Bitcoin Forum

Dear beginners or newbies, this year is almost coming to an end and nothing more to show for it, instead of still doing it the way you have been doing it since the beginning of this year, why not change pattern and method, i for one i have been trading since the beginning of this year,but not enough, but after seeing that those that don't much experience as i have in this space made $22k from a project on X, that is when i decided am going to change pattern also, and yap about projects, support others in replying their post and also follow if need may be, let me see how the outcome will be when the allocations start. Yours may not be like mine, but MAKE SURE TO CHANGE DIRECTION, YOU ARE NOT TO BE DISTANCE, BUT RATHER DISPLACEMENT. I hope we all win at the end.

Trading is not very easy as some people will think. When they start trading will be when they will know how risky it is. It is more related to gambling the way many people are doing it which makes them lose. Patience is very important in trading and winning or losing small amount of money is better than losing because you are looking for huge win and resulting to liquidation of trading fund.

Still be very careful of the direction you are changing to which are altcoins buying, some people can be lucky but most people are also losing there.

I don't know the kind of trading you do, but if you're changing or moved by what you see others win, then you're looking at it the wrong way. Change is good, but how you change and why you change are important. If the person's way of trading is better than yours, then fine, but if you have no critical reason as to why you want to change, then you're just chasing shiny toys. What if the person was just lucky that one time?

Trading is a skill you learn and get better at with time, experience and more learning. You don't start a skill today and expect to be a pro at it by next month. You take your time, understand all that is needed and grow with it. Even if your trading meme that I consider as gambling, you still need experience to be good at it.

You can't be doing the same thing and expecting different result. The fact that you have traded all through the year with nothing to show for it, probably lost resources along the line should tell you that you are doing the bitcoin routine wrongly. Have you tried investing to HODL? this method is more trustworthy, the only way to be assured of a cumulative gain in bitcoin. Trading is like gambling, you win today and loose tomorrow, even more than you have gained.



It is good to change your direction when the one you have used is no longer effective. Hence you have tried trading bitcoin and found it not worth the stress you put in, I hope you also understand that changing your direction to altcoins and shitcoins if even worst. So be careful and don't invest wrongly in those coins you don't have the hopes of regaining. Bitcoin is the only trusted coin to buy and HODL.

To make it is very simple, but people tend not to understand the possible means they can go through and arrived at where or what they wanted, we don't have to be too dormant in life, we must be able to try out on new opportunities, try out best and learn more, never give up, change approaches and reattempt, never be greedy and also keep a determination towards anything we are going after, because lots of offers may be coming in this period being close to the end of the year, we are already in the last quarter and many are looking for ways they can scam and rip us of what we have earned since the start of the year.

The shills are getting more desperate (they would say more imaginative). Someone should now ask the OP how and where he made that money, and he will then write to you here or send you a PM in which he will shill the worst CEX that uses these methods to promote itself.

For a beginner, trading is never an option, because with trading you definitely lose money and eventually lose interest and motivation in all, this is why you need to stay away from trading as much as you should as a newbie.

X projects have been on the hype lately and I don't really understand, what your point and which kind of project the guy that made $22k this year in x why don't you allow him tell you the truth instead doing the try and error you may still end up wasting your time in the end if you don't do it properly.

There are things you still need to know as a person destiny are different at times we should be patient, two persons can be doing the same thing or similar and one person is making progress been successful and other person is always at the losing tray, some time people jump in an investment or project with no knowledge about it because they heard or see that Mr A is doing well in that particular business and they end up losing everything, it's good to diversify when nothing is working out but it should be what you have knowledge about.

You wouldn't have lost everything if you had invested in BTC though i don't know the kind of trading for meant.

Yes Trading is far more difficult and risky than many beginners believe and trading without plan or patience is gambling where you plan to get huge payoff only to lose all your money. Trader will make fortune in small sums frequently whereas gambler will lose fortune in his attempt to make money in short time. Your advice on altcoins is good as well and yes some individuals become lucky majority of individuals lose money there because altcoins can pump or dump in value very quickly and are far riskier than Bitcoin. It is important to remember that however you change your strategy most important rule is to be patient and control your risk so that you will not lose money first and then make profit.

Every individual has their own strategy and method for helping or building their finances in the future. If you are more comfortable with trading, then continue building your finances in the same way. However, keep in mind that trading is not suitable for everyone. Trading can cause huge losses if not managed properly and patience is very important to avoid impulsive decisions that can lead to losses, beginners who want to build their finances for the future must choose the right strategy to avoid greater risks.

