Why people always advice newbie against inpending dangers associated with trading, is the Risk involved. In my own understanding I see that those who are educating you on what to do have seen or have come into conclusion to that beyond reasonable doubt that trading is a quick way of loosing your fund. what the old investors have seen in trading, they take it as a priority to teach you about the inpending dangers ahead. But never mind you will not understand. There is a parable that says " what an elder sees while sitting even if a child climbs the higher tree he can never see" meaning that no matter how they explain to you you will not understand until you encounter the dangers before you learn.

But if you are smart you learn from the mistake of another person rather than fall thesame victim before you learn. What ever dey tell you is for your own good. But if you choose trading it's fine but don't forget that holding for long is the best option.
