A good crypto trading gain strategy must balance opportunity and risk management, as quick profits are possible in crypto… but so are losses. Here’s a clear and progressive approach:
---
1️⃣ Define your trading style
Above all, choose a style suited to your time and temperament:
Scalping: very short positions (a few minutes) → requires constant vigilance.
Day trading: openings/closures within the same day.
Swing trading: positions from a few days to weeks → less stress.
Position trading / long-term investment: over several months/years.
---
2️⃣ Risk management rules
Never invest more than you can afford to lose.
Risk 1 to 2% maximum of your capital per trade.
Always set a stop-loss (to limit the loss) and a take-profit (to secure the gain).
Diversify: no more than 20–30% in a single asset.
---
3️⃣ Choosing the right entry and exit points
Technical analysis: identify support/resistance, trend, chart patterns.
Key indicators: RSI (overbought/oversold), MACD (trend crossovers), volumes.
Avoid FOMO: enter on confirmation, not on rumor.
Fractional entries: enter in several times to average the price.

4️⃣ Profit-taking strategy
Withdraw part of the gains at +20% to +50% to secure.
Let the rest run if the trend is strong.
Use a trailing stop-loss to protect the profit.
---
5️⃣ Psychological discipline
Follow a plan, not emotions.
Do not trade to 'make up' after a loss.
Keep a trading journal to learn from each trade.

💡 Concrete example of a swing strategy:
1. Identify a token in an upward trend.
2. Enter on a pullback towards a key support.
3. Stop-loss 5–8% below the support.
4. Partial take-profit at +30%, the rest with trailing stop.
5. Repeat only when conditions are met.
