It's risky to start trading without plan.

It's not important if you choose day trading or long term trading it's important to have a plan. And one more suggestion, you can trade daily and hold some coin you dont need to choose one that "strategies".

Short term holding is more risky than long term holding,its my own opinion.For small capital investment short term is the right choice.But for big capital long term is less risky than short term.

[sportlopez9000 232]

Short term is more risky always than long term. I don't know why you would just trade short term because it can go in any direction. But long term we know bitcoin has gone up every year so if you go in now it will be higher next year if things stay the same. Short term you can be more likely to lose your trade so I don't think it is for you unless you are a gambler. Gambler do all short term trades and maybe you get lucky, maybe you lose though too and then regret short term. Save yourself money and do long term trades and sleep easy at night.

I think that depending on the way of investing to make money is still an investment, what is the risk?
Only in the long term, it will suck your capital for a long time and you need to make a big profit
also prevent you from surfing, you should take more interest

[febriyana 934]

I think for now i doing both, invest in long term and short term. For long term i prefer invest in top coin like Litecoin, Bitcoin, and Ark. But currently Ark isn't good about the price because going down everyday. Maybe will sell it, but i need research that coin maybe can be profitable in the future.

For short term i always trading altcoin where coin i think have cheapest price this time and then sell it on higher price.

yes, and people do hold wrong coins, because those wrong coins are the ones with fake promises to go to the moon.

It is my opinion that short term is risky as compared to long term trading because it has very small time if we invest in short term i suggest you invest in long term for profit

I think short term is much more risky then long term trading In short term, it becomes difficult to decide when the trade will make because  the market is going down very fast. There is a very high chance of loss I prefer long term trading 

[Fadzinator 285]

Both are risky, but if you go long with good quality coins then you are more safer for long side. 

To be fair each of them has advantage and disadvantage. Its better to be updated and see what are the updates of your investment.

[Pratzz 23]

Short term. Is more risky because it can give you lots but it can take from. You. In a second. In long term you have hopes that you can get after some months. 

[vivek jain 308]

ofcourse short term Trading.no one knows that you are going to hit the short term target or not.short term Trading requires many things of analysis.whereas long term mainly works on fundamental analysis.and you just have to hodl.

For me long term and shorterm are same risky,  and this is depends on ypu on how you will manage your capital to not lose.

if you hold on coins like Bitcoin and make sure you bought at a low price, long term  is not that very risk, short term traders tend to sell at low if order is taking too long, they are not patient.

Those are for those that doesn't want to make good research before they jump to invest into the coins

I like doing research here on cryptotalk and get ideas from different people especially people who already are investing on that coin.

[Ogundare oluwaseun 51]

It depends on individual because both has it cons and pros some.there was a time I traded forex I used short time frame within short period i made some profit but when the next day came I trade the profit I made trading short was lost within the short period the way I made it if it were to be long term I might still be having something my money won't be eroded away like that

[awaiskhan 175]

Every type of trading got its own advantages and drawbacks but the fact is that how do u do trading, sometime in short term trading the possibility of loss is more than the long term and its depend upon many things.

[Whydoyoucare 1094]

I think its much more riskier on the short term because you dont have the guarantee that the price will pump, long term is also a risk when you buy a coin at the right time and unexpected happen like the coin drop all your expectation will be gone.

[jmigdlc99 360]

In my opinion short term trading is more risky than long term. Why? Because when you do short term it is as if you are expecting to get rich quick, therefore you invest more recklessly and dangerously. Compared to if you do long term investing it is much safer because you have to do research and look at your investment's fundamentals.

[khan22 3478]

Both are good short term trading and also long term trading because i am a short and long term both but i almost trade in long term in short term trading we can stuck in the pair but in long term trading we can get good profit in a week or in a month. Trading is the best way to make money in the crypto market which is good for us.

Both of them can be risky. It depends on the amount of crypto you buy and the time of purchase. But in general I think short term trading is more risky because you have limited amount of time to react to the changes in the market and you have to deal with tight price movements. But in long term trading, you have more time to read the news and analyze the market and can prepare yourself in advance for what you predict will happen next. If you are a beginner, you should start with mid-term trading by choosing low-risk coins like BTC and ETH and buy them at bear market and sell them at bull run. This is a safe trading method for beginners and can bring you enough profit too. Start short term trading only when you have enough investment and skill.

[akmal1984 103]

I think short trading is riskier than it is for the long term. Even though we can cut loss, the price of crypto which is very volatile obviously makes the risk increase as our trading time is shorter.

[saddamali 194]

Now this bearing market longterm is very risky so you can doing shorterm trade it is very profitable.You can doing short trade only eth-btc trading pair ,it is very profitable.

[Ms.o 3322]

Long term are the easier and safer, while short term is risky yet more profitable than long term.Both are ok,it depends on you if your patient enough,if you find your getting profit in short term why not sell,

but if you got rekt then that was the time you need to hold for long term until you get good profits.

Long term trading and short term trading both are good but i think long term trading is so much profitable than the short term trading because using low lot is good and make good profit in trading is best for us and i am also like the long term trading.

no i think the possibility of losing is more in long term trading because in short term you could sell when you are in 5% losses but in long term it will be too late to sell.

[Luciferludz 1442]

I think short time trading is more risk because sometimes is deliver to panic buy or sell, but long term trade you don't care if coin is drop or pump you don't sell it till the expected price
