To HODL or to Rock n Roll - or both ?
The date was 18th of December in 2013.
One of Bitcointalk.org members would write
WHY AM I HOLDING? I'LL TELL YOU WHY. It's because I'm a bad trader and I KNOW I'M A BAD TRADER.
I do not know if this phrase mean anything to you, but it does mean a lot to me.
To HODL (Or "Hold On for Dear Life", as it was used later on) is a very dear word to me. I believed in it, I trusted this new technology very fast after getting to know it. I started learning about it in 2017 and I never doubted it. Even then, I was confident that as technology evolved, its impact would only grow, touching more aspects of our daily experiences.
But maybe this word really HEDL or HELD me back from all the other opportunities that came across and I just let them go. I could have bought some more BTC, I could have bought BNB when it was so low, I could have done and most of all LEARNED so many more things, if I would look at a few different directions.
Don't get me wrong. I love this community feeling, I am a strong, mindful, and aware HODLER - most of all proud!
But it is not bad to explore all our options and see what fits us better!
I have started a brand new trading learning journey.
I hope I will be able to make it. As I hear, it will take me between 12-18 months to be able to go in the field, out there but I want to do it.
At least I want to learn how to do it and then I can decide if I will practice it or not.
In the meantime, but also after my journey reaches a destination - I will still be a HODLER and damn proud of it!
What is your opinion about this?
p.s. I have been hodling $hive, $leo - but also other tokens that I keep in the hive blockchain and at the moment I have no plan to sell them. But I understand that it is not bad to make profit and take profit too from time to time. After all, this is what finance is all about.

holding is good when the market is bear and expecting a sudden chance when the price will up. I guess more of being accustomed to the HODL technology, we should be able to grasp the chance of taking account of greater opportunity .
Patience has a unique value,by large. You have it, came to know by this post.
i am wrong too, i hold as long as project is alive and running, never cashed out hives...i only sold neoxian and oneup when curators and communities died
It’s better to sell when it goes a bit high then buy again when it is low
I don't know how to time trades either so I buy DCA and I sell the same. When it goes up 50% I'll sell a bit of it and sell again when it goes up further. I'll stop selling when it corrects.

For you, I got hodling and buying and repeating!
Hold most of it! But it’s nice to take some profit to have cash for buying other necessities. You could always buy back when it dips!
Have a good day!
