Stock/Forex Trader and Cryptocurrency Trader

[lixer]

I want to know what thoughts you guys have about differenty type of traders.
We all know that there are some similarities when you trade forex/stock to cryptocurrency. But I want to know the differences on it.

Does it means, when you totally well known to trade Forex/Stock, does trading cryptocurrency will also be the same?
Like if you owing in Forex/Stocks, you should also do the same with cryptocurrency?

Because I saw some trader that they started to trade forex/stocks and tried to trade cryptocurrency, but some of them are keep losing to trade in cryptocurrency.

Like you have said, the both of them are similar in so many ways, but there are differences and when traders don’t understand those differences, they are prone to lose their money from trading in that particular business. If you have been trading forex/stock before you discovered cryptocurrency, same strategy might apply, but you still have to understand the cryptocurrency market and how it works, because how it works is not the same way as how the forex/stock market works.

Due to decentralized environments, we are facing lots of advantages and inconveniences in crypto markets at a same time. If high volatility is one of your inconveniences, it may get eliminated over the time when more people will be adopting cryptocurrencies.

Probably crypto's derivative market is exact similar to forex markets except decentralization part.

I am enjoying crypto trading all 7 days in a week and any time I prefer but when some regulations will be happening, I guess these things may disappear .

I do swing trading and I know that there are many traders who have lost money trading cryptocurrencies.
Crypto trading is highly volatile and unpredictable which makes it difficult for stock traders to adjust to it and hence they lose their money.
I started trading with cryptocurrencies and then moved towards stock which made it easy for me to understand both the markets.
I did lose money in the beginning of crypto trading but I have covered all my losses and I am exploring the stock market these days.
Both of them have their differences and similarities. I think crypto market is better than stock since it runs 24x7 and doesn't restrict anybody from trading.

Volatility will really be the main thing that you will really noticed when you are a stock or forex trader and suddenly jump into crypto market.Its not really that hard to adjust but you can really tell the difference.
Im also a forex trader but when i tried crypto then you can really tell that movement isnt the same.It can swing on bigger percentage that you havent tried on a traditional market.
Also in other arrangements as well like cashing out where forex/stocks are heavily centralized which means you would need to comply some KYC and other stuffs which is
totally opposite when you are here on crypto and thats the thing i do like about.

There is not much difference from forex trading with cryptocurrency trading, therefore forex traders will usually try crypto trading.
But because crypto trading has high volatility it makes forex traders keep losing when trying to trade cryptocurrency. Indeed, that is
the most prominent difference, but if you practice more, you can certainly master the volatility in cryptocurrency. And take advantage
of volatile crypto prices to generate big profits. Another difference in forex / stocks is very much influenced by the economic situation
world, whereas crypto is not. It can be seen from the current pandemic that forex / stocks have experienced a drastic decline in the
market. Whereas cryptocurrency only went down for a while, then now the crypto price keeps going up.

I'm a stock and cryptocurrency trader and there is really huge differences, when it comes to trading of cryptocurrency; I can do it anytime because it is 24/7 which means that the market is always moving. In stocks, the time is limited because there is a schedule on it like market opening, lunch and market closing. When it comes to volatility the difference is minimal so I can say that both of them are volatile. The trading strategies that I applying in stock market is the same with the strategy that I applying in cryptocurrency market.

Can you share your experience related with profits or losses you already encountered on trading of cryptocurrency and stock/forex?
Like for example you already lost a lot with cryptocurrency compare on stocks, or vice versa.
And also, if you will be given a particular amount of money to trade, which one will you choose to trade on? On cryptocurrency or stocks?

Time is factor and it is important to consider; our local stock market opens at 9:00 am and it will close at 1:00 because there is still pandemic but the normal schedule is it really close at 3:30 pm. It is better to trade cryptocurrencies or forex if you have busy schedule because of its convenient which is it can trade 24 hours in a week. Stock market are also closed when there is holiday and if it is weekend while both forex and cryptocurrency market can trade even weekends and even if there is holiday.

In terms of gains, cryptocurrencies is much better because there are some exchanges offering future markets where they have leverages. In our local stock market, there is no leverage and there is also no short positions which means that in order to make gains is only by going long position. My biggest gain in stock market is 50%, it is called a ceiling price in stock market which means a stock can only go up within 50%. Unlike in cryptocurrencies there is no ceiling price where its price can go up as much as it can go.

When I trade local stocks, my time frame is daily and weekly so I do not use any intraday charts like minutes and hourly chart. My strategies in stock market depends on the current movement of our index. For those who do not know what is index, it is generally a market portfolio where it is represents a financial market. Our index represent the whole local market and my decisions and strategies base on it. For example if the index is consolidating then my strategies will most likely be a swing trade but if there is a momentum then I will becomea breakout trader. When it comes to losses and risk, I can handle more in stock market because I'm used to it. I also have a having hard time when it comes to using leverage and it is the reason why I experienced wipeout in my portfolio before. If you will ask me if I have more money, I plan to open account on global markets which I will mainly focus indices especially the DJIA and S&P 500 because it is the indices that is current trending.

I think that same strategy you’re using in forex trading can be applied to cryptocurrency trading as well. The reason why those people failed to succeed in cryptocurrency trading is because they felt the stock and crypto markets were the same thing, but they are not exactly the same thing, there are some ways that they are different, and traders needs to know the differences despite that it’s not much, but those little differences can cause you to lose. Apart from that, I don’t really think there is any other thing that’s going to make them lose.

The advantage of forex market is its wide establishment for decades unlike crypto markets which makes it highly impossible for manipulation unlike how crypto market is being suffered by whales. When more people will be joining crypto markets then we can expect that crypto markets will be manipulation-resistant as well.

The rules on every trading is the same, especially on Technical analysis so you can really trade at any market considering the skills that you have in trading.

At first, you need to familiarize yourself on a trading market you are with, and you can really have the same strategies that will depend on the market situation. There’s a lot of opportunities in the market, traders should took advantage of that and use their gift to earn more.

What are your thoughts?

Trading mechanism works same on every trading methods but the fundamental gets changes to each other, when it comes to trading forrex the values are going to be somewhat very stable so you can make less profits by trading them with huge amount and while you trading stocks the thing is similar but the volatility is bit higher than forex.Whereas in cryptos the volatility is a lot huge and highly unpredictable so the day trading becomes like a gambling action even the one who trade cryptos for years are uncertain about their actions.

I'm a stock trader that came to crypto trading. They are to large extent same. Crypto trading has much more freedom to traders.
The only good thing about trading stocks is you could have a look at the quarterly reports from the companies and plan your strategy accordingly. You'd have a slight idea where the price would be heading as everyone else. The chances of stock price crashing are very low. With low I means nearly impossible if you are giving some time to research.
While the crypto market is much more unpredictable as they (mostly) don't provide bonuses and dividend and neither publish their performance records.

I do trade both of them simultaneously and I think there is no different in strategy, unless I have to go to different site to see some fundamental factor but technically they are not different. I use the same startegy like support and demand, trend line, fibbonacci and another tool even I use the same platform to make an analyst in trading view.

Even, I learn about all technical analyst just in some forex youtube channel because they give me a learning from the beginner. But I never try to trade in stock, I still comfortable to trade forex and crypto currency maybe later I will try it. You may need to try first, most of forex's broker give you a demo account so as you don't need to deposit first to try.

[babygun]

I also trade both, but for me there is a big difference.
Crypto is mcuh more volatile and less for long term (except bitcoin). Most of the cryptos you buy, you think they will boom and go x5 or more. That is (almost) never the case for stocks. For stocks, I think more long term and try to make picks to have a diversied portfolio.
