The creator shares personal insights to help new traders avoid common mistakes and build a solid foundation for profitable trading. ### Key Points - **Market Mechanics** [02:11] — The market moves based on supply and demand. When demand exceeds supply, price rises; when supply exceeds demand, price falls. Volatility (active price movement) creates trading opportunities. - **Day Trading vs. Long-Term Investing** [04:15] — Day trading allows you to capture smaller price movements within a single day, potentially earning $500-$800 with the same risk as a $75 annual gain. This is because intraday moves can be exploited multiple times. - **Essential Tools** [05:33] — Three essential tools: TradingView for charting and analysis, Bybit as the exchange for trading, and a trading journal (Google Sheets or notebook) to track performance. - **Trading Psychology** [10:09] — Three key mindset shifts: 1) Losses are not always bad; they are the cost of doing business. 2) Being wrong is not a personal failure. 3) A profitable trade is not necessarily a good one if it was based on luck. - **Risk Management Calculation** [11:30] — Risk management example: With $100 risk per trade, a stop-loss at $3 below entry allows you to buy 33 units. If the price moves favorably, you can set a take-profit at 3x the risk ($300). - **Win Rate vs. Profitability** [13:45] — Even with a 30% win rate, you can be profitable if your average win is larger than your average loss. Example: 7 losses of 1 unit each, 3 wins of 5, 2.5, and 3.1 units = net profit of 3.8 units. - **Technical Analysis Basics** [16:04] — Key technical analysis tools: trend lines to identify direction, Fibonacci retracement (50% and 61.8% levels) for pullback entries, and Fair Value Gaps (FVG) for spotting price imbalances that often get filled. - **Strategy Building Process** [20:56] — Steps to build a strategy: 1) Form an idea based on observation. 2) Define rules. 3) Evaluate results (win rate, average win/loss). 4) Decide if profitable. Test on a demo account first. ## Transcript lost years, I would not have drained my deposits. I would have been earning 800 bucks a day a long time ago. And now I’m going to show you something that will completely change your understanding of trading. These are not just motivational words, but a clear structure that every beginner should start with. This video is your chance not to repeat my mistakes. So don't get distracted for a second. Well, I'll start with the fundamental information, a simple approach to trading, starting from the tools you'll need to walk through this process with of trading, which is most likely the most important factor that can either make or break your trading. I'll explain a simple way to understand the math behind trading, which at first may seem, well, super confusing. I'll also give you a complete crash course on the most important things I know about technical analysis. I will also show you how to create and test your own strategies. And finally, we'll apply everything we've learned to a real-world scenario and see how it works in real life. finish watching this video, you'll have a clear, simplified plan on how to get started trading the right way. First, let's look at how trading works and how we should view the market. There are a huge number of small details in trading that can be confusing, but only if they are studied separately and haphazardly. So, to begin with, I will now give you a general picture of how the market functions and what its , but for now we won't pay attention to anything other than how and why the market is moving. When we look at the chart, in this case it is the blue line, we see the price rise and fall. In essence, this is a clear reflection of the mass psychology of people. There are buyers and sellers in the market . In reality, everything is arranged a little more complicated than simply pressing a buy or sell button. Algorithms, direct transactions and other mechanisms come into play. But the essence is actually very simple. The market is constantly adjusting to eliminate these imbalances between supply and demand. It works something like this. Let's take this section of the market, for example. Here the price is going up. This means that there is demand from buyers and supply from sellers in the market. If demand exceeds supply, the price will move up until it reaches a point where supply again exceeds demand. After this, the market will correct downwards until demand again prevails over supply. So the market will continue to fluctuate back and forth, which creates volatility. Let's put it in simple terms. Volatility is when prices in the market move up and down actively. It is at such moments that we have an excellent opportunity to earn money. Simply put, a trader's task is to find the moment when an asset can be bought at one price and then sold at a higher price. For example, you bought 100 pieces of anything for $100, and the price rose to $ 105, we get $5 profit from each piece. Total 500 bucks. It's simple. bought cheap, sold expensive, made a profit. Now let's go one step deeper and figure out where these intraday opportunities come from. This is the key to making money within one day. That is, just as we all want. Fast. And for the sake of understanding, let's take a period of one year as an example. Overall, Bitcoin has seen growth of around 70% over the past year. OK? This means that if we invested $100 at the beginning of the year and by the end of the year the price rose by 75%, we would only have $175. Technically, our only risk was that if Bitcoin suddenly crashed to zero, we would lose our original $100. However, in a normal year you will receive much less income. That means we would actually have to wait a whole year to earn that 75%. And in fact, this is not bad at all, but only if you have a huge capital. But if you have a small deposit, a small account, and you want to earn a lot and quickly, it’s super difficult, but it’s realistic, then you just need to choose different tools and a different approach. What if we zoom in and take one small area? That is, instead of the movement over the entire year, let's consider the price movement over a single day. Let's take today as an example . Even in one day we see this kind of upward movement and this kind of downward movement. Instead of waiting a whole year, if you could enter the market