The future is in your own hands.
Let me share a feasible plan. If you can execute it, making several thousand into tens of thousands in the cryptocurrency market by 2025 is achievable. Below, I will share my proven method: quickly increasing several thousand to 10w, with the only method being: (rolling positions)!
Step 1: Initially exchange your several thousand into U and divide it into three parts!
Step 2: Make contracts in three parts +, with a multiplier of 100, each position at 60%, fully invested, just trade Bitcoin or Ethereum, operation time: evening.
Between 9:30 PM and 4 AM!
Step 3: Make three contracts. Normally, if you win all three, your initial amount can reach several thousand U. If there's a big market movement, it can reach tens of thousands U.
Step four: Continue the operations from the previous day, dividing the principal into three parts, and perform the same operation three times!
1. Build a solid foundation: Start with small funds and practice basic skills
The starting point for success lies in solid basic skills. Both users and 'Killer Four' emphasize that turning small funds into large ones is not an overnight success but requires starting from the basics. This includes:
Familiarize yourself with market rules: Understand the leverage mechanism, liquidation rules, trading fees, etc., in contract trading to avoid mistakes due to unfamiliarity with the rules.
Understand trading varieties: Research the characteristics of mainstream currencies (like Bitcoin, Ethereum) and hot coins (like BCH, PEPE), and choose assets you are familiar with.
Establish a trading system: Formulate a clear trading plan, including entry points, stop-loss points, take-profit points, and capital management rules.
Accumulate experience: Familiarize yourself with market fluctuations and your psychological responses through small real trades.
User suggestion: "Basic skills are solid, including familiarity with market rules, understanding trading varieties, having a complete trading system, rich trading experience, and being able to take advantage of significant market movements. Only by integrating these can one achieve great results." This means that before retail investors pursue high returns, they must first practice their internal skills.
Practical suggestion: If you are a beginner, take out 100-200 USDT and conduct a few simulated trades under low leverage (3x-5x) to feel the market rhythm and find a trading style that suits you.
2. Capital management: Start with small fund challenges and roll over gradually.
Small funds are not an excuse for recklessness. "Having small capital is not an excuse for randomness, nor is it a reason. Even if the capital is small, if it is your entire fortune, you need to practice cautious trading with low leverage, not go all in, but start from small funds." Here are specific strategies:
Diversified operations, reduce risks.
If you have 50,000 USDT, take out 2,000 USDT as challenge funds, aiming to grow it from 2,000 to 50,000.
If you only have 5,000 USDT, challenge to grow 200 USDT to 5,000.
This method keeps risks within an acceptable range and avoids investing all funds at once, which could lead to liquidation.
Roll over growth, extract principal.
After successfully completing the challenge (for example, growing from 2000 to 50,000), withdraw the principal (2,000 USDT) and part of the profit (for example, 20,000), leaving the remaining funds (30,000) for further challenges.
Once you achieve one success, subsequent challenges will become much easier. This rolling method gradually expands the capital scale while protecting the principal.
Avoid going all in.
User warning: "If you only have 50,000, going all in with 50,000 is likely to lead to a loss of control over your mindset, ultimately resulting in a liquidation to zero after one mistake."
Going all in with high leverage can lead to total loss of funds, making it difficult to grow small funds afterward.
Practical case: Endurance started with 20,000 USDT, the first order used 5x leverage to go long on BCH, doubling the funds to 40,000, and then through rolling operations achieved 1 million in 22 days, ultimately reaching 10 million in four months. The key to this step-by-step growth lies in starting with small challenges and gradually accumulating capital.
3. Trading strategy: Primarily focus on low leverage and follow the trend to catch hotspots.
Low leverage and market hotspots are key. How to achieve capital growth through reasonable leverage and hotspots.
Low leverage operations to control risks.
Endurance mentioned: "Except for that BCH trade with 5x, I have used 5x for Bitcoin, and all other operations have been 3, 2, or 1 times leverage."
"Low leverage cautious trading is essential."
High leverage (over 10x) can amplify profits but also carries a high risk of liquidation. Retail investors should primarily use 1-3 times leverage and only use 5 times leverage in high certainty opportunities (like BCH hotspots).
Stay close to market hotspots and follow the trend.
Endurance shared last year's successful experience: "Market hotspots are memes and AI, and before these two hotspots, inscriptions had a second spring. Everyone has shifted from speculating on the inscriptions themselves to speculating on the associated teams behind them. BSV BCH has entered my watchlist."
Specific operations include:
BCH long position: 5x leverage to go long, funds doubled from 20,000 to 40,000.
AI sector: Focus on WLD, avoid other high-risk coins.
Meme sector: Mainly work with PEPE, perform wave trading (long at support, break through resistance), and seize upward trends.
