In most cases one common disadvantage of short term investments is that anything can go wrong at anytime. You could end up loosing all your investments especially if you are investing in something which the price value is not stable, like crypto currency.
Well, you are right but another thing is that an investment can go wrong at anytime and that is why we need to be very careful and also make research before investing.

The thing is that any investment is likely to come with losses whether short-term investments or not so yeah it might not always lead to losses but you can still lose .

I think this is why risk management is very important when it comes to making money and you may need to invest wisely. Understanding the Future prospects is one of the keys to making great investments.

There are times when no one needs to tell us how to manage risk or how to protect our money because there are little things that we can do and it is going to be helpful for us instead of wasting our money

Some people believe short term investment is risk free as you take your profits and then move on. However, for other people short term investment does not yield a lot of profits especially when the assets had higher chances of going up.
It is true! Majority of the short-term investment does not yield profit compared to the long-term investment projection.

And it is good for us to notice that a short-term Investments that is promising us a lot of money is either going to scam us or something else because it is very weird for you to see a real investment program that will promise you so much money as your return

It is good to go for short-term investments that would bring sure profit than one that does not yield profit compared to the long-term investment which takes time to yield profit

I think that many people invest in short-term markets and such kind of markets could crash or rise at any time. This is a drawback of investing in such kind of markets, I reckon.

I think those are the kind of people who always panic whenever they are investing in something and it is very normal because you need to protect your money at all cost
That's how it should be

Short term investments don't have high yields and returns when compared to long term investments. Take for instance gold as an investment appreciates the longer it is owned while reselling it short term would only bring limited profits.

One of the main disadvantages of short term investments is that most of them are high risk. Long time investments on the other hand are always low risk. If you choose to do short term investment, you are required to really look into the legitimacy of the method of investment.

People who invest in gold are long-term investors because you cannot expect yourself to make profit immediately you invest in gold and that is why they wait for a while before they sell it

I think that panicking is a really natural reaction. They usually panic because they are suffering from losses. The fact of the matter remains that this might be one of the main reasons why people avoid investing money.

This is a normal thing and I understand you because I don't think it is possible for you not to panic when you are losing money. A human being will surely panic in this kind of situation

It all depends on whether the investment is losing money for short-term issues and news not related to its fundamentals, or if it is losing money because its fundamentals have failed, in the latter case you have to fear and probably undo positions.

It truly depends on their investment but we should just make sure that we try so hard to research also observe the kind of platform that we have chosen to invest in so that we will not lose money

With a long term investment, one can possibly rebound after a significant loss happens to the investment. With an investment that is short term, you won't have a chance to recover as a significant change that results in a loss is final

You have actually written the truth so it is left for each and everyone to choose what kind of investment that they want to do. Well, I have always preferred the long term investment. It is better
