 outside this indicator there are others  could help to enhance my trading such as  Bollinger Bands,stochastic ,Ichimoku Kinko Hyo etc .

2 Fundamental Analysis:these are factors that might influence the price movement of any Crypto Asset such factors are frequent announcement and update of the Crypto Asset in social media , political influence  ,economical influence.this is  the first analysis l do before trading to find out from news channel such as Coincheck, CNN, Cointelegraph about negative and positive news with respect to any Crypto Asset.This help me to no when coin is about to be pump or dump.

Well, so far I agree with you. Knowledge, money combine with practice will makes perfect. In many cases most people start trading with wrong mindset , they believe trading is simple but not. Second thing is no practice, direct into crypto market with real money will make them loss. Last one, they still believe bot and people opinion. That's my experience about trading, keep learning market moving and trust no one.

Yes, we cannot lie that greed and fear are attitudes possessed by some traders and often make traders panic and trapped in their trades which results in cutting losses and even losing assets, sadly.

[hummer113]

Not so simple for me, sometimes it is possible to increase the volume of the portfolio, but often I'm wrong. Need more experience.

[Reid]

Wow that was long. I thought I will just be reading a few sentences but yet ended up reading it all.

Fear and Greed. This two are the main keys just like you said. You are winning then you want more.
Then, a sudden fall happen. Fesr came in and panic happens. It all goes back to that moment if you cannot control those emotions.

[Fenderr]

This is what I've noticed too and have been advised by someone I respect in the space. The days of hodling for profits might just be over and  the only sure way to survive in the crypto space at the moment is by active trading. This could be;

1. Scalping
2. Day Trading
3. Swing Trading
4. Position Trading

In all in all, greed and fear must be tames in order to be successful in trading just as you've pointed out.

[Hanebel]

The possibility of gaining profits by trading high-volume coins is high. But sometimes, even those not-so-high volume coins can still give good profits. Although it's much riskier and not advisable, I put some of my fund in this coin. So far, I can say it's not time yet to exit.

[Andromada]

Trading gives you the opportunity to earn on any market. I mean both bullish and bearish. But to trade in plus, you need to learn a lot

No matter the trading strategy you intend to use , you must learnt risk management and emotions management .

Thanks for sharing this valuable information, as a newbie in trading I keep myself reading any sources that would enhance my knowledge and skills specially when applying the best techniques and strategies in trading cryptocurrency, your method is superb, and id like to use some of this methods. As a newbie, it is my goal to earn more, and limit myself from emotions, because it drives me a momentum of trading more, without thinking the real purpose, and it results to a loss.

I am thankful enough that I read your statement, which can help me a lot in determining which method should need to be applied. I also have long term portfolio and all of those coins are performing well and have a future,  so my goal this time is to generate more and in efficient method.

Have a great day

Trading is always profitable if you know the drill even when it is a bear market. Day trading is not for everybody so if anyone intend to do this thing then you should focus on how to deal with the risk.

[castiloros]

I think fundamental analysis will be the main deciding factor that will determine the outcome of the trade on technical analysis. When can learn from the various fundamental aspects that exist then just stay play and hone techniques to be able to make more of this could produce. but when this fundamental cannot yet fully mastered then just like entering into the trade without having a base and also a clear source.

as people travel but don't have a clear purpose. Maybe that will happen if the trade without mastering fundamental analysis. 
as powerful as any analysis technique that had been owned will be able to do much when fundamental analysis which belonged to weak. at least this should be balanced in order to be better in trade.

In bear market it is very hard to earn profit from trading. Only trading experts can do it. I think the best choice for us in bear market is only keep USD or hold the coins we have to secure our funds.

The possibility of gaining profits by trading high-volume coins is high. But sometimes, even those not-so-high volume coins can still give good profits. Although it's much riskier and not advisable, I put some of my fund in this coin. So far, I can say it's not time yet to exit.

Yes everyone are here only to make good profit but the prediction of the market is entirely different. No one can say what will happen in upcoming days. Definitely it is better to invest in bearish market because you will get double your money oneday for sure. All you need is to stay calm and wait for bullish run.

[z21770179]

I think that is a good way but it is not stable if the trader is a newcomer and does not have much knowledge of graph analysis or information search.

[ballerin and giroud]

I think that is a good way but it is not stable if the trader is a newcomer and does not have much knowledge of graph analysis or information search.

That's true, being a bitcoin or cryptocurtency trader is different from being a conventional trader. Becoming a crypto currency trader urgently require a broad understanding of price movements, technical analysts or fundamental must be truly understood by someone. And maybe, a newbie doesn't know about this yet.

So basically you saying apply all the possible strategy to come up with the good trades. Nice write up but things wont be same all the time in the trading market. Every time the crypto situation will be different and thus you have to be very keen at your trading strategy.

The only way to increase your portfolio is to do the compounding of your investment. This can be done on the basis of profits that you earn. You must be wiling to put those profits back again in the crypto trading and keep repeating this process until you get huge bag of it.  

[Froy]

Yes, but trade does not work now, investing in ICO also brings only disappointment. There remains a short-term, risky trade that does not suit ordinary investors, which requires a lot of time and effort.

[Ararbermas]

Yes but we must focus on a coin that has a potential as well especially day trading to ensure there's a profits on it.  Which is in my opinion probably trading with 2  different altcoin is the best choice to increase our portfolio even the market is red.
