What Is Crypto Trading?

Cryptocurrency trading is the act of buying and selling digital assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and altcoins with the goal of making a profit. Unlike traditional stock markets, crypto markets operate 24/7 — creating unique opportunities and challenges for traders.

How Crypto Trading Works

At its core, trading is simple: buy low, sell high. But execution requires understanding market dynamics, price action, and exactly when to enter and exit positions.

• Crypto exchanges (Binance, Bybit, OKX) are where trading happens
• Prices change based on supply and demand — more buyers push price up, more sellers push it down
• You profit by selling at a higher price than you bought
• You can also profit when prices fall by "shorting" — selling first, buying back lower

Types of Crypto Traders

Scalpers

Scalpers make dozens of trades per day, targeting tiny price moves. Requires constant attention and fast execution — not suitable for most beginners.

Day Traders

Day traders open and close all positions within a single day. They analyze 1H and 4H charts, targeting 2–10% moves per session.

Swing Traders

Swing traders hold positions for days or weeks, targeting larger moves of 10–50%. This is the most beginner-friendly style — and what Nezsig signals are primarily designed for.
