Which one is better. Bitcoin or gold?

[Oshosondy]

I noticed gold price to fall while sleeping in the night (GMT +1), around 1 am to 8am. But most time the price will rise during the day. I was trading tokenized gold which is not actually gold but its perpetual contract was on some exchanges. But I also do check the price of gold on MT4 to know what is actually happening to gold which confirms what I said about it.

I went short position several times and I am losing. But I think its price can easily be predictable. I am trading both bitcoin and gold and also I am trading some altcoins which are riskier but this is about bitcoin and gold. Which one do you like trading? I guess those trading gold will prefer to go long, especially around 8 am EST.

Well, I've never really traded gold, so basically, I am just going to for with what I am familiar with, which is bitcoin.
But all the same, I will take this as an invitation to learn more about gold, possibly apply a few trades to it and see how it goes, though I am not a frequent trader, like I only trade when ever I just feel like I should, more like a hobby or something I simply do just to catch some Cruz.

But again, that's just me, I am very familiar with gold on MT4, but have never thought of opening a trade on it, my focus has always been on bitcoin and ethereum, and sometimes when the crypto market is too unpredictable, I switch to fiat, like usd/euro, usd/jpy and so on and on.

Let me start with I am sticking with bitcoin strictly because I am crypto person not because of anything, i have seen many forex traders actually using some certain period of time of day to actually trade Gold, they sometimes short or long when some countries trade opens this things have actually made me think it is predictable but with some of the losses I see most times from some experience traders I don’t think it is predictable all the time.

The similarities between gold and bitcoin and why many traders prefers to trade it is simply because of their low volatility rate when compared to other currencies. As for bitcoin many prefers to trade it, because even if you don’t like that it is wise to analyze it first before taking other altcoin trades since they mostly follow its trend.

I don't trade gold, but I hold gold in physical form. I also trade Bitcoin, but I think Bitcoin and gold will be better for the long term. buy and hold.
gold has also had a good movement in the last 10 years. those who bought it when it was cheap and still hold it will be very happy.
but for gold trading on the exchange, I haven't done it. but if it's true as you said, a long position might be more profitable. although I also don't know how the price of gold can be profitable enough when the short-term price movement will be quite small.

[SamReomo]

I trade Bitcoin and some altcoins. I never traded Gold and there's chance that I might avoid trading it in future as well. Even only Bitcoin, Lite Coin, Ethereum, Ton, Solana, and a few such coins are more than enough for me to make my profits.

if someone wants to make good profits then altcoins can be good for that person but they are way more volatile and riskier than Bitcoin. However, if someone wants to make profits without much risk then of course there's no alternative of Bitcoin.

[GeorgeJohn]

You can not choose anyone of them without experiencing or practicalizing any of them as a method of investment, I know very well that both bitcoin and gold is in class of a digital currency and what pumped the price of bitcoin can equally pump the of gold, so the common thing in them is that gold has no much firm as bitcoin has right now, so at market in trading the demands of gold can enhance for skyrocketing the price likewise bitcoin, so the one the demands is needed most or higher than each other is the one the price accelerate higher, that's my own suggestion.

I actually bought some gold but I didn't buy gold to trade and till date I haven't traded any gold. But I have been successful most of the time in Bitcoin and Altcoin trading. But I have accepted risk and loss while investing and trading Meme Coin in Altcoins. Although you can easily estimate the gold transaction price and it seems easy to you, but it is very difficult for me because I have never traded gold so it is very difficult for me to get the exact price. But it's a bit risky for me because I'm still trading bitcoin and altcoin, although your gold trade is less risky for you but much more risky than when I traded in bitcoin and altcoin, but that's just for me. Simply put I would choose Bitcoin trading over gold trading.

If you want an asset that is less volatile and is more safe haven in the days to come, then invest in gold. Its value may consistently move upward without having such threats to suddenly move at the bottom.

However, if you want to be more thrilled and excited with your investment and get rich in the long run, trust bitcoin instead and invest on quite a big capital. The risk to lose is high but the chances to make you an instant millionaire  is also high. Just buy and hold for couple of years without getting tempted to sell, I'm sure you will make impressive and excellent profits in the future that will terribly change your life status after that.

If you are a trader then the decision is easy, go for bitcoin, a trader only makes money when the market moves, and the more volatility there is, the more money it can be made, and since it is obvious that bitcoin is more volatile than gold then bitcoin should be your first choice as a trader, the issue are the alts you are trading, as if you are taking your chances with meme coins and the like, it is entirely possible you could lose a great deal of your capital if one of those coins collapsed.

Both investors and traders need the market moving because if the market does not move, there is no price growth and no chance for investors and traders to take profit. Both investors and traders need volatility in the market to make their entries and exits.

To have good entry price, they will need market corrections to buy with cheaper price and chance to get more profit after market rallies and grows upwards.

the issue are the alts you are trading, as if you are taking your chances with meme coins and the like, it is entirely possible you could lose a great deal of your capital if one of those coins collapsed.

Altcoins are very risky because their teams are unknown in quality for development and dedication to keep up their project developments. Gold, Bitcoin have already been tested globally for many years and they have less risk to die than all altcoins. Bitcoin has already become a decentralized project in development that makes it nearly impossible dies.

