First of all, note that the market has mainly three sides, bull/green (short or long term), sideways, and bear/red (short or long term).
If you're an inexperienced trader like me, don't look at the sideways and red markets. Always wait for a green market (and it happens at least once every month). During that time, set a little target (say 10%-20%) you can even make more if you follow a good coin. Enter the market and take your profits.
Wait for the next round (probably a month a later)- you can keep your money in a stable coin, and by the end of a year you could make (10-20%)x 12 on your money.
Don't try trading everyday if you're not a PRO, they'll squeeze your money from your hands lol...and also never try catching tops and bottoms of you're not a PRO, they'll squeeze it once again. (remember you may be dealing with bots).
Merry Christmas (if you celebrate) and a Happy New Year to y'all.
Edited: This isn't to say that don't study the market. In fact you'll need to build your knowledge to survive in crypto, especially in these times, but this is a message to newbies who're trying out the market (fact is that, you can study the market as long as you want but if you joke all your money will be drained). Have you ever asked yourself why people in paid groups make the most money from trading, you just can't learn TA and FA lol.... There are PROs and they're moving the market so my trick is to help you also benefit as they move the markets. So that you don't try competing with them coz they can make you REKT, trust me.
Hello! first of all, congrats! You started a really fascinating path. Hope, you are still improving your skills.
I'd suggest you to pay a special attention to risk an money management, as saving what you gained is more difficult than even to earn.
