Just HODL

[Amphenomenon]

It's January 5 and those traders who focus on using leverage are already hitting huge losses when it's not even bear market.
Twitter

This happened 2days ago, over $600 million has already been loss few days to 2024. Trading is hard and risky while using leverage makes it more risky especially using high leverages. One reason to avoid trading with leverage is that, these traders suffers more in pump and dump Schemes and also market Manipulations especially those traders who trade meme coins and other altcoins which are prone to this.
The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.

Even if you desire to trade just use spot trading or any other offering less risk while when using leverage use small leverages and don't be too greedy to use stop lost and take profit.

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.

As far as Bitcoin is concerned, I don't encourage trading, whether for beginners or professionals. If you have hit your maximum stash, then you can think of trading, but for the most part, it's just a hobby, so just hodl.

All these losses are because some people just panic at every little shift in expectations, whereas they know too well that they are gambling yet leverage with what they might not afford to lose.

Since we are still anticipating halving, the advice is to just hodl, which the supposed majority of us here already know or are doing already.

[EL MOHA]

This liquidation actually happen on the 3rd January when the bitcoin price had a heavy fall from $45k to $40k within few hours due to the rumor that bitcoin ETF will be rejected. The largest single liquidation order was actually reported to have happen on houbi BTC-USDT which was valued at $14.26M. The major thing that I think affected most of this traders that got liquidated was as that they had too much confidence on the market pumping with many going for long trade and forget to set a stop loss.

This cases are mostly common with newbies although even experienced traders got affected to. As for the newbies, one of the most secure thing is to just invest in to bitcoin and then hold for a long time, this is less risky than jumping into trading without proper knowledge

[Adbitco]

The thing is everyone wants to become trader without knowing the key note and important aspect concerning trading, that is why most people easily lose their money at cause of wanting to make huge profits or to double their money will result them to entire lost. Sticking to bitcoin is more advisable maybe they can gradually engage themselves with DCA, with DCA they can be to accumulate whatever amount of bitcoin they wish to than involving in trading and I still encourage holding.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.

It isn't just the best bet now, it has always been the best bet right for time but people choose to ignore hodling but encourage trading and the exchanges are among those pushing this agenda to encourage trading as they make more money from those trading using their exchanges. People have been brainwashed into thinking there's more profits in trading than hodling, they consider hodling to be boring and I have seen people saying trading is a way of making passive income from Bitcoin and people believe them without understanding what passive interest income is.

You're stressing yourself when you trade while you could have just bought and hodl your Bitcoin and make the same profits. The highest earners in the history of Bitcoin, isn't the traders but the hodler and they do so with minimum efforts. All you need to hold is just to get a good self constodial wallet to use so your coins don't get exposed to hackers.

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL

While you're talking about hodling altcoins, I just want to put it out there that they're a gamble. Altcoins don't have the same fate as Bitcoin. You can hold Bitcoin and be guaranteed that you'll make profits when the market is bullish but the same thing can't be said about altcoin and how do you do your research to know which one will do well when the ones doing well recently aren't even the ones we would've called the good projects because I see just projects with good marketing teams doing well irrespective of the projects been trashed.

This happened 2days ago, over $600 million has already been loss few days to 2024. Trading is hard and risky while using leverage makes it more risky especially using high leverages.

Forced liquidations are more serious when the market is very bullish or very bearish, when people are very fearful or very greed. You can watch the Fear and greed index and if you see it is very fear or very greed, it is time for you to step down and watch the market. Because sooner or later, the market will have either Long squeeze or Short squeeze, with massive value of forced liquidations.

The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations

HODL is good and it is very good if you HODL good cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum.

HODL is good only if you hodl your cryptocurrency in your self-custodial wallets. If you store them on centralized exchanges, it's a risky practice.

[Darker45]

These past few days are very risky for leverage traders. The volatility has been really high. Huge liquidations must be taking place everywhere. The year came in with Bitcoin's price around $42,500. It shot to almost $46,000 just a day later only to quickly fall down even lower than $42,000 the following day. And then it started to recover well before it once again fell down. And then it went up again above $44,000.

As always, with Bitcoin's volatility, leverage trading is riskier. Hodling is smoother and safer.

[boyptc]

It can't be helped and stopped when many of them think that they'll win with trading. I don't encourage even my friends to trade when they don't even know how they'll make that much on it and how to read the market itself.

Even someone who's experienced will just simply tell to buy and hold and they're good to go with the upcoming bull run.

That's all they need to think of and if they wanna trade whether it's on the spot or futures, it's their money to play with.

[LogitechMouse]

This is one of the reasons why I don't want to trade anymore, especially on futures.
Just imagine, entering a few hours before the dump happens. Imagine those traders who entered a long position, just to see their position get liquidated a few hours later.

Feel sorry for those who lost millions of dollars because of trading, but that's how harsh it is. It doesn't care about your emotions, it doesn't care about yourself. They don't care about you whether you're a newbie or an average trader. As an investor who doesn't want to get stressed much especially when it comes to investing, I already stopped trading when I lost hundreds of dollars and chose to hold than trade. Getting profits might take longer, but that's safer.

Just HODL your assets, and set selling targets. Sell during the bull run, and don't buy.

[Richbased]

Inasmuch as I know that most altcoins are just pump and dumps, it is important we just invest and hodl Bitcoin for now because that's the only guaranteed asset with high level of volatility. The real reasons why most people trade their Bitcoin is just out of fear that the market might collapse due to one news or the other that they heard and it's even gonna get worst if spot Bitcoin ETF is not approved because lots of investors more especially newbies may rush to sell their coins with the believe that it's price will start dipping.

It is necessary we know that Bitcoin has stood the test of time as it's price is meant to fluctuate but that doesn't mean that it's gonna lose it's volatility. So all we need is to hodl our coins and be optimistic that it's future is gonna turn out to our favour. Just hodl as "patience is the stepping stone to Wisdom".

[$crypto$]

I haven't done futures trading for a long time because I know that when I do it with high leverage the risk is higher, however it is a big liquidation, people lose their money due to being too hot in doing futures trading, if you switch to spot trading then it is less challenging and rewarding. it won't be as big as futures, again there is a big risk behind that.

ONLY HODL is more appropriate and the best way to do it, let other people ignore our safe investments as long as we stay focused on this goal because after all this is easy investment advice and your assets are not subject to liquidation because they are not traded.

[Amphenomenon]

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL

While you're talking about hodling altcoins, I just want to put it out there that they're a gamble. Altcoins don't have the same fate as Bitcoin.

True but bitcoin has always been offering lesser risks but some still prefer to invest in altcoins and we know most of this liquidation definitely comes from altcoin and so just better to let them know even in the altcoins HODLing is still better though is just for them to do more research and hope they investing in the right one or just stick with bitcoin.
Also for me, HODLing altcoin as a shorter spam which can be 6 months to 2 years while Bitcoin for as long as you would like.

Everybody wants to become a crypto trader, even those with little knowledge. FOMO is one of the reasons for this huge loss because I believe it will happen to the majority of newbie traders who want to make it quick and claim a professional trader, which usually leads to huge losses in trading.
 
Holding bitcoin or a reputable altcoin you believe in after doing your research about it is the best thing to do because if you decide to follow the market movement up just to make it quick, you will suffer and will surely lose some money because you cannot afford to see your wallet go down if you do not take your eyes off the market and hold your coin for long. HODL is the best strategy to employ.

[Awaklara]

This kind of thing can be a lesson for those who are just learning to trade. There is a fact that those who experience losses are not only beginners but those with large capital and experience can also experience losses.
There is risk in trading, no matter how much is traded. it is the sum of the limits of our abilities. Don't go overboard, or even sell assets to trade.
we are all looking for profit. but how to profit from trading still requires understanding. holding or trading are choices we can make. The most important thing is to do it with your skills to make a profit.

[Jegileman]

This is not the first time people are losing a lot of money to trading. Some of this traders gets so confident that they believe in the market 100% to go their own way as planned. Little did they know that the market can take a turn at the unexpected time and still revert back to its normal position after such corrections.

Traders should learn how to use stop loss no matter how professional they are, the market does not know the trade of a professional trader and a newbie trader, when it comes to liquidating a trade, it happens to everyone that has place a trade within that margin.

It is better to hodl if you don’t have enough money that you can afford to lose to trading. If you’re in loss while hodling don’t be compelled to sell because the quantity of your coin will never reduce and with patience it will bounce back again.

[sujonali1819]

Even if you desire to trade just use spot trading or any other offering less risk while when using leverage use small leverages and don't be too greedy to use stop lost and take profit.

