Bitcoin Forum

Just wondering if there's any resources to learn the market. I have babypips. Just didn't know if there were much better resources to learn how to watch charts, notice signs, or anything informative.

Is learning waves and what not even useful in the crypto world?

Thanks ahead of time. Will donate some xvg for helpful info!!

Just don't want to scroll through 1000s of coins so any help is appreciated!

I think crypto market is a little different, you have to keep an eye more on news and fundamentsls, also keep an eye on market cap, volume and trend and you can make good money.

no help?

You can go through visit this page www.coinmarketcap.com for reference and you can find top Altcoins and some other good coins listed.
It's one of the most trusted source of Cryptocurrency ranking and you can find almost compete information.

The other guy gave you a link that is worth looking at. The coins that you research should be enough for you to invest in. There is only a batch of profitable coins in that site.

To really get the knowledge about altcoins and cryptocurrencies in general, you just have to try things out. There is a tip I'd like to give you though; don't invest in a coin just because someone says so, there are a lot of topics here on the forum made by people just to get you to invest in their coin. You can also learn what effect holidays have and about corrections. Those are all just things I learned so far in my short time here in the community. Hope this helps

Investopedia.com and you can try to get some info about TA and FA through the reliable site like this one https://cointelegraph.com/news/price-analysis-jan-06-bitcoin-ethereum-bitcoin-cash-ripple-iota-litecoin-nem-cardano every week there will be more analyzation and you can try to watch it. remember to join in the ico trading group and you will find so many experts in there.

this is the way most beginners do. but this is indeed the best way to start learning the crypto market. crypto market is controlled by investors. and where they enter simultaneously to one coin where the coin will increase its volume so that the price will grow fast

The answer is simple -> No resources -> No signals - privileged information - updates.

If you really want to have some "privileged information" just like you are saying in there, then the only thing that you can do is just pay a subscription to one of those telegram groups who are always pumping and dumping.

if you want to learn, or just to receive some tips, just follow the crypto's guru's on twitter,it is simple as that.

In your case the time of maturity can help you, study technical and fundamentalist analysis, try putting your knowledge into practice, we have to learn to surf in the wave, not to swim against. You can not forget the fundamental, every coin has to have a purpose.

I think you just focus to what some coin you like, and find some information about that coins.
Like when that coin is "born", what price when they born, and what actual price for now....

If you wanna try learn with all coins, it will be make you waste your life.

Cryptomarket is so new and so crazy that we all are tray to understand what works and what doesn't.
Btw - I've a long practice of forex, with good results - I think that the laws of trading are the same, so with good technical tools and strategy wi can master the market a little better that by gut or instinct.

Cryptocurrency is a completely new domain, and it seems that usual analysis don't work.
So, a good part of take good decisions is to start to identify the patterns that seem to bring to a grow.

You can try investopedia,a lot of newbies started there and come up to be a good trader today,you can also use youtube for more detailed tutorials.

All those technical analysis that rule in the forex and stock trading market don't really work in the crypto market. If you can devote time to research all the coins in the market and the team behind every project, follow news on product launches,  partnerships and major events that affect market movement, I think you will know the market better and faster.

Yes, learning technical analysis is actually great for crypto. Infact it works best here in my opinion. Also babypips is a great source for learning. I think before you put your own money, try paper trading, and do not get carried away and try your hand on margin, that is how most people get rekt.

follow some twitter og's that are showing pretty good technical analysis skills, many of them are publishing their charts, also on youtube you can find a ton of videos for stock or the crypto markets, to learn how markets work...i can recommend you following chris dunn on youtube

I don't know any great resources specifically for the crypto world, there's probably not too many as it's such a new industry. But anything on trading stocks or forex will still apply to a good extent.

Try to follow which coins have news items on coin calendars.

Apart from that it is trading like anything else, if you need help with that maybe order some books about trading

I am also just getting started. Friend did with a group at work and they are all quite successful. He recommended video about bitcoin by discovery channel on youtube and after watching Ian Ballina videos about ICO. He is big Neo and Ethereum fan.

