Well i believe that both long term and short term investments are good. What i usually do is i reserve some part of my investment for short term investment and some for long term investments. It is always good that way since you are not likely to miss any of the opportunities that come with either the long term or the short term investments.

Long term investing in bitcoin is sort of like buying then forgetting about it. You don't need to constantly check the price and worry about it dropping. It's much more relaxing compared to investing short term. If you're willing to go in for the long term then the long term investing is always better.
You have a point, actually it is really easy doing long term investment than short term investing because all you need to do is wait for it to rise and also you need to set the price you want to achieve before selling. Unlike with short term where in you keep an eye on the market everytime to take a look whether it has gone up or down and worry everyday about your profit.

Hello my dear Bitcoin brothers.

I would like to ask you about your experience with day/swing trading vs. long term investing and also,
what was more profitable for you and what are pros and cons for both ways of trading?

Investing on bitcoin for now i think you can go for long term as you can see bitcoin price now are getting lower and it's better to hold it for a long term.And also for altcoins invest for a long term.
I personally believe both are profitable but it actually depends on your availability to handle the type of investment. For example, if you'd go for short term trading of course you must have all the time you need to check on your coins compared to long term trading wherein you just set a certain month on when you will check back your coins if you gained profit or not.

Yeah in the case of bitcoin i have experienced both but personally i believe long term investing is good. It helps me a lot and I profit a lot when the bitcoin value goes up to the 20,000$ mark. Less hassle in long term investing but just invest only a small amount because bitcoin is unpredictable, it's value may go up or down so, that's why i always prefer to hold for long term because chances of risk are you in long term.

Day trading could be profitable for you but it's not an investment. It's more a gambling. For me investing - when you buy some coin and wait some months until devs realise some apps or improve coin technology...

FIRST THING TO REMEMBER TO INVEST ,Never invest more than you are willing/able to lose – Bitcoin is a very risky investment and you should keep in that in mind at all times.IF U INVESTED then never sell the bitocoin in the loss.Always hold for the profit.

I am watching the market since last 2 years,I dont know the reason yet,why is it fall or increase ,so in my opinion ,short term investment is highly risky and i would suggest for long term investment.

Currently, it is better to go on the long term, given the market and how low it is.

This question interests me since market is very volatile and it can get quite easy to exploit daily range for a quick small profit.

Thank you fellas.
Actually, both long term and short term investment can be profitable, depending on how you manage it. If you are doing a long term investment, you should look for the lowest price drop possible to have a decent return since you will be holding it for a longer period of time waiting for the price to pump up real high. Unlike in short term, you can play with the volatility, and can do a time to time hold and sell strategy.

It depends on how you really need your money. If your personal finances could sustain for a long time without income, well choose long term investment. Although the profits on long term is better and much higher, you can enjoy or harvest it for way too long time. But if you need an everyday fundings better try  a short term investment, even though it has a low profit but you can harvest it everyday or weekly to sustain your everyday needs

For me short term and long term investment both good but much better if you join in long term investment you can earn more profit than short term investment
Like you everyone have their own respective rays. Some people mostly want to get big profits. They never think about the time. They only want maximum profit out of their investment. For them, I believe yes long term investment is best. But for those people who are interested to get profits, doesn’t matter how much, at regular basis, short term investment suits them to live a happy life.

For me it is more advantageous to invest on the long-term than swing investing. The profits are much better abd higher when you invest long-term than short-term. Moreover, the short-term investors are often the ones that would sell their investments at the sight of a price drops therefore putting themselves and bitcoin in a disadvantageous state. So it is very optimal for both the investor and bitcoin itself if you would long-term invest.

It is better to be a long term investor than a short term. Usually short term investors will look at their wallets every day and they will panic quickly when the prices go down so they will sell




Well, life will be easier and less srressful if we will be a long term investor. We will just buy investments and wait til its price is up and our investment has grown. Unlike for short term investment, we will be considering the market price every now and then and wait for the seeming right timing to sell our investment for profit.

If you want to get more profit its better to choose long term investing.
But if you have no patience and unable to wait for a long time much better to choose short term.

Long-term investing is much better than short-term investing.
If you want to make a little profit in a short time then you can short-term investing.
And if you want to make a good profit then you can invest a long term.
Long-term investing is not a risk and there is no anxiety.

Your investment strategy depends on a particular coins. It is true that cryptocurrency is really volatile, you should be aware that there are coins that are good for long term investment and there are also coins that are good for short term investment.

hi

as per my analysis and experience in blockchain from last year "BTC , ETH , BCH"  one can hold it for long term. and use ALT coins for short term gain.

though by using ALT COINS u can make profit , make sure you buy any coins at dip so that you dont face loss by buying at peak time.

entry and exit in ALT Coin trading is very important to gain profit.

whenever you find a panic sell utilise the oppertunity to buy on second day dip not on the first day as u might sometimes face a dip on second day too.

market recovery for BTC is faster than ATL COINS ..



thanks Smiley
happy gaining

Determination of the investment depends on how much importance to be gained. Long-term investments are usually more profitable. Short-term trading wastes time in front of the screen because it is too focused attention to the fluctuations.
