I also experience situation like this. I hodl a token and then got surprised that the price takes a high positive increase, and when i see the volume it is very low. Now i just wanted to keep it and maybe in the near future there would be an enough volume for my good token price.
What is the token that you hold? Cause in many instances that a certain token/coin will never grow its volume but the selling price is so high,
* no buyers/investors
* abandoned/dead project
These are the common reason and of course, there is no reason why we should invest this kind of project because we know that we don't get any but just loose ends.
