Same boat. Great advice fren. While learning all of this shit overall, I realized that I am acquiring a set of skills that 90 percent of the population will never even consider learning, let alone be good at. It’s a steep learning curve, and I’ve come a long way in a short amount of time. That alone is worth it.

>> No.21596664

I've made 60% day trading in the last two months without any kind of particularly deep analysis. $4500 -> $7500 That's while learning some painful lessons about trading fees depending on which site you're on and also being an impatient dipshit in general.

I'm sure there are people who will boast higher amounts, but I prefer a reliable method because realistically? If you can capture 3% per day, that's more than you can make on hardly any real markets. Sometimes you lose, sometimes you win more. But look at it like this:

3% per day with $10,000 is $300 before taxes. That'd be almost $40 an hour with a regular 9 to 5 with virtually no effort on your part each day.

Buy low. Sell high.

If you feel like the market is losing momentum going up, sell and take your benefit.

If you feel like something is dropping, cut your losses.

If something seems unusually low, buy it.

If you see something mooning and you fear your'e missing out, DO NOT FUCKING BUY.

3-8% is great. Don't hold out hoping for the moon.

Do NOT use coinbase normal. Use coinbase pro. Normal has a 1.5% fee on every transaction. Pro has a 0.5% fee which also goes down the more volume you do. This allows for wider profit margins.

TA with crypto only works at all with the daily chart, and even then it's not a sure thing because of all the pump and dumps always going on (remember Caps Lock Anon getting BTFO?). The only TA that I've seen work consistently with crypto is the rainbow/trololo chart, and even then it's on such a long term scale that you might as well buy stocks.

>> No.21599785

Day trading works a little bit, sometimes, but it's very inconsistent.
If you have good gut feels for which patterns to enter and why, then you might make it work. If you just follow recipes with no instinctive "gut feeling" you will lose money in obvious pump & dumps. A lesson Biz still has not learned.

But yeah there's apparently more money in day trading courses than actual day trading.

I misspelled. Fees are too high. So You have to put in thousands to even gain something.

But yes, I hoped to trade from $20 to $100 at least as a beginner. I lost so many on other crypto scams that I basically want to make up all the lost cash from basically nothing.

I spend a ton of time looking at the data. It's a really nasty and addicting habit. It's mostly just up and I'll glance over at it while playing games or watching something.

I set automatic buy and sell whenever I go to sleep. If I'm watching, I can possibly get better deals, but whatever.

I keep it on the exchange.

>>21599320
Yeah, that was a big one for me. I will say, the two things I've found enormously helpful are the MACD analysis and reading the book orders. The price analysis combined with the volume analysis in a very simple way helps you make much safer decisions.

not that anon obviously but I did the same thing and put up a sell in the 19.6 range for LINK. my orders almost never go through but I make sure to put them at extremes. IE if I think something will crash in my sleep I put up half a buy at the resistance, and the other half another -10% from the resistance or something. Same with selling off if I think it's going to pump but I also think it will lose steam.

The catch is to put them in increments small enough to where whales won't look at it on the books as something that needs avoiding, and also to not get too greedy

Well, I don't know if you have something else in mind, but I'm just thinking about sell and buy limits. Like say the current price is $0.50 and I think I could maybe score a bunch at $0.45. So I just set that and go to sleep. I don't shoot for the moon, I just do conservative estimates and it works.

>>21599928
Aggregation is key. At a low aggregation, the book order is just scrambling all over the place and it's virtually impossible to read anything meaningful from it. On the other hand, if you're sitting there with bated breath wondering, "Will this go up past $0.65?" Looking at what kind of volume the market is doing per minute vs how the wall of volume at $0.65 is doing will let you know whether or not you should dip out.

What then, just wait a week if it goes back 0.50+ ?
Do you get any hints from reading news, private chats on certain coins, so you get the idea what limits to set?
That has to be a very stable coin to do this kind of thing.
With scamcoins (like POMP and COOM coins) you can just do it for an hour and double or triple and dont have the stress for the rest of the week. It's basically like gambling off completely unaware new crypto people - the same ones who would have sent bill gates BTC. lol
