When I first entered the cryptocurrency world, I was like many others—I chased after rises and panicked during drops, and as a result? My account dwindled day by day, even leading me to question life itself.
Later, I realized: relying on feelings won't get you far; the only thing that could save me was a strategy so rigid it was boring. It was simple, just four steps:
1. Choose a coin: Watch MACD
I only focus on the daily MACD golden cross, and it must be on the zero line.
ETH was like this last April; after the golden cross, it surged 40% in three weeks.
I never touch underwater golden crosses; I’ve been burned by false signals.
2. Lifeline: 20-day moving average
This line is my lifeline.
If it holds → I dare to enter.
If it breaks → I liquidate without hesitation.
I used to be reluctant to sell, but the longer I waited, the bigger the losses became. Now, my mindset is much better about cutting losses when it breaks the line.
3. Position: Leave room
Not every opportunity requires all-in.
I only go all-in when a strong breakout is confirmed.
Most of the time, I only use half of my position to test the waters.
Take profits rigidly: after making 40%, I cut 1/3; after making 80%, I cut another 1/3; let the rest fly.
4. Stop-loss: Cut through the chaos
Remember this: broken lines must be cut.
Even if there’s a V-shaped rebound the next day, I never regret it. Because I know, 90% of liquidations come from hesitation.
To put it bluntly, this method is not smart at all, even downright stupid, but it works.
With it, I transformed from a 'weed' constantly played by the market into a 'seasoned veteran' who can steadily navigate.
In the crypto world, doubling your money isn't hard; the challenge is not losing your principal.
Don’t think about getting rich overnight; if you stick to discipline, you’ve already outperformed most people.
