I'm not new to bitcoin but I got the idea about this forum a few days ago. Actually I know about bitcoin quite a bit since long time. I have experience in buying and selling bitcoin and buying and selling Altcoins and trading. Although my reserve is being invested in bitcoin quite a bit, I keep a small amount of my income for investment and investment is going on.
I don't think it is a wise idea to be investing in Bitcoin and, at the same time, trading. With this method, someone can easily lose their Bitcoin investment. Once a person loses all the funds deposited in the trading account, it's very possible that they will touch their Bitcoin investment just to trade and try to recover the money they lost. Gradually, this could lead to completely emptying their Bitcoin investment.trading is never the wayit is very risky, and it's an easy way for people to lose money. So, I would say it's a bad idea to be an investor a trader at the same time. You’re likely to lose everything easily.
I don't want to enter anyone's personal life and I don't want to talk about their personal freedom. Being a trader is a personal freedom for a person and being an investor is also a personal freedom. We shouldn't comment on this. Bitcoin investment and trading are two different things. Being a trader does not mean that a person cannot be successful in long-term investment. Leave it to him and let him think for himself how to be successful.

But I must say that entering a person's trade is not a good move, trading is very risky and the possibility of losing money is very high. If your money is valuable, then think twice before entering a trade and make a decision. Spending money on investment can be a much more profitable decision in the long run than losing money on trading.
I believe that no investors here that is impersonating to any one ways of life when it comes to Bitcoin investments because everyone has the right to do what him/her think will be beneficial to them and so many investors here is in this forum to share ideas were necessary on the best options to choose when it comes to Bitcoin investments, because many investors prefer trading in shorter run because they couldn't have  the patient to for a long term run but always in desperation to make quick money, which with the ideas that so many has contributed in this thread that if you eventually put your mindset on monitoring  of Bitcoin price in the market that means you are gambling and you will surely lose so much profit in the process of gambling, which could have gotten more profits and save you from risking your money assuming you undergose the long term investment using DCA strategy which allows you to buy small small and accumulate in a long term without being afraid of losing.
I totally agree that everyone’s situation and strategy is different and that’s okay. Some are in for quick flips, others for the long haul. But the truth is, trying to time the market too much usually turns into emotional trading, and that’s where people get burned. DCA might not be flashy, but it’s solid if you believe in Bitcoin long term. Appreciate the fact to stay focused and not let the hype or fear take over.
