[Music] Hey T is here, and this is the channel for those who are passionate about growing. And today I'm going to explain to you once and for all how you do something that nobody explains on the internet, which is how you trade futures in digital currencies, the famous cryptos. How you profit from rising and falling currencies, and you're no longer afraid. Bitcoin is at a billion dollars, if it falls to zero dollars, you'll do bananas, as we usually say on Instagram, as we say here on YouTube too. How you do bananas, even if you're starting from scratch, even if you have no experience at all. Or you already understand this subject, I don't know if you can trade your bitcoins or your other digital currencies through ETFs or on your IB3 broker, but now I'm ETFs or on your IB3 broker, but now I'm going to take you from the very basic guide to the advanced one. You can be sure this is one of the markets that will create the most millionaires in the next 5 years. Over the years, especially if you use the strategy we're talking about, you'll learn how to create your account, so many things here that I'll even look at how you'll send money from your account (using your CPF) to the brokerage for maximum security. How will we transfer this money from your currency, which we call fiat currency, in this case the real here in Brazil, to the so-called SDT, which is the crypto dollar? How do we analyze charts? How do we configure the indicator? How do you set up your first trades on the world's largest brokerage in this area? And of course, have results like these! So all this dedicating a maximum of 15 minutes a day. Now we're going to step one, which is approaching. First thing, you'll go to a website called binance.com. Binance has this look here. So the first thing you'll do is register. You'll put your email and phone number here, accept all the cookies, and agree to create an account. Then you'll go to the next step. After you've put all that in, you'll receive an email and you'll have to... Answering something called "Know Your Client" is you to operate on Binance. Binance, as other English speakers do, speaks better. Okay, now we're going to the second step, and we're going to jump to a step where my account on the broker is already open. You know children and say, "If you get lost, we'll meet here," or when we go to Disney, we say, "If you get lost, we 'll meet here." So this is the initial screen in case you get lost; it's what we call the control panel. So how do you access the control panel? You go here, click on "control panel," and you'll arrive at this place. The first thing I want you to do is set the language, which is this little world here in the upper right corner. I want you to set it to Portuguese from Portugal. There will be Brazilian Portuguese and there will be Portuguese from Portugal; set it to Portuguese from Portugal. This is very important. So, the next step, after that's done, you'll go here to the upper left corner, which is what we call the header, and you'll put here... Cryptocurrency, you see, there will be four alternatives. Fiat currency is the Real. So you're going to deposit the fiat currency, and here you'll see the currency you'll deposit with. There are a lot of currencies here, but we'll stick with BRL, which is the Brazilian Real. And then we'll have some alternatives to put in the Jinin, the Banana, the Real. So we're going to put in Pix because it will be free of charge and it will be immediate. Okay, so we come here and put in Pix. I'm going to press continue. I'm doing this very slowly. Then you're going to put in an amount to transfer. This amount is the amount you're going to transfer in Reais, and it has to be exactly the amount you want to transfer. If you put in an amount that isn't the same, it will be a problem, as we say here in Rio de Janeiro. I don't know if you know, but I'm from Rio Grande do Sul, even though I'm from Rio, so let's will generate a Pixel code. Okay, you're going to take your cell phone and point it at the screen. You see here? See, it says here, "You can copy the code and authorize only deposits from a bank account linked to your own CPF." In other words, only deposits from accounts linked to your CPF. So you can't transfer money from your brother-in-law's account, your dog's account, your employee's account, or your wife's account; it has to be your own account. After that's done, we 'll go back to the Control Panel. The control panel is there, all nice and tidy. What 's the next step? Remember, we're back to square one. You're going to click here, in the upper left corner. You see I'm putting my little hand on assets? You'll go to "Sight," it's "Sight," and then you'll look for BRL. You'll look for BRL. You see I have a lot of currency here, right? You know why I have a lot of currency? You know that story about Bitcoin being worth $1? Did you know that Bitcoin was worth $1? Today it's worth $0.00? Let's say another one of those happens, so I put $1 here, a lot of I have to look for the BRL here. I have to look for the BRL here. BRL here. BRL my son BRL here, look, you're seeing it, BRL is appearing there for you, good, leave a like on this video here, this video here is gold, okay guys, so I'm going to come and click with the left button of my mouse on convert, then I have to convert convert, then I have to convert d to what, to the thing called USDT, which is USDT United States Dollar, which is the crypto dollar. So I have to transfer 0.2, which is my balance I think. Do I have money for more? I'll put 10 cents, 10 cents, let's see, the dollar is coming out at R$5.90. So I think it's possible to get 0.8, let's see if it will work, if I take too long it won't accept, okay, if I take too long it won't accept, I confirmed, look, successful, so I just look, successful, so I just bought 1 D for R$5.90, 215, okay, great, what do I do now? Remember, every time I want to go back to square one, Control Panel, now we have money in the most used stablecoin on Binance Futures, which is SDT, it's a digital dollar, okay, this will serve Like the currency of your securities bank, which in this case is cryptocurrencies, let me introduce you to another character: TradingView. Why am I going to introduce you to TradingView? Because you'll come to this free website, the header will have "Product," you'll hover your mouse over it, and you 'll find super charts, and now you 'll