Want to turn your cryptocurrency trading around? First, control your restless heart! I also came from a place where I lost everything until I realized one thing: this market specializes in punishing those who are unprepared, but treats patient people very well. The secret to truly making money can be summed up in one word—wait!

You see those who stare at the market every day, chasing highs and cutting losses; nine out of ten are just paying fees to the exchanges. All my big trades are made between 9 PM and 1 AM, when the market makers are most active and the fluctuations are most regular. The small skirmishes during the day are just retail traders cutting each other; the smart people are taking a good sleep.

Every time I make a 20% profit, the first thing I do is transfer 10% to a cold wallet. This tactic helped me avoid three major crashes last year and preserve over 80% of my profits. Remember, the money you pocket is your money! When looking at candlestick charts, don’t just focus on ups and downs; valuable information is hidden in the details. If the third MACD volume bar on the 4-hour chart shows a specific pattern, there’s an 80% chance of a trend change. Last year, I relied on this signal to accurately escape the peaks three times, leaving those who were looking at daily charts behind by two days.

Setting stop-losses is also a skill. Ninety percent of people’s stop-losses fail due to ineffective fluctuations. My unique secret is to set "conditional trigger + time-weighted"; a price breakout doesn’t count unless it lasts for two minutes.

Withdrawing funds also requires strategy. On the 25th of every month, I rigidly execute the "3-2-1" plan: 30% into stablecoins, 20% withdrawn, 10% for buying gold, and the rest continues to roll. This way, I won’t miss out on market trends while locking in profits.

During sideways markets, there’s a golden window period. By analyzing on-chain data combined with contract position ratios, I can predict which way the market will break out half a day to a day in advance. I’ve used this combo for a year with over 80% accuracy.

Remember, the most valuable skill in this market isn’t technical analysis; it’s the ability to stay out of the market. When you can resist making trades for 14 days, that’s when you’ve truly entered the game. Those who get itchy hands every day will eventually give back their profits.

Trading cryptocurrency is like hunting; the best hunters know that most of the time is spent waiting, and pulling the trigger is just a moment.
