Hi traders!
Does somebody here do trading in stock market and also trading in bitcoin? Which is more profitable and safe?
Thanks ahead!

Someone might have mentioned this to you, but even so, it would warrant repeating - there is a big difference between trading and investing

Trading is generally more hands-on and involves more transactions. You might buy a stock/crypto, wait for it to increase, and then sell once you have reached an increase level that you are happy with.

Whereas investing is to buy something and then not sell it for a long time (in some cases ever - I think legendary investor Warren Buffett talks about how he will never sell Coca-Cola stock).

There could be a place in your portfolio for all of the above - you could buy and hold some stocks/crypto for the long term (invest) and have some allocation for a more hands on approach where you are more consistently buying and selling (trading).

It is up to you of course - there are lots of different ways of going about this. What I am saying above is not advice, but something that you can consider for different approaches.

Trading cryptocurrecny gives you faster money but also can make you lose almost everything since the crypto market is crazy while trading in stock market it takes time for you to double your money because the market in stocks doesn't move that much compared to crypto.

Even when they go down in value, stocks are usually a much safer option. Cryptocurrencies are high-risk and unregulated but when they hit, they are much more profitable.

yep. bitcoin price down, you hold, no profit. stock price down, you hold, you get a dividend and you get a piece of a company. but btc trading is more profitable, though. So bitcoin=(more) profitable and stock=(more) safe

I do trading in stock market as well as Bitcoin. Till now, I have received profits from both. But I don't need to explain it. The level of profits which I received from Bitcoin can't be compared with those which I got from the stock market.

Bitcoin- in bullish time

Bitcoin and stock market are very different from each other because stock market is like a slow process to get rich because you need to invest in blue chip companies for long term rather than in bitcoin that you just need to invest in coins that has a good fundamental and after a few months you can easily double your money.

Both have risk.
Bitcoin gives strong return this past few years (appreciation is quite a boost) and it can be use as electronic/digital payment. In Stocks ( depends on economy)the income is too long to realize.

Both are same, but in bitcoin we get more profit but we need more predicting experience so can make more profit in stock market too.

Actually for me both are profitable but I choose investing in bitcoin. In bitcoin by holding some of btc then in just a few months you might earn profit big. In stock market there is a high risks investing in it a big chance to lose money and the earn profit is too long to see the outcomes. Thus, bitcoin is the best investment as the price is continuously sky rocket.

I used https://1broker.com to trade some CFD's for a while, but it was slow and not very profitable. I find trading in Bitcoin directly on exchanges are much more profitable, if you buy on the dip and sell on the high. Lately the price of Bitcoin has been very volatile and this is good for traders.

You have to buy on the lowest end and then sell on the highest end to cover your fees and still make some good profits on small amounts. < I made more profit in 3 days with Bitcoin trading, than what I made in 1 year with CFD trading > ^Isuck@trading^

I have an investment in a stock of a big commercial bank here in my country and I started years ago (I think 5 years ago) and I already have a 50% increase in value. It is still good but you know that if at that time I invested in Bitcoin then I am already a millionaire today. There is a big difference because stocks (also forex) is different so much different than Bitcoin. This is why many stock and forex traders are now also in Bitcoin.

I'm just planning to invest in stocks market but this is what I observed base on my studying before entering it.

1. In stocks, the profit is very slow. It will take years to see your profit.

2. In bitcoin,it will only take a couple of days or months and you can get an instant profit.

Stock is safe because it is backed up by the government, bitcoin is decentralized but we do trust it.

Both of them are risky but bitcoin is better and profitable.

If you invested in a bitcoins about a month ago, you would've doubled you money, can't do that with stocks in large companies. A 10% return in a year is considered good.

Very true, in stocks you actually need a lot of time before seeing your profit.

But don't expect that it will be a bigger amount, the motion of your investment there is very slow but it is a legit source.

Bitcoin is way better of it and trading of alt coins can be better than stocks.

Did CFD's for a while. When I started out with crypto's it felt kind of familiar due to the volatility but I definitely prefer crypto's nowadays since the entire market is bullish.

And the volatility of cryptocurrency market strong and interesting than stock market many more. An altcoin can increasing up the price in one week to +1000% the base price is normally Cheesy

Well, I do invest in Both (I do not trade frequently) but I think when it comes to the high returns, one is supposed to take the high risk no matter in stocks or crypto currencies. However, I see that cryptocurrencies have far more volatility in the price as compared to that of stocks (I mean, you can see 100% growth or loss of your investment in crypto currencies within 24 hours which don't happen usually with the stocks) so the risk is comparatively low in stocks. High risk gives high returns, low risk gives low returns.

It is safer to trade stocks because all the brokers thats holding all your money is operating under a regulatory body that protects its customers' and clients' money. We dont have that in BTC trading. An exchange can always run away with your coins at anytime.

Whats more profitable will depend on how good you are in trading. A good trader will say they both are.

For stocks you have to wait for longer time than crypto world. Pick any coin and you will see dramatic movement in its price on daily basis. The thing is we can manipulate the price of bitcoin or altcoins in the crypto world (Pump groups!) but this is not the same case with stock market. That is completely different and it need heavy patience as compared to bitcoin (mean it!). Stock market moves with big industries and happenings of the world. The bitcoin is straight and open on blockchain so its easy to trade and hence contains bigger profits really.

Since Trump got elected the stock market has been booming. I think the risk is getting higher because as we all know, what goes up - must come down. Everyone will soon sell their stocks and then panic will start and before we know it there will be a big correction.

Actually, the same thing could be said for Bitcoin as it is growing exponentially right now and due for a correction so I think in a short time people will start panicking too and sell their Bitcoins, especially the beginners who just bought their first Bitcoin recently.

The stock market is a very risky business, I'd not advise thay you indulge in it. Most people who are successful in Stock Exchange often receive insider tips without which they wI'll not be making that much profit and it's often based on pure luck and it's akin to gambling. Bitcoins on the other hand is sure to give profits to those who invests in them.

There's one very interesting and important difference between stocks and Bitcoin - BTC is traded 24/7, while stocks are traded only in certain hours. This means that time passes significantly faster for BTC, and this is one of the major factors why it is so volatile. This also means that you should be prepared for price changes while you are away from exchange, this can be done via built-in tools like stop-limits and even some advanced methods like writing your own bot with official API from your exchange platform.

Yes, this is the basic difference between stock market and bitcoins and this is the cardinal reason why bitcoins surpass stock in trading. Bitcoins are accessible all the time anywhere if you have internet connection.
Today’s world is hell fast and people don’t like those things that time. That’s the reason people are preferring bitcoins over other trading investment.