right here and sell somewhere around here within the day, with the same risk of $100, I emphasize, we also only risk a hundred. We could have made an extra $185. And this is just for one such movement, which took place in about an hour. And there may be several such opportunities in the course of one day . which allow us, instead of earning $75 in a year, to $75 in a year, to earn $500,800 in 1 day with the same level of risk. But when we trade intraday, everything becomes much more complicated. Is it just that it does earn more and faster with the same level of risk and the same level of difficulty? No. And here it’s not just the idea that’s important, but the precise calculation. We need to understand exactly how much we are risking, where exactly we are entering the trade, and what the chances are that everything will go according to plan. Without this, there all these tools and websites that we will need to organize all of this and start trading. So, in essence, we only need three main pillars. The first trending platform where we can work with charts and perform all the analysis. This will be your main platform. For your separate lesson on it in the description. The second is the place where we will actually trade. And even before real trades, I'll show you how you can practice completely risk-free, but more on that later. Now you need to identity, and top it up with at least $100 . This is more than enough to consolidate everything in practice. If you register using the link in the description and get up to $30,000 for that it’s a bit difficult, then start with five free lessons of the basic course. There all your questions if something doesn’t work out. I left the link in the description or via this QR code. The third is the transaction journal. This could convenient format, or even a paper notebook. When you log into Trading View, you'll see a screen that looks something like this. You need to click on the products section at the top and select supercharts. This will open a blank chart in front of you. When I trade, I usually do this. I place the Trading View window on one half of the screen, and the Bybit exchange window on the other. When you choose a trade, you choose a trading pair, that is, one asset against another. Most often, this is an asset against the US dollar. For example, Salana QSD is the salana against the dollar. The dollar hardly changes, but the salana can rise or fall. And it is this movement that we trade. We can manage our pairs using the so-called watchlist, which is located in Trending View. For example, if you are creating a new list, click the plus sign and select, say, Salan's cryptocurrency, USDT. This way, you will add different trading pairs to the list, and this will allow you to quickly switch between them. Now, when you look at the chart, you will see that you initially had a line chart enabled. It's just a line showing how the price is moving. But I can switch to candle mode. This is because candlesticks provide much more information for the day trader. Let me explain how candles work. The green candle shows that the price rose, opened below, and moved up - this is the maximum. It went down - that's the minimum. closed higher than it opened. The body of the candle from close to close. The shadows show how far the price has moved up and down. The red candle, on the contrary, opened at the top and closed lower, that’s why it’s red, and the price fell. In general, if you feel that the topic of charts and candlesticks is still a little complicated for you, then pause this video, watch this video, be glad that everything is clear to you now, and continue watching this video. This is the best thing you can find on YouTube for beginners in working with charts. But let's get back to our schedule. Candles will show us different information depending on the selected time frame, time interval. In the top menu you can select an interval from 15 seconds to a whole week. For example, I have two Ethereum charts open side by side for demonstration purposes. On the left is a five-minute timer, on the right is a daily timer. The same area is highlighted in blue on both graphs. On the daily chart, this area is represented by a single candlestick that shows the open, close, high and low for the day. And on the left five-minute chart, the same daily area is broken down into price movements during the day in 5-minute increments. The timeframe is essentially how much time one candle shows. On a chart with a 5-minute time frame, one candle equals 5 minutes of price movement. On a daily chart, one candle equals one whole day. And in fact, the smaller the time frame, the shorter the period shown by the candle itself. Now let's move on to the psychology of trading. And in fact, this is the most important aspect that will either help you develop or completely destroy your results. It is this that determines whether you will be stuck in a vicious circle, not making progress, or whether you will be able to overcome all the difficulties and improve your results. I have identified three main points around which you need to rework your thinking. section, you should have that " aha" moment where you're like, "Damn, now I get how this works." And only after this can you move on and practice with real money. So, these are the three main points. First, you need to stop thinking that First, you need to stop thinking that a loss is always only bad. We, as humans, are conditioned to perceive any loss as a sign that we are not good enough, that we are doing a bad job, or that we need to fix something to achieve a better result. But this doesn't apply to trading, and you really just have to accept it on faith, no matter how strange it may seem at first. A little later you will understand why. Second. The belief that making mistakes is bad. And it's actually related to the first one. When we are wrong and lose money, it seems to us that we need to immediately make some adjustments and correct our behavior. But in trading this is not the case at all. This notion needs to be turned on its head. And the third misconception is that if a deal was profitable, it means it was good. This is not true at all. And every time we enter the market, only one of two outcomes is possible. Either the price will go up and we will make money, or the price will go down and we will lose. And it seems like , well, it’s super trivial, but it’s precisely how we manage this process that shows what kind of result we will actually have. Every time we enter a trade, we first need to determine how much volume we are willing to risk. Whether it is a certain percentage of capital or a fixed amount of money. Let's say we decide to risk a hundred dollars. This means that if we enter the market here, we need to set a stop loss so that if the price drops to a certain level, our loss will only be $100. Thus, we simultaneously know that if the price goes up, a distance three times greater than our stop loss, then we will receive a profit three times greater than our risk. Let's take the same example. We have one unit of risk, those same 100 bucks, which we bet against a potential profit of three such units. If our forecast is correct, $153 and we want to risk exactly $100 on this trade. What needs to be done for this? Naturally, we take a calculator. The entry price is, say, $153 and the stop-loss level is, for example, $ 150. We subtract the stop-loss value from the entry price . 153 - 150 is 3 dollars. Now we take the amount we are willing to risk (100 dollars) and divide it by three. This works out to approximately 33 units of the asset that we can buy. This ensures that if the price goes against us, we limit our loss to $100 . This way we know exactly what to expect, both if the price goes against us and if the price that if all these points that I'm explaining to you are somehow super complicated for you, then don't get into the market yourself with real money. Start at least with basic training, where the curators will take you by the hand and guide you to the result. You don't even need to pay separately for the trading course; it's already included in the Agmi private club. This is all the most relevant areas of the crypto market are located, where there are traders, signals, retrodrops, and dividend yield. That's all that's possible at the current market stage. Just start with a free tour. A live person will show you what it all looks like inside and answer all your questions. and you will get the whole picture . I left the link in the description or via this QR code. But now let's get back to our strategy. Every time we plan to enter a trade already at the position calculation stage, we must accept the fact that we can make a mistake and lose money. And in order to enter the market and open up this opportunity to make money, we must simply accept that we might be wrong. Many people think that they need to be right every time to make money, but this is 100% not true. Let's assume we made 10 trades. We controlled risk so that each losing trade was equal to minus one conventional unit of risk. Let's say seven trades were unprofitable and three were profitable. For profitable trades we profitable. For profitable trades we received, for example, +5.2, +25 and +3.1. received, for example, +5.2, +25 and +3.1. In total, this is 10.8 risk units. The total losses amounted to -7. The net result is +3.8. In other words, even after losing 70% of the time and winning only 30% of the time, with a risk of $100 per trade, we still came out ahead by $ 380. If we approach trading with the mindset that losing is bad and making mistakes is bad, then we will never put ourselves in situations in the market where we could afford to be right and make money. The losses you incur are, in fact, simply costs. This is the price of being in the market. It is important to understand that the mere fact of making money does not make a deal good or bad. What matters is whether you followed a specific process that can be repeated while keeping risk under control. If you're just entering at random and investing a lot of money, ask yourself: will this strategy work in the long run? And let's consider a situation where you suddenly get lucky and you make some huge trades, then in this situation, in this position, you find yourself in a very advantageous place. That is, you are in a position where you are one step away from making a mistake, because the first one was just an accident. It's all about following the process and being clear . It is these psychological attitudes and mathematical principles of trading that allow you to work. In trading, it's not just about being right. What matters is how much you earn when you're right and how much you lose when you're wrong. It's all about balance. How often do you lose, how much do you earn on average, and how much do you lose on average . If you control your risk and know all your numbers, then you can easily understand whether your strategy is working profit. So now that you understand how positions are built and why it's important to control risk, let's move on to practice. Let's open Trending View and look at the market from a technical analysis perspective. And there are a lot of small details in it, but I have highlighted only four or five of the most important ones, which I myself constantly pay attention to. And now there will be a short but useful course on these things. Let's open a chart with a 5-minute timeframe. Each candle is 5 minutes of price movement. And let's see how I read such a graph. The first thing I always start with is identifying the trend on the chart. Let's be clear. A trend is a section of the market where the price moves in one direction. If it goes up overall, it is an uptrend. If overall it is downwards, it is a downtrend. overall it is downwards, it is a downtrend. trend lines. I find areas on the chart where the price bounces off some invisible level. That is, we return again to the level of supply and demand. If I see such key points and draw a line along the lows from which the price bounces, then as long as the price stays above this point, the uptrend continues. And you may have noticed that at one point the price finally dropped below this trend line, then made a small rebound upwards, but then continued to decline, that is, the trend changed to a downward one. So here we had an uptrend, and then it went down. I would also like to point out that if the price bounces off this trend line several times, then breaks through it downwards and returns to test it further from below, then this point very often becomes a key level from which a large downward movement can be caught after a trend change . Trend lines show areas that price is likely to fall to and