Trader vs Analyst: What is the difference between the two? There are many seemingly good analysts that are not profitable in the market. The reason is that analyst and trader/portfolio manager are two different job roles. The reason is that they require two separate sets of skills. Being a good technical analyst boils down to experience and knowledge. Whereas, being a good trader is related to strong psychology and having a trader’s mindset.

Being an analyst requires a certain level of intellect, numeracy, and mathematical skills. In crypto trading, fundamental analysts must go through a large number of pieces of data from white papers (add here what Amish wrote for fundamental analysis).

With little to no confidence, an individual will not be able to let a certain trade breathe and take its time towards targets because they’ll become busy doubting themselves. Similarly, with little confidence, a running losing trade would be difficult to close because that would shake their confidence about their analysis and their ability to be “right”.

Traders have to disassociate making money from being right. Losses are inevitable, and great traders understand it, as trading is a probability game. In the long run, if the odds are in one’s favor (i.e., the risk-reward ratio), the trader will become profitable, knowing that losses will occur over time.

For Trader vs Analyst concept, it boils down to how you manage your trading.

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
