Trading Guide for Beginners
Learn the fundamentals of cryptocurrency trading and how to get started on Crypteo. This guide will walk you through the essential concepts and steps.
Introduction to Crypto Trading
Cryptocurrency trading involves speculating on the price movements of digital assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others. The goal is to buy low and sell high to make a profit.
Unlike traditional stock markets, crypto markets can be highly volatile and trade 24/7. This presents both opportunities and risks.
Understanding Market Analysis
There are two main approaches to analyzing the crypto market:
Technical Analysis (TA)
Studying historical price charts and patterns to predict future price movements. Key tools include:
- Support and Resistance Levels
- Moving Averages
- Relative Strength Index (RSI)
- Candlestick Patterns
Fundamental Analysis (FA)
Evaluating the intrinsic value of a cryptocurrency by examining factors such as:
- Project Team and Technology
- Market Cap and Adoption
- News and Regulations
