If I we're gonna start to trade bitcoinor any of the other cryptocurrencies,what would my plan of attack be?What would I use?I'm gonna talk about
that, map out what my lineof thought, what my
plan of attack would be.(whoosh)At this moment in time as I stand here,recording this video,
I don't have any plansto start trading any
cryptocurrencies, bitcoin,but in full disclosure, that could change.So maybe by the time this goes live,who knows I may be some huge hardcorecryptocurrency trader,
but right now I am not,however, I do wanna walk
through what my thoughtprocess would be in terms of approaching,you know, something new like
this, so the first thingright of the git-go is I would ask myselfand this is something
that you should probablyask yourself too, is you
gotta differentiate the words.Invest or trade.Now I kinda let the cat out of the bag,and I've already answered this for you,but I would be wanting to trade.Now if you're saying no,
I just wanna invest in it,then you would go off on
a totally different path,and what I'm about to talk about,my path is gonna be different than yours,because obviously you're
on the investing path.I'm gonna be on the trading path.So if you just wanna use broad
ideas, I think that bitcoinis gonna be worth more 10 years from now,so I'm gonna just buy and hold,well then you're investingand I'm not looking down at that.I'm not saying that's wrong or anything.I'm just saying that your plan of attackis gonna be much different than mine.So right off the git-go, are
you looking to invest or trade?You know, be more active in it.Second part is well,
how are you gonna gaugehow you make decisions.Decisions about what?What actually matters with bitcoinor any of the other cryptocurrencies?Well there's two kind
of main driving forces.There is gonna be a time factor,and then there's gonna bea price factor, right.I realize I'm stating the
obvious, but stick with me.Bitcoin trades over a period of time.It's been trading over time,and it's gonna continue trading over timeunless it gets shot
down or something crazy,but as it stands right
now, time is passing,and that's gonna be a big element of it.And then, of course, well how
do you even value bitcoin?Well you value it with price.So for me, I want something
that's going to bevery straightforward, very in your face,in regards to what is happening
within time and price.As in what is going on?Not what I think is going to go on.Not what other people say is gonna go on,but what is?So the keyword that I want is, is.What actually occurring?All you have to do is go
through the headlines,and you see one person
saying that bitcoin,cryptocurrencies, are
the worse thing ever.They're usin' the word scam, Ponzi scheme.They're usin' all sorts of bearish lingo,and then as you scroll down on the mouse,you scroll down on your phone,and all of sudden, hey,
I am super, super longon bitcoin, this is, you
know, the whole block chain.Oh this is a disruptor.This is the next greatest
thing, and headlinesare all over the place.So I'm not very good at
gauging that sort of stuff.I don't know what I think should happen,'cause, I mean, I see bullish stuff.I see bearish stuff in the headlines,so, I just wanna know what is.What is actually going on right now?As a trader, that's what matters.What is currently happening.Now going back to time,
this is where what sort of,you know, time efficiency
are you lookin' at?Meaning are you defining time efficiencyas, yeah, I wanna like make
five bitcoin trades a day.I wanna make five bitcoin
trades a week, maybe a month.So those are all gonna be
different types of trading,but you need a way that's
gonna help you implementwhatever that time efficiency is.Being me, I would consider
myself a pretty short-termday trader, so I would wanna be, you know,I need some sort of tool
that's gonna allow meto approach bitcoin or cryptocurrenciesin a very rapid manner.A day trading manner.So I need something that's gonna allow meto look at lower timeframes.Reminder, am I saying
this is the exact path?No, am I saying that this is probablya thought process to map
out your plan of attack?Yeah.So for me, I wanna lower timeframe,because I'm gonna be looking
more so as a pretty rapidday trader approach to all this.So I need to once again, while
looking a lower timeframe,lower timeframe of what?Well a lower timeframe of
what's going on with the price.So that brings us down here,and you know, it all kind
of maps out and centersback to the circular thing.In order to track time and
price, and a very low timeframe,those are gonna be the two kind of goals.So is there anything out
there that's gonna allow meto accomplish this, centered
around what is happening?Not what I think's gonna happen.Not what I'm predicting is gonna happen,'cause I suck at predicting.I'd rather just know
what's going on right nowand then react to that, form
trade plans around that.And, yeah, there is actually,let me grab, oh it's a mess.I don't think you can see down there,but markers all over the place.But for me the tool that I would be using,technical analysis.Pretty sure I spelled that wrong.That's alright.And this is the use of charts.You my be thinking,for those of you that are pretty cynical,oh I see Clay!You offer course on charts!That's why you want me to use a chart.No, go do it.If you're a really good
predictor, and if you can decipherall the headlines then
go do that, by all means.I'm not tryin' to persuade
you but for what I would betryin' to accomplish,
within my plan of attack,technical analysis, the use of charts,is a very, very effective tool.You my be thinkin', wait a second Clay,like there's that one
site, stockcharts.com.So those are just charts for stocks.No, no, no.The powerful thing about chartsis they center around two
things, time and price.So whether you're talkin' about stocks,whether you're talkin' about Forex,whether you're talkin' about futures,or whether you're talkin' about bitcoinor any of the other cryptocurrencies,does cryptocurrencies, does
bitcoin have a time element,and a price element associated with it?Of course.Therefore, technical analysis is relevant.So if I were to trade charts,or if I were to trade bitcoin,charts would be exactly the
tool that I would centereverything around, because
it would make what I'm tryin'to accomplish very, very straightforward.Even if you're not tryin'
to do a day trader.Maybe you're sayin', "No,
Clay, I just wanna make"like three or four trades a month."Well then you don't need to
go to the lower timeframeslike I would need to.But you would still go
to various timeframes.Again, you can manipulate
technical analysis.You can manipulate charts to goto any sort of timeframe
that you so choose.So the flexibility that charts give you,is pun intended, off the charts.There really is all sorts
of different avenuesand manipulation that you
can do within the toolof technical analysis.So if I were to do it,
that's what I would do.I would use technical
analysis as the primaryfoundational cornerstone of my strategyand of my approach, and you
know, within the chatroomthat I offer the Inner Circle.There are members and
quite a few actually,that are now switching
and getting involvedwith cryptocurrency, and it's amazing.One day they're not doin' it,the next day they're doin'
it, and making money.Why?Because a lot of members, they use chartsand it's not like a chart is differentfor cryptocurrency than it
is for, you know, stock.It is what it is,because all charts
factor on time and price,and that's exactly the same two componentsthat factor into bitcoin
and all those othercryptocurrencies out there.So that's my plan of
attack, if I were to do it!That would be my thought process,and I well end right there
at wanting to use charts,a/k/a, technical analysis.If you are out there
trading alone, currently,and maybe are in the market,
looking for a communityto join to assist you in your tradingor to just help you, give
you another set of eyeballs,then I do have a private
trading community,where you can trade along side me,and other experienced traders.So what you see popping up
