Can you buy crypto, and sell it 5 minutes or so later?
Is there a problem with the time it takes to show in your wallet after buying?

Thanks

You can day trade on the exchanges if you have the time and are quick enough to buy in the dips. it is not easy to analyse the charts and predict what will happen next, it involves a bit of luck and skill and research.

Yes, you can day trade crypto. There are many traders doing it for a living. The buy and sell in crypto exchanges are instant and the funds will be credited to your account wallet instantly as well.

Of course you can. As mentioned, a lot of people make a living out of it; but you can also get caught out, so be careful.

A good thing to keep your eye on when trawling the exchanges/CMC are arbitrage opportunities. I made a bit last week taking advantage of particular coins doing this in my spare time.

Good luck out there Smiley

Of course you can daytrade on any exchange. Basically the only difference from Forex is that you can not open a short position. Thus, in principle, you can only earn by buying a coin and selling it when the price is higher. At least I don't know of any option which would allow you to earn when the coin's price is falling.

on exchange you can buy or sell immediately, some sites has more users so sometime you need to refresh page after your buy

The only one big difference is that crypto markets are more volatile. But it doesn't mean you can't trade crypto as well as forex.
P.S. If you lose money on Forex you most likely will lose money on crypto too. Be careful!

Sometimes you buy, and price goes all the way down...

Sometimes you sell, and price goes to the moon...

But yes, you can buy and sell like forex

Yes you can but it is not recommended. Beacuse you have to pump more money if the purchased crypto price getting down to avoid closing the account(If you leverage). Also note that buy and sell price difference too high in those exchanges.

Yes you can do it but like with forex you also need large amount of founds to obtain any kind of profit,imo hour trade is much better as there are certain hours when price goes down 90% of time and you can use it to short positions.Day trade is even better especialy when there is some announcement and you can ride the waves untill it comes out

You need to backtest your trading strategy. There is no way to get profit in long-term if you apply some particular time like 5 min or so to trade. At least you need to write down your trading plan and open several demo trading accounts. Then trade many variations of your trading strategy in order to find out the more robust one (if you can't backtest it automatically).

Yes you can do that, when you are trading at exchanges what you trader there will be instantly credited to your account,but i dont think that you will gain profit from reselling it after 5 mins.
You should not do this plan when trading it wont benefit you at all and you may take a large loss from doing this kind of strategy.

Is there a problem with the time it takes to show in your wallet after buying?

No there is no time delay when buying or trading at exchanges, but there will be some delays when the wallet of an exchange like yobit is on maintenance.

IMO before you start with day trading.

1. Follow some coins day by day.
2. Check the coins on the end of each the day, and check if you have earned of lost money (If you bought the coins for real).
3. Spread your money over multiple coins.

True that. You gotta be hell lucky and an ace on the market to get income so fast. Also as I heard the only one who is making profit on Forex is Forex owners so I hope our situation with cryptocurrency is differ from that.   Wink

There are always ways to day trade in crypto, if you are using well known western exchanges which don’t use margin, potential for loses is smaller, but gains can be in multiplical.
