When you first enter the crypto space, it’s easy to get lost in terms like scalping, swing trading, or HODL.
Here’s a brief overview of the main types of trading:
🔴 Scalping
Maximally quick trades – from seconds to minutes.
Goal – to catch minimal price movements and make a profit on volume.
Volatility – your friend, but also the main risk.
🟠 Day Trading
All trades are closed within one day.
You are not affected by overnight gaps and news outside the session.
Discipline and experience are needed to avoid losing your deposit on impulse.
🟡 Swing Trading
Trades last for several days or weeks.
Ideal if you know how to read charts and catch trend reversals.
Less stress, but more patience.
🟢 Position Trading
Essentially investments: you enter and hold an asset for months.
Perfect for those who believe in the growth of specific coins (and don’t want to stare at charts 24/7).
HODL – this is where it belongs.
🔵 Algorithmic Trading
Here, code trades. You write a bot – it executes trades based on specified strategies.
Trendy, technical, but not without risks and bugs.
The choice depends on your time, character, and goals.
The main thing is not to jump between styles every 3 days 😉
