Does Trading have an advantage over investing??

[gabbie2010]

Trading yield profits on short term basis while investment could take a long term before earning profits, meanwhile a skillful and experience trader will earn decent profits Week in week out although with some small losses however such a trader must equipped with a good trading strategy coupled with a high reward to risk ratio and proper money management thus will make enough profits which will outweigh profits earned on investment, however trading is highly risky compared to investment.

Trading and Investing both are somewhat similar because it is a profit and loss business so one who can make money or loss depends on the skills of the person who is trading or investing. You can make more money with trading but it is not possible to keep making that money consistently so you will make profits and losses in the next trades so if you round off it then you maybe didn't make any profits in total.

But being an investor gives you the advantage of having better control of your profit margin and also can achieve with enough patience.

You definitely can make more money but only if you are good at trading. Yes they are both similar in nature but in my observation, their difference is the time frame, investing requires a long term to get a bigger profit out of it while trading is on the short term with the aim to get as much even though the amount is small. The advantage of trading is you only need one good trade to upset every losses you have incurred so far but that is the only thing that I can think of, investing is still the best way to make some cash because it does not require a full attention unlike trading where you have to watch the market as much as possible.

Trading or investing ..does Trading pay more than investing

It’s not guaranteed that trading will always pay you.
Trading can also make you bankrupt.
Trading is like Gambling, so if you trade without proper knowledge then surely you will face losses.
On the other hand investment is a slow process, it will give you profit, but will take more time.
And to the answer of your question is yes, trading will pay you.

If you take trading like gambling then you are very prone to lose your money at a glance, this are 2 separate things, gambling is like taking a guess without knowing what you are doing or having a half knowledge but trading is a total different thing, if you are not knowledgeable don't go taking a guess with your money because you will lose them for sure.

That will not make him profit from trading instead of getting a loss because the trading needs skills to analyze to find a good time to enter the market and exit the market. The more knowledge you have, the more chances for you to get the right coin to trade and you will have the opportunity to make a profit. But do not forget that trading will not always follow what you want because the market will move to any price without notice.

Contrarily, you need only one bad trade to lose all the profits you made for the day/week that is why trading is risky as well as profitable.

You can make a good amount of profits with the investing on more of the times than your trades in reality because your trades will eat the profits you made and at the long run you will be with the same or little higher amount than your capital while being an investor there will be the certain percentage you will be having after few years.

Of course trading has more advantages than investing, therefore I prefer to trade in making profit from crypto. I love to do day trading,
so I can collect profit every day. What maybe we can't get from investing, because I think investing to make profit in the long term.
So investing requires patience, because usually a few years later you can feel a sizeable profit from investing. As for me who is not so patient,
won't be able to HODL for too long. So I prefer to make profit from trading, although I only get 2% profit every day. If I accumulate it in a month
it can generate a profit of 60%, this is very big in my opinion.

If you are a good trader and has a good skill in the actual trade, you can earn a lot and can able to compound
your earnings were in the end you can still do invest in some of the other altcoins in which you think it has also
a potentials to give you profit of course.

Ah, the eternal lie. That anyone, with the right training and experience, can be a "good trader". Just look at various statistics from research done on traders. That the vast majority of them LOSE money. And these are experienced people whose actual jobs it is to trade. Not to even mention all the retail couch traders thinking they're about to make a killing from their app while having dinner.

Where are your trades?

This is the truth. Trading hugely depends on luck and being a "good trader" honestly only a small factor in deciding whether we gonna make profit or not. Most of the  so called "trader & influencer" I've ever met from social media making money from referral and such. usually they also hide their losses cause their primary source of income is not from trading but from getting share of money the newbie they lured into trading deposited to some trading platform by using their referral which also means keeping their image clean about being trading guru.

Trading or investing ..does Trading pay more than investing

Both of them are good and they both pay. I have seen people that got rich through both ways, so it’s not really about asking which one pays the most, you should only be considering what will work for you, because if it’s working for others doesn’t mean it’s going to work for you.

It’s just the like the price of Bitcoin dropping to 3000 dollars and let’s say a wise investor invests at that 3000 dollars and now that the finally got close to 50,000 dollars they have made more than 100% of their money, that’s a lot of that they have got, in my country that amount is worth millions. Then in the day case of a day trader who really don’t want to invest but always just trading and switch back to USD or USDT, they might see losses that will stop them from reaching the extent this investor have reached.

