I don’t get into 10-15 rules thing. I feel there are just simple requirements, and that’s to be patient, discipline and good with sticking to your methods. This is where I feel one could gain even without any major experience or knowledge. I am not an expert, so I prefer using alternative which is My Crypto Paradise, as it’s great for Crypto Trading with their lovely signals and various other features to help with trading. If you have such accurate and proven place, it just makes out the work easier for you.

What a post! Quite interesting and educational!!
I enjoyed reading your tips, you made everything crisply for quick grasping. I love the idea of backtesting, where traders try to see patterns from historical data and try to make reasonable trading decision and plans based on that pattern.

Most people who are interested in learning how to become profitable traders need only spend a few minutes online before reading such phrases as "plan your trade; trade your plan" and "keep your losses to a minimum." For new traders, these tidbits of information can seem more like a distraction than any actionable advice. New traders often just want to know how to set up their charts so they can hurry up and make money.

To be successful in trading, however, one needs to understand the importance of and adhere to a set of rules that have guided all types of traders, with a variety of trading account sizes. Each rule alone is important, but when they work together the effects are strong. Trading with these rules can greatly increase the odds of succeeding in the markets.

Rule No.1: Always Use a Trading Plan
A trading plan is a written set of rules that specifies a trader's entry, exit and money management criteria. Using a trading plan allows traders to do this, although it is a time consuming endeavor.

With today's technology, it is easy to test a trading idea before risking real money. Backtesting, applying trading ideas to historical data, allows traders to determine if a trading plan is viable, and also shows the expectancy of the plan's logic. Once a plan has been developed and backtesting shows good results, the plan can be used in real trading. The key here is to stick to the plan. Taking trades outside of the trading plan, even if they turn out to be winners, is considered poor trading and destroys any expectancy the plan may have had. (Learn more about backtesting in Backtesting: Interpreting the Past.)

Rule No.4: Protect Your Trading Capital
Saving money to fund a trading account can take a long time and much effort. It can be even more difficult (or impossible) the next time around. It is important to note that protecting your trading capital is not synonymous with not having any losing trades. All traders have losing trades; that is part of business. Protecting capital entails not taking any unnecessary risks and doing everything you can to preserve your trading business. (See Risk Management Techniques For Active Traders for more.)

You have explained all these rules very carefully and I hope everyone has learned something from your article! Rule number 1 and 4 are the most important according to my experience, I've helped many people in making analyses for different coins but these are the biggest problems that I've noticed from most of them. They trade without any plan, and they do know to separate their profit and capital !!! This is very bad because we know trading is taking risks, so if they lose they will have nothing left to help them to recover. I'm glad you explained about this, I hope many traders have learned something!
