risk involved to make that 50% profit, getting profits from trading isn't as easy as you think, the risk of losing and winning is 50/50, there's nothing sure in trading you could predict that the market will keep going up but most times it doesn't go according to plan, holding is still the best strategy anyway I'd rather hodl for a month to get 50% than lose $1,000 in search of 50% profit.

Thoughts on this for trading whether crypto or stocks? 

If I had to choose between both, I would gladly pick trading crypto since there are tons of coins in the market to trade on.

I don't think so that day trading isn't profitable than holding. If you're a good day trader, you can earn huge profit from it. But it's so risky than holding. High risk, high profit here. Here, you need to know the basics of day trading and experience on it.

Trading is best  i will recommend trade over holding. I  ruined my entire summer and made me super depressed. I was UP about $50,000 within 2 months of buying in. I not sold and  Now I'm DOWN $70,000 from where I started. I'm still holding on. So in the long run it's taught me to develope diamonds hands.

It is sad to read stories like this but you are going to eventually recover all of that money that you lost, however you do not have to wait and do nothing in the process, you can use all of this time that you have to teach yourself how to trade, so once you recover your money instead of holding now you can take advantage of the volatility and the variations in the market and increase your capital in that way, I know it is not easy to wait and hold but right now it is the only realistic option that you have.

in case of my personal, day trading is more fruitful so far from holding btw beside daytrading i have focused on holding btc,eth these are gem and also i am hold long term a few different altcoins which are hidden gem. day trading can be pay something big if your capital is large and your entrance will right movement in market.
   

there are those who really like the way you work by doing day trading but maybe there are also those who are more secure with long-term investments. Actually, both from a profit point of view, they clearly want to get the best, but I do agree that day trading with activities that are always active is certainly very profitable, but there are those who don't dare because they can anticipate wrongly and end up losing.
I agree that holding and trading bitcoin is very profitable although other altcoins are also good.

Holding always pays of. If you choose your coin wisely the gain will be more than  day trading.  And not everyone  have the patiencen to learn and research that is needed for day trading

Holding give me big kick.  I put 10k into shiba and was just dipping to a point where I had 2k left so I pulled out and was jumping on all the pump and dumps, I made 61k back over 2 months and will never hold onto a coin ever again but each to there own

No wonder you got rekted as memecoins like Shiba are not meant for hodling, and same goes for 99% of the other altcoins. Regarding day trading, many have good streaks for a couple of weeks or months at the most, but in the long run 95% of them would have more if they just opted for hodl. But of course, not hodling crap like Shiba but BTC.

If you are among those few % that are capable of staying in profit in the long run, keep it up!

Holding does require a lot of patience and just like you said that not everyone can do that,
both day trading and holding have their respective risks,
and what is clear is that there is no easy way to do day trading or holding both has its own level of difficulty

This is true, trading may or may not pay up all the effort that you make, however holding if done for long enough is always going to pay, however we must understand that it is still a difficult thing to do as bitcoin can go down in price really quickly and people can get nervous about that movement and decide to sell their coins because they got scared the price could go down even further, but if you can control those feelings then that is when the potential for huge profits for your portfolio really opens up.

We have to choose our journey, day trading and holding are quite different though we have the same goal to make money. For some who are full time in trading, they have a good chance to be profitable in day trading because they can spend time to research and gain more experience, for some investors who are busy with their jobs and businesses outside crypto, they don't need to choose day trading, holding along is enough as long as they fully understand crypto and the potential of the coin they are investing.

Without a doubt both are different and require different strategies however it is obvious that if we look at the rate of success of both ways to try to earn money from the markets then we are going to see that investors are on average successful in greater numbers than day traders and this is because it is easier, day trading is by far the most difficult way to produce profits in the markets but since it has the potential to also be the most profitable then it is not a surprise why so many people want to become one.

The fact is "there's money in both"! People who held the right coins are enjoying profits, daily trades who have the third sense for the right timing are enjoying profits!

Why separate trading from holding? Serious traders always have something on a side (holding), and depending on the pair you either stack dollars or sat's (let's use BTC/USDT pair for example), so if you chose the right pair and you stack the right one you will make a profit! Stacking is necessary for this process because many times the price movement will surprise and we need to have a backup plan... and that backup plan requires some funds, one way or another!

That's nice for you, considering that the coin you've mentioned have been in a pump and hype and then after that, it's all going down. As a trader, you really have to know when to sell and when you'll let go of it. If you didn't let go of it, you're at loss and you probably don't want to dump it anymore because you've made a loss and you want to recover it, that's how many times me and others have been stuck into a holding of an alt because we're in loss and we don't want to cut it down.

Holding always pays of. If you choose your coin wisely the gain will be more than  day trading.  And not everyone  have the patiencen to learn and research that is needed for day trading

both day trading and holding have their respective risks,
and what is clear is that there is no easy way to do day trading or holding both has its own level of difficulty

the patience required for holding can be immense, when the price we hold is getting near to ath it will make holding seem profitable and easy but when the price is nearing the bottom, it will make us want to dump because the market seem like go do down further while the market always move like that, if we hold for long term we will see many of bear and bull market, it has its own advantage and disadvantage just like with day trading.

I think when we feel that when we hold it, of course it is a natural thing,
we know for ourselves that the current market conditions are also not stable and this can be said to be a tough condition for the holders,
what is clear is that patience plays an important role here and it is not easy

Level of patience on each person is really different, some could able to hold that long and some wont really be that too patient when it comes on seeing things that is going down or simply they do cut loss
or would sell off immediately when they do see profits which i can say that its a must thing.

There are holders which doesnt really care on what are the market conditions as long those goals or mindsets are intact which is particular be sold off on a specific time that they had set on.

Hodling might sound too simple but its not because there are lots of factors which might really affect your perseverance and dedication.

And remember, one consideration also for long time holding is if you can afford it. Not many can hold long term as they have financial needs to address. Whereas, for those who can very well sustain their lifestyle without touching their assets, they can really hold off long time without bothering what's happening in the market. But for those who want faster return of their funds, they can always opt to day trading. But they should be careful, as one wrong move, all their profits may be gone.

If you are well versed in trading and can do market analysis then you can do daily trading. It is better not to hold there.

I disagree with what you've said. If you're good at trading, you can still hold. There's no condition or ruling about holding. Well, actually it is better if you're a good day trader and then you're also a holder. You've got another source of investment that's for sure you're going to profit on it someday while you're actively trading.

Holding is best for those who are not well versed in trading and cannot analyze the market.If you can trade with good analysis then you can make a lot of profit every day.

I agree for those can't do day trading, they better study first and hold.

[bandungan]

holding or trading is a personal choice. but for a safe strategy people will choose holding in any way, because what we know now is that trading has risks and trading also requires accurate analysis. in this case holding only requires patience and accuracy until the price really increases and experiences a large pump.
