Day Trading vs. Long Term Investing | Trading 212

Day Trading vs. Long Term Investing? Checking out Trading 212!

In today’s video I wanted to share the different approaches to putting money into financial markets.

You can do this by day trading different financial markets like the foreign exchange market (forex), stock market, commodities. This is what I would consider someone who is active in the financial markets.

Or you can take the long term buy and hold approach as an investor like Warren Buffet. This is what I would consider as the more passive investor, who purchases stocks in a bunch of great companies over time and benefits from the compounded growth on an investment portfolio.

Now traders and investors are different, and they can predominantly separated by 5 key elements; mindset, risk, objectives, skillset and account types.

During this video I discuss these 5 elements in a little more detail, and show you the difference between the Trading212 ISA account versus the Trading212 CFD account, because each of these accounts have their individual purposes depending on whether you’re an investor or a trader.

Cool that you made a video for people finally understand that it's 2 completely different worlds, and daytrading should be left for professionals, unless you have an extremely good risk management

invest for sure but unfortunately can't signup for a real account on trading212 cos in Botswana they print P.O. Box on bank statements and utility so I can't open an account and there's is no country that will allow us to use their platforms and it sucks when ur in ur early 20's and can't invest in dig markets cos of an underdeveloped country

Cheers Mitch. Do you use a trading212 ISA and a general account in Vanguard? Only ask as I’m doing it the other way round.

Does anyone day trade on trading 212?? How is it like compared to a typical broker with high leverage?? I have noticed that Trading 212 has tighter spreads for FX in comparison to other brokers. Please help if you know anything!

Long term, buy and hold for me. Day trading is a disaster waiting to happen in my opinion.
