UNDERSTAND THE TERMINOLOGY “Failure to prepare, is preparing to fail.”

This welcome pack will include the steps required before beginning your programme with Alphachain Capital and an overview of what to expect. Having a firm grasp of the most commonly-used market terms will make your entry into the programme much simpler. Some words and phrases you’ll hear over and over again include: Base currency: The currency you are holding. If you’re from the United States, your base currency is most likely the U.S. dollar.

Quote/Term currency: The currency you are going to purchase.

Bid price: The price that your broker would be willing to “bid” or “buy” the base currency you are holding.

Ask price: The price that your broker will “ask” you for in exchange for buying your quote currency of choice. The ask price is always higher than the bid price.

Spread: The difference between the bid price and the ask price. This is the broker’s commission.

Pip: The smallest measurable value of currency movement. The word “pip” is an acronym standing for “percentage in point,” and a single pip is equal to 1/100th of 1% of your currency. For example, if the value of the USD rises by a single pip, that means it increased in value by $0.0001

ANALYSE THE CRYPTOCURRENCY MARKETS “Every battle is won or lost before it’s ever fought.”

Making money trading cryptocurrencies is about accurately predicting the outcome of the battle between the bulls and bears. In simple terms to be profitable, you will need to forecast the price direction of the major cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH, LTC, BCH and XRP) in order to profit.

Trading Cryptocurrencies is largely driven by technical analysis, therefore a good understanding of technicals will help you identify the trends in price movements and key levels to watch which are to be respected or broken by market participants.

On the programme you will learn to use innovative cryptocurrency trading indicators that will help give you a trading edge.

Fundamental analysis: This type of analysis involves looking at changes in blockchain governance (including forks) and using this information to influence your trading decisions.

Sentiment analysis: This kind of analysis is largely subjective. Essentially you try to analyse the mood of the market to figure out if it's "bearish" or "bullish".

While you can't always put your finger on market sentiment, you can often define the catalysts that will influence your trades.

Technical analysis: Technical analysis involves reviewing charts or historical data to predict how the currency will move based on past events. You can obtain charts and perform analysis TradingView.

RECOMMENDED READING LIST “A well-known Wall Street Trader had gone on a fishing trip for a week, he hired a fly-fishing guide and off they set. By the end of the week not only did the trader catch a 24 pound sea-run brown trout on a fly but returned the favour to his guide by offering him a trading job. He provided a list of books to read and when he finished reading them, to give him a call.”

Please aim to read the following books in this order before and during your course at Alphachain Capital. We believe self-study is as important as completing the programme. In trading you never stop learning.
