HODL
An intentional misspelling of “hold” that became cryptocurrency’s most long-lasting slang, originating from an early Bitcoin forum post in which an investor declared he was “hodling” through a sharp price drop. The community embraced it with love, and it then adopted the backronym: Hold On for Dear Life.
HODLing is a conviction-based holding strategy through severe price declines, volatility cycles, and bear markets, with a belief in the long-term trajectory up, despite short-term noise. This is the crypto version of buy-and-hold equity investing, but with a more volatile asset class and less fundamental backing.
HODLing is a real test of mental strength. It is not uncommon to see drawdowns of 70-90% in crypto bear markets, and there is a real risk of permanent loss of capital if you hold through them and the asset never recovers.
Example: An investor who bought bitcoin near a bull market top watches as the price drops more than 70% in the following year. They don’t sell at a loss, they HODL. No checking the price every day, still HODLing. The position then recovers and goes beyond the original entry in the next cycle. The same conviction applied to assets that never did rebound would have led to permanent loss, not vindication.
Hold Time
The length of time a trading position is held from the entry to the exit. Hold time varies enormously by style. Scalpers hold seconds, day traders minutes to hours, swing traders days to weeks, position traders months to years. Average hold time is an important factor in the evaluation of strategy, choice of platform and analysis of costs.
In short, you need quick execution, tight spreads and low commissions as small transaction costs really add up over hundreds of trades a day. Long hold times mean significant overnight funding costs if you’re holding positions for weeks or months: swap rates on CFDs and leveraged products accrue on a daily basis, eating into your returns.
Hold time also affects the reliability of backtesting. Very short hold times are sensitive to assumptions about execution quality. Longer hold times are more exposed to structural market regime changes over the holding period.
Example: A day trader and a swing trader go long the same equity at the same price. The day trader grabs the 1% gain in the session and closes out the position, avoiding overnight risk altogether. The swing trader has a week to get a 5% move, pay swap charges on the leveraged position and take open gap risk from news breaking while the market is closed. Same direction, very different cost and risk profiles.
Holder
The owner of a security, such as a stock or bond.
Home Loans – Australia
A monthly release from the Australian Bureau of Statistics of new home loan commitments by value and number broken down by owner-occupiers and investors. One of the most closely watched Australian indicators given the outsized role of residential property in household wealth and economic health.
Australian households have some of the highest levels of debt to income in the developed world, making the housing credit cycle unusually sensitive to Reserve Bank of Australia rate decisions. Since most Australian mortgages are variable-rate or short-term fixed-rate, changes in the rate tend to work through to household cash flows more quickly than in economies where long fixed-rate mortgages are the norm.
The differentiation between owner-occupier and investor lending is analytically significant: rising investor commitments have traditionally been a precursor to property overheating, prompting macroprudential intervention by APRA.
Example: Home loan data shows investor commitments have soared for three straight months, while owner-occupier lending is flat. The RBA sees the divergence in board minutes as a concern for financial stability. APRA then provides guidance on serviceability buffers. The macroprudential response to a shift in credit composition that is apparent in the monthly home loans data months before a broader housing price imbalance appears in the headline property indices.
Honduras Lempiras (HNL)
The official currency of Honduras, issued by the Banco Central de Honduras and divided into 100 centavos. It is named after native leader Lempira, who resisted the Spanish conquest in the 16th century. Managed crawling-peg with respect to the US dollar; rate adjusted gradually, not rigidly pegged or allowed to float freely.
Honduras is an agricultural economy, with coffee, bananas and palm oil its main exports, closely linked to the United States, its largest trading partner. Remittances from Hondurans in the US are an important part of GDP and a vital source of foreign currency inflows to support the exchange-rate regime.
Dollarisation is also common in larger commercial transactions and in real estate, as well as in the official currency.
Example: A coffee co-operative in Honduras receives dollars from buyers in the United States, converts them into lempiras at the managed rate to pay local operating costs, and witnesses the steady depreciation of the crawling peg gradually reduce the lempira value of its dollar revenues over time. The predictable downward path is embedded in multi-year supply contracts the crawling peg’s gradualism creating planning certainty even as it creates structural currency drag on dollar-earning exporters.
Hong Kong Dollar (HKD)
The official currency of Hong Kong issued by three commercial banks, namely HSBC, Standard Chartered and Bank of China (HK) under the supervision of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. 100 cents make up a dollar. Runs a currency board system, pegged to the US dollar in a narrow band of 7.75 to 7.85 per USD.
So under the currency board, every HKD in circulation is 100% backed by US dollar reserves at the fixed rate. The HKMA intervenes automatically at the band limits, buying HKD at 7.85 and selling at 7.75, using reserve management rather than discretionary policy to defend the peg.
The system imports US monetary policy in its entirety: Fed rate changes are automatically mirrored, regardless of what is happening in the local economy.
Example: The Fed aggressively raises interest rates. The HKMA keeps pace with the rise whether it is the local property market or the domestic growth. Even if the Hong Kong economy is at a very different point in the cycle than the U.S. economy that is informing the Fed’s move, mortgage holders in Hong Kong on variable rates will see the size of their payments adjust up or down in direct reflection of the Fed’s move.
