These days, who doesn’t study some advanced strategies in crypto trading?
But I instead relied on the most basic and simplest methods, turning 3000U into 280,000U.
Not relying on all-in bets, not chasing hot trends, and not using complex technical indicators, but based on three core ideas:
First, no all-in betting, no guessing tops, no leverage.
It sounds like a cliché, but it’s extremely difficult to do.
I have seen too many people rush in with full positions and 10x leverage because of a market wave; once the rhythm is off, the drawdown can be devastating.
I always adhere to three principles:
Single position not exceeding 30% of total capital.
Only add to positions when in profit; never average down on losing trades.
I don’t bottom fish when the market is in panic, and I don’t chase highs when there’s greed.
Yes, I don't gamble, nor do I bet on rebounds.
I only trade what I understand and follow the market trend.
Second, chase during the uptrend and withdraw during pullbacks.
No predictions, only confirmations.
When others are fearful, I don’t act blindly; I only intervene when a trend appears.
If the market hasn’t fully moved, I take part of the profit; once it’s done, I exit.
I don’t chase tops or bottom fish.
But I am present during every mid-uptrend, and I exit at the beginning of every downtrend.
Execution may seem mechanical, but it wins because of its stability.
Three, take profit and stop, don’t be greedy or cling to battles.
Many people think that earning 10% in one wave means they can earn 100%.
But I know that the market can change in less than a minute.
So I set strict profit-taking rules:
Every time I only take 5%-15% profit.
Reach your target and leave, never look back.
Small wins accumulate, more sustainable than one-time windfalls.
It’s these 'small wins' that allow me to continue growing in a volatile market.
Fourth, divide the principal into three parts, roll the funds instead of gambling with life.
I never go all in on a single trade; my account is divided into three sets of funds over the long term:
First layer: Small position to test the market.
Second layer: Gradually increase the position after the trend is clear.
Third layer: Keep as liquidity, do not participate in the current market.
This way, even if I make a wrong judgment, I still have a chance to start over.
And once the judgment is correct, I increase my positions to amplify profits, seeking steady progress.
Conclusion: Your blown account is exactly the profit others have made.
You may think I am 'conservative' and 'too slow', but the reality is:
Those with heavy positions lose due to emotions.
Those with leverage lose due to volatility.
Those who don’t control their positions never survive a bull market.
This year, I’ve seen too many smart people constantly blowing up accounts, stopping losses, and going to zero; while I just acted like a 'fool', reviewing daily, controlling positions, rolling funds, gradually increasing my account.
It’s not that I’m smarter than others; it’s that I’ve made all the mistakes and finally learned to 'slow down'.
Stop fantasizing about a single turnaround, and don’t envy others' lucky trades.
The truly profitable methods are often the simplest, yet the hardest to stick to.
