Should beginners learn trading or just hold?

[Fire&Rain]

If someone is new to crypto, should they start by learning how to trade with charts and indicators? Or is it safer to just buy and hold long term? I’ve seen both work, but beginners often lose money trying to trade early on. What would you suggest to someone just getting into crypto today?

It is advisable that newbies should learn first before moving into trading. Trading can be volatile and account wiped out in minutes! Trading involves a lot of discipline and experience to be successful.

Even though someone is new to crypto, if they have analytical skills and have experience trading both in stocks and forex, there's nothing wrong with being able to directly trade crypto on a crypto exchange.

When you enter crypto for the first time, it is just better than you don't rush to start trading. Spend up to a year and give yourself two hours everyday to learn trading before you enter.

Many stock and forex traders have tried crypto trading, and even though they are new to the crypto world, many of them are not disappointed, because they already have previous trading skills and experience.

It is better to buy on dips and hold for long term. Trading needs descipline and money management, good strategy, not a easy job.

I think the best thing to do would be to first learn all that there is to learn about crypto currency before you think about trading.

For me, beginners should just hold and start learning how to strike the balance and learn thr basic and necessary skills needed to excel in trading. It may take sometimes but it worthy it. Jumping into trading without learning may lead to losses that may wipe the capital.

Starting with complex technical analysis is often overwhelming, and holding through every dip takes more patience than most people realize. If you're looking for a middle ground, I've found that prediction markets are a solid way to bridge that gap.

The early the better. When they acquire such trading skills a little bit earlier they would grow and perfect the art when they become matured.
