We cannot say that trading Bitcoin is not an option that it's a trap, I think that ideology is misleading, what we can say is that trading Bitcoin on the short term is not for everybody because it is volatile therefore risky. There are professional traders that are making profit on the short term, trading is something that requires learning the skills to be profitable and minimize loses. It should be noted that if you don't diligently learn the technicalities and fundamental analysis of trading before engaging in it you're just gambling your funds which is very risky.

On the other hand investing in Bitcoin for the long term will make you to be profitable because it has the potentials to always reach ATH. Long term Bitcoin holders are not bothered about short term dump and pump, it doesn't stop them from buying and continue buying because if it dip it will recover and rally. On the long term you will get ROI on your capital that is why it is safer than trading.

nah nah my friend, you're getting it wrong and it is as if you're of side of trading, so your advise is for people to start trading right, dude trading bitcoin is trap man and it is never an option unless it is what you've chosen and if anything should happen you settle with the consequences alone, was bitcoin investment created for a long-term I ask buddy? Why will you even thought of such, this isnt healthy for newbies and you know that, in as much as we have heard about professional traders, we also know that they lose too so what's special about that, so you prefer learning skil to investing gradually with what you can afford consistently, I can't believe thats coming from a bitcoiner in this era that many people want rewrite their wrongs in bitcoin investment, hey man trading is gambling whichever you.man to twist it, there is no evidence put away that fact.

Just imagine after making it look as if we should accept trading, you started showing us the other side by outlining the needs for people to invest in bitcoin for a long term, I want to ask you, which side are you please, because you are confusing people although not me because am already a bitcoiner and I will like to know if you're really for us.

Is it a contest that we’re choosing sides or a competition of investments… Kelward is just saying we can’t totally condemn trading just because we’re not doing it or we feel it’s a bad investment. The thing is Trading is highly risky and it’s not advised for newbies to get into, it’s complicated not as simple as investing.
This thread is for talking about buying bitcoin, growing and maintaining your investment, I guess that’s why many here don’t support the idea of trading.
I don’t know if some of the people who post here are aware of this, that there are people who make gains from trading, no matter how bad it might seem to you.
Even if we promote investment by Dollar Cost Average, trading and gambling will always be a means for people.
