Shadowing Practice: Crypto Trading Course For Beginners - Part 1 [Trading Basics] - Learn English Speaking with Video

welcome to the best crypto trading course for beginners my goal when creating this course was to make a free cryptocurrency trading course that's better than

the courses that people are selling for thousands of dollars and to do this for free on our youtube channel and inside of this cryptocurrency trading course we're going to cover a lot i'm going to assume that you're a complete beginner you don't know really anything about trading and we're going

to walk you all the way up to like an advanced level of trader at least to the intermediate level of trader but the difference is i'm gonna make things really really simple and also i'm gonna share with you information that not a lot of other people have access to

because i've had the chance to partnered with a guy that's actually been trading cryptocurrency since it was like one penny so he has over a decade worth of experience and i'm gonna teach you everything that i've learned to become a profitable cryptocurrency trader

so with all of that being said let's dive into this this is how it's gonna be broken down it's gonna be broken down into multiple videos okay the first video today is gonna be part one about the crypto basics step two we're gonna be talking about charting third we're gonna be talking all

about indicators and how most of them are bs and which ones you should actually pay attention to four we're going to talk about trading systems and what are the components of a trading system and a

profitable trading system part five i'm going to talk about our favorite cryptocurrency trading strategies and don't just go skip ahead to that point right now or else you're gonna miss all this other important foundational stuff that we build upon each video and number six we're gonna cover

trading psychology because even if you know all the basics and you know how to actually execute a trading strategy a lot of the times people can't become profitable because they have it all messed up in their head and they think about trading wrong okay so we're going to talk about that

now make sure that you like subscribe and turn on post notifications so that way you don't miss the future videos that are coming out on each one of these different topics so today in the first

video we're going to be talking about the crypto basics and i'm going to assume that you don't really know a whole lot about trading and we're going to bring you up to speed so we're going to go over choosing the right broker and why this is one of the most important things to becoming

a profitable trader we're going to be covering the basics of trading view which is our charting tool i'm going to cover what are the x and y axis and what do you need to know about them we're going to be covering different time frame analysis we're also going to be covering candlesticks

and we're going to be talking about the constant war between buyers and sellers we're going to talk about cryptocurrency trading pairs and order types and which assets are the actual best to trade so

let's go ahead and let's dive into this right now into first off choosing the right broker so choosing the right broker is one of the most important steps in becoming a profitable trader

because a lot of the times brokers can be scams or they can actually take a large percentage of your money by causing outrageous fees so the first thing that you want to look for in a broker is one you want to look for one that has low fees two you want to make sure that it has

a variety of different tradable assets third you want to make sure that they already have a large number of customers served and it's not some new flash in the pan exchange that comes up four you

want to make sure that they have great customer service ideally if they have live chat support that's fantastic next is you want to make sure that it has an easy interface to use and let's go ahead and talk about this so there's a lot of different brokers that you could use out there

the one that i happen to like to use is called kucoin okay kucoin is great because they don't ask for all of your information they've been around they serve tons of clients they have really really small fees and they actually offer live chat support which is one of the few brokers

that i know of in the cryptocurrency space that actually offer that and they offer a lot of other cool stuff about different ways that you can earn passive income they have a great easy to use interface so i use kucoin you're welcome to use binance if you already have an exchange set up

then that's totally fine the rest of this tutorial is still going to be useful for you because most of the interfaces are very very similar so with that being said if you'd like to sign up for kucoin i did include a link in the description below so that way you can save

even more on your trading fees so once you have a brokerage set up then obviously you're going to want to fund the brokerage so you can either send cryptocurrency directly to your brokerage account

or the cool thing about kucoin is you can actually pay and buy crypto with your credit or debit card so it makes it really really simple to get your money onto an exchange so that way we can begin

trading the next thing that you're going to need before you get started is our favorite trading charting tool called trading view so you can go on over to tradingview.com and you can actually sign up for a free account they have a web version of this so you can analyze everything on the

web like this you can see the charts but this is basically going to help us with different charting tools that we're going to be talking about so you can do it online or you can also download

their app and you can actually have it on your computer or you can also have it on your phone so this is called trading view so make sure that you set up a trading view account if you're unfamiliar we're going to be using trading view a lot throughout the rest of this tutorial and course

so make sure that you have an account already set up the next thing that we're going to be talking about is actually the x and y axis so when you're looking at a chart you'll notice a few things

you'll notice that on this y-axis here we have price and on this x-axis here we have time so we can also change the time frame which we're going to get into later but basically you'll see

that the time changes down here the date and where the price has been at also changes here okay so this is the x and the y-axis so this is what we're looking at and then on the chart we see these

little things called candles okay each one of these candles represents a period of time so for example if i go to the daily chart just like this each one of these candles actually represents one

day now here's how to better understand candles the candles are made up of four different parts there's the low the high the open and the close and essentially the low is the lowest that this