BNB new launch: After the new CEO took office, BNB made small upward steps before each Launchpool, profiting multiple times with low leverage (1-3 times).
Bitcoin/Ethereum whack-a-mole: short at high points, long at low points, operate within 5x leverage.
CRV liquidation event: short first then long, 2x leverage, doubling large funds.
Flexible trading, unconstrained.
Users emphasize: "I can do breakouts or ranges; the key lies in my thoughts and considerations about the market at that time."
Retail investors should adjust strategies according to market conditions:
Trend market: Break through key points (such as going long at resistance levels and going short at support levels).
In a fluctuating market: high selling at high points and low buying at low points.
4. Seize major opportunities: Wait for high risk-reward ratios and strike decisively.
High-risk high-reward opportunities require patience. "How to turn small funds into large ones? Use money you can afford to lose and patiently wait for opportunities with the best risk-reward ratios, at least 1 to 10 or higher, and strike decisively.
High risk-reward opportunities: Users mentioned: "To earn big, you must accept the speculative costs caused by rule-based stop-losses if the trend does not meet expectations after each explosive point bet."
Practical case:
"Cool Xi" and "Reincarnation" traders have achieved explosive capital increases within a few days using extremely high leverage (over 100x).
Speculative strategy: "In the crypto world, how can small funds turn over? Use leverage over 10 times + explosive market points + go all in to catch big fish. Besides this, there are no other ways." But he also reminds that such high-risk operations require acceptance of possible stop-loss costs.
Practical suggestion: Split the funds into two parts, 80% for low-leverage steady operations, and 20% for high-risk-reward opportunities (above 1:10). During hotspots (like inscriptions hot, meme hot), use this part of the funds to try 5-10 times leverage, but strictly set stop-loss.
5. Risk control: Stop-loss and take-profit to protect profits.
Risk management is key to survival. Emphasize the following points:
Set stop-losses, accept speculative costs
User: "After each explosive point bet, if the trend does not meet expectations, resulting in a rule-based stop-loss, this is a speculative cost."
Retail investors must set stop-loss points (e.g., exit if losing 10%-20%) before each trade to avoid emotional resistance that could lead to liquidation.
Lock in profits.
Endurance took decisive profits after doubling BCH and then rolled over operations to avoid profit loss.
It is recommended to withdraw the principal and part of the profits after a successful challenge to protect existing gains.
Avoid high leverage to zero.
The big players admit: "I know one thing: if I use high leverage, I will end up back to zero again."
High leverage can bring huge profits but can also wipe out funds instantly; retail investors should prioritize stability.
Practical suggestion: Set stop-losses (e.g., 10%) and take-profits (e.g., 50%) for each trade. For example, when trading with 200 USDT, exit when losing 20 USDT or gaining 100 USDT, ensuring that risks are controllable.
6. Mindset and discipline: From small victories to great victories.
Mindset determines success or failure. Mindset management is key to success:
Build confidence from small funds.
"Achieving challenges can significantly boost confidence."
Users established confidence for subsequent operations from the first order growing from 20,000 to 40,000.
Avoid losing control of your mindset.
Big players say: "Going all in can easily lead to a loss of control over one's mindset, and after one mistake, liquidation to zero."
Retail investors need to stay calm and avoid being overwhelmed by short-term losses or profits.
Continuous learning and adjustment.
If a small fund challenge fails, it indicates that there is a problem with the trading system or mindset. Continue practicing with small amounts until you find your rhythm.
Practical suggestion: Treat trading as a marathon rather than a sprint; record insights from each small victory (like 200 to 500 USDT) and gradually enhance psychological endurance.
7. Practical case of endurance: From 20,000 to 10 million paths
The experience of growing from 20,000 USDT to 10 million USDT provides valuable reference.
Phase one: 20,000 to 40,000 (BCH doubles)
Seize the BCH hotspot, go long with 5x leverage, and double your funds.
Key: Closely follow the market trend (related speculation on inscriptions) and act decisively.
Phase two: 40,000 to 1 million (22 days)
Multi-sector layout (AI, Meme, BNB new launches), 1-3 times leverage.
Key: Diversify hotspots, follow the trend, and grow steadily.
Phase three: 1 million to 10 million (4 months)
Seize major events (like CRV liquidation), Bitcoin/Ethereum range trading, within 2x leverage.
Key: Low leverage steady operations, protect profits, wait for significant market movements.
8. Summary and Action Suggestions
Retail investors can grow from small funds through contract trading, focusing on the following principles:
Build a solid foundation: Familiarize yourself with the rules and establish a trading system.
Capital management: Start with small challenges and roll over growth.
Trading strategy: Primarily low leverage, follow the trend to catch hotspots.
