Bloody summary! The three "anti-human" rules for stable profits in virtual currency, 90% of people die at this step!
Having been in the crypto world for 6 years, from getting liquidated due to leverage to now achieving a stable monthly return of 15%, I have summarized a painful truth: Making money in crypto is always for the "minority" — not because they are smarter, but because they dare to go against human nature, stick to the rules, and treat technology as a "lifesaving talisman".
Today, I will tear apart all the "get-rich-quick myths" and share my bloody experiences: To survive in the crypto world and make stable money, you must master these three "anti-human" rules.
______
Rule One: Technology is not mysticism; it is your "bulletproof vest" — 99% of losers can't even understand K-lines!
What is the most common mistake beginners make? They enter the market shouting, "I want to go all in," only looking at price fluctuations without distinguishing between "support" and "resistance". I have seen too many people, when Bitcoin reached 60,000, thinking it could hit 100,000, but when it dropped to 30,000, they cried while cutting losses, only to realize: they were just "puppets on strings" of big money.
True technical analysis treats K-lines as "ECGs". Don’t believe in nonsense about "golden crosses and silver crosses"; remember these three hardcore operations:
Trend lines set the direction: Use the 30-day moving average to draw the life and death line — if the price is above the average, only go long; if it falls below the average, immediately go to cash and wait for opportunities. Last year, when Ethereum rose from 1800 to 2800, I locked in 80% profit using this line.
Support and resistance are the "life and death switches": Use Fibonacci retracement to find previous highs and lows, for example, Bitcoin oscillates around the "golden ratio" (0.618) at 30,000; every time it falls below here, I dare to buy the dip because historical data tells me: 90% of crashes will not break key support in one go.
MACD + Bollinger Bands = "Top Escape Artifact": When MACD forms a death cross at a high position + the upper Bollinger Band opens downward, no matter how fierce the rise is, clear the position immediately! When Bitcoin surged to 30,000 in May this year, I escaped the crash using this tactic, while the 'dead bulls' around me are still stuck.
Remember: Technical analysis is not about predicting the future; it’s about letting you "understand the danger signals". Those who don’t understand technology are like driving blindfolded — it’s not a matter of when you will crash into a wall; it’s a matter of crashing as soon as you get in!
______
Rule Two: Position management is more important than technology — being greedy by 10% can lead to a fast zeroing of your account!
I have seen the most ridiculous operations: Some people use all their savings to buy altcoins, adding positions at a 10% rise and getting liquidated at a 20% drop. This kind of "gambler's trading" essentially hands over fate to the market rather than taking control themselves.
True stable profit relies on "pyramidal position management". How exactly to do it?
Initial position should not exceed 10%: No matter how optimistic you are about a coin, start with 10% of your funds. For example, if you have 100,000, buy only 10,000 the first time. If it rises, use the "decreasing position increase method" — increase by 5% after a 10% rise, then increase by 3% after another 10% rise, leave the remaining 2% for "scooping up bargains"; if it falls, stop loss immediately, and never increase your position!
Dynamic stop loss = lifesaver: Don’t believe the nonsense about "long positions"; the crypto market changes every day. My principle is: set a 5% stop loss for short-term trades, 10% for medium-term trades, and 20% for long-term holdings (over 3 months). Last year, I held ADA (Cardano) and managed to preserve my capital by setting a 15% stop loss before it crashed by 30%.
Always keep 30% cash: At the craziest times in the market, cash is the "nuclear weapon". In March this year, when Silicon Valley Bank collapsed, Bitcoin plummeted 25%, and I used this 30% cash to buy the dip, making a 40% profit in half a month — while those fully invested could only watch the opportunity slip away.
Remember: The core of position management is "survival". You think earning 100% requires doubling your investment, but losing 50% only requires another 50% loss to hit zero. As long as you have green mountains, you don't need to worry about firewood — this saying is a hard rule in the crypto world!
______
Rule Three: Human nature is the biggest "big player" — 90% of losses come from "impatience" and "overexcitement"!
I used to be an "emotional slave": Seeing others post about earning 50%, I would immediately chase and buy; when my account was in the green, I would feel elated, and when it turned red, I couldn’t sleep in panic. It wasn’t until I lost 50% of my capital that I realized: The biggest opponent in the crypto world is the "greedy beast" and "fear monster" within yourself.
How to overcome human nature? Remember these three "anti-human operations":
Write a "trading script" in advance: Before the market opens each day, write down the "buy/sell logic, position, and stop-loss" on paper. For example: "Buy ETH, reason: Breakthrough at 2000 resistance; position: 5%; stop-loss: 1950". In the afternoon, regardless of how crazy it rises or how badly it falls, just execute according to the script — those who can't resist the urge to trade are not worthy of making money.
Force shutdown during a crash: I have three market tracking apps on my phone, but when the drop exceeds 10%, I will uninstall the apps, go running or play games, and wait until my emotions calm down before looking again. Last year, when Bitcoin dropped 20% in one day, I turned off my phone, and the next day found it had rebounded by 5% — those who couldn’t hold on and cut losses suffered even worse than I did.
Self-hypnosis when profitable: Don’t be happy with a 10% profit, and don’t get inflated with a 50% profit. I regularly transfer profits out of the crypto world into stocks, funds, or even savings accounts. Because I know: Money in crypto is "paper wealth"; only when it’s in hand is it true gold and silver.
Remember: In the crypto world, "rationality" is the most scarce luxury. If you can control your emotions, you can control your account; if you can control your desires, you can control your life.
______
Lastly, let's be frank:
The crypto world has never been a "get-rich casino" but a "human nature battlefield". Technology is a tool, position is a strategy, human nature is fundamental — stable profits are never based on "gambling", but on a "system".
If you are still losing money, it’s not because you are stupid; it’s because you haven’t learned to "counter human nature": counter greed, counter fear, counter laziness.
Remember: Those who survive in the crypto world are always those who "stick to the rules and respect the market".
