Is there such thing as a “safe strategy”?

[Beparanf]

So my question is: Is there such thing like low risks strategies? If yes, what could be an example of that?

Of course, there are strategies that are low risk but with low returns as well. Suppose

• Buy gradually in each support area to prevent big losses when a correction occurs.

Scalping on support area is the best strategy for people who wants to have a low risk strategy. You can still limit the risk by just buying on strong support only but it will surely takes a long time hit strong support but the gain and risk is always worth the wait.

From the little experience am having with trading I don't think there is anything like safe trading when it comes to trading definitely you have to lose money but the amount you have to be losing must be minimal that's why you have to learn about risk management you have to make your lose you have to look for a way to reduce your risk but I don't think there is anything like safe trading. And again if you are trading you have to learn and know how to hold a coin that's the only way which you can reduce your lose and make alort of money but if you can't hold a coin definitely you will always lose money in Cryptocurrency. For example you can buy and hold bitcoin currently because the price is still very low so you can buy and hold and you will never regret.

While you were explaining, you made mention of new ieo project, this new listed project often got spike in the first place after listing, if you haven't gone professional in trading you can loose all your money within some weeks, a simple corrections should happen on the trades before making an entry, avoiding entry at the time of listing is a low risk strategy

Furthermore, trading ones or two is not certain that your trades would be low risk one, the simple strategy that would works better is holding for a long term, that's the lowest risk strategy you can ever made at this period. Try it and have good trading experience.

I would call a safe strategy buying some bitcoin, every time its price makes a thousand usd drop. It is obvious that the price will return to where it was, it is just a matter of time. (Or whales made us used to it).
Why exactly 1000? Because Bitcoin is very volatile and its price goes up and down for hundred bucks every 15min. And drop in price for 1000 and future recovery will make every any investment in Bitcoin be tangible.

Hi there!

I’m quite new into trading of any sort. I started by shorting BTC when price was trending down. I made some profits and then I lost it all... several times.

Besides potential gains, I love all the knowledge on markets and economics I’m getting by experimenting.

I’m not looking to be a full time trader. I just want to do one or two trades per week focusing on modest gains but low risk.

For example: I though that trading on the first minutes of an IEO was a safe option. But after reviewing how previous Launchpad projects went on the firsts minutes I does not looks like a low risk strategy at all.

So my question is: Is there such thing like low risks strategies? If yes, what could be an example of that?

Thank you!

Risk only 1% of your capital! That's the lowest and safest strategy you can apply especially on trading in markets such as Margin and Futures. You can use Cross mode with your 1% and even make the leverage to the highest point possible. BUT, always set your own Take Profit price as well as a certain Stop Loss for a price that you can afford to lose. If you would spot trade or swing trade, you can use up to 50% of your capital yet set stop losses near your entry point.

the only way to reduce risks in trading is to sync with a large participant. enter very close to his positions so that volatility does not take your stops

Large participant? do you mean to look out for those traders that have been trading big? it's hard to know and determine if that's the strategy you're saying.
Orders on exchanges are changing from time to time and even if there will huge volumes that you'll see on the buying orders side, you'll never know if that guy is just playing around not unless you've got a lot of time to check it and wait until it fills. But, correct me if I'm wrong with my understanding on what you've explained.

no, I do not mean large orders in the order book. although they can be used for entry accuracy. I mean tools like volume profile and statistics

There are many experts in this forum are always suggesting about buying at dips; and in my opinion also that must be the very safest strategy when we are looking for less risk and maximum profits.

I am sure already many people are following that safe strategy and enjoying big profits. I believe into this community and their suggestions and due to this reason I am profitable today with my initial capital which was small when I was starting here.

Well safe strategy is a sound of a name. But the real word is expertism or experience. Because of his expertism user can generate profit by easily because he know when we should do something? How we should? Because he understand the candle and this is his expertism which he gain from his experienced. Though he can generate profit easily and the other users call it safe strategy because other user saw that he makes profit very easy then users follow his strategy and call this safe strategy. But i don't think there is truely have. Its my opinion others could be different.

There is nothing that can ever be guaranteed in crypto trading. If you look at trends then the safest strategy would be to buy bitcoin or some top altcoins and wait for the price to go up. Buying when the price of a coin is at an all time high is not the wises move because we could have a market crash and you will have to wait a few years to make a profit. It's better to do dollar cost averaging than buying all at once and hoping that the price remains bullish.

Thanks, I thought of your description of participant in that way.

Buying the dip is the strategy that we're always saying but not all of the people that have read it follow. And sometimes we're blamed for that because when someone buys the dip, it keeps dipping.
But for those who have followed it, knows the market and very well understands it. Just like in Doge, I thought that $0.05 was already the peak of it and it will go into a dip first before moving up but no way, it's already $0.18 now.

Trading has a huge difference when we are just holding. However, both of them are at risk but trading is riskier. That is why this is not for everyone because not all of us can afford to do it. And aside from that, trading is not just all about buying now and sell later because technically it requires a deep understanding of the market situation more than that of what we know about holding.

Always the safe strategy could be buying at low and then selling at high; but many people are simply ignoring this because this sounds like very basic and normal as per our regular life incident. But, it is all about holding because buying at cheaper be possible when you will be ready for continuous watching to spot out the possible low price level and this will be true for catching possible ATH as well. So, then we are sticking with basics of trading then that will definitely lead to safe trading.

No need to become too much technical.

Just continue doing trading to become familiar and be used to it. Strategies will be created along the way depends on the situation you are in. You can't just follow other strategies as we have different ways of executing them.

Building experience is the key.

Safety is the most concern to everyone but unfortunately, trading won't guarantee you that. Coz if think about trading, you are also aware of the what we possibly face later or sooner. Risk is a part of this and no matter how careful we are, we can't escape from losses but somehow, there is a way to minimize it depending on our strategy and risk management control.
if we have knowledge in trading, that is a big help but there is no way we to say about "safety assurance".

Safety does mean that you wont be experiencing any losing trades which we know that it is impossible for that to happen. It doesn't exist for sure because dealing with market volatility is already the
factor that would surely mess up your analysis no matter how good it is.

Even professionals or veterans into this market is really still having some hardship on making out profits.

Risk is there but you can really less out the risk if you do know on what you are doing.It is just needing some experience and proper analysis and good emotion handling
for you to sustain this market.

Be a responsible trader where you do your own analysis even if you don’t trade everyday, this can lessen the risk and your strategies might give your more reward this is mu safe strategy, I only buy if its cheap and sold if its expensive already. Work with the good project as well, to ensure good profit and returns.

[hulla]

To be sincere, there's no safe strategy anywhere because every investment strategy in cryptocurrency have its own risk involving this is the reason why new investors are advised to learn more about but it good to have the required knowledge and awareness in making a profitable investment decision that can be used to prevent lost.

Best strategy ever, yeah. Now, being able to determine what's "low" and what's "high" is entirely different story LOL
