<<Aiii>> The different mindsets of traders and investors

The terms 'trader' and 'investor' are often used interchangeably
because both participate in stock market transactions. In commodity
markets, you will hardly ever hear the term 'investor'. Why so?
Because the mindsets of traders and investors are quite different.

A trader has a 'short-term' mentality. Time span for a typical trade
can be a few minutes, or hours or at most a few days. An investor has
a 'long-term' mentality. Time span for an investment can stretch from
a few months to a few years.

Traders don't worry whether the price of a stock (or commodity) is
going up or down. If a profitable trade is possible – whether on the
long side (up) or short side (down) – the trader will jump in.
Investors usually enter long-only positions. They buy at a lower
price, and expect to sell at a higher price.
