What is trading?

  • A basic economic concept involving the buying and selling of stocks, commodities, currency pairs, or other instruments, with the intention to make a profit

What are cryptocurrencies?

  • Digital currencies

  • Typically used as a medium of exchange

How do I profit from these? From trading and cryptocurrencies

  • We trade them as pairs, looking at the change in value between the two (e.g. BTC/USD)

  • Profits are generated by buying the actual cryptocurrency/asset at a lower price and selling at a higher price within a relatively short period of time (exchange trading)

  • You can also profit with price going not only up, but also going down (leverage trading)

  • Markets are open 24/7, 365 days/year

*along your journey you will learn to identify what kind of trading suits you, your personality and your desired lifestyle best.


Exchange Trading

  • You want the value to go UP in price! (buy low, sell high)

  • You buy the asset/cryptocurrency

  • Purchasing cryptocurrencies and holding until the value increases to the target price

    • We do this with STRATEGY AND RISK MANAGEMENT (not sporadic!)


*what tools do I need for this?

Crypto Wallets, Crypto Exchanges

Always #DYOR


Leverage Trading

  • You don’t care if the price is going UP or going DOWN; you care about ‘forecasting’ correctly the direction in which a currency’s value will go (strengthen or weaken) relative to another currency (e.g. BTC/USD)

  • You become in possession of a “contract” (NOT the actual cryptocurrency/asset)

  • You purchase the contract and hold until the value reaches a target price

    • We do this with STRATEGY and RISK MANAGEMENT (not sporadic!)


*what tools do I need for this?

MT4 and/or Crypto Exchange (w/ leverage/futures trading)

Always #DYOR
