Hello @Nedal . I also have one of these palms, and so have already had to work out how to look after it. I find that it does not like to be in direct sunlight, although it needs plenty of light. I keep mine in a light room away from the window. Watering needs to be done about every 4 days, and it is important to water very thoroughly so that the plant is soaked and the water is running out of the bottom of the pot.
It is also important that the plant does not sit in the water, and it should be able to drain well. The other thing this palm responds to is a regular misting to keep the leaves hydrated.
Good luck.

Hi Nedal,
Did you apply any fertilizer when you repotted your plant?
I had a similar issue, some of the fronds were turning brown, and it was related to over-fertilizing. Kindly check this thread https://www.gardening-forums.com/threads/areca-palm-leaves-turning-brown-and-yellow.19121/
