#CryptoCharts101 #CryptoCharts101 โ A beginnerโs guide to reading and understanding crypto charts like a pro ๐๐ง
๐งฑ 1. Candlestick Basics
Each candlestick shows:
Open, High, Low, Close (OHLC) for a specific time period.
Green (or white) = price went up, Red (or black) = price went down.
โณ 2. Timeframes Matter
1-minute to 15-minute: Good for scalping/day trading.
1-hour to 4-hour: Swing trading.
Daily/Weekly: Long-term trend analysis.
Always zoom out to see the bigger picture.
๐ 3. Trend Lines
Draw lines connecting higher lows in uptrends or lower highs in downtrends.
Helps identify breakout and breakdown points.
๐ 4. Support and Resistance
Support: Price level where buying interest is strong (a floor).
Resistance: Level where selling pressure kicks in (a ceiling).
Price tends to bounce between these zones.