Trading is also not a get-rich-quick scheme as it takes time and effort to achieve success. Traders need to learn about trading and effective strategies to manage risk effectively and avoid significant losses. If beginners find trading complicated, investing using the DCA strategy is the best option for them.

Trading is not for everyone, some people are too emotional that it becomes impossible for them to control, if they can fix that then it is fine but if they can't there is nothing we can do about it.

Trading isn't the only way to make good amount of money today in crypto space, they only have to sit and find out who they really are, knowing yourself first will make things easier for you when choosing a perfect job or niche for yourself.

You don't have to do what others are doing, find the ones that suits who you really are because at the end of the day you will last long on things that you are comfortable with, that's why I like making money out of what I have fun doing, if you don't like your job you are suffering yourself, your mental health is draining away and it will take a ton on you later.

For those who are not profitable with trading, it's okay to give up and it's not the only way to do well on this market.

You can be a holder just like what everyone is here. We don't have to take those days doing better against other traders.

Because if we want to do better and it's only going to take us a lot of losses, you think of it very well. You're taking the losses as you aspires to be an actual trader.

Or you are taking the loss and you don't have plan of taking it back. So decide well and holding is a more profitable strategy that many will confirm to say.

Good advice. Sometimes it’s not just about effort but also about changing strategy and being active in the right places. Adapting can make a big difference
Hopefully we all see better results going into the new year.

I'd say the OP has confused a cryptocurrency forum with a psychology forum. His "message for change" is often heard in motivational books by today's millionaires.
But oddly, his Twitter handle, found in his signature, matches the handle of another banned newbie, whom the OP previously described as having a very "big" account. :)

Obviously, all the phrases written in all caps are just empty words without any real experience, nothing more. OP, the best example should always come from your own life.

Trading is never an option for beginners because it is very risky and will make them lose money in the process. Instead of wasting those funds on trading and other things that will make them lose money, why can't they use the money to buy bitcoin and hold for a long time, and when they have money to buy, they can continue buying by using the DCA method to accumulate more bitcoin? I can never advise a newbie to trade because I know how it works and what people lose in the process.

I understand that everything is about patience, but trading is not for beginners, instead of wasting time trading, you can take advantage of the opportunity to learn about bitcoin and how to invest; there is nothing better at the moment than investing in bitcoin because it is an investment that you can invest in with peace of mind and confidence that you will hold for a long time.

The title of this thread is attention catching but I am disappointed reading it's content. I checked the twitter handle in Op signature hoping to see account with thousands of followers but was disappointed for the second time. The pin post from July has only six Repost and twelve likes which I don't think any serious project will consider him worthy to work with. In his Bio information, I saw community builder but he failed to build his own community first.

The worst mistake in this crypto world is to be greedy and that's exactly the mistake Op is about to make. In as much as trading is risky and not advisable, it's more profitable than being a puppet for projects that will probably make you ineligible for rewards in the end. THIS CHANGE OF DIRECTION IS UNWISE DECISION.

Be careful when verifying a new project. I'm not saying it's not profitable, but it carries a higher risk. 
The same goes for trading when you feel inadequate or have failed. If you are too influenced by the results that others achieve, you might also need to consider how much those people have spent to gain those profits. 

Trading is indeed not easy for beginners. There is much to learn and develop. It's okay if you switch to another method to make a profit, but also consider the level of risk in your new method.

Well, perhaps your suggestion to change direction by changing patterns and methods is a good one, if it has the same beneficial impact as you are doing. However, we know that it is not easy to do, and sometimes it is difficult to execute once we get the idea. I don't mean to judge you, but I think what you achieved was a stroke of luck, and it is difficult to achieve the same results in the near future. Honestly, I sometimes try to connect with projects to earn rewards from missions or challenges, but I only do so with projects that have a clear and fair allocation of rewards. By the way, what I believe in, and don't want to change is storing Bitcoin, holding it for as long as possible, and doing my best not to interfere with my Bitcoin. I believe that is what doesn't need to change.

I don't think majority of beginners will take this advise from you to change to another projects without a proper research concerning the project before investing. People are making money from the project doesn't mean they are telling you the truth guy, some times it can be one of the team of the project that is spreading the news to convince other people to make a change to the project. You can change to another projects when you verify how strong and reliable the teams of the project are before taking a move, this is my opinion.

