What is better - cryptocurrency trading or investing?

[Subbir]

If you make the proper decision at the proper time in crypto it's possible to form a profit in trading. There are many traders who don't know the proper time to shop for and sell in order that they don't choose future investment the trading is sweet, you'll get profit a day i'm afraid to require more risks because i want to find out more about trading so I like better to invest for a long time seems to be more profitable than trading.

If you have the skills to trade and always make good profits, I think that's great. because trading is not easy and also risky and besides that you have to do it full time for maximum results.
I personally prefer long-term investment which I think is simple but the results are satisfying because I have a real job so long-term investment is the right choice for me while in this industry.

As far as I know, investing in BTC, ETH, and BNB is the best choice. Also some presale tokens and trading it   

I mean if we could always buy at the perfect timing and sell at the perfect timing then we would make a lot of more money with trading than investing. So every time the prices drop we sell, and will rebuy once the prices rise again. Unfortunately we can't predict the perfect time to buy or sell very easily, there are a lot of factors to consider. If we buy and sell at the wrong time we will make a loss. Which is why investing seems to be more profitable in the long run.

Indeed! The tough part of trading is the timing we can't accurately predict the market now even we already done doing our good research.

There are still chances that the price will go not according to your plans, you need to have long patience and and a good nerve to handle the risk that it takes when working with this kind of business, unlike with investing if you have set targets then you don't need to worry just hold and wait.

This is my take on the subject - trading doesn't make sense with assets, which are likely to go up considerably in the future. With such assets, the long term investment strategy needs to be followed. On the other hand, there are coins such as Dogecoin and Ripple, for which the long term potential is in doubt. You can try these coins for trading. If you sell Bitcoin at some point, then there is a good chance that the price would go up within a short period of time and you will be forced to buy back at higher prices.

I have been a day trader but want to know if it’s a good idea to hold bitcoin for long, whether it will be more profitable?

Bitcoin is very good for a long term trade since every 4 yrs the value of bitcoin never stop rising. I suggest you not to stick with just one coin because there are lot of altcoins there that is also valuable to hodl for a long term like ADA, ripple and ethereum. Proper timing will give you more profit so goodluck.

As a good trader it is a good decision to invest in different currencies as a trader there are several types of cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin In recent years, interest in cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin etherium and XRP has grown with interest. Why it is not difficult to see a major development in financial technology could lead to a complete revolution in the crypto financial services industry.

There are ways to obtain passive income and they are quite profitable for example having a Divi Masternode, it has five levels and one can choose the most convenient or Staking that is cheaper.

If I'm to choose a masternode, I'll choose other than what you've suggested. The investment needed for that masternode is quite high and expensive.

That's why I'll choose other cryptocurrencies that are very adjustable through staking and not through masternode.

[Qikiye]

Cryptocurrency investment and cryptocurrency trading are two very popular means of making passive income. Many people prefer either of these two mediums Again, many people use both means as a means of earning. However, cryptocurrency trading is a favorite of mine.

That's right by investing in several coins it will be better than investing in just one coin,
things like that not only apply when investing but when trading too,
every coin has a chance to make a profit but we must be able to choose exactly which coin is really promising

The first thing you are told to decide when you are going to jump into trading the bitcoin market is your attitude when it comes to investing. Do you want to make money fast? Do you think that bitcoin is the future and holding it long term is the best option? By understanding your investment period, you can find out which trading strategy is more suitable for your needs. If you're someone who thinks bitcoin could be worth millions someday, then you're probably going to stick with a long-term strategy. If you only intend to profit from bitcoin price movements, this is very suitable if you use a short-term strategy.

While this is important at the same time this is just the beginning, after all we must understand that even if we would like to become an investor or a trader that does not mean that we actually have what is necessary to become one, maybe you want to become an investor but you realize that you have great talent to trade the markets and no patience to hold for the long term, in that case it is better to become a trader instead of a long term investor as you have more chances of making money that way.

You would need to test off and find out which one does fit out for you but actually you can do both.Trading can be considered investment since you do throw some money on it to make it grow but somehow you would

really be needing some effort for you to make money so its up to someone on which one would really be effective or do really have the passion for them to do so.