You must try to understand how the market is functioning. Investors are the ones who are deciding about the fate of the particular coin. Without the investors, the coins are ending in a demise. Try to analyze the charts, make thorough researches, gather knowledge that is needed for the full understanding of the market. You can compare the crypto market to the stock market. The difference between these 2 is the group of the people that are holding the shares of the specific coin. Crypto market has the tremendous group of the coin holders and the fluctuations are happening every minute. Coinmarketcap is the good place to start gathering the knowledge about the charts. Try to virtually do the trades with the piece of the paper and no investment and when you get good at it then it is time to start with the trades.

Besides understanding how the market works,crypto traders have several tools to assess the cryptocurrency market. One of them is an approach known as Technical Analysis. Using this method, traders can get a better understanding of the market sentiment and isolate significant trends in the market. This data can be used to make more educated predictions and wiser trades.
Tech analysis considers the history of a coin with price charts and trading volumes, no matter what the coin or project does. As opposed to technical analysis, fundamental analysis is more focused on establishing if a coin is over or under valued. A wilder research and reading about trade chart plus online courses in trading will boost your knowledge.

It's very difficult to understand what works and what doesn't, as in crypto we don't have enough historical data to analyze.
Btw, I think that with good technical tools and strategies we can take better that by  instinct.

Although difficult, but must be studied, so we can really understand the market, because if we just rely on the same instinct as gambling, because in gambling nothing can be learned, all rely on luck.

True words, just to gamble might work, but mostly it does not (from past experience), I also think to learn about what are you investing in is the best option. It cost time, but its time well
invested if you want to make real money.

The problem with crypto market is that when you understand something, it's already obsolete :(
The best way is to focus on some basic principle that don't change, and try to apply them at the different situations.

go to the telegram channel of the crypto you are interested in.  They have the information first before others.

Yes, since there are so many different crypto coins, this website is very good for finding basic information about them, Also, you can use mytoken APP to see details, you can download it from mytoken.io.

Doing research. Decide what type of time-frame works best for you to observe, for instance, some people takes interval 15-min intra-times and others prefer 1hr, 4hr, 6hr, even daily. With a basic strategy for trading, “Buy low, sell high”, but this should be doing in 1 day or short time.

Youtube videos does help with the progress of learning how the market works. There is nothing better than just doing it though.

Of course, before you do anything in the market, you need to learn the market as much as you can and only then can you do any actions to buy or sell tokens or coins or participate in ICO

Crypto market - even apparently new and different - is just a market, and if you have a good economic background you can understand it without too much difficulty

It is a little different from the stocks and you need to pay more attention to tne news. You need find the related news and to find out if they are true. The ews play an important part in the price.

No pain , no gains !Don't be lazy in crypto, or you will not get what you want.

Crypto is a new domain and there is a lot to learn. Moreover, it seems that usual economic methods don't apply, as things are moving too fast.
I'd be very glad if I'd understand how not be scammed...

If you want to learn the market & what investors are doing you can look at websites like
https://cryptorated.com (https://cryptorated.com)

Helpful & up to date ICO news & information.

As a beginner myself, Google is your best friend. Watch a lot of YouTube videos, check the numerous posts on Steemit and other platforms focused on crypto. And just try for yourself. Buy your first crypto coins on an exchange and try to make some little gains with it. Currently I'm looking into ICO's since I have the feeling to constantly be runing after the facts and am buying at just the wrong times. I have to learn to buy in at the right time and have faith in the research I've done on specific coins. I'm now building my portfolio and just HODL the coins that I think have potential for the future.

You can also throw your money at poker games online but as I see it, this is a quick rush and you can lose your money in a matter of minutes. With crypto it is also a gambling game, but you can enjoy this a lot longer. When you have your first little gains you get more and more interested in the world of cryptos and you will automatically do more research and learn more as you go.

In fact, the people who really make money in the money market are those who hold the long line. If you want to make more money, then hold it. This is the unchanging truth.

Took very long time to kinda know it all, this is by yourself. No one gonna hold your hand anyway.

