Treat Trading Crypto Like a Job — Clock In, Clock Out, Get Paid
In my early trading days, I was like most beginners—glued to the screen 24/7, chasing pumps, panic-selling dips, and losing sleep over every candle. It was chaos. Then I developed a simple system—and stuck to it.
That system changed everything.
1. Trade After 9 PM
Daytime brings noisy news and fakeouts. I only start trading after 9 PM when the market calms, and price action becomes clearer. Less noise = better decisions.
2. Lock in Profits Quickly
Stop dreaming of 5x every trade. If you earn $1000 in a session, withdraw at least $300 to your bank. Play with the rest. Greed kills gains—discipline secures them.
3. Trade Based on Indicators, Not Emotion
Install TradingView and check these before entering a trade:
• MACD: Look for golden or death crosses.
• RSI: Overbought or oversold levels show timing.
• Bollinger Bands: Contractions = setups, breakouts = trades.
At least two indicators must align before I act.
4. Be Smart With Stop-Losses
If you’re watching the market, move your stop up as your position gains. If not, set a fixed 3% stop-loss to protect yourself from surprises.
5. Withdraw Weekly
Every Friday, I transfer 30% of profits to my bank. It’s not real until it’s in your pocket. Let the rest compound.
6. Master the Candlesticks
• For quick trades, use the 1-hour chart—two strong bullish candles? Go long.
• For trend setups, use the 4-hour chart—watch price near support.
7. Avoid Rookie Mistakes
• Keep leverage under 5x (max 10x if experienced).
• Skip meme coins—no Doge, no SHIB.
• Limit trades to 3/day to stay focused.
• Never, ever trade borrowed money.
Clock in, trade with intention, cash out. That’s how pros survive—and thrive—in crypto.
