Long term vs. short term investing

[Noilee]

Hello my dear Bitcoin brothers.

I would like to ask you about your experience with day/swing trading vs. long term investing and also,
what was more profitable for you and what are pros and cons for both ways of trading?

This question interests me since market is very volatile and it can get quite easy to exploit daily range for a quick small profit.

Thank you fellas.

For me, Long term investing is good. It helps me a lot and I profit a lot when the bitcoin value goes up to the 20,000$ mark. Less hassle in long term investing but just invest only a small amount because bitcoin is unpredictable, it's value may go up or down.

Long term is much better than in short term, because you can earn good amount of profit in long term.  You don't worry if you choose long term and not so risk unlike in short term. Because we believe that the price of btc on the future will increase more.

it depends on the needs of investors
.....if you want short term profits then take altcoins
.....if you want long term benefits then take bitcoins... bitcoins for long term investment source will reduce the chance to loss in it...

In terms of short term and long term investing, it is better if you will put more money in short term rather than long term because short term can give you best profits because you can sell at the peaks while at being long term investor you cannot get the best profits because you might lose some money over the time like you bought bitcoin at the price of 8,000 USD and then you hold it for long term and now you are back at the price of lower than your original bought price so you took a loss.

At the moment I have made 3 long-term investments in the bioktoin, the etherium and rajpll, which from this in the next 1-2 years will go up at the price I will sell, the rest will continue to hold, and at a near distraction I trade when I know that soon there will be news related with this coin

Long term investment may range from months to years but short term investment means intra day transactions or investment for few days only. 
Small investors not having enough knowledge about crypto market must stay away from short term investments.  But they may opt for long term investments after primary study about the market.  Deep study experience though required for short term transactions.

In my opinion, always the long term investment is more profitable than short term. For example holding Bitcoin for some years already helped so many people to change their lives, and some oldest holders become richs just because they bought BTC with cheapest rates, and hold their coins for years until the price go up to $20k almost, a few months ago.

Long-term investing is much better than short-term investing.
If you want to make a little profit in a short time then you can short-term investing.
And if you want to make a good profit then you can invest a long term.
Long-term investing is not a risk and there is no anxiety.

This is a real truth that most of the people are doing either short term or long term trading and in my opinion both of them is a perfect way of making money but in case of short term trading we are playing with big amount of money with big risk but with the long term trading/Investment we can make big earnings easily because but surely this needs lots of patience otherwise profit are only name because sometimes in some cases we need to hold coins for one year + also .
So all this depends upon you that how did you see these both of the things and which one you like the most according to what you have and what speed of earnings you want .

I will go for short term investment,  because in daily trade you can gain huge profit, but in long term investment for sure you gain huge profit. It is your decision man, but i will go for short term. Trade and trade more. Just be patient and focus on trading.

Long term

[wheirs]

I prefer long term, because i tried short term investments this winter and because all market is super red i lost a lot!

[Rarahumaira]

It all depends on what you intend to do if you having or wanting to hold bitcoin for a long term I think you should go into long term investment since you want to hold for long but if you want to ride with the ups and down of market and like to make quick gains then short term investment is the best in other to easily cut you profits.

In my experience, you must be a long term investor, no matter what your heart says. In three years I gained about 17% of my initial investment, two more and we'll see where it'll become

I tried daytrading back in the day. At first I was making good profit, then with just a few bad trades I broke even, and sort of ended up wasting a whole day on trading. Never again. It's really just not for me, so I end up doing semi-long term trading instead(weekly trades).

If you like staring at charts all day and go crazy, then day trading might be for you.

Well trading is just a matter of needs, if you feel in need of money they trade it shorterly but if you can hold it for long it will be better like others do.
For me I'd prefer to have monthly trading so i can decide for the right to do.

In three years you earned only 17 percent of your initial investment? are you talking about bitcoins or any other physical investment?

Sorry for this, but it makes no sense...

Even if you invest your money on your localbank you can easily earn the double of that amount of money in a single year..

If you are on full time with bitcoin you can do some trading everyday of course trading with expert skills is a must, you must study first the news, the speculation the graph of every altcoin if you want to earn daily, ofcourse you cant just earn like double your money everytime, always remember do not be greedy if you profit on 15% to 30% trade, don't wait of 50% percent because almost all the time you can't reach that in every altcoin. Just be updated, read news about bitcoin and altcoins study altcoins if you will trade it

Long term and short term investments are not comparable because there are specific coins that has different potential and prices on the market, the best coin to invest is bitcoins because the growth is fast but since it was very good enough for you to earn profit then the price is also expensive so basically, you should invest on a coin that suits your capital in order to earn profit.

[pimacoin]

Long term is the key. short term will end up rubbishing your funds, especially if you're an emotional person.

I prefer inveting for a long time. It can give you a good profit. You should just invest and forget about it, don't check constantly, don't worry, when the price falls down. Investing for a short term takes much time and a profit is not so good.
