Short term investing is like trading, but there is risk involved in investing for a short period of time. However, having funds is the most important thing when it comes to investing. If you don't have funds, you can't invest. If you have enough funds, you can invest some amount from there. When you invest you may face loss due to volatility in the market but if you have funds at that time then you can reinvest and get profit from it. So I also think it is very important to have an emergency fund to sustain the investment and an investor has a high expectation of profit in it. But long term investment is best as compared to short term placement and profit is easy here.
I don’t think I get what you’re trying to point out with short term investment and the risk involve also owning enough money before anyone can invest using the short term strategy. Anyone can attach profit with trading but it’s never advisable an investor go into bitcoin with short term strategy which I think is not right, if anyone should brag about their short term holdings you’ll definitely know an investor holding for long run will always make better profit. Secondly timing the volatility market when trying to accumulate bitcoin is wrong basically anyone can buy at any price interval and hold for long knowing bitcoin is a valuable asset, What you need to know about bitcoin short investment choice is you can’t get the profit you want within short period rather bitcoin market is volatile which brings benefits after investing for years.. Concerning emergency funds, emergency funds is like a back up funds and it’s a must when investing for long term emergency funds is needed.
You are right, indeed anyone can make a profit from trading as long as they have good skills and knowledge about trading and choosing to invest Bitcoin in the short term is highly discouraged because the price of Bitcoin is very volatile so this will be very unlikely to be able to generate profits in the short term, but it would be great if we continue to accumulate Bitcoin assets and hold them for a long time to be able to make a profit from holding these assets and we also have to keep planning before deciding to start in order to be able to run the investment properly, as you said it is very right we have to think about emergency funds so as not to interfere with the assets that we have invested when we suddenly need the funds.
