- 1:12have an understanding of two main
- 1:14methods that can be used when building a
- 1:17trading strategy in this video we'll be
- 1:19looking at two main concepts technical
- 1:22analysis and fundamental analysis
- 1:25technical analysis is referred to as
- 1:27charting this type of analysis aims to
- 1:29predict future market behavior based on
- 1:32previous price actions and volume data
- 1:35technical analysis is strictly focused
- 1:37on historical price action it's used to
- 1:40examine asset price fluctuations and
- 1:43volume data traders use technical
- 1:45analysis in an attempt to identify
- 1:47trends and favorable trading
- 1:49opportunities it's like pattern
- 1:52recognition the base technical analysts
- 1:54have seen countless scenarios play out
- 1:57multiple times so when a familiar
- 1:59situation starts appearing on a chart
- 2:02analysts feel confident that they know
- 2:04what's going to happen next technical
- 2:06analysis is basically the study of an
- 2:08assets current and previous price the
- 2:10main thought behind technical analysis
- 2:12is the fluctuations in the price are not
- 2:14random and that they evolve into trends
- 2:18over time at the core technical analysis
- 2:20is the analysis of supply and demand
- 2:23which are represented by the overall
- 2:25market sentiment in other words the
- 2:28price of an asset is a reflection of the
- 2:30opposing selling and buying forces these
- 2:33forces are closely related to the
- 2:35emotions of traders like traders who
- 2:37sell due to fear or buy in the hope of
- 2:40gaining more technical analysis is quite
- 2:43polarizing some people swear by it and
- 2:46others think it's complete nonsense one
- 2:48way you can think about it is in terms
- 2:50of psychology basically in technical
- 2:52analysis traders will sometimes have a
- 2:54high confidence in the upcoming market
- 2:57moves due to patterns in the current
- 2:59data these traders are not trying to
- 3:02predict the future they're predicting
- 3:03what's going to happen in the market by
- 3:05taking a look at the data in front of
- 3:07them for example traders might know when
- 3:10a chart looks a certain way that the
- 3:12majority of the market will feel fear
- 3:15and start selling so that they can
- 3:17deduce from that how they should trade
- 3:20it's not about using magic to predict
- 3:22the future it's about understanding
- 3:24market psychology and what the average
- 3:26person is going to think based on the
- 3:29market conditions and then positioning
- 3:31accordingly to spot favorable
- 3:33opportunities traders often use
- 3:36indicators technical analysis indicators
- 3:38help traders identify existing trends
- 3:41and provide insightful information into
- 3:44trends that may emerge the first
- 3:46indicator that we'll be looking at is
- 3:47moving averages moving averages is one
- 3:49of the most commonly used tools to
- 3:51indicate overall trend direction to
- 3:54determine support and resistance levels
- 3:56moving averages is calculated based on
- 3:59the closing price of an asset within a
- 4:01specific time period for example the
- 4:03closing price of btc yesterday 20 ma one
- 4:07would look over a 20 day period where
- 4:10200 ma one would look over a 200 200-day
- 4:13period by calculating ma the impacts of
- 4:16random short-term fluctuations on the
- 4:18price over a specific time period is
- 4:21reduced we will look at what ma looks
- 4:23like on a chart later in this video next
- 4:26up rsi relative strength index rsi
- 4:30measures the extent of recent price
- 4:33changes to evaluate overbought and
- 4:36oversold conditions it's used to study
- 4:38the perceived strength of the market if
- 4:41you want to learn how rsr is calculated
- 4:43there'll be a link in the description
- 4:45where you can take a look but for now
- 4:47all you need to know is how and why
- 4:49traders use this indicator the great
- 4:51thing is you don't need to learn the
- 4:52formula to calculating rsi because
- 4:55that's already built into the binance
- 4:57chart for you if you want to explore rsi
- 5:00more in depth follow these steps go to
- 5:02your chosen binance chart in this case
- 5:04we are looking at the btc busd trading
- 5:07chart go to trading view indicators rsi
- 5:11click on relative strength index now you
- 5:14can see what it looks like on the chart
- 5:16the next indicator we'll be talking
- 5:17about is bollinger bands it's called
- 5:19bollinger bands because john bollinger
- 5:22created it bollinger bands indicate
- 5:24whether the market has high or low
- 5:25volatility as well as overbought and
- 5:28oversold conditions simply put it breaks
- 5:31down to a moving average which we've
- 5:33spoken about before in this video and
- 5:36volatility bans when traders add this
- 5:38indicator to a chart they'll have the
- 5:40moving average in the middle and a
- 5:42bollinger band at the top and the bottom
- 5:45this indicator is designed to ensure
- 5:47that 95
- 5:48of the price data will fall between
- 5:51these two trading bans bollinger bands
- 5:53are based on price volatility so they
- 5:55won't stay the same distance from the
- 5:57moving average if volatility drops
- 6:00they'll get closer to the moving average
- 6:02if volatility gets bigger they'll widen
- 6:05let's take a look at the binance chart
- 6:07right now all we can see on the chart
- 6:10are trading candles by clicking on
- 6:12indicators and then selecting moving
- 6:14average you can see there is an extra
- 6:17line in the chart that wasn't there
- 6:19before this line is the moving average
- 6:21when we go back to the indicators we
- 6:23click on bollinger bands we see that the
- 6:26chart now has two extra lines at the top
- 6:29and the bottom of the moving average
- 6:31some traders believe that when the
- 6:33bollinger bands are far apart the
- 6:35current trend might be ending and when
- 6:37the bands are narrow the market
- 6:39volatility is low now that we have taken
- 6:41a look at technical indicators we're
- 6:44going to take a look at the next popular
- 6:46concept that traders like to use to
- 6:48build a trading strategy the goal of
- 6:50fundamental analysis is to determine if
- 6:53the price of an asset is overvalued or
- 6:56undervalued fundamental analysis is also
- 6:59known as fa fa assesses an assets value
- 7:02by examining as many qualitative and
- 7:04quantitative factors as possible such as
- 7:07market gap and other economic factors fa
- 7:10works on the understanding that the
- 7:12potential of an asset should be based on
- 7:15more than just previous performance in
- 7:17traditional stock in the finance world
- 7:19traders use fa to find projects that
- 7:22they believe will have high potential by
- 7:25looking at balance sheets results the
- 7:27product and everything that is connected
- 7:30to that project in crypto a dfi project
- 7:33could be generating a lot of revenue and
- 7:36benefits for holders but not many people
- 7:38know about it yet traders would use fa
- 7:41to seek out these kind of projects you
- 7:43could say that fa looks to determine how
- 7:46external factors can affect the
- 7:49performance of an asset fa considers
- 7:51more qualitative data than quantitative
- 7:54data an example of this would be looking
- 7:56at ethereum through fa investors would
- 7:59look at everything connected to ethereum
- 8:01rather than just how the asset itself
- 8:04has been performing in the past what are
- 8:06the basic differences between ta and fa
- 8:09ifa looks at the largest picture of an
- 8:11asset considering as many influencing
- 8:13factors as possible ta is strictly
- 8:16focused on historical market data and
- 8:19market charts if a seeks to determine
- 8:21the actual value of a trading asset ta
- 8:24is used as a tool to predict the price
- 8:26action based on trading volume and past
- 8:29trends fa and ta are both very valuable
- 8:33in their own way but the most reasonable
- 8:35course of action would be a balanced use
- 8:37of both in the next video we'll be
- 8:39covering trading strategies now that you
- 8:41have a basic understanding of the two
- 8:43main concepts of crypto trading you are
