Is this your understanding about trading and investor?, if so that means you also don't understand the clarification you were trying to make because you did not explain it the way it should be and I would have agreed to it if I did not understand what those things means but since I can differentiate the both, your definition about the trader and investor needs to be adjusted or amended because an investor is not a short term holder or even someone who acquired a lot of other cryptocurrency aside from Bitcoin because the moment you came up with a short term investment you already put yourself on the trading side, investor has only a unique word and that's long term.
if you have your personal suggestion you can educate us more and forgets about criticism, most of you doesn't know the similarity between trading and investment, someone who trade is like someone sells constantly to make a little profit, why someone who is investor is looking at target because its target the person need most, that is why you that risk takers always make more money why the poor is not ready to risk, investors have target of what they will profit for their investment.
Constructive criticism brings out the best in everyone, at least @Roseline493 statement triggered you to make some expansion about the two terms to the best of your knowledge, @Onyeze I think there are some risk that are not worth taking, am not against any trader since it is what they have chosen to do which is also there personal.decison bit what I dont find funny is seeing a trader as a good risk taker that's so absurd to me, so you're trying to tell us that an unrealistic and uncalculative risk that has more uncertainty surrounding it should be encouraged thats laughably Buddy, am very happy that you mentioned investors as individual who has a set goal and strive to accomplish their misson in a long-term.
When you say risk takers makes more money you may be right but it all depends on the particular risk involved, as a risk taker you must not embark on some risk that has the ability of rendering you financially incapacitated, so is not about the poor or the rich rather it's about your decision to make the right choice when opportunity calls not about taking risk when you already know that it's not part of the concept of the said investment.
Its important to listen on the criticism of other people since not every time we are correct with our statement posted here. Even if we are long time dealing with Bitcoin for sure there are other information has been missed out that's why its good that there are people criticize us to that we can correct those wrong assumptions we made. This is how great this thread since there are people willing to correct us if we post a wrong information here since this adds up our knowledge then we became better investor.
I guess taking risk is situation and always choose the best approach since dealing with things you don't know the result will provably make you fall down and all efforts will be wasted. Also aside from thinking about we can deal with the risk, we also need to think smart if what we are doing gives us high probabilities to gain good results. To many good information to read here I guess people need to do back read if they are confused about what's going on here. Especially for those topics they want to tackle.
