Learn to Read the Markets Like a Pro ๐๐ง
Crypto moves fast โ but charts never lie. Whether you're trading $BTC, $ETH, or altcoins, understanding how to read crypto charts is essential for timing your moves and protecting your capital.
Hereโs your crash course ๐
๐น 1. Candlestick Charts
Each candle shows price action in a time frame (1m, 1h, 1D, etc.):
๐ข Green = price closed higher than it opened
๐ด Red = price closed lower
Wicks show highs and lows โ pay attention to long wicks = volatility!
๐น 2. Volume
High volume = strong conviction.
Low volume = weak or fake move.
๐ Look for volume spikes on breakouts for confirmation.
๐น 3. Trendlines & Support/Resistance
Draw horizontal lines where price often bounces (support) or gets rejected (resistance).
๐ Uptrend = higher highs + higher lows
๐ Downtrend = lower highs + lower lows
๐น 4. Moving Averages (MAs)
Smooth out price data to show trend direction.
50 EMA = short-term trend
200 EMA = long-term trend
๐ข Golden Cross = bullish (50 MA crosses above 200 MA)
๐ด Death Cross = bearish
๐น 5. RSI (Relative Strength Index)
Measures if an asset is overbought (>70) or oversold (<30).
๐ Use it to avoid buying tops or selling bottoms.
๐น 6. MACD (Moving Average Convergence Divergence)
A momentum tool that shows trend changes.
When the MACD line crosses above the signal line = buy signal
Below = sell signal
๐ก Pro Tip: Combine tools โ never trade based on one indicator. Look for confluence across multiple signals.
๐ Charts = Cryptoโs Body Language. Learn to read it before you speak its language.
