In post basic experience creating an edge will give you the greatest leverage, keep it simple, there is little need to complicate things; test(back/forward) until you find a system you enjoy using and has worked over at least 200 trades.

ever come across a chart like the one of USDJPY from today? [live stream from this day | Trade Log Here]

were you thinking like:

• WOW 132 Pips (1320 points)
• that would have been so much money i could have made
• such an easy trade, but why didn’t I take it?
• if i just held on longer that would be such a large gain

Trade Bitcoin the Right Way

To say recent history has been an emotional roller-coaster for Bitcoin would be an understatement!

The market opened 2017 at a price of $966.0 and wrapped up the year at $18,960, carving out a whopping 1861.51% gain.

As of writing, 17,290,900 million bitcoins are in circulation, against a presently capped limit of 21 million.
