Let us explain the <\/span>differences <\/i><\/b>between <\/span>traders <\/i><\/b>and <\/span>investors<\/i><\/b>, at first.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stock traders are individuals<\/i><\/b> (or entities) engaged in the trading of equity securities, or the transfer of other financial assets. <\/span><\/p>\n

They work either for themselves or on behalf of someone else. <\/span><\/p>\n

They may operate as agents, hedgers<\/a>, arbitrageurs, speculators, or investors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Stock investors are individuals<\/i><\/b> (or entities) who use their own money to buy equity securities. The goal of the stock investor is to gain returns, which come in the form of income, interest, or appreciation in value also known as capital gains.<\/span><\/p>\n