You can lose on one day in a trading and can't recover from it but with investing, you are not affected by the ups and downs of prices because the long term growth is evident if you look at the market, trading is pretty risky at first and you might not break even at some days and most wins are not that worth it, the 60% that you are saying is only possible if all the trades that you have done are all winning, it is difficult to get a winning streak when trading. That is my opinion about the advantages of investing over trading.

There's a little different on it, in investing you are holding a coin for a longer period of time maybe months or years, depending on the timeframe you are looking at and it all depends on the coin you are holding if it will pump in the future so there's a chance that it will not be profitable or it will be, in trading there are so many way scalping, arbitraging, spot and etc yes there will be a much more money in this sometimes, but if your coin in your investment is really worth it, you will get more in investment rather than trading.

[Latviand]

If you have a low risk tolerance and want to prevent volatility, the way to go will be to invest.

When you just want to hold and play safe and you don't want to deal with the volatility then investment is a good option for you.

If you don't have the guts to make yourself become adaptive in the market then it is much better for you to hold until it is profitable enough for you.

But trading could be appealing if you're more of a risk taker and would like the opportunity to earn big returns quickly. It is essential to understand that trading and investing need not necessarily be mutually exclusive.

But there are also people who become successful in trading because they grabbed the opportunity to trade as soon as they can and make their asset grow more.

At the end of the day, it is still your own decision on what are you going to prioritize to help yourself grow your money.

Trading is always risky throughout, not just at the beginning. As long as you have trades open, you don't realize any profit or loss, something very tricky and psychological happens to traders who have open trades.

Investment on the other hand can lose value, but you always have it. 1 BTC is always 1 BTC:)

I think neither trading or investing has an advantage over another; our biases about both trading and investment will be a reason to state that one has advantage over the other. If you are a good trader who earns alot from trading, you will say trading is better; if you are an investor, you will claim investing is better. to me, both are rewarding; and if you can perfect either of them, you will have lots of gains from crypto currency

None is better than the other. To be honest, both of these money making methods depends on the individual. I have seen  successful traders that failed as an investor and successful investors that didn't do well in their trading career. Both of these endeavors provide a god opportunity to make money but like I said, it depends on which one the individual can do.

Trading involves constant analysis of the market regarding it next movement while investing simply seeks to find promising assets to put more in and allow for an extended amount of time.

I don't think this is what I said, really, but yeah, I guess that's another way to look at it. Forums was awash with "good traders" in 2017 for example, people who actually thought they hit the secret for making profits consistently. Entirely disregarding that during that period, almost anything you did would have eventually netted you profits. Ignoring that right timing and luck had more to do with anything they made than skill.

These "pro" traders charging others for signals should be a lesson for logic. If you made money trading, you wouldn't need to make money selling your advice.

[CryptocurencyKing]

They both offer a good chance to wealth but, it all depends on approach to it, how well do you know it and what your willing to risk. It's a perspective thing as to which offers more. A trader would easily tell you trading is the best way to go while, an investor although trading could be seen as investing in a way but, let's disregard that. An investor would always tell you investing is the best way to go, starting with a little capital and earning huge in good projects within a given time frame.

[sayaya17]

Trading differs from investing, but from both we can make a profit. It’s just that the most striking differences lie in the  timeframe,  the  principles
and strategies are also different. It hides many opportunities for trading activities and crypto investments, but that should not be a reason to jump
into the crypto market quickly. Crypto trading can give you huge  earnings  in minutes, days, and even weeks, but you  can also lose everything in
seconds due to the volatility. So generally you can earn either from trading or investing, as long as you have mastered it.

[Janation]

Trading is better for me.

I know that investing also gives a good profit in time but trading gives more chances to earn a profit. For starters, I would recommend investing so they could also look at the price changes that are happening over time. If they can adjust and learn things about trading, they could start at low price and slowly increase the funds they are using.

But if all things go the good way for both trader and investor, you know a trader has better possibility of having greater profit. The daily trader in example making profit every time in trade is going to have far enough profit than just investing. Using bitcoin as example, it didn't rise since after 2017 so investors didn't have any profit but traders were going in for daily profit. So I believe traders can have bigger profit.

If you are looking for highest gain then trading is fit to you but it includes risk that you can lost all your balance or half of it for choosing a wrong currency to buy . other investment can give only small interest but it is secured compared go trading that you are actually gambling your money just for the reason that you want to gain more.
