I'll say my first year of trading had me outperform the S&P500, but investing in Dividends and ETFs has become less emotionally taxing.

I'm more like a trader to tell ya the answer.
To let you know i do research particularly on news and dont really care about technical analysis tho, if the news reports that a specific company performance is deteriorating i will go short and take the profit and vise versa

Trading is great if you have that skillset. Investing is a lot safer IMHO. You can get liquidated trading, especially if you trade on margin.

At the end of the day, if you want to win in the market, you will be a trader. Riding your positions up and down over the years is like a ride at Six Flags, it's senseless. When you reach 60 years old and leaning on the periodic sale of your positions held in your Roth IRA to fund your living expenses, your days of buy and hope are over!
