Well to in technical, To become a trader is easy you just need to have:
1. Account (In trading platform)
2. Capital
But if you want to become a good trader you need to learn so much, like what you've said, candlesticks, strategies, etc. You can watch youtubes, do a research online, read blogs, articles, etc. but for me all of the candlesticks and strategies didn't work 100% percent since it's the community itself who's going to decide the price of the coin. I suggest to learn through a real experience a real trading but my tip is just use a small amount just to experience trading and to avoid high risk.
There are also some sites who offers free trading, a simulator trading where in you can do trading with a coins that has no value. Just to experience a real trading.
There you will not feel emotion, because you do not trade real money. The head will start working when you make mistakes that cost you money, but with every mistake you make, you will become more experienced and cleverer.
