This might save you 10 years of pain.
Forget all the fancy indicators for a second. Let me share the one thing that’s saved my account again and again —
MACD divergence.
I’ve been wrecked.
3 liquidations. Lost $8 million.
I’ve watched the market destroy people in seconds.
But while the crowd screamed “moon,” something quiet was showing me the truth — the MACD bars.

Flashback to 2021 — BTC hit $69,000.
My account was $4 million up (unrealized).
Everyone was shouting “$100K soon!”
But I looked at the MACD.
Price was rising, but the red bars were shrinking — like a dying heartbeat.
I remembered 2018. I watched ETH at $4,800 while MACD bars faded… and I got liquidated.
At 3AM, I closed everything.
Next day — BTC dropped 58%.
I was safe. Others lost everything.
👉 That’s the power of divergence.
When price lies, those little bars tell the truth.

In 2023, during the LUNA crash — everyone screamed “Ponzi.”
But I saw something on the weekly MACD:
Price made a lower low, but the green bars were shorter.
That’s bottom divergence.
It means smart money is buying.
I bought in 3 small chunks while the market panicked.
Later, RWA hype came in — boom. I recovered $3M.

Simple rules to remember:
🚨 Top divergence = get out.
(New price high + smaller red/green MACD bars)
🚨 Bottom divergence = time to buy.
(New price low + smaller bars)
⚠️ Golden cross trap:
Don’t FOMO the first golden cross.
The real move is the second cross — when it lines up on multiple timeframes and volume rises. That’s when you enter strong.

Iron rules I’ve learned (the hard way):
✅ If price makes a new high but MACD bars are only 70% of the last top — use a 3-step exit plan:
– Cut 1/3 on 30m breakdown
– Another 1/3 on 15m
– Exit all on 5m
✅ If you see top divergence + $5M+ whale outflow — cut immediately. Don’t think twice.
✅ Bottom divergence during fear = opportunity. That’s where real money is made.

8 years. 8 rules. Paid for in blood.
People laugh at MACD — let them.
Those small bars saved my life. They might save yours too.
Trade smart.
Survive first. Then thrive. $BTC
