Emotional control is more evident in trading than investing, as investing can be done in a more relaxed manner without excessive emotion. However, in trading, emotions can quickly escalate if not properly controlled, as most traders are driven by the desire to achieve short-term profits. Long-term investments, on the other hand, are unlikely to trigger excessive emotions, except for the urge to aggressively buy assets with proven performance, such as Bitcoin.
This is very relatable as an investor. Being a trader, you have a lot of emotions to deal with because, at any point, the market could change and pending what your trading capital might be, you might want to be on the chart always with every move having to play on your emotions.
Investing is not like that, it has some certainties to it given that, the factors that could affect it can easily be defined and it’s not easily affected by news like we see in trading.
