I lost 800,000 over three years, I almost couldn’t get back up in the crypto world.
I once thought the crypto world was an elevator to freedom, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a slide straight to the abyss.
In the year I first entered the circle, I brought 1 million in savings, dreaming of 'bottom-fishing and doubling' and 'financial freedom'.
In the end, it took me three whole years, paying over 800,000 in 'tuition', losing to the point of doubting life.
During that time, I woke up every day not wanting to open my eyes, feeling anxious just looking at the K-lines, even my closest ones began to advise me to give up.
Family ties, emotions, and confidence were all almost worn out.
I also thought that if I had bought a house back then, maybe I would have tripled my investment by now...
Unfortunately, I chose this hardest path.
With my last 200,000, I decided to take a risk and start anew.
With only 200,000 left in my account, I told myself:
'If I lose everything this time, I will completely exit.'
It was from this moment that I finally gave up on fantasies.
No longer listening to news, chasing trends, or trading based on feelings, I started to strictly adhere to the trading system and risk control logic.
I finally understand—
'In the crypto world, it's not about who rushes the fastest, but who can withstand the pressure.'
I chose the most 'down-to-earth' but most stable path: sticking with MACD.
Why MACD? It's neither the trendiest nor the coolest, but it's the most effective 'veteran' I've tested.
I persist in using it not out of sentimentality, but because it helped me through the darkest years.
✅ For me, MACD has these 5 values:
1. Stability verified by time.
It's not just a slogan K-line, but a trend tool that has truly been validated through countless market conditions.
2. A weapon for profiting in the trend.
MACD is naturally suitable for judging medium-term trends, holding on to golden crosses, taking profits at death crosses, extremely simple but extremely powerful.
3. Identifying tops and bottoms by divergence, seeing reversals at a glance.
As long as you learn to spot divergence, you can escape tops in advance and accurately catch bottoms. My several doubling opportunities all came from this.
4. The inevitable path from novice to expert.
Most people’s first lesson in the crypto world is MACD, but as they go along, they find it 'too basic', and in the end, they obediently turn back, only to find: simplicity is the ultimate.
5. The logic that even quantitative institutions are using.
Many professional funds actually run the underlying logic of MACD, not shouting slogans, but doing trends; this is the difference between professionals and retail investors.
Nine years of cultivation, from being a novice to a hunter, relying on system + discipline + MACD.
I am not a god, nor a genius programmer.
I just gave up on fantasies earlier than others, chose to deeply explore an effective method, and executed it to the utmost.
From 200,000 to 40 million, it wasn’t luck that helped me, it was:
• A stable execution trading system.
• Risk assessment before every order.
• And MACD, an indicator ignored by many but truly useful.
✍️ Written for you who are still in loss:
If you are still losing, still relying on feelings to enter the market and intuition to stop losses, I suggest you stop.
Seriously study MACD once, research its trend logic and divergence signals.
Use the most basic indicators to build your own trading discipline.
You will find that the simpler things are, the more they can help you survive.
The crypto world is not paradise; it is a jungle.
If you want to live long, you must transform from prey to hunter.
And your first 'gun' might just be MACD.
