I have noticed that many in the crypto market simply cannot read the trends correctly.

It's actually not that complicated if you know what to pay attention to.
Most beginners make the mistake of looking at the wrong timeframes.

Always start with the higher timeframes – that is the game changer.
No matter what happens on the 4-hour chart, the direction is always dictated by the weekly chart.
Use the smaller timeframes for your entries, but base your decisions on the bigger pictures.
Daily and weekly charts are your best friends here.

How do you recognize a bullish trend?
Very simply: The price makes consistently higher highs and higher lows.
That’s your confirmation that it’s heading upward.
As long as the price doesn’t fall below the last higher low, you can stay optimistic.
I always first check if this structure is still intact before entering a position.

In a bearish trend, it’s exactly the opposite – lower highs and lower lows indicate the market is weakening.
If you want to short there, look for the same pattern, just in the opposite direction.

Most people lose their money during trend reversals.
That’s the critical phase.
When a bullish trend breaks and the price falls below the higher low, you need to change your opinion – period.
Some take profits there, others open shorts.
It depends on what type of trader you are.

The same applies to a bearish trend:
As soon as the price breaks above the lower highs, it signals a shift to bullish conditions.
That’s your cue to change your perspective.

The thing is: no trend moves straight up or down.
There are always setbacks and consolidations.
On higher timeframes, it may look stable, while the lower timeframe shows a 32-percent decline.
That’s completely normal.
When the price falls into the key zone of the higher timeframe, it can be a perfect entry point.

My tip: Be optimistic when the trend is bullish, and pessimistic when it’s bearish.
Change your opinion when the trend shifts.
That’s the secret to long-term success and not losing your money.