bounce back from to continue the current move. And after a breakout, they indicate the level from which the price will likely bounce in the opposite direction and continue moving downwards. We can use all of this to build positions with the expectation that the price will move strongly in one direction and will not break through the level in the other. Considering that a graph is a visual representation of crowd behavior, there is another tool that will help us analyze the graph. This is a Fibonacci correction. Here's how it works. Let's assume the graph is moving up. We select the Fibonacci correction tool and stretch it from the beginning of this trend to the highest point of the trend. And you may notice that if a trend corrects, it often pulls back to around the 50% level, after which the upward movement continues. Also, the price often reaches the level of 61.8%. This is the well-known golden ratio - a number that is found in nature, in the structure of shells, plants, trees, even in the proportions of the face. And from this level, growth often resumes. And we can build our positions around these key levels. But let's get back to our schedule. We identified upward and downward trends there. Let's say we want to analyze this trend and find important levels for it . We set the FIBO grid from the maximum to the minimum. And now let's see how the price will react to the obtained levels. As the chart developed, a minimum was formed . Then the price rose and clearly bounced down from the 61.8 level. It was from this that a powerful downward movement followed. Another cool element of technical analysis that I use when analyzing a chart is the so-called Fair Value Gap. Such gaps can be seen literally everywhere on the chart. These are large candles that make sharp, impulsive movements. For example, here and there. I can turn on the Fair Value Gap indicator and it will automatically mark these gaps on the chart. Why do I even track them? As you can see, the price often returns to the area of ​​these gaps and makes a strong reverse movement there. For example, here a Fair Value Gap has formed. Then the price went up, returned to this area and reacted from it, after which it went up again. Elsewhere, a gap has developed. How to identify such a gap on a graph? A sequence of three candles in a row is needed. rising or falling, in which the shadow of the first candle and the shadow of the third candle do not overlap each other during the movement of the second candle. Conversely, if the low of the first candle and the high of the third do not overlap, a bearish Fair Value gap occurs, after which the price is likely to go further down. These are the kinds of things I use to find these important areas on the chart. You understand that we cannot know exactly where the market will go, but we can accurately find entry points where the risk is clear and at least somewhat predictable, at least we have at least some data, and only this helps us make more profitable decisions. Of course, we've only scratched the surface, but we can't cover everything in one video, starting from scratch. But even this gives you a you can gradually move forward and consolidate this in practice. So let's get to the fun part: how to create your own trading strategy and test whether it actually works. And here is the sequence that we follow when building any strategy. First, an idea, a concept based on our observations. For example, we noticed a certain pattern on the graph. We collect such ideas and track general market trends. Second, based on these observations, we compile a set of rules. Third. Then comes the evaluation of the results. We determine the percentage of cases in which the expected outcome occurs and calculate the average profit per trade compared to the average loss. Fourth. And finally, we draw a conclusion about the profitability of the strategy. Based on the collected data, we decide whether the strategy will be profitable or not. Now let's take a simple example of how you can test your strategy. Let's say you have an idea. Go to the Bybit exchange, click on your profile icon, then on the demo tray. And here we can test it painlessly. First, we work with the chart, determine the take and stop-loss, and then open a position and look at the result. Then all the results need to be recorded in the trade journal and the strategy assessed for profitability. You need to open 10, 20, 30, 50 such transactions to really understand whether the game is worth the candle. Once again, I want to emphasize that mistakes are possible and even necessary, but the most important thing is that over the long term we must be in the black. And only when we are convinced that our strategy is already really working, we can move on to the main account and trade with real money. Now let's assume that we are confident in our strategy and actually want to enter a trade in the crypto, I will again go to BBbit and select Sol USDT, Solana USDT there, but this time in real trading mode. In limit and market order options. If you want to select limit. If you need to enter or exit at the current market price, select a market order. But now we will use the limited one. detail, the video would stretch for tens of hours. So let's look at the main points now. Here is our entry price. The much we need to trade to risk, say, a hundred dollars. To do this, we need to subtract the stop-loss price from the entry price and then divide 100 by the resulting number. This will be our volume. Then we multiply it by the entry price and get the price in USDT. Without leverage, we would have to buy over 100 salanas at a cost of approximately $176, which is about $18,000. If you don't have that amount in your account, and that's okay, you won't be able to afford that amount. That 's why we use leverage. We know that if the stop is hit, we will only lose $100. And if the price reaches the take profit, we will earn approximately 300. We confirm our order. And so you can start with a small capital, but still count on significant profits. Of course, provided that you are confident in your strategy and act within the framework of the approach described. One such transaction can cover 10 household ones, so even if there is a series of losses later, the session will still remain profitable. Just wait for the market to do its Just wait for the market to do its job. M.
