In this short segment, the host from The Art of Crypto explains that traders are not limited to buying low and selling high because they can take both long and short positions. Consequently, the only essential market condition for profitable trading is volatility. The speaker notes that markets become difficult for traders when they are stagnant, offering no price movement to exploit. Conversely, news events typically generate predictable volatility, providing clear opportunities for technical‑analysis‑based trades. On non‑news days, price action tends to be flat, often resulting in breakeven or failed trades due to the lack of a volatility catalyst.
