In trading speculation there are multiple times to make money, lets break down starting in descending order with first making the most

1/8
2/8 Insider information - being close to information either on macro level in politics or close to the management of the company guarantees you will know which direction stocks go

3/8 High frequency trading - entry threshold is low as long as you come up with your algo strategy. These companies tend to be super secretive. Exchanges don't really like this type as it does extremely a lot of volume. In US to get edge you as HFT have to pay extra to get edge

4/8 like replace fiber cable with microwave cable to exchange's server, in Europe the access is fairer as everybody needs to have equal playground

5/8 Arbitrage - crypto-to-crypto or crypto-to-fiat. You heard Kimchi premium where on South Korean exchanges bitcoin was at least 5% more than on other exchanges. You have to find trade route and banking partners or if it's crypto to crypto enough liquidity across different pairs

6/8 crypto-to-fiat where crypto has different price either due to geographical location or payment method. @paxful has 300 ways to buy and sell crypto and has many arbitrageurs who sell crypto for people in need while earning profit from it

7/8 Fundamentals - analyzing company records, strategy, team. It is Warren Buffet style or in a more extreme saying - corporate raiding. Success is not always 100% in here.

8/8 Penny stocks - It's a wildcard. ICO/DeFi/Web3 could be that - you buy into promises of a whitepaper, perhaps got an early allocation of tokens. Now you just wait, bet on the team and hope for possible many x-es returns

So how do you clean up the (2)(3) mess? You make it sound like (2) happens too often. And what is the best advice for the ordinary person? "The man on the street?" Buy into crypto and just wait?