I stopped trading about 2 years ago. Even the Spot trading. What I do now if I start to be attracted by any crypto is just buy and hold it for the long term.

It was a very big liquidation that happened two days ago. But it's not surprising in crypto. And it is something expected during the events like ETF. It is always better to HOLD only BTC and USDT(stable coin) during these events. Holding/Trading ALT coins is very risky if you are not HODL it for the Long term.

[sunsilk]

True but bitcoin has always been offering lesser risks but some still prefer to invest in altcoins and we know most of this liquidation definitely comes from altcoin and so just better to let them know even in the altcoins HODLing is still better though is just for them to do more research and hope they investing in the right one or just stick with bitcoin.
Also for me, HODLing altcoin as a shorter spam which can be 6 months to 2 years while Bitcoin for as long as you would like.

That makes sense with what you've said. While there are investors that always look forward with the altcoins, that's because how they see the altcoins market to be a good part of this market to take some quick money.

As that span is likely how it should be for most of the altcoins that they want to hold. There is no doubt that Bitcoin isn't going to be beaten if it's about the longest term of holding it.

Many even considered it as a retirement fund whilst for some altcoins, maybe ETH is the contender but other than that if it's the reason for holding Bitcoin, it's hard to compare it with some altcoins there.

[adultcrypto]

As far as Bitcoin is concerned, I don't encourage trading, whether for beginners or professionals. If you have hit your maximum stash, then you can think of trading, but for the most part, it's just a hobby, so just hodl.

Even after hitting the maximum stash if there is anything like that, it can be lost within few weeks. Trading Bitcoin has made many people broke, the volatility is just so unbearable and the fastest of computer bots might be confused sometimes with the consequences causing unimaginable damage.

The title of this thread is simple and powerful and explains the way forward on Bitcoin. Holding is just the way to go and no two ways about it.

[Barikui1]

Fine, you illustrated how millions of dollars were liquidated but you also need to understand that people also made millions out of it, in as much as I am holding a good amount of Bitcoin, i still trade because in trading if you are good at it, you are good at price action trading, you will gain more than losing.
Another thing I really kick against is high leverage trading, it's the enemy most trader fail to realize till they have been liquidated.

[DeathAngel]

Currently the best thing to do is HODL. Obviously there is no point dying with your coins unspent but for now it is time to HODL. We are entering a period in Bitcoin specifically where it would be silly to start selling now. We have lots of very bullish events very close. Next week could be specifically bullish due to potentially ground breaking regulatory approvals. Don’t sell any for at least 18 months, the price will be much higher then.

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

In anything you're doing today concerning crypto, just learn to know the advantage and disadvantages that is involved in doing that, taking leverage is not as difficult and risky like making arbitrage trading, we must understand we'll the cons and pros of whatever thing we heard about before accepting to go for such opportunities, some may just be the very reason to wreck us down if care is not taken, we cannot just accept whatever thing we receive from other people online and apply them on ourselves without taking a safety risk measures to ensure they work out for us as intended, in cryptocurrency, I will tell you this first thing to learn how to do things by yourself and avoid centralized institutions.

[Orpichukwu]

We have different kinds of people in this crypto industry: those who are just there to buy and sell on a daily basis and go home with whatever profit they can grab, and those who just buy and hold for a long period until the accumulated amount turns out to be profitable to them. There are also those who are leverage traders, which is just the area they focus on and that's profitable to them, and they also run into losses sometimes.
 
If you want to make a quick profit from crypto leverage trading on this highly volatile asset, one of the best ways to make those profits is to multiply your holdings in just a few minutes. If you also want to lose it all, crypto leverage trading is the best place for you, as you can also lose everything with the blink of an eye.

[Churchillvv]

Even after hitting the maximum stash if there is anything like that, it can be lost within few weeks. Trading Bitcoin has made many people broke, the volatility is just so unbearable and the fastest of computer bots might be confused sometimes with the consequences causing unimaginable damage.

Probably there is something like a maximum stash. Since our cash flows are not the same, we will probably not have the same maximum amount of Bitcoin to acquire. If my target is BTC50 and yours is BTC30, this target is our maximum, so if eventually you meet up to acquire this amount of Bitcoin, you could then have a little amount of Bitcoin set aside for trading.

I do not agree with your point that trading Bitcoin has made many people broke. Every adult should be able to distinguish between when to stop and when to keep going. So if anyone loses money out of trading, it's not because he or she traded Bitcoin but because they refuse to listen to advice.

The volatility of Bitcoin is one of the features that makes it special or an investment, so for someone trading Bitcoin, he or she should be responsible for his or her actions, not blame the volatility of Bitcoin. Whatever damage is incurred as a result of trading should be solely the concern of the trader.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

True but bitcoin has always been offering lesser risks but some still prefer to invest in altcoins and we know most of this liquidation definitely comes from altcoin and so just better to let them know even in the altcoins HODLing is still better though is just for them to do more research and hope they investing in the right one or just stick with bitcoin.
Also for me, HODLing altcoin as a shorter spam which can be 6 months to 2 years while Bitcoin for as long as you would like.

It didn't take upto 2 years for TerraUSD ($UST), Luna and some other altcoin that were big marketcap altcoins to crash to almost zero. Some altcoins get launched with so much hype and they got rug pulled before the  week ended. Hodling alcoins are not better you're not guaranteed any profits with altcoins but you might be lucky with your picks. As said previously, altcoins are pure gamble, Instead of visiting the casinos something I play with some altcoins but I know what I'm doing is gambling and not investment.

When you're talking about proper research, I ask again what are you researching on? When looking at track records of the people involved in the project usually for those with so much potential before it comes to the limelight the price of the tokens are already too high and making profits for mostly the private Investors. Just HODLing should be said with only Bitcoin, you're guaranteed an increase (in some way) when you hodl Bitcoin, without any further development just because of the Halving effect you're set for life but altcoins doesn't have the same assurance.

One can even call it gambling and most especially the virtual sports game where you lose all your money in a matter of seconds. Just like you stated, everyone has their different approach to controlling their asset not everyone can do the hold till eternity game because some many crypto or Bitcoin users tend to prefer to double their holding quickly and make go with the profits they have earn knowing fully well the high risk involved.

[khiholangkang]

The best investment strategy in Bitcoin is hold and hold, the rest if you survive from trading that you don't understand the mechanics of well, in my opinion it is not recommended, but if it is for beginners who are still easily carried away by panic by the market situation, according to I think you have to be calmer and wiser in responding to market movements which are basically volatile, the aim of the halving, bitcoin ETF and the latest ATH must be stronger in holding bitcoin and don't be easily influenced by wild speculators.

[m2017]

This happened 2days ago, over $600 million has already been loss few days to 2024. Trading is hard and risky while using leverage makes it more risky especially using high leverages. One reason to avoid trading with leverage is that, these traders suffers more in pump and dump Schemes and also market Manipulations especially those traders who trade meme coins and other altcoins which are prone to this.

I consider trading to be no better than the lottery or gambling due to the incomparably greater risks involved. After a couple of successful trades, each trader begins to consider himself smarter than everyone else, but in the end this zero-sum game leads to the fact that someone still ends up at a loss. It is impossible for all traders to be successful.

The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.

To date, HODL still demonstrates greater reliability than trading, but only if we talk about bitcoin. HODL altcoins almost always leads to losses and therefore, altcoins should be disposed of as soon as it has brought at least some profit.

Even if you desire to trade just use spot trading or any other offering less risk while when using leverage use small leverages and don't be too greedy to use stop lost and take profit.

It is more profitable NOT to trade.

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.

Investing and trading are two very different things.

[Benedictare]

    HODLing as we all know is a strategy of holding our Bitcoin against all its volatility and fluctuation in price  and so until we are able to understand these we keep  on losing our savings.

   To start holding does not have a special time,the best time is now ,always and forever. A real  Bitcoin holder will always hold on whatever he/she has no matter how little even when the market is extremely volatile or crashes.

   When you hold Bitcoin for long-term of time,the price appreciate, because from history the price increase over time which makes it have an edge against  inflation because it's limited in supply protect its value from eroding away over time.

   The main reasons why you should be hodling andnot selling at any time is that Bitcoin can be the key to financial freedom since it has a unique characteristics of storing its values. The strategy helps investors avoid loss from short -term volatility and gain returns from long -term value. Remember holding brings abbout profit through value of assets kept in your wallet also income.

[Out of mind]

Because currently the market condition is very good and right now people are able to earn a lot of money just by investing in Bitcoin. Bitcoin has the highest growth compared to all other coins, and it is the highest ATH this year, and we can expect Bitcoin to reach $50,000 soon. Bitcoin is the best investment as it is a currency that always brings a person to profit level. When you keep investing in Bitcoin, your dreams will gradually come true, especially financial problems will be solved. But hodl is the best and best investment which will make you financially stable enough for some time.

