Most people stare at crypto charts like it’s the Matrix: lines, candles, confusion.



But if you actually want to make money trading, you need to learn to read the story behind the chart.

Start with the basics: every candle is a battle between buyers and sellers. Long wicks show rejection, fat bodies show strength, and big candles with volume usually mean something big is brewing.

Zoom out to the 4H or daily: that’s where real trends live. Stop trying to trade the 1-minute chart unless you want anxiety and losses.

Learn to spot trends: higher highs = bullish, lower lows = bearish, sideways chop = stay patient. Support and resistance are your map: price reacts at the same zones for a reason.

Volume is your lie detector. No volume? No conviction. Breakouts? Don’t trust the first candle. Look for confirmation or retests: avoid the fakeout trap.

Indicators like RSI, EMAs, MACD? Helpful, but not gospel. Price action comes first. And those patterns, fibs, trendlines? They work because everyone believes they do. You’re not trading science, you’re trading psychology.

Want to stop trading blind and actually build an edge? Learn one concept at a time, journal your trades, and practice daily.
