Be aware that it all boils down to probabilities and anticipation. It's not a crystal ball.

You also need to stay up to date with the news and rumors. The general rule is to buy the rumors and sell the news. The trick is being able to distinguish the two of them.

• Always HODL.
• If you're going to daytrade, never use more than 5-10% of your available funds.
• Never buy at an all time high. Wait for the dip, because there will be a dip.
• If you're going long, buy and forget.
• If you aren't holding any bitcoins long term, you're doing it wrong
• Never leave your currency on an exchange. Either get a hardware wallet or use a desktop wallet like Exodus.
