with this picture, it already provides an explanation without the need for you to be complicated explaining, because it is quite effective for beginners who do not understand the different flow of discussion. This is really helpful, but one thing you miss is that you don't include the source the image was taken from. oh or maybe it's your personal collection.

Trading is a risky investment. Trading is as short a time as possible. And investment can be anything. Most investments are long-term. It is not let out that there will be profit and loss in trading. There can be profit and also loss. And the chances of losing investment are very intense.

Trading is a risky investment.

Yes, trading is a risky form of investing in crypto currency market, and also Investing itself is also risky because in crypto currency nothing is certain. As an individual, it is up to you to determine if you are more suited to trading or investing crypto currency

Trading is as short a time as possible.

Trading crypto currency does not necessarily mean it has to be short term; there are short term, mid term and long term trading targets in crypto currency market

[Innerpumper]

Your cryptocurrency world is in between. It can also be referred to as a short-term investment but it is called trading. Cryptocurrency trading is risky because 80% of it all has a very fast movement to make profit or loss.

Trading and Investing does have that similarities too.

Consider Trading could neither be;
Short term and Long term
It does also depend neither Technical and Fundamentals too.
Can also re-invest or shall we say cost-averaging

Those infographics above do particularly shows on traditional markets but here on crypto
you can spot out some changes.

That's a really good infographics about trading and investing. Both of these ventures are lucrative ways to make money on and off the crypto market even though it's more better in the crypto world since there is plenty of opportunities that abound in the space.  Speaking from a personal point of view, I have done both trading and investing activities in crypto and I can't really say which one brings more money since they're both very lucrative. But I do like investing more since I only have to concern myself with project researches and making funds available to invest instead of reading charts and analyzing numerous market data.

Dear friend, crypto trading is clearly a very big risk, but it must also be remembered that where there is a big risk there is also a big profit to be obtained. so the greater the risk, the greater the benefits. it is proper that it will happen like that and all who trade will surely understand the consequences that will be obtained.
if you are good at managing trades, now days trading is very attractive to follow.

what investment are you going to invest, some are safe but some are also risky. If there you is an investment in stocks, it is clear that there will be risks, maybe not by investing in gold, houses, land and apartments. so just choose what you deserve to do and get used to doing it, this is very important.

In short, investing is something more relaxed than trading, trading requires 100% dedication, investing you just need to keep track and be aware of when you can make a profit.

Another difference is that most investors have enough money to face the time that is necessary, the market speculators mostly use that money sometimes for their expenses and needs, that is why they are all the time waiting for market movements.

Most traders always look for the line of least resistance, it does not matter if the price rises or falls, the trader always seeks to take advantage of any movement, not in investment, in investment it is always expected to be a single movement and it is to be in trend bullish. In market speculation, some traders combine technical analysis and fundamental analysis, also some traders may enter the market with several stocks or cryptocurrencies and speculate, while the investment is mainly for one stock or one cryptocurrency, if it is done for several cryptocurrencies the Investment would be divided and the earnings would be diversified and riskier than investing with 1 cryptocurrency. In the advice Warren Buffet gives, he indicates that it is better to do the study corresponding to the chosen stock with great care and then invest and wait for long-term profits.

As far as I know, trade and investment are not that different. They are the same, wanting to make a profit. All the images you share and their captions are used for giving. Maybe a little difference is in terms of who did it. As far as I know investment is passive. We do not run independently.

In contrast to trading we are more active in controlling what we will do. Perhaps the difference is that investments aim at creating wealth over a long period of time by buying and holding. Whereas trading aims to make a profit by buying and selling for a much shorter period.

[Mr.Scott]

Since trading is quite risky, I firmly accept investment. However, blending the both task at the same point give me more confidence. 1-10% running crypto trades, 25% goes into the semi-long term and rest of the portfolio HODL for the long term.

It is risky because you are banking on short term gains which is of no effect when it comes to investing because in the long term, your investment are going to grow and it has a lot of charts for proof. You don't have to experience loss in investment, choose the safe ones to invest in.

hahaha..... sometimes anyone wanna share his point of view.

agree,,,,its abit more risky. you can earn alot in crypto because someone should loss alot in crypto or someone will pay higher than you.
you will have to know anything you can get & some skill you can have in order to survive.

some people can pay their life with crypto trading or investment, but no one can make sure it will be forever

[pankowri]

Trading and investment are very close. Yet few differences exist. My intention in saying the two are close is that we expect to profit. That profit can come from both trading and investment. The difference, as far as I'm concerned, is the risk and the time. The risk is higher in trade and lowers in investment. The investment is usually for a long time and the trade is for a short time. But there is no obstacle to that. Some trades are for a long time.

[ethereumhunter]

Both trading and investing have a risk but will depend on how each person can handle the risk and minimize it to profit. If you can not learn or do not have time to learn to trade, then investment will be your choice because you do not need to check the market too often and you stick to hold your coin for some time. But you will not make a profit daily or daily because the market will have a gap of the price that the trader use to buy low and sell high, so besides investing, the trader also makes a profit in a short time. You should choose what you want and never follow other people without research.

examining the differences between trading and investing

In my opinion, trading is something which requires perfect timing and when you are not sure about that then you can go for investing.

Timing the market is biggest differences between trading and investing.

If you do not have good knowledge on technical part and you do not have enough time to catch the right time to enter and exit the market then you can simply choose the another opportunity which is nothing but investment.
Yes, you just need basic knowledge of which one will be good and profitable and then just buy and hold. After your entry, even market goes down, you will not panic as there will be no stop-loss and you may book profits after months to years of waiting.

Wow, what a helpful infographic. This will really help beginners to learn about trading and investing. Because there are still many beginners who are confused about the difference and which is better between the two. Both trading and investing have their advantages and disadvantages. It depends on how you work as a trader or holder. Because of the way it works, we can optimize these advantages and reduce the impact of the shortcomings. However, it is not easy to do this, if you are not used to it or you cannot, you don't even know how to trade or invest. Everything is needed persistence and seriousness in learning it, we must know in advance how or what to do before directly plunging or practicing directly. Because, if we immediately start trading or investing without any preparation, it will actually make it difficult for you in the process. Better, prepare in advance and learn what is most important about it. You will feel the results for yourself, if you keep trying. Failed? it must have happened, but if we want to get up and learn from these failures, in the future you will achieve the success you want.

Keep up everyone!

Trading and investing are both profitable and risky. It's all depends on how you trade and invest. Both needs patience but on trading you need strategy and you should understand the technical and fundamental analysis. In investing, you should have more patience and must have knowledge about the project that you want to invest.

No risk go gain. I think there need more analysis in trading every time and man who can make judgement well success is waiting there for traders. On the other hand investment sometimes missed from team misbehave and mislead and long term issue also worked there. So i think trading is best if he catch right thing in right time.

Trading is a risky investment.

So is investing alone too. Both are risky and they're always be.

Trading is as short a time as possible. And investment can be anything. Most investments are long-term. It is not let out that there will be profit and loss in trading. There can be profit and also loss. And the chances of losing investment are very intense.

For both of it, if you're patient and wise in deciding, you'll have the profit but if you're mind changes from time to time and you're letting yourself caught by your emotion. Then, you're the one that's going to lose in the end whether you're a trader or an investor.

Choose any of them where you're confidently going to be better. Whichever is the choice and you're profitable on it, enrich what you have chosen.
