You can do both. Trading will make you some quick cash if you trade properly. If you invest, then you will make more money but over a longer period of time.

Yeah and I think to be on safer side we should invest our money in real life, like gold, real estate where the chances of loosing money is very less and you also don't have any fear of getting scammed.

Yup You are perfect on your word because most of the people use to get scammed on the online investment such as share  market or any other kind of investment. In trading also we have some risk factors including on that. Kind of  real estates or gold investments are comparatively much safer I guess.


Exactly and I think gold is the safest investment to have, if you check the past record of gold then majority of investors have been benefited from it and gold has never disappointed its users.
it's the benefits of investing on gold but keep in mind that gold is really slow when it's about increasing its price and it's why so many people out there saying that gold is really stable especially if you compare to bitcoin,only those who can patient will match well with gold

i think gold is more stable than any other investment and many people buy gold and hold it for long term. and for me, i would prefer doing both, trading and investment.

trading for making money, and investment for hold in long term.

If you want to make good profits in future then I think its better to invest in both of them as both have great potential to give us some best profits in long run.
why should dispute between investment and trade, but in fact you can use them without any problem, and you can get a double advantage by combining the two ways that
Investing involves the action of other people or like you are trusting you money in a certain company and you expect they will profit so you have your share of profit too, it is different in trading as you are the sole control of your decision and the outcome is base on your decision alone.

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

yeah, i don't who why people insist on calling trading as something else.

even when you start your own business and put some money in it, you are investing. it doesn't matter that you are doing some job too.

that will still be an investment too.

it is a lazy way of thinking that you can give your money as investment and sit back and enjoy the profit.

I just had to simplify my answer, it is good that you must invest your money.For some reasons,you can have your money be doubled in due time.But we must see to it also that you invest it with your knowledge and understanding on what your taking up too.You work hard to earned,then for me the best way is to invest it to be used in the near future.

That's what OP should be doing with his $200 worth of bitcoin, he should maximize the use of it to earn more out of it. Most of the time the easiest is investing it in investment program, which is sometimes good, but most of the time turn wrong when the program starts to rob you. OP could try trading too, it's a little less risky compared to investing it, but, the earning there is a bit smaller since you can't predict the right timing all the time in when to buy and sell your stocks.

Well for me i will try both to earn more profit, nowadays its hard to find an investment program that can give you good profit or not a scam, its very rare to find one. while in trading there is also no assurance that you can earn instantly if you buy an altcoin, you have to be wise when buying the good one to earn. both has risk but but better to try it and get profit.

The more you risk with trading the more you can theoretically earn. The earning there is not smaller because you can't predict the right timing, it can only be smaller if you invest in it a small amount. Keep in mind of course that you are not guaranteed to profit from trading, you should know what you are doing.

Not rare almost all investment program are scam not wise decision to invest your money there. buying altcoin is not an option you can stay at bitcoin trading the movement is fast and i think you can make profit if you know how to set a margin and how to analyze the movement of the price..
investing is one of the good if you invest your own money into skill than investing it to a company that you do not have any idea why they are giving free money.. everything in online needs hard work in order to earn..

Trading is taking risk on your own. Profit or loss, you'll be the responsible. Yes, it takes knowledge, ability to make right decision, dash of luck. Knowledge and ability to make decision comes with time and more n more practise ( in short, experience).
Investing is handing over someone else who would risk it for you. Here finding right investment-manager is task. Verifying claims from investment firm/manager are correct or not.  Here again profit is a variable (like those cute notification put in small letter "all claims about profit depends on market and are not definitive").

If person has some orientation towards trading then over the period of time trading could earn descent returns.
On the other hand if there is no orientation towards the trading then either find right investment-firm/manager or simply hold bitcoin for long.

Well for me, you can do both at the same time you just have to study well in what business you can invest, it should be well established and don't give all you 100%, if you have a PLAN A, of course you must have PLAN B, because its business. Its either you win or loss. The other half you can use to Trade, and you have advantage because you have investment you can a little idea about the business.

Whichever gives you the higher return and which you are more familiar doing with is the better option. If you find that you are better in trading than investing your bitcoin elsewhere, better to stick with what makes you more money. If after a while you get bored or you find that what you earn isn't enough anymore, maybe it is time to look for other sources. Then maybe, that's when investing would come in handy.

If you want to increase the amount of bitcoins you have then investing won't help, you'll have to trade and earn.

For me I buy whenever possible and hold them (investing)

Trading for me is selling only when there is a huge spike in price and a high probability of prices correcting later.

None of the investment programs/sites are legal, and sturdy and none of those are telling the truth... In short, when you invest in it think of your investment as if it is gone already, and don't expect, it's like gambling, you won't expect a return unless it is already in your hands...

if you have a PLAN A, of course you must have PLAN B, because its business. Its either you win or loss.


Having  a plan and an option is good, however, if it is just the same and will be trying again the same mistake in investing, then probably you will still fail at the end... A back up plan should be something that is almost sure since you can't commit the same mistake all over again...


The other half you can use to Trade, and you have advantage because you have investment you can a little idea about the business.

going 50 - 50 or even 30 - 70 between investment and trading is good, that is the better plan compared to having a plan B in investment...  Smiley

Find a manager who would manage money very difficult. And expensive. Better get your own personal experience and start trading. Through trade can succeed

In my case, trading is good, as I like to see quick returns, so on weekends I sit in a chair with my laptop in my hands and do some trading on altcoin exchanges.

Ok, to understand investment and trading better, I give example.
Investment is something in which you bet on horse and he is running race for you. Trading is something in which you yourself ride on horse and run the race.

Trading requires more of skill, investment requires more of luck. It is not wise to decide any one between them.

I like what you choose, altcoins trading is very profitable if you have more time focus on it. The price can move like skyrocket and if can predict it will, your money will grow substantially as well. It's like gambling but it offers bigger chances as we can analyze and determine the outcome based on the relevant news that may affect the market.

It is always the right time to look for new sources of income

In fact, what you think of as a stable period you should rather consider as a temporary respite you managed to secure. You should consider this period as the right time to search for opportunities and always be on alert looking for both new sources of revenue as well as ways to expand the already existing ones. As Alice said, we must run as fast as we can, just to stay in place, and if we want to go anywhere we must run twice as fast

I strongly agree with you, altcoins trading is a good investment especially now, it is good to invest while they are profitable. Just please be careful with what coin you are trading to. Just make  sure to invest with the coin that you've seen has a great performance for the past months and to have a right strategy.

The gains that can be obtained through altcoins trading are higher, in fact, due to the greater volatility that there is in that market. But the chances of making the right moves are smaller, as it is a more unpredictable market compared to other markets. Moreover, it is difficult to choose the right altcoin to invest, since once there are a large number of altcoins, this can make the investor be confused when choosing this.
