As a new investor I don't think it requires much knowledge.
(Though the saying goes that knowledge is king)
But once you go to the market, you can learn all kinds of things by yourself.
Actually, am not ok with the statement because going into investment without having adequate knowledge  is like starting a journey without a direction and can also be liking to  someone that intend to start a business without   business ideas. As a new investor I think  having adequate and the right  knowledge  before you invest is a wise approach.
Waiting to go to the market and learn everything yourself is like a woman that is trying to go to the market to buy different items  without making list of things to buy in order of their importance and check  if her  money  is enough to buy everything in the list which may lead to mistake and not being organized. An investor that has the adequate knowledge before investing will be more organized and confidence compared to someone without adequate knowledge.

There won't be anything we can do about it when we become old, we truly need to take our responsibility to make it right while we're still young.
Absolutely correct, life in the  young is sweeter compared to old age because you have the energy to do what ever you desire to do. No wonder our one of our lecturer in school was advising us that what ever thing we need to  we should start now we are still young he infancies basically on marriage using himself as an example that if you wait to have everything before you get married and refused to marry when you are still young that you will use your retirement benefit in training your children at old age when you are suppose to be relaxing and taking care of yourself.
 
As a newbie in the forum seeing this type of discussion is very interesting as this advised can also be applicable to investment. You must not wait till you have everything before you start investing  you can plan yourself and invest at your level using DCA method like they say drop of water make an ocean. Investing in younger age is very sweet because you will have all the time and energy and also benefit maximally on your investment and enjoy stress free life at old age.

Many of them do as they promised, but what we needed is beyond that. We need good economy and good standard of living, but our government can not give us that because they themselves do not understand how they can, which makes them not to be good leaders. I aso think there is something innate about us that we just prefer not to believe that we can be like the Whites countries and other developed countries. Being blacks is disappointing, but we still like that we are blacks.

There is nothing wrong for being a black both the  black and the  white is being created by the same God. We should never limit ourselves for whatever reasons if our leaders are not representing us well it does not mean that is because we are black. We can not move from where we are to a level we are  supposed  to be if we keep on limiting ourselves. What we are and what we shall be is the product of our mind so is high time we should start renewing our mind.  if our leaders failed us is not we that failed we can do it right once we have a renewed mind. Rwanda is an Africa country and black also but as soon as they discovered themselves their story changed. After all some Nigerian in foreign country are doing better. We too can discover ourselves once we have a renewed mind.
 
I strongly believe that the destiny of this country lied in the hands of the youth because every nation get the leaders they deserved there is always opportunity to make things right. If we tell ourselves we can do it and do it right we can actually do it right.

Actually I don't really no were those investors get that concept that Bitcoin must get to a certain dip before they could buy, actually is a very wrong mentality because considering the potential of Bitcoin and how the price movement behave I see no reason why an investor will allow buying dip to stand as determining factor on his Bitcoin investment because if it happens that the price did not get to the exact point they wish to buy that means they will automatically end up not buying at all.

Perhaps it will be very wise for an investor to learn from the mistakes of other investors because there has been numerous of testimonies concerning how many investors lost the opportunities they had on investing on Bitcoin all in the name waiting for the right moment before they could invest and at the end they end up not getting the opportunity to buy Bitcoin and still so many other investors are still having that mentality of waiting for the dip before they could buy.


Exactly, I think one of the thing that can also help an investor when it come to bitcoin is  being flexible knowing that you are not the one controlling the market the market is controlled by different factors so waiting for it to reach a certain dip before you invest is like saying you are the one controlling the bitcoin  movement and I can say this is really a sign of greed and fear of course it will lead  to missing out from good opportunity.
 
Knowing that investing in bitcoin is a long time investment, you should plan better and keep aside the money for investment as this will help you avoid anything that will alter your reasoning because as an investor you must be psychologically  stable.
Also, timing the bitcoin market earlier will give you an edge over the market as the higher chance of profitable investment will be there instead of investing late.

I see a lot of traders who fail in this field, because they do not have patience and consistency in learning, that they are successful traders who study for more than a year or even two years so that they can have the ability to analyze the market and can have their own methods in making profits from trading.
Many who have just learned one month to one semester they give up and no longer want to trade, please note that naturally fruitful trees are trees that grow with a long period of time so that they can bear heavy fruit and can provide benefits for both the owner or others.

Don't give up quickly in trading, there are many mistakes that you have to take lessons from, walk slowly and with principles in trading with risk management that you can control and not overdo it so that you can take advantage for yourself.

Focus, be consistent, learn from your mistakes and think that building an empire takes time.

What are your additions to understanding the learning time for someone who is learning to trade? I think sharing here will benefit those who may be close to giving up in this field.



