Topic: Trading Or Investing which one is better to focus on right now? (Read 722 times)

Its seems very good ideas with technical of trading as short term and long term, I have some coins take profit for long term and make its as investment and some coins for short term with daily day trading behind the significant movement such as meme coins. Its very worth when making meme coins for short term or daily day trading how significant price pump and too risk if meme coins become investing with long term holding.
Can't hold meme coins scare with drastically dump and meme coins is worth significant short term between few days later for holding. When meme coims have dropped very difficult to see raise up again to the higher price.

right, i am investing money in both way, because i always buy some coin for long term holding because they have bright future and i expecting big returns of those coins,
on the other hand i am trying day trading or weekly because here i can get good profits in short time, so i targeted some coins those are like pump and dump coin like memes.

Well, basically, choosing investments can also be difficult. Choosing an investment is not that easy, especially choosing the time and type. If we choose the wrong time and type of investment, we may wait years to get a profit. However, it may be a better option than choosing trading for people who do not know how to trade. That's because when someone lacks knowledge in trading, the money they have can decrease quickly, especially in cryptocurrencies where the level of fluctuation is very large. However, with investment, it might be easier for him.
Personally, I stress myself more about investing than trading because I'm pretty bad at it. However, with investment, I can hold the assets I own for the long term until I make a profit. Well, if I choose the right investments, I probably won't be waiting in the long run.

Both can be profitable if done with proper management and skills. However, while trading and investing can both promise immense profits, but taking such risks without knowledge and experience can also mean the opposite thing, that is ruining all your funds and making you upset in the end.

This is the reason why we have to study the market condition at first if it’s going to maximize our profits or pull down our future profits. But I firmly believe that since we are still approaching bitcoin halving, hodling is more recommended even from those who are legends here, and just resort into trading when the final bull run is actually happening. However, this is just from my own point of view, as I’m seeing bitcoin as a long term investment rather than focusing on its uncertainty.

I do agree that it is something that will take a while, and it shouldn't really be all that confusing to many people, I feel like that should always be something that would be a little different. I hope to see some changes here and there, which would mean that we are going to end up with a lot of trouble if we are not careful.

I believe that we are going to end up with profit either way if we know what we are doing. And yet, if we do not know what we are doing both could be horrible for us, so when we are picking, it is not about this or that, it's about what type of thing could we do, if we can trade better then we should trade and if we invest better we should invest. Get to know yourself and what kind of person you are.

Personally I think investing in some coins whenever their prices experience a pullback or retracement is the best bet bearing in mind that we are already in bullish run and price movement is in fractal that is bound to be a pullback that is when the opportunity of buying at low is unveiled whenever that opportunity comes your way you start buying using DCA and with the upcoming halving of Bitcoin definitely other cryptos would also experience bullish run, though Bitcoin ATH is already achiev, however it's very difficult to embark on trading without any prior knowledge of trading even during this bullish run.

Fortunately, both trading and investing are aiming for the same goal which is profit making but the big difference between them is one makes instant profit while the other makes profit in a long term, instant profit is nice but it can't be compared to a guaranteed profit that will made in future. Everyone has his or her own preference but trading has a lot of disadvantages compared to investing, some of this disadvantages include:
1. Time
2. Rate of Loses
3. No guarantee for profit
4. Tolerance etc to mention but a few.

on this note most people engage in investing because of the liberty it offers, hence it's an individual thing one choices what he or she wants and go for it. if you like to trade you can go for it but if you wan to invest then you should go for it.

     In our current situation in the market, it seems to have broken for the time being, and when the break-time is over, it is for sure that the price value of Bitcoin will take
off again in the uptrend and the top altcoins in the market will also follow.

     So the best thing to do now is to buy while there is a short correction in the market, because this is a sign of a good opportunity to buy potential coins
that we know have potential and then hold.

Investment is another option we can do in crypto business. It is not the solution for the bad trading.  If we are bad at trading, it may be caused by lack of knowledge in trading. So, we apply an inappropriate strategy in trading. This can make a difficult way to earn profits. So the solution is to learn more deeply about trading. 

Most people in crypto must have investment because crypto coins are basically for investing over trading. You must be aware that it is easier to invest over trading because trading requires more complex knowledge, skills, or ability. Meanwhile in investment, we only need to choose which coins potentially raise in the future. We only need to buy and hold them, then we wait for the bullish season. Anyway, investing doesn't same with saving, investing means to have a chance to a significant change on the value in the future.

To actively engage in trading, it is necessary to have enough time for this, which most of us do not have. The problem of free time when investing is solved much easier than when trading, once you buy coins, you can hold them for a very long time.

This is actually true on which it would really be that depending with your preference because not all people would really be just that the same when it comes to capabilities and skills on which
they would really be hindering up themselves on dealing up with something just because someone do make out some warning that they shouldnt really be doing so.

In between trading or investing then you could really be able to actually do both.It would really be just that depending on how well you do able to make yourself that be able to engage
and able to make out some right decisions basing up on the things that you are dealing with. It all matters with risks management and funds that you would really be using.
You could make out some trades while doing some invesment for long term on which its not something impossible that you could be able to do such thing.
It is really just that it wont really be that simple to deal with.

