Things that are important to know in Trading

[Ihedioral]

1. Fair Value GAp(FVG)  If the price moves aggressively,  it leaves an imbalance between candles. Price often come back to fill that gap before continuing.

2. Liquidity Sweep  Price takes stops above highs or below lows just to reverse after. Trading grabs liquidity before the real move.

3. Market Structure  Uptrend means higher highs,  and higher lows,  Downtrend means lower highs, lower lows. Structure tells you the direction.

4. Break of Structure(BOS)  In an uptrend after a pullback,  when price breaks the previous high,  that's a break of structure.  It confirms continuation.

5. Order Block(OB)  The last opposing candle before strong impulsive move.  That's where institutions entered and that where price often returns.

Yeah, indicators can fail the trader and are likely not to give larger profit than the losses a trader that dwell on them for execution of his trade would when they fail, because indicators aren't definite to repeat behaviour exactly. There are times those candles could form and when the trader may be expecting a reversal which may have prompted him to take a position, but may rather experience a fake out. I have many times experience this scenario with the chart patterns like head and shoulders, double top and bottom top patterns I trade with even as an adopted strategy of mine.

I've gone through those images; they are candlestick patterns/ price action, which makes it context foundational. Still, there are more basics to learn to avoid complications, especially by newbies, and there are more than those iterated above available, to say the least. This means trading knowledge is continuous.

Above all, anyone who knows the fundamentals like the price action might have decoded the simplest way of making money unnoticed.

In activities like trading, you wouldn't really know what would happen. There's no certainty in what could happen. Whether you see higher highs or lower lows, there will still be uncertainty, and the best way to avoid making wrong decisions is to use stop-loss orders and continue managing your risk.

Knowing your strategy and which market it would be effective in is key. You would know if you have done some backtesting to validate your strategy. I think it's best to do that as well.

Studying candlesticks and their formations is one of the things I must learn because it is very useful and helps me analyze the market, especially in the short term. By knowing and understanding candlestick confirmation, I can be a little more certain about where the price will move and in most of my experiments I am more often successful, meaning it does help increase my profits, but one thing I will say is that studying candlesticks is very difficult, sometimes what we see in the market does not always match the guidebook.

It is also very important that you gain some knowledge in risk management after you learn all these strategies that you can benefit from because if you do not learn how to manage your risk, you will only be learning strategies that will help you loose your money faster.

For anyone new to trading, I think risk management should be something they need to learn first because a new trader who ca master risk management will be able to avoid blowing their account.

Yes, you are right, some mostly focus on the technical and fundamental parts of trading, which isn't bad. But the financial part of trading is something worth learning. You could be guru in analysing trade but lack of financial management can turn your efforts to worthless.

Candlesticks are one of the basis of the market and not having a clue about it is simply trading with blind eyes and ignorance, this is the time to step up and understand why you're here in the market and not just about accumulating profits. Candlesticks exploring will definitely make one go far in the market and widen the lifespan of our trading positions.

Studying candlesticks is not difficult except you want it to become challenging to comprehend. Put in at the back of your mind that you want and you're eager to learn about candlesticks and knowing every routing means to follow because learning never stops. Candlesticks have to do more with technical analysis and this is how one can simply know what he's doing in the market.

I am into a higher time frame so lets say swing trades for me basically its easy to check the FVG with the higher time frame because you can check if there is a possible position again, regards with the liquidity sweep is you can combine that in the FVG if ever the price makes a SR flip area price gets sideways you can make an extra earning BoS and CHoC is one of the most common reversal pattern so all you need is to add a confirmation with the technical analysis such as MACD or RSI. I guess you can add more such as candle patterns too OP.

i think the first thing is the fact that you are noticing the differences between the guidebook and real market conditions and that’s actually a good sign that one is learning. What many of us do ignore is that markets are driven by human behaviors and these human behaviors are not a respecter of textbooks so the reality is that a candlestick pattern can only tells a story about what buyers and sellers were doing during a specific period of time do not really gives you a certainty on the market condition or how the market will prosper in your favour, however by the time you combine your candlesticks knowledge together with other knowledge such as the resistance level of the market, the volume and structure of the market, your candlestick knowledge becomes even more appreciated and more useful.

Most people are into trading today with the idea that they will be carry along by other people, they believed that other people who are more experience in the market will really be of help to them. Thus, they totally ignore the importance of making findings by themselves to confirmed if they on the safer side or not, the reason why research is necessary is because no one is perfect in this market, especially as one can't predict the market and its likely that their analysis might not always be correct. That is why combining experience and understanding can also produce good profits.

What you listed is part of what you need as a trader to help you trade profitably. However, from an individual point of experience and knowledge, these are not key things, because you can know all these without management of risk, behavioral control, or management of your psychology, and a tested system that works, and you still end up losing. Trading is way beyond what you see in the chart because trading is reactive and not predictive.

Risk management is one of the important aspects of trading, to avoid excessive loss, and profit maximization. Uncontrollable interest in profit maximization can lead to disappointment, discouraged and severe losses. Before putting your money in trading, you must be well prepared physically, mentally, socially, emotionally, and psychologically, and most importantly developing the mindset to bear every positivity and every negativity. These is one of the strong things that every trader must consider before even thinking of trading.

Yes, trading a reliable coins is very important to traders, this is one of the means it can be known that they want to be patient and not  greedy traders. But it is also good to mention that they should use low leverage. Someone can trade a very good coin, but not being patient with the leverage the person is using.

Good Coins like Bitcoin is still high in volatility and that can still make the trader to trade quickly and more often. Maybe we can only say that they are greedy on this regard if they still add leverage on top. If they have the urge to try or use leverage, then they should also go for lesser volatile coins and then they also need to apply the lowest setting for it.

You will see some traders that are trading good coins, but they are using as high as 50x leverage which is the cause of their trading funds liquidation.

A good coin should not deceive us thinking they have now lesser risks when trading, especially with trades that leverage is involve. Them choosing 50x is what proves their confidence. It is not just simple but too much too. That is only true if what we are talking about is long-term investing.
