Skill to analyze chart, or maybe price of each bitcoin and altcoin. Good mental, because not only skill that we must have, but strong heart so we are not easily affected by price movement that is really fast. I think most important is that 2 thing, because once you gert panic, you will careless to make any decision which can make you lose in trading.

You need to make profits that is the point of being trader for that you may have to spend time to analyse the real world and plan your strategies based on this but nothing is 100% accurate when it comes to crypto so nothing will be enough and even anything will be enough.

If don't have technical analysis skill but still you know that you can make profits by selling it high price and we have to wait until that no matter of what still he is a trader.

In my opinion, all that a trader needs is an understanding of where the market trend will move.
To form this understanding, a trader needs experience and the realization that the cryptocurrency market is constantly being manipulated.
Due to the high volatility of the crypto speculation market, it is a favorite occupation of large players, which means that even if you read the market trend well, you can make a mistake, because often not everything depends on the natural processes taking place on the market. It is difficult, but it needs to be learned.

Enough with such crap ideas mate. Basics will get you through and let the the experience such as losses be a thing for you to improve. You won't get any farther by just asking with loads of ideas. Try to step up with yourself, and you'll find what you are looking and what are your short comings. And try to improve those. Do what you know, change what you need to, and improve what should need, and add what you don't have.

make trend as our friens was not easy.many traders could not survive and failed in their trades mostly they make mistake identifying trend.trend was very crucial for each traders .by learning and practice we will slowly understand which trend is running now.daily high volatility also be the reason ,why we make mistake when set the trend.there are two kind of trend that we have to learnt,and it very helpfull when we could differentiate. First was major trend ,it could identify in daily time frame and minor trend that usually in daily tf such as 1h 4h .when we could identify major and minor i am sure we will survive.

You have the basic information that you need already, what you need to do next is to choose the trusted site where you want to get the latest news and use the platforms/tools that you can easily use so you can trade without any problems.

You can start by small trading so don't have to worry if something will happen and you need to adjust in order to gain a proper profit in the next trade. Once you are already comfortable then you can maximize your trading volume.

For a start, yes that would be enough.
The most important thing is knowledge to determine where prices will be in accordance with a comprehensive understanding of market behavior.
The last thing; the lone wolf may not get better results compared to the wolf pack.

These are the basics that we need in trading but we shouldn't just use, it's important that we'll choose especially when it comes to tools and platform. Knowledge and understanding of the basics of trading is the best weapon that you could have before entering trading. You should know how to deal with the market as well as your emotions.

Traders need a lot to be successful in trading. One of them is patience that is really difficult to resist especially when you are in a bearish situation. And this is the only thing to overcome, so you can stay calm in the turmoil of the market and think carefully about the right steps to take.

Alot of what ? You need to be specific because alot word is too general  but when you say patience ( alot of it )  that is one recipe to be a good trader  because not all times there is an happy hour or happy times  but sometimes we also need to take a rest and be patient while the market is still sleeping or recovering.   There are still people that can't become patient especially when their coins are in a critical state and they are likely going to fail

[danherbias07]

Identify what coin you are going to trade first.
List them, look at its history, the price dumps and pumps from the recent time.
How far could it go.
Is the coin still being advertised in different websites or social media?
That is likely how you will think to every coin you will add to your list.

This depends on your trading style, you probably need tools if you want really high frequency trading but i wouldn't do that with cryptos.
I've seen succesful traders using only one laptop and some slow frequency swing traders using only their phone.
What you really need is information and do some serious learning on ta, and if you trade fundamentals and real world event based news fomos. You need to learn about the project and be step ahead.

But in short, tradingview is enough for ta. Just keep it simple, too many indicators is just making decision executing slower.

The most important thing a trader needs is a lot of capital, because most traders aim for a 1% daily return, that means that they need at least $10,000 to make $100 a day. However, very few traders can get this kind of returns. also, As a trader, it is more important to know that you will always follow your rules than it is to make money because whatever money you make, you will inevitably lose back to the market if you can't follow your rules, and leave your discipline.

At the same time you need to develop your thinking which typically comes from live trading experience. the market is your teacher, and As you trade over time you will learn what works and what doesn't. you need to learn basic technical analysis, chart reading, fundamental analysis, and risk management, and the most important skill is to fully understand how the way you think affects what you do which affects how much you make.

read more , learn more and do more.

even if you have 100 million usd to trade and targeting as low as 0,1% daily , you will get busted sooner or later, why? because the bigger money you have in your wallet to trade , the bigger pressure you will get everytime you are going to make a decision to buy or sell.
it is better to start with reasonable amount , get lost try again and repeat until you learn someting from it and changed you into a better trader.
that is why i encourage every trader to read more, you will get an advice from experts by reading books.
learn more, you will gain experience when you learn from the mistakes you have done in trading.
do more, you will learn a lot of new things everytime you have done something in trading.

pretty simple if you do all of those in disciplined.

Knowledge and experience. That includes losing a lot of trades in the process. There's no assurance in trading so a trader should be able to manage timing and his capital. Proper expectations as well that not everything will turn out the way you expected. And lots of patience. The market can push you to your emotional limits. It's a matter of always being prepared. Technical skills will come in time.

I agree  this two is important, knowledge to know what to do  and experience to not commit the same mistake in the past and when the same problem occurs, you know how to tackle it. I may add the confidence too,because if you lack confidence you get rattled and nervous when something is not right with your trade. Emotions and nervousness follow, and you mess your trade.Knowledge and experience helps build  confidence.The more experience you have, the more confident with your trade.

The most important thing a trader needs is to to know what he is doing and why he is doing it, many times I find that traders just buy a coin with the expectation that it will go up in price, but if you ask them how much money they expect to get out of that trade or how many losses they can accept before they close their position they do not really know what to answer you, those kind of traders quickly lose their money and then claim this market is manipulated when they are the ones that did not knew what they were doing.

But in short, tradingview is enough for ta. Just keep it simple, too many indicators is just making decision executing slower.

I can agree with that. I quite often see crypto TA influencers on social media clutter their charts with lines, moving averages, volume profiles, and so on.... how can one not get confused by so many indicators?

I use a few indicators that work for me and keep my chart clean to not lose sight of the actual sentiment and trend within the market.... the more you clutter your charts with lines and indicators the more insecure you are as trader.