have the financial market assets plotted here. See this little drawing? This little drawing is called a candlestick. Okay, and it will tell the past history of all the assets. Let's go straight to what we're interested in. So you see that I took the mouse, went to the upper left corner, clicked on " Search," "Symbol," and I'm going to put BTC Search," "Symbol," and I'm going to put BTC US SDT. Remember, BTC is Bitcoin. SDT is US SDT. Remember, BTC is Bitcoin. SDT is because I want this, it means you've taken a giant step. Look at the alarm there, from someone who has already evolved. This is the alarm of someone who has already evolved. This was a huge step because now you know that if you want to work with BTC, you put BTC or SDT. If I'm talking about EU, which is the second most famous cryptocurrency, is the second most famous cryptocurrency, ETH USDT if I want... Solana sol usdt has more than 10,000 different cryptocurrencies. Okay, so let's stay here with BTC, which is the most famous. I'll go there and click on it. I clicked. So you can see that the thing was drawn here. Now, what does this drawing mean? This drawing here means that the first price happened at this point where the little finger is. The last price of this period is here. We have the maximum, which is the tip of the candle, and we have the minimum price, which is this bottom tip of the candle. Okay, but each of these periods is equivalent to 3 months. I want you to click here, with this button in the upper left corner, you're going to look for a day, okay, and you're going to put it on a day. What we just did here is what I call a time frame. Okay, time frame. You can see that I took the magnifying glass in the left corner of the screen here, and I'm going to zoom in. It will look exactly like that. Now we have that little drawing, several of each one of these little drawings here, a day that started at 9 pm and ended at... At 9 PM, when this is empty or black, it means it opened here, high. When it's red, it means it opened up here, had a high, had a low, and closed here. So it can have various shapes, okay, various shapes. This will be telling the story of the price on a given day and the previous days' closing. So from this, you can have this timeframe on the Daily chart every four days. And then it will form a different pattern; you'll have it at four different times. And then we'll agree that we'll only pay attention to the Daily chart. Okay, now we're going to move on to something else called an indicator. Remember, this can be done with Bitcoin, Etho, Solana, among called an indicator. What is an indicator? It indicates but doesn't determine why we're going to buy and sell. Am I buying because I I selling because I think the trend will be downward? Am this upward trend has gone too far? It's going to start falling. Am I buying because I think the downtrend has been too intense up? We need to find a strategy. What are we going to buy and sell? There are many people who lose money because they're buying and selling like crazy, just because they want to do something, and that's very dangerous. So basic indicators here. The first indicator I'm going to show you is to write here, oh, again, come here with the mouse here, indicators. I'm going to write moving average, indicators. I'm going to write moving average, or Moving Average, which you, who are already fluent in English, will know, right? So we have here, oh, moving average. lot of moving averages. You see, when the averages are rising, the price rises. could be an indicator. It doesn't just have this average, so it has the whole basis of the indicator. So I have this little machine next to this eye that I can click and period average. It will take the average of the 20 closings, 50 periods, which is the average of the 50 closings, and it will draw this average of the 100 200 I can change it here if I want to 70, that means the drawing will change. Okay, so I'll give you a tip here: each asset will have an ideal way of looking at all this, or I can adjust this here. I'll remove these averages and keep only one average. There are several ways we can play with this. Now I'll introduce you to another indicator, which is the famous relative strength index. What does the relative strength index tell you? It tells you the following: Look, this asset has more or less strength than the market. So, above 50 means the trend is upward; below 50, the trend is downward. When it's above 70, here it is now at 60, right? It can be telling us, look, it's getting strong, it 's getting strong. And here we can put it in several different periods, so you see that the average of the downward. This can help us make decisions, my friends, make decisions. So, another indicator that I presented to you, let's move on to another very famous indicator, the band. you can see it here on the machine, right? You draw an average and a standard deviation. What is the standard deviation? It's a bowling channel, right? A bowling channel there, and then you give it a band to work with. The idea is that maybe this band indicates a limit that the price has reached, and then it will always return to the average when it hits this band. This can be a strategy. Look here, I'll increase it to three. So, look, it's very difficult to see the price outside the band, right? So, when it hits the band, it may be a moment to bet against the direction of the price. Is it better to bet at three? Is it better at four? Is it better at 2.5? That's a question you should ask yourself. Okay, so all these indicators generate opportunities that indicate something to us, but I personally decide to use this explosive indicator, you see here that its name is CH Wole, right? And it has an ideal adjustment of 30, it can be 40. I say this for... My students, and it's very simple, you can see here that when the green dotted line is below the prices it shows an upward trend, and there are also times, look, when the red dotted line indicates a downward trend. So, you know that question people ask, "How do I know the right time to enter and exit?" This indicator here, which is the DEO indicator, tells you that. You can make a lot of money with this. So, it's something very valuable that I'm sharing with you, and if I were you, I'd already give it a like out of gratitude. So, I've given you this great gift, just so you just so you know, this method for 10 coins generated