Any luck does not favor good knowledge but strong analysis with existing experience, you will get lucky when the coin you hold rises more than 50% of the price you bought with so luck is in your hands. hold coin does not mean gold even has no value, all coins are down, we must refrain from trading, especially releasing existing tokens or coins.
In my opinion most of the coins that aren't having decent marketcap should be sold right off when they give good returns over investment as they are only short lived coins and will eventually go back to from where they started the journey, i.e. to zero dollars in value. This is what I have experienced in all the years that I have spent in the market and gaining as well as loosing a lot of money in the process.
