Smartness can backfire; in the crypto world, surviving relies on 'simple methods'.
When I first entered the market, I studied all kinds of technical indicators and candlestick patterns, memorizing MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands, and more.
As a result, when I finally started trading, I bought aggressively and cut losses quickly; my account barely moved for an entire year, and the net value curve was as flat as a stopped ECG.
Until one day during a casual chat, an experienced trader told me:
'It's not that you don't understand enough; you understand too much, which has hindered you instead. If you want to make money, you have to learn to be a bit simpler.'
He advised me to try an incredibly basic method—
not to guess the top or the bottom, but to buy in batches slowly and let it roll.
I skeptically followed his advice:
I started with a small position, added 10% if it dropped, and once the trend was confirmed, I added a bit more, leaving the rest to time and volatility to amplify profits.
In this way, I started with only 100,000 and rolled it into eight figures over two years, without a single blow-up, but steadily increasing for two years.
Later I realized that the hard part wasn't learning 'advanced techniques', but being able to resist the urge to make random moves and sticking to a rigid pace throughout.
The vast majority of people can't do this, not because they're stupid, but because they want a quick turnaround too much.
However, in the crypto world, patience and execution are the most valuable assets.
If you're still chasing highs and lows, trying to catch hundred-fold gains every day,
it might be better to stop and allow yourself to be 'simpler'.
Maybe you'll discover that the simple methods are the quickest path to longevity.
A proper method + stable execution + a good team to set the pace is far better than being busy on your own! Those who want to turn things around will find me without needing to say more.
