Topic: I see many users talk about trading but does anyone here actually trading? (Read 717 times)

one indication of a beginner trader who talks a lot, and feels proud that he is a trader, so that only a few trades can get big profits, and imagines fun things in the future, but they forget that trading is not just once or twice, but how the way we can survive until later, and usually pro traders will be more silent, because they don't want their concentration to be disturbed when chatting with the market

It is true what @Oshosondy said: it is not difficult to study or learn trading; the only difficult thing is to apply what we learn in trading while we study it. Because in the implementation of what we learned, we argue about whether we really understood what we studied and learned here.

The performance of technical and fundamental analysis is where there is a conflict in understanding. If the technical and fundamentals are wrong, for sure, the traders will not be able to make a profit. But if it's right, we can make a profit here, for sure.

Yes it is true that the first fact in terms of marketing that trading is more marketed on social media and affiliates for education and signal service providers or trading education for a fee is quite a lot, try to compare with this forum, which moves from community to community. That my principle of having a bitcointalk account does not have to have a trading education background, if anyone is new to the forum because of the lack of information and expertise in trading it is field experience that speaks. People who understand technically they analyze with data and facts, not that they never try at all but such forum contributors prefer to read statistically, techniques and scenarios throughout history.

The forum here is a medium for learning the basics, general lines and even experts and developers in crypto currencies, if compared to tahnik and trading styles (mature project coins ready to buy and sell) of course there is much more process during the creation period including how to store and identify all the tools needed. If the forum is filled with trading, there is a function of the forum that is forgotten because it is further and more complex over time including trading topics and coins that are ready to be traded in it. Although it is rare, there are many professional tarders who are not rank up but everyone can be in the observation thread. One's interest is not measured by bitcointalk forum rank because as you mentioned they prioritize getting to day trading faster, maybe.

When it comes to missed opportunities then it would really be that something normal that people would really be missing out and able to hit up the spot basing into their own decisions along the way.
Its someones right if they would really be tending to keep quiet or remain silent about on the things that they are dealing with and not really that having the plans on letting people around
that they've been getting involved with it. Trading is a personal skill which you would really be able to obtain for a certain period of time and condition on which it would be totally basing up on how
well you do be able to adapt and learn up those skills on the time that you do make some dealing. Some could done it in short time but in most cases this would really be a long term haul.
What you do need on how you would really be able to sustain up.

I agree with you because that time we had missed this opportunity because at that time the bitcoin price was very low and we could have hold what it was. The short term  make a loss, some time the profit is available , but the loss is more, I think the idea of the long term, which is exactly the right of the thought.

It's better to invest in those coins which have fundamentaly strong like ETH BITCOIN

Trading is buying and selling and every individual on the forum buys and sell cryptocurrency. Some buy and sell only Bitcoin therefore they don't know about other cryptocurrency but many individuals buy and sell all types of cryptocurrency and this is why they can talk about trading with more thoughts. It's not difficult to talk about trading but when you see the professional traders talking about trading you'll know the difference due to they're talking with experience.

Many individuals are talking about trading as it's easier to talk than to do. Many individual are saying we should sell at the top and buy at the bottom but they can't do it when it's time due to not having knowledge on how to read and interpret the charts. Talking how to trade is very easy but trading isn't as if you think the market is as gambling that you can guess and win all your trades, you'll lose all your capital.

Everyone explains trading base on it's own way of understanding trading as well, but some people who doesn't know the rudiments of Trading or taught about trading when you see their comments you will know that it's totally different from someone who have experience of trading, so I believe that trading have to do with continuous practicing or exercise and Everyone will explains trading or discuss about it base on the way it understands trading.

Crypto trading my view members here have done it, it also happened to me personally, even though I made good or bad trades, but it can make me better for myself and I feel the trading I have done and I feel the results.

I am very sure that some of the members here who carry out their trades are successful and enjoy the results of their trades, even though I don't fully know them, I am still sure there are members.

Talking about members who trade crypto, of course there are interesting things you can see in: Topic: [Interviews] with Bitcointalk members., there is point number eight that you can see members answer about trading.
For example:

Hopefully this can be additional information for you about members who trade crypto here.

Ever heard of "Speech is silver silence is gold"? And I don't talk about you know bro, your post was good and I agree with it. But if someone don't know about trading he/she should shut up instead of say it's waste of time.
Because earning money is never waste of time. Anyway. Your post was good and I agree with most of it and I hope you got my point. Cheers brother.

It's possible that majority of people here are not a regular trader but you should also know that you don't have to be a trader before you give advice on trading. It's important to know that everything you see here as regarding trading is people opinion and that's why you are supposed to do your own research concerning anything on trading and investment entirely. By the way, most post here advise people to stay away from trading because it's too risky and a waste of time.


I really don't want to subscribe to this idea that trading is not hard but making money in trading is hard. What's the essence of learning something and you can not make money from it? It's that feature that makes it hard in my opinion. The reason you are learning trading is to make some money and if you can not, then it's hard for you to learn. Moreover, I think the argument on trading has always been centered on difficult it can be to make profits and not how easily we can learn it. Learning trading basics is not even due for argument since you understand them by reading books and other materials on trading.


Of course, you can share your previous experiences and it might be of help to people out there willing to trade. You don't have to be a frequent trader before you give your opinion since the experience gotten can not be lost.

I often try to post in many trading threads to try and warn people off it.

Trading is the easiest thing to do. Losing money in trading is even easier. But the way people post plus the way trading is sold to them, it just makes people blind to the fact that traders lose money. That's the plain hard truth.