candle has gone or that price has gone during this for example one day time period the high is the very highest that the candle or the that the price has gone during this one day period

the open is what the session actually opened at so when the day actually started where was price then the close was at the end of the day where was the closing price okay so if it's opened here and

it closed here it printed a green candle which is a bullish candle which basically means that there was more buyers in the market than there was sellers now on the opposite side we have bearish

candles which are represented by red generally where you can see again we have the high the low the open however is here and the close is here so it means that at the start of the day price

was here the close of the day the price was here so it was less so this is a bearish candle or a downward candle this would be an upward candle or bullish candle but generally you'll be hearing the

words bullish which means price is moving upwards or bearish which means price is heading downwards okay here's another way to look at a candlestick is we can see this is the daily candlestick which

again we have the open the close we have the low and the high of the candle so this is obviously a red candle because it closed further down than when it opened but also if you break that down

into the four hour time frame you can see that each one of these candles represents four hours which in total there's six of them because six times four equals 24 hours 24 hours in a day

you have the daily candle so on the four hour we can also see it so we can see the very high during this day time frame was this candle here we saw that it opened right here we saw that this

session closed right here and we can see that the low was all the way down here which is the exact same price points as we see in this daily candle however we just see this broken down into

six individual four hour segments so with that being said there's a lot of different what are called japanese candlestick patterns and each one of these patterns has a different psychology

and means something different so i'll go ahead and i'll just point out some of the most common candlestick patterns that you may want to look for so this is a very common candlestick pattern we saw a red candle here and then we see a very big green candle right next to it which completely

engulfs the previous candle so this is what's called a bullish engulfing candle and generally when you see this price generally heads on upwards okay the other type of candle or the reverse would

be like a bearish engulfing candle so this would be an example you see this big red body that's engulfed the previous entirety of this candle so this would be a bearish engulfing candle one

other candlestick pattern that you may want to pay attention to is something called pin bars and a pin bar is basically it has this body up here and then it has a long wick and you can think of the

wick is basically these top ends or this bottom ends these are called the wicks of the candle and then this center area is called the body of the candle but as we see here we have this smaller

body and we have this long wick so what is this telling us psychologically it's telling us that price tried to go down here lower but it didn't want to and actually price ended up coming up here so basically this is psychologically telling us that the bears tried to win over here they went

all the way down here but the bulls came back and they fought it all the way up to this point and this is generally a likely scenario where price is going to continue on upwards you can also see this candlestick pattern in the opposite direction you see this smaller body with this long

wick up here which basically means that price tried to go higher it really didn't want to go higher closed all the way down here right and this is generally signs that the bears are in control

and that price is likely to move lower now there's a whole mirage of different candlestick patterns but these are kind of just the most basic commonly used ones now let's talk about the battle between

the buyers and sellers this is what actually gets price to move there's a constant battle between buyers and sellers and anytime that you're buying a cryptocurrency that means that there's somebody

on the market that's actually selling you this cryptocurrency or anytime you're selling anytime you're selling and you're able to actually sell that means that there has to be on the other end a buyer so there's always this constant battle of buying and selling that's happening in the market

and that's really what the charts end up making up and that's what these candles make up is it shows the psychology of what's happening in the market between buyers and sellers okay now we're going to

be talking about cryptocurrency pairs so what are cryptocurrency pairs you'll notice that whenever you're trading an asset you're trading it against some other asset so in this instance you see

that there's btc usd this is called btc in this case the first one is called the base currency and then the second one is called the quote currency so the base currency is bitcoin the

quote currency is the u.s dollar okay and you'll notice that it's always traded in pairs and uh you can see here's ethereum us dollar so ethereum in this case is the base the us dollar is the quote

currency is what it's called but you're trading a pair you have to trade one asset for another asset now in this scenario we can see that if price is going up then we would want to buy ethereum us

dollars so we're buying ethereum because we think that ethereum is going to go up in price relative to the us dollar and not always is it tied to the us dollar in this scenario here on kucoin

you can see this is ethereum bitcoin so ethereum in this case is the base currency and bitcoin is the quote currency so in this scenario if we think that ethereum is going to go up more than

bitcoin is going to go up then we'll buy eath btc because we think that eth is going to become more valuable compared to bitcoin now before we get into the different type of market orders and

what assets are actually the best assets to trade go on over to instagram and go to blue edge crypto and follow us i want to send you a free report which basically is going to show you

seven different passive income opportunities that you can earn with cryptocurrency all you got to do is go on over to blue edge crypto on instagram and message us the word passive and when you do

that we're gonna send you a free report with our seven favorite ways to earn passive income in the cryptocurrency ecosystem okay so now we're going to talk about different order types so these are the most common different order types so what does this mean when you go to actually place a trade

there's different options that it'll give you on how you can place this trade so let me explain what this means so now we're going to talk about the most common order types now what does this actually mean this means that when you're going to actually place your trade say you want to buy

