Every good investor says something like this:

You can try trading, but the real money is in waiting
You are absolutely right, or he is absolutely right rather, because I just thought about this and realized that, both a trader and an investor waits, and without that waiting, money can not be made...
For example, a trader buys bitcoin with the intention of selling it for profit in any minute, he or she will have to wait for the price to go up from where he or she bought, the keyword there is
"wait", he or she will either have to wait or sell at a loss.
Same goes for the investors as well, the investing buying with the intention of selling for profit after some years, will also have to wait, when the time he wants to sell comes, and the price of Bitcoin hasnt increased, he or she will still need to wait or end up selling at a loss too..
So,
Waiting is the most important part of both trading and investing.
