Is cryptocurrency trading easy or difficult?

[LogitechMouse]

I remember in 2015 I managed to buy my first Bitcoin very cheaply, for 200 or 300 dollars (I need to find my old bitcoin wallet to get the exact price). But my mistake was that I didn't hold that long.

In 2019, I also bought bitcoins and stored them. But many people have now learned to hold Bitcoin for years.

Is it possible to trade cryptocurrency daily or weekly and make a profit? Are you able to make money from trading?

Well, it's not only you that made that mistake. There are many more out there that did the same, and now having the same feeling as you right now. I would also do the same as well if I only knew Bitcoin way back in 2015. I might buy some of it, but I will not hold it for a decade because... I don't have plans on doing it back then.

Don't worry because I've earning Bitcoin since 2018 through signature campaigns and I've been converting them ever since. Imagine if I only held all of the Bitcoins that I have earned up until now. My life would be different from where it is right now, but it is what it is. Dwelling from my past decisions will not change anything. The best thing to do is to just move on, move forward, and make better decisions for the future. As for trading crypto daily or weekly and make a profit, it's possible assuming that you're an expert already and you already found a strategy that will give you weekly profits. Professional traders have their own strategy where it works for them, and they're making money on a weekly basis.

I have made money from trading already, but if I will consider all of the money that I've been used in trading, I'm still at a loss overall. This year has been better compared to last year. I'm making small profits here and there already.

Buying and selling a click away, there is not difficulty in that.

But if you want to know about making money from trading, then it is a difficult process and requires patience.

I do agree that old timers have seen prices much lower, I started with a price of ~600-700$/BTC back in 2015 and look at where it has raised to now. It is defenitely possible to make money over long term but the choice to invest in crypto is personal. If daily trading is not your thing, go for long term holding.

Basically, crypto trading is easy or not depending on the trading knowledge you have mastered. In short, crypto trading is generally the activity of buying and selling the crypto assets you buy, what type of crypto you buy is also one of the main considerations for making a profit. financially.

There are several types of crypto trading features generally used by users, such as spot trading, futures leverage, stop-loss, margin, order types and so on, in essence all of these trading methods are risky, But if you master and fend off each of these risks, of course you can make a profit in trading.

If you've learnt about and bought bitcoin since 2015 you're expected to had understood that investing in bitcoin can only be profitable when hold in the long time, which means it's not a new development of investors discovering recently that bitcoin is a long term asset.

Trading isn't common as the way investors could just buy and hodls without having to undergo the risks of the unpredictable volatility in the short time.
To stand in good trading position or to be a profitable trader, you must attain a high level of criteria with good studies of predicting volatility, good financial management, risk bearer and must have trading plans or budgets.
After all, you're still not going to be guaranteed to win all times as a day to day trader.

This is directly related to the skills you have and even professional people in trading also experience losses at certain times so achieving consistent profits in daily or weekly trading is difficult to achieve, especially for people who do not have good trading skills. If asked whether people can make money in trading, perhaps the answer is yes because many people are successful in trading, but it must be remembered that trading is quite risky for people who do not have the skills. I can make a profit in trading but at the same time I also have the potential to lose money in it and it depends on how you trade by relying on skills or just following the trade like a normal person.

When bitcoin was still in the early stage, most people that bought bitcoin during that period didn’t hold bitcoin, because most of them didn’t have much confidence in bitcoin then. After making some profits, they decided to sell because they were thinking bitcoin price is going to crash, and won’t be able to rise again.

People do trade bitcoin daily and weekly and they still make profit, but that doesn’t mean they won’t be losing also, but there profits will just be more than there loss. There are some people that depend on trading as there only source of income, but I don’t always encourage that, if you want to be a trader, then get something doing also.

I would say it's easier said than done, because while it might be a click away for someone like you and me because we have been into technology and have been using all sorts of electronic devices for very long, so it's not difficult for us to use an exchange platform, but for someone who has minimal knowledge about these things, it's not as easy as ABC; they are surely going to struggle to understand how things work in an exchange, and they will need complete guidance about how they should do it even if they are educated.

We often say that these things are easy, like making trades, using exchange platforms, or even using wallets to make transactions, but they are easy for us because we have been using them since the beginning, but someone who has just started using cryptocurrencies, and they are seeing exchanges and wallets for the first time, they are surely going to have a hard time.

Also, I think the difficulty in trading is not only in the process of opening and closing trades, but it's about understanding the market and being able to make profits from it.

Trading is very risky. It is not easy to make money from a trading platform or trading is not an easy way to make money. If trading platforms were an easy way to make money, people would put trading platforms at the top for making money and everyone would use them. I myself am not successful in trading platforms. I have lost most of the times I have traded, which is why I do not consider trading as an easy way to make money.

However, professional traders who can analyze trading signals and the market well may be able to make money from trading platforms, but that is very rare. However, I would say that those who do not have trading experience can especially make short-term investments instead of trading, in which I think they will be profitable instead of losing.

Cryptocurrency trading is never easy. However, many people think that trading is very easy and rush into trading. And they gradually face big losses while losing. Trading requires very good technical knowledge and analysis skills. Not everyone has this and not everyone can achieve it. Trading can never be called easy. I have never gotten good benefits from trading. Even if I could make a profit for some time, I had to accept losses later. So I think trading is very difficult. Just buying and selling a coin is not trading.

I concur with the fact that trading of cryptocurrencies is not easy. It appears easy to hold Bitcoin now, however, in 2015 or even 2019 it meant having to wait and have a solid faith in the project. It can be traded on a daily or weekly basis and some traders do make regular profit but it requires technical skills, an understanding of the market, discipline and risk management. Most of the newcomers approach the market with a view that it is easy money only to lose when they succumb to feelings like fear and greed. It is possible to make profit in the short term but maintaining the profitability in the long run is the hard thing in crypto trading.

Usually when people ask this kind of question, i think it is advisable that they should not trade, because it is obvious they wouldn't know what they are doing and the only thing they'd understand is how quickly they would lose their money. That said, OP, you talked about hodling bitcoin, it may just be better to continue that way, at least until your learn and understand trading for yourself, and at that point in time you'd not have to ask us this sort of question.
