I used to be that trader—glued to the screen, chasing every green candle, panicking at every red one.
I was trading on emotion. And it was draining… mentally and financially.
Then I made one powerful shift:
I started treating trading like a job.
Clock in. Clock out. Collect the bag.
Now, I trade with a playbook—a system that brings consistency, discipline, and profit.
Here’s the 7-rule mindset that changed everything:
1. Trade After 9 PM – When the Noise Fades
Daytime markets are chaos: influencers pumping coins, whales dumping bags, and endless fakeouts.
But after 9 PM? The charts breathe.
The noise quiets. Patterns become clearer.
That’s when I clock in.
2. Take Profits Fast – Don’t Get Greedy
Hit $1,000 in gains? I secure $300 immediately.
The rest? I ride with peace of mind.
Greed kills accounts.
Discipline builds them.
3. Trust Tools, Not Emotions
Your feelings? They lie.
Your indicators? They don’t.
Here’s my trio:
MACD: Golden cross = green light.
RSI: Oversold = entry zone. Overbought? Time to chill.
Bollinger Bands: Tight squeeze = big move coming.
Two signals = time to move.
4. Stop-Loss = Survival Gear
When I’m at the screen, I trail my stops up.
When I’m off the screen, I keep a firm 3% stop-loss.
Risk control isn’t optional—it’s survival.
5. Payday is Every Friday
End of the week? I withdraw 30% of profits.
Crypto in your wallet isn’t profit.
Fiat in your bank account is.
6. Candlestick Clues = Pure Alpha
1H Chart: Two strong green candles = short-term fire.
4H Chart: Bounce from key support = entry zone.
Candlesticks tell stories.
I just learned how to read them.
7. Rookie Mistakes I Leave to Rookies
Leverage? Under 5x.
Meme coins? Fun, not funds.
Max 3 trades/day. Focus = profits.
Never use money you can’t afford to lose. Ever.
Final Word: This Isn’t Gambling—It’s a Shift.
Clock in. Trade smart. Get paid.
Crypto is volatile, but your mindset shouldn’t be.
Treat trading like a job, and it’ll start paying like one.$BTC
