Re: What would be your recommendations when trading crypto?

Even though, I've been several years buying, selling and even holding Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies there is one thing that I need to master yet and that is the ability to trade effectively any crypto in order to maximize profits.

Since crypto is highly volatile (especially alt coins), there is a good chance to make decent profit via trading.

Any good recommendations or resources that you could recommend me in order to trade cryptocurrencies effectively? (books, or any other resource)

I know one key rule which is buy low, and sell high but most of the times I end up loosing more than what I have invested initially instead of maximizing profits.

We all end up loosing in trading because our emotions get the better of us. When the prices go up very fast we tend to chase it and buy at whatever price there is available because we are fearful that the "train will leave" without us. Then to only see that a fall in price happens making our trade a losing one. So one trait that would be good to have as a trader is to be calm in the face of the volatile nature of cryptocurrencies.

that is why you should never trade in your life because you are an emotional guy.

a trader should delete any emotional thinking out of his mind and instead starts thinking more logically and like a machine.

That is easier said than done. Even professional traders make bad trades because they also get affected emotionally. We are only human so we cannot really "switch off" our emotions.

and actually that is why many traders use bots for trading because that would eliminate the emotion part.

This is a very good suggestion. Using bots would automate your trade and follow all your orders even in the face of volatility. The limitation of this is your trades will become too "robotic". Some traders trade by feeling the market. It is an art form to them and it has to come with a little finesse. Bots will only ruin their style.
