I think you should just stick to what you believe, everybody with his/her opinion about things, some will definitely choose to hold why some will prefer to trade, atlast both will get a particular result suitable for their decision. Just keep doing your thing, don't follow anybody but your mind.
following your own desires is the best lesson in trading, because everything or experience is the best teacher,
