Long term Bitcoin holding or short term trading

[SmartGold01]

What is your opinion? Long term Bitcoin holding or short term trading which should be chosen.

If I have the means to have access to plenty of cash, I will not trade Bitcoin, the pair isn't profitable unless you tried it with margin or go leverage. I will just buy it and keep for long term, it will remain in the wallet where it will be safe keep for the time been until I'm ready to sell it or if I have gain a significant profit of the investment.

Trading Bitcoin is even a stress to me, because you know very well that Bitcoin price don't stay in one place, that's an opportunity to buy and hold instead of running after the market trying to get 5% daily profits that you may end up losing when you get caught by market manipulation.

This is actually a choice because some people may want to go for Long term holding which gives them peace of heart without having to risk much, there risk is just to stay away from the market and watch till their desired years it could be like 6 to 12 years or even more. When trading it's gives you the chance to lose more if you aren't that perfect with the market and because you can't control your emotions you would ends up losing big time but holding you would sell when the years is reached or when you think you have accumulated enough profits.

Long term hodling and short term trade is literally two most common ways Bitcoin investors used in their accumulation. Though, so many people don't really opt for trading, due to the risk involve, but that doesn't mean that those who are into it are not making profits either. Let's be sincere, they are making profits, as well as losses, but they choose to do it because it's their choice. As for me, I prefer hodling for long term. I haven't shown any interest in trading at all. Maybe it's because I don't have the time to learn it, but it's obviously not risk related.

And just to add, inorder for someone to hold for a long term, then should be other avenue where he or she can get cash, i.e having other sources of income. Because if enough money is not coming in to sustain an investor thereby providing the basic things for survive, then the long term investment might have a little set back. But like I said earlier, long term investment has always been my thing. I might go into trading some day, but it's clearly not for the now.

For one who knows about the 4 years circle of Bitcoin halving, long term is most people's choice, but it's all done with manner intelligence to invest during the bear market and sell during the bull run.

The method of investing in Bitcoin during the bear market and selling during the bull run has been the perfect method most investors have been applying to their Bitcoin investment, and it seems to be working out for them in making huge profits from their Bitcoin investment.

For instance, those who bought bitcoin when it was $30k last year, are hodling it strong till now. I think many would like to sell their Bitcoin assets by next year when Bitcoin skyrocketed to $100k. If peradventure Bitcoin falls in price in upper years, during the bear market, they will invest in Bitcoin back using the DCA strategy

Most expert investors place more emphasis on long-term holdings in order to reap sufficient profits from Bitcoin. Others opt for short-term trading that allows for increased profits but also high risk. There is also no guarantee that you will get enough profit by holding it for the long term as Bitcoin is a volatile asset. However, Bitcoin past price history makes me highly interested in long-term investment and profitability. After its inception in 2009, Bitcoin value was zero, but its demand has been increasing over time and has generated a lot of hope among investors. But I like to keep Bitcoin as my first choice for long term investment because if you consider the price in the last 14 years you will see that its value has increased by more than 40 thousand times which is not seen in any other commodity. So I would recommend long term investment over short term investment in Bitcoin.

What is your opinion? Long term Bitcoin holding or short term trading which should be chosen.

I stand by your choice because it's a good one. I also have tested this and spent time in short-term trading and it was not worth the effort, I was taking risks, and kind of always under pressure and stress to make a profit or to avoid loss. The market is just too volatile and I was also a newbie at that time but if proper knowledge and analysis are done before starting short-term trading you can bring good profit and avoid loss as well.

But I don't want to be spending too much time on charts and analyzing what I think I'm not good at so I preferred Long-term holding and I have been accumulating BTC from the $28k and I am making a good profit on my investments but you must have good capital to make a good profit otherwise you won't be happy with results.

Bitcoin will be profitable if you keep it for the long term because in the long term you will not be afraid of price reduction and you can also experience different events due to which making profit will become easier. For the short term there are so many altcoins and you can choose that if you want to take benefit quickly but in this case you should also be ready for loss as anything can come about.

If you are an experienced trader then you can also think about trading but newbies cannot do trading with 100% profitable outcomes therefore they should invest in Bitcoin with the amount that they can afford until the timing of bull season.

Alright, I can agree with your others sentences but I couldn't agree with that There is no guarantee that you will get enough profit by holding bitcoin for long-term, because if a holder really set the target with analysis properly then most of them will get enough profit some times they can cross the expectation.
I also love to hold for long-term. And from now I have experience of trading and the holding both and there I haven't get enough profit on short-trading there is amount of loss is high and on the other case my dca investment was on track and I am seeing I have already beyond my expectation now I am just waiting for the next bull season.

Personally, I choose to invest in the long term. It is true that Bitcoin is a very volatile asset in the short term, but if we look at the history of Bitcoin, we see that it has one upward trend in the long term.

