Trading is viewed by many as a lucrative occupation, be that with regards to traditional financial markets or digital assets (i.e. crypto). However, contrary to traditional markets, trading cryptos is much more accessible and hassle-free: there is a lot less regulation and requirements, and any person is just a few clicks away from becoming a crypto trader - all you need to do is register an account on any of the hundreds of available exchanges and you’re good to go. Hence why there are over 50 million active crypto traders as of 2019.
But, as is the case with many other things, getting into the crypto market is the easy part. The hard one is, of course, the challenge to stay profitable. There are dozens, if not hundreds, of tools available to traders to enhance their results. From this perspective, crypto traders are much similar to athletes and trading as a whole is much like sports: only a few get to become world-class professionals and make a living from trading, at the cost of those who don’t (literally at their direct cost).
Traders worldwide sometimes deploy dozens of software solutions, additional monitors and whatnot to gain an edge over those on the other side of the trade. So the big question is: what tools are the most essential, and for those just starting out, are there any value-adding tools for free? While the answer to the latter question is a definitive yes (psst, look at GoodCrypto), the former requires some more depth.
First thing’s first: you need an account on a crypto exchange. Can’t choose which one? Just head over to goodcrypto.app and you’ll see 20+ exchanges to choose from – it’s safe to say that we recommend the exchanges supported by our infrastructure.
The single biggest difference between the exchanges, for most traders anyway, the variety of order types they support. While some exchanges may have trailing stop orders, along with a number of other advanced order types, most of them don’t. This is where you have to worry not: if your favorite trading platform lacks a certain order type, such as a trailing stop loss, just connect your account to Good Crypto and place such orders via the app.
In order to stay ahead of the curve, traders must constantly adapt and evolve their strategy. As we’ve discussed in our previous blog posts, being able to review your past performance is instrumental in identifying and solving problems in your strategy and lead to unavoidable improvements in your day trading cryptocurrency.
This is where the GoodCrypto app really shines: not only can you connect and monitor 20+ exchanges, but you can also track all your Bitcoin, Ethereum and other blockchain wallets to see how your consolidated portfolio changed over time: in the past weeks, months, years. Additionally, you can choose from 40+ fiat currencies to display the value of your portfolio, which makes it a unique tool suitable for traders all around the world.
Though many are used to placing tradingview alerts, isn’t it better to set custom price alerts right as you trade, without switching between multiple interfaces? Of course, it is! That’s why we’ve made it possible for you to place price-dependent alerts right in the app. Available across 10,000+ trading pairs, it may even have more options to choose from than tradingview, which often doesn’t have the charts for many exotic, under-the-radar cryptocurrencies.
