Trading requires market speculations so profiting from it is tough cause of how volatile the market is, although an experienced trader would know how to manage risk and avoid too much loses compared to someone that lacks experience to an extent for instance you can't compare a trader that's good at reading charts and know how to set stop loss and take profits to someone that can't properly do that.
However no matter how good anyone is at managing trading risk, it's still not compared to investing in Bitcoin, Bitcoin investment is more reliable if someone can be patient and focused on accumulation than bothering about that current performance of the market, long term holders have never been disappointed for holding longer.
No matter your ability to read charts or experience in trading, the main point is that it is too risky and it is no where compared to investment, and of course, you stated it above. So, I think there is no point trying to give some credit to trading experience and/or knowledge as a yardstick to measure an extent of risk or loses a trader can make compared to an inexperienced trader. It's best we stay off from trading, and concentrate on Bitcoin investment as buying Bitcoin consistently using the DCA strategy offers a more peaceful approach to building and growing ones portfolio and/or future investment through investment, rather than chase Short time gains and live under panic all in the name of reading charts and monitoring the narkey

Your friend became very greedy after withdrawing his profits several times and that is why he repeatedly observes the market to withdraw his profits. He basically started trading like that which is why he was losing time and again due to his little experience. Your friend did not have much experience which is why he always made wrong decisions and despite your repeated warnings, he misunderstood you. However, he may have realized it after making losses. However, such losses are necessary in life because without such losses, experience cannot be gained.
Wether with much experience or not, a trader will always lose money repeatedly because that's how trading works. Very risky and full of losses. He might have been happy when he made some sales and got some profits accordingly to you, but the main point still remains that a trader will always lose money no matter your level of experience in trading or how long you have been involved in it. That's why the point here has always been that guys get away from trading and focus on Bitcoin accumulation and/or investment since it have proven a store of value for years of existence. Investments have been better than trading. There is no comparison However no matter how good anyone is at managing trading risk, it's still not compared to investing in Bitcoin, Bitcoin investment is more reliable if someone can be patient and focused on accumulation than bothering about that current performance of the market, long term holders have never been disappointed for holding longer. Just because it has given good results in the past does not guarantee future results. When you say that no one will be disappointed if they hold for a long time, you are giving unnecessary extra assurance. Many people can be disappointed even if they plan to hold for a long time. If you buy with money that is beyond your means, if you do not have an emergency fund or if you need the money within a few years, you may have to sell at a loss during a major downturn. So it is quite difficult to say that no one will be disappointed if you hold for a long time. You cannot eliminate all risks by simply extending the time frame. At the same time, buying within the appropriate purchase amount, emergency fund and your own financial capacity is probably more important.

I’m a newbie here and I’m getting started with investing in bitcoin, I don’t really understand if I should be investing and still trading at the same time, I’m also wondering that bitcoin investment is about long term holding, so I don’t really know if I should be interested in your trading salmon, from what I have been reading recently is more about buying and investing in bitcoin for a long term, and not trading, how would I be managing trading risk, when I don’t know anything about trading.
My honest advice to a newbie is to focus on investing, long term investing because trading is much more risky for a newbie without experience and skills. Long term investment encourages discipline, expecially when trying to make profit over time which longterm can help you achieve, no matter the volatile nature of bitcoin, if you remain consistent, patient and discipline, your consistency will pay off in the long run. At the stage where bitcoin experiences a dip, and you remain patience, you don’t allow your emotions influence your decisions, overtime the market will rise again and at the end of the day, it turns out to favour you, since you didn’t make a wrong decision selling when bitcoin was experiencing a dip. But with trading as a newbie, during that short term when bitcoin becomes very volatile and a dip happens, you tend to loose out massively and end up selling.

Trading fit give person quick profit, but the risk wey follow am too high, and no be everybody fit handle that pressure.. Na why DCA make plenty sense.. You go just dey buy small small with time, no need to dey stress yourself about every market movement or dey monitor chart 24/7.. For most people, that kind approach go give better peace of mind and better results in the long run..

No doubt, it is true that Long term investors feel relaxed. And that is because after making Thier purchase they will just log out from whatever exchange/ wallet they are using. the next time they will visit the market again is when it's time for them to make Thier normal routine buying of bitcoin. However long term investors doesn't have the time to be monitoring the market 24/7 because they know it is too early to engage themselves in such practice, then again there journey is still very far so keeping a close eye on the market can't increase or even add anything to Thier investment.