I honestly like both but in terms of current usage bitcoin is much more profitable compared to gold. I also never trade gold because I prefer to keep it after buying it so there is not much to discuss regarding this. In the current situation after spending a few years in crypto I see bitcoin as one of the perfect concepts to achieve financial freedom. There is a force that drives us to choose bitcoin over others and the reason is much more acceptable to human common sense.

This drive is what makes some people feel it is important to choose bitcoin over gold. But if it can be used simultaneously it will be much better but I believe everyone has different views on this. All decisions must be taken based on mature considerations and involve knowledge in order to avoid unnecessary losses.

You should do what you think is right you don't have to try Gold just because OP or someone else is trading in Gold, as from the words of OP I can say he is also new to Gold Trading CMIIW. We all should first settle our minds about whether we need to do this type of trading or not.

However, just like BTC, everyone wants to go long even on Gold because people and I call BTC the digital Gold but with better benefits. I prefer to buy BTC, not Gold but still Gold is a good option. I don't do future trading so that's why I need more volatility and gold can't give me that.

[Dr.Osh]

actually, gold and bitcoin are both good. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages. Personally, I currently use bitcoin more than gold. That's because I feel that bitcoin is more flexible and easier to utilize than gold. However, my ultimate target is to have a lot of gold and bitcoin.
Gold has a very good rate of increase. Even if you look at it from the past few decades, prices tend to rise. It's safe to say that this is a very good long-term investment, and there's no need to think too much about it. Even though bitcoin has the same potential, we need special attention when investing in bitcoin. However, both have their advantages and disadvantages.

[WatChe]

Gold market is more mature and old as compared to Bitcoin. Moreover market cap of Gold is also high when compared with Bitcoin. Regarding OP question that which one is better, to me it's more related to your skills that which market you can handle. If I have to invest then I will go for Bitcoin since I have expertise in Bitcoin. I won't go for gold because I don't have any experience of that market no matter how much lucrative it looks like. 

[Adbitco]

I am more comfortable with the price of bitcoin and how I do gradually trade bitcoin than any other assets out there, though I don't know gold is being manipulated but for bitcoin is somehow possible to trade on it after making your research to see if there's good news that could push the price above expected, though it could be traded different ways either again the market or toward the market. Like when Green and or when Red. But most option traders do like trading when it's on red.

[mirakal]

It certainly depends on individual's preference. If you are a low risk taker, prioritize gold investment over bitcoin, since it's less volatile and is most likely to give fixed profits in the future. However, if you are a high risk taker, bitcoin is the best option. Where there is higher risk, bigger profits await, and bitcoin can attest to that. But of course, one should invest learning all the basics first, and certainly invest at your own risk knowing all types of investments cannot guarantee secured profits 100%.

Gold, stocks, real estate markets are all manipulated. In any free market, we always have big investors and retail investors, professional traders and amateur traders, there are manipulations from professional institutional entities to direct the market toward their plans and get profit.

When you spend your money to invest, focus on long term, you will be less affected by manipulations in the market. Gold, stocks, real estate, Bitcoin, if you use own pocket money to invest for long term, you will get profit and are likely immuned against manipulations in short term.

It certainly depends on individual's preference. If you are a low risk taker, prioritize gold investment over bitcoin, since it's less volatile and is most likely to give fixed profits in the future. However, if you are a high risk taker, bitcoin is the best option.

If you are a high risk taker, and want to use high leverage for your trading position, Bitcoin is still a safest choice for you. Because Bitcoin is a leader in this cryptocurrency market and if Bitcoin falls 10%, altcoins will fall -20% or -30% or deeper. If you take a same high leverage with Bitcoin and altcoins, you will have bigger risk of liquidations on your positions in altcoin than in Bitcoin.

Both are good. Bitcoin doesn’t take physical space and it is easy to send and receive compared to gold. Gold on the other hand has a history of thousands of years and it is not easy to beat that. Bitcoin’s marketcap might get bigger than gold one day but I can’t tell if btc will exist 100 years later. Gold will. That’s the biggest difference.

In the end it is better to own both. It doesn’t have to be one or the other.

If I'm not wrong then OP mentioned that he traded tokenized gold or perpetual contract of gold and that's also not physical. However, if someone wants to really invest in gold then he/she has to accumulate gold and wait for its price to move up and that's could be a tough job because receiving and sending of physical gold is always going to be tough as compared to sending/receiving of Bitcoin.

I don’t really like “paper gold”. To me it is not really gold, it is just another promise. I’d like to follow the old saying: “If you can’t lick it, you don’t own it.” If you follow this wise quote, you can’t get scammed so easily.

Sending and receiving gold is not that important since it is not a currency anymore anyway and bitcoin isn’t much really different because its transaction fees can get expensive pretty fast and it is still expensive when it is cheap.

Obviously btc with high tx fees is still better than gold as a currency it is like comparing 0 to 1. 1/0=inf. However when you compare xmr or ltc to btc, then they act much better than btc as a currency. They are cheaper and much faster.