Of course as the crypto values is volatile is so also required sequence of trading strategies in other to catch up the trade lines. Crypto trading isn't like the stock where you learns profitable marketing strategies and be successful for understanding consumers or customers needs and behaviors which has to be the tricky point of becoming successful.
In Crypto trading, strategies are always evolve as the market phases could historically repeat itself, adjust or obviously change to new directions and the reasons why volatility is unpredictable is more main reason why you've to adopt to other strategies while your mission is to mitigate of winning the crown and also curbing your risk managements because trading hasn't been an easy way to make success if you're not experienced to the market factors.

Trading is obviously not easy but hard and tough, and that’s actually the reason why any beginner or inexperienced one shouldn’t rush into trading just for the sake of peer pressures or trying to believe those made up successful stories, otherwise you will only experience the worst of your trade at the very early phase of your trading career.

Now here’s the hint, if you fail and lose on your trade, do not change directly your pattern but improve and develop it so that you will gain a more strategic trading pattern and strategy. But if you are still losing consistently, and your new and improved trading strategy isn’t working still, then that’s the time you have to create a new trading strategy that you think will have better positive outcomes.

Otherwise, you have to leave trading and focus on just plain buying and hodling. Know the fact that trading may be open for everyone, but not everyone who trade ends up being successful and profitable trader.

bro! you are right about one thing if someone keeps doing the same thing and sees no progress in it, then changing strategy is kind of necessary. but beginners also need to understand why something works before they jump right into it. not everyone will get lucky by copying others or joining random projects out there some people made money from airdrops or new tokens because they were early, active & consistent in it!!! not just because they posted or followed people. yes it is good to change direction if what you are doing is not working, but do not just follow hype blindly. learn first, observe what successful people are doing and then apply it in your own way. stay active and look for good opportunities!!! but always do it with sense not desperation.

Trading is much riskier than investing, especially for beginners. Price volatility that continues to fluctuate all the time makes market movements unpredictable, making traders very vulnerable to losses. If you are inexperienced in trading, it is best to start investing in Bitcoin with a small amount and increase it gradually. You can also learn about trading and effective strategies while slowly accumulating Bitcoin, but always do your research and understand the risks before making any decisions.

What kind of projects did they make that much money from? Are they meme coin projects? Maybe they were lucky to make good profits from trading these meme coins, but they are highly risky. If a beginner trades them, they could easily lose all their funds,, as many of these meme coins were created solely for fraud.

Other projects whose tokens we trade may also require proper study and research and trading itself requires experience and skill, as not everyone can succeed and make good money from trading just because someone else did. You should not attempt trading unless you are experienced and know how to use its tools properly, as luck may not be on our side. However, any beginner should risk what they can afford to lose, gain experience, and not remain idle in one place.

It's good to be inspired by us but I would suggest that don't just blindly follow others and instead focus on improving your skills.
Only that will take you forward in life and get you a meaningful start. It's good to keep exploring and trying out different things but always be conscious of what you are doing.
Others might have made a huge profit by investing in X project but that doesn't guarantee you the same thing. They could have been just luck but you might not.
Invest in what you believe in rather than on something you barely know. I hope you understand and start focusing on improvising your skills and take a meaningful decision.

If you remain a failure for years, then clearly that calls for a change. Change in pattern, strategy, direction and even how your mindset and perspective work. Change for the better or best, but certainly do not change for the worst. However, if you are just a beginner yet you decide to risk in trading, you don’t need change, but you need more exposure and experience trading on the market so that you will know what skills or strategies to improve, or what things to avoid when trading.

Change is good, but it requires well assessment first. Not everyone who change their pattern ends up with success, sometimes it only takes more focus and determination to make something works and succeed.

Anyone into cryptocurrency knows that trading is not easy except the newbies. This is why every newbie at one point or the other must have tried trading, thinking that it is the shortcut to be rich. But when they are caught by the reality, they will learn from experience.

Your advice is valid for those that actually learnt trading and have strategy. Some of the newbies don't have any strategy, they will just starting trading without any strategies.

Good advice and that is the best thing to do because trading is more of emotions that charts and candle sticks.

Yes, changing patterns or changing direction may be a good option for those who have been facing challenges in one particular area and are finding it difficult to be successful. For example, if someone is trading and it's not working out, it might be better for them to change their approach and start investing in Bitcoin.

