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.
You have some kind of understanding in the difference between a trader and an investor, there is no doubt about that but I will simply want to add a little to what you already said because when it comes to bitcoin, there is a clear distinction between a trader and an investor. A trader, like you said, buys and sell within a short time whereas as investor holds for a long time. The key point is that one is constantly exposing his money to risk because when the trade is placed, a stop loss is set as well as a take profit. When the trade hits the stop loss, the trader is losing money, unfortunately, this happens more than the take profits which makes trading a very risky thing to do. On the other hand, the investor have his money stored and kept somewhere and with time the money will keep growing, he is not taking any risk neither is he wasting time with complex analysis. The beauty of investing is just enormous and can never be compared to trading that constantly raises the blood pressure of the trader.
I completely agreed with you on this and I will also add that one common thing (risk)that is generally associated with a trader is that they end up making purchases with an amount that they can not be comfortable with and sometimes some can even go to the extend of borrowing money to make purchases because they are carried away with making short term profits that is very uncertain and unrealistic, they panic when an asset is dipping and most times sell at lost and nobody gets to hear about it but when they make a profit the news will be all over the place while an investors with a long term investment plan will quietly purchase his asset with an amount they be comfortable with while the asset keep growing over time.