This makes me prefer to invest in the long term through the holding and DCA strategy. Of course, this does not prevent creating some short deals if the conditions are favorable and you know the right time to buy when it falls and sell when it rises. Although I do not advise you to do this except for those who have experience in trading.

What is your opinion? Long term Bitcoin holding or short term trading which should be chosen.

I want to gave my opinion here on the base of two facts. And those are one Newbiew trader and the another one is Professional well skilled Trader.

Now if you are a newbie in this trading world and have very short knowledge of trading analysis then you can chose bitcoin investment for long-term by checking it's halving periods records and as well as the bull-season record. So that you will have the idea when you will need to invest and when you will need to sell the coins.
And if you have already skill on analysis then trading is for you because short-term trading required lots of knowledge about trading like the fundamental analysis and the technical analysis.
And I usually do the long-term trading with DCA method because I don't have much technical analysis skills.

Hmm, why people mostly emphasize on the long term investment rather than trading to make higher profits? Because they want to save time, also trading requires a lot of effort and additional skills and experience still the risk remains high. A long term investment is reliable and requires a basic understanding of the asset only, and you can enjoy almost risk-free returns if you are in a good asset like Bitcoin.

True.
Long term investment is the true definition of passive investment and earning. It will not eat your time and yet you will have good returns if you are on a good asset. Trading is not risk free;
It comes with some emotional imbalance;
It is only profitable if you have mastered it very well. So, use any method that works for you to earn. But if you are not a trader, don't just risk it and take it like a gambling, you will lose money.

When you are not into trading, it is good to look things long-term when investing with Bitcoin. Of course, you can do both strategies just like many are doing since they are good at trading and at the same time they are also holding BTC and other top coins into the future. What is good with cryptocurrency is that you can choose which path you wanted to take and make sure you are continually learning on things so you won't be left behind. Now, with the many possible rewards in this industry, there are also many risks and one must make sure to properly manage them well. Again, you can be a trader, a holder or even both.

Trading can make profits in the short term. so Bitcoin trading can be profitable, while long-term investment in Bitcoin is more profitable. Therefore, according to your risk strategy and the profits you set, you will choose whether you want to be a trader or an investor and the amount of trading or investment.

It is possible to make a lot of profit through trading but for this one must have a long experience and be an expert in trading.  But investing for the long term does not require much skill and experience.  All that is required in this case is the inability to control oneself and patience.  If one watches the market repeatedly after long-term investment, he may lose patience when he sees the market going down and sell it at a loss.  So you must have the ability to keep yourself under control.  And if they are, holding will be much safer and profitable than short term trading.

Prefer long-term Bitcoin over short-term or day trading.

Investing long-term we only need to practice patience and be able to get through all the obstacles about the market crashing, as long as we don't panic when it goes down it becomes an opportunity for us to keep accumulating at the lower price.

With long-term, I don't have any heavy pressure, just need to wait for years to see profits.

Trading is too complicated and it can be nervous when you can't determine a decent profit, let alone trading futures you have to be prepared for all the risks when the market crashes normally this will be a tremendous panic.

Trading can make profits in the short term. so Bitcoin trading can be profitable, while long-term investment in Bitcoin is more profitable. Therefore, according to your risk strategy and the profits you set, you will choose whether you want to be a trader or an investor and the amount of trading or investment.

Trading may be profitable for you for a while but you have to take high risk. You may get back the profit along with the capital after some time but you should not take that risk. You should review the level of risk and expect long-term investment returns accordingly because considering the unexpected risk should focus on depositing bitcoins weekly or monthly from disposable income.

What is your opinion? Long term Bitcoin holding or short term trading which should be chosen.

Both have it's advantages and disadvantages depending on the situation and different factors, but as a conservative investor, I would always go with the long-term Bitcoin holding.

I've tried trading already hoping to earn some profits in the short-term, but it didn't end up well for me. Long-term investing for me is the one that works and especially now that I'm in the mid-20's still, I believe that time is on my side as well. There are some investors that are expert in trading and they prefer doing it rather than holding their Bitcoin because they believe they will make more profit if they trade. On the other hand, there are some who are like that prefers a less-risk and less-stressed approach which is to just buy, and just hold it all.

At the end of the day, it will all comes down to what works for us. What works for you might not work for me, and vice-versa. What's important is that we make profit in the end.

Exactly. Investment is the best option to take than trading in bitcoin. As you said. One can just invest and relax for the whole of his live and might only come and check if the movement is favourable because you have to know that to tell people how it is in the movement. But in the trading, it might even give you sleepless nights and stressful day. So for one to have time to do other things, it's good to invest in bitcoin and keep it for a long time. And you need to sketch a time frame for the investment.