But the point is, even if someone changes their pattern, there is no assurance that they will be successful in the new thing they switch to. It's even possible to face more challenges than they were experiencing in the first place.My point is this: don't change your pattern too easily. Make sure you understand what you are doing first, and why success has been hard to achieve in that area before changing to try another thing.

I hope that newbies will find my comment.

If you are new to crypto, trading is not the right way to start your journey, you will lose your mind, the easiest way to make money in crypto is having a long term mind, buy some bitcoin and hold for long term, then while the journey is ongoing you will have enough time to start learning trading, believe me just like others, trading is not for crypto beginners.

Trading is not a bad idea for  newbie who has knowledge in trading you can only discourage those without any knowledge to avoid trading so they don't end up losing money and wasting their time cause they can't make any profit when they are juwt gambling with their money but for the beginners they has gotten good knowledge in trading but has zero knowledge in investments, it is not bad if they choose trading over investments they know how well they can profit in trading if they are focused it is not advisable to venture into trading or investment without having the knowledge of it very risky cause you end up losing everything and you may never come closer to try again cause everything will become like a scam to the person.

Aside from the trading aspect of your post, i find it difficult to understand what you are saying. But However trading is not an easy way of making money in this crypto world. Perhaps I will advice you to invest in Bitcoin and HODL for a longer period of time. Atleast this will guarantee your Future finance. I think you should stay clear from anything that looks too good to be true. Not all that glitters are gold.. something you look from far and see it as though it is reliable could be deceitful. Like I said Bitcoin investment is very important than trading or any other form of making quick money. All you need is to invest and be patient.

You know what, instead of changing pattern, learn to adopt a new method or pattern instead. So if you think trading is no longer profitable on your part, don’t just quit immediately, but keep on trading at a minimal amount until you start to develop your ow trading strategy and maximize your trading potentials.

Furthermore, do not ignore bitcoin long term hodling  as well. Start to buy and hold bitcoin without planning to sell your bitcoin at a short term. That way, while you are consistently investing into bitcoin, you are also trading with your coin whenever there’s a perfect timing to trade. When both patterns paid off, multiple profits will surely be onhand.

If they already have knowledge of trading, then they are not newbies. They might be new on the forum but not in the crypto industry. People who encourage newbies to avoid trading have had bad experiences. Trading is highly technical and complicated, so it takes some level of knowledge to start profiting from it.

My usual advice to newbies in the crypto industry is to focus first on investing in Bitcoin. They can later start learning trading if they have an interest. In order to avoid big losses, they should start trading with small amounts.  The amount can increase as they gain more knowledge and master the terrain.

As for OP, their advice about changing strategies if you are not getting the right results is good. But the claim of making $22k on a project on X is controversial. They should come and explain.

Thank you so much for your reply to him and I wish to add my little advise too, although I am still learning here ooh,you have said it all, trading is not a child's play,you must have the experience and it's not something one can come with greediness or else you cry bitterly and go with empty pocket,my advise to people is,do not rush into trading if you are not expert or experienced enough, spend time to learn everything about trading before making a move..for me i prefer investment than trading because I don't have any idea about trading at all,but with what I have been hearing about trading i know it will not be easy at all..
And just like others have advise too, always be careful in which ever direction you are, it's very nice for one at a time to change direction of hustling or business, but it still requires you carefulness, because as long as money is involved no direction is easier than others to make money..

Maintaining consistency is crucial in the cryptocurrency space, but are you headed in the right direction? If not, it would be wiser to learn and find other ways to make money. If you keep doing the same thing and it doesn't yield profits, you'll need to find another alternative method by developing yourself first.

Yapping and and Airdrop has been a way to earn money in crypto space these days, but the primary concern is that which of the projects are legit and which of them are not so that we should be mindful of which project to promote because this forum is very sensitive and are against promoting fake projects, therefire you need to be vary careful and m the projects you promote.

Don't quit your job because of crypto trading or investment, crypto is a flexible investment, you can trade in your office. As you ear invest in Bitcoin and other crypto. As you learn more about trading, and making profit, you can take off your job and concentrate on trading, Because it's hard  to mix trading and 9hrs job . But as a beginner don't leave your job, until you start making profit from crypto. If you don't have a job, ensure you take time to gain more knowledge, learn about risk management, it will really help you in crypto world.

