We already have a step-by-step guide for beginners on the best place to buy BTC.How to open a Binance account

Today, we are showing our readers how to open a Binance account to take part in this potential quadruple-digit profit opportunity.

And once you own Bitcoin and setup your Binance account, you'll be ready to capitalize on a potentially massive winner...

How to Open a Binance Account, Step 1: Visit Binance.com

The first step in opening a Binance account is to visit the website Binance.com.

Because there are malicious websites with similar names that try to access your information, we recommend bookmarking Binance.com after you visit the page.

That way, you'll have the right website saved when you use it in the future.

Always make sure that before the URL of the page, there is a lock with the word "Secure" next to it.

How to Open a Binance Account, Step 2: Create an Account

Binance account

After visiting the website, click on the "Register" button in the top-right corner.

From there, you'll be asked for your e-mail address and to create a password.

After that, a screen will appear to verify you're a human. This part can be a little confusing and frustrating because it's not thoroughly explained how to do it on Binance.

To complete verification, you will need to click on the circle and slightly move your mouse to the left. After that, a puzzle piece and an empty slot of the puzzle should appear on the screen.

The circle should also now have two green arrows.

Move the circle so that the puzzle piece on the left fits into the empty puzzle slot.

How to Open a Binance Account, Step 3: Add Extra Security

Once your account is created, two-factor authentication (2FA) will make it more secure.

With 2FA, Binance.com will ask you for a special code to type in after you've logged in with your e-mail and password.

This code is generated through an app on your smartphone called Google Authenticator. You will need to download Google Authenticator on your smartphone in order to generate the code.

How to Open a Binance Account, Step 4: Deposit Bitcoin

The easiest way to start trading on Binance is by depositing Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has more trading pairs with other coins, which we will explain in the next section.

In the top-right-hand corner of the Binance homepage, find a tab labeled "Funds." Hover over that and click on "Deposit/Withdrawals."

Search for Bitcoin, and then press the "Deposit" tab.

A unique address is created so you can send your Bitcoin to Binance.

Now, depending on how busy servers are, users have said it can take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour for the Bitcoin to appear in their accounts.

So if it doesn't show up immediately, don't worry!

And this next step is the most important...

Once your Bitcoin has deposited and cleared, hover over the "Exchange" tab in the top left corner and click "Basic."

The "Advanced" layout is less intuitive than the basic feature, and it's easy to get overwhelmed.

That's why we recommend just using the "Basic" function.

When you're in "Basic," you'll see a pairing option on the right side.

It looks like this:

This is where you set up your crypto trade.

After selecting how much LTC you want to buy, you will then be asked for an address for your Litecoin.

The Cryptocurrency Everyone Else Will Regret Not Owning

With nearly 30 years' experience in the securities industry, Tom Gentile is regarded as America's No. 1 Pattern Trader. Known as a master of developing rules-based trading strategies, he has invested millions of dollars to develop the most technologically advanced investing tools in the world.

And his readers have benefited from this breakthrough programming by being introduced to trade recommendations worth potentially millions of dollars in profits.

Starting his investment career from his parents' home in 1986, Tom quickly climbed the ranks of the American Stock Exchange (AMEX). In 1993, Tom and a group of partners stared an educational company called Optionetics, which became a leader in the field of options education.

Optionetics was sold in 2009 to OptionsXpress, and eventually to Charles Schwab. After helping to facilitate a smooth transfer to Schwab, Tom could've easily sauntered off to a cozy retirement.

But that kind of thinking is not a part of the Tom Gentile DNA.

Since 2009, Tom has taught more than 300,000 traders the specific secrets of spotting high-probability and low-risk trade opportunities, and now he is going to use his years of options experience to pick plays to share with you.

Tom is an author and co-author of over a half dozen books, including "The Options Course," "The Volatility Course," "The Index Course," and "The Stock Market Course," each of which is accompanied by a hands-on practice workbook.

Tom has appeared on financial programs featured on CNBC U.S., Europe, and Asia Squawk Box, BloombergReuters, and Fox Business Network with Neil Cavuto, and is a contributing columnist to Stocks and Commodities Magazine.

And based on what he's found now, he thinks we have the potential for a massive winner on our hands.

But Gentile would never recommend you put more than $800 or $900 dollars into any one of these trade recommendations.

Because there's risk.

There's a chance that any one of these trades could go to zero. He can't guarantee that doesn't happen once or twice.

But's let be honest here. Nothing is guaranteed - living is a risky business.

There's a risk that you'll be in an accident every time you get in the car. And it's not a little risk either. Cars kill twice as many people in the United States than guns every year. That happens - it's a fact.

Half of marriages end in divorce.

Most jobs don't work out in the long haul.

And more small businesses fail than don't.

But that doesn't mean we don't get in the car, we don't get married, create careers, and build a life.

Because what's the alternative?

You deserve a life where you aren't huddled in the corner afraid to do anything.

He's not saying you go crazy, stop wearing your seatbelt, and start juggling knives.

But at some point, you've got to choose the risks you take.

Over the last couple of years, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have made people millions of dollars.

And everything Gentile has seen leads him to believe it's creating more millionaires in 2018.

So here's the choice you have to make...

Are you going to play it safe?

Are you just going to accept that this year will be just like last year?

Are you going to accept that next January you'll be no closer to your goals than you are today?

OR, are you going to decide to take a risk? Are you going to risk a little bit of money for the chance to change it all?

Gentile thinks you deserve to take that chance.

If you agree, then it's time to find out how to act...
