The investment period varies, such as you can invest short-term or long-term. If you invest for a long time, you will get comparatively higher dividends than short-term investments. So we can invest in Bitcoin for a long time by adopting the (DCA) method which gives us the possibility of getting high dividends in the future.
People usually invest considering their personal needs, achieving some goals, interests. However, keeping some things in mind, just as long-term investments can yield higher dividends, the possibility of losses is also reduced to a large extent compared to short-term investments. For this, you need to understand which holding period is suitable for you and invest.
Investment means long term. If you call short term investment as investment here then you would be slightly wrong. We never look at short term investment as an investment, we consider it as trading. You sound a bit like a trader here.
It would be wrong to say that the purpose of investment is not to earn profit. We never want to do anything without profit. But as you said long term investment yield is higher than short term investment/trading. The main objective of us long term investors to hold investments is to accumulate more amount as well as take some profit. But you are more guaranteed of profit in long term investment. If you are planning to be a long term investor then focus on consistent buying rather than focusing on short term investment/trading and long term investment profits and definitely plan and commit to be long term.
And everything would really be that entirely be depending or basing up into someones preference when it comes into this aspect.We do really know that not all would really be pursuing or trying out to achieve that long term holds and seeing their profits or reaping out for how many years but rather they would really be preferring on something that they could be able to get on just few days or even weeks in maximum. Just like on what you had elaborated that things could really be considered neither long term and short term approach but we do know that short term approach does really needed up that skill for you to have.
There are people who do have that much more risks tolerance or simply being takers and thats why they will really be coming up with this option and wont really be trying out to hold for long term because they are really just that simple being impatient. Some do divide out their portfolio basing up into their risks management on which they do have that for short term allocation and there are also for long term.
There would really be those who do both things and there are ones who do really focuses out on one side. Just like been said that everything will be that matters on your preference and
your interest because you wouldnt be choosing it out if you werent that sure about it.
