If you’ve been following this 90-Day Crypto Learning Challenge, you already know one thing:
👉 Price never moves randomly.
It moves in patterns.
Today, we’re learning one of the most important skills in trading —
knowing what type of market you’re in before taking a trade.
This alone can save you from many beginner mistakes.
1️⃣ Uptrend (Market Moving Up)
An uptrend means the market is healthy and moving higher.
How it looks:
Price makes higher highs
Price makes higher lows
In simple words:
Buyers are stronger than sellers.
Beginner rule:
📈 In an uptrend, buying makes more sense than selling.
If you trade with an uptrend, you are already on the market’s side.
2️⃣ Downtrend (Market Moving Down)
A downtrend is the opposite.
How it looks:
Price makes lower highs
Price makes lower lows
In simple words:
Sellers are in control.
Beginner rule:
📉 In a downtrend, avoid buying blindly.
Many beginners lose money because they try to “catch the bottom.”
3️⃣ Range Market (Sideways Market)
This is the one most people forget.
A range market means price is not trending.
How it looks:
Price moves between a clear top and bottom
No higher highs
No lower lows
In simple words:
The market is resting and waiting.
Beginner rule:
⏸️ If you don’t understand range markets, don’t trade them.
Doing nothing is also a smart decision.
🔑 The Golden Beginner Guarantee
If you identify the market type first:
You avoid emotional trades
You stop fighting the market
You trade with clarity, not hope
💡 This alone can improve your results more than any indicator.
