I have been trading in cryptocurrencies for more than ten years. From my margin call to achieving financial freedom till now, I support my family by trading cryptocurrencies. From May 23, 2022 to June 4, 2024, in two years, I made less than 700,000 yuan, and achieved a winning rate of 418134.86%, which means I earned more than 28 million yuan.
Today I will share my trading strategies and experiences with my friends in the cryptocurrency circle.
There is a saying that if you stand on the shoulders of giants, you will struggle ten years less.
Friends who have the opportunity to see this and want to improve their cryptocurrency trading skills must read more and study carefully. It is recommended to collect it!
The practical rhythm of rolling from 3000U to 608W U, just say it once! For the brothers who are still struggling
Let me highlight the key points first: This is my actual combat strategy for rolling from 3000U to 80,000U. The core is not gambling, but "survival + compounding profits". If you want to try it, first weld the rules into the trading interface:
### First establish a "life-saving clause"
Consider your 3000U as your last chance to win, and write a "stop-loss pledge": if you lose 5% on a single trade, shut down the app; if you experience a 15% daily drawdown, disconnect from the internet and go to sleep. Remember, only if you survive the cryptocurrency world can you truly make money.
Day 1-7: Laying the foundation
Opening a position is not an all-in bet, but a "trial and error voting". Only place orders at key support/resistance levels, with a maximum initial order of 200U. If you make a mistake, you will cancel it immediately. Never hold on to orders.
As soon as your profit reaches 2 times your risk (2R), you can immediately withdraw your principal and use half of the profit to "play around." Before the market closes each day, move your stop-loss to your opening position and let the market take care of the market, allowing your profits to grow automatically.
Day 8-14: Adding gears
The first time your account breaks 6000U, withdraw 500U to buy a cup of milk tea - only when the profit is in your pocket can you maintain a stable mentality.
Then the order volume was increased to 500U, but the risk was reduced to 3% - the larger the position, the more cautious one should be. This is called "anti-human position control."
### Day15-21: Play with thinking, not leverage
After identifying the trend, increase the profit and loss ratio to 3:1 and change the position from "hourly level" to "daily level".
Only add to your position when there is a pullback and the price stops falling. Never chase the price up! With each increase in position, you will withdraw 20% of the profit, so that your account always has a "safety cushion".
Day 22-30: Locking Sprint
The goal is 40,000 to 80,000 yuan. Instead of magnifying the risk of a single transaction, use the "profit cushion" strategy:
For every 8,000 U you earn, withdraw 3,000 U to a cold wallet, leaving 5,000 U to continue rolling. Your account curve should only move upward or sideways. If it retreats 10%, reduce your position and return to stage B. Stability is more important than speed.
Finally, three sticky notes are placed on the screen:
1. Market conditions you don’t understand = other people’s money, don’t touch it!
2. Stop loss is one second faster than your reaction, so be ruthless in execution!
3. Compound interest is the interest given by discipline, not gambling!
In a 30-day cycle, from 3,000 to 80,000, it all depends on rhythm and profit. Survive and let the profits run their course—this is the key to rolling positions in the cryptocurrency market.
The reason why most people get liquidated is not because of their poor technical skills, but because of the wrong order: they want to win right from the start, but no one teaches them how to avoid losing first.
The following is the process of me tearing up the three notes again and showing them to him, which is also the complete strategy of the "Poor Man's Game" I give you today.
Note 1: Stop the bleeding - sew up the wound that caused the loss first
On the day the 10,000 U arrived, I asked him to do a little math:
• 50% spot: only buy the top 20 stocks by market capitalization, and then delete the 3rd, 7th, and 15th - those three are minefields laid by the market makers.
• 30% arbitrage pool: locked in a cold wallet, the key is given to me, and it will not be touched unless a signal appears.
• 20% life insurance: keep a hot wallet and write “Never trade” on the inside of your phone case.
In seven days, do only one thing: erase the word "all-in" from the dictionary.
Note 2: Blood Drawing — Let the Exchange Work for You
After the bleeding period, I gave him the second sentence: the difference is profit, the rate is interest, and the fluctuation is the red envelope.
I wrote down the specific process on an A4 paper, made two copies, one to stick on the monitor and one to put in my wallet:
1. If the spot price difference between the two exchanges is ≥1.5%, take a screenshot immediately;
2. If the perpetual rate remains negative for 12 consecutive hours and is less than -0.02%, an immediate alert will be issued.
3. At the same time, A buys spot goods and B goes short, making three times the profit.
After 30 days, the piece of paper was crumpled and wrinkled, and he had an extra 40,000 U in his account.