a profit that quadrupled some people's money in just two and a half years. I'm talking serious, something substantial. But how do I actually do the operations, buy, sell, transform this knowledge into profit in my pocket? I have to go back to Binan, remember? I have to go I use to show my students that you don't need a lot of money to profit. You'll come back to this header again, okay? Okay, so I'm going to show you trade. Okay, you'll stay here on this account, so this environment will appear after you answer a questionnaire—a questionnaire, for your own protection, to show you have two or more brain cells, you understand? So, how do we learn things here? You see, when I take my mouse and put it in this upper left corner, above this name, it shows " search." Let's put "Dodgecoin," right? From Elom Music, so it's showing up, from G US SDT. I clicked on it with the mouse. Okay, so the chart that we see on TradingView is also here on Binance, but the explosive indicator doesn't appear on Binance, so that's why you have to look at TradingView. Okay, so you're here on the futures tab, which is where you bet on the rise or fall of trends, which is the a trade, what you have to do first is make sure you're means you can never lose more than you put into a trade, and you can determine that before anything else, okay? So it's always in isolation. Another thing is... To determine leverage, then leverage can go up to 75, it can be at once. What does that mean? 10 times leverage. Let's say I'm going to buy a property worth 1 million from Caixa Econômica. I only have 100, and the property costs 1 million. That means the leverage is 10 times. If I'm going to buy a property for 500,000 and I have 100,000, the leverage is five times. If the property is 200,000 and I have 100,000, the leverage is two times. So leverage is extremely important for your survival in the market or for your success, and that's where knowledge comes in. Many greedy or very fearful people, these polarizations, these extremes are very dangerous for those who are investing without knowledge and without the help of a mentor. So I've already taught you what isolation is and also what leverage is. So how do you set up an operation? of order you're going to place. I suggest you always trade with market orders. you always trade with market orders. is selling cheaper and you'll sell to whoever is buying more expensive. It will always be the best alternative. And how do you determine the size of here and move it to the side. You see the cost down here will change. Okay, but before doing all that, you have to do something else. You have to go down here to the bottom right corner. You click on "transfer." Why? Because you 'll have to take your money from the spot account. Remember that you converted BRL to USDT? You'll have to take that USDT that's in the spot environment and transfer it to the futures environment. That's why it says "from spot to futures" here. And the currency is the currency you bought with your BRL, which are your Reais. Remember that I transferred 89 cents? Here's the money. So I'm going to click "max," but before doing that, I want to... Let me show you something. I have a balance of 10,869.98 in the account. I have a balance of 10,869.98 in the account. transfer this balance, it will increase. So, look, I'm going to transfer it, you see, it went to 10,857.87 because now I don't have any more balance to transfer. What is this 4,499 here? These are my open profits that I haven't closed yet. So, there are these open profit positions, 23% profit. These are profits where I 'm profiting from the price drop of these coins. Let's understand now what I can do here on the DOD, right? I'm going to simulate an operation where I'm going to buy, and what am I going to expect from this coin? I'm going to wait for it to go up in price, that's why I buy. If I thought the price would fall, I would sell. And then I would monetize that drop. I know counterintuitive for you who are listening for the first time, but you can monetize the drop of something. So I'm going to give an example here, where I'm going to buy, okay? So I clicked. In the buy order sent, a market buy order was executed. So now you're seeing here, this position is open, this position is open, it's generating profit and loss, profit and loss, this position is open, okay, if I want to close this position, how do market, order sent, market sell order executed, I'm no longer in the buy order, okay, let's now find another currency, I'll invent any currency here, okay, S Sushi, Sushi, so Sushi is here, I believe Sushi will fall, I'm inventing a reason here, so I checked if it's in isolation, leverage, I'll put 2x market order, I'll change the cost of the order, and now I'm betting on the fall, okay, then I go there and click sell, short bar, order sent, market sell order executed, it's here, Sushi, okay, I want to close this order, click market, the order is finished. Okay, I want to trade the Trump currency here, I'll go up here, Trump, it's there, Trump, the SDT, so I'm looking at Trump here, if I If you want to bet on Trump rising, I check if it's in isolation, leverage 2x the market, I go there and buy Trump, bought it, it's here, Trump already... I don't know if you know, but there's also the currency of Trump's wife, Melania, Melania is here, again in isolation, I'll put the leverage I consider for this operation, market order, and then I put the size of the operation, I sold, now I'm betting on the fall of Trump's wife's currency, so here, I have Trump and I have Melania, these two positions, okay? So this is the basics for you to place an order, to make your order that I showed you here, I showed you how to create an account, how to send the money, convert to SDT, analyze the indicators in TradingView, set up the operation. What are the common mistakes people make that fail here? People, operating without studying, operating without a mentor, operating without a method, operating with too much leverage. What is the potential of this? Profits like this, more than 1000%, capital more than 10 times. Sometimes you put in R$ 1,000, you can get R$10,000. Oh, but look, this operation of over 500% means that if you put in R$ 1,000, you won R$50,000. That's a car, a trip to Disney with the family! Of course, everyone has to respect their own size and their own pocket, that's why the mentor gives guidance.
