Trading is the process of buying and selling financial assets such as stocks, currencies, commodities, or cryptocurrencies with the aim of making profits. Trading occurs in financial markets through electronic platforms and relies on price analysis and forecasts. Trading is divided into two main types:
Long-term trading (investment): In this, a person holds the asset for a long period.
Short-term trading (speculative): In this, buying and selling occur over short periods to achieve quick profits.
Success in trading requires knowledge, analysis, risk management, and not relying solely on luck.
