- Literally, the difference is that bitcoin is more closely associated with blockchain technology, but stock trading is clearly associated with the classic trading method. Apart from what I've already stated, there is company ownership in stock trading, and the value of cryptocurrencies is determined by supply and demand, the future, and use cases.
And when it comes to market hours in stock trading, people usually do it during business hours, however in cryptocurrency, you can do it whenever you want, in short, 24/7. In terms of regulation, all stock trading is governed by the government. While the focus of cryptocurrency is mainly on manipulations, occasionally hacking, or regulations, they differ greatly per jurisdiction.

When it comes to trading based on technical analysis all markets are the same whether crypto, stock or forex .Crypto markets are just more volatile but it is always open for trading ,Forex market has more volatilities and closed during weekends while stock markets are very slow and are closed most of the time .You will also have to more funds to trade the stock market but when it comes to their charts all are the same and you can use the same skills and knowledge in trading all of them.

The most common difference is that crypto trading can be done at any time while stock trading has a closing time, this is a striking difference, in terms of almost the same analysis it can be applied to both crypto and stock trading, only crypto has more volatile charts, I personally prefer it. favor crypto trading over stocks

In Forex trading have closing time if i am not wrong it opens friday to sunday that means 5 days in a week, also it's activity is limited in the weekend. On the other hand crypto trading is open for 24/7, there are no closing time. I have no experienced in the stock trading market but i think many things are similar with crypto trading.

Many people thoughts that cryptocurrency trading and traditional stock market trading at the same thing it's true that the cripto trading and traditional stock market trading looks like Kindda same but there are also some major difference between them one main difference between them is legality cryptocurrency is not legal in all regions but you will see about stock market trading it's more likely legal all over the world and one more thing is cryptocurrency can be fully decentralize you will not find this on stock market trading.

I'm a newbie in trading. I read books by John Schwager, Alexander Elder, John Bollinger about technical analysis and psychology in trading and I began to doubt that all this was suitable for the modern cryptocurrency market. How is crypto trading similar to stock and Forex trading? What are its similarities and differences?
I would like to thank everyone in advance for their replies, I appreciate it!
Because the crypto market is volatile, sometimes things don't go as expected, but Bitcoin traders who have done long-term market analysis understand the reality of this book. I know a trader who trades Bitcoin and his analysis seems successful to me, because he was able to correctly identify the last two bottoms as well. But he was a forex trader before he got into bitcoin trading, he is getting great results by using his forex market experience in the crypto market. I would like to thank everyone in advance for their replies, I appreciate it!
A trader has to do a lot of hard work to be successful, there are no short cuts and those who find short cuts get out of the market quickly. If you can do good technical analysis of the market then you will get good results in any market. So, to be a good trader, you need to acquire enough knowledge about the technical, fundamental and psychological conditions of the market, so that you can stay in the market for a long time.

Can you tell us why exactly you are doubting that the principles described on those books do not apply to the market of cryptocurrencies? I do not remember ever reading a trading book from Schwager, but I have read books from Elder and Bollinger and they are quite good, so in my opinion anyone that were to follow their advice to the letter and grew as a trader with them will do well in any market, so do not give up just yet as you seem to be on the right track. I would like to thank everyone in advance for their replies, I appreciate it!

When it comes into their differences then the main thing on which this is the most recognizable at all which is "VOLATILITY" on which this is the main difference on which we could really be able to noticeI would like to thank everyone in advance for their replies, I appreciate it!
comparing to stocks from crypto and this is where some traders do really get interested when it comes to profitability just because they could really be able to do it when they do get engaged with
crypto trading. It is really just that there are people who cant really be able to bare up with the risks on what volatility could bring but we know that this is something rewarding
if you do really just know on what you would gonna do into this market.
Also just like been said by other members that 24/7 market for crypto market, there's no such thing about closing and opening market just like on stocks or Forex.
This is why it would really be just that depending into your own preference if we do speak about dealing up on crypto or stocks.
It would really be just that depending into your own preference and interest since not all could be able to bare up the risks.

its pretty similar honestly, the mechanism and all, but there's always something that make both instrument distinguishable, to be honest, if i were to suddenly trade stock then it'd be no problem for me since its simple thing as simple if compared with cryptocurrency but there's just some difference in terms used like lots, and so on.
but i would argue that in term of profit making cryptocurrency showing to be a better option here, there's reason why the market capital is always growing and growing.
therefore why i would prefer to invest in cryptocurrency than stocks.
It is clear that crypto has high volatility compared to shares, and therefore crypto price movements are faster and can be more profitable compared to shares. 100% profit can be obtained in a day and vice versa. Crypto grows with rapid fluctuations and must be prepared for anything that could happen. but i would argue that in term of profit making cryptocurrency showing to be a better option here, there's reason why the market capital is always growing and growing.
therefore why i would prefer to invest in cryptocurrency than stocks.

