research post - what kind of investor are you & what's your process

I’m researching a product idea for self-directed investors and trying to understand how people actually make decisions once they move beyond beginner investing.

less about stock picks.

More curious about process.

* What’s the hardest part of investing once you already understand the basics?
* Do you feel overwhelmed by information, or under-informed?
* Do you use a framework/process, or mostly instinct?
* have you heard of regime investing?

I’m noticing a lot of investing media is either:

1. beginner content
2. gambling/day trading
3. buy and hold forever advice

Feels like there’s a gap in the middle but maybe I’m wrong.

Interested in honest answers.