bitcoin or you want to sell ethereum there's different types of orders that you can make in order to execute it i know this may sound a little bit confusing but i'll make it really simple okay

so there's market orders there's take profits there's stop losses there's trailing stop losses there's buy and sell stops and there's limit orders okay so let's get into what each one of

these means the first one is called a market order and you can either buy or sell at the market price so what does this mean this means that you're going to instantaneously enter the trade at the

best market price that's available right now so no waiting for example you just get right in you can either decide to buy or sell whatever the price of the asset is right now okay the next type of order

is what's called a take profit so for example let's say that you put a market order right here to buy and you then want to take profit up here this means that basically when price reaches that

point you're going to sell the asset and it's going to convert back into a profit for you right so you can set this order on the brokerage that you're trading with so that way when price

hits there you automatically take profit now the next thing is that you could do this in the opposite direction so say you're taking a sell order right here say you're doing a market sell order i mean you're getting into the market right when the market price is available

and you put the take profit down here it's down below because we're expecting price to go lower so when price comes down here and actually hits this then you will be taken out of the trade and

you will earn profit okay now the next thing that we're going to talk about is what's called a stop loss okay and what a stop loss is is essentially let's say that we want to sell right here at the

market price and we want price to go to this point this is our take profit well we may also want to put a stop loss right here and essentially what this means if the price goes against us okay and

we're losing money in this case we want to get completely out of the market at this stage right here okay so if price comes up to here then it hits this then we'll get taken out so that way we

cut our losses lower now in the opposite direction again let's say that we put a buy order right here and we put our take profit right here and we put our stop loss down here to protect our bottom

downside price comes up here boom in this case and it hits your take profit however if price were to come down here it hit our stop loss and we'd get taken out of the market right there the next thing is what's called a trailing stop loss and this is a little bit more advanced but basically

let's say that we put a buy order right here let's say that price moves on up to this point we can move our stop loss or trail our stop loss so essentially let's say we put our stop loss

right here when price is up here this basically moves our trade to break even at this point once price has risen let's say that price rises again we can continue to trail our stop loss so this

way we're locking in profits and we're actually limiting our downside so again price moves higher we move our stop loss even higher and then boom we get cut out right here okay but we capture a big

portion of this move thanks to a trailing stop loss the next type of order are what's called stop orders okay and you can have a buy or a stop order for example you want to enter the market as

soon as price gets up into this point so you put a buy stop here and when price moves past this you automatically enter right at that price there okay so for example price comes up and as soon as it

comes up and it hits this line then we'd actually enter the trade okay so that's a buy stop now a sell stop is the total opposite right we could put a sell stop down right here and when price

moves to this level or past this level right here this is where we're going to enter the trade so we would have entered the trade right there okay the next type of order is called a limit order

okay and you can have a buy limit or you can have a sell limit but in this case let's say that price is here but you think that's too pricey that's too expensive i want to wait for price to come down here until i actually enter my order so you'd wait for price to come down here and then once it comes

down below and it starts coming back up you'd actually enter the trade right here okay same thing with a sell limit let's say that you think that price is going to come up here before falling

even further then you put a sell limit right here it would come up here and it'd come on down okay so you'd enter the trade right here so these are the different types of market orders so we've

covered choosing the right broker trading view what x and y access time frames candles buyers for sellers pairs order types now we're going to talk about which assets are best to actually trade

now when trading cryptocurrencies you want to make sure that you're trading the best assets to trade now with cryptocurrencies since there's like 10 000 different cryptocurrencies sometimes it can be difficult to get in and out of certain trades to find somebody to buy

if you're selling or to find somebody to sell if you're buying in this scenario because there's low liquidity what does that mean that there's not enough people actually trading this market so when you're trading you only want to trade coins that have a lot of volume or that have

a high market cap so generally it's a safe idea if you're going to be day trading cryptocurrency that you probably just want to trade cryptos that are like in within the top 10 or maybe within the

top 25 anything outside of that you may get stuck with liquidity issues where it's hard to sell your asset when you're ready to get out and you may get stuck holding something longer than you'd like to

so primarily we actually like to trade just bitcoin and ethereum they're very very volatile assets and they're also very uh liquid assets so that means we should have no problem getting in

and out of trades okay now we've covered a lot in this video but the next video in this series is really important now we're going to start getting into charting okay so we're going to be talking

about things like support and resistance and what most people tell you about support and resistance is just a complete lie and is inaccurate actually second thing we're talking about trend lines and we're going to be talking about chart patterns and in that video i'm going to show you a couple

secret chart patterns that not a lot of people talk about but once you understand these chart patterns you'll be able to accurately predict when the market's likely to start flying off in certain direction so make sure that you like subscribe turn on the post notifications so that

way you don't miss the next video in this series and we'll see you in the next video

What is the Shadowing Technique?

Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