I have many references that can help you, among others google and in this forum. lots of analysis about altcoin here. maybe medium and reddit you can find sub forum for altcoin you want to buy. you can see in CMC to analyze history, market, growth and population, supply and circulation.the analysis in this forum can also find the answer. try to do your own research.

In the market there is an unprecedented growth of both the exchange rate and market capitalization. The best time to invest.

There is so much to learn that sometimes I become discouraged. But I see a lot of success stories, so this keeps me motivated.

You should join some closed telegramm groups, it can be very useful. Also follow some announcers on twitter, some of twits can be very useful too, and rebember simple rules: buy when market red and sell when it's green.

Of course we need to learn, to have good results. The question is "what exactly to learn?"
It seem that all traditional methods don't work in crypto. So, what can we learn?

Well, the only way to learn something here is by trial and mistakes: no past history, no books, no courses...
It's thrilling :-)

The crypto market is new and chaotic, but the basic principles are the same everywhere.

Expect to lose in the cryptoworld, you cannot win always here, unless you are very fortunate. You will need to be aware of the market behavior and reactions of the different coins. You will learn from mistakes. The best thing to do is listen or follow experienced users, join Telegram groups, participate in a few bounties and try to understand how these work.

Cryptocurrency is a completely new domain, and it seems that usual analysis don't work.So, a good part of take good decisions is to start to identify the patterns that seem to bring to a grow. I don't know any great resources specifically for the crypto world, there's probably not too many as it's such a new industry. But anything on trading stocks or forex will still apply to a good extent.

Learning the market is not very hard, just like every other market in the world the basic principle is the same. You need to learn and adapt accordingly.

I can recommend a couple of news forums, he sit on them, such as : Forklog, CryptoLenta, BitLenta , they are in the telegram is

Ask questions, read news and forus, ask questions, listen carefully, keep your eyes open, ask questions.

There are many soures to find info and a friendly community, ready to point you the direction. Mistakes are inevitable, but it shouldn't stop you from movig on.

A lot of topics come in the forum to get the knowledge about cryptocurrency and moreover videos are available on the net about knowledge of the same.

Always ask if you want to learn, always ask an experienced user of the community and check forums like this one for more information.

so far I have not learned anything before I continue studying. hopefully it will help me get the link. many thanks in advance.

The best way to learn about cryptocurrency and blockchain is to learn in Bitcointalk, because this forim has a lot of information about cryptocurrencies.

This market is not limited to one resource . Then you need to look at many factors , different news ,project plans ,project implementation ,road map . Graphical analysis . But if you master this you will be in a good advantage and can consistently earn

the task with anchoring as gives of reference as investors to gains of confidence on possessing use with notice of confirmation to enter of further as displacing unit of assessment to put with the table of exchange with the market.

Actually, It is very important to learn the market before you buy or invest..., also the study of currencies expectations is essential .  and I guess that the best ways to learning about  different digital currencies are :  

Firstly, the price and particularly their evolution in every period. Secondly, the market cap and it is very essential, Especially when their value is huge (like the market of bitcoin: 293 Billion Dollars and Ethereum 129 Billion dollars).
Thirdly, The volume is the amount of shares every period (24h) and  when the Volume increases, then the price of this currency will rise too.

For every beginner, I would recommend the CoinMarketCap. The website is currently offering the great view of the current market curves. You can look for each coin individually and through the backlinks make a deeper research that will lead you to the choice of your coin you will invest in.

Good luck in finding the profitable crypto coin!

The only way to learn the cryptocurrency market is to do it.  Do some trades and learn from them.  You learn from experience.  There isn't anything anyone can teach you in a book that can be more valuable than actually doing the trades yourself.  Here's some advice, always have some fiat, bitcoins/ethereums in your hand and never go all in on anything.  

You should try to understand how the market works. Investors are those who decide the fate of a particular coin. Without investors, coins end in death. Try to analyze the graphs, carry out thorough research, gather the knowledge necessary for a complete understanding of the market.

Learn the basic principles of forex trading, then - with SMALL sums - try to apply here, just to see if they work

Search on Youtube with keywords "cryptocurrencies technical analysis" I'm sure there are a lot of learning resource to be taught. Make sure you learn by doing, you can make a demo-trading account or you start with the low amount of money to make you get used to cryptocurrencies market.

