I must have misinterpreted your post, apologies.I don't believe holding for 1 week should be taxed differently to holding for 50 weeks, no.I have held shares for 2-3 years and still termed them as a trade so have effectively obtained the CGT discount simply because my holding period was long enough, be damned if I'm handing any extra tax back though I think the term "investor" is far more subjective than a trader. A trader is someone I would define as someone seeking to profit upon disposal or maturity of an asset via a capital gain. An investor I would term as someone who includes ongoing income from the investment as part of (or perhaps most of) the rationale to hold.FTR I term myself as both.
