Holding is better than trading

[michellee]

If those people continue losing, they do not have to trade but choosing investing. They don't have wasting their money for something that they don't know.

Holding will gives privilege to them in the future if the price increases. They don't have to worry if their money value decrease as that will change following the time.

But if you can learn trading, you can continue trading but you should holding Bitcoin for your long term investment. Trading and investing gives you more profit.

For those who already have good planning, it will certainly be good to trade and invest. But this may not be suitable for beginners. What might happen is using funds that were previously invested in Bitcoin to trade when their trading capital runs out. However, this might not affect those who have good discipline. It means they can really manage everything well.

The rate at which people are losing money from trading is high. I would say that trading is not reliably profitable, because what is the point if over 80% of traders end up losing?

You can’t be a trader without losing, so in trading you should always expect loss to happen, but make sure what your win from trading is more than what you going to lose, if your profit is more then it’s fine. How sure are you that over 80 percent of traders do end up losing, how were you able to get that?

Lots of people lose from trading because most of the people you see trading now don’t even have proper knowledge about trading, it’s something they jump into without even having much knowledge about it, so definitely they going to be losing. Professional traders are really making profits from trading, so I believe if you can take your time to learn about trading, then you will be making profit also.

Some people believe they will not incur losses, but that is unrealistic.

It’s not possible to be a trader without losing, you definitely going to be losing, so anyone you see claiming they not losing when trading is just deceiving you, loss cant be avoided, that’s why even professional traders trade with the amount they can afford to lose.

Those who always lose aren't good for trading, I suggest such people to start investing in Bitcoin instead of trading because in long term they will make more profit without any losses. Trading is for those who can make profit from it, those who always lose aren't good for trading and such people should better do something else than trading.

Holding is similar to a long term investment. It will require patience on part of the trader and this is lacking in most.

Short term trading has poor outcomes no doubt and I dont recommend it, but still people will try to make money from it because they want easy gains and quick gains.

Then obviously long term beats short term at least in case of bitcoin. But the trader needs to have the patience, which mean they should have a stable income, no debts and backup cash.

Those who understand the market well and know how to analyze it, have knowledge, experience and have acquired good skills in trading do not face losses. Although most people say that trading is a risky system, people lose their money here if they do not understand the trade properly. If you can make money in trading, you can get good profits in a short time, but you have to have skills in it, and it is not possible. Not everyone can make money from trading, so they should focus on investing. There are many people who have gained enough experience but face losses in trading, which is basically their misfortune. That is why I think it is better to invest for a long time than to take risks in trading, the possibility of loss is very low here.

I will disagree with you because if thr professional traders do lose money just that they know how to manage risk properly and they know when to stop and many other things like that,  so they record less losses and that is what it takes to be professional trader that's the difference some people don't even know when to stop trading some are driving by greed and other factors the only thing is for you to understand how this things works and then you are good to go, and that is why you see people making money from trading and you wonder if they are doing something different.

It is very important for everyone to know exactly what they are going into before they start trading and it is not even something that you need to rush, and within that period of time you can just hold that way you will use the period to even get more knowledge because understanding the chart matters a lot.

I also don't recommend trading but this is mainly for the newbies. But old ones can do both if they want to. This gives the points to the older ones who both experienced bearish and bullish markets. They'll also prove that holding is better because there is no need to be so good in trading. All you need to do is to be consistent with how you accumulate. Trader and holder both requires patience but I think that more traders are losing their patience when they see that their trades are not going according to their plans.

I get your point. For most people, holding Bitcoin is simpler and safer than trading. Trading takes skill, discipline, and experience. Many people lose because they rush or follow hype. Holding is slower, but it removes a lot of stress and mistakes. If you are good at trading, that’s fine, just don’t forget to hold some too.

Well holding seems a lot more preferable to many people than trading and to be honest holding does reduce a lot of trauma and stress from daily checking of the market each time. But both does have their own unique strengths and benefits.
 The risk involve in trading and the requirements involve in trading before one can be successful is quite much than that of holding and also trading doesn’t need shortcut before being profitable. A trader needs to put in the effort and hardwork together before one can be profitable and not only that but also emotional control and proper risk management and a lot more. 

[Maslate]

Holding is better than trading if it applies to bitcoin. But if you are holding newly launched coins in the market because they are quite cheap and affordable, and have attractive promises and narratives, then you are simply holding like gambling. And with gambling, you don't hold for profits but you're bound to lose in the end.

However, trading creates promises of high returns and rapid accumulation of wealth, but its simply not for everyone. Just because you enter trading then profits are guaranteed, that's not how it works. Majority of traders are still at a losing scenario, even the old and experienced ones are still at risk of loss. The reason why some have settled into holding their potential coins, at least they can make slow but guaranteed profits there.