This is a nice approach to the current market conditions, after Bitcoin passed $70,000 I sold most of my Bitcoin because I know it'll get a corrections. I didn't want to lose my profits that's why I sold but I'll be buying again when the correction goes lower. I think trading isn't the best decision to take when Bitcoin is in the bull marketsl, investing should be the best decision, you can invest with a short term approach or a long term approach. After the market corrects and I buy back some Bitcoin, I won't be selling again but will be holding until Bitcoin passes a new highest price that's more than $120,000 because that's the price Bitcoin will be heading when the bull season gets to its peak. Trading might make you to miss the bull season, I'm only taking some profits because I want to buy more Bitcoin so I can have more amounts for the bull season.

If you have bought some coins, congratulations but I hope you know when it's time to exceed the market, I mean by the time we hit the euphoria stage where everyone look like they have seen the future and some coins with plenty zeros to a dollar. The truth is that, those statements are just fake illusions that might not even happen and if anything terrible happens, that's the end of the race especially the way Microstrategy is buying Bitcoin everyday with borrowed funds.

If you have the skills, you can enjoy the two, both trading and holding because you can be stuck in a resistance for a week or even or even more than but when you trade, you have these opportunity to always closed your trade and maintain your profits in stablecoin and then buy back when market retrace everytime but you need the skills, if you don't have the time and trading skill, stick to buying and holding.

To be able to trade, of course you have to understand trading well in order to make a profit from the trades you make and choosing to invest would indeed be better if you don't understand trading well, because in trading there are many things that have to be done so it will be very difficult to do if don't understand it well and it will be very risky if you force yourself to trade without good knowledge.

Knowledge about trading and investment is certainly a very important thing to learn before starting to enter trading and investment, because in trading or investment of course people hope for profits and there is very little chance of making a profit if you don't have knowledge about these two things.

Just consider your personal preference, not the others. If people say they are in trading, I don't think you need to do that because it was suggested but rather look at your capabilities. Only consider trading if you have knowledge or else, better choose to invest. In fact, both are profitable but investing is less risky compared to trading. It is very important to just think about what is your preference rather than what people are saying as they also have different preferences. Even if they say that trading or investing are more profitable, still don't assume that you can be like them as it depends on your actions and strategies.

it depends on the person, if they understand more about trading, then maybe they can say that trading is better than investing, because they can immediately get a profit from their trades. however, if the person is more interested in investing, then he can say that investing is better than trading, because you don't need to bother thinking about analysis, taking positions, cutloss/take profit, and so on.

but i think that, whether it's trading or investing, it's just as good if the person carries out their strategy and knowledge. there is no better or worse, because both trading and investing have the same goal of making a profit.

What do you mean by trading and investing, those could be both in aspects of having a risk, in trading you can do spot trading or investing which common concept of buying low and selling high, or you can do futures trading which you watch the market price movement so you can trade. It depends on you if you have time you can watch the market every day and try to make a profit with its volatility, or if you don't have you can do just spot trading make a DCA or accumulate as much possible like this coming event of halving people grabbing the opportunity to earn money with the upcoming all-time high.

The DCA method is probably one of the most effective ways to accumulate Bitcoin for the long-term because you will have a good average buying price if you keep buying every dip and keep taking a profit after the price hits your desired target. A lot of people don't understand this but everyone doesn't have to become traders if you don't understand the technical stuff and you know you are just going to waste your money, just keep buying and storing Bitcoins for the long-term and take profit when you are satisfied.
This strategy is proven to have a very high success rate among investors even if the investors are newbies in the market.

Trading is not for everyone because of how risky it is. Many people don't like trading because they are scared of losing their money, and I cannot blame them for that. It is their choice and their wish to not be able to take the risk of trading. Further, some people are trying to avoid the market stress of looking at the market anytime or managing the market.

That is why you will see that not everyone likes trading, so it is up to you to decide which one you will do, whether trading or investing, because thinking that you will get the right answer here is not an option because many people will come up with different opinions, so it will be better if you analyze the risk in both of them and choose the one you see will favor you. Don't forget to DYOR.


Yeah, it is very important traders should observe these in their trading activities so they will not lose their capital and their profit because it happens to many traders when getting their money back with profit instead they should use their capital to go back to the market they tend to use both the profit and the capital to trade again which is very risky.

 I think they should use only the capital to continue trading, while their profits should be withdrawn from their trading account and never go back, and that is what will favor them. because losing all their money will put them in another financial situation.

As long as you have made a profit, selling a part is a very good idea and the reason we invest is to make money. The interesting part is that you are not selling everything because Bitcoin is now around 70k so automatically you have made another extra profit. You can also give other altcoins a try. because if a correction takes place, it will affect the whole market, so as you are investing in Bitcoin, some altcoins can be given a try.

The way the market is going, it does not look as if it will come below $60,000 for now, and anything that makes the price of bitcoin come below $60,000, then there will be a massive boost in the market and the way bitcoin is recording different ATH shows that there will be a boost.