[Zigabel]

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.

I have a mentor who once told me trading cryptocurrency is trash and isn't worth the effort but then people fail to understand probably because they have seen a few who traded cryptocurrency and made some good money from it hence it becomes a point for them to believe that trading is actually a way of milking the crypto market until they suffer huge losses as this then they will accept the fact that hodling is better.

Time factor is the only separating difference between a crypto trader and one who is hodling, these two persons ends up in good profit but this have relativity to the and their capital but Hodling is way safer and profitable so just HODL

[Barikui1]

You are dam right bro, holding is the best when it comes to trading cryptocurrency. sometimes we are mostly tempted to trade futures market due to low capital which brings in low returns on spot market, but we actually don't know that we are hustling backwards by trading futures market which will get us liquidated and we will start all over again from scratch.
One thing I have understand in life and my crypto journey is that slow and consistent progress better is than rushing, which wouldn't give you a better result on the long run.

[Patrol69]

I have been holding bitcoins since long before this news and have been regularly investing my bitcoins and holding those investments. In the long term I have invested and of course I have invested in Bitcoin. Now I have enough investment but I want to increase my investment more. When I have extra money I invest that extra money directly into Bitcoin. I invested when the Bitcoin market was relatively low and now the Bitcoin market is at a relatively high level, but I have not stopped my investment. Now maybe the price of bitcoin is the highest but after a few months we will see the price of bitcoin increase from that basically I am investing in bitcoin regularly and trying to hold it for a long time.

[ImThour]

I have said it so many times earlier, you just have to HODL and keep buying every red candle on Daily. Do not think more than that, that's the only trhing you need to do to win this market.
Also, Leverage is bad for mental and wealth. Do not spend your time in that.

[ajiz138]

Currently the best thing to do is HODL. Obviously there is no point dying with your coins unspent but for now it is time to HODL.

Next week could be specifically bullish due to potentially ground breaking regulatory approvals. Don’t sell any for at least 18 months, the price will be much higher then.

Yes HODL is the best way to save our wealth in the future because it is easier for us to do than trading using leverage which obviously if you can't control it will be more risky, so I will avoid any trading and stick to HODL in the long run.

The events in 2024 will be more and more, although recently there was bad news that the SEC agency was hacked for tweeting about the approval of the bitcoin ETF, it had a slight negative impact, but I was never worried because this was not really what was waiting for but the halving was imminent after that wait 18 months as stated by experts.

[Essential10]

Bitcoin should not be sold at this time as it is currently experiencing a bull market. Its price could reach an all-time high amid the upcoming Bitcoin halving. Selling now would mean missing out on potential future gains as the price of Bitcoin continues to rise. I believe Bitcoin has long-term growth potential and could become a mainstream asset, so don't want to lose future profits by selling Bitcoin now. I want to hold on to my bitcoin until it gives me the results I want.

[Issa56]

It's January 5 and those traders who focus on using leverage are already hitting huge losses when it's not even bear market.

Even when there is no bear, traders still lose money, most especially future traders. When trading, always manage your risk. Don’t think that because the market is stable or because we are in a bull run you are going to use high leverage when trading futures. Even during a bull run, always maintain low leverage. Anything can happen at any particular time that the market will go against your trade. So when trading futures, always maintain low leverage, don’t enter a trade with all the amount you deposit, just enter a trade with some part and leave the remaining amount to extend your liquidation, and always do your analysis well before entering a trade.

Trading is hard and risky while using leverage makes it more risky especially using high leverages.

I don’t discourage people when they come to meet me that they want to learn trading, but seriously, I do discourage people from trading futures. The risk is just kind of high, and lots of people are always interested in future trading, especially the newbies, because of the high reward in future trading, but most of them don’t think about the risk involved in it, and after losing, they will end up regretting why they started trading futures.

The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.

If you want to trade, then there is nothing bad about it, just avoid future trading, or use small leverage and use the little amount you can afford to lose when trading both spot trading and future trading. Altcoins are not to be trusted, even the so called strong altcoins are not supposed to be trusted, we saw the once that failed us recently, they are also strong altcoins. The best thing to do is to invest in bitcoin if you are planning to make an investment, and make sure your bitcoin is properly secured and your private key is stored properly.

[RockBell]

Aside from recognizing the benefits and drawbacks of cryptocurrency, one of the most important elements to comprehend before doing anything with it is the market. You can dive into any type of ocean. You do not simply leap into the ocean if you do not know how to swim. That is exactly how Bitcoin and the entire cryptocurrency works; if you dive in, be prepared to be lured in and lose money. When you have the advantage of knowing what to avoid, it will be easier to navigate.  There are measures that have to be taking into consideration in every involvement, one just have to be very careful in selection and in safety so many things.

We have different kinds of people in this crypto industry: those who are just there to buy and sell on a daily basis and go home with whatever profit they can grab, and those who just buy and hold for a long period until the accumulated amount turns out to be profitable to them. There are also those who are leverage traders, which is just the area they focus on and that's profitable to them, and they also run into losses sometimes.

People have different approaches to their involvement and already have a choice of what they want to do, which is one of the best ways to function in the crypto world. Having a choice of what you want to specify on is better that way. And the simplest is to purchase and sell if the price is low, and to buy if the price is high.

I'm also afraid of trading futures since I haven't tried it and don't think I will because I know that making money is risky, but I don't believe I'll take that sort of risk even if it is a place to set limits on how much you want to trade with. People might be greedy and wish to use a lot of leverage at times.But the issue is that when you profit from futures, you make a lot of money.

A good strategy you have there and of course if you have got the patience enough, it will definitely pay off after the halving when the main bull run will be taking place, most persons may not be opportune to be part of this Bull run probably because they will be missing out after selling off their assets at this point where it seems like there's a current bull. Most hodlers do lack patience especially for those who has got their eyes on the market and are always looking at the chart, their assets when stored in wallets online where they can easily access they tend to sell off at will and probably miss out at times


If you want to HODL for a Long time such that you will be able to make very good profit from your assets especially when you have got a good amount of money invested in it, then you may have to use cold storage and make sure to keep your phrases safe then after the halving and Bull run check on your assets and you will surely see something good.

[Bushdark]

Bitcoin should not be sold at this time as it is currently experiencing a bull market. Its price could reach an all-time high amid the upcoming Bitcoin halving. Selling now would mean missing out on potential future gains as the price of Bitcoin continues to rise. I believe Bitcoin has long-term growth potential and could become a mainstream asset, so don't want to lose future profits by selling Bitcoin now. I want to hold on to my bitcoin until it gives me the results I want.

It pays to hold but never easy decision. We can decide to hold for long and not still get what we really want after holding for so long.
One of the ways we can hold is by staking our tokens so that as we are holding, we can. As well be earning something that would not just make us to have the same quantity of tokens that we used to have. Crypto had been built in a way that would help us earn more even as we are holding that token we intend to keep for a longer time.

Many new traders who start trading with capital (without acquiring knowledge about trading) only aim to accumulate double the amount of capital. In the new state this greed starts trading with lust and without researching the market they lean towards profit. Eventually they manage to lose money. So I warn the newbies, never come to trade because of greed, there will be a high chance of loss. If you want to trade, you must have an idea about the market and the future of that coin, then if you trade on that coin, you will be able to gain benefits.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

You're stressing yourself when you trade while you could have just bought and hodl your Bitcoin and make the same profits. The highest earners in the history of Bitcoin, isn't the traders but the hodler and they do so with minimum efforts. All you need to hold is just to get a good self constodial wallet to use so your coins don't get exposed to hackers.

Personally, I don't like what stresses me unnecessarily, I have traded in the past and made few profits normally, recently, I stumbled on a trading site which I knew quite alright that it is a scam based on their pattern of activities, I traded with mined coins and was lucky to withdraw like $20 profits, then engaging again, they crashed my trades and left me with no other option than to deposit, which I ignored wholeheartedly.

The thing is this, trading is hard and stressful, let no one deceive you. sleepless nights, fear, pressure and restlessness will always be your companion as long as you've started a trade. trading is also very much profitable for those who understand it very well and make a living from it. Myself is not cut out for those stress for now, I simply hodl, rest my case and focus on other things that give me extra funds to maintain my living. Its also very discouraging that these trading newbies just jump into it without proper trainings and waste precious funds. Halving is near, the proper thing that anyone would do now is very simple, HODL! HODL! HODL!

