Good start with the  trading mate. I am not sure if you are trader or you just putting up your thoughts here but these are the two terms every potetnial trader must know and learn to act accordingly. With my experience I have seen people go crazy about the long term trading. The reason, it's kinda  difficult to hold for very long time when you see the bitcoin market is fluctuating at alarming rate. The number one reason behind people sell before the timeline completes is their greed to book the profits. That's even good thing but the exit strategy could fail when you see that the bitcoin or other crypto has gone way further than what you sold at.

To avoid such pre-matured sells is kinda tough thing. Every trader fails at this and in turn do not become the long term holder. But, believe me crypto is an asset which can give fruitful results if you hold them for very long period of time. I mean come on, few cents invested a decade ago are worth 45K USD today. Lolz.

yeah,it's difficult to hold for very long time when you see the bitcoin market is fluctuating at alarming rate.but we need be patient to make bigger profits.
market will teach us this rule.

To invest in coins in the long term or in the short term it depends on the coin that we hold. If a coin has a fantastic selling value and it refers to the short term, what is wrong with us selling the coin so that we get the profit we expect.

[nelliella]

i can't use my strategy because of my balance so i think most of us making decisions based on our balance , not for our skills .

[Qirtov]

Strategy is really very important so that you don't sway in the market and don't get confused. Therefore it is important for you to determine the right strategy for yourself. Whether it's short term or long term you have to adjust it to the coins you have bought. Do an analysis first before you buy a coin after that think of a possible strategy. If a short term with a fairly large profit can be chosen why not, this is actually good for you so as not to miss the golden time that might happen at any time. Not only that, with a short period of time you can also make money faster because you don't have to wait a long time. But if you are not satisfied and want to make more profit, maybe long term can be your choice. But keep in mind that coins are also very influential because the price is difficult to predict.

For those who are thinking long term, of course, they will choose some coins that they believe in the future of these coins and hold them. Even though the price of the coins has increased and they have already made a profit, it is still being maintained.
If those who only think about the short term, and only trade daily, at least they have already profited from the coin held without thinking about the next big profit. Usually people like this do not want to take risks from these assets. So, people who think short term, they are the ones who follow the crypto trend, and watch the whale talk about which coin to invest in next.

[ninkdwi]

apart from anything it's all good and can be done but there are some things that need to be remembered, apart from not needing to be a fomo you also have to have rules in adopting something, at least you are not random in choosing coins that are really suitable to buy and as for Following billionaires or influencers, I actually don't think it's too much of a problem as long as you can use the momentum correctly and of course have your own observations.
but the problem for beginners is that they try to follow the hype and fomo without being based on mature knowledge so that they make the wrong placement which makes many of them lose.

I do believe that long term holders still do not jump into things all-in after they are super high, we also may not end up selling it when it s super high, but not buy much neither.

I am a big time believer of long term investment and that is what I did for a while now, I have invested most of my money when bitcoin was under 10k, and eventually I bought some more when it was going up, but the higher it got the lesser money I put into it, and that meant even less bitcoin I got, satoshis even, but I still did it, and when it became lower and lower and reached 30k, I bought my biggest batch since the 10k+ barrier was broken at 33k levels (wanted lower but barely got money together when it was 33k) so it is quite good feeling and I do not think that many long term investors like me like to put money into crypto when it is super high, it is just not logically smart to do after a big increase.

If we are focusing on long-term hold, many will not change it into the current situation because the main purpose of holding is for a long-term investment. And commonly they will only store, not opening it for several years. or even opening it to check and also add the balance.
Many people will be storing the long-term assets better in the hardware wallet.

if I myself, I prefer to a short term investment and also trading because I don't have much capital and from these activities, increasing small by small to get a higher amount of profits every day.

[WalkerIVIV]

Someone can always change it but remember that when you can't hodl you won't be rich. Just take a look at so many long term hodl of Binance, Ethereum and various coins that have become major coins. They were spending their money to be divided for both. Used it as short and longterm investment.
I personally will prefer to pick long term over short term. Sometime you're thinking the price of your coin already hit ATH and you have sold it to the market.
I have experienced it sold too early and my asset was going even higher than what i have sold it. that's why i always pick long term over short term

In this cryptocurrency long-term or short-term trading is usually based on the experience it has gone through. Which was more profitable at the time.
If in the short term it has shown a large profit, of course it can sell it. But if the value of a coin has not made a profit on target, usually we will hold it
longer to make a profit. In this case we usually learn from the history of our own experience in trading.

Precisely, it wasn't to see that this strategy makes other people become rich and you need to follow because that might possibly it won't work on you or you don't have the capability to do that. We don't need to force ourselves then as this will only lead to compromise us and even it leads to suffering losses instead of aiming for a profit.

To choose a strategy that we are comfortable with, it was just like you are winning already. Learned it, urge ourselves to do more and surely it works. Well, that it needs some effort as we keep in mind that there is no easy money in here.

if you are holding various alts, one responsibility is to follow them to know where they are heading at. blindly holding it will not be good for your investments. experience, indeed is the best teacher here. with our experience in trading, we can easily spot if the team is just doing pumpndump to elevate its value or not. you will understand if there is increase in value if there is significant achievement of their objectives, if not, doubt the reason why it is pumping. the team may soon be dumping their coins and be gone, who knows? this is where we are blind at, the intentions of the team behind the project. as they can rug pull anytime especially if they are anonymous.

Short term investors are more stressful as they have to check the movements of the coin they invested into very often. Even if they set their own price goals, they can't make do by just waiting and doing nothing. Especially, the panic sellers in this group make things really bad when they take unwise actions.

However, long term investors are not that stressful. Because they are just HODLers. HODL doesn't mean that you will continue to hold your coins forever. You must know when to stop waiting and sell all of your profit or a certain amount of it. HODLers don't need to check the market very often. Because they are already accepting to wait for a long time.

I'm actually both of these ones. I've invested into some coins for a long term and a short term also. I like to distribute my investments among various coins. Because I don't think that it is very logical to put all eggs in one basket.

[FairUser]

As the OP mentioned, I can understand it in a simple way, we all have the tools and the way to become successful. But the problem is that we do not have enough knowledge to understand our choices, and need more experience to be able to evaluate ourselves.

[Reid]

That's correct. But it was just the basics of investment.
The crucial part is when and how? If you decided on a short-term investment you should also have a plan on when you will withdraw it.
The same goes for long-term investment. Make a date, put it in memory.
You should also not resist the withdrawal even if you see pumps happening left and right. Once you start to defy them, all the plans will not work out anymore, you will get used to it and it becomes a bad habit.

It's easier to just stake cryptos like Celo and NEAR instead of trading, most traders lose money. What are you staking?

[mobtc]

I have always been playing short-term trading. I used to buy and sell various mainstream currencies on exchanges. The rise and fall speeds were very slow.
Now I start to play various new altcoins. This makes money fast but also loses money quickly.

Thats correct. Some people flip so much money for short term and trying to get some funds from it by doing days or weeks of trading. There are a lot of flippers out there but the best one for me is long term hodl. Thats the safest or the less hassle free investment method that works for anyone. Holding could give you more profit in the long run and thats proven when you look on different altcoins out there. So much gains have already been rip up.
