The challenge for regulators, as always, is to develop effective solutions while at the same time not weakening the growth of emerging companies and markets.

I believe that in crypto trading, one should be able to provide flexible involvement in picking the right pair at right time and monitor the same, whereas in investing one can take his time to do research and invest as the time frame is much higher. I believe that trading is not everyone's cup of tea (like me). Even the smallest mistake can lose entire capital.

Short-term trading makes your investment a headache, because you'll always check the price and what's happening on the market from time to time. I suggest you hold your investment and it makes you not to worry on your investment, but there is also a disadvantage with holding you may end up losing your money because of the price volatility of bitcoin.

I prefer short term more though it may sound amateur  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes it lets you out and in when needed, so I think it's more effective. and it's strongly suggested if you arent a pro, just doing this part time.

There are specific short-term trading opportunities which an investor can take advantage: Many of these short term events tend to have limited upside supply demand imbalances during a trading session would usually normalize with the day , if not the next fee  hours . Investor will spend more time capturing these opportunities and often at the cost of charger portfolio turnover. In order to be successful when trading in this term length ,you must understand the benefits and challenges of what you're doing.Short term trading is the fact that your capital is only at risk for short period of time.

If you are familiar with the term trading , and have an idea - then go ahead to the exchange. If you just want to get rich quickly, then most likely you will lose everything quickly. Start investing and learning coins . You need to think with your head. And less trust in the signals from analysts.

When I try to trade in stock exchange , their value depend on global issue and the increment on range 0.1% - 5 %
After I try trade altcoin on crptocurrency ,their value still volatile and the increment is insane 2% - 20% in one day !

That's why you must prepare the worst when you decide to trade bitcoin !

Pros would be the profit, crypto is volatile it moves quickly so you can make good profits.
Cons it takes a lot of time up, just as much as you can make good profit, you can quickly lose just as much money.
Day trading is hard, its not just easy to do you need to know what you are doing, i prefer to learn about a good coin and hold.
Each to there own
It is just like a gamble, sometimes you win a lot, sometime you lost a lot when you are doing a day trading or just a short term trading you should know how to control your money and your emotion, set an strategy, for example if you are doing short term and you have seen that the price is going low then don't sell it yet, wait for the right time.

You won't ever lose everything because things never really go to 0, or if they do you hope you would liquidate at some point before 0. It makes sense if you can understand TA, and are able to combine that with other market factors in order to make you money. What you have to ask yourself and be honest about is, do you have the skills necessary to do short-term trading? Because it isn't something you decide you want to do, like say investing long term in altcoins (completely different game).

short term trading like scalping is good strategy as long as you know how to enter and exit in the market and not be swayed by hypes and pumps of others.

the difference of short term to long term trading is you will miss the lowest low and the all time high of the certain coin because you are scalping in the middle. it is more risky because it requires a lot of entry and exit unlike long term trade once you get in, wait, then get out when you are satisfied.

No success in a short time
talking about risk, the risk of investing with bitcoin is proportional to the profit that will get
but not as easy as we think, first we have to learn about bitcoin, not because you have a lot of money then you immediately make a trade,we need to learn it first, otherwise it will be a hassle if we face problems in the future

Short-term trading gives you great benefits, and requires only a small amount of capital.
but the risk that you will be received is also big, but I think it is comparable to what we will get.

I think short - term encryption can get more revenue in the short term. But not everyone is fit for short-term trading, which requires you to have a lot of short-term trading experience that you can gain. Many people are losing money on short-term investments.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody
Short term trading? I always knew it as day trading. It greatly depends on the exchange fees, so you need to find an exchange that is cheap to trade and at the same time has a decent volume, so that you don't have to wait for your order to fill. I've seen people do all three things at the same time, meaning long investments in new altcoins + day trading the most popular coins like BTC and ETH, and arbitrage. If you add to it the profit from airdrops and forks, like the recent ltc fork that you were able to trade before it even happened, you can make a lot of money. I'm talking thousands of USD a day if you know what you're doing.

Pros and cons in any market are always the same.

There is the potential to make huge profits, of course it will depend on your trading skills. Cons is also having to risk your capital that may end up of substantial losses. Also Being a short term trader is time consuming and very stressful. You need to be fast in spotting trading opportunities.
