How long do you guys tend to hold your alt coins/meme coins? A few days? Weeks? Months?

t. bought a few days ago with 5 figures and I'm up 20% today (idk if I should sell now or possibly roundtrip the gains)

>altcoins
kek

I don't hold a memecoin for anything longer than a week. 3 days at most usually. Things move quick.

>>60607030 (OP)
You're supposed to buy in during the bear market and then hold for 4 years.

>>60607034
some of them are good. Hype's done this much in 90 days. I know one guy that went all in and he's pretty cozy rn
>>60607041
do you watch 4H charts? When do you know when to sell? RSI? Or just buying dips and selling when it bounces?
>>60607046
I thought that's when we're supposed to go all in on bitcoin

>>60607030 (OP)
I have price targets and I hold them until they are reached and then I sell in stages. It's a pretty basic strategy really.

>>60607030 (OP)
Why not sell 30% then if it dips use that 30% profit to buy more, or just add it to btc?

>>60607030 (OP)
im about 7.5 years in

>>60607068
how long do you wait for the price targets? It seems people end up bagholding when doing that unless it's a monthly timeframe maybe
>>60607069
that's the goal, but wouldn't add to btc at this point until we hit rock bottom bear market. I don't think we have long.

>>60607030 (OP)
Decades.

the only reason to buy altcoins/shitcoins/memecoins is as a capital gains loss off-set for your large BTC stack. when you sell you owe taxes on gains but any losses offset that. so if you are going to pay $5k in taxes anyway you might as well gamble it on shitcoins. I'd rather pay some chud buying Pepe than the IRS.

>>60607075
well be careful with that, I waited for BTC to hit 90 or 95k.. sometimes it's better to just buy it no matter what and hold. Same with my alts, sold them all hoping to get a bigger stack before btc exploded but now have no bags

>>60607099
Huh didn't even think about that. I sold all my BTC last Dec when we broke 100k. I dumped most into index funds and maybe 30% into cash, which I've just been sitting on. What do you recommend doing? I was thinking of just flipping volatile large caps until it looks like the market is done, then back to all in btc for the next few years.

I mean, you can just buy next dip, sell the next top. As long as you make money, then who cares if you timed things perfectly? We're all betting we'll be the ones buying low, selling high at some point, anyway.

>>60607030 (OP)
Holding alt coins is retarded
>t. Some retard who bought alts in 2020 and is still holding

>>60607212
Why are you still holding them? Just free your mind from your previous all-time high portfolio and buy low, sell high from now on, bit by bit, with better habits and ease of mind.

>>60607201
ye you need some discipline doing that tho.. u don't wanna buy dip at -5%, buy dip, buy dip etc. General rule is sell 20% at +15%, another 20% at +30%, if it drops from +15% rebuy at -10%. Buy dips -10% etc etc

>>60607227
I'm holding out on the hopes they at least reach what I paid for and then sell them

>>60607099
bro i hAVENT Paid any taxes since 2017.

when i do my taxes i put that i own zero crypto assets

i have sold hundreds of thousands cashed out into my bank over the years

yall think they are gonna know y trade history from 2017???


they are disbanding the irs as well

>>60607240
Are u taking out withdrawal to ur bank in large sums? You could use crypto cards etc for purchases but ideally try to only take out 1000 or less a week or they will start to notice

>>60607030 (OP)
take out you inital investment

>>60607240
>they are disbanding the irs as well
Yeah, no. As much as would all love that- not happening bruh.

>>60607050
>do you watch 4H charts
no, I watch 1m and 5m charts
>When do you know when to sell?
I don't hence why I'm still here. I never get greedy though if there's a 2 or 3x I sell. I'm not trying to find 10000x moonshots.
>RSI?
I don't look at this.

>>60607233
I literally just bought when things indicated oversold and just sold at overbought. I had a stop loss for 5% down. I would have lost a grand, but that's ok. I could have tried again another time. Your method seems like catching a falling knife.
>>60607234
what's the point? you could flip into something else and make it back within a month.
>>60607248
ended up selling everything. Secured a month's pay. I'll just buy back when things look oversold again.
>>60607258
so you're looking at really tiny coins? I've got mid 5 figs liquid so can't really ape into something that's not at least a billion mc without slippage. I wouldn't want to buy anything I can't put stop losses on either.

>>60607271
ye but with my method I use 1X at the start, only using leverage to buy dips when not paid then add to keep it 0 or near. It's money that I ignore so even a temp 1k loss doing this shouldn't matter once there's no liq or very little.

>>60607034
>sidelined for alt season
I'd never..

>>60607030 (OP)
Years because I've got that diamond hands.

>>60607030 (OP)
You hold until your indicators/metrics, whether they be technical analysis schizo voodoo lines or your gut, tell you to sell

>>60607271
>so you're looking at really tiny coins?
yea. the only memecoins i buy are 1m-100m mcap

>>60607234
Which ones? SUI? A? XRP?

>>60607041
That's too early IMO in bull conditions.

>>60607030 (OP)
been holding my linkies for 7 years now