Forex and Stock trading is what most people know. Cryptocurrency trading is not that hard to learn if you know that already.

I don't know it there is something that we can learn, out of making experiments hoping that will work...

Beware, just when you think you have worked it out, things could go pear shaped.

Thank you for the link newbie here in cryptocurrencies. I was a investor in stock market, I was just curious in crypt on how this system work. But by looking on the graph I think somehow this will have a similarity in terms on law of supply and demand.

I don't know any grate resources or link. I just want to advice you that there are many books and online application that you can read and watch that related in crypto world and tradings.

What I do is to watch coinmarketcap on a regular basis (daily, if you are obsessed) and also follow some popular youtubers in order to be able to hear different opinions about what's going on out there.

It's a small number of crypto currency books but I can tell you he may read a books about the stocks market. Nowadays ICO and all that sort of things are coming closer to the stocks market rules and we can use their hints to our help.

Babypips is best for forex trading but the valuable lessons learnt there can be applied to crypto currencies if you want to analyse the market in the technical way by using indidcators. Yet it wont be of much help. In crypto market you can apply the method of position and swing trading from forex and forget about the coins you hold. You will come back to your wallet with a smile.

An interesting suggestion, once I see coinmarketcap, there are lots of coins there, so we can monitor one by one coin prices and graphics development, so we can make sure to choose the right one.

Many phenomena on the cryptocurrency market remain for me incomprehensible, and this despite my two-year experience with cryptocurrencies and quite a large income from them. In some extent coins just a game.

Just learn some basic technical analysis in investopedia,watch some video tutorials in youtube and you are good to go.

If you want to learn and read about the waves,chart about the coin you must go into the coinmarketcap.com in this site,you will see the price now. The percentage if it drop or rise and at the same time it show you the graph price of the coins. Not only that. All coins was found in this site. So i suggest you this site. About the others you must search on your own

Crypto market is so crazy and unpredictable that I don't know how we can really "learn" something: any time you think you have understand something, the reality changes and you have to start again from the beginning.

If anything my experience with day trading crypto is that it is very easy to get burned. Don't automatically assume that the same rules for forex or whatever apply here too. This is still a largely unregulated market where insider trading and market manipulation is the standard rather than the exception. So as a new comer this means its not a level playing field. I think the best way to learn is through experience. Read a lot, know what you are buying and why. Take risks but with small amounts of money so you'll what to do and what not to do. You can be a TA ace but thats not going to save you if happened to buy bitconnect based on chart analysis....

for myself I am also still confused about the market that I am not sure just reading the chart of the existing signal.

when we have bull or bear market trends learning will not help much, of course knowing technology and able to separate good projects makes sense, especially for long term investors

I'm new in this platform of crypto currency and specially how to look on the market. But I'm sure there is always a way to learn the market better. Hope some of you guys could provide us he reference. Thank you.

Wow, I really like the idea of making a calendar with coin related info like updates and road map dates etc. That would really help keep on top of potential big moves for a coin. Thanks for the tip!

Try to follow advice from friends above. www.coinmarketcap.com, there you will find the answer may be able to help you to know the trend token or coin currently, view the graph up turunya value bitcoin and altcoin, trend market sales of 1h, 1d, 7d and so on. from there you can do the analysis of the best to trade and investment. for additional information you can get in this forum bitcointalk.org. here you can knew information about bitcoin and altcoin, as you do this time to ask and always read the information updated.

To learn something like that you need to get back to school and learn economy or finance, There you will learn some math methods to work with the stats. But those methods have a % error, they can't read the future at all.

Some years ago a read a joke about economists; They spend 50% of their time predicting markets and money, and the other 50% to explain why their predictions fail  ;D

But this guy is right, crypto is a different market:


For cryptos you just have to keep an eye on the chart 24/7  ::)

Babypips is a great tool! But yes, for forex rather than for crypto.

