🔟 Valuable Lessons from Years of Crypto Trading Experience
💡 If you’re losing money in crypto, read this. These are the insights I wish I had from day one.
1. Coins Protected by Market Makers
When the market crashes but your coin doesn’t drop, chances are it’s being protected by market makers. These coins often have strong fundamentals or upcoming news. Hold — they may outperform later.
2. Beginner’s Guide to Moving Averages
• Short-term: Use the 5-day MA. Hold while price is above; exit when it breaks below.
• Mid-term: Follow the 20-day MA with similar rules.
Stick to simple, actionable signals — and don’t hesitate.
3. Short-Term Adjustment Strategy
• If a short-term trade stagnates for 3 days, rotate out.
• If it drops and hits a 5% loss, cut quickly.
Capital efficiency beats hope.
4. Timing Rebounds After Sharp Declines
If a coin is down 50% from highs and has dropped 9+ consecutive days, it’s likely oversold. Watch for rebound signs and buy decisively.
5. Investment Logic for Leading Coins
Focus on leading coins with strong momentum and resilience. Don’t fear high prices or steep corrections — enter when the uptrend is clear, exit on reversals.
6. Trend vs. Bottom-Fishing
Don’t obsess over catching the bottom. Downtrends can continue indefinitely. Instead, trade with the trend — entries during confirmed uptrends have higher win rates.
7. Building a Trading Strategy
One good trade doesn’t mean you’re a genius. After each profit, ask:
“Was this luck or strategy?”
Build a consistent system tailored to your style.
8. Using a Cash Position
If you’re unsure, stay in cash. Protect capital over chasing gains. Crypto is volatile — capital preservation is step one. Trade when the risk-reward ratio favors you
9. Investing in New Coins
New listings often pump from hype and inflows — but lack fundamentals. Once sentiment shifts, they crash hard. Evaluate risk carefully before jumping in.
