Yea, short-term trading comes with a higher emotional stress, and even with your knowledge about it, you will still lose. That is just a fact, and I also believe that the best way to get a lot of profit in bitcoin is through long-term investment, which will help you to accumulate a lot of bitcoin to hold, and that is the best recommended for those that have no time to learn about bitcoin trading.
Trading deals with a higher knowledge and research for several months, and even if you become an expert in trading, you most likely lose, which takes much of your time and will not allow you to have time to do other things. So as someone new in bitcoin and you are mostly occupied, the best space for you is long-term investment, not trading, but if you have the knowledge and you feel you can do the trading, then put it in mind that you are likely to lose sometimes.
For example, if someone is looking for profit, they will trade but they have a risk of loss if they have the wrong strategy.
While holders are also looking for profit but they do not lose because they continue to buy bitcoin until the time they want.
So both are very different and only holders will succeed later. Just look at how many are crying because they sold early, but holders are not like that, their portfolio profits continue to increase. Yes, it is better to be a long-term investor than to be a trader with hopes that have not fully run as desired.