I have a strong opinion that experienced traders do not really have an edge in crypto markets, other than that they no longer need to learn basic trading lingo (how to set orders, stop loss, things like that). I know some who use technical analysis to great effect, but also others that have found failure with it. The thing you must remember with TA is: it all works on data. And other than Bitcoin, most alts only have data going back a year maybe two or three. That is very little data to work with!

Not sure if you're a sports fan but we've created a new platform that combines the worlds of crypto and sports. Its an easy platform to learn the ins and outs of peer-to-peer betting while using cryptocurrencies. We built it so that everyone can have an easy and secure way to make bets on their favourite teams.

Give it a try and let us know what you think. http://cryptosportz.com/

Good luck!  :)

Since I am a new here I couldn't suggest any markets.  But still am hooing that anyone could provide some reference as what others are asking. Thanks

There are plenty of resources where you can learn the ABC about the market, and most of them are free.
But please note that they usually are about forex, that is a well established market, even if a difficult one.
Nobody really knows about crypto, most people become millionaires just by luck.
So, study everything, but don't trust too much the models you'll find.

To "learn the market" sounds a real "mission impossible"!
All you can do is to study a very little part of it, to understand some cause-effect connections, and to start to test what you believe you have understood.
Ah, this just in case we are talking about "general market"
About crypto, anything is so new and so sensible to unknown manipulation, that all you can learn is to smell a scam.

Learning the market is really a good thing as it helps you in having a fair idea of things which are happening in the surroundings. Moreover, you also need to know about the market as all your decisions will be greatly influenced by the market.

You need to analyze the market first and based on these conditions, you have to think well and then decide something accordingly in order to have better results.

You can try investopedia,that is where i learned basic to advance technical analysis,it has better topics than babypips.You just need to know some technical indicators do not rush,read and watch some videos in youtube,learn and to not stop learning in each and everyday because making it a hobby will make you an advance trader.

There is no condition to learning in trading in cryptocurrency. Those that are doing well in trading cryptocurrency are those that have develop their own method peculiar to their experiences. You will have to develop your own method through your experience and there is no timeline for it.

in bull market ni matter what you coin is if it hype too much expect prices may surge but that is only temporary once bullish period is over price may down significantly. good projects  are for long term investment though price movement moves gradually it is not easily shaken down when market is bearish

in the crypt is not very long and all the methods of market analysis, I do not know, but as for me, Japanese candles are the best kind of graphs, where one can clearly see the of a pamps or dumps

Studying all the processes of buying or selling tokens or coins is certainly a very useful activity, but in the end I think you will still come to investing. I'd rather study investing your money in projects. This process is called ICO.

You may try investopedia.com they have lessons regarding cryptocurrency too. YouTube also is a good source of information in terms of learning specially if you are not a reader. When you have a basic knowledge about crypto, you are now ready to search for a coin that is profitable to invest.

there is now an increase in every stock for all altcoin and I think for 2 - 3 months again all will recover.
how about you ?  ???

You are right at some point, but the foundation on how to learn the market will always start on the supply and demand of every coin, you always need to look at the statistics of a coin you are interested before investing in order to determine if there is a chance to get a profit or none.

I think that the first skill to learn if you want to trade cryptocurrencies is to not panic!
Volatility is so high and anything is so unstable and unpredictable that it's very easy to have an emotional breakdown.
Some basis of trading can help, but I see that even experienced forex trader have big difficulties to understand what happens.

The very first and most important is psychology. You are your biggest enemy. I know the most popular advice here is don't panic, but it is very easy to say and almost impossible to do. So, I advise control yourself, I know everybody is worry and panicking regardless of what they are saying, but only few can control it and resist the internal pressure. 

Well you need to learn. You can do the shortcuts, but you could lose money. I think that no one wants to lose their investment.
You will probably not gonna sit few hours a day in front of laptop and read everything about crypto like me or other guys, but one hour is not to much.
Start trading with very small amounts. See what are the good and the bad moves.

Try to learn also how to identify and read market chart patterns for it will also gives you edge and an overview on how these market charts changes and behaves. I used to read these articles about chart patterns here https://www.investopedia.com/university/technical/techanalysis8.asp  I learned that having skills about these and identifying these factors could prove useful.

