Long term holding is less stressful then day trading, but holding cant be interesting as day trading. I have fun, I never risk more then I can lose, so it always interesting, even if I lose some money.
Scammers are everywhere, that's why you should trade only with top coins, the ones with high volume. If you trade with any shit coin you come across, its very possible for you to lose your money on pump and dump scheme! So be careful where you trade, with which coin you trade and you will not have problems with scammers.
