Investing vs Day Trading – Which is Best?
Discover the pros and cons of both approaches and find out which aligns with your financial goals.
Here's the problem
You want to grow your money, but you’re stuck between two very different options: Should you take a steady, long-term approach with investing? Or should you dive into the fast-paced world of day trading? Both sound appealing, but how do you know which path is right for you?
Choosing the wrong strategy could cost you more than just money—it could leave you frustrated, burnt out, or without a clear financial future. Maybe you’ve heard stories of people making quick profits with day trading, but at the same time, you know investing is a proven way to build wealth over time. The mixed messages are confusing, and making the wrong move could mean risking your savings or missing out on better opportunities.
In this free webinar, Investing vs Day Trading – Which is Best?, we’ll break down the key differences and help you decide which strategy fits your goals.
Here’s what you’ll learn
-
What kind of returns to expect: From both investing and day trading, with real-world examples of how a long-term investor can grow their wealth steadily over 10, 20, or 30 years, while a day trader may experience short-term wins but with higher risks.
-
Time commitment and lifestyle: We’ll show you how investing may require minimal time commitment, allowing you to build wealth passively, while day trading can demand hours of active screen time, constant market monitoring, and split-second decision-making.
-
Risk levels and emotional management: You’ll learn how investing focuses on long-term growth, often with lower stress, whereas day trading can be more volatile and emotionally draining due to market fluctuations.
-
Tools and platforms: Get an inside look at the investment accounts and platforms most suitable for both strategies. From simple brokerage accounts for long-term investors to specialized platforms that offer fast execution for day traders.
My Journey from Learner to Leader
I’m Vladimir Zabnin, an active investor since 2010. My journey started in Tallinn, Estonia, and led me to graduate with a BSc in Financial Economics from the University of Dundee in 2016. I quickly advanced in my career, initially joining Alliance Trust Savings as an investment analyst, where I rose to a team leader position in just a year. Later, I moved to Baillie Gifford as a portfolio analytics specialist, where I refined my investment strategies to align with the firm’s policies and hone my investor expertise.
My journey is a testament to the power of effective investing, and I’ve developed strategies that are effective for full-time workers and students eager to expand their investment portfolios.
Beginners course is great to get into investing!
I have always found the stock market daunting which prevented me from investing. Vladimirs course for beginners has helped me understand the market from the basics right up to technical analysis. I now feel confident to invest myself and have already bought my first stock!
Vladimir has taught me strategies for both growth and dividend stocks that is not too time intensive to research and implement. This was critical for me and I definitely wasn't looking to become a day trader.
If you are looking to get in to investing or advance your knowledge, I would highly recommend the Stock Doctor!

Really knows his stuff
I had an informal chat with Vladimir who introduced me to the basic fundamentals of investing. I learned more from this guy in one hour than I've managed to glean from various 'advisers' over the years! Vladimir is astonishingly well-informed and is so passionate about his subject. He takes time to unravel the complexities and easily cuts through the jargon. An excellent, informative experience.

Perfect introduction to investing
Had a pleasure to be taught by Vladimir. We had 3 intense days full of new knowledge and practice. At the beginning of the course I was totally green and had almost no understanding about stocks and investing. The course is designed well and even for a total rookie, it makes sense and helps you to navigate in the world of investing. After you have completed the course you belong to a friendly community of aspiring investors, where you can share and discuss all the questions what will come to your mind. I also found very helpful the weekly zoom calls where Vladimir answers the questions and gives advice.
Good investment.
