Maybe someone expierenced or Ben can help me with this - I am having real trouble grasping whether to be trading against BTC or USDT? Many seem to say BTC, but I have been in situations when trading alt coins against BTC and they are 4 % up yet I have lost money because both were down against USD.
Is there any simple rule of thumb as to when to trade against USD and BTC?
Maybe always trade against USD unless BTC is in Bull Mode /?
Bear market trade in usd, bull maket trade in btc.
this the best advice you can get from your trade. since you are a newbie and you find it difficult on how you can earn from trading against BTC in a normal market. the idea behind trading with btc in a bull market is to gain in double fashion. as the token price increases, BTC Price also increase. you earn doubled in price as well. the reason to tread in btc during Bull market.
