Newbie here who is hoping to get bitcoin soon to start trading! I know quite a lot about crypto because I have spent every possible moment studying while being a stay at home mom, listening to podcasts while Im at playground or do housework etc.
You mustn't get Bitcoin to start trading. You can get alts to commence too. If you're so desirous of trading Bitcoin, you can get Bitcoin pairs with alts you've and you're good to go. BTW, it's good to have more women (moms) show interest in trading instead of being full time housewives alone. This is hoping that you're truly a woman because there's no way to prove that in an anonymous forum like this 🧐
Im selling an iPhone here and asked for a loan so I can start my trading journey (hopefully soon) but the trading strategies got me thinking. How well do you define that for yourself? Or think about it? write down or on the wall or whatever?
Every trader has a preconceived strategy until they get to the market and the market decides otherwise. What will eventually form anyone's trading strategy is what they've on ground while trading. Take notes, make corrections and fine tune what works for you and stick to them.
You talked so much about DCA, sorry I don't think DCA should be considered a trading strategy. You may want to see it as entry pattern, not strategy.
