Trading Or Invest ?

[mulia sabee]

if there are any coins stored then you should sell them now as the market conditions are positive, but if you don't have them you should be able to trade in the short term and always monitor the market.

[SistaFista]

For now, if you want to be an investor, we have to be careful in making choices because the market situation is experiencing a downturn, patient and careful research will determine the final result, the current market condition is more suitable for long-term oriented investors.

Become investor is the opposite of become trader. To become a good trader, we must know when we must buy and sell in short time.
On the other hand, we need long time to hold and be patient to become investor so we will get profit from what we invest.
With the current market, i think both trader and investor still have opportunities to gain some profit.

if there are any coins stored then you should sell them now as the market conditions are positive,

Market is in dip. So I think if any coin is stored, it will be okay to sell it after a few more days. Now you can buy coins if you want. Because after the correction of the market, pumping of all the coins will start again.

However, investing for the long term will not be right now. Trading will be more profitable now than investing.

[capcaypro]

both have great potential but you must first know the consequences when you are investing or trading.
If you want to become an investor, maybe the risk is other than because the investment is passive, you benefit because you don't need to participate in carrying out business activities, you just need to stay silent without doing anything but you will get the benefits that have been made previously agreed, but here the drawback is you don't can make your profit target maximally because there is already an MOU about it.
when you choose to trade maybe you will be free and free in determining profit because trading itself is actually more passive because you do it according to your wishes but the risk is much greater because your profit and loss are determined, you must be really careful in trading so that you do not suffer a loss.

but if you ask about my opinion, I think I would suggest trading because here we are freer to do something we like both in terms of the advantages and disadvantages that we get because we are running the business ourselves.

As for most of the replies, this goes to the ff:

*Time
1. Trading - Plenty
2. invest - Not enough

*Capital
1. Trading - Small
2. Invest - Medium to large scale

*Risk
1. Trading - High
2. Invest - Low to moderate

for me I prefer investing because this year I believe that it is a bullrun year, while trading maybe I take advantage of some of the momentum of the coin movement, besides that because of my limited abilities, trading for me is not the right choice, therefore I invested in the top 10 coin, and plans to sell it in Q3 of this year

Investing would take much of your time because you are going to leave the coin for longer periods for it to grow and it doesn't require much stress compared to trading where you need to have quite a good knowledge on the technical and fundamental aspects of trading.

You are right mate, investing on cryptocurrency need patience. If we look the chart of crypto coins, we know that crypto is profitable to be held for few years. The profit is not small if we compare the coins price few years ago with the current price.
In trading, the most important thing is not patience, but timing. Once you have advance knowledge in trading, you know the timing for buy and sale.

For now, if you want to be an investor, we have to be careful in making choices because the market situation is experiencing a downturn, patient and careful research will determine the final result, the current market condition is more suitable for long-term oriented investors.

Apart from that, we also have to know clearly the capital gains and dividend distribution policies so that we know where our investment is going because this is very important for investors who want to invest their money so that we can set our profit target in investing. because not a few people who are just starting to learn about direct investment invest their money without first thinking and without first studying because they are new and not experienced in investing. so they can't set targets and don't know where their investment will go.

if the crypto market is undergoing positive changes then you better trade, because you will be profitable if the market continues to rise, but if the crypto market is experiencing negative changes, the best step is to invest and wait for the crypto market to rise again.

[EiKaGlaShPriSAThWEl]

When the altcoin price was experiencing a positive change I was confused ... whether to invest or trade directly ..
your advice is advice to me .. thank you

I have tried investing and I say I enjoyed it. At first I just want to trade but I did not monitor the market. I missed the chance to sold my coins when its price is already high. Of course it made me feel sad and loser. I set aside my crpyto things for a while so the coin remained on my wallet. Early this year, BTC is flying to the moon again and as expected other altcoins will follow the leader. Finally, I claimed my profit.
I know investing was not really my intention but I have learned that all we need is patience if we are holding a good coin.
Both trading and investing is beneficial but it is up to you on which you can do.

In simple terms, actually what you convey is very easy to carry out.
but the fact is that planning in choosing assets for trading or investment is not that easy.
if you want profit then forget the hype and FOMO. it will only trap those with no experience in the market.
the most important thing is to first understand the skills we are better at. we are better at trading or at investing.
After that study, the market and assets are better for investing or trading.

yes, it is true what you say when the market has experienced a correction in a few days then trading should take precedence, unless the token price has actually experienced a big decline, then it is also very good time to invest.

Agreed.For trading you need to be up every single day and watch and study and have a big knowledgde on the trading aspects.While when investing you just have to wait and watch the show go on !

Even then you can't cover it all. That's a bit different in the standard stock markets as they are less dynamic. Although as we have seen even the stock market can move fast if a crisis happen, like Coronavirus.

The news for crypto are all now all over the internet. Hard to keep track.

Go for trading, try to make a small profit out of the market fluctuation. Even with small capital it is possible to make a small earning out of trading. Here, the important thing is finding the right cryptocurrency to earn without big risk. Once you start learning automatically you'll find the right cryptocurrency, initially there'll be losses.

If you were able to overcome the losses and make profit, then take the capital and leave the profit into trading and capital into investment.

If someone is experienced in trading and is not afraid of the risks associated with it, trading can be much more profitable. However, if someone wants to sleep well, it's much easier to just invest for the long term and just watch Bitcoin's price hit the new ATH every few months.

[tabas]

Trading is more profitable then holding but has a way bigger risk in loosing your coins.

I did more profit in holding than trading. I've proven that to myself that I like holding more than trading. I do small trades but they're not as big as the profit that I get in holding.
It's just stressful but you have to overcome it and you need to be firm with your decisions if ever you want to start selling.

[arapgeceleri]

In some cases, trading earns you more money, and in other cases, investment makes more money. The important thing is to do the right thing at the right times.

[slashz9]

Being a trader and an investor you can do both, but to become a trader it will take more time because you have to know market conditions and study them, investors are also not easy because you have to choose projects that must last in the long term so that your investment is not lost, because most of them new projects can disappear in as little as a few months
In essence these 2 things have a risk just how do you minimize it.

[Dexion]

if there are any coins stored then you should sell them now as the market conditions are positive, but if you don't have them you should be able to trade in the short term and always monitor the market.

Reading the market situation is also important for now, so we can decide whether to trade or invest

your advice is advice to me .. thank you

Cryptocurrency trading/Investment all depends on you level of experience in the market. Some of us feel we dont have enough trading experience hence we want to just invest in some good projects and watch the market till our target is met and some of us might have a better trading experience and will do regular trading of our crypto assets.
So to me, if you have the knowledge and have the time, trading is good while investing and hodling for a longer period is good as well but like I said, depends on you experience and time.
