I am more interested in trend because this is the only way to make quick profits from the market.
Trend profits making is faster than the usual way to invest in cryptocurrency and earn more. Long time investment is mostly for project that are strong and have a long term goal in the market. We can always make money from any for the two ways but how much you could make will be very different. Trend has huge profits to be made compared to long term.
Aside being profitable, you should also consider the risk associated with trends. High volatility is what's makes trend coin profitable than long term project within a period of time. Besides after the trend, some of those coin might never surface again and that's the end of their existing, so for newbie investors trends shouldn't be their goal for investment but on long term project to learn how the market operates before chasing after trends, so in as much as you can trend very well with trends, it because of the amount of know you have, and that the problem, you have to watch the market for price movement to know how the price moves.
