Now I am 38 years old, and since I was 28, I have embarked on the journey of digital currency investment. Between 2023 and 2024, my assets successfully crossed the 8-digit milestone.
Now, my quality of life has significantly improved, staying in high-end hotels around 2000 yuan, and my suitcase, hat, and other personal items may subtly incorporate unique symbols from the crypto world, showcasing my identity and taste.
Compared to the hard work of the older generation in the industrial field or the struggles of 80s e-commerce entrepreneurs, my lifestyle seems particularly pleasant and carefree. In my investment career, I have rarely been caught up in complicated business entanglements, and the troubles of life seem to have always avoided me.
In my view, the key to investing in digital currency is maintaining a good mindset; mastering technical aspects is secondary. This calmness and composure may be the secret to my success in the crypto world.
Crypto work: High win rate structure 'bottom formation.'
Bottom formations usually appear at the end of a downtrend and consist of 3 to 4 candlesticks.
This is one of the classic combinations that beginners find easiest to learn and recognize.
The larger the volume of the third bullish candle, the higher the level of reversal, making it more reliable.
Paired with a bottom doji, it is considered perfect!
1. Technical features of bottom formations.
1. Occurs in a downtrend.
2. Consisting of three candlesticks, the first is a bearish candle, the second is a low-opening small bearish candle, small bullish candle, or doji, and the third is a bullish candle.
3. The third bullish candle's body should be large enough to nearly entirely recover or envelop the body of the first bearish candle.
2. The technical meaning of bottom formations.
Bottom formations are common high-win-rate reversal signals, indicating that after a significant price drop, the short-selling energy is almost exhausted, and the price can no longer fall. The bullish candles on the right indicate that the bulls are beginning to counterattack, intuitively reflecting the contrast of buying and selling forces, thus the probability of structural reversal is very high, indicating a bullish outlook!
Bottom formations perfectly embody the short-term trend reversals described in Dow Theory.
The first bearish candle has a lower low than the previous low.
The second candlestick shows the price stabilization and consolidation.
The third bullish candle has a higher high than the previous high.
3. Practical Logic
The first bearish candle is like a car driving on the road; the candle's drop is akin to speed, while trading volume is like power. The smaller the drop, the slower the speed; the smaller the volume, the less downward power.
The second candlestick shows the entire process of a car braking, stopping, and turning around.
The third candlestick is bullish, and like the first bearish candle, the size of the bullish candle's increase and trading volume represent speed and momentum. The larger the increase, the faster the speed; the larger the volume, the stronger the bullish momentum.
Feedback in the trend indicates that when the currency price drops to a certain extent, the bears become exhausted and can no longer lower prices, allowing the bulls to counterattack and reverse the trend. Thus, traders can follow up with buying when a bottom formation appears!
Special Reminder:
When bottom formations and ascending flags appear simultaneously, the probability of a future rally is very high, and it is also an important signal for identifying the end of a flag pattern. Strike while the iron is hot; we will discuss ascending flags tomorrow!
Directly talk about crypto trading tricks (bookmark).
Six don't invest, four don't let go:
Six don't invest:
1. For currencies that keep falling and have not stabilized around the 60-day moving average, we should avoid touching them. Follow the trend; for currencies that continue to decline, let’s wait and see when they turn around.
2. Don't buy currencies that suddenly rise after good news. When good news comes, it often signals a sell-off; currencies that have already risen significantly are likely to have major players trying to cash out.
3. If a currency rises too sharply and is far from the 5-day moving average, don’t chase it. Currencies that rise too quickly also have high risks, and chasing high prices can lead to being trapped.
4. Don't take risks with currencies that suddenly spike at high prices. High gaps carry significant risks, as it may indicate that major players are quietly selling off.
5. Avoid currencies with turnover rates exceeding 30%. A high turnover rate indicates fierce fighting between bulls and bears, so it's best to stay away from such volatile markets.
6. Don't be fooled by currencies that are still holding up in a bad environment. If the market is bad and the currency is still trying to rise, it’s likely a trick.
Four don't let go:
1. If the RSI is between 50 and 80, continue holding. An RSI in the middle to high range indicates that this currency still has strength; hold on for more profits.
2. For currencies that jump from low positions, don’t rush to sell. A gap up indicates strong bullish momentum; wait to see if it can continue to rise.
3. For currencies trending upwards, hold tightly. Following the trend, the longer you hold a currency in a rising market, the more you will earn.
4. For currencies with concentrated chips, don’t sell easily. If chips are piled together, the main force may still want to raise the price; it’s not too late to sell at a high point.
Crypto trading tips: Trading cryptocurrency must follow rules and cannot rely solely on instincts.
