#标普500 vs #Bitcoin :Is day trading more profitable? Or holding steady and enjoying the ride?
The truth is actually ridiculously simple——
Since 1993, all returns of the S&P 500 have occurred after market hours, not during.
These 32 years of intraday trading almost yield nothing because noise, high frequency, and hedging have eaten up all your potential gains.
The real growth comes from: macroeconomic factors, earnings reports, buybacks, and portfolio adjustments after market close.
In other words:
The more you trade, the more you miss out on the real gains.
The more you hold steady, the closer you get to the “source” of returns.
The data is so straightforward it’s almost speechless👇
Buying and selling intraday (open to close):
👉 Only earns 24.6%
Buying after hours and selling before open (close to open):
👉 Gains 1,152%
Holding long-term without moving:
👉 Gains 1,460%
And then look at Bitcoin:
The results are even more exaggerated——
Holding steady = 31 million times return
Frequent trading = 5.63 million times
Yes, both are highly profitable.
But the gap is brutally clear.
Every day someone teaches you “buy high, sell low,”
But no one really can do it;
And holding is the only strategy everyone can succeed with.
The S&P 500 is like that, so is BTC.
The only difference is——
You don’t believe it.
