The behavior of buying when the price is predicted to rise and waiting until the right price before selling, or selling when the price is predicted to fall and waiting until the right price and then buying is called speculation

A speculator is someone who does the things mentioned above! ! ~

Speculation is more difficult than investing, and speculation is not a derogatory word~ It is a neutral word~ It is mostly used in futures trading~

But "speculation" is not a good word~ Haha

*** Speculation is a behavioral noun. An economic crime in “extreme times”.

The original meaning of speculation is consensus of opinion. Here, speculation specifically refers to the behavior of "taking advantage of opportunities for personal gain", such as opportunism, speculators, and speculative trading. Daupao means flipping hands. Taken together, it means making huge profits by fraudulent means.

For example, futures speculation:

When you predict that soybean futures will fall in the future, you can first sell 10 tons of soybeans. If the price of soybean futures really falls after 3 months, you Buy another 10 tons of soybeans before the delivery period to hedge and you will make a profit

Of course, if your prediction is wrong, you will lose everything at your own risk

This is just the simplest speculation. Speculation is also a science
