God damn it, "long term" is such a stupid meme. Admit it, you wanted to get rich quick and once you realised you are too dumb to swing trade you suddenly became a "long term" loser.



Such idiocity.



You think Dan Balzerian held anything "long term"?



Long term is for losers.

i'll bet most people if they attempted to 'day trade' would've sold all the moment it hit $1000 and sat around for months afterwards.





HAHAHA, obvious in retrospect only if you are dumb maybe.



Right now Ethereum is dipping, I can tell you right now it will dip to about $150, possibly more to double digits like $95



If you aren't shorting Ethereum right now and then buying the dip at $95-150 you are just plain dumb and hate money. So sorry for you and your family HAHAHA, obvious in retrospect only if you are dumb maybe.Right now Ethereum is dipping, I can tell you right now it will dip to about $150, possibly more to double digits like $95If you aren't shorting Ethereum right now and then buying the dip at $95-150 you are just plain dumb and hate money.

June 25, 2017, 08:08:33 PM #8 I am a long term holder, so tell me, have I been an idiot for seeing my wealth in Bitcoin grow 500-600% throughout the years? Or are the idiots those that desperately keep trading and end up selling below the levels they bought at, and buy back above the levels they sold at? I think that's quite an easy thing to answer to right? I do some occasional trading to benefit from wide fluctuations too, so that profit comes above the gains I made from holding.

June 25, 2017, 09:02:43 PM #10 Very important point that you miss here, is the fact that the more experienced people here have coins and funds that they specifically use for trading purposes, and enough coins in their cold wallet(s) for long term holding purposes. Only noobs focus on just one of these two options while in reality, both can be done simultaneously without any problems. If idiot means that holding Bitcoin allowed me to earn more money than I possibly could ever earn without Bitcoin, then sure, call me an idiot.Very important point that you miss here, is the fact that the more experienced people here have coins and funds that they specifically use for trading purposes, and enough coins in their cold wallet(s) for long term holding purposes.

That someone reporting in with a big smile in his face



I bought in at 4$ and still holding, but I obviously diversify and hedge at critical times. For example, I sold a reasonable portion of my BTC a couple of days ago at 2700$ but I already set the buy orders at 1500$ to buy them back. Swing traders are idiots even if they manage to be profitable because it's a lot less stressful to be a long term holder than anything else. When you're going for the long term you pick a coin with really good fundamentals and legit reasons to generate a massive pump, you hold on to it for a year at least. So basically you make one good trade per year and you x10 your profits. you then are not even required to look at the charts every day. you have a shit lot of free time to enjoy life. so yeah, no need to boast about being a swing trader because we all know how stressful that is, your life sucks unless you're a no-lifer.

Agree with Mr. Hyena, Op think ; people who holds for long term won't sell any bitcoin when bitcoin reach higher price.

People know to sell small amount of bitcoin obviously, but not all of their coins or even a half because it will worth more and more in the future.

That's what I thought about "long term".

While I understand some people like the "fun" of day trading, it's time consuming and frustrating, and I personally like to just HODL to keep track of Bitcoin's progress. It has also been quite profitable for me, as I held starting from the doldrums of 2015 all the way to today. Sure didn't lose anything yet.
