Bitcoin trading is the exchange of fiat currency or other cryptocurrencies for bitcoin, on an exchange, with a short-term vision and then returning to fiat currency by exploiting the high volatility to gain in fiat currency<\/em>.<\/p>\nWe must understand that the difference between investing and trading refers specifically to the long or short term view. In fact, investing means buying bitcoin today and then reselling it in 3 4 or more years, regardless of its movements. Trading bitcoin, on the other hand, means taking advantage of its movements to make money.<\/p>\n
The two views are both correct and are the result of two different points of view. Investors generally believe in the underlying technology and ideology of Bitcoin, seeing in it a possible bright future for the asset. Traders, on the other hand, may not be interested in technology but are interested in the short-term economic potential of the instrument, so ups and downs are welcome when positioning in a trend.<\/p>\n
The two visions can be experienced simultaneously. Nobody forbids you to put some bitcoins away on a wallet for the long term and at the same time trade others for the short time.<\/p>\n
A popular slang term in the bitcoin world is hodl, which refers to someone who has long-term invested in bitcoin. The term comes from a mistake that has become popular on the bitcoin talk forum.<\/p>\n
At every big down fall, don’t panic and hodl!<\/strong><\/p>\nTraders not interested in bitcoin technology consider it an interesting asset for their work as the market is open 24 hours a day all year round. The volatility of the currency and its riskiness are the perfect fuel for day traders and swing traders.<\/p>\n
One last observation. Don’t turn a short-term trade into a long-term investment just because the market has gone in the opposite direction to what you thought and your loss percentage became important because you didn’t use the stop loss.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
