I find it fascinating to read Hive-related finance posts like yours because users openly share their strategies for growing their stakes or holdings. There's so much to learn from these posts, especially since our journey here is centered on personal growth as users. A good measure of that growth is the stake our account holds.
I recently tried trading Hive-HBD, and although I did make a profit, I decided to stop because I realized I don't have enough conviction to keep doing it. :D
Do you use any tools to automate your trading, or do you prefer managing it manually?
Only manual management—bots are harmful. If bots don’t work correctly, as is often the case, they can cause even greater damage. I used to make money exploiting poorly functioning bots—they still exist, you just have to look for them. The only bots that work well are from major exchanges like Binance, Bybit, and similar platforms, but messing around with them usually ends poorly. I don’t have the resources to run such bots.
Right now, the market is in a special phase, and there’s no point in chasing small movements. Altcoins are making impulsive moves with large percentage changes. My current strategy is to wait for a strong impulsive move on the daily timeframes, then wait for price stabilization and lock in profits. Afterward, I wait for a correction from the upward trend—typically around -20-40% from the peak—and buy back with the goal of increasing the number of coins I hold.
I completely agree with you about following posts on this topic—there are indeed some interesting insights, especially for those who are less experienced. For example, how can someone with only 1k HP understand the perspective of someone holding 100k HP? They can’t, unless the person with 100k writes about it. And what about 1,000,000 HP? It’s the same situation. Having 100 HP on your account is one thing; having 1,000 HP or more is something entirely different. These levels unlock vastly different opportunities, shift your perception of the ecosystem’s philosophy, and open new doors. I’m not sure I’m explaining my thoughts clearly, but I hope you understand.
In my first post on this topic, I mentioned someone who wrote weekly reports for three years. I went through them all in just a couple of days. Consistent effort, focusing on one area over a long period, yields amazing results.
Please share links to authors you follow—those who write about strengthening their accounts. I’d also be interested in reading articles on this subject.
Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks, it's a pleasure.
Oh, I thought you were planning to do some kind of day trading. However, after reading about your strategy, it seems different but feasible, especially during these volatile times in the crypto space. Looking at the Hive charts gives one an idea of the patterns the coin is following. I hope you'll include some writing about your experience trading in the internal market and share your insights.
I'm curious because I don't find it easy to analyze Hive in terms of its price, so I gave up on it and simply focused on what I think I do better: posting and networking on the platform. :D
Regarding the authors I follow who consistently track their growth:
Some of them track their progress weekly, while others do so monthly. Some focus on Hive's L1 tokens, while others venture into L2 tokens. It's pretty interesting to see how they are progressing over time.
I'm not very skilled in day trading, especially not in the current market conditions. It might look something like this: buying at 0.27 and selling at 0.32. That’s great—a profit of over 10%, which is quite significant. But the problem is that you might not be able to buy back the asset at those price levels after selling. The next purchase could end up being forced at 100-200-300% higher. I consider that to be not very profitable, to put it mildly.
In my opinion, in the current market situation, it makes sense to wait—maybe days, maybe weeks—to sell the planned volume with the goal of buying back at a lower price. That way, it’s both more profitable and less time-consuming, and you’ll save your nerves as well. 😊
At the moment, I convert all HBD payouts from posts directly into HIVE, at any price. This serves as a trading fund. I also receive daily rewards from Ecency, which contribute to this fund.
You're doing everything right. If something isn’t working, you should try doing it differently. It’s just foolish to keep doing the same thing, using the same methods, and expecting a different result. If something doesn’t work, you need to change your approach. I’ve been through day trading in 2020-2021, and I didn’t like it. I drew my conclusions and changed my methods.
Thank you for the list of authors—it’s very interesting!

Sweet!
It looks like you’re also actively searching comment to upvote even without a call.
Well done 👍
Yes indeed. I have the voting power, so why not use it.
