Forget the fancy indicators for a moment. Let’s talk about the one thing that has saved my account more times than I can count — the MACD divergence.
I have been wrecked before. Three liquidations. 8 million lost. I have seen markets rip faces in real time.
But I have also seen something quietly whispering the truth while everyone else was shouting 'moon.'
Back in 2021, BTC at $69,000… my account was at 4M unrealized. Everyone in the group chat was drunk on euphoria, shouting for $100K. But I was watching the MACD… and those red bars were shrinking like a dying heartbeat. The price was hitting new highs, but the bars were half the size of the previous week.
At 3 a.m., I remembered how I got liquidated in 2018 watching ETH at $4,800 while the bars were deflating. I closed everything.
The next day? BTC collapsed. 58% down.
I heard the cries of people losing everything while I was safe.
👉 That’s the power of divergence.
When the market is lying to you with the price, those volume bars are whispering the truth.
Rapidly advancing — the collapse of LUNA in 2023. The whole market screaming 'Ponzi,' but in the weekly chart? The price hit a new low, but the green bars were 60% shorter. That’s the divergence at the bottom. Silently, the whales were buying. I built my position in three tranches while everyone else was selling in panic. The RWA narrative comes later — boom, 3M recovered.
🚨 Divergence at the top: new price high + shrunk volume bar = time to flee.
🚨 Divergence at the bottom: new price low + shrunk volume bar = time to buy.
And don’t get me started on the golden cross trap. Most people FOMO in at the first cross and get slaughtered. The real move is the second golden cross, confirmed on different timeframes with increasing on-chain flows. That’s the moment to strike.
I have learned brutal lessons:
✅ When the price hits new highs but the volume bars are only 70% of the last peak — use a three-step stop-loss. Cut 1/3 at the 30m break, 1/3 at 15m, and escape completely at 5m.
✅ Watch the whales. If you see a divergence at the top AND a 5M+ exit, don’t think, just cut.
✅ Respect the divergence at the bottom when everyone is terrified. That’s where fortunes are built.
Eight years. Eight iron rules. Written in blood.
People laugh at the MACD. Let them.
Those little bars saved my life — and they could save yours too.
Trade smart. Survive first. Then thrive. 🚨