I agree. One of the greatest advantages of a long-term strategy is the sense of peace that comes along with it. After you have secured your position and your Bitcoin, watching its price every minute doesn't make any difference most of the times. Many times it just results in an emotionally-charged decision because of either fear or greed. This does not mean that you can forget about your Bitcoins when it comes to a long-term strategy. Even though you won't have to be aware of the price all the time, staying up-to-date with anything related to the protocol, security methods, and self-custody will come in handy. It is always better to monitor the fundamentals rather than candles on the chart.

The matter of mental peace is the main reason. At the end of the day, if someone can stay with mental peace then it is possible to stay comfortably. Trading always keeps a person under pressure, so it is not possible to stay mentally peaceful, but on the other hand, investing is comparatively more peaceful than trading. In the matter of investing, it is necessary to invest carefully in good coins, only then will mental peace be possible. For example, if someone invests in altcoins, they have to stay a little worried but if (I/You) invest in bitcoin, it is possible to stay completely at peace. That is why, even in the case of investing, good coins have to be selected so that there is no need to stay worried later.

For most people, that kind approach go give better peace of mind and better results in the long run.. Trading is definitely risky especially if you want to make a profit in the short term. To make a profit accumulate Bitcoin regularly for a certain period of time such as at least 4 years. If you can successfully manage a 4-year cycle and your profit is satisfactory at that point, you can withdraw some percentage of the profit and build real wealth. Accumulate Bitcoin regularly you have available discretionary income. Success in Bitcoin investment depends on how consistently and for how long you are able to continue with the DCA method. To be persistent in long term Bitcoin accumulation, it is important for you to focus on one thing and that is that the investment should not be stressful for you because if you are financially stressed, it will not be easy for you to reach the set investment goal.

Trading shouldn’t be an option and it shouldn’t be considered for someone who wants to have a good investment plans someone who wants to have a successful investment, who wants to invest in bitcoin for a longer term, when someone is talking about short term investments, then you should immediately know that the person is more interested in quick profits and gains, which is why it’s more important to focus on long term investments, long term investments isn’t guaranteed, but it provides risk management when you invest in a long term, when you stay consistent it also helps with risk management. Nothing is guaranteed while making investments, which is why you should be more focused on long term investment, because that is something that could benefit you for a very long time, trading is more risky than making an investment for a long term.

Maybe that's your own understanding of what short investment in Bitcoin mean, remember that it's advised that people should hold Bitcoin longer for atleast 4-10 years, that's where short and long term comes in short term is holding for an interval of 4 years while long term is holding for about 10 years whereas anything below this period i mentioned especially below 4 years which is a full Bitcoin cycle is trading and not investment. A Bitcoiner should be able to hold for 4 years to be called an investor. Every true Bitcoiner should follow the path of investment than trading, nothing is guaranteed for both but Bitcoin investment is a less riskier option than trading.

None of this method is sure nor predictable though the long term investment method is preferable because within the long run the price should have rise to give a reasonable amount in addition to the investment amounts, but this does not mean that the short term investment method is totally bad for someone who wants to go into Bitcoin investment for short term he should keep constant and close watch on the market to know when it is favourable to sell off, at times most short term investors make cool profit but It is not that easy, because it is a stressful method because you need to always watch the market changes, while this is lesser in long term investment, in long term investment all that's needed is consistent investment to keep accumulating and storing more.

Yes of course dey feel the same way the both of them involve risk of money ,the different is how your take your own risk. when it comes to both of them only invest money you can be able to lose incase you lose, don't you go and borrow money for investing , because you might end up regretting all of people do such mistakes in our life.
Risk management is indeed a very crucial aspect when it comes to investment. This does not mean that there is no difference between various kinds of risks. The worst thing that an investor could do is borrow money and put it at risk. In my opinion, the best strategy would be to invest only what you are comfortable with losing and keep calm. Definitely borrowing money isn't an option for someone who want to invest,due to some reason like 1. Investing in bitcoin is actually long term,except foe one who's trading which is risky 2. Bitconer is sometimes volatile, what if you borrow and bitcoin even goes lower 3. It is indefinite, and non-predictable Thats why Discretionary income is one of the vest decisions to make or have before investing

To stay in the long term, you need to rely on discretionary income on a regular basis. Trading is risky, especially if you intend to make money from Bitcoin in the short term. Borrowing money to buy Bitcoin is not a taboo, but you need to have options to repay the borrowed money. Let's say you are buying Bitcoin regularly and your intention is to hold it for a long term period of 4 to 10 years. If the price falls or a bearish period occurs during this period, you may want to buy aggressively. If you do not have cash flow, you should take advantage of this opportunity to reduce the price even by borrowing. Your intention should be to build a large Bitcoin holding, not to sell during a price increase, and for this you will need to properly evaluate each bearish period, which is one of the characteristics of a smart investor.