[lizarder]

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.  

I agree more with saying bitcoin than crypto in general because when you say something in general there are far more misunderstandings. Basically, investing in Bitcoin will not cause anyone to suffer losses as long as they know how to invest correctly. Trading is much more difficult to do when one does not understand how and that is why it is better to invest rather than trade. But it comes back to each individual and if both can be done simultaneously it would be much better because it could open two directions to achieve profits.

Bitcoin has the strength to survive in the long term and the Hold concept is usually the best choice for people who hold it because if we are able to be patient until Bitcoin reaches the next ATH then the investment value we have from Bitcoin assets will increase.

The thing is everyone wants to become trader without knowing the key note and important aspect concerning trading, that is why most people easily lose their money at cause of wanting to make huge profits or to double their money will result them to entire lost. Sticking to bitcoin is more advisable maybe they can gradually engage themselves with DCA, with DCA they can be to accumulate whatever amount of bitcoin they wish to than involving in trading and I still encourage holding.

There’s no wrong if you want to trade as long as you have what it takes to be a good trader, but if you are still a beginner who just wish to make quick profits, then let me tell you that trading is not suitable for you. Settle with hodling, the profits are still promising as long as you have the patience and persistency to hold, and the consistency to DCA every time you make a spare money from your source of income.

[_BlackStar]

In a different thread - I said futures trading is fine if done with the right strategy. Problems will really arise when very greedy traders want to get rich overnight. They know the risks – but it would be a shame to say they are trying their luck. High leverage is suicidal - but if it's 2x or 3x, it's probably still safe.

I have tested the strategy especially when I have USDT in the account - but still, the risks also need to be considered. Avoid using high leverage in futures trading - it is a correct recommendation so that you do not lose all your money. To get a sense of security without much risk - become a holder and store your bitcoin in a wallet that gives you full custody.

You are correct I don't hold anything about anyone who wants to trade but the problems that before any could finally fund their account they should be able to know their trading capacity, not just by joining today and tomorrow they claims to be expert and why they are not after sometimes they will come back here to start larmenting about their mistake or how much they have lost in trading.
To me if anyone approaches for trading i will say just follow your mind because trading isn't that easily but to me i will prefer you just invest and hodl to save your precious funds and reduces tension from you.

Trading is not a good choice for beginners but sadly, many do this believing that they can make it right but the results are disappointing.
Just hope that the next generation will have the time to analyze their position and be able to see their capabilities because it is hard to assume that we can make a good profit if we lack of knowledge and surely it ends up losing.

In fact, many old traders quit trading and are now becoming investors and holders because they know and based on their experience it was the best option to take.

I definitely agree with you and from point of experience, holding is the best option for any begginer trader and until they have gained more knowledge about how things work in the world of crypto, and then they will now graduate into trading. Some people can still profit from trading being a newbie trader if you play by the rules, but the problem is in that there is a high percentage chance that newbie traders in the market will surely be greedy at the start, and thus lose money.

[Luffygroove]

Just a heads up, Bitcoin's halving is coming, signaling a potential bull run. Enjoy the ride, but don't get too greedy. Good risk management is key; it's not about going all in recklessly. Be smart, find a solid strategy for this season. For those playing it safe, BTC is a reliable bet. Diversifying your investments is wise, but be cautious with meme coins; they come with risks. If you choose to invest, be aware of the risks and only invest what you're willing to lose. It's about being savvy and ready for potential shifts. Let's navigate this together with caution and wisdom.

[mamesso]

It is important to have extensive knowledge about cryptocurrencies and everything that goes into crypto trading before getting directly involved in crypto trading. Trading is closely related to short-term fluctuations, it is important to understand market trends and short-term price trends if you want to make a profit in crypto trading. It is highly recommended to invest money you can afford to lose in trading as the crypto market is very volatile. When trading is not successful, you need to change plans to maintain capital stability. Hold is the best way out to make a profit when the price starts to improve.

[Peanutswar]

It depends on how much you can risk, there's a lot of people right there who keep holding and making trades, with this market volatility people keep making a trade to gain profit they want to make an immediate profit on it, somehow people don't have a time for making a trade so they make holding but of course, there's a limit on this holding there's a take profit and stop loss too even though it takes weeks, months or years still ideally is to have it to make sure you will not burn your asset again instead you gained because of being greedy you wait again for months or years just to take back your losses. Once you left behind after this halving you might wait again another 3 years just to make the halving and another pump.

[cryptoaddictchie]

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.

Well leverage trading isnt for beginner and really pose a potential risk. Ive tried it out before and I like how money heing printed when you gain profits from the trade with huge margin but on the other note, its also scary as youll get liquidated. Ive been in the past for so many times and balancing the win and lose I guess its more incline to the losing side. Better to be a spot trader and jump from tokens to tokens to gain profits than doing that.

[Getmon]

We observed the danger of trading with leverage, but many individuals are willing to take the risk for the chance to become wealthy. Everybody dreams of becoming wealthy and the fast upturn in Bitcoin made numerous individuals rush in with the belief of a great opportunity.

The novices of Bitcoin are tempted to FOMO. Little trading knowledge brought these individuals misfortunes instead of wealth. It is alright to get liquidated if the traders understand what they are doing and are using it with little amounts of money. HODL is the most secure with our Bitcoin investments.

Bitcoin is very easy only if only investors gets to understand it,  hodling Bitcoin is just the only way to easily make profit, what is just required in hodling is patience.  The reason why trading seems very difficult for some people is because they want to make money from trading very fast which , which they have decided not to take their time to learn about trading . The quick to get money mindset has really deprive people from making profit because they lack patience.

Trading has become very easy nowadays compared to before that trading was very complex and not easy to understand. Now exchanges are making trading to be more easier so that investors and new users of their platform can learn fast and understand how to enter trades without much difficulty. Holding is one of the ways we can benefit from the market if we know how to buy a better coin. There are so many coin projects in the market and for we to benefits from the market, we need funds to buy and accumulate some tokens so that we can profit from them has the price of the tokens keep going bullish.

While leverage trading puts you at a bigger risk than hodling, still beginner traders take on suicidal to trade with leverage as it can give them quick and high profits once they end up with successful trades.

However, the problem of these beginner traders is that they trade mostly at loss than in profits, hence hodling could be the best option for them as it can still offer them significant profits in the end, and would become even higher profits depending on what kind of coin they are hodling and how long they’ve been hodling before they decide to sell.

[Agbe]

Hodling is always the best option among the two. And those who bought Bitcoin when the price climbed to $47k these days have loss small but they still have the hope that before this year will end they gain back their profit and that is why hodle is the way. The risk in trading is much more than the investment. Because investment has less risk and in fact if you can hodle for years then you will never lose in investment. Trading is not everyone because not everyone can trade but investment is for all but you have to know that basic knowledge, elements and information of investment.

[Vaculin]

These past few days are very risky for leverage traders. The volatility has been really high. Huge liquidations must be taking place everywhere. The year came in with Bitcoin's price around $42,500. It shot to almost $46,000 just a day later only to quickly fall down even lower than $42,000 the following day. And then it started to recover well before it once again fell down. And then it went up again above $44,000.

As always, with Bitcoin's volatility, leverage trading is riskier. Hodling is smoother and safer.

Trading with leverage will always be risky most especially for those who are not skilled on it but only rush to trade because of the bigger profits waiting ahead. With that, the bigger the chances that you will only lose your capital than expecting to double or triple the profits. However, hodling can sometimes be the safest option most especially when the market is not favorable to trade or when the market condition become unstable and unpredictable.

Trading is not everyone because not everyone can trade but investment is for all but you have to know that basic knowledge, elements and information of investment.

Having the basic information and knowledge of investment matters would guide you through your time as an investor. The knowledge you gain while preparing to invest is an added advantage to you because that could give you clues on how the market you are about to enter is; otherwise, you would have no idea what you are going in for if you did not have knowledge of it. It is not all about investment, though, and having the details at your fingertips matters as well. So therefore, when trading, you must have knowledge of the market and the current trend as of when you want to enter it.

Long-term investors can be likened to hodlers. They have long-term goals of holding compared to short-term investors, who are likely traders with the daily trading strategy of collecting profit within a short time trade. Since it takes skills to trade, not everyone can withstand the daily trading encounter of losses. In that case what you have said about trading not being for all and investment for all is quite alright.

[Pokapoka124]

People have been brainwashed into thinking there's more profits in trading than hodling, they consider hodling to be boring and I have seen people saying trading is a way of making passive income from Bitcoin and people believe them without understanding what passive interest income is.

