TREAT CRYPTO TRADING LIKE A 9–TO–5
Clock In. Cash Out. Win Daily.
I used to trade like a gambler.
Eyes glued to the screen.
Chasing pumps.
Panicking at every red candle.
Overleveraging. Overthinking.
Underperforming.
It was exhausting—mentally, emotionally, and financially.
Then I made one shift that changed everything:
I started treating crypto trading like a job.
Not a game. Not a hobby. A profession.
Just like a 9-to-5:
Clock in. Clock out. Get paid.
Here’s my 7-rule trading playbook that took me from chaos to consistent profits:
1. Trade After 9 PM — When the Noise Fades
Daytime is full of distractions.
News drops. Whales dump. Social media hypes.
It’s a battleground of fakeouts.
After 9 PM? The market breathes.
Retail traders quiet down. Bots settle.
That’s when the real setups reveal themselves.
I call it: The Golden Hour.
2. Take Profits Fast — Greed is the Enemy
You catch a good run.
You’re up $1,000.
Do you let it ride?
Nope. I take $300 off the table immediately.
The rest? House money.
Profit secured.
Stress reduced.
Greed denied.
3. Trust Your Tools, Not Your Feelings
Emotions? They lie.
Indicators? They don’t.
I use a simple 3-tool system:
• MACD: Golden cross = green light
• RSI: Oversold = prime entry. Overbought? Time to chill.
• Bollinger Bands: Tight squeeze? A big move is coming.
When two of three align, I act.
No second-guessing.
4. Use Stop-Losses Like Survival Gear
When I’m at the screen:
I trail my stop-loss as the price climbs.
When I’m not?
I set a hard 3% stop-loss.
Why?
Because risk control = account survival.
Protect your capital, and you stay in the game.
5. Payday is Friday — Every Week
Trading isn’t about pixel profits.
It’s about real income.
Every Friday, I withdraw 30% of my weekly gains.
Crypto is nice.
But fiat in the bank is what pays the bills.
Lock in the win.
Celebrate progress.
Repeat weekly.
6. Candlestick Clues = Alpha on the Chart
Candlesticks tell a story.
You just have to listen.
• 1H chart: Two clean green candles = short-term momentum.
• 4H chart: Bounce from a key support = my entry trigger.
No guessing.
Just reading the chart’s language.
7. Rookie Moves I Leave to Rookies
• Leverage? Max 5x. 10x is for sniper setups only.
• Meme coins? Not my game. I trade substance, not hype.
• Max 3 trades/day. Focus wins. Overtrading loses.
• Never risk what you can’t afford to lose. Ever.
This is not gambling.
It’s a mindset shift.
Treat crypto trading like a business.
Build structure. Stay disciplined.
Clock in. Trade smart. Get paid.
Because once you start showing up like a pro?
The market starts paying you like one.
