Cryptocurrency Trading Guide - George Protonotarios
PREFACE
This is the second edition of the ‘Cryptocurrency Trading Guide’ by George M. Protonotarios, a financial analyst and crypto enthusiast.
Since 2009, cryptocurrencies have changed the rules of the global financial game. A decade ago, the issue, exchange, and use of digital money without the intervention of a centralized institution was a dream for the financial industry. That dream came true faster than anyone could have predicted. The global penetration of the internet works as an accelerator to the acceptance of every new technology that aims to serve the emerging needs of people.
The ultimate goal of every technology, is to better meet the needs of people, nothing else matters. Cryptocurrencies can serve that mission by providing fast and low-cost payments around the globe and by offering security, scalability, and programmability via the use of Blockchain technology.
Actually, cryptocurrencies themselves are just a simple application of the Blockchain technology, just the top of the iceberg. Cryptography, Decentralized Apps, Smart Contracts, Smart Assets, Atomic Swaps, and other digital technologies are here to stay, and promise to change our financial universe for good. The decentralization of the financial industry and the tokenization of the global economy seem to be inevitable.
Many academics consider the crypto industry as a bubble ready to burst, paying a lifetime lesson to everyone involved. These academics simply cannot understand the magnitude of the financial revolution emerging from cryptography and Blockchain. It should be irrelevant if the price of Bitcoin moves from $20,000 to $3,000 and then back to $20,000. What really matters is the revolutionary technology behind the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
However, from a trader’s point of view, price matters, and this eBook includes a wide variety of useful resources and tips in order to help traders understand the behavior of the cryptocurrency market and explain the extreme fluctuations of cryptocurrency asset prices.
In overall, this book aims to create cryptocurrency thinkers who:
(a) select investments based on fundamental analysis
(b) make entries based on technical analysis and real price action
(c) decide how much to trade based solely on money management
Emotionless decision-making is the key to success when trading any financial market.

INTRODUCTION TO CRYPTOCURRENCIES
Basic Concepts
Basic concepts regarding cryptocurrencies. The APPENDIX of this book covers additional concepts in the form of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ).
The Blockchain
The Blockchain is an open-source decentralized technology that verifies and records all transactions via the use of a public ledger. After the completion of a certain number of transactions, the Blockchain generates a new block.
A block is a database entry, which stores information about the present and all previous transactions
Each Blockchain process is executed using an ecosystem of millions of community computers which store their own copy of the blockchain’s records. Only if all copies are in agreement, a block becomes a permanent link in the Blockchain
Altcoins and Forks
Altcoins are all cryptocurrencies alternative to Bitcoin. In total, there are more than 2,000 cryptocurrency projects over the internet. A Bitcoin Fork refers to a cryptocurrency built on Bitcoin’s open-sourced protocol (i.e. Bitcoin Cash). There are also cryptocurrencies that have built their own protocols including Ethereum, Ripple, Waves, and many more.
Tokens
The ecosystem of cryptocurrencies includes coins and tokens. Tokens are digital projects created through an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) and differ from coins due to their structure. Tokens operate on top of a Blockchain in order to create decentralized applications. These projects trade on cryptocurrency exchanges as common altcoins.
According to FCA UK, there are three types of tokens:
Exchange tokens: these are not issued or backed by any central authority and are intended and designed to be used as a means of exchange. They are, usually, a decentralized tool for buying and selling goods and services without traditional intermediaries. These tokens