Seeing the trend clearly is much more reliable than guessing blindly!
Three major perspectives, ninety-nine essential sentences! The secrets of trading cryptocurrencies that big players won't tell you.
In the crypto world, a day is like a year in the human world; this statement is not an exaggeration. Many people want to hop on this speeding train, but risks and benefits coexist.
On clear days, I often receive messages in the background asking what to do if this currency drops today or whether to sell that currency tomorrow. I sense a kind of panic and confusion when facing the unpredictable crypto market.
Today, I will share a valuable insight from three perspectives: news, technology, and mindset; it's very suitable for newcomers in the crypto world who are feeling lost.
1. News Section
1. Finding ways to gather first-hand information is essential for success; analyzing major consulting media in the crypto space is particularly important.
2. Most media are business agents for large investors and are also investment advisors for retail investors.
3. Understanding the characteristics of different industries is the key to profit opportunities.
4. Sometimes buying against expert opinions is also a unique speculative approach!
5. Before investing, you must prepare well; it’s essential to have knowledge of financial basics and domestic and international trends and political dynamics. Detailed analysis of the team and practical applications is key.
6. Buy or sell when news breaks, and sell or buy when the news is confirmed.
7. You must research and judge the market yourself; don't change your decision based on unverified rumors.
8. If a team has issues, the product will likely have issues; it's better to act less.
9. Any direct investment requires professional knowledge as a foundation.
10. Those who claim to have accurate predictions are often losers.
11. Inaccurate news leads to losses; the most futile behavior is trying to guess the psychology of large investors and traders.
12. When purchasing, understand the relationship between the issuer's profit potential and the current market conditions.
13. This circle is small, but that doesn't mean there aren't circles; knowing a few big players is very helpful.
14. Don't let sudden news change your original intentions to buy or sell.
15. When good news is exhausted, it becomes bad news; when bad news is exhausted, it becomes good news.
16. Institutions have their own codes; for example, an order of '232323' might indicate a sell-off. Each institution is different, so it’s necessary to research.
17. Don't join small secret circles; if you do, you will only bring ears and brains.
18. If the white paper lacks specific content and a research and development team, it is highly likely to be a scam coin.
19. Whether a project is open-source is key; generally, open-source projects will be uploaded to GitHub. If not, caution is advised.
2. Technical Section
20. Following the right currency means you have already succeeded half the way.
21. Large investors often have unexpected strategies that deceive inexperienced retail investors to facilitate their own buying and selling. You must accurately analyze trading volume patterns.
22. The timing of buying is the most crucial aspect of virtual currency investment.
23. A decline of more than one-third is a warning sign.
24. The three steps of rising: bottom formation—breakthrough—surge!
25. If the index updates for three consecutive days but trading volume decreases each time, the future may not be good.
26. Currencies that have risen significantly will inevitably see a substantial drop, and if the drop exceeds 50%, there is a high probability of a 30% rebound.
27. It is common for small investors to be trapped by large investors, so diversified investment is crucial.
28. The rise and fall of an index is not random; it is much simpler than the patterns of a lottery. Proper screenshots and analysis are crucial!
29. Those that rise first will also likely fall first.
30. Avoid excessive switching in buying and selling; don't act rashly when in doubt, and respond to changes with stability.
31. A surge in trading volume with stable prices is a signal of nearing the top; at this time, 'leaving is the best strategy.'
32. The longer a currency hovers in a low range, the greater the upward potential, with a probability of rising 30% exceeding 70%.
33. To judge growth or decline, one must look at the gap with the trend of the times; policy is the biggest risk, yet it is still necessary.
34. Trading volume is like a pulse; you can see if it is sick.
35. Choosing the right time to buy is far more important than simply choosing a good currency; knowing how to sell is a hundred times stronger than knowing how to buy.
36. Don't put all your financial resources into one investment.
37. Avoid thinking that low prices mean high potential; when speculating, know that once a reversal occurs, it will be difficult to sell, and the decline may be significant.
38. Buying assets with slightly lower profit potential at a lower price may be more cost-effective than buying those with slightly better profit potential.

51. You must understand the 'Sunday Theory'; many currencies rise on this day.
52. Robots should still be purchased, as they react faster than human brains.

69. A sudden surge in volume usually has two possibilities: either the market maker is supporting the price or institutions are buying; at this time, you should follow the trend.
70. After reaching a new level, there is generally a washout in the market; at this point, getting off may mean waiting for the next bus.
71. It's not impossible to get rich in the crypto world with 10 yuan; luck is also a key factor.
72. When encountering a major pullback, it is an opportunity to buy a little.