High risk-reward ratio: Patiently wait for opportunities above 1:10 and strike decisively.

Gradually amplify: Repeat the above steps, waiting for significant market movements (like 1:10 opportunities) and using part of the funds to try 5 times leverage.
Here are trading strategies with over 80% win rates that I spent two years, hundreds of days and nights, drawing thousands of charts, and summarizing these top trend continuation chart patterns. Once mastered, the crypto world will be your "ATM."
In trading, you do not always need an extremely complex or professional method to achieve success. Instead, you only need an effective strategy. Using one of the oldest and simplest trading tools — moving averages — might be a good start.
If you are a scalper or using other short-term strategies, using moving averages on the 15-minute chart is highly recommended. Among them, the 20 EMA (exponential moving average) is the best moving average for the 15-minute chart, as the price follows the moving average trend most accurately over several days. In other words, you can easily identify trends through it.
How does the 20 EMA strategy work?
The main advantage of the 20 EMA trading strategy is that even novice traders can easily get started. The only tool you need is the 20 EMA, and it is applicable to any currency pair and any time period.
In a downtrend, the overall expectation is for the price to decline. However, at some point, you will see the price change direction to test the 20 EMA line. If the downtrend is strong enough, the 20 EMA will push the price back down. This phenomenon is called a "pullback," which may occur once or several times until the 20 EMA is effectively broken.
Therefore, the core function of the 20 EMA strategy is to act as a 'rebound line' for the candlesticks. As a trader, you should wait and take advantage of the moment when the price pulls back to the 20 EMA line.
Here is a key detail to note: You only need to focus on a very specific candlestick — the first one that touches the EMA line after the price deviates from the 20 EMA for some time. Remember, if the next candlestick continues along the EMA line, that is not a good signal. Once you capture the correct signal, that is a good time to open a position.
For example:
The basic principles of the 20 EMA strategy are as follows:
When the price closes above the 20 EMA, the market is in an uptrend; when the price closes below the 20 EMA, the market is in a downtrend.
When the trend changes direction, the first candlestick that touches the 20 EMA is called the signal candlestick. You only need to focus on this candlestick, as your entry position depends on the highest and lowest points of this signal candlestick.
In an uptrend, you should set buy stop-loss orders a few points (1-2 points) above the highest point of the signal candlestick. If the next candlestick does not trigger your order, you should cancel that order.
Conversely, in a downtrend, you should set sell stop-loss orders a few points (1-2 points) below the lowest point of the signal candlestick. If the next candlestick does not trigger the order, you should cancel that order.
In long trades, the stop-loss should be set a few points (at least 5-10 points, depending on the time period you are using) below the lowest point of the signal candlestick; in short trades, the stop-loss should be set a few points above the highest point of the signal candlestick.
Here is an example of establishing a short position based on the previous chart:
In the above chart, the lowest point of the signal candlestick on the EUR/USD 15-minute chart is 1.09087, so the sell stop-loss order is set 2 points below it. The next candlestick continues to drop, triggering the order at 1.09067. According to the rules, the stop-loss is set 10 points above the signal candlestick, at 1.09167. As for the take-profit, in this case, a 1:2 risk-reward ratio is used, so the take-profit is set 20 points below the entry price, at 1.08867.
Use the daily chart to identify the main trend.
You definitely do not want to recklessly enter the market when the trend is unclear, risking losses. This is why some traders choose to filter the market by switching to other time periods. They hope to identify trends early and ensure the trend is strong enough. Once they confirm the price direction on the daily chart, finding entry opportunities on the 15-minute chart becomes much easier.
What should be done?
First, to identify trends, you need to set a few rules on the chart. The goal is to discern the direction of price movement. Don't worry, these rules apply to both uptrends and downtrends, and are equally effective across different time periods:
◎ Ensure the price has been rising or falling continuously for several days, and that at least one higher low (HL) appears in an uptrend, or at least one lower high (LH) appears in a downtrend.
◎ In an uptrend, the 20 EMA line should show an upward angle of 2 o'clock or steeper; in a downtrend, the 20 EMA should show a downward angle of 4 o'clock.
◎ In an uptrend, prices should significantly break through resistance; in a downtrend, prices should significantly break down support.
After this, switch to a 15-minute chart and focus on potential buying conditions under the following two upward trends:
1. Breakthroughs in support/resistance on the daily chart.
If the price is clearly following the 20 EMA, it indicates it is in an ideal trading position.
2. Large fluctuations in support/resistance areas.
This situation is relatively safer, as the price has confirmed its momentum and continues to move in the expected direction. Therefore, when the price touches and stabilizes near the 20 EMA, it is a good time to enter.
How to use the 20 EMA to find quality entry points.