I feel like this is one of the most irresponsible places in the forum As veterans we should try bring that awareness and tackle all the bad quality content here.

You can learn and trade many years but without net profit. It is not something surprising because most of traders lose money and very few traders get profit.

In short term, most of traders can see profit even bad traders because if they trade in an upward trend, they will easily see profit. But they fail to protect their profit then initial capital and lose money. It will be worse when they trade in a bear market when they possibly lose money at faster rate.

Thank you for sharing it. I believe most of us experienced similar things in trading.

Awesome crypto trading for any newbie, traders want to learn.

I did try trading, and like what the first poster said, learning trading isn't hard, but making money in trading is the hard part.

When I was trying to learn trading, I still remember the feeling when you watch a Youtube video, they share some tips, and tricks that can help me as a newbie trader. The feeling when they're sharing their own strategy, the indicators that they're using, and of course the profits that they're making. I felt the excitement and said to myself "I'll just copy what he says, and I will get profit as well."

Well, I did try. I copied those strategies, and made some profits at first, but over time, emotion is getting me. The feeling of me getting more greedy as I want more profit since I know that I'm winning already. That's the reason why I always lose in trading. Greedy is always getting me. I get profits in my first 10 trades, then all of that profits plus my initial capital will go *poof* in an instant just because of a wrong entry in futures trading.

Whenever I talk about trading here, I only share my own experience. Currently, I stopped trading, and I don't want to trade anymore but at least I can share some of my experiences here.

Op from look of things before you create this thread you know the person you are talking about which is not a real trader but posting in the trading board section, well that should not make you angry because the person can read trading books and used it to make comments very well and also used demo account to trade and can use it to make comments. And if the person comments are in line with the topic then there is no problem for that. If you are losing and do not making any profit from your trading then you are not good in trading therefore you have to learn more. And I must tell you Op, learning how to trade is hard and if it is not hard you would have used it to make money easily but it is hard and that is why you can't use it to make money.

Not everyone that trade makes money.

I didn't sell bitcoin in the last few years - but just accumulated them. I don't trade - but just buy and collect more. Anyone who buys and sells them is a trader - this activity can be done by anyone as long as you have the budget for it. Forum rank does not determine whether you are an expert - but you can easily become famous with some good analysis of trading.

I also understand what the OP is trying to say - many people say they are traders but they don't trade. They also say they accumulate - but they don't actually do it. We don't need any proof of that - the discussion continues and lies are never profitable.

That is actually true, the technique you have found may not totally work on others.
This is why we are in continuous pursuit of our own tactics that we will be comfortable of.
As we have a very volatile market, one should always keep in touch with what is actually happening in the market.

That's actually the scenario.

If it works for the others, might work for some and be profitable but definitely not going to work for everybody. The market is tough but profitable when you're able to do what's necessary and you know have understood the foundations of it.

But there are things that can't be decided even if how hard you're trying to do it.

My trading is my own trading. Your trading is your own trading. I or anyone else should not interfere in other people's trading matters. Your argument regarding this is correct. In fact, no one can dictate our trading, because whether we make a profit or not is a personal matter for each of us, we ourselves are responsible for this. Even if I just keep quiet or trade, we shouldn't tell other people, this is a form of responsibility in itself. I sometimes wonder about people who always tell other people about their trading and even provide screenshots, is there any motivation here?

That part of "some may work for some, and not work for others" part is the most important part that many people are missing. Let's assume that there is a strategy called X, that doesn't mean that it will make money for everyone, I can use the strategy X and make a lot of money and meanwhile you can use the same and make nothing. This is why it's quite important to realize that you are going to end up with not a single solution to any of this, that's not how any of this works.

You need to figure out what works for you, test stuff and see the results and keep testing until you find what works for you on the long run. I believe that we are going to end up with something that would be a lot more important on the long run without a doubt.

No matter how much time someone may have spend in the forum without learning about trading, you won't become a good trader. Just holding Bitcoin for a long time won't make you a professional trader either. To be successful, trading requires good knowledge and skills. Simply discussing it in a forum isn't enough; you need extra learning outside the forum to become a good trader. It's like learning to ride a bike just talking about it won't make you a skilled cyclist; you have to practice and understand the techniques. So, spending time wisely to learn and practice is essential for becoming a successful trader.


Trading is hard, and at the same time, it is not hard. It is hard for some people, but at the same time, some people find it that easy, but the percentage of people complaining about trading hard is higher than that of those who feel it is not hard. Many people have lost money in trading, which is why they are complaining, and you have been seeing many threads about how trading is hard. If someone doesn't have good knowledge about trading, they will find it difficult to be successful in trading, and what makes trading hard is the time they spend acquiring the knowledge, especially doing technical analysis when someone wants to setup their trading. So the stress in it has made it so hard compared to a bitcoin investment that someone just needs to have basic knowledge, find a proper wallet to store Bitcoin for proper securities, and wait until the best time to sell.
 

Members are expressing their opinions based on their experiences, not because they are whining about how difficult trading is in order to fulfill their signature campaign need, in my opinion. Going against trade has nothing to do with signatures.a lot of signature campaigns on the forum are gambling signature campaign, and interestingly, the people involved in the signature campaigns are usually criticizing how dangerous gambling and they are also saying people to say way from it.

Yes, it is not by ranks that we can judge who is knowledgeable about trading here in forum, rank is just how someone has been contributing valuable things to the forum, because that is how someone can get merit in the forum and able to rank up the account. and there are many sections in the forum to contribute to, so someone who just joined the forum and their account is showing newbies or is not contributing to the forum doesn't mean they don't have more knowledge than higher-ranking members in some sections.
