What Is Bitcoin Trading and Why It's risky?

[Potato Chips]

It is trading your bitcoin into goods or services. Trading into other products, it is more profitable I think. You must have good sales talk, know how to trade and know your products better to make others trade to your products. It's risky sometimes because you don't know what will gonna happen if you will earn more or having more profitable.

It's my first time hearing that kind of trade on bitcoins. how do we profit from that? Have you tried it yourself? i have heard trading goods to goods

using fiat? is it the same from that. Altcoin to bitcoin and bitcoin to fiat are the only ones i know. they are tested profitable to do online. i don't know if

that method of yours also does.

i think trading is not risky if you know about all coin.  when you buy you find her low rate and sell high rate. if any invariants it's price is low you wit some time

Many say risky because the price can change anytime and wait until the price rose from the price when buying it could be long maybe the profits not proportional to the time spent when waiting

Its all about how much patience you have and how much you can control your emotions. Sometimes people panic and sell or buy with emotions that is when Trading is risky, Otherwise it is planned calculations all the time.

In the bitcoin earning platforms, Trading would be the best option for everyone. They just need a skill to make trading in right way and earn profit. If you fund around 100$ to 500$ also you can start trading and see the price chart continuously, Just aware of scammers around you thats enough to make profit from trading.

This is not exactly gambling and the principle is understandable even for a child, you buy when cheaper and sell when expensive. Nothing is difficult, you just need to catch the right moment.

Hello folks!

I'm thinking about starting to trade with Bitcoin, but I see people saying that It's risky & almost like gambling.

I think that I mis-understand the meaning of trading.

For me trading Is for EXAMPLE, buying Bitcoin when It's at 550$ and selling It when It's at 670$. This Isn't risky because If Its value doesn't Increase, you'll just have to keep It until It gets higher enough, Is this trading?

I would really appreciate If people clarified more! Thankx

op what you said is what traders called buy and hold but if we what to talk about trading is a very wide view. In trading we have buy and hold, margin trading, arbitrage trading and binary option trading. Trading is also different from gambling, in trading you have to analyze all the data using technical and fundamental issues but in gambling you only play on luck.

Technically when you are trading, you are also gambling since you're putting something at risk expecting that it will take profit on the option that you have chosen. The thing with gambling is that it is very ambiguous and not limited to playing in the casino, slots, sports betting or whatnot. Investing is a gamble—even buying bitcoins is a gamble as well. Every single thing that you do that includes risking something is gambling in its core.

Yes, buying bitcoins is also a gamble. Nobody can say what will happen with the crypto currency tomorrow or in a few years. You can lose everything or become a winner.

Bitcoin trading is a platform where you can find all altcoins where the traders buying it in the exchange to think that they can grow it through doing trade whether day trading or long term trading. It will only be risky if the traders will become neglectful and lack of knowledge in trading methods.

What Op mentioned were right and no doubt about it, even still there is risk to loss if crash happen in the future but who knows. If you buy bitcoin at $1000 and sell it at $1300, than it is $300 profit. Invest on bitcoin for long term will beneficial obviously as the value constantly rise up and all you have to do is waiting for a while. I consider trading as a plan with strategy according to the market condition which has higher chance to get profits instead put your money for gambling and rely on luck.

Trading = any activity that involves the exchange of two commodities/assets/currencies for a potential profit.

With bitcoin trading, it's based on the same concept as Forex trading.

You aim to make a profit by buying low and selling high, or shorting bitcoin when it is too high to make a profit when markets fall.

It is risky, very risky in fact that indeed it's almost like gambling especially if you leverage your trades. But it requires skill - unlike gambling.

I think what you're saying somehow belongs to trading, you buy bitcoin when the price is low using another currency and selling it when the price is high. Almost have the same idea with investment but still its different. Trading is not as risky as gambling, we can say that they both lack of assurance when it comes to income but still gambling is riskier, because in gambling you base your profit in your luck only itself, but in trading if you have skills and eyes on statistics then you can even assure your profit every time you trade, yes they're risky but the chances of winning is different.

It's easier when you use bots or make proper plannings with the targets according to the rate every day. If the market doesn't go your way then you just have to hold for a longer time to make some profit. In case of Bitcoins you'll always make profit as the price is increasing gradually.

Trade bitcoin is the most reliable of all coins, but in any trade there are risks. You need to constantly learn and follow the market.

[BitcoinPC]

trading is one way to gain an advantage. the advantage gained from the selling of our coins.
we must be smart in choosing the time to sell and buy bitcoin. trading has less risk.

If you comparison the trading with gambling, than trading has less risk. Otherwise, trading is also risky. When newbie start to do trading, than in the first year, it is hard for them to earn money from trading. Experience wise, everyone could start to earn bitcoins from trading.
But i am also not agree that trading is like a gambling, only risk wise people think that both are same.   

[Apened]

Bitcoin trading is not easy because of so much volatility of the price so in just a matter of seconds or minute there is a chance for you to earn or to loss some amounts.

Wise people don't actually consider gambling and trading as same since they differ on their purpose and how it is being played. Trading is market based, thus a trader is getting advantage of market. Unlike in gamblimg, it is luck based where in a player's opponent is the house edge which is too risky since hous edge's probability of winning js higher than a player's probability of winning.
