I think you're right. I suck at trading. But in my defense, I am looking to buy darkcoins for a good price and hold until the 25th at least.
You don't suck at trading.
You're just inexperienced. Sh*t, I'm inexperienced and I've been doing it for months. I still find it very difficult and stressful to day trade even though I understand the charts.
The thing is, that's not enough - you need to know about what's going on in the background, what type of market it is if it's slow or fast, pump and dump or long term growth, all kinds of things.
It also ruins your family life because you've got to run from the dinner table to your PC just as the 1 hour averages look like they might be crossing over or whatever and all lights are green on your dashboard. Not a great hobby if you're in a relationship.
Do you know the best way to learn ? Just accept the fact that it's going to cost something and trade with a tiny amount that you PLAN to loose. Just get into the market and see how long you can survive. Then do it again a week later and see if you can survive longer. All the time just trading tiny symbolic amounts. I did that in the Dogue market with about 0.05 Bitcoin, I managed to grow it to about 0.2 (500% gain) and then blew it all in a single bad trade.
If I had been doing that with my full holdings I'd be out of cryptos. So best to go to nursery first.
