Trading is easy as long as you don't get greedy. All these faggots using their fucking meme patterns on high time frames are simply addicted to gaming.
Swing on a low time frame and identify support and resistances from 1 hour back to 1 week and then buy support and sell near resistance. It's not sexy but you get solid 6 - 10% gains.

I like any indicator that is based on psycology. Trend lines and volume. What other indicators are good for reading off market psycology?

> 1) Pick a setup.
Breakout above 200 day moving average, or a fall to 200 day support, or 60 day, or triangle convergence, or whatever. Pick a setup. (listen to Chat With Traders podcast on youtube for ideas)
> 2) Limit per-trade risk to <2% of your bankroll
Breakout above 200 day, for example? Okay, we'll enter there and set our stop at 2 ATRs below entry. Scale our position size so that if we drop to that 2ATR line and get "stopped out" we'll only lose 2% or less of our total bankroll.
> 3) repeat.

Pick your battles, manage your risk. That's all it is. The rest is finding what timescales and setups work best for your personal needs.

Me? I like intraday momentum setups . I can jump in with a small risk, make a quick few hundred bucks and jump out before the next 5 minute bar has published. Roughly 15 trades a day. 5 eat that risk-dick, 5 are okay enough to wash-out those losses plus a little extra, and 5 make 80% of the profits.

That's what real deal big-boy trading looks like. Pick your battles, manage your risks.

If I could just jump in and out, that would be great. 0.2% fees on taker orders and 0.1% on maker orders. Either way, just to get them fees back, you need to make it a bit. Then when you put in a big sum, it accualy moves whole market a bit. So now people are fucking you because bar went down/up from wherever you bought.

You should look into higher leverages, here's why I love 50x leverage:

If I have a setup for a trade that would be clearly proven wrong by a 2% move against my line in the sand, I can go "all-in" on that opportunity with only 2% of my bankroll @ 50x leverage. If the price moves 2% against me, my position is wiped out and I lose that 2%. Do you see what I'm saying here? If I was making that move with raw coins, I'd be limiting my risk to the same exact amount... but with high leverage I can make that same move with ONLY the amount I was going to risk. 98% of my bankroll is still free to make similar plays on other opportunities while that plays out.

This is the kinda thinking that leaps from "I understand indicators" to real trading.

What kind of trades do you look for and how much do you risk on a trade?
You must be able to answer these questions, do you see what I'm saying here?
A good trader knows his setup enough to confidently describe the distribution of his next 100 trades.

the punch line: Practice.

Lets say you can predict where the market is going 19 out of 20 times and win 0.5% each time. If you have one trade that loses 20% or you get margin called...Your whole system is going to zero. It gets even worse if you are trading multiple pairs or run into a bad streak. Its not predictable even if your system or data looks ok...
