Bitcoin Forum

Greetings to the World! :)
Can you guys help me decide on what type of Market is the best to invest my extra money. My options are Forex Market, Stock Market and of course Cryptocurrency Market as well. Probably, I am a type of Semi- Passive  trader who really likes to combine my buying with some timing and then sells after few months when the target price is reached. I am just really confused which is the best/ suited for me. Please also include your reasons why the market you have chosen is the best. Thank you. ;D

I have no experience with forex market but AFAIK that's a very quick type of market so that doesn't suits your situation.

Stocks and crypto market has similarity in some ways but I left my interest to the stocks and became focused with crypto market. Crypto market is also quick in a way that there's a pump and dump but that's different from the quickness I mentioned on Forex or I might be wrong with Forex since I'm inexperienced with it.

Unless you live in a country with an extraordinarily bad local currency I'd stay out of the forex market. There's little to be gained outside of daytrading with leverage, which is also an excellent way to lose money unless you're lucky and know what you're doing. The crypto market is obviously a very interesting one (otherwise we wouldn't be on this forum), however I wouldn't underestimate the stock market as a hedge against crypto market downturns (and vice versa, although this still needs to prove itself).

In short, I'd stay away from forex and find a mix of stocks and cryptos that I'm comfortable with. Don't forget to do your homework though!

For me crypto and stock market are the best. In crypto I suggest that you invest in bitcoin and hodl it until bitcoin rises, patience is the key. And in Stock market it depends on the rising companies, or invest in a company that keeps on rising even if the rise is 3% only.

There is no "best market". It completely depends on how much you actually know on these certain markets. Also depends on how risky you want to trade/invest.

It's mostly the case that:

• Forex/Stocks: more stable, less volatility
• Cryptocurrency markets: higher volatility, higher chances for profit

the higher the volatility the higher the chance for reward and the higher the chance for large losses. High risk brings high rewards but if you're not disciplined it will bring high losses. Ya got to know when to fold your hand ;)

How much in general are you looking to place? It differs greatly, if all you got is $1k then there's little point in dividing it, since it's not alot of money - better go all in on something-crypto and see how it goes, but if you have $100k then it's a bigger difference  :P

I think here is the most popular market stock market, economy, finance, and related business news. Keep in mind the focus of these sites, above all else, invest in the website as compared to the crypto and stock market best. However, some of the most important typer of the market are the Consumer market, Business market, Government market, the Institutional market is the best invest market site.

I think that I'll utilizing these 2 markets. Stock for long term holding and crypto for short term trading basis. I think I need a lot of researching and studying the fundamental and techinical analysis for both parties.

Could you say that our local currency is bad because it usually has a much higher level of imports compared to the numbers of exports in a country? Also, the monetary value of our currency fluctuates that causes fewer items may be bought at a given time. This is a very alarming situation in our country, and as time goes by the inflation rate of goods and services are now increasing.

1) Stocks appreciate because the underlying company does well and earns money by selling goods and services.

2) Cryptos appreciate because they stand to disrupt and potentially supersede private and governmental infrastructures.

3) Foreign currencies appreciate because your local government fucked up their monetary policy worse than the corresponding foreign government.


(1) is putting money to work, (2) is hoping for growth of a currently small market and (3) is assuming your government fucks up.

To some extend however (1) (when trading a foreign company) and (2) also work assuming your government fucks up so the reasons for resorting to (3) are rather limited.

(That is, without knowing your individual circumstances and which country you reside in. If you're within the US or the Eurozone, dabbling in Forex is needlessly risky for what little there is to gain. If you're from Venezuela or Turkey things are less clear cut.)

before i knew cryptocurrency, i already knew forex first
but i don't know the stock market,

if i think the difference is
forex: more volatile, in one day there can be a very high increase, the next day a sharp decrease.
many speculan inside, because forex more famous than cryptocurrency.
when the market up or down, you can still get the profit.

cryptocurrency: more stable, if it is going up it will tend to rise, but if it goes down it will tend to go down,
few speculan,
you can get the profit just from buying if you sell at a higher price than the purchase/buying price.

unfortunately that is not something we can tell you, that is something you have to decide on your own. you might want to consult a real financial adviser around you if you feel the need. basically the first thing you need is experience in each of these markets to be able to make profit. it is not like you can enter any market and then start making money!
take Forex for instance, it is extremely hard to make profit but many are doing it day after day but i will never be able to because i know that i have no experience in it. but i have experience in altcoin market and i can make profit there.
additionally some markets sometimes depend on the country. for example in Turkey that the currency (Lira) is falling against dollar, people have been going to stocks and they have been doing well, it may even end up in a bubble. so there is a lot of profit there right now. but somewhere else it might not be as well.