Only thing I can say is that change is very good but you have to check properly on the type of direction you are going into so that you do t lose much more compared to the amount you have been losing through trading. You said you are knowledgeable about trading but haven't been making money from it and those who do not have your type of knowledge on trading are making $22k and you re not. Does it mean they are more knowledgeable than you? If you are trying something else you must be careful so that you don't chase people's stories and get scammed.

Sometimes, it's not about changing of pattern. I will used friend as an example. This my friend has one shop where he does business but this business is new to the environment, he was looking for customer but the turn up was slow, he never gave up until things change. Not like he change the settings but the business is a season demand business, there are times you make little sells, it's not because you are not doing the right thing but it because that's the nature of the business.

You don't have to give up on things you have plan but make sure you are checking up your plans if it need an adjustment. Another 2 scent I will like to add, stop measuring life with ending of years. It shows how educated we are for us to be comparing life achievements when you know there are plenty of years left. It's only a dead person that doesn't have story to tell, don't give up but strategies your moves and work on them, life doesn't end every December.

The only way which I know is more reliable is to invest in bitcoin and HODL, I know this may sound crazy to you but believe me if you stack enough bitcoin and HODL for like 4-5 years or more. then, you will come back here to testify about the good News. If I tell you that I have tested trading for the first time it means I'm telling lies, infact I have never thought nor imagine myself going into trading before.

Yep, is good to try out new things. There's this saying that if plan A doesn't work out fine then you have to switch to plan B. But while thinking about switching to plan B you need to be very cautious of what you're doing so that you won't end up wasting a whole lot of time to achieve nothing.

That's why it's always advisable to strictly stay away from trading. Try and have the knowledge on trading before you begin; know the risks involved in trading and its financial benefits. Some newbies are thinking maybe trading is the best way for them to accumulate their wealth. Although trading pays, it just requires knowledge. So when I started something from the early year to half a year, I saw that nothing had added up. Definitely I will switch. If it was trading that didn't give me the results I wanted, then I would switch to an investment, so changing the pattern or method in trading could end up losing your money.

Moreover, as a newbie, kindly consider Bitcoin investment aside from trading. Bitcoin also has risks, but once you know the risk management and knowledge about Bitcoin investment, things will be better. Even the DCA method is best for newbies to begin their Bitcoin investment journey.

There is no easy trading. And it requires more experience, skills and working strategies first before you will find yourself in profits. That’s the reason why only few proceed into trading, the rest just settle on long-term investing alone and hold coins at their own risk.

Now, if you don’t find yourself not actually making progress with trading, then you leave it. But remember also that if you want to experience profits, you should work for it instead of quitting. Changing pattern is welcome, but you can also apply a new pattern while you are still working the old pattern until it works. That is called resilience and flexibility.

I really like the way you took your time to explain things to OP, because he or she maybe thinking that trading is very simple and less riskier. and  a lot people out there think or feeling same way that trading is not risky, but when they get into it they will discover that the so called trading can bring them out from there houses and send them direct to the street, just as Forex trading has sent some person's in my country from there houses to the forest's, since they failed to approach it with caution. And as for OP he or she should be very careful, because not every direction is worth following, some directions can lead to distruction or land he or her in big  mess if not approach with caution.

Thanks for the encouragement bro, because truly the year is actually coming to an end and yet nothing to show for it, and coming across this post right seems to be the very best thing for me today. Because I'm actually not going to give up as a beginner and newbie about Bitcoin and this forum, despite the fact I have been learning about Bitcoin for quite some time now. So onces again, thanks for encouraging us..

I believe there is something you are not doing right if after being in the same space for a year and, still not growing like others who are in that same space with you. Maybe you need to learn the strategies very well, and do not be overwhelmed, still inquire from those that are growing, so you can gain more knowledge, and grow better.
Do not give up with the thought that you are not lucky, just do the right thing and luck will find you.

Many don’t understand; beginners who trade always end up losing their money because they don’t have the experience, and they are eager to make money from trading, especially when they are close to people who earn much from trading.

They want to get the same standard as those people, and it’s impossible because they are starting. Many people they see online have been in the market for a very long period of time; they lose too, but beginners don’t want to learn and don’t want to learn first before earning.


Sure there is something wrong; if he has been in the space for long, I think he is supposed to know the issue he is facing. He can’t be losing and still doing the same thing; he should ask rather so he will understand if he will meet a professional trader and explain they are going to put him through it. However, trading is not easy; that is just the fact that people need to understand, and anyone interested in it needs to learn very well.