You’re right. I think people have become accustomed to the idea that Bitcoin can make one rich overnight. That is why the idea of buying bitcoins and hodling for long term does not excite people as much as the possibilities of gaining profits from day trading. They believe Bitcoin to be magic money and want to make multiple gains on their investment in real-time. And if they do not know how to trade, they will look for trading bots or signals to buy. Some may even invest their money in high yield investment scams.

Moreover, trading with high leverage is a big risk waiting for him, well when you take a long when the price of bitcoin actually sort then this will be a big loss especially with high leverage, how big losses will occur but I myself always avoid trading using leverage.

Indeed, HODL is the best way at this time and this is an option where everyone can do it except trading must have skills.
It is better to choose safe than fast profits but the risk of losing is also faster, I prefer to invest because I avoid the risk of losing and this does not want to happen what I do so HODL is the best way of most people.

Not everyone has that patience to actually HODL and that's why they always see trading as a quick option to double their sats and the worse thing is that people who trade actually make it look simple as if it's an easy thing and this is what influences the newbie to see trading as some kind of luck game in which you can play and get lucky to be successful but trading is a totally different game because you will have to learn and be atleast a pro  before ever thinking of making profits on a steady out of trading.

Exactly, this traders do not just make it look simple but make it sound like if you're not trading then you're not doing anything right. not just the traders even social media influencers make trading sound so attractive that most newbies only thing of trading even with good knowledge of the market and how it works.

They show off the luxurious lifestyle that makes beginners wish to be like them that have taken a 1000 step on it and a newbie with almost zero knowledge wants to trade and make same profit like the role models.

What this people show to the public is absolutely different from what really happens in the real trading.

This may be a good time to buy bitcoins before bitcoin halving because after bitcoin halving the market will definitely go to a good place i.e. there will be a possibility of pumping. But if you can't invest and hold bitcoins, you can't expect good profits. If the holding is timed and I can sell that holding in a potentially pumping market, there is definitely a potential profit potential. So holding Bitcoin and investing at the right time is a very important issue.

[Zanab247]

Currently the best thing to do is HODL. Obviously there is no point dying with your coins unspent but for now it is time to HODL. We are entering a period in Bitcoin specifically where it would be silly to start selling now. We have lots of very bullish events very close. Next week could be specifically bullish due to potentially ground breaking regulatory approvals. Don’t sell any for at least 18 months, the price will be much higher then.

If you can hodl in this period that is making the market price not to be stable for long term hodlers and short term hodlers than to continue hodling their coins till the right time to sell come before they can visit the market to take profits.

 Based on the condition the market is right now, it show that bull run is no longer far from the market, maybe the bull run will surely occur before the end of this month so that those that invested in the past will use the opportunity to earn from their investment.

Trading is good if you know what you are doing there not just to go there to start losing money because some people always have this mindsets that once they began trading they will start doubling their money, however it's also good to taste the other side of cryptocurrency because with a complete knowledge they can be able to guide someone how to go about with their crypto journey because most people that doesn't know how to trade do not know how risky is the market less until they began to learn know what it takes to be called a trader. Holding is simple, what they needed is just a reliable trusted wallet to store in their investment.

[Mpamaegbu]

The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.

So, what are the trusted altcoins to hodl? The top 10 on the list? I don't think so. We've seen top listed coins dump to no return. The only people I can encourage to hodl altcoins will be those who realize the massive risk in hodling altcoin and monitoring all their social media handles so as to be in the know when any FUD comes up. Otherwise, inexperienced folks should steer clear of ALTs investment and hodl only Bitcoin. To state is clearly, hodl Bitcoin at this period. The dynamics might change after 2025 and it won't be favourable to even hodl Bitcoin then, who knows.

Don't be deceived, not all altcoins will rally up even with Bitcoin halving. Most of the altcoins will dump. So, let no one make you believe that every shit token will have a strong showing once the bull rally starts.

Even if you desire to trade just use spot trading or any other offering less risk while when using leverage use small leverages and don't be too greedy to use stop lost and take profit.

Risk is risk. Everybody should know that. Spot trading won't give the type of ROI Futures will give you and I believe that's why traders choose the other. Everyone to their risk level.

[NNRR]

In hope of high profit, many investors do future trade with high leverage which is very ricky. Sometimes they make a lot of profit and sometimes they lose their money because of liquidation. So I think I agree with your words because those who want to trade if spot  trading then their rick is very less and the chance of losing all their money together is very less unless they see good projects and invest then if they have patience they can come out with profit sometime.

Of course, there are a lot of losses, especially if market conditions are unstable and the trading pace is very frenetic, such a negative balance is a fairly big risk especially if you set high leverage. Personally, when trading, I prefer to trade spots safely by taking advantage of market conditions, where the more the price moves, the more profit can be made from trading. If the price has not moved significantly, like the title of the OP post above, just HODL our assets and wait for a while. which is appropriate if you really want to execute it.

[Rockstarguy]

Trading is not a good choice for beginners but sadly, many do this believing that they can make it right but the results are disappointing.
Just hope that the next generation will have the time to analyze their position and be able to see their capabilities because it is hard to assume that we can make a good profit if we lack of knowledge and surely it ends up losing.

In fact, many old traders quit trading and are now becoming investors and holders because they know and based on their experience it was the best option to take.

So many beginners just feel trading is as easy like the way they think, and they think it is something they can do without making any effort to learn about it. Beginners just feel the most important thing in trading is to have capital to start up and it will surely bring fort good profit. Trading is not something that can be done just with a little idea, the necessary things that one is supposed to know in trading, it is expected for a beginner to have it. I have always say their is no shortcut to make profit in trading, people needs to understand it very well.

Investing is better for people who find it difficult to learn about trading.  in investing what one needs to understand is to have patience and understand the volatility of the market, that profit can't be predicted when to get it because of the market can't be predicted. If one is able to understand the market and hodl good profit can be made by investing bitcoin.

Don't set high leverage on your trades especially if you don't know what you are doing since futures trading is really risky since it can liquidate you especially if you are not careful enough on your position and you are always not around watching your trades. That's why I always prefer spot since even if the market drop so bad still we have a choice to hodl our bought coins and we can't encounter any lose unless we sold our crypto out of panic.  People especially those new to industry should not trade on futures because the risk is so high and to many unimaginable things happen there so best resort for them is to practice on spot because we are still in control of our funds and just like OP said we can hodl it until we can.

Just holding is the best thing to do when it comes to investing in bitcoins because you will have all the authority to decide when you will sell them no matter how sooner or later unlike that kind of trading which has lots of risks involved and you don't have full control of it especially when it comes to selling your bitcoins whenever you like. Unlike those people who are keen and careful when it comes to their bitcoins, they even bought some hard wallets in order to keep them safe and have total control of their crypto assets. This is how it should be for everyone because that's when you can finally say that it is your bitcoins and not theirs. After all, you will have the full decision on whether or when and where to sell it.

After all, you will have the full decision on whether or when and where to sell it.

Hodling has always been the easiest way to make profit in bitcoin but this seems difficult for some people because what they want is quick profit. When it comes to investing,  one can target buying in the dip and decide to invest it for a longtime and this will definitely yield good profit.  Hodling is very easy to make profit if only one has the understanding of exercising patience.  In bitcoin investment one can always make decisions of waiting to get target .

[Saint-loup]

As far as Bitcoin is concerned, I don't encourage trading, whether for beginners or professionals. If you have hit your maximum stash, then you can think of trading, but for the most part, it's just a hobby, so just hodl.

All these losses are because some people just panic at every little shift in expectations, whereas they know too well that they are gambling yet leverage with what they might not afford to lose.

Since we are still anticipating halving, the advice is to just hodl, which the supposed majority of us here already know or are doing already.

I don't understand, you advice people against trading but you recommend them to not sell their Bitcoin before the halving? What is it if not a swing trade? You can't predict the future dude, so don't say it's safe or less risky than trading to make such bet, because you don't know how the market will react in the coming months. And you shouldn't expect whales to sell their bags after everyone, they have to do it before if they want to find enough liquidity.

[Distinctin]

Trading becomes more impressive since it offers fast earning profits as long as you know how to trade. But if you do trade just to avoid getting FOMO, then you are obviously in the wrong path. Trading demands higher risk, so it demands higher skills as well so you can manage and sustain its risks.

However, when you fail from trading, you can always go back to long term hodling. Although the profits are not achieved short term but definitely the upcoming profits are definitely worth the wait.

[odunybiz]

In hope of high profit, many investors do future trade with high leverage which is very ricky. Sometimes they make a lot of profit and sometimes they lose their money because of liquidation. So I think I agree with your words because those who want to trade if spot  trading then their rick is very less and the chance of losing all their money together is very less unless they see good projects and invest then if they have patience they can come out with profit sometime.

