If you follow everyday, trading is better than investing. Investors are not happy these days

thanks everyone for your valued feedback. so, If I understand correctly:
-for beginners long term investing is the better option? -better stick at investing if one doesn't know technical analysis?
however, some people also recommended to trade 50% and invest 50%. I feel and correct me if am wrong...
-as a beginner I should invest around 70% in top 10 coins for long-term view? -for trading, 30% should be ok? now, the question is do I trade in the top-10 coins because of their market-cap and stuff? Or do I also trade in new upcoming projects which can either wipe my money or give me some good gains as well? -there can also be the option of buying low, selling high and repeating the process - I guess its called swing trading. But, the thing which makes me a little worried about this is that if I choose to do it with 100% of my money and buy coins at lower rates, sell them at higher in the hope that it will again hit low and if it doesn't, then what?

I just check https://coinmarketcap.com/ a few times a day and have joined a fb group on cryptocurrency - nothing more than this..

I think both have good and bad points so what to do? Just try to do both and prove for yourself which one is better.

Investing is a lot better for stress levels as well as profits. All you have to do is buy and hold BTC since it's supply is limited. If you trade you are losing precious bitcoins that will continue to become more valuable.
hmm true but what about buy low and sell high?

i'd go for both to diversify but not exactly 50-50. if you have a lot of free time to research and trade, trading can be very rewarding, if not then put more in investments.

Hi everyone...
Just a newbie and am planning to put some money into crypto. Now the thing which is stopping me is whether I should go for trading as the currency is volatile and can give some quick gains or buy it and sleep over it for a few years. Or should I go with 50% trading and 50% investing.
Need experts guidance please
If you are busy person then I suggest don't do trading because it will require a lot of monitoring on the prices which means you need to allot many hours and it won't work if you have a regular job but if you have much free time then enter trading.

I think it would depend on where you are good at. For me trading is quite risky so i would just work in the marketplace section and i will invest my time there to get some bitcoins.

When you trade BTC you're indirectly investing in BTC, but investing can be in many form. It's always better to understand in what you're spending on. Money isn't the only one, you're burning time which also burn your opportunity cost. A. Feel You could try some airdrops given for free, there's plenty of it - enough to get a feel how wallet, storing and distribution works. Or you could decide to spare $100 and play around with it. It has to be a value you did not mind LOSING. B. Learn You could search for 'blockchain' and 'cryptocurrency' to learn at first. Then find your preferred coin again, to study how it actually works. When you take either A or B is satisfying, you may proceed to trade (assuming you understand trading) or the simplest investment; buy&hold.

Both have their own side. you can invest you bitcoins in some altcoin or some casino or dice site. It will surely give you profit as casino always wins in the end. But it can take time and profit making process can be slow and in some cases really slow.
While on other hand trading can be really fun and profit making sometimes. You can win upto 400% or more per trade. Trading is really a game changer sometimes.

You should practice with a portion of funds to see where your talents lie. Some people are great at investing and terribad at day trading, some people the opposite and everyone somewhere along the gradient in between. Good luck

Either way, you need to have a knowledge base for both. And if you are ready to learn more, then you will find out your way for some time later Just don`t hurry while learning.

For a newbie, going directly into trading can be highly risky. You need to have proper understanding and knowledge of various aspects before investing your money in trading, so if you really got some money to invest in crypto then the first move is investing money in Bitcoin. Simply because Bitcoin tops the list of crypto currencies moreover it will surely give you better returns over the time, also the risk factor is very less as compared to another coins. Meanwhile, your money is invested in Bitcoin you should study about various altcoin their road maps, ICO productivity, graphs and other important factors and then come back with proper knowledge to invest money in crypto.

Very similar. Investment is simply trading but holding for a longer time.

Thanks to trading we are able to get richer. The price of BTC is growing and in my opinion trading in coins is a very good solution. You just have to find an honest trader, a trusted man who will not fool us.

If you want to trade do not over trade you can trade 1-2 times a day. Profit not form number of trade. You lost 1% to change for a coin to another.

It depends on his knowledge and experience, as he can do more exchanges and make a profit that is much larger than quantitative limitation.

Investing is the way to go for me. Trading requires a lot of knowledge about the market and really takes being a full time gig to really be successful at it. Bitcoin will also continue to become more and more valuable so I'd rather hold long term.

both good to earning profit. so try first in investement because in investing no need any knowledge and experience so nothing to worry about this. next trading, trading is very important and we have to handle carefully. because trading need more knowledge and experience so you have to investing and doing trading need money and experience.