I am actually from the Philippines, and our country is currently experiencing an inflation rate at a national level further increasing to 6.4 percent in August 2018 which is the highest level in over nine years or since the Philippines’ inflation reached 6.6 percent in March 2009. This is actually an enormous change in our country, and the victim of these sudden change of price are poor people. So I think that stock market will be the best platform to trade from.

Bumping my thread, I just need more opinions from you on where should I invest. Because until now I can't come up with the final answer.

Most people have and will recommend crypto markets for several reasons:
1. It's a crypto forum, so people who are here are usually trading or holding cryptocurrencies. If you have a hobby and somebody asks you what hobby is interesting you will obviously recommend your hobby, right?
2. Bitcoin is deflationary. It's bound to increase in value. While forex or stocks can trade sideways for years Bitcoin can't. It will either grow or die and it will have an bull market every 2-3 years, if it continues to exist. That's a fact. So even if you decide to hold the bag, as people like to call it, you will eventually make some profit.

Just find a market that is cyclical (goes up big and down big) and wait for a bear market to get in. Simple. You are now a millionaire, you're welcome.

As an option you can give your money to the person/team that invests them at their own discretion and you divide the profit later.
This is not an ideal scheme because in order to give money to people you have to 100% trust them and be confident in their qualifications.

The choices that you have listed here all involve some kind of risk, some have less risk, but some have more risks,  however out of all the choices mentioned above I would recommend Cryptos, and in particular investing in bitcoins. I'm not a forex expert so I'll not elaborate on that, but when it comes to stocks these are uncertain times for the global market, we can see a major crash coming soon based on the way Trump is going ahead with his policies.

I'm keenly suggesting Bitcoins as it's a safe hedge when things get ugly in the market. In the long run you'll earn a lot, and the returns that bitcoins give no other asset can give.

The best market for you is the market that you are well aware of, it is you hard earned money that will affected the most, so i guessed before making any move to that certain market, you will think of it not only twice but thrice, just to be sure of what you are doing

For me, the best options to trade are options. This I say, that personally I like and suited. Many options offer cryptocurrency trading on any day, not just on weekdays when trading on major exchanges. Of course you can trade on cryptocurrency exchanges, but I have not tried, perhaps this is a good way.
If you do not know, I use the sites Binomo or Olymptrade

Forex market is too much  Risky. before Forex trading need to learn every thing like candle pattern, rsi, mfi etc. other site if you buy popular crypto Currency for long term i think it is profitable.  Iam trading forex last 4 year above, need Mind setup & big invest for forex trading. start live trading at first you need to try demo trading otherwise you loss all your money. thank u

i think there is no best market here. Whether the market is good to invest or not, it depends on your knowledge about that market and your ability to deal with its difficulity. For me, I will always choose crypto market, because even it is risky but it is worth investing. If I can deal with its unstable, you can earn a lot of money.

Of all the three markets mentioned above, I have tried to invest in all at one point, but didn't except in crypto market. After reading and doing my homework, just with little technical know-how, I discovered it is much more easier to profit in crypto than in the other markets. As a calm and patient newbie, one can profit hugely in crypto without investing money; all what is needed is time and energy, of which it is the same for both stock market and forex. These two definitely involve capital investments.

HI.
My opinion that crypto is the best thing to invest, but only when it is on the bottom and to find the bottom is a task which every trader has to st up for himself. IMO, BTC 6k$ is near to bottom, so possible to invest there

While the three options you listed are all good to invest in,it would be very difficult for someone other than yourself to make that choice,the reason being that only you know how much capital you really want to invest,which is the most vital part of every investment..

Before investing also you need to analyse the condition of the market to know if it's favorable or not.

I would be dishonest if I said I've invested in any other than the crypto market,and so I know little about the others,so based on my experience I'll suggest the crypto market to you,not because it's better than the others,but because I've earned quite a huge bucks from it, risky and time consuming As it is.