Just holding is the best thing to do when it comes to investing in bitcoins because you will have all the authority to decide when you will sell them no matter how sooner or later unlike that kind of trading which has lots of risks involved and you don't have full control of it especially when it comes to selling your bitcoins whenever you like. Unlike those people who are keen and careful when it comes to their bitcoins, they even bought some hard wallets in order to keep them safe and have total control of their crypto assets. This is how it should be for everyone because that's when you can finally say that it is your bitcoins and not theirs.

Almost all investors wish to hold their bags especially one filled with BTC. This is because most investors know the potential in BTC but most sell out when they are in need of money. Imagine you need a money urgently for a project and you have tried your best to get this money but it doesn't work. Sometimes you have no option than to look into your bag and sell some of your coin to make some cash to settle your bills.

[Zanab247]

Currently the best thing to do is HODL. Obviously there is no point dying with your coins unspent but for now it is time to HODL. We are entering a period in Bitcoin specifically where it would be silly to start selling now. We have lots of very bullish events very close. Next week could be specifically bullish due to potentially ground breaking regulatory approvals. Don’t sell any for at least 18 months, the price will be much higher then.

Since the bear run is still flowing in the market and it is a season to buy and hodl to watch for the price to increase to your satisfaction before you can sell to make profits and to get prepare for another bear to come before you can buy again and hodl.

As you can see now, hodling is the best choice in this season if you want to be smile in the future because many coins has started developing red light which is a sign that bear season is still on but the way the market price look like this morning, it show that bull run will surely take place before the end of this month of January for hodlers to make profits.

I won't be so sure about that, to be honest. I am waiting for another noticeable correction. We always have observed such several months before each halving. And I have confidence that similar thing will happen this year as well. Only after such a correction we can say about the beginning of a bull cycle, which will be huge, in my opinion.

[encryptogon]

Holding Bitcoin should be the ultimate goal of everyone. From a historical perspective, it is always beneficial to hold Bitcoin for a longer period. BTC prices over the years have increased substantially. If a person can hold Bitcoin for a decade, he might become very rich.
Bitcoin halving is around the corner, and from past trends, it is easily predicted the price will increase after the halving. At the moment, the price is fluctuating, and these conditions are not good for trading, so it is better to hold.

[Etranger]

Bitcoin halving is around the corner, and from past trends, it is easily predicted the price will increase after the halving.

Just increasing is not enough. To make a profit on holding requires not only to hold but also to sale at the right moment. And when exactly this moment will come nobody knows, but everyone decides for himself. I am sure the price will rise up after halving. But I also make some predictions and plans when I will exit the position, based on the price analysis I make.

[Huppercase]

This happened 2days ago, over $600 million has already been loss few days to 2024. Trading is hard and risky while using leverage makes it more risky especially using high leverages. One reason to avoid trading with leverage is that, these traders suffers more in pump and dump Schemes and also market Manipulations especially those traders who trade meme coins and other altcoins which are prone to this.
The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin since we have seen alot of altcoins which fail to meet expectations.

Did you see billions of volume that is been trended on futures daily? That is to tell you that people love trading leverages than spot trading because of the quick profits. Many of them have less amount of money but want to feel the vibe of holding bitcoin profits and because they don't have the means, they sort to do futures trading.
However, many of them are clouded by greed, if not for lack of contentment and greed, why will you even be doing 25x leverage? They want to drive Lamborghini with their $20  balance.

Even if you desire to trade just use spot trading or any other offering less risk while when using leverage use small leverages and don't be too greedy to use stop lost and take profit.

A trader that knows what he is doing is supposed to go above 10x max, even that is risky but that's the max I think a trader should go, anything above that level is not trading neither will I called it gambling, that's an act of losing money deliberately because with 10x leverage, a 10% decrease will liquidate a trader and that is possible on a daily bitcoin candle, it's stupid to even think of going for 10x leverage.

Also you shouldn't be disappointed or give up in bitcoin or crypto investment if trading hasn't work for you just try to HODL bitcoin or at least do more proper research on the altcoin you choose to HODL while if you are still have desire to trade, reduce the amount you use in trading, try to avoid risk when necessary and continue to learn to improve your skills and knowledge about trading.

This has been discussed and will continue to be a topic of discussion, I just feel that people will do whatever they wish to do with their money irrespective of what people view them or think about them. Spot trading is one the simplest ways to make money not the easiest way because some people does lost money there as well and will called trading a scam. Even in future trading, we have people that makes money from there just that the number is small compared to people that loss to liquidation.

[Stable090]

There’s no wrong if you want to trade as long as you have what it takes to be a good trader

Seriously, I don’t discourage people that are interested in trading from trading. If you know you can face all the challenges of trading, then you are free to trade. I know trading is risky compared to when you are holding, and trading is difficult to learn, but I am sure if you dedicate your time to it and really want to learn it, then you will do that. If you don’t have enough money, it’s always difficult to hold. Some people do end up trading, so they will be making money from trading and sustaining themselves.

it show that bull run will surely take place before the end of this month of January for hodlers to make profits.

When I saw this part of your post, it sounded so funny to me, because I don’t know maybe you don’t really know what a bull run is, I don’t know how sure you are that the bull run will start at the end of January. I think you are the first person to hear that the bull run will start in January. Most people who are predicting the bitcoin bull run are all saying that after halving, we should be expecting the bull run, no one said the bull run will start before halving.

I mean, especially for those of us who trade certain meme coins and altcoins. We know that this token fertile ground for this kind of thing. I also bought some alcoins but only to take short profits, it's very rare for me to hold coins for a long time.

If you invest in altcoin for a short period of time expecting a small amount of profit, you will definitely not be able to make a profit. You must increase the power of patience if you want to profit, or you will never be able to make more money. First of all you need to know that both short term trading and investing are risky so you don't take such risks which can result in losing your money. However, if you invest for profit, you must increase your patience and avoid altcoin investment because it is risky, so if you want to invest risk-free, you must invest in bitcoin for a long time.

[cryptodude]

Before entering the cryptocurrency market it is very important to have a broad knowledge of cryptocurrency and the intricacies of the market. Crypto markets are highly volatile. Markets will fluctuate all the time. But if you think you will profit daily by going up and down then it will never happen. After few days of good profit suddenly you are stuck with whole wealth. So I would say just HODL. 👍👍

[Nheer]

Trading is not a good choice for beginners but sadly, many do this believing that they can make it right but the results are disappointing.

Beginners should be discouraged from trading due to the risk involved, but they may still be persuaded to try by success stories they hear about others who have made money trading. Not that they can't succeed at it, but we know how beginners tend to disregard any guidance telling them to study before taking any action. I wouldn't mind if they could complete the learning process before beginning to trade, but I'm sure they would choose to forgo learning in favour of starting right away. This would never end well for them, it would be like their killing themselves with their own hands if they traded without knowledge.
 
Trading is not for beginners, and even experienced traders find it extremely difficult because it involves a lot more work and knowledge than simply investing and holding. It also takes a long time to learn because there are many features that must be fully understood, which can be difficult for beginners.  It is recommended that beginners stick to investing and hodling since it would be safer and easy for them.

Hodling is surely the safest route for beginners because understanding and having an in-depth knowledge about the cryptocurrency market and the behavioral pattern of coins is key to successful trading and it is usually difficult and takes a lot of time to achieve and also requires a strong mindset that can handle any kind of outcome which is unlike the beginners as they are only focused on making profits.

it show that bull run will surely take place before the end of this month of January for hodlers to make profits.

The bull run is around the corner but i have never heard of any predictions of having the bull run in January, most predictions i come across still predict it to be months away or even a year. The next bull run is expected to happen after the arrival of bitcoin halving and we are yet to witness bitcoin halving and January is just a few days away from its end so if your claims were to be right we should be witnessing bitcoin halving already.

Make rightful claims backed up with proof so before making any statement you are required to carry out proper research especially when talking about the arrival of bull run. For sure no one is certain about the exact date it will begin and all talks are merely speculations.

Read this post about when bull run is expected and here is an update made by @1miau as at January 21st, 2024 which shows that bitcoin halving is less than 100 days away (87 days and some hours away).

[Popkon6]

@ Op Investing in altcoins is full of risk over the long term, we've seen thousands of altcoins get wiped out of the market and empty portfolios. So I never like to invest in Altcoins and the risk is high and the benefits are low, investors get extra greedy and invest more and more in Altcoins for more income. And later they see a little profit, but wait for more profit later and end up facing heavy losses.

