What's the best introduction book for trading, technical analysis, stuff like that?
I've started with crypto at least for now, mostly doing day trading stuff.

Reading books won't help you with that shit because its literally just gambling. Show me one TA crypto "analyst" who is consistently right. Gamble if you want but don't pretend like you're doing something else.

Solid advice, every investor worth his salt ever basically says the same thing pick two or three solid companies or investments you like and continuously pump money into them as long as you like them. Reap the rewards of compound interest.
That's it.

There is no such book. Imagine you have found a way to turn any metal into gold, would you write a book or share your method with others? You have to rely on your own judgment and seek clues and hints here and there.

Jack Schwager Market Wizards is a good book on traders philosophy.

Buy early (there are websites that list newly added tokens on uniswap - beware rugpulls), hodl for a couple months/years, arbitrage (requires programming knowledge - thanks to aave and dydx you can leverage the difference between pools practically for free and just pay gas), buy->stake (defi), DCA; those are four main ways you can earn with crypto. Day trade is going to only cost you money. Swingers get the rope.

TA does not make sense just logically. there's no real reason these patterns should repeat. research crypto, wait until a good project comes out, buy it early and hold.

I've been trading for years, burnt through two accounts starting out and the past few years have made consistent gains in both stonks and crypto.

most important lessons

Trade off 4 hour and day candles, anything lower is retarded

You'll get wrecked day trading just don't

never go all in, set a maximum amount that you're comfortable with losing, If you're having trouble sleeping your positions are too big. I usually have 5-20 positions open in crypto my cap is $2k USD, in stonks its $10k.

you'll undoubtedly ignore one of those 3 rules and burn through your account, every newfag progresses in a similiar way

Permabull (losses everything), perma bear (never makes anything) , emotionless robot (what you need to be to trade)

Do not day trade. You will lose all your money until you have at least a basic understanding of price action, and even if you understand price action and can do proper TA, it might take you months or years to be able to properly apply it to your trading and become profitable at it. I'm sure you're not going to listen to my advice, so at the very least bookmark my post in the archive so you can come back to it when you inevitably burn your account. To learn TA start by watching all of the videos on this channel:

https://www.youtube.com/c/MarketTradersTV/videos
https://www.youtube.com/c/TR4D3R10/videos

For the time being, I'd recommend you to avoid lower timeframes altogether and stick to higher timeframes while you learn about TA. Weekly, daily and 4h. Buy support, sell resistance. Use stop losses.

this is one month of trading with approximately 800 usd.
using ONLY ONE TA STRATEGY consistently in crypto
just because you tried trading with the rsi on the 5 minute chart 2 times and lost does not mean everyone is as dumb as you.

what most people dont get is this:
its about the process.
its about discipline and sticking to your plan. as soon as you change strategy 5 times per week like a faggot you will lose because you have zero consistency. like a girl who can not decide what to wear.

>> No.27347546

>>27347301
backtest over the most amount of time possible over DAILY OR WEEKLY CHARTS. if backtest is good even if changing slightly the values it means your strategy is fairly robust
???
FUCKING GO!!! APPLY THE STRATEGY

just buy low and sell high, that's it
don't buy pumps unless you are extremely confident it will keep going up and don't buy dumps unless the project is legit

cont.
another thing.
stop losses are not as important when you have a system.
BUT when you trade shorts it is almost imperative to have some stop loss, even if wide it will still protect you from the deadly short squeeze.

executing a long only strategy obviously does not have this problem.

The rest is garbage filler or commentary from other useless analysts.
