$BTC The HODL trading strategy is a long-term investment approach popular in the cryptocurrency world. "HODL" originated from a misspelled word "hold" and now stands for "Hold On for Dear Life." This strategy involves buying cryptocurrencies and holding them through market volatility, rather than selling during downturns. HODLers believe in the long-term potential of digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, expecting significant gains over time. This method requires patience and strong conviction, ignoring short-term price movements. The HODL strategy contrasts with active trading and is often favored by those who trust in blockchain technology's future and seek to avoid emotional trading decisions.
