I do not support focusing on profit in long-term investment. You should keep managing your investment based on your goal, this is the best goal. But if you keep calculating the amount of profit while focusing on profit, you may be tempted to sell the holding. Entering into an additional portfolio in long-term investment can become an obstacle to your long-term investment.
So what goals do you hope to achieve when investing for the long term apart from profit? Because after all, the main reason we are here is indeed maybe most will say that financial freedom is always a strong reason but that's just a refined word because in the end the purpose of investing in bitcoin is clearly profit which is always the end result of what we do here.
I don't want to be naive because I'm in bitcoin for profit but that doesn't mean I'm someone who will only see short-term gains as one of the benchmarks because in the end we have determined from the start and it depends on each of us where our goals will stop and indeed even though it is not implied but long-term investment is always one of the things that is chosen to do so that we can get optimal results and of course it refers to the profit in it. So apart from the benefits of what you expect from your long-term investment when we say we don't have to focus on that?
I assume you don't actually get what @Shadiq is trying to say, he isn't saying that long term investment isn't for profit making but that we shouldn't focus so much on making profits and he is saying the truth in the sense that when you focus too much on profit making while in a long-term investment, there will come times when you will feel like selling because you might have seen a huge profits from your investment so it will be bad that you sold your bitcoins just because of the profits you think you have been able to get when you have not even reach the target of your accumulation and when you sell at that point, you have reduced your holdings which even when you want to buy back it will be difficult for you because the price may be higher than the amount you sold. Sure, everyone who is investing on a long term actually have a profit target, but it does not mean that all our concentration and mindset should only set at that direction.
