Trading or ICO

[cryptoux]

trading is more profitable than ICOs,because most ICOs are scam.
in trade you can gain upto 1000% in a single trade depends on market behavior.

In ICOs you risk your money for a long time and you are not sure if the coin will be successful.

I would choose investments in ICO. Trading, it seems to me, is much more complicated and requires a lot of time. While selecting an object for investment is easier and the risks are still less.

Hi, everyone. I got about $5000 to invest in crypto. Which one is more secure and profitable: trade crypto (yes, I'm a newbie) or invest in ICO?
I've made my own research and investing in several ICO's seems more attractive for me, but want to know your opinions

There is a risk involved how ever you proceed.
The risk of losing your money is low for now if you go ahead with buying trusted and heavily exchanged crypto currencies like bitcoin, ethereum or ripple.
In the long run, you will be making some extra money.

In contrast, if you choose an ICO to invest in, the risk of losing money is higher, but if you proceed with choosing the right ICO to invest in, the profit will be much higher.
Just make sure you'll be doing your home work and that you'll be joining a successful ICO program - one that has all the qualifications to go all the way.

One such ICO right now is trade.io.

Both have high risk actually. But in trading you can control the outcome and if you really are good in trading  you can have a steady source of income. ICO comes and go. And you cannot be guaranteed that the project will be successful or the devs will be faithful and will not run with the money. Personally I'll choose trading over ICO because I am in control. But a good ICO can be very profitable if you chose the right project. It is whether you'll choose a steady income or one time big time.

I think investment in ICO is riskier, we won't know what will happen with the project. most of the ICO's is scam. they only offer a great bonus. better trading when the coins already listed on the market and it's more secure.

If you are a newbie, then neither.
I would recommend put 60% in bitcoin, 30% in good alts in the top 10 in marketcap, 10% in more speculative stuff.
Then you can learn trading by working with very small amounts only for several months until you have learned the ropes (or decided that you don't like it).
One thing I would say is be wary of ICOs as you'll need to do a lot of research to determine if a project is good or not, and also there is often a huge dump as soon as they hit the exchanges.
Another thing you can do is participate in bounty campaigns and airdrops.

Diversifying your investment is a really good decision. You can earn a lot of profit by doing it. Trading can be more profitable if you have the right knowledge and skills. ICOs is also a good investment. Like what he said, you should be very careful when choosing an ICO to invest on. Because nowadays, lots and lots of ICOs have been appearing and it is quite hard to determine which one is a scam and which one is good project to invest on.

The number of Ico launching everday were totally increasing too fast, reading their whitepapers sometimes weren't enough we need to do more research and analysis before we invest as well when we do trading since we might earn more if we hold it a little longer.

I will choose trading for the long terms purpose or what we can say more or less passive source of earning money.

For ICO it is important to note that, not all of them are profitable or it may not be the case that they all will generate you handsome amount of profit all the time. Only few of them will come into market which can give you tremendous amount of money and you can benefit from he initial investment. Sometimes people get sucked into ICO because they never read the ROI value sometimes and it gets harder to carry the load of that investment until the right opportunity has arrived. So better think about the ICO is rare option of earning. Trading works best if you learn it step by step and acquire some analysis skills.

spreading your money into some investments is good it is better to that because in that way you can earn more profit than doing trading or ICOs alone and also, beware on the scam ICOs that just lurking around just to make sure that your ICO is very legit, then check if  there is a whitepaper and also, ask some members here if the ICO is legit.In trading the In trading the very important trait to have a good decision making skills ans also the knowledge in trading if you ave these 1 traits you will have profit.

[wantangcfftc020]

I think ICO is a good way to make you to be a good investor since you can learn to check whether some projects are promising or not, reading the whitepapers, learning the markets and so on.

[Plixs]

I think both of those things have the same risk and do not have different places. because of the nature of the world cryptocurrency have the same thing wherever it belongs. but to the question of profit, I would be much more leaning into ICO although it could just be that doesn't match expectations. But most of the profits can be obtained via the ICO, because of the advantages that we can get much bigger than trading. It's just that it all takes time, so we also have to have patience

[jasonjm]

ICOs are good source of income but beware of scam ico. Their is a lot of risk involved in investing in ICO. Trading on the other hand is also risky and if you have done market research then you can be successful in trading.

[regsintered]

With newbie you need divide the capital into several parts. trade and invest ICO with a small fund. When you have experience you will have more percent wins

For everyone, not newbie. 50% of all is longterm investment to BTC 20% to alts of your choice. 15% to try traiding on exchanges. And rest to invest in 5-10 ICO.
But the main not try to go 50% in one coin or one project except BTC

[danherbias07]

If you will join the ICO then best to know about trading too. Just spare some money there and try it.
Why?
I saw in telegram that a bunch of first time investors are having a hard time on what to do with their coins or they dont even know where their coins at or how to receive it.
If you already have the knowledge in the trading industry then you wont have much of that question. Right?
Just so to minimize that questioning in the ICO's developers end.
Out of 500 questions there maybe 400 are the same asking how to receive their coins.

You can do both at the same time but be careful and don't trust anyone where to put your money. If you are just starting and you want to go on cryptocurrency trading you need to understand first everything about the coins you want to buy and do your own research. But since you still don't have knowledge about trading start buying small amount of two different coins with small value don't go all in. Investing in ICO is more risky than trading for me because most of them suddenly disappear having your money in their pockets, There are some legit ICOs but we can't tell if the project will be successful. I also do both but I don't just put my money without researching and understanding because that's the key.

[orcuncanli]

icos are taking so much time bu if you find the right one its make your money doubled or tripled .however trading is not like that it depends on your skills

both risky, both with opportunities,

problem is the total market is impossible to fully understand.

I think that in this situation, you can try investing in a suitable tested ICO, only you need to invest a small amount. It is necessary to feel how it works. before investing significant amounts. For trading on the exchange, certain knowledge and experience are necessary. Here you also need to be careful and start trading better with small amounts and with well-known coins. The main thing is not to take chances before getting the necessary experience.
