Let me be real with you.
Most beginner losses don’t come from bad entries —
they come from not knowing what they are trading.
Before you place any order, these are the things a smart trader checks first.
Welcome to Day 15 of the 90-Day Crypto Learning Challenge 🚀
This lesson can protect you from avoidable mistakes.
1. Market Cap — The True Size of the Coin
Market cap tells you how big and stable a coin is.
Large market cap → steadier moves
Small market cap → sharp pumps & dumps
📌 Cheap price ≠ cheap asset.
2. Fully Diluted Value (FDV) — Future Pressure
FDV shows the market cap if all tokens are released.
Why it matters:
Big FDV gap = many tokens still locked
Future unlocks can push price down
📌 This affects long-term holding and swing trades.
3. Token Distribution (Fully Distributed or Not)
Ask:
Are most tokens already in circulation?
Mostly unlocked → fewer surprises
Mostly locked → future selling pressure
📌 This explains sudden drops many beginners don’t expect.
4. 24-Hour Trading Volume — Liquidity Check
Volume shows how active the market is.
High volume → easy entry & exit
Low volume → price moves violently
📌 Low volume coins are dangerous for beginners.
5. Max Supply — Scarcity vs Inflation
Max supply shows the maximum number of coins that can exist.
Limited supply → scarcity
Unlimited supply → inflation risk
📌 This affects long-term value potential.
6. Circulating Supply — What’s Tradable Now
This shows how many coins are currently available.
Low circulation → sudden spikes possible
High circulation → smoother price action
📌 Always compare this with max supply.
7. Day High & Day Low — Today’s Battlefield
Shows today’s price range.
Near day high → higher risk
Near day low → better context for entries
📌 This helps avoid emotional buying.
8. Order Book — Buyers vs Sellers
The order book shows:
Buy walls (support)
Sell walls (resistance)
📌 Thin order book = easy price manipulation.
9. Funding Rate (If You’re Viewing Futures)
Funding rate shows trader bias.
Very positive → too many longs
Very negative → too many shorts
📌 Extreme funding often leads to reversals.
(Beginners should mostly observe, not trade futures.)
10. News & Upcoming Events
Check:
Token unlock dates
Major updates
Listings or delistings
📌 News can override technical analysis.
The Big Takeaway
Price alone lies.
Data tells the truth.
Preparation protects capital.
Trading is not about speed — it’s about awareness.
