i think this pandemic made lots of people to think about trading and made lots of new comers loss. they failed a lot and as a result, they lost a lot of money. lots of them had no experience and then they thought they can be rich in this way. so most of them lost everything
I am not sure if new traders lost or made profit because we almost have a bull run since the March drop and I don't know how one can face loss in a bullish market because it is often said that during the bull run everyone makes profit.
A lot of new traders entered the market that's for sure because during these pandemic times everyone had at least one thing and that is, spare time which meant that people tried new things and even guys who were working from home saved a lot of time because they don't have to travel and found side activities and BTC being so popular now days attracted a lot of traders who had nothing to do but to try new things in spare time.
Profit for those who do held or to those who bought in cheap prices but talking about who would be the one to have some loss? Of course to those people
who do actively trade.Theyre playing with the movement of price and it doesnt matter if its a bull run or a bearish market yet they do still continue to trade.
On with this pandemic then some people do sees it as an alternative but i would say that this wont really be taken easily because instead of making money
then you might be losing instead this is why its better to study first and learn it up and dont rush up because it cant be learn overnight.