In the crypto market, there are a lot of meme coins and shitcoins. I think it's the same with the stocks, the underrated stocks that don't get that much attention to traders.
Holding is also in the stocks.
Like if you're the type of investor that don't want to be active at all, blue chip stocks are you go-to buy. And that's the same with what we have here, Bitcoin.

Yeah, there's a faster movement in crypto and that's why that capital of yours can grow significantly if you're lucky within a week or two. therefore why i would prefer to invest in cryptocurrency than stocks.
But it's a quick phasing that you have to be aware of the risk that you're having as well. I'm into crypto obviously but, maybe in the nearest future, I'll get back to stocks.

In simple terms, both are the same, and knowledge about trading can be used in both trades. Only for crypto, you have to know about market conditions before opening a position because this is quite important and crypto trading is quite full of speculation, while stock trading will be safer because the regulations are certain, it's different in crypto especially if you trade in altcoins which are full of fraud so if you don't first find out more about the coin it will only lead you to losses., and in stock trading you trade stock of companies whose existence is clear while crypto is all only available online which could be a fake.

If you want to know the similarities between trading in crypto and trading in shares and forex along with the similarities or differences. I think you only need to read a few things that are outside of these books because if a book has been published a long time ago and circulated to the wider community, of course there are things that are not included or included in it because times are very different now. So try reading all the contents of the book and start exploring the internet to look for the similarities and similarities that crypto, stock and forex trading has. Because basically every trade is aimed at seeking more profits with less capital.

Because both are considered as trading so for me, the only difference is the market. We all know cryptocurrency market is extremely volatile compared to other assets like stocks and the 24/7 also
So for me, nothing more difference besides the volatility and availability to trade. For me, you can apply both of your knowledge in any of the assets trading. I know someone who trading both stocks and crypto at the same time.
If you've been in the other markets and you have already knowledge about the moves and how to read the charts, going in one and the other are totally the same and applicable.
That means that it's easier for you to adopt when you've been in the other markets and that's going to make things easier for you.

Trading stock seems complicated (but not too complicated that no one can learn easily) because I first started trading crypto which is 24/7 market without terms like "in the money", "lots", etc.
So crypto is easier that stock and there are no many requirements to register account and start to trade.
crypto is more volatile than stocks, forex, commodity. so it is more riskier and we get more opportunity to make profit. also trading psychology is similar on every market because same people and bots are trading and following the TA breakouts and retests, etc.
In stock we need to do fundamental analysis of companies and in crypto we need to do onchain analysis.

I am not going to dwell on them like that or deeply but it will be a brief explanation to them with their different. Your question has a partial answer to the question because as the name implies, cryptocurrency trading is the same trading method with the traditional forex trading and the different is that cryptocurrency uses cryptocurrency as digital currency to trade they are not using national currency to trade while traditional forex trading uses dollar or the country's currency to trade. There advantages and disadvantages in the both trading. But that should be an another day explanation.

Main difference?
1. Volatility
2. Regulation
3. Decentralized vs Centralized
4. Fundamental effects
Speaking about application of TA?
It would really be just the same on which traders on this market are definitely been making use of TA because news cant really be something that they could really be able to rely with.
Not all the time that fundamentals would really be leading or mainly be affecting this market on which it would really be just that a normal approach that people or traders
would really be commonly making use of these indicators.
The thing i do like on crypto market is that the possibility on earning huge profits once you do able to make yourself do make good trading decisions or calls.
Unlike on stocks or forex which movement is really that too slow. I do even believe that there are lots or tons of forex/stocks traders
did really consider out on touching crypto space because of this main difference.

The difference is the market itself, the volatility and the risk but in terms of the approach and strategy it can be the same since same indicators are being used when you are going to trade. In terms of the market time, crypto is 24/7 while the stock market works only during the weekdays and there are options in crypto that are more advance compare to stocks, especially in our local market where futures are still not available.
