One of the bad habits of crypto investors is that they check price charts too often, perhaps 50 or 100 times a day through mobile apps. When I first joined the market, I had that habit too: I checked BTC price through Coinmarketcap & Coingecko, I used Blockfolio and things got worse when I joined the TradingView community. Watching price charts too often created unnecessary stress, especially when I opened TradingView on my smartphone at night, read the trading views of other traders and couldn't fall back asleep, worse, sometimes I made poorly informed investment decisions at 3 AM.
When returning to Vietnam, although I can still access TradingView on PC through in.tradingview.com, I cannot use TradingView on mobile because TradingView is blocked in Vietnam. This is actually a good thing because I am no longer distracted by 1H or 4H candles on the TradingView app. I can focus on my teaching job to provide more value to my students.
However, monitoring the crypto market is still necessary for my investment journey, especially when discussing with the Vietnamese crypto community. I have chosen to track BTC price fluctuations through Telegram channels because I use Telegram quite frequently. For now, I am following
https://t.me/BTCprices and am quite satisfied with the information from this channel. It updates BTC price every 30 seconds and I can refer to it whenever I need to know BTC price on the market. Its content is also boring enough for me not to get "addicted", and I also mute it to avoid being disturbed by continuous notifications.
I think this is a suitable choice for me to balance my life, I don't want to be swept up in the crypto world and take on the anxiety of the price charts. When BTC price was still above $90K, I could still relax and take a break instead of rushing to open my laptop and analyze the market to take timely action.
