I looked at my pc screen 247, 20 hours out of the 24 hours in a day. I am familiar with all the trading signs like hammer,  inverted hammer, doji. But even with these I still lost while trading. Most times, I decided not to trade without news from a particular project but even with a huge news like partnership, burning folks, I end up still losing.
What's really the cause? And how can I trade without losing much?
Nobody can trade without losing. What is trade? Trade is prognostication about price of cryptocurrencies will go up or down in the future because of prognostication, it can right or wrong, right prognostication you will get profitable and wrong prognostication you will be lost your money.
As you said, you have knowledge about candlestick chart but you were still lost during trading, i think maybe you didn't build effective strategy, you need have target and stoploss point to limit losses and get more profitable than. Moreover, you need to learn more some element technical analysis as: MACD, RSI, Stochastic.... to can give right prediction.

Trade without losing just do buy at the lowest then sell once up even a little its still sure profit, buy on market with low price sell on another market which have higher price, buy coin in low price,  hold for a quite long then sell once big pump.. By these methods you can prevent losing on trading just keep an eye always on what coin you are holding.

Even if you do make 25/7 on a day on doing trading it wont really guarantee you out to be profitable if you are relying too much out of those technical aspects. You should mind or do have a balanced way of trading. Loses cant be avoided and it is normal but somehow can be minimized as we do gain experience and knowledge.Just a piece of advice on doing trading dont just rely on technical alone better to have combination with technical and fundamentals.

Man there is no way to operate in a market without a bit of loss.
The main thing is having a loss with spoon and win with a bowl. Must say it is obvious and the point is how to have insights to decide the better point to go short or long in the operations.

Well, considering the Dow theories, which says that all information - past, current and even future - is discounted into the markets and reflected in the prices of stocks and indexes, may I include cryptocurrency here? For sure!

I mean, depending on your goals, if it is day-trade, swing-trade or HODL, you have to first manage your portfolio risk. In order to do that, tools might be used. If you want HODL an asset for long, so keep on track on the news about the current project (the coin/token which you are investing) are realy worthful, however, if your goal is to maximize part of your portfolio through high risk investments, the News on track could be not necessary, in this case the best tool for sure is the Technical Analysis, specific one line called Price Action.

Just to share an example see the figure I attached.

https://www.tradingview.com/x/it1IyHrF/

It is showing a Fibo Retracement traced from the high peak to the deepest bottom. Now, (01/19/2018 5:30pm) we are seeing that the BTC price is into a high channel, it has been in to the support and the resistant line for while, testing the Fibo 0,38% level. We also have a Elliot impulse wave presenting the cycle the price is repeating. If the prices presents any clue of passing the Fibo 0,38% level, we can expect to achieve the $13K line, otherwise set your stop in the  entry point. That´s it.

Look, I dont want to give any financial advise ok? That is only the way I analyze the market trying to make a trade without losing (so much).

Cheers!

No one can do trade like that because everyone will face lose in the crypto trading because the price of crypto currency are too volatile and it is hard to predict the price of our holding coin in the next hour.So it is better to do more trades as much as possible with small profits will help us from losing.

It's really hard to earn all the time with trading but it's not impossible. There are still a lot of people never losing anything in trading cause they're professional trader right at the start cause they start trading after they got enough experience and knowledge about trading. Beside they have ability to analyze the chart so they can easily know when is the best time to buy and sell without trading signal and trading bot.

I do not believe that every trader wins in every trade. Even the most professional traders get t wrong sometimes but the only ones that are the biggest winners are the big market manipulators which mainly are either the big banks or the biggest whales who manipulate and totally control the markets purely fr their personal gains and advantage and I think they are the only ones that truly come out on top and win almost all of their trades as they are mostly in control all of the time, especially in the crypto currency market trading atmosphere.

What's really the cause? And how can I trade without losing much?

if you're a begginer this is normal , you have to gain experience through losing .. to improve your strategy , don't overtrade, follow the trend and have patience

OP has to understand the simple truth that no trader that doesn't lose a trade from time to time but they win more than they lose. Thats the difference.

You can not be a winner all the time even in games like boxing, football etc. Is the way it has to be so it will make us continuously try to learn better ways to beat the trade and will most times than we lose.

If you are entering into trading, you should not have the fear of losing. You should have the courage to overcome everyloss. Each loss will make you much stronger and it is a learning experience. Its also necessary to aware of not losing since its our money we should develop our analytical skill and knowledge about trading. Invest a little and study a lot in the beginning later you can invest some bigger amount.

I think you should look into the market, how the prices change in order to plan, and in business sometimes fail a few times is not a problem, that failure will give you more experience

It's not possible to predict in trading weather you would actually make profit or loss there are few ways where you can trade without getting further loss by deciding a profit level or a minimum loss most of us do this in gambling also you can try in trading also

In trading lose and profit goes in same way. If you are newbie you have to learn more and more about good trading. Without gathering vast knowledge about trading if you invest you are a foolish person i think. If you trade in a coin of market please read every message of that coin in market. After that you can invest of that coin. You will be gainer.

It's impossible not to lose some trades. Even people like warren buffet have made bad trades. Don't worry so much about losing a few here and there because it happens to everybody. As long as you win more than you lose, it's fine.

Even big whales like Warren Buffet lose money on stocks and all often. Though they wont advertise those themselves because that would hurt their image a lot but losses does exist in every traders portfolio. Cheesy

Its important to learn from these mistakes and not make them twice. Its also important to differentiate and contrast between two or more altcoins which one is going to be a long term hold and which one should be dumped soon.

according to me it is never possible,to trade without loosing? this is a ridiculous question.
you trade you loose you gain experience and then learn from your mistakes thats how you progress up the trading community and get yourself established.
you dont need to react to every change that takes place only act when necessary.

If you are a beginner in trading, losing experiences is a normal thing. Make it a good experience to improve yourself and to learn more techniques in order to gain more profit.

exactly. loosing is also normal and always part of the game  especially if your a newbie and just getting started to do trading however you can always use that as an advantage in order to motivate your self and push more thru your limits. youll then eventually learn to trade with a minimal risk but of course you cannot still avoid loosing because the market is always unpredictable. You know trading is like a gambling, sometimes you can win but there were times that you also loose.

Trading is not a simple job so we should consider that we can lose our money instantly. If you want to not lose again in trading, then study harder. Find a way where you can improve your trading skills and overcome all of your losses.

I am not sure that such thing is possible, losing is a fundamental part of trading, you can however minimize losses and increase profits buy setting targets for each, investing on well researched projects and not based on trivial advise. and the best advise of all: invest only what you can afford to lose and dont be afraid of losing, this is a high risk high reward market. good luck!

The point is trading cryptocurrencies is not like forex trading where some patterns may be a too sure strategy,in fact I found out that most of the times reading candle sticks and anticipating the markets wasn't a sure way of trading to make profits.The real cause to me is that traders themselves are unpredictable and most of the times,those trading are actually not traders but people who just want to dump some coins they may have gotten freely leading to erratic price changes.
Man, even if it’s forex trading, no matter your years of experience or your skills, there are chances you’re likely to lose. That you’re an expert doesn’t mean you won’t lose in trading, cause even bots lose. You can’t predict the market accurately.

Sometimes it may seem to be moving accordingly and the next minute everything come down crashing. So you can’t trade without losing. The difference with experts is that they have lesser chances of losing and bigger chance to win.
