Mastering short-term trades requires more than just luck—it takes precision, discipline, and a no-nonsense strategy. Here are the 5 essential rules every serious trader must live by:
1️⃣ LOCK IN PROFITS LIKE A PRO
✅ +10%? Eyes on the chart—protect your gains.
🔙 Retracing to entry? Secure that profit.
✅ +20%? Only hold if it holds above +15%.
🚀 +30%+? Bank at least 20%—don’t get greedy.
📌 Profit isn't real until it's realized.
2️⃣CUT LOSSES FAST—ZERO EMOTION
❌ -10%? Cut it immediately.
⚰️ Bad trades don’t become good trades.
🔁 Missed a pump? Let it go.
🧠 Emotional trading destroys portfolios.
3️⃣ RE-ENTER WITH PRECISION
📉 If it dumps after you sold, re-enter slowly at lower levels.
📈 If it pumps, wait for a pullback—no chasing.
🎯 Revenge trading is not a strategy. Stay tactical.
4️⃣ TRADE THE CHART, NOT YOUR BIAS
💡 Holding a bag doesn’t mean it’s the best play.
📊 Spot better setups? Switch fast.
🚫 Emotional loyalty to coins = portfolio drain.
5️⃣ FOLLOW THE VOLUME
🔇 No volume? No trade.
📢 Low-volume pumps? Major red flag.
💥 Real moves ride on real volume.
🏆 STAY DISCIPLINED = STAY PROFITABLE
Break these rules, and the market will break you.
Follow them, and you stay in the game longer than most.
