Can small investors actually make good profit with bitcoin ?

[Sally9256]

There are not many traders out in the market that have earned enough profit through trading but we have many cases where people have to bear huge loses in trading. If you have enough capital then it doesn't mean that you can make profit easily in trading unless you learn and develop necessary skills required for trading. If you have huge capital even then don't start trading straight away with that rather start with small money and increase your money with time as you develop confidence in handling trading risk .

Our capital doesn’t determine our success nor trading outcomes, capital only gives more benefits when we have enough like using a bigger lots size and have the ability to open more than a single entry and still not feel scared when In loss. The outcome of our journey lays on our hand as a trader, if we seek much of knowledge in trading and learn some basic skills and techniques aside just the knowledge alone then we might make progress in the journey but when we don’t seek more knowledge then our outcome can easily be predicted.
 
Trading isn’t just like investment where we can go with just basic knowledge, when we go into trading with basic knowledge then we will see basic profits alone and more of losses.

Your own comment shows a double standard. You once said that capital does not determine results and success in trading, and in the next paragraph you give priority to the size of the capital. The main point is that the size of the capital can be small or large, but success in trading depends on the prudent method you use. Experienced traders follow the method of keeping the market conditions in their favor but beginners do not have that attitude. The high capital of experienced traders can lead to failure of planned and short-term trading strategies because there is risk in trading just like gamblers have the possibility of losing every bet.

This retardation is why trading is directly proportional to gambling or directly likened to gambling and gambling has been a bad advice since time immemorial.
Honestly, having enough capital should mean meeting up enough Bitcoin or more than enough Bitcoin very early it should not necessarily become a temptation into trading that can along the line even affect your hodling capacity as the case may or the way things happens (unforseen circumstances).

Starting with a large capital without sufficient knowledge and skills in trading increases the risk of large losses as well as profits. If a new trader does not know enough about market fluctuations, stop-loss, risk-reward, then a large capital can increase the amount of losses instead of solving his problems. Trading does not become safe just by starting with a small capital. Trading risks still exist. Getting good results for a certain period of time does not mean that the same results will be obtained in the future. Therefore, it may be more important to start small and gain experience than to start trading with a large capital before developing skills.

You say that trading is risky and you still want person to be starting small in trading, what make you think that you wouldn't loose even when you start small. So if you like use large capital to trade or if you like use small capital, losses can still happen, it cannot be avoided. Even those person that have plenty experience in trading still use to loose money anyhow.

This is why it is not a good choice to trade. Or it should be reduced down to the barest minimum. Person can just ongoingly invest for a long time using discretionary income and then quit obsessing over trading. Doing that will help the person to grow their wealth over the years.

They are somewhat related because if you trade and lose, there is no way that your money will return. Therefore, it would be better to understand your analysis so that you have a guide of what you are doing instead of just gambling everything away. If you know what you are doing, we will be able to do important things because, aside from trading, we need to understand how to manage the risk of trading because if you don't, you will lose a lot of money. But the problem people have is that they want to make quick money and it does not work that way. Trading is more complicated and the earlier the better we understand that because trading is a responsibility and we need to take it seriously, to aviod losing so much money.

But when you invest and hold for about 4 to 10 years time, there is no way you wouldn't have something tangible, or something you can build future with. Perhaps, this sound sweet but that's the undiluted truth people failed to acknowledge. Hence, if you must benefit from bitcoin then investing is just the smooth way of achieving it. Short term trading may look good and attractive but it can liquidate your entire finance in a tinkle of an eyes.

I agree with the advice to hold for a long time instead of short-term trading. However, it is not realistic to say that you will get a guaranteed result if you hold for four to ten years. If you want, you can present four years as a market cycle. But the final result will depend on when you bought, how much you saved and whether you have to sell when necessary.

If someone buys Bitcoin with the money they need, they may be forced to sell in an emergency situation even if they have a long-term plan. Therefore, choosing the right money and building an emergency fund may be more important than calculating profits by time.
