Topic: Basis TA must learn for newbies (Read 403 times)
I think that is great, like what do other people says “life is a continuous process” : learning new things will help the newbies to obtained new discoveries and adventures that can help them in their journey.
Knowledge about technical analysis in trading is very helpfull to decide best entry and exit point from the market, but in trading we need not only knowledge about TA, but also management of money and risk and also keep patient wait for best entry. So combination of knowledge about TA + risk management + psycology of trading is should be to learn to become expert trader who possible to earn profit in consistently.
honestly I think that a newb should focus a lot more on pure price action than elliot waves, there's just too many ways to interpret them in order to make it a reliable tactic for trading
trend lines
Support and Resistance
Fibonacci and Eliot waves is somehow an advance lesson for you to add up if you are really willing to learn on it.
I fully agree. In fact, I think the most important thing is to be able to identify resistances and supports or supply and demand levels. If a newbie can master identifying those, it is enough already for good success. IMO, other stuff would all be used as a catalyst to confirm or reject a hypothesis of how price will react to the support/resistance it's approaching.
Someone is based on classical prediction - Elliot waves, someone on the mathematical model - nonlinear fractal analysis, but there are those who trade on the indicators. For example I like use indicators and learn techniques of William Gann, Bradley Cowan to calculate trend reversals.
Thanks for the references. I like coral trend indicator but it is really slow. We can't understand when it will drop.. So if you suggest something better, I will take a look. Thanks! 
Actually all basics information or information should be learn by the newbies,
because in order to obtained a great career for them in this field them should be guided so there are in the right path.

All the people that just do not want ot learn TA, are the first ones who are gonna lose all their money because of this, it is more than a MUST if you are a new trader
I disagree it's a must and I also disagree that it guarantees success but it really helps people to have a better chance of succeeding with their trades. For the little time and effort it takes to learn it's really worthwhile doing.
These are the basics as far as TA is concerned in trading in fact resistance, support and trend lines has been very helpful plus Candlestick patterns formed at those zones e.g hammers, bullish or bearish engulfing bars and pin bars, these are very profitable candles which can aid perfect trading system, and avoiding all those colourful indicators that lags with the price.
For my reference, all indicators presented are valid on liquid trading which is in crypto consist of Bitcoin and Ethereum. For other crypto, I feel the technical analysis should be modified accordingly since the liquidity. The indicators are based on statistic, so if the data is not too many means the liquidity is low then just use the modified TA such as volume in sell wall or buy wall.

but I'm sure all markets can not be predicted and can not be manipulated by some parties, because Bitcoin is impartial to anyone and in the property of each individual
so, it can be said that if Bitcoin will rise when there News and Bitcoin will go down when there FUD.

All these technical analysis are good for beginners but I recommend learning from fundamentals rather and adding it to the analysis derived from technical indicators. With this approach, a newbie can see the market in full and make a good trading decision.

Stay away from Elliot seriously, stick to support and resistance when you start TA.
Usually I don't listen advices without explanation. So I don't stay away from Elliot indeed, I will learn them and I will decide to stay away or not. 
Just a bit of reminder that it's not a mandatory thing to learn especially for newbies. What they must build is experience. Learning those trading terms while still on newbie will just lead to so much confusion. Those terms will automatically be learned all the way.
Im not against those TA's but prior for newbies to learned that, they must understand that TA's especially on altcoins can be spoiled since they are heavily proned to manipulation and whales movement. Altcoins doesn't have a fixed correection and some of them are having a slow volume movement for a long period of time.
There are lots of people who become success in trades without knowing that in their early phase. What matters here is, people must understand the risks. Anyways it's a good reference that's why TA was part of my recipes when doing analysis.
Thanks for the share.
It will really give confusion but if they would really be serious on learning things up then they should embrace on such hardship on understanding it.You wont able to gain experience if you dont have any tools on how you do trade but you do have a point that it isnt really mandatory to learn up TA's but learning it as early as possible would really be a big help for you in your trading.
