HI,
Over the years I've acquired around a few hundred dollars worth of bitcoin. I'm now looking to sell off part of my coins and start trading on the side of what I do personally for work. I was in the bitcoin scene awhile ago but i'm looking to get back into it. My question to everyone here is: What are the DOs and DONTs of bitcoin trading? Also any other advice for a beginner would be helpful. I'm new to this site, so i'm sorry if there is already a thread posted about this. Also, what are the best sites to use for trading through experience? Complexity doesn't matter to me. Thanks in advance for any help I receive.
Regards,
Kyle aka Aggressive
I will suggest the same things that I have done by now.
And I think every trader would have done the same in starting days of their trade.
First one should find an exchange which is suitable for his country taking account of security , fee , volatility and other services provided by that exchange.
1. Open your account in that exchange .
2.Deposit money in your exchange . Many exchange didn't accept Fiat currency so first buy your bitcoin from an exchange which accepts Fiat currency like coin base.
3. Then transfer your bitcoin to into your exchange. But never keep your assets in any exchange . Keep it in a wallet.
4. Then start trading . Buy at low price and sell at high price.
For beginners I would suggest to trade in USDT(tether) market . Tether is a stablecoin. USDT is pegged to the US Dollar . This allows traders to transfer the “fiat equivalent” in value between exchanges, without the need for normal fiat currency regulation. It's value is always 1$. No worry of fluctuations in market .
Try to understand trading terms like Volume, market order , limit order, stop loss order ( imp strategy for beginners) . Try to understand the interface of exchange you are using.
Try to understand fundamental analysis which is based on positive or negative news of cryptocurrencies.
Try to understand technical analysis which includes reading price charts. Candlesticks , bull and bear markets , resistance and supports level , trend lines help in reading charts.
Initially use small amount of your asset for trading then increase it gradually according to your expertise.
I suggest to first start trading on a simulator without any fear. You can get many websites.
