WTW: Worried about BTC and ALTs? Let me help.

BITBAY:BTCUSDT sometimes feels like a winding road of volatility and confusion. It is until you understand the meaning behind the madness... In this week's: What The What?1? with @SwayzePunkz.

SwayzePunkz is an educational service, we're, of course, never soliciting any products we're just looking after the average investor, from beginner to advanced with some tips and tricks we learned along the way. Disclaimer, this isn't financial advice, so don't take it that way or we get in trouble.

Somewhere along the way, I came across some pretty useful information on TradingView, I was a beginner, but something caught my eye on the ol' squiggly lines. (this was before I knew what candlesticks were). I was roughly familiar with the SPYUSD aka the S&P 500, I knew it was a market indicator that showed roughly what was happening, but that was it... But what I noticed was the correlations between this chart and some of the ones I was watching.. Some of them, almost like clockwork, following the chart, or better yet, inversely (like it's opposite day) following the S&P...This staggering realization made me understand that trading wasn't only about the Trade fundamentals but also relied on the market's overall daily performance.

As I've always preached, trading is a mind game... Not some Jedi-voodoo shit, but a rigorous representation of human psychology. And that psychology all boils down to one word... Confidence.

Confidence could be the feeling you get when you're walking tall after getting that dope new fade, or it could be the way you feel about an unknown. As far as the squiggly lines go, unknowns come with the territory. This doesn't mean they need to be scary, and you should never feel worried. Confidence is that feeling after you've looked at the charts, made a plan for action, and are ready to execute. The better you are at trading, means the more confident you will be - before everyone else. I say this because if a chart is screaming at you, it shouldn't be because everyone already bought it and you feel that FOMO (fear of missing out). That confidence needs to come much before that, depending on the trading style as early as 30 minutes before everyone else. This way, once everyone else is throwing in their stake, you're already in, at that low-low, watching your portfolio climb and climb.

Now, the stock market is behind me and I'm a crypto punk these days, not your standard #NFT but I'm all about these crypto plays and I love the volatility... But at the base of it all, it all comes down to one fundamental truth, find your way to become confident in an entry, before everyone else.

Consider this, remember that time you bought into a long position, then it took a sharp turn to the dirt? You were trading FOMO. If you experience this a lot, here's my tip for evading this What The What?! scenario...

When you get that feeling in your tummy when you're scrolling through your "most active" for the HIGHEST* change% over time... That is FOMO**. Try the opposite, look for that entry on a stock that is OVERSOLD** and is on the LOWEST* change % list, and see if that has an entry point. If you're playing the short game take the words with * and ** above, and swap em.

This has been another What The What?! article from @UnknownUnicorn7821777 from @Swayzepunkz.
