I still think that #HODLing is much better than trading. This has happened several times where we have seen the price of BTC go up, then go down and then go up several times. When that happens I often regret that I would have preferred to trade rather than hold my assets. HODLers just need extraordinary patience to reap the benefits. And it's not easy for everyone to do even though it's actually a pretty simple thing.
It's a simple thing but not everyone can do it because tremendous patience must be possessed to be able to achieve decent profits. It also has to be with discipline because if they don't do that maybe they will choose to trade like you and then regret it, that's not a problem, it's good at least you've made an effort for the future you just need to increase your patience to reap the benefits you deserve. Also be consistent with what you choose, especially if you do it half-heartedly or hesitantly, it's better not to do it.
