Cryptocurrency tools are tools that are used by crypto traders to ascertain various information about the various cryptocurrency in the world. The function of the tools is to provide information about the crypto market such as a chart, the price of the asset, news concerning the said asset and many more. With the help of these crypto tools, one can be able to minimize loss and maximize profit when trading.

It is important to mention here that crypto tools can be in form of web applications, desktop applications or even mobile applications. All of these means provide users with an opportunity to assess the market data at any point in time so that they can minimize their losses and maximize their profit using market fluctuations.

Cryptocurrency tools are designed in such a way that they won't be limited to certain regions or towns. This means that once the application is made available, everyone can have complete access to it at any point in time. People can see the market trend via some of these tools, they can also see the price and much more information that the tools offer.

Some of the tools I know in the crypto ecosystem
Since more and more people are adopting the use of digital currency by the day, a lot of new crypto tools are also coming up daily to assist them to get the required information they need about the market. There are a few popular crypto tools that almost every good trader uses daily and they include Coin Market Cap, TradingView, CoinGecko, Blockfolio etc.

Let's discuss some of the tools listed above in brief.

Coin Market Cap

One of the widely used crypto tools in the world today is the coin market cap. It is a web application that provides detailed information about the price of assets, their market capitalization and also the trading volume of the said asset etc. The coin market cap also can be used as a tracker to keep watch of a few of the selected coins we wish to invest on I.e we can create a portfolio for ourselves. The image above shows a coin market platform.

TradingView

This is another widely used crypto tool that provides traders with detailed information about the technical analysis of any crypto asset using charts and indicators. Here you will see the real-time price of the asset, the trend of the asset, the volume of the asset etc. The image above shows a trading view platform.

CoinGecko

CoinGecko is similar to coin market cap, it also provides market information such as price, volume, charts, graphs etc. Here you can also create a portfolio and monitor your favourite asset as you add them to your watchlist. The image above shows a CoinGecko platform.

Blockfolio
This is a mobile application that traders use often to keep track of their trading activities. This application helps to give updates on the current price of assets, news about different assets, notifications, historical data provision etc. It is an application that has so many things that every trader needs to keep his/herself updated with the market.

Which of the tools mentioned above is your favorite and why do you prefer it above others? Include how long you have been using it.

All the tools mentioned above are quite significant but because of the said question, I will be discussing one which I use more often and this is because I enjoy using it because of the role it plays in the crypto ecosystem. So from all the above lists, my favourite is the Trading View platform.

I'm not too long in the crypto space hence I started using the Trading View platform in the year 2020. From that very time till this moment, I have been using it and also expanding my knowledge about the tools.

The reason I prefer it to others
  • Technical analysis plays a very important role when it comes to crypto trading. The Trading View platform provides a chart that gives the user direction of the market at any point in time.

  • Trading View also provides indicators that are used alongside the chart which helps users to predict the next move in the market.

  • Trading View has a practice section where you can practice trading for free and get yourself acquainted with some of the movements of the trend before applying it in real-life trading.

  • The user interface is very friendly and easy to use as it has all its features displayed with symbols to enable even newbies to carry out their analysis.

  • The site is free to use. Once you register, you will unlock many other features that will make your trading experience more beautiful.

  • The price of the asset is usually very accurate on the site. Predictions of prices can also be made by analysts after studying the market movement using previous data on the chart.

Prepare a step-by-step guide on how to use your favorite tool in a way that new users can utilize it to have an overview of the market. Do include different features of the tool. (Screenshots required).

Using trading view is quite simple and today in this post I will be showing us the basics that every user is supposed to be aware of. Let's get started.

Step 1: Go to https://www.tradingview.com/ and on the products menu click on the chart as you can see in the image below.

Step 7: The section marked below carries the RSI indicator added to my chart. With the help of the RSI, one can be able to predict the price of the asset. As we know when the RSI gets to 30 it's an oversold region and when it is above 70 it's an overbought region

Highlight the advantages of crypto tools. Do you think the tools available at the moment are efficient? Would you like to see another one that serves a different purpose?

There are many advantages associated with crypto tools and a few of the advantages include

  • Trend Direction: It helps every trader to understand the direction in which the trend is going at any point in time. Knowing the trend direction can go a long way in helping users or traders not to counter trade which will also help to minimize their losses and maximise their profits.

  • Managing Portfolio: With crypto tools, one can be able to manage his or her portfolio by keeping the asset they are trading in a watchlist which we enable them to check at all times.

  • Getting access to historical data: Crypto tools make available historical data for traders which helps them greatly in decision-making. Before traders will enter into a trade, it is recommended that they study the history as many patterns repeat their selves.

  • Real-Time Data Provision: To get the current information about any crypto asset, the crypto tools go a long in giving users that information. The current price of an asset, the volume of the asset and the market capitalization of an asset can be seen via these tools at any point in time.

Do you think the tools available at the moment are efficient?
Well, the tools available at the moment solve the basic needs of most traders. Every trader has what he/she needs in the various tools though some of the tools have their limitations as well. In my opinion, the tools available at the moment are very efficient for me because the major information I need about any asset, I get it by just a click.

The truth is that more things are coming up in the crypto world and for that reason, more tools may be needed to meet up the demand of the various users who are working towards that field. So as we are more changes, it is recommended that more tools to solve the advancement we are seeking daily be developed.

Would you like to see another one that serves a different purpose?
Yes, I will want to see another one that serves a different purpose entirely. The crypto world is so large and I'm just getting started. It will be best if we can get a tool that will help people predict accurate prices as most of our predictions don't go as predicted and that leads to loss of funds in most cases. With a tool that can predict accurate next price, then trading will be more fun and easier.

TradingView is very useful and powerful tool that shows cryptocurrencies price, volume, marketcap, price changes, news related, past and upcoming events, screeners, heatmaps, and also global markets. The best thing I like about TradingView is Global Markets because it let us know what is happening in other global finanical markets. In short, it is all-in-one crypto tool.