Its your choice on which one you should choose and stick on what gives you benefit or the one you are  comfortable with on dealing.

Investment and trading are all good and both profitable but it depends upon the capabilty and determination of the bearer. A successfull traders is a skilled and will oriented on all aspects of market movement. The same as investors there are such thing need to consider while selecting coin, research and tracking is a must before selecting the choosen coin. So in all i believe trading and investment are same better.

[bitzizzix]

I prefer investing because I find it easier to do it than to trade, and I don't think there's anything wrong with choosing just to learn which one is more suitable and you are proficient between the two.
and when I'm in this industry I try to find out how it works and the time it takes, and in my opinion trading is not an easy thing and time is the most important thing because doing it must be full time and also must be proficient in choosing the right coin for trading and also profitable, and there are many other things that need to be studied properly for maximum results.
I finally chose to invest because my main reason is because I have a steady job and also mind so there is no time if I choose to trade, investing doesn't interfere with real work I only buy it when the price is low and hold it for the long term.
so in my opinion choose both depending on the situation and mastery of which is more, to produce good results and will be more profitable if both are done, and provided that both are your core work and you also have plenty of time for both.

Eventually when you already into this business you'll be able to find this attitude towards the business, either way the main thing

remain the same, you are here trying your luck to earn decent compensation. Whether it's trading or investing you alone can decide.

Many failed during their short stay as they did not work well with how they should treat this field of business.

I have tried being a day trader and an investor both to see the difference between them. I can summarise my experience like this. When you are a day trader, you can't make nice amount of money unless you invest a very high amount of money. Because in a day, there is not a huge change in the price generally. As long as you have a little amount of money, you will get almost nothing.

On the other hand, being a HODLer for example, is very advantageous in the long run. I tried it by setting a price goal to sell. When I achieved my target, I made a great deal of profit. I don't know in how much time I would get the same amount of money while being a day trader.  

[Princejebs]

I have tried crypto trading, like day traders and i have also tried investing for long terms and let me tell you that as a naive i have lost money in trading while made money in investing.

But another trader will tell you that what you just say above is false. There is high tendency that you didn't study the popular guide before venturing into trading.
Trading has work for me but for long and short term and investing as holding coin for eternity is always difficult, you keep watching your portfolio making moves that trigger your emotions everytime. Even when I don't intend to watch my wallet, I always end up viewing the gains and loss.

Well it sounds good if you will grab the two options if you have enough money to sustain this as your capital, all depend on your capital that is willing to take a risk. I will rather choose the two, investing and hold it for a long period of time and set aside a small portion of the money, and do trading. These two options are acceptable and profitable in the future, the problem now is how you will manage your investment and trading, you should know at least the market regarding this matter. However, if you really choose between the two options, investing is more secure but getting profit will perhaps take time too.

[Charot12345]

I prefer to invest than trade where I often feel pressured when the coins I have are sold an  price a coin go high
if i invest i just  wait for the right time  when i take profit without any stress

yes, me too. invest is good especially for a long term and less hassle. But we just need to be careful on where to 'invest to avoid scammer. So that it is worth it to wait and risk our investments. But still trading and investment have advantages and disadvantages. Both have limitations so if you are a good trader then trade then if you want to invest then go. It also matter of timing on when to trade and invest.

You need to also take into account that each trade that you make is a taxable event in many countries so you are supposed to pay taxes on each winning trade that you make reducing your profits even further, while when you hold your coins the opposite happens and if you hold for more than one year in many countries this makes those profits you get when you sell to be exempt of any tax, which makes holding even more attractive than trading.

I tried day trading many times but it wasn't much profitable for me and it was taking my time really a lot. I thought that it was not worth it as a result and stopped doing it. And I directly started to make regular investments like for a short term or long term. And I have realized that I can make much more profit compared to day trading especially in a long term. Now, I'm a long-term investor the most and my first choice is BTC. When I want to make short term investments, I choose top altcoins the most.
