It is normal for people to panic but it is not good for them to panic too much because it does not make sense for someone who feels like he wants to take risk to panic. Taking risk is quite hard so you should be prepared for it
Well, in my case, I would at least try to never panic at all. This is because i would never invest something that I cannot afford to lose. This is one of the most important things an investor must realise.
Disadvantages of short-term investing:
1. Higher Taxes: Short-term gains are often taxed at higher rates.
2. Increased Volatility: Short-term investments are subject to market fluctuations.
3. Trading Costs: Frequent trading can lead to higher transaction fees.
4. Limited Compounding: Short-term gains may not benefit from the power of compounding.
5. Emotional Stress: Frequent trading can be emotionally taxing and lead to impulsive decisions.
6. Risk of Loss: Short-term investments may not allow time to recover from losses.

The disadvantages of short term investments is that its very hard to get good amount of profit from your investments, some investment plans need some time in order to generate profits, so if we invest only for short period of times then we may lose profit and also in some case we may lose our money.
Every individual could have their own view but in my point of view, short term investment do have more advantages as compare to long term. The point is as like I invest my $100 in BCH at 245 just after one day I saw that it touches 250 then I sell and get profit. On the other hand I purchase same at same rate at 245 hold it for one year when I thought to sell it, its price came again from 300 to 244. So what advantage remain here for holding it.
Short-term investing typically involves more frequent buying and selling of assets, which can lead to higher transaction costs such as brokerage fees and taxes. It's also often more volatile and unpredictable than long-term investing.
