this is interesting, because everyone will often make this decision. traders, investors, or speculators.
the term "HODL" appeared in 2013, and came from a GameKyubi post in this forum. with the big theme "I AM HODLING"
he posted the theme because bitcoin dropped to $ 600 from $1300.
and today, investors prefer hodl. but, what is the decision for traders today? or many investors are turning into traders?
Holding is the best way to reduce the chances of losing money , thats why it is usual nowadays because people prefer jolding than selling or buying. If you are hesitating between the two then holding is the best option you can take.
