What was your experience trading cryptocurrency?

[Bright_dhykseen]

Been trading for quite a while now and it took me time to get to where i am today coming from a noob in trading. Trading cryptocurrencies was one hell of an experience for me .

The first cryptocurrency i traded back in late 2018 was bitcoin and i lost a whole lot of money trading it. I guess i didn't learn enough about the crypto market and the volatility involved before delving into it  .

Ever since then, i picked another instrument of choice. I went into the FOREX trading. I plan on coming back into trading cryptocurencies but for now i'm still learning about the crypto market.  

It was a painful experience though  

What was your experience ?

I remember when I started to trade cryprotocurrency which most of the wrong doing or bad practice in trading was I done, result was getting rekt.
But those bad practice makes me become better trade, I continue to learn after those experience and become better trade compare to before.

Like like nearly everyone in this space, I've got my portfolio burnt several time in the course of both investing and trading and aside that, the few tokens i earned from bounty hunting turned to shit due to the orientation of hodling i had while starting trading back then. It wasn't really a good experience to be honest

Trading a leveraged BTC is what I'm still learning about, because it can drive you holy nuts and even crack them a lot earlier when you see your entire capital reaching to 0 just because either you used cross leverage or just leveraged your entire capital into isolation but the leverage set by you is above 50x. It looks too good to be true when we just see our potential profits while setting our profit limit but it just eats our entire principal amount itself if the trade immediately goes into the wrong direction. I've learnt that patience is the key, as well as it's true that better late than never. So, it's better to earn small chunks of BTC rather than going for a straight bigshot move and lose everything.

I started trading bitcoin way back 2018 and ethereum at the same time on that year. Just like what beginners felt, everytime price drops I panicked. Which is kinda stressful because of that regrets I felt when I didn't sell those of my coins before the dump.
 
 There are times that I sold my btc at lost because I m thinking it will go down and down. And experienced to be left hanged.But things change now and I learned so much in trading. Controlled emotions, chilling, determination and goal are one of the realizations and learnings I finally did.

Trading mistakes are exactly what yields growth int trading. Is there even a way you wouldnt get to lose in trading?
Losses in trading can be compared to the cost of running a business.
more knowledge comes alongside experience.

Agree! For sure those successful traders now are also experience such a huge loss for sure but they still remain and continue to learn. They also lost a more than our losses.
For me, trading is how you will gonna remain or how long you will be trading, you can't become a millionaire in just one night or a week.

I remembered my view on HODLING back then was to hodl to the moon.
I was looking for the next bitcoin  

The huge losses from crypto hodling was what took me into trading. I really needed to know what and why price moved the way it did.  
I was Hodling based on hope!

The BTC market is very volatile. One needs to thread carefully.
I once traded BTC using a brokage platform and the spread there was so crazy, it was so hard even getting little profit.

What platform were you trading on? Bitmex?

[sandra_x]

It use to be an easy way to make money day trading in the last major bull run, I made alot with little knowledge because everything had an upward trend. now you have to be really good at it to scalp some profits, even at that, the  best TAs can cause you losses.

I know that feeling
We all thought "When Lambo?"  

One needs to master the art of Technical Analysis before hopping into trading at all.
Also, Trading psychology is also one big aspect to take into consideration.

I'm happy you finally learnt!

If only i knew BTC would have gotten as high as 19k, would have kept on placing buy orders till margin call!  

A lot of traders made a whole lot of money back in 2017/2018

It's great that you have discovered trading as a possible instrument for making money. It's what everybody wants to learn and make profits from. It's not impossible to learn it it's just that the emotions and consistency of your trading techniques should be balanced. The risk management acts as your protection against the possible loss of the whole capital and much more. It's not an overnight thing. I think we have all been there where we experienced a painful loss.

What I think traders could do is take advantage of the 24/7 market that we have and utilize it to trade continuously like using a bot like Gunbot.

[Bright_dhykseen]

Yeah, I agree many traders made a lot money by end of 2017 till early Jan 2018, but I was still a newbie that time and hodl my BTC thinking it will keep going further than 19K (which is a costly mistake and should have sold them immediately). Since then, I never hodl just learning from the sidelines and observe the trading trend.

Today, I no longer hodl, just scalp when the opportunity arised.  Still learning though from several telegram channels.

Lol i'm sure 80% of investors held onto their BTC investment as at that time.
The hype was all over the place.

Some even bought at 19k

If only we could all trade like robots and get rid of emotions  

[crwth]

That's what a cryptocurrency trading bot should do for you. You input what kind of strategy and what indicator you are going to use than the bot executes it. I think it's pretty straight forward what bots could do, it's the configuration is what would differ with every bot in the cryptocurrency market. If you are interested, you could pm me.

I trade price action. The only indicator i use is M.A's. The confluence for every trade vary; it is not just a specific rule the bot has to follow.
I dont think a bot can do that.

I assume you have skills in forex trading, so I guess that you will not have a problem to learn about crypto trading because I think the lesson of crypto trading is not too complicated than the forex trading. I guess the lesson is not difficult, and if you can search for more lesson, I think you will understand how to make crypto trade, and with the practice with some money, I think you can have a chance to make a profit. Don't force yourself to trade if the market is hard to analyze because that can make you get the loss with making a wrong analysis.

And those who have bought BTC @$19k have exited as early mid 2018 I supposed when the price really goes on a downward spiral, so they got burned. And I think your timing will be good if you are going to make a comeback. We still have a lot of legroom here, we're not yet in a bull run and chances are in the next two years the price of BTC will go up again.

You just have to be very focused, and I'm sure with your forex trading experience, you can simply transition to the crypto market fairly easy.

I love this!
It is just as simple as that.

Just focus on what you can control!

i am currently stepping back into cryptocurrency.
The knowledge gained from trading FOREX has really helped me a lot!

I'm just studying the crypto market for now and backtesting my strategy.

What was your experience ?

So you head forward to Forex yet you cant deal the crypto market? If I were to say that the whole concept is just really the same neither you are here on crypto world or in forex one because they do both involved buy and sell- they only differ on the volatility and regulation aspect but making money would really be hard.

Of course, none of us do start from being pro which we do start from being noobs.Thing here is that you do know on how to accept losses and learn from it and who do say that you can able to learn up everything? Life does give out learning on daily basis and so as with trading itself where you do continue to learn even you do think up to yourself that you already learned enough but that's not always the case.

[LbtalkL]

The majority of us suffer a loss when entering crypto trading, Because we are still a newbie in trading we don't know everything yet, until now even I have several years of experience in crypto I still consider myself a newbie. There is no wrong or right prediction in trading, I guess it is really unpredictable sometimes, Green and Red markets happen we can't avoid it, But most of the traders that have knowledge about charts, indicators and stuff minimize those risk of losing If they are lucky they can maximize the market into their favor.

What was your experience ?

I first started trading in the crypto money markets in early 2015. At that time, the market was very sluggish and inactive, and making money was not so easy. Moreover, since there were not many investors, it was very easy for large investors to control the price. At that time, I would try to make money by buying and selling without any experience or technical or basic analysis knowledge. Of course, as I earned money, I lost a lot of money, but at that time I had the opportunity to gain more experience than the money I had earned. The events that have hurt me the most since the first day but have had a good experience for me are as follows;
- Never choose a single investment tool with all your capital.
- Never make a one-time purchase with all your money.
- Create a basket absolutely.
- Making transactions with debt money.
- Take care to use stop loss.
- Make sure technical analysis.
- Research the project before investing or buying.
- Using high leverage.

Even though there are many more that have come to my mind for now, I have had a lot of experience in crypto money markets since 2015.
