5 Crypto Investor Mistakes [Part 2]
First part.
◈ Do not follow trends
• Axie → STEPN
• DOGE → Shiba Inu
• ETH → Solana/Luna/Avalanche
• Cryptopunks → BAYC
The one who discovered the trend first earns the most.
◈ Do not follow microtrends
Microtrends change very often in the crypto market. It is important not to get hung up and not "fall in love" with a particular coin/niche.
If EOS is dead, then it is dead, don't touch it.
◈ Do not pay attention to "slippage"
When exchanging shieldcoins for DEX, very often you can overpay by 5-20% due to slippage.
Causes:
• low liquidity
• very volatile coin
• low volumes
On the DEX, slippage can be set manually. On Pancake the default is 0.5%. So if you pay $100 for token A, you will get $99.5 in token A.
◈ Ignore non-permanent losses
Intermittent losses occur when you farm 2 tokens in an LP pair, such as BNB-CAKE.
This knowledge has saved us thousands of dollars.
◈ Do not follow the market phase
The market is an organism that has periods of euphoria, accumulation and decline.
Main market sentiment indicators:
• time before halving
• alt season and BTC market share
• fear index
• capitalization of the crypto market.
