The main trading system used in cryptocurrency trading is based on the fact that there is constant inflation in the world. 

This is why all deflationary assets rise in price over time.  Because bitcoin is a deflationary asset, it will continually increase in value over time. 

This is the foundation of the best trading strategy when trading cryptocurrencies.  You buy Bitcoin and expect its price to rise! 

At the same time, you can significantly increase your profits if you track the price dynamics of bitcoins. 

This will allow you to buy the first cryptocurrency at the best price and increase your profits many times over.

I think this is nice and all for someone to ask our opinion on something like this, but the reality is that it's really very very low, it's nearly nothing. I cannot really make any type of calculations and be bothered with it. People may tell you what's good or not, but they are going to be needing some chart and check all the moves you did and their timing and where it was positioned in the chart.

Such a short period of time cannot give an objective picture of your trading. And your resulting profit during this time can eventually be liquidated along with the deposit with just one unsuccessful deal if you do not adhere to risk management. Therefore, it would be best for you to start not with practice, but with theory.

He said that he is trading with a very low risk, so you are right that adding some leverage or increasing the risk might help him earn more so that he still can get something decent even though the trading fees are high. On some crypto exchanges, they do have some promotions which can help the trader to save a fee. He should learned this as well in order to maximize his earning potential.

Trading can be done in automation or by using a bot, so don't worry about the time that he spend in trading, as he can still do other activities while doing trades on the background. If all fails then his last resort would be to try investing/hodling and then working on real job.

I guess @OP is someone who dared to learn to trade. $26 is the amount of money he can afford to start trading, while I don't think many people dare to take the first steps to trade.

I saw @OP using slow scalping to buy and decline. That's great @OP but be careful because if the price goes down again, you will have to wait until the price can exceed your buying price. I see @OP trying to understand how trading is and getting used to buying and selling, no matter if he can make a profit or a loss. This process must be passed by everyone who wants to learn to trade. You are on the right track, in my opinion, and you need to learn to analyze market direction using indicators such as RSI, Bollinger Bands, MACD and MA.

Maybe this would help you out in your journey as these are my go-to resources when learning about trading!

https://www.reddit.com/r/RealDayTrading/ - Though the strategy they are using is mainly applied in trading stocks, people in this subreddit still apply the same strategy (Relative Strength/Weakness vs SPY or BTC) in crypto. Plus, this is the only resource I have seen where people generously share their trading experiences/journey most articulately and FREE.

https://github.com/SpiralDevelopment/Awesome-Crypto-Trading - Just to get your feet wet with the basics (e.g., SnR, trends, indicators).

You are incredibly fortunate that you didn't lose money on your first trades. And I think this is the ideal method to become familiar with the platform and tools you are using while also cutting the learning curve. Additionally, consider educating yourself in risk management to get a better concept of how to manage your bankroll in line with your trading strategy and risk appetite.

That's cool mate. But you are not quitting your job in order to become a trader right? You should only do trades in your free time. If you are getting confident after a week of trading then maybe try to increase your capital to $100. Always start small and only increase it little by little depending on your confidence. You can feel it anyways but do not get too overexcited because the crypto market can swing big time. A single losing trade can erase your whole month of hard-earned profit. Take your time because there is no such thing as late when it comes to trading. There are always opportunities when you become a good trader.

But he is just using the amount to learn how to trade and perhaps test a strategy. I don't see anything wrong with someone using $26 to learn how to trade, or even $10.
In fact, if anything, OP did the right thing for a start.

You don't want to put all your life savings trading, yet you know nothing about it. This is where they say over 90% of the people fail to succeed in trading in the first attempts. I do have friends who went in to trade with over $10,000 and after getting burned in the first attempt, they don't even want to hear anything to do with trading or cryptocurrencies  

I don't see it as a waste of time. I also remember starting small. I learnt a lot.

OP Thank you for landing on the Bitcoin Forum. I see you started trading by landing on cryptocurrency. There are some trading strategies that you may not know properly. That's why in just 6-7 days you earned 0.51$ from 26$. It is not enough income for a man from trading platform. This way you can invest without trading. If you invest and keep it for a long time, you can be more profitable than the trading platform.  Investing is much less risky than trading.

Trading is not easy, especially for a newbie. I applaud you on your current progress. Otherwise, so many people blow off the $26 in just a matter of hours or days. People who said that trading is not for you just because you made $0.51 after 7 days and yet you are still a newbie are probably not giving you a good piece of advice. They think trading is all about making x10 in a week, which is very wrong.

Number one thing I noticed is that your risk management game seems good. Now what you are going to work on and improve is the risk reward ratio so that you can improve your profits.

Also think about a scenario where Binance stopped their zero trading fees promo. How do you go about making sure the trading fees do not eat up your profits since you make so many trades vs small profit.

I encourage you to continue trading while you learn. Stick to your working strategy and keep improving it where necessary  

0.51$ out of 26$ are 2% - in seven days or 0.3% a day (not 0.02%) - if I calculate right, this will give you 300% as APY. That's much more than my bank gives as APY. For me it sounds good.
And you choose a pair in Binance without fees right now even as taker. Clever. Buy low and sell high. Or higher. That's the rule you follow and it's a good one. I would say: just continue and have fun trading.

So you only make $0.51 from 6-7 days with initial deposit $26? it's mean +0.020% for 6-7 days, it's less than bank interest account APY.

I will say trading isn't for you because most people can earn $0.51 in less than 6-7 days, even how poor the country he live is. I don't really understand why you need to trade with very low risk if investment is quite similar with that, you only need to hold your Bitcoin until the price reach very high in the next few years.