And the best if investing in bitcoins is that the risk is low and the benefit is likely to be high. Since the past time, thousands of very trusted investors have earned huge money from Bitcoin. Just invest patiently and accept risk wherever risk is applicable. At the moment the bitcoin market is down so the bitcoin market will improve due to bitcoin halving. So you must invest to take advantage of this opportunity because there is very less chance of loss when investing in Bitcoin.Bitcoin is best suited for long-term holding only.

[Ricardo11]

All of us should be more motivated towards long-term bitcoin holdings. Trading should only be done by those who have superior trading skills. Trading without skill is more likely to lose. Those with no experience or knowledge of trading should always hold using the DCA method. And we should always invest that money, without which we can live our daily life and in any danger we can get out of danger without that money, i.e. we can solve our problems without breaking the invested money. Always research about trading and holding.

[Y3shot]

The best way to avoid lose of money is just hodl. Doing this it is very certain that the market will increase whereby profit can be derived. The only thing one needs to do is just learn to have patience,  with patience it is easy to make better profit in hodling. We are in the season that the price of cryptocurrency is increasing, this the time for hodling to make better  profit.  The little dips this period should not be a reason to panic and sell, hodlong is the only way to achieve the goal of making profit.

Yes, investing in altcoins is risky so it is best to stay away from investing in altcoins. However, if one has a good understanding of the market then one can invest in altcoins in partial amount like (80-90℅) in bitcoin and (10-20%) in various altcoins. But to stay safe and risk free you must invest in Bitcoin. If you invest in Bitcoin and suffer losses due to market volatility, you can recover quickly if you can patiently HODL for a few days. But if you suffer losses by investing in altcoins, you won't be able to recover easily. So it is best to invest in Bitcoin and hold it for the long term.

[Lamkuthang]

I also just adjust to the rhythm of the market game. they come in and place my bid on the market and as soon as it goes up a little and they start selling I sell again. if that's not what we do, we'll just be respectful spectators. The incredible performance of BTC and alts kept everyone busy.

[Patrol69]

Many new traders who start trading with capital (without acquiring knowledge about trading) only aim to accumulate double the amount of capital. In the new state this greed starts trading with lust and without researching the market they lean towards profit. Eventually they manage to lose money. So I warn the newbies, never come to trade because of greed, there will be a high chance of loss. If you want to trade, you must have an idea about the market and the future of that coin, then if you trade on that coin, you will be able to gain benefits.

Everyone trades with the expectation of profit, you will find no one who trades with any other expectation than trading with the expectation of profit. The OP has discussed holding here and the term hold doesn't go well with trading but with investing. 

In crypto trading you don't hold your coins for a long period of time because in this type of trading your objective is to sell your coins at any time if you get a fixed amount a certain amount of profit. But in case of investment, the matter is different, investors try to hold the investment for a certain period of time before investing in a long term plan and many hold their investment for a long time. The purpose of both is to gain, but the path followed by both is different, ie one is temporary gain and the other is relatively higher gain over a long period of time.

[Lukmanfirdaus1]

The safest way to play crypto is to just keep accumulating, I don't like spot trading, especially high levy trading of 125x for example is very crazy. I can't understand how anyone could dare to use 125x in Lev trading. I myself rarely trade either on spot or on leverage. from year to year I just keep accumulating, if a bear season comes I'll double the amount I used to buy, that seems like the safest way. but it comes back to each individual.

One should never engage in futures trade because futures trade investors only face losses. In my opinion hold and go long sell when the bull run starts and don't buy. According to this strategy only those investors who hold will be eligible to receive the benefits.

[Gormicsta]

You couldn't be more correct, and yes sometimes in the journey of crypto, the best option would be to BUY and HODL, you can agree with me that the most successful people in the crypto world are those that has mastered the act of BUYING and HODLING, I'm not saying traders are not successful in the crypto world but we must come to agree on the fact that if you HODL Bitcoin, you don't stand any chances of losses, other tokens might be different but Bitcoin has proven to have stood out with the previous and current progress so far.

When you HODL you don't fear dips, on the contrary, you even pray for the dips sometimes because it's another opportunity to BUY more Bitcoin.
I really do not see any reasons to why I should go ahead to trade and risk loosing a fraction of my Bitcoin when I could simply just HODL and watch my figures grow overtime.

[Games.Bitcoin]

The higher the leverage, the riskier. Again the higher the leverage the higher the profit. The bottom line is that you will never get rich trading futures. Even if you can take some profit for a short period of time, the market will suddenly liquidate you with a big dump or pump. So I would say hold on as much as you can and hope for the future. Of course several times the profit is possible.

[Cryptoprincess101]

Trading is not a good choice for beginners but sadly, many do this believing that they can make it right but the results are disappointing.
Just hope that the next generation will have the time to analyze their position and be able to see their capabilities because it is hard to assume that we can make a good profit if we lack of knowledge and surely it ends up losing.

In fact, many old traders quit trading and are now becoming investors and holders because they know and based on their experience it was the best option to take.

Trading isn't that bad though but it isn't advisable because as a beginner that isn't too conversant with how trading works and to be observing some signs and signals before trading gives so much stress and calculations and one can get into too many losses in the process so buying and hodling is always the best as one just needs to invest your money on Bitcoin, use the DCA to buy more Bitcoin from time to time then just sit and watch your investment grow.

[vs2014]

There are many investors who got in hours before the dump and then got disappointed before it stabilized. But you should verify the position of those who have been holding for several years only with the intention of selling. Moreover it is emotional to think that you will earn millions of dollars by trading because you will understand the amount of loss here when you start. So you hold on thinking that you will not get a profit very quickly and sell using the wind in the bull market.

Trading Bitcoin will not be as profitable as imagined. You can ask traders who have experience in using Bitcoin as a traded coin.
Profits from trading Bitcoin are obtained, but they are only a small part of the profits obtained by Bitcoin holders who set return targets.
Spot trading is less hassle and less risky than leveraged trading. I agree. However, in this type of spot trading, I also think that if you choose Bitcoin as the coin being traded, you will not get a profit according to the target, smaller than long-term holding.

I also bought some alcoins but only to take short profits, it's very rare for me to hold coins for a long time.

Tokens or coins with a mechanism like that may indeed provide multiple profits, especially with the particular level that we use. They also optimize the pump and dump versions for some of their trading needs, especially in Futures. This makes it very possible to get more rpofits. But in fact, betting like this is not for everyone. Maybe only for professional traders who are experienced and do it as a job every day. Because if for newbies or anyone who is not used to and competent at trading like this, then our money will run out very easily and quickly. So, there is no denying the high risks involved in this kind of trading.

For this reason, holding on certain coins is the main choice for beginners and lower-risk takers because it will be safer than future trading or leverage. So, however, we can each proceed in areas that we are capable of, not to force ourselves on things that are too high a risk for our abilities.

Well, altcoin trading pairs are more profitable than Bitcoin, based on my experience but the risk is too high knowing that highly volatile coins may dump drastically and sometimes never recover which certainly makes you lose if it happens. Unlike Bitcoin, where if you just hold after the dump, we can still see it coming back. But if we are an impatient trader, whether it is Bitcoin or altcoins we still need to learn how to hold because trading is not all about buying and selling, holding is also a part of it. In fact, sometimes it happens that I hold for a few days waiting for the recovery and it works, I'd never lose any but instead, I make a profit.

Bitcoin is not good for trading in my opinion. The placement of Bitcoin as an investment asset is more targeted.
Do you mean that BTC/ETH trading orders are more profitable? It's true that it could be more profitable, but I'm not interested in BTC/ETH or other BTC/altcoin trading pairs.
If I think about it, the hold concept is not complicated to put into practice with a lot of patience, but the altcoin chosen to hold is not an altcoin that follows trends.

It is always a big risk to start up cryptocurrency with no understanding,  it is just an easy way to lose because cryptocurrency is very volatile and when their is no knowledge about it, it will definitely end badly.  It is very important before any plans of investing cryptocurrency it is better to seek for knowledge because without it, it is impossible to gain profit from any investment.

Yes, when you hodl your BTC in the solid wallet like electrum wallet which is the best wallet to hodl BTC for long period of time for the bull run to occur before you can sell to earn at the moment and, it has some seeds phrase you need to save well not to allow people to discover them because the moment someone have access to them, your BTC will be unsafe in your wallet.

You can see that there was some little improvement in the crypto market yesterday, that made the price of BTC to hit $44k and it look like it will reach $50k before the end of this month but if you want to achieve good profits just ensure you continue hodling your BTC for the bull run to occur.

