01:12first tip is you know or the first thing you need to actually avoid is a lack of
01:18research I always tell you if you're interested in learning more there are a
01:23a lot of resources and tools that we have on our main website and you can go to
01:27other sources as well but a lack of research when you're trading financial
01:31instruments is pretty much the same as you gambling so this dynamic complex nature of
01:37crypto makes it something that you need to definitely understand in depth so
01:43making sure you're doing your research is paramount the next thing you need to
01:48avoid is ignoring risk management sort of tips so if you are just trading
01:55willy-nilly you are likely to lose the money you need to be able to understand
02:00how you actually can avoid losses by setting up your stop-loss orders and
02:05things like that so practicing a real risk management is key we've done a real
02:13good guide on how to actually risk manage in crypto as well so make sure you head
02:19on over to our site and check that whole guide out the next thing you need to also
02:25avoid is just having overconfidence a lot of traders particularly beginners
02:30often enter the market with excessive confidence and while obviously self
02:35assurance is crucial overestimating your trade abilities or your trading
02:39abilities can be costly so it's crucial to have this balanced outlook and
02:43to remain grounded and especially after you've had a couple of wins a lot of
02:48people win a little bit on a couple of trades and then they end up kind of
02:52taking unnecessary risks another thing you need to avoid is falling for scams and
02:57Ponzi schemes the crypto space is rife with these sort of scams we just need to be a
03:01little bit more careful who you actually take advice from you know what kind of
03:07projects you deal with and also what type of platforms that you're trading on
03:12because things can get a little bit risky another thing to avoid is formal okay so
03:18formal is just effectively just the fear of missing out in crypto with very
03:22volatile you know you don't want to be just for moving in because you heard
03:27somebody talking about a particular coin if you think it's a time for you to go
03:32all-in with a lot of money just because you had somebody else made money trading
03:38whether it's a meme coin or whatever tokens you need to be very careful and
03:43another thing is to obviously make sure you're not neglecting your tax obligations
03:47cryptocurrencies are still very new a lot of regulations are not very clean a lot of
03:52jurisdictions but just make sure you're staying tax compliant wherever you are so
03:58that you avoid unnecessary stress in the future also another tip is to make sure
04:03that you know you avoid poor emotional discipline people that's why we have
04:08things such as the greed and fear index for example if you're greedy you know when
04:14the market is fearful it's generally a good idea but if you're greedy when
04:18everybody else is greedy then it's definitely a bit of a risky thing to do
04:24or you know so just managing your uh your greed and your fear and making sure you
04:29know you're having well thought out trading strategies and managing your
04:33emotions when you're trading is very key and also don't trade based on tips and
04:38rumors okay so there's a lot of rumors and tips and things like that whether it's us
04:43youtubers or anyone else and make sure you're doing proper due diligence you're
04:47doing your own research before you put your money down in anything okay and the
04:52number nine thing i want to talk to you about is just making sure you stay
04:56diversified because the lack of diversification in crypto can also be a
05:01higher risk strategy you never know which project can go belly up which
05:06platform especially if you're using custodial platforms that you know the
05:12custody your private keys you need to be diversifying where you actually putting
05:17your assets so a lack of diversification is definitely a high risk strategy in
