The distinction between ‘active’ trading and ‘passive’ trading comes down to your objective.
Active traders buy and sell crypto regularly. They are self-directed, in that they rely on their own analysis of crypto projects when deciding what to buy and sell. The objective is to increase returns by reacting swiftly to the peaks and dips in crypto prices.
Passive traders seek to minimize their level of trading activity. While still self-directed, passive traders research and select a few crypto projects they would like buy and hold for the long term. The objective here is to have high conviction about a few crypto projects and then ignore the inevitable price volatility that will come. Some passive traders will want to take a large position in a crypto project they believe in. Others will use take an approach called dollar-cost averaging, where smaller amounts are added on a regular basis over time, so as to reduce volatility.
