you must not have enough knowledge before starting trading. I have seen many people becoming rich thanks to trading. You need to spend more time to learn about trading before getting use to it. well, holding your coins is not a bad idea, but you will lose a chance to earn even more money 
Yes, I agree with you many people want to become rich with in short period of time but they will end up in loss due to because they don't experience about trading. Op need to spend a lot of time on the trading market in order to get knowledge about trading.
That's right better knowledge should take place most of the time, because you might fail on your decisions particularly those time of doubts while the price decrease happens you cannot sell into good profit as well. I really feels disgusting when the price showed negative signs of drops and that hinders us to sell our coins in a right price which is so stressful. Long term solutions will be the right thing to do since, most of the profit experiences from different traders really have their better feedback about holding for so long months or even years.
