Investing aims to create wealth over the long term by buying assets and holding it for a long duration.

Trading aims at generating profit by frequently buying and selling stocks.
For example, If you buy a stock today and commit to holding it for the next three years, then you are investing. If you buy a stock today and decide to sell the stock by the next day, then you are trading.
It will interest you to know that Investors tend to make sound investments and relax. On the other hand, traders are actively involved in the market and require their time & presence to make profits.
