$ZEC Looking at the candlestick chart is all about finding entry points to buy; nothing else matters. What matters is gradually forming a trading logic that fits your own personality and the way you develop the habit of placing trades. Manage your position size, and control the maximum risk your position can be exposed to. Leave the rest to time. First, survive and break even; second, make profits. If you can’t hold through drawdowns, you can’t hold through anything. You can win a hundred times, but if you lose once, you’re done. If I can stay alive while weathering a “black swan,” then I have the right to cross through bull and bear markets and stay at the table.
