Brothers, after struggling in the crypto space for these years, I've seen too many people get rubbed by the market because they stubbornly stick to a certain cycle of candlesticks. Today, I’m sharing my secret weapon — the multi-cycle candlestick trading method, which has three steps to directly grasp the trend, price levels, and timing!

1. 4-Hour Candlestick: The 'Stabilizing Pillar' of Trend
This thing is like a GPS for the crypto space, helping you find the right direction amid all the fluctuations. Don’t underestimate this 4-hour candlestick; it filters out intraday noise and makes the trend clear:
Uptrend: Highs and lows rise like steps, and during this time, pullbacks are opportunities to make money; be decisive and buy low!
Downtrend: Highs and lows slide down, and rebounds are like crocodile tears; don’t get too excited, finding opportunities to short is the right path.
Sideways consolidation: Prices bounce back and forth within a range, and frequent trading at this time just sends transaction fees to the exchange; it's recommended to lay back and watch the show.
Remember, in the crypto space, following the trend is the way to profit; going against the trend is just making a joke out of real money!
2. 1-Hour Candlestick: Precisely Locating the 'Battlefield'
With the big direction set, the 1-hour candlestick is our 'battle map'. At this time, focus on finding support and resistance levels:
Trend lines, moving averages, previous lows are like the market's 'moat'; when prices approach these levels, there is often support, which is a potential entry point;
Previous highs and key resistance levels, combined with top patterns, signal retreat; take profit when necessary and reduce positions when needed.
3. 15-Minute Candlestick: The 'Last Second' to Pull the Trigger
Do not use the 15-minute candlestick to judge trends; it is only responsible for helping you find the best entry timing! It's like a sniper waiting for the prey to show a flaw; we need to wait for these signals:
When key price levels show engulfing patterns, bottom divergence, or golden cross signals, that is the right time to take action;
Pay attention to trading volume! Breakouts without volume are just tricks; they could very likely be false breakouts, and you must see an increase in volume before entering.
Multi-Cycle Combined Practical Guidelines
Set Direction: First look at the trend on the 4-hour chart, whether to go long or short is clear in your mind;
Draw Circles: Mark support and resistance areas on the 1-hour chart to lock in the entry range;
Wait for Signals: When a reversal signal appears on the 15-minute chart, decisively pull the trigger!
A Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls from Bloody Losses
When several cycles' directions conflict, don’t force your way in; staying out and observing is better than losing money;
Small cycles fluctuate quickly, so be sure to set stop-losses; otherwise, you’ll get swept out every minute;
Trend, position, and timing are all essential; don’t rely on feelings to guess; using this method is the way to go!
I have been using this method for over two years, and it has become my 'trading muscle memory'. To be honest, there is no trading holy grail; the key is to review more, summarize more, and turn these methods into your own.
