Steem and EOS will be my HODL coins. I'm willing to take the loss. I like to swing trade Litecoin, which sadly is one of the worst performing coins right now. When I see a big spike in the market (40% or more) I will move 10%-20% of my Litecoin holdings. spike up: sell 10%, spike down: buy 10%. I used to just go all in but the variance you get from doing that is aggravating.
Even though Steem and EOS are my hodl coins I'll probably not power up while they are spiking up... just turn all SBD into fiat during those months and reinvest during September.
