if you are an expert in trading you can try it by minimizing your loss.
because what I know is a lot of alt coin when a market like this rises and falls more than 200% every day.
If you want to minimize your losses then trading is a good strategy so that even if you cannot get back your losses in just one trade, at least you will be able to minimize it by getting small profits. You are also accumulating experience and lesson along the way which would be the key to be a successful trader in the future. There may be times when you experience losing but then if you make a trading strategy and follow it without your emotions interfering in the way then eventually you can be profitable.
Absolutely yes, you can't move your investment if you keep on holding and waiting for a moment that it will rise. It is better to find ways and make some gains on it and trading will be the last option. Though it have a high risk but for sure we can get something on it.
It is better to act and try to gain some coins than to complain all day that the market is not doing good. Take for example bitcoin, the price went up and down and if you use technical analysis from it then you would have reap profits from it but if you are holding then you are just complaining that the price just bouncing up and down.