Using the 20 EMA (exponential moving average) to determine a quality entry point is relatively simple. First, identify the trend, find support and resistance, and then enter when the price pulls back to these levels.
1. Identify trends.
Using the 20 EMA indicator to identify trends is quite straightforward. You only need to observe the position of the EMA line relative to the current price movement.
◎ If the EMA line is below the current price, it indicates an uptrend.
◎ Conversely, if the EMA line is above the current price, it indicates a downtrend.
2. Look for support or resistance
Once you have determined the current trend, the next step is to identify important support or resistance levels. As previously emphasized, we focus on the dynamic support and resistance from the 20 EMA line.
◎ In a downtrend, the 20 EMA line acts as a resistance level.
◎ Conversely, in an uptrend, the 20 EMA line acts as a support level.
3. Wait for a pullback.
Next, you need to patiently wait for the price to pull back to support or resistance levels, or to near the 20 EMA line.
This phase is very important and is often overlooked by many novice traders. They may think that once the trend direction is clear, they can enter the market immediately.
However, in practice, even when the trend direction is very clear, we still need to patiently wait for a pullback. This waiting time is crucial for optimizing the risk-reward ratio of trading setups.
4. Entry confirmation
There are two ways to confirm entry: using price action or technical indicators.
◎ Price action confirmation: Observe chart patterns or candlestick patterns. Common chart patterns include double tops/bottoms, head and shoulders tops/bottoms, triple tops/bottoms, etc. Common candlestick patterns include engulfing patterns, pin bars, inside bars, etc.
◎ Technical indicator confirmation: You can use tools like the stochastic indicator, relative strength index (RSI), MACD, etc.
When using this trading strategy, be sure to focus on the following aspects:
1. Only enter when the market is trending.
Entering trades when the market is in a clear and established trend can significantly increase the probability of trading success. Prices are more likely to continue in the original direction, which is beneficial for traders to follow the existing momentum.
2. Avoid counter-trend trading.
Counter-trend trading carries high risks. Counter-trend operations mean that traders are essentially betting that the market will reverse its current direction, which requires very precise timing and strong reversal signals as a basis.
3. Enter during active trading periods.
Active trading periods usually coincide with the overlapping times of major markets, such as when the London and New York markets are open at the same time. Trading during these periods offers better opportunities because liquidity and price volatility are relatively higher, leading to tighter bid-ask spreads, fewer slippages, and better trade execution quality.
Conversely, trading during low activity periods (such as Asian sessions, weekends, or holidays) may face larger spreads and lower liquidity, making trade execution more difficult.
Is the 20 EMA suitable for intraday trading?
The answer is affirmative. The 20 EMA is suitable not only for scalping but also for intraday trading. However, in intraday trading, one usually needs to wait for specific patterns to appear before entering, and once such a pattern is found, it should be confirmed using support and resistance levels. This pattern is actually quite easy to identify.
You should see a strong upward or downward movement within the first two hours after the market opens, followed by a price pullback to the 20 EMA. Remember, to maintain the effectiveness of this strategy, you also need to confirm the trend direction on a higher time period. If the trend in the higher period aligns with the earlier movement, then the probability of the price reversing near the 20 EMA will be very high.
Will the 20 EMA strategy fail? Backtesting results tell you.
Like any other trading strategy, the 20 EMA is not flawless; it can fail. Sometimes, the price does reach support or resistance levels but continues to consolidate; prices may even ignore the 20 EMA line and fluctuate back and forth. If you encounter such situations, it is best to pause trading and patiently wait for the next opportunity, as this market environment is full of uncertainty.
The 20 EMA strategy targeted for intraday trading underwent a week of backtesting from March 5, 2025, to March 12, 2025. The results showed that while the strategy may fail in some circumstances, it still achieved positive returns overall.
Specific details are as follows:
A total of 13 trades were made within 7 days, validating the 20 EMA strategy as an intraday trading system. More importantly, this strategy achieved a 61.54% win rate, bringing in a total profit of $8.22.
Conclusion
The 20 EMA trading strategy is a simple yet powerful strategy. Compared to SMA (simple moving average), EMA (exponential moving average) is closer to price fluctuations, showing a more accurate "rebound line" on the chart.
This strategy is simple enough that even novice traders can quickly get started and is quite effective for short-term trading in a 15-minute chart. But remember, it is best to confirm the trend on the daily chart first and pay attention to support and resistance areas.
Even if the 20 EMA strategy may fail at times, you can improve your win rate by analyzing multiple time periods and adding more tools to your chart. Moreover, if you trade in the direction of the main trend confirmed on the daily chart, the overall profit probability remains high.
While it may take some time to fully master this method, it is indeed worth a try. More importantly, you should first test the strategy on a forex demo account before applying it to a live account.