[Kelvinid]

When we say HOLD it doesn't mean it will be forever, sometimes we did this because it was needed. And this actually necessary when investing Bitcoin as we hold during price correction and sell them when we get the satisfying price. Holding is not difficult but for some people, this could be a big challenge for them and why? As we can see, not all investors become successful in crypto and that is because not are willing to wait. Impatient people doesn't like doing this, they'd rather prefer to lose some $ than just waiting. Imagine, if we all knows how to hold and patient, we all become rich already but the opposite things happen as only a few people manage to do it while others are giving up when crisis comes.

When we say HOLD it doesn't mean it will be forever, sometimes we did this because it was needed. And this actually necessary when investing Bitcoin as we hold during price correction and sell them when we get the satisfying price.

Hodl/hold is not necessary but we need this to make a good profit in the future and we are all know that bitcoin will give us a good profit if we will hold it for long time,  but there's a time that when we hold the temptation will want to distract us comes up to our mind that we will withdraw or sell but we will need to follow our aim which is to get more profit. Cause if not then one thing for sure we will end losses.

Might not be forever but it will be for a long time, if you want to make a profit and like this period the price is taking correction will benefit a lot of people bitcoin is already 47k today, and am sure it will get a new price very soon. and those who have waited patiently will make their profit people will still wait and still not sell because halving is still coming and that event will still have its effect on the price, I don't think anyone will be satisfied to sell now, they are still another price to be accomplished before selling it, not everyone will make it the same business, especially does that did not wait, and if you invest and you can not wait then what is now the point of investing in the first place because when you even talk of safety holding is the best.

Undoubtedly trading is one of the best way to grow your capital within short time. But you should know that, there are some time when Market is so complex and dengerous. That time anyhow shouldn't enter in the market even if you are a good trader. Cause sometimes you actually can't predict anything about market. And with taking a large liquidity, could be drain your balance so was happened with those traders, that's sad. Yeah holding is also best way if you are holding good altcoins

[Tahid12]

That's shocking but sad reality of trading. Before future trading or others trading , you must keep in mind that you could loss your money badly in trading rather than any single profit. And with this mentality, you need to join trading. Cause situation can change anything. Spot trading is fine in my opinion. It works, kind of holding way. You can't loss until you sell your altcoins. And i give priority to holding instead of trading

We will continue to see those stories about getting liquidated because they've set their leverage quite high. 2x is what they've said to be a safe haven but there goes the higher leverage for higher profit. Well, you'll learn the lesson there when you can't take the heat. And having that said, if you can't handle it anymore, get out of the kitchen. There's even a better strategy that everyone can do and it's causing no hassle and it's the easiest and that's what the title says, HODL. Those frustrated traders, you can shift and come join us to become good ole' HODLERS.

Using leverage isn’t that bad if you think you’re capable to make it work. But if you are still in doubt and has no better experiences on trading leverage, I suggest just settle with the less hassle and less risky method, HOLD. That way, you won’t lose your funds in such a risky situation, knowing you’ll end up liquidated if you have set your leverage too high. Although it’s good to practice leverage at some point, but do it with high caution.

It's for brave heart and risky peeps who knows what they are doing, it's the most risky way of trading IMO. You can be liquidated in no time but can be way more profitable as well in short time. Experience and knowledge is the key, but it's not all about that.

For those who incapable of doing such things, better to do spots or just HOLD, and keep stacking just like everyone is doing.

[Uhwuchukwu53]

The thing is everyone wants to become trader without knowing the key note and important aspect concerning trading, that is why most people easily lose their money at cause of wanting to make huge profits or to double their money will result them to entire lost. Sticking to bitcoin is more advisable maybe they can gradually engage themselves with DCA, with DCA they can be to accumulate whatever amount of bitcoin they wish to than involving in trading and I still encourage holding.

Yes basically for the beginners with less knowledge on trading even to those who have been in the system but still find some difficulty in trading, DCA is always a good way out,  to accumulate and make good profit at the end of holding period. The benefits of hold is more than one selling off to get quick profit at short time period inform fo trading, most important as it All even low income earners to engage as much as one is able to keep the holding and at first put in some emergency fund to avoid quick withdrawal if the invested fund it give greater profit at the end than selling,  also allow beginner to grow it knowledge on investment and holding  as the risk if loss is minimize since us long term holding.

The best bet now is to HODL even if you are investing in altcoin find some trusted ones and HODL while if you reduce risk entirely just stick with bitcoin.

Investing in altcoin is not the best thing to do; there is a 99% chance that you will lose your investment money in altcoin. To save yourself emotional damage, it is best to stick with a bitcoin investment with the money you can afford to lose. Before you invest in bitcoin, you have to understand that bitcoin is a long-term investment, and you need to keep emergency funds that will help you solve your unforeseen problems. After you have achieved that, you can now start to accumulate bitcoin with the DCA strategy, either weekly or monthly, depending on which is more convenient for you. The DCA strategy will allow you to accumulate bitcoin even when the price is increasing and decreasing, and you will not be concerned about buying the bitcoin dip.

It's best to settle with the strategy of just holding. Many have traded before, be it on spot or with the futures but it's best to have no headache at all and holding is the best option. There's still risk on it by having paper loss but it's not as heavy as you're going to lose your entire fund with leverage that many think is a nice way to gain. For those that knows how to play the game in futures, it is a good way to gain more money but those that can't, it is certainly best to stick with holding and buy whenever you have some money to spare with.

Before entering the cryptocurrency market it is very important to have a broad knowledge of cryptocurrency and the intricacies of the market. Crypto markets are highly volatile. Markets will fluctuate all the time. But if you think you will profit daily by going up and down then it will never happen. After few days of good profit suddenly you are stuck with whole wealth. So I would say just HODL. 👍👍

It is always a big risk to start up cryptocurrency with no understanding,  it is just an easy way to lose because cryptocurrency is very volatile and when their is no knowledge about it, it will definitely end badly.  It is very important before any plans of investing cryptocurrency it is better to seek for knowledge because without it, it is impossible to gain profit from any investment.

The foundation of every investment is knowledge and experience. You are not expected to engage in any kind of business or investment without accumulating knowledge first, which later on becomes your experiences. Same with trading, you are not supposed to trade without prior research and no gained experience in trading, otherwise you will only waste all your capital.

However, if one finds it hard to make successful trade, then hodling is the key. That’s way less risky and stressful, and if you are just patient enough, you will reap massive profits in the end.

Experiential knowledge corresponds to reality. Agree with your idea because especially in bitcoin investment. Those who are new to this field can seek the advice of the experienced and even get an idea of the past prices. But market behavior (price movement) is dependent on demand. A long-term holding strategy should be adopted to utilize your capital efficiently.

[Zackz5000]

If you went to be successful in Bitcoin investment you must be able hodl for a longer period of time 4-10 years.
I see people investing in short term as traders those that are unable to hodl for a longer time.
So it is always advisable when investing in Bitcoin one should think of long term that's why is good to have other source of income so one won't be able to temper with his/her hodling incase of there is any emergency you could early settle with your other income and not selling out your hodling. If you also don't have enough money to accumulate more Bitcoin you could use to DCA strategy which help you to buy small small either weekly or monthly.
In summary just HODL.

An ideal investor must have a long-term hold, only long-term holding applies to Bitcoin. If you observe you will surely understand here that every investor has reaped huge benefits from their long term holding. Of course, long-term investment is most important if only to gain more benefits.

Bitcoin sure can be called an asset for a long term, however, it is also good for short-period trading. Fluctuations in its price will not be as significant as in most altcoins, but Bitcoin is considered a more reliable asset, in which it is not so scary to get stuck. In this case, you always have the safety net that in case of unsuccessful trades, your asset will automatically turn into a hold one.

Holding is one of the ways we can benefit from the market to get a bigger rewards. The Crypto market is big enough to make us millionaires and that is if we are ready to benefit from holding to see the price of Bitcoin hit 100k. Sometimes when I see some persons talking about holding, I just choose to laugh because it is never easy to hold even when you are seeing price falling you still have no option than to hold. I think it is only the rich that can hold comfortably no matter how long it's going to take. The average man or poor people can not withstand some draw down because the panicking would be too much.

Agreed...! Holding cryptocurrency is a good way to make money especially if you do it right. Bitcoin might reach $100k and holding onto it could help you benefit from that growth. But it is not easy to hold onto your investments when the market is unpredictable. Seeing prices drop can be scary and it is hard for most people to keep their investments during those times. Rich people might find it easier to hold their investments but average or poor people might struggle because of financial worries and stress. So it is good to think about your financial situation and how much risk you can handle before deciding to hold onto your investments.
