4 rules I wish someone told me on day one
Never invest more than you can lose. Crypto can drop 80% in a bear cycle.
Past performance is not predictive. Indicators are probabilities, not guarantees.
Volume confirms price. A breakout without volume is usually a fakeout.
The trend is your friend. Trade with the EMA200, not against it.
Theory is cheap. Practice is everything.
Apply what you learned: pick a crypto, run the indicators, compare your read against ours.

Essential crypto glossary
The words you'll see in every thread, video and headline. Knowing them saves hours of googling.
- HODL
- Strategy of holding crypto long-term regardless of market swings. Originated from a typo of "HOLD" on a Bitcoin forum in 2013.
- ATH / ATL
- All-Time High and All-Time Low: highest/lowest historical price reached by a crypto. Breaking ATH usually attracts media attention.
- FOMO
- Fear Of Missing Out. Fear of missing an investment opportunity, leading to impulsive entries usually near market tops.
- FUD
- Fear, Uncertainty and Doubt. Negative information (real or not) that creates fear. Often precedes drops or is used as a manipulation tool.
- WHALE
- Investor holding a large amount of a crypto (>0.1% of circulating supply), able to influence price significantly with their orders.
- DYOR
- Do Your Own Research. Never buy just because someone recommended it.
- DCA
- Dollar Cost Averaging. Strategy of investing fixed amounts at regular intervals regardless of price. Reduces timing risk.
- KYC
- Know Your Customer. Mandatory identity verification on regulated exchanges, usually requires ID and proof of address.
How to buy your first cryptocurrency
~15 minutes. Minimum cost: $10-$20. Follow these 5 steps in order.
- 1
Pick a regulated exchange
Binance, Coinbase, Kraken or KuCoin. Verify legal operation in your country and review fees.
- 2
Complete KYC
Upload ID/passport and proof of address. Verification typically takes minutes to 24h.
- 3
Deposit funds
Bank transfer (cheaper, 1-2 days) or card (faster, 1-3% fee). Start small to test the full flow.
- 4
Buy your first crypto
Find BTC/USD or ETH/USDT. Use a limit order to fix entry price instead of paying market spread.
- 5
Move to your personal wallet
For larger amounts, transfer to a hardware wallet (Ledger/Trezor) or reputable mobile wallet (Trust, Metamask). ALWAYS verify the address before confirming.