Good advices for newbie! I can add that it is important to read such forums as BitcoinTalk and learn more about cryptocurrency from real people.

Crypto market is very different, Should really understand and appreciate for your trading or investing in it. You should pay more attention or to know the latest news and fundamentals at any time, also saw pluktuatifnya market prices, volumes and trends because otherwise your risk of loss is enormous.

The first thing to learn is how not be scammed: the crypto market is a real far west, and there is a scammer at any corner.
Then you can start to trade.

You check investopedia,that is where i learned basic technical analysis when i was a newbie like you there would be plenty of technical lessons and surely if you are doing good  you will be a great trader too.If you dont know what is your current lesson's try to search it in youtube it will be more easier if you use thee two resources,do not ask for people's help so your analysis can be trained.Do not stop learning every so you will be an expert someday,.

There is a lot of value in the crypto money market. it is necessary to work hard and research first to enter this market.thank you

wow, that's really a very good site to learn about investing. But my English level is not so good at reading all the words in the article. I need to study an English course so that I can learn better. Thank you very much for introducing us to a very useful website.

There are a lot of free resources about trading, but most of them are related to forex, not to crypto.
Btw, the principles are the same, and you can apply them to your crypto activity

Me too I'd like to learn the crypto market, but there are so many aspects that I'm really overwhelmed.
I tried to read here something, but I'd really like to have a kind of mentor to help me.

in this forum is a source for learning market or crypto patterns. there is a lot of learning material, you just need to search and screen any post that you think is useful for knowledge and understanding. or you can search on the search page on google. yes there is a lot of material that can be a source of knowledge for you. try it

To improve your knowledge about the cryptocurrencies, I think you should follow the news on the forum and the other news sources. And, to improve your trading skills, you should learn how to make investment decisions on your own, in my opinion, you can gain that skill by following the price tables. Good luck!

Learning the market of cryptocurrency will take a little time to understand but first thing first try to understand the particular ICO you want to invest,the concept and do not invest on ICO without a product to back their project.

Market is so unstable, everyone thinks about reducing their risks. I consider using professional investment platforms might be useful in future. There is one interesting project named Safinus. I have big expectations about this ICO.

Learn by doing. I started with a couple hundred dollars and just immersed myself. I learned a ton and made a few mistakes, but IMO it is probably the best way to get a feel for the market.

You could also try https://testnet.bitmex.com/ if you want to do some leveraged trading without any risk. Trading a margin is definitely something I wouldn't just jump right into with real money.

We can also learn by reading threads about the Market. There are threads here in the forum that we may read for us to learn. Many people are sharing their knowledge about a certain Market which we can adopt and learn.

Markets are always similar cause of human factor. Crypto Market is just little faster then stocks market.
All patterns and trend lines are same as all other markets if you are babypips member so you will not fail.

Learning the market is very important and should not be taken for granted as this can really help us to be successful in this trading cryptocurrency. That's good to hear investing with product is good as this one can be secured in your investment.

well you should follow the forums here and thats 1 step and also ask and question you have. not dumbs tho. And also you should follow the number 1 sites for bitcointalk and stuff and also watch the market on crypto market just to stay tuned.

 This is the way most beginners do. but this is indeed the best way to start learning the crypto market. crypto market is controlled by investors.

the customs of work as moderating use of release with the drawing of market, gives as chance on focus as moderating details with the decision on when to put of initials on assessment as might to gains with returns of displacement.

All you can learn is to avoid big scam and to identify the chart patterns that indicate a coming collapse: out of this, I've a good experience in forex, but standard methods seem completely useless.

There are various sources to learn the market. but with the master apprentice relation from the ones who know the most effective method. it is first necessary to learn graphical interpretation and follow up daily.  ::)

The only thing that needs to be learned is graphic interpretation. it's inevitable to win for a well-comprehended investor. abundant profits ...  8)

I agree.
Learning the market is a decidedly ambitious goal.
Better to focus on some basic principles, and then to study a few niches in depth.
Otherwise the energies are dispersed and nothing is gained.

The most helpful thing you can do is to make some experience in it. you should try investments, tradings and then decide what is better for you.