 The truth remains that trading is not for everybody, some people are used to making money  through applying much energy  as such when such person venture into trading  it will be hard for him or she to keep profit made while trading.
Trading required high level of discipline. As a beginner you should  first note the following:
 
 1.understand that trading is not get rich quick business.
Once you have this mindset it will help you  to maintain high level of discipline knowing fully that the market will always provide you with new opportunities and you will avoid chasing trade for  the fear of missing out.

2.Have different source of income.
Trading is more of psychology, having another source of income to solve your basic needs will help you to succeed in trading business. Never you have the mindset of solving your urgent needs using trading. Trading is a long time journey.
 
3.Develop a trading plan.
Never you trade without trading plan and always follow your trading plan accordingly. A good trading plan should be develop based on risk management
you must determine how much you can loss in a trade and number of trade for a day as well as your daily target and not every day your target can be met.

4.Avoid Greed.
Greed is a big enemy to trader. Some people will hold make a winning trade become a loosing trade just because they are expecting more move in their favor but forgetting that they are not the one controlling the trading market. Always be flexible and never you trade without putting stop loss and take. All you need is just to be discipline and never violate your trading plan because of greed. Risk what you can afford to loss.

5. Never you trade with small capital.
If you want a long time success in trading always try and trade with big capital. You can make profit using small capital but you can loose all your fund and the profit easily because it will affect your Psychology. Instead you can use the small money and register to pro firm and once you passed their trading challenges you can have access to trade with big capital which will help you to save  and fund your personal account with big capital.

Trading is not too hard just follow it with a refined mindset you will succeed.

It is very important as a business person to strategize your business perfectly before taking action, today so many people have failed to become successful business men and women not because the business is not a good one or it does not give you profit but their are some little factors that can hinder a business..
SIGHT: Some people have a nice business but they don't sell out any of their goods months in months out what they have still remains with them most times they will tell you that somebody is manipulating them Omo nothing Is wrong check your location if it's not good change it.

Greed: Many people are very greedy when it comes to business they look for over gain this factor can hinder a business some people would have this goods that are getting bad for consumption but still keep it to be sold till it gets bad and at last it will be thrown away,who lost.

Every business person should learn how to strategize so well before going to set up a business.


Absolutely correct, is important before one start a business you should first study the environment and ask yourself and provide answers to the following questions:
1.What does people need in such environment that is lacking or that is not properly taken care of?
Knowing exactly what people need that is lacking in an area is very import for planning a business. Doing different business from others will help you to have minor competition at the initial stage of the business as well as building business network.

2.Did I have enough knowledge for this business?
Before you venture in any business you should try and have basic knowledge of the business. Never you do business because you saw people doing the business and making profit. You can start the same business that you saw people making profit and loss all your money if you don't have the basic knowledge of the business. knowing the nitty-gritty of the business a key to a successful business.


3. Did I have enough capital to start this business?
Some people are waiting for others to bring business ideas for them. Once you start a business that has potential with small capital you will end up bringing business ideas for others. Your business can never withstand competition because you will see some people using big capital to start the same business you are doing in the same areas. once your customers come today you don't have what they need and tomorrow the same story you will end up losing almost all your customers to your competitors.

Lastly always ensure you do your business with a touch of excellent because the success of every business is customers. A touch of excellent will ensure you are transparent not doing your business with fake life, not being rude to your customers.  This reminded me to a day I went to buy eggs from a Shope and there were mixture of both small and big eggs in the eggs crate and the woman was selecting small one all through for me and I told her instead that she should mixed them and she reply if I select the big one who will then buy the small one with a hashed voice and I left and went to another place to buy.

One cannot be profitable if he lack another source of income without bitcoin. Bitcoin can give you profit but not a sudden one and for it you will wait.
If you invest in bitcoin but have no another source of income then from where you will get money obviously you will use bitcoin for the purpose of renting, feeding and other utilities.

One can find a way of earning through bitcoin if he search for a job then minimum percentage he use for bitcoin or other coins investment. Everything can be made possible and every person can struggle to do hard work for the fulfilment of his wishes but don't forget that every success has some ways which we should accept.

Absolutely this is just a basic fact, because as an investor not having another source of income will make you to invest with fear because all your basic needs are on the investment. This is very dangerous as it will damage your psychology. Once this happened, it will make you to be impatience to hold your bitcoin and you will always miss the major opportunity.

Secondly I think discipline is one of the major tool someone that want to be successful should have. Discipline entails you getting the right information, apply risk management while investing and controlling your greed etc.  Discipline is not different from planning because it is discipline that is needed to be able to follow a plan. Many people actually plan well but lack the discipline to follow the plan. So discipline is very important.
