Hold and trade which is best for you?

[omori]

In cryptocurrency trading, it is normal that there will be a period of profit and a period of loss. If you experience a loss then you need to learn from it so that the next time you trade there is a chance to make a profit. Because you have suffered losses before. It depends on why and how, but you will take the trade again. If you train by gaining knowledge from here for a long time, there is definitely a chance to benefit.

Also, you need to spend only the funds you are willing to spend.
Otherwise, your depos will come and fly from you like hot cakes.
Stay responsible while doing both holding and trading.

Apart from bitcoin, I don't believe any altcoin can give someone a huge profit and that's why instead of diversifying your portfolio to a lesser profitable coin, just stick to bitcoin alone. Take example of Etherum, when bitcoin was 56k+, Etherum then was 3,600 but currently bitcoin is at $89k+ and Etherum is $3,090. That shows a price decline and those who invested in Etherum at 3,600 will be regretting currently. One thing with these altcoins is that they move up slowly and dip fastly.

Well in that you are completely right, there is no way to refute your logic, in fact what is visible does not need glasses, of course I speak of Eth as one of the alts that I consider the safest, there are others that for me turn out to be much riskier to invest in, personally I would only tell people to invest only in btc, because even though it goes down in price, I know that in years it will always have a new ATH, such is the example we are living, we have not yet reached the 4 years of normal cycle for a new ATH and already new impressive prices are being seen.

Just you wait and see when BTC DOM falls off what ETH, SOL, and others would offer to you.
PNL of these is going to be crazy, in my opinion.

A very helpful method or strategy for people who have small capital to invest, and many people also do the same as one way to have assets with small capital.

Bitcoin is always the main choice, but this strategy can also be applied to other coins such as the coins mentioned here. many people have succeeded in implementing this strategy, especially for people like us who have small capital.

I'm sure that if we do a survey we will realize that in the forum there are many people entering the world of trading with little capital, few only those who do it with a large capital, few with a medium capital, so these things that we read are very focused on the majority of those who do trading, I started with little capital, I know many who start with 10usd, and it is little, because in trading it is little money, but I say something, if you get to zero quickly you have to keep putting more money there and insist.

Better to start small and continue big.
Otherwise, you may lose lots of your funds on learning.
Just slow and steady would bring you better results, in my opinion.

         -      I do the same thing while I trade; I have other assets that are held for the long term. You can combine them as long as you can manage them correctly; just do it properly. Now, if you think you can't handle them correctly, don't combine them.

You only need to focus on one so that you can do what you want to achieve in these situations. Because the end result of both is the same, and that is the profit that it can give us as holders and traders.

Nobody dismisses you in the ability to do both - if the PNL is good enough for you - just go for it.
And you would reap the results from both if you have much-needed experience and knowledge.

Holding is more peaceable than trading because when you hold you have nothing to worry about provided that the market is increasing, but most times when you trade there's every possiblity that you would lose your coin, though you are sourcing for profit but might not end up having the same volume of coins at the exchange account.
Though some people may value trading because they think is much profitable than hold, while some people values holding than trading because they have less stress to think about some fundamental and technical analysis to trade.

Yes, it is normal if we still get losses. It is impossible that we always get profits. But if we already become professional or experienced traders, we must know how to minimize the potential losses. And we knows the best strategy to optimize the chance of taking profits. So, we don't often to get losses, we more often get profits. When we improve our knowledge, we must be more aware about the potential profits. We also become more understand to avoid potential losses. Finally, we can trade with a more effective way if we keep increasing our knowledge and experience.

A professional trader can minimize losses and increase profits with many strategies they run. They have strong analytical skills and accuracy in predicting prices.
There are also many strategies they use by diversifying into several potential coins to trade, I do that too.

Of course, those who have good trading skills will be more focused on trading than holding. Because holding refers long time, which is much hard for many. That is why they are more focused on trading than holding. If a trader gains good skills in trading-related matters and focuses only on trading, then he will definitely be able to profit much. On the other hand, for those who do not have trading knowledge but want to be profitable from investment, holding is a good way. If a holder holds Bitcoin for a long time, he can get several times by the Bitcoin investment even after a long time.

In investing, we often choose whether to trade and hold, largely depending on our ability, experience, overall objectives, and other factors. In contrast, trading is more active process to make money if you know what the market is doing and are able of reading the patterns accurately. But this is also too much of a dedication and a great risk management to be carried out in an impulsive manner that can yourself get into into. If you do things right trading can be lucrative in the short and long term.

Conversely, those of us who are long term in our approach will benefit from a holding step before we reach our results as we don't need to be spending our time constantly checking in to the market. So buying low isn’t bad, and time can be a best friend for asset development like Bitcoin. Maintaining emotional and financial stability is best done by choosing a method that fits our limits and comfort on the investment journey.

being a trader is difficult because we must have expertise in making analysis and strategizing by always focusing on monitoring the market so that we do not miss the best opportunities. While for those who do not have the skills in trading they can choose to become a holder, by holding bitcoin and other potential coins for a long period of time.

That is true. We must have a strategy or a trading plan that we should follow because trading is difficult. It's very risky since you are taking a multiplier so that you can make big profit with such a small increase of price. However, winning is not easy because there is no 100% win rate in trading. But if you already have a trading plan that you have already back tested, there's no need to keep watching the chart from time to time especially if you have a running position. It's a bad habit and can lead to an unnecessary decision.

Having jumping into trading with little capital though it's a stepping stone in getting to earn something big but at start, your profits will be little; like trading with $10 for instance can fetch you profit of $2 or else your trading on leverage and a trader takes like x25 then you could be making bigger profits but leverage is very risky, as a trader can be liquidated at anytime.
In trading it is obvious that the bigger your capital, the bigger your profits.

Also on investing/holding, you could start with a little amount and likely use the DCA pattern to grow your portfolio as time goes on and a Holder will see his profits on the long run depending on the asset he choose to HODL

It's true, when we operate we have to be a little decisive, for example, even applying a strong leverage is not something I can say I feel capable of doing or that I am sure of even if the chart is trending , I think I would not do it because basically things are very difficult to operate when you do not have confidence as a trader, because I can Lose everything in a moment, and then I would be bored, I think the maximum leverage I could do is x5 and I would be with my heart in my hand , it is too much adrenaline.

I have been trading for about 7 years, sometimes I also experience defeat in trading because maybe I made a mistake in making analysis and developing the wrong strategy. We will not always win 100% in trading, sometimes we will also experience defeat and suffer losses because the crypto market is very volatile and sometimes the crypto market changes and does not match the strategy we have planned, that's why sometimes I change my strategy.

Yes, if in this case a trader or holder only acquires the basic knowledge required to hold, then he will be able to earn huge profits by holding for a long time. But those who trade by research or analysis also have a relatively high risk. Though there is a possibility of getting regular money from those traders at the same time there is also a possibility of losing big again. What an investor chooses to do will depend on himself.
