Nothing good can be achieved without holding in the long term. If you do something in the short term, it becomes trading. If you do something in the short term, you cannot gain much from it. If I have done these or am still doing some things, from my own analysis, I can see that if you do something in the short term, you cannot expect anything good from it. However, some profits can be achieved but not much can be expected.

That is not true at all. Short-term strategies can be highly profitable and effective, especially in volatile markets like this. Yes, you can call it trading. But many successful traders have built their fortunes on short-term trades.
Going long is cool and takes guts, no doubt. But acting like long holds are the one true path? Get real. If you play it smart you can crush it in the short run too.