Bitcoin is not sometimes volatile but rather it is always volatile that is why traders make loss most atimes because of the volatility and it is also the volatility that makes them make profit sometimes.

The discussion about borrowing to buy Bitcoin is a tedious one, but it is a very important one because many investors make emotional decisions. There are both new and experienced investors. Borrowing depends on your financial capacity. The amount of funds you borrow to buy Bitcoin will increase if the price drops further in the future because you will have to pay interest on the borrowed money and capital size will decrease. The combination of these two will not only cause you financial loss but it will also cause psychological stress. I think you can buy Bitcoin by borrowing if you have an alternative way to repay the borrowed money. It is better not to borrow with the expectation of buying Bitcoin and making a profit from it because the market is volatile. My personal recommendation is to accumulate Bitcoin for the long term based on your financial capacity through discretionary income.

Loan isn't discretionary income so you guys should quit trying to make it look like they are the same. And it is gambling if person start to be investing in bitcoin with a loan. Loan can place person under a lot of pressure, it has interest fees, it has due date payment, and sometimes even when person have a source of income, disappointment can come where person will be unable to get money to repay that their loan. And if that kind of thing happens, person will have no choice than to sell their bitcoin because they don't have a choice. Imo Investment can never thrive and survive on loan.

Trading requires market speculations so profiting from it is tough cause of how volatile the market is, although an experienced trader would know how to manage risk and avoid too much loses compared to someone that lacks experience to an extent for instance you can't compare a trader that's good at reading charts and know how to set stop loss and take profits to someone that can't properly do that.
However no matter how good anyone is at managing trading risk, it's still not compared to investing in Bitcoin, Bitcoin investment is more reliable if someone can be patient and focused on accumulation than bothering about that current performance of the market, long term holders have never been disappointed for holding longer.
No matter your ability to read charts or experience in trading, the main point is that it is too risky and it is no where compared to investment, and of course, you stated it above. So, I think there is no point trying to give some credit to trading experience and/or knowledge as a yardstick to measure an extent of risk or loses a trader can make compared to an inexperienced trader. It's best we stay off from trading, and concentrate on Bitcoin investment as buying Bitcoin consistently using the DCA strategy offers a more peaceful approach to building and growing ones portfolio and/or future investment through investment, rather than chase Short time gains and live under panic all in the name of reading charts and monitoring the narkey Like long term investment na the safer route, especially for Bitcoin.. Trading fit give person quick profit, but the risk wey follow am too high, and no be everybody fit handle that pressure.. Na why DCA make plenty sense.. You go just dey buy small small with time, no need to dey stress yourself about every market movement or dey monitor chart 24/7.. For most people, that kind approach go give better peace of mind and better results in the long run.. Trading is more riskier than investment and it comes with loads of mind stress. A lot of people will chose peace of mind over stress and that is what DCA is giving. Stress free strategy. Looking at how much success in long term investment we have. That's to tell you the amount of relaxation investors have. A natural investment strategy that completely avoids this excessive market pressure is the only DCA strategy, it is a very effective and very simple investment strategy, those who understand this strategy correctly and can build their portfolio using this strategy correctly, they will definitely be able to achieve something good in the future. At least compared to trading, there will be a much better chance of success in long-term investment, if we think about the long term. But before that, we need to understand whether we are capable of holding an investment for the long term, or whether you have the financial capacity to invest consistently, we have to decide to invest by considering all these things. But those who go into trading, in most cases, always face losses, it is very risky.

DCA is an investment strategy that involves setting aside a certain amount of funds regularly and is very suitable for beginners, for those who want to start investing in bitcoin, I really like this term because it is a very good approach and can be understood logically, rather than listening to a lot of theories that will ultimately incur huge losses, with the DCA method it will be much more understandable.

It's not about setting aside a certain amount of funds be specific about this funds discretionary income is actually the income to use when buying bitcoin while the dca strategy makes it easy for low income earners to still be buying BTC with as little discretionary income they have either buying it weekly or monthly just depending on when your discretionary income is available and hodl for 4-10 years or even more too.
