Listening to news is not a good thing to do when you are into trading. If we believe in the news it will lead us to some bad decision that we will regret if bad thing happens. We should only rely on our own skill and knowledge in trading. Because no one can help us when we lose our capital.
Honestly, as far as I am concerned, even though you cannot do without them to keep tabs of what is going on around you, they can be a distraction sometimes, but the most important thing is to bot pay much attention to most especially some negative news and then use that to make some market decisions.
I have always believed in using price action in making decisions in market over the years, and that is something that has always worked pretty fine for me and not news. Sometimes, the only thing news can give you may be the ability to see some fundamental potential in the long term holding of some coins, but even at that, I want to be buying at a good spot.