Trading is not for everyone; only those with sufficient knowledge and good research can make a profit. For those who are new and don't have the minimum basic knowledge of crypto trading, if they keep losing consistently, in my opinion, they should learn first before starting to trade. Moreover, those who keep losing continuously should hold good coins for the long term. BTC & ETH are always on my priority list for long-term holding. There is a significant risk in holding random coins, as prices can collapse at any time, or it could be a scam. We must know about the Tera Luna coin. That was a top 10 crypto coin, if I'm not mistaken, but it was scammed in just a day.

The two are good to make income when you know how to apply knowledge that will make the income to start coming. You can buy and hold any good coin while you can buy to trade your coins to test if there will be favour in trading than holding. Holding is what some people are using to get what they want from crypto, because once they buy in the low price, they will like to hold for long to be sure that they will earn something big when it is time to sell.

There are two good ways to earn, one is risky and the other is relatively risk-free. Although there will be risks when investing in crypto, the risk is much less for those who buy with the intention of holding for the long term. You can also earn from trading, but in that case, the trader needs to gain proper knowledge about several things. In trading, the trader needs to know about various things, especially global events such as business, economy, political situation, etc. But in holding, there is no need to know so much. If the investor only buys Bitcoin to hold it for a long time, then he can definitely get good returns in the long term. The possibility of loss is high in trading and the trader needs to know a lot. On the other hand, holding is much easier and the amount of profit is also higher in the long term.

Trading is for everyone, but it's for people who have interest for trading are the ones that can make profit from trading, if you dont have interest their's no way you make out time and acquire new skills that will profit...

For those who are new and don't have the minimum basic knowledge of crypto trading, if they keep losing consistently, in my opinion, they should learn first before starting to trade.

i have found out that the reason why some people lose in trading, it's because they dont learn and understand properly the concepts of trading....Before they ventured into trading...

Moreover, those who keep losing continuously should hold good coins for the long term. BTC & ETH are always on my priority list for long-term holding.

Holding of coins is a investment, is not like trading, if you hold a good coin, definitely you will make a profit, i even preferred holding of reputable coins than trading, the risk in trading is very high.

Without sugar coating, trading is better than holding alone because it generates faster and more frequent returns, increased capital efficiency through trading with leverage, and traders can utilize more risk management tools.

However, in order to achieve all of these, you have to ensure learning with a longer time frame and learn not just its fundamentals but its technicals as well, and practice high emotional control as this is crucial in making a successful and profitable trade.

Trading is highly risky than holding alone, so if you can't manage the risk itself, better just stick to holding while patiently waiting for the best time to sell your coins.

What you say is absolutely true. Basically, it all depends on your knowledge and skill in determining which is better and more profitable. Trading tends to yield quicker returns than long term investments. However, the risks are much higher. Many beginners often get caught out by the lure of quick profits only to end up with significant losses.

My point is trading is suitable if you have sufficient knowledge, free time to continuously monitor the market, discipline and good emotional control. If you don't have all of these, long-term investing is usually much safer and more realistic for beginners. So again whether holding is better than trading really depends on your skills. But all traders hold assets for the long term even though they also take advantage of opportunities to profit from trading.

[Dzwaafu11]

you have two choices: either you learn and improve or you stop. there’s no shame in admitting something isn’t for you but at least try first to learn and find ways to improve your trading skills.

Sure. Is either you learn or quit, but the point to me is that you rather learn. Maybe stop for a while until when you have the proper knowledge to trade, don’t rush it’s too risk when you rush into trading you will easily lose money, and honestly speaking trading is not an easy task that’s why it always advisable to learn before trading.

Reason why many traders are not really making any money from trading is because they are not ready to learn, they want it very fast and I can sure you if you rush as a trader even if you are professional the moment you rush you’ll lose that money.

Trading better is only true in theory, not in practice. Because trading isnt a job where you just follow what you were taught and automatically make money.

This mindset leads many people to mistakenly believe that making money from trading is easy. As a result, very few people can make profit from trading, and those who truly succeed can be counted on one hand.

I agree with you that profit are determined by our knowledge, skill, and experience. But the truth is, long term investing is still much better than trading.

I agree with u . Holding can work well but it work  best for those who have another source of income. I know many people who rely only on trading and for them holding is challenging because it takes time and also if we see the current market condition majority of coins are down 50 to 60 percent or more . But that is how financial market works . So for them exit on a right time is best plus wait for a perfect entry.
 
And for those who have another source of income the best option is DCA in bitcoin every month or when they see a buying opportunity till next Bull run.

[Joy- maker]

Trading is not bad, but it's risky. If you are good in analyzing the crypto market or the stock market you can trade, but trade with caution. Only with an amount of money, you can afford to loss to avoid chasing after your losses. and as for those who are not good in trading, instead of forcing it just accumulate bitcoin. You can be accumulating bitcoin consistently till you accumulate a decent amount and then hold for long term. And as for me i am not that good in trading, but i due trade sometime, still i prefer to buy and hold.

...I agree with you that profit are determined by our knowledge, skill, and experience. But the truth is, long term investing is still much better than trading.

If you have the knowledge and experience, then why not combine trading with long-term investment? This strategy will help you make a good profit in a few years and at the same time make a small profit from short-term trading, which you can also invest if desired.
