If I had money to invest I would get the discount coins now. . . Only neo is in the green, maybe I could trade neo for something good that's on a major dip. But who knows where the highs and lows will end ! That's the risk I guess.

Nice post and i agree with your points and i think patience is the key to success in cryptos, buy at nice price and then hodl is absolutely crucial in crypto trading, thanks for sharing your nice thoughts with us, Stay blessed

Yaa bro !!

Well now is a good time to look into Masternode coins. If you can get some at a good price before a run up then it's becomes a part time job that you ain't gotta clock in for.

I've been on the fence lately, if I should sell my SBD now.

On one hand, the price is alright considering it's pegged at $1.

But... I don't wanna be a weak hand and sell when it can go up to past $10 again!

Decisions decisions haha

What's going down?! :))
one day in the crypto world seems like a week in the normal life, it's so intense!
can't wait to see what tomorrow will bring!
cheers @stackin

You know friend, I honestly think Steem will be up at 10-15 between summer and the end of the year⭐️

we must learn how to work in long-term.

you are amazing sir ..great

One guy  n youtube said trading is fun, but he would have made 10x more if he just hodl’d

Agreed. I would also argue against trying to time when you enter the market. As long as you're timing the market with respect to your exit timing, now is as good a time as ever to enter the market. Buy and hold has historically outperformed other investment strategies imho and will likely follow suit for cryptos.

Holding right now feels like

yo look into that smartcash - www.smartcash.cc -

This is a nice article

Keep calm and steem on that's the best mantra right now

Going to follow your posts because Im new to the the cyrpto world in fact I arrived from watching a youtube video of some one called luke who was talking about the censorship over in youtube so i had no idea until a few days in what this platform was really about and that was new years Eve. Cool way to start 2018 and now I find myself sharing this drop on to everyone I can. Thanks for the explanations they do say the teacher appears when the student is ready. Well I sure am ready :)

Best way to hodl is to do something else like spend time with your family and you'll be amazed at how the time passes, lol!

Definately a roller coaster! Its very tempting to sell once u see your investment flew up and suddenly theres a dip! Sadly I sold all my neo -'panic selling'.... and to see where its going now is frustrating! But there are always  opportunities, I guess being patient and learning to have that strong hand is part of the game :)
Thanks for ur post!

great post, i agree with you: you should hodl your positions, they will rise

I'm hodling hard right now! These red candles still scare me even after 2 years in the market lol I never buy in to hype coins, unless of course I happen to be in one before it hypes ;)

I guess these periods will really test now whether the "investors" are really investors. Some "slight corrections" have been -50% and lower. But as an investor, I really agree that the panic fever can be a great buy opportunity. I remember trying to trade cryptos earlier on when it was trending up well. I've traded in other markets, and it's been going well there. But with the volatility of cryptos, an investor's approach is much better here.

On a side note, it may be tempting right now to throw some standard "advice" like "Buy low and sell high". It's something said a lot as advice, but in reality that means you have to predict lows and highs, which can actually contradict advice of trying to time the market. It sounds nice, but in reality trying to value a token or coin right now is enormously speculative, so deciding what a low is really hard to say. NEO was at an all time high at $80 at one point for example. But if you bought it then, you'd be quite happy right now. Just because the circumstances seem to suit the advice, doesn't mean the advice is good or practical.

If you have been in crypto for more than 60 days, you should still be 3X higher than your buy in price.

Yes, hold the strong hand and think of the big picture.

This is excellent advice, in my opinion. I've been trying to get a friend of mine who is in the crypto trading arena to stay calm and try not to have a nervous breakdown.....but you know how it can be. The "roller coaster ride" , as you so aptly named it, has got him in a right state.

the race never promised to be swift and friendly soo equal to the task no panicking like you said
 
holding strong

very good and helpful information, thanks for sharing

Not a game for weak hands for sure.

Can be scary when you start out and get greeted by a dip but if you have done your homework you know you have invested into the future.

If not, do your research on your investments

totally right.  you have to be prepared with the roller coaster ride that is happening with cryptos.  it is just as simple as betting on what you can afford to lose just in case.

Doubled down on a couple of my cryptos during this drop. A lot of them are down a lot, great time to buy in! Love your work
