I was hold some good coin since september last year untill now but the result is very bad, i loss more than 80% . And from this case i will never to be hodler again, i think will be more profitable to do swing trading or day trading. Holder can be make profit in more than 3 years and i can not wait for that long.
Basically, what went down with what you did mate is the length of time. Although Hodling in this market really entail a period of time, it still variesa and trying to think that the longer you hold a coin would make its value increase is not so applicable now since the market has always been in a bad spot, and more than increases, many token lose their value or even die out. Therefore, short term investments are better these days.
