📊 Not a trader? No worries: here's how to read the crypto market like a pro (without complicating your life)
Many believe that to understand the market you need 6 monitors, a thousand charts, and a crystal ball.
Spoiler: no. You just need to know what to look at and why it matters.
Here are 4 things that any crypto-curious person should check daily:
🔹 1. Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D)
If it rises, the market is seeking refuge in BTC.
If it falls, it might be altcoin season.
👉 You can view it for free on TradingView.
🔹 2. Trading Volume
Price isn't everything: volume shows if there's real interest.
Rise with volume = strength.
Rise without volume = likely a visual deception.
🔹 3. Fear & Greed Index
An emotional thermometer for the market.
Extreme fear = opportunity (many sell cheap).
Extreme greed = caution (everyone is buying out of FOMO).
📉 You can view it on alternative.me or CoinMarketCap.
🔹 4. Macro and Political News
Yes, even if you don't want to. Fed decisions, wars, elections… everything affects the crypto market.
🔔 Tip: follow key news, but don't live anxiously for every headline.
