I have observe something in this forum, a lot of people that are not trading or have traded before and had great losses which made them run away from trading are still saying trading is a good means of making profit from bitcoin when they know that the chance of making profit from trading is very slim, because only few people can devote their time and resources to learn trading and be successful at it. They will always refer to their friend that was successful from trading but the fact is that most of them don't have anybody that they know that made it through trading, the people that they refer you to are those influencers they see on social media which we know that majority of them didn't get the wealth that they are flaunting around in social media from the source they claim.
It very easy to understand that trading is a good to make profit because it’s something that can be done in matter of days weeks or months you don’t have to wait for so long to make profit just like investment but the more likely it is to make profits the more risky it is to lose. Trading is not something one should venture into easily because of the risk and uncertainty even with lots of knowledge about it, most people know it’s a a good means to make money but they don’t have the mindset to take the risk so I don’t think it’s a bad thing. The risk is high so one needs to be careful with trading because even experts lose money when trading.
Why do they direct newbies to the wrong path when they know it is a very risky way of increasing your bitcoin portfolio.
I have not come across people directing newbies to trading, I always see post warning people not to trade because of the high risk involved and newbies particularly are always advised to avoid trading.