Note 3: Ambush - Stake out the door of the delivery room at Xinbi
After his account reached 50,000 U, I gave him a third note with only one line of words written on it:
"The dealer is most afraid that you are more familiar with his system than he is."
For new coin contracts within 72 hours of going online, the market is the thinnest, the trading volume is the most intense, and the margin call engine occasionally short-circuits for 3 seconds.
• Use only 3x leverage;
• Place a limit price at the pin point in advance;
• Trigger and go, don’t linger.
During the TON period, he used a 20% position to eat up 87% in 8 minutes, then turned off the computer and went to the gym.
Finally, stop asking where the next 100x coin is and ask yourself:
Do you know how to stop bleeding?
Do you dare to have your blood drawn?
Are you ready for an ambush?
Gold Trading Discipline: 7 Rules for Going from a Brokerage Breach to Stable Profits
1. Position Management: Always Use a 2% Stop-Loss Rule
- Specific implementation:
- Account balance 100,000 yuan → Single stop loss ≤ 2,000 yuan
- Calculated based on the current fluctuation of gold (average daily price of USD 20):
- 1 lot = $1,000 fluctuation → Maximum 0.2 lots (2,000 ÷ 1,000)
- A bitter lesson: In March 2023, due to a heavy position of 1.5 lots, a single-day loss of 7,500 yuan
2. Time discipline: Never place orders during these three periods
- No-entry period:
⛔ Beijing Time
- 15:00-15:30 (London opening liquidity trap)
- 20:30-21:00 (before and after the release of US data)
- After 2:00 AM (liquidity dries up in late New York trading)
- Real case: On the night of the January 2024 non-farm payroll report, I impulsively went long at 20:32 and lost $18 in 3 minutes
3. Technical Discipline: Double confirmation required for entry
- My Gold Trading System:
✅ Trend filter: Only go long above the 20EMA on the 4-hour chart
✅ Signal confirmation: Pinbar+MACD divergence appears on the 1-hour chart
- Typical mistake: Entering the market based solely on the 15-minute "golden cross" in September 2023, only to encounter a false breakout
4. Profit protection: three-step trailing stop
Take long as an example:
① Cost price + $5 → Set a break-even stop-loss
② Profit of $20 → Move the stop loss to cost price + $10
③ Profit of $50 → Use the lowest stop loss from 4 hours ago
Actual effect: In April 2024, gold rose from 2280 to 2350, fully eating and staying at $70
5. Emotional Discipline: Fill out a self-assessment form before trading**
- Self-test questions:
- Did you sleep ≥6 hours last night?
- Have you just experienced a profit/loss?
- Are you currently experiencing stress in your life?
Statistics: The winning rate of trades in 2023 when emotions are bad is only 41%.
6. Review Discipline: Daily 3-Question Log
Fixed template:
📝 Today's Best Deal: ______ (Which rule does it fit?)
📝 Worst trade of the day: ______ (Which discipline was violated?)
📝 Tomorrow's focus: ______ (key price/event)
Cumulative data: After persistent review, the winning rate increased from 52% to 63%.
7. Withdrawal rules: 20% of profit will be taken first
- My tiered withdrawal method:
- Weekly profit > 5% → Withdraw 20%
- Monthly profit＞15% → additional withdrawal 10%
- Withdrawals can be directly transferred to fixed deposits of the four major banks (to prevent itchy hands)
Results: Cumulative withdrawals in 2023 totaled 148,000 RMB, exceeding 50% of the original annual salary.
🔑 Recommended Discipline Enforcement Tools
1. TradingView Alerts: Set Voice Alerts for Key Price Levels
2. Excel Trading Log: Automatically Calculate Win Rate/Profit/Loss Ratio (Template Available for Sharing)
3. Physical stop-loss method: lock the screen and take a 20-minute walk immediately after placing an order
In the end, only fools can make money in the cryptocurrency world
Jesse Livermore famously said, "Money is made by sitting back, not by doing."
Some people may be curious why Jesse Livermore, the king of speculation in the United States, could say such a thing.
You may not be familiar with this famous investor, but you have definitely heard of his best-selling book (Reminiscences of a Stock Operator).
Livermore's theory is actually the earliest stock technical school.
His original words were: "Money comes from sitting and waiting, not from operations.
Money is earned by sitting back. This means you must be patient when the market is favorable for you. This includes when you're short. You must be patient and wait, holding your hands, until the right opportunity arises. The same applies when you hold a profitable position. You must be patient and believe that your stock will eventually perform. Of course, this assumes that your logic is sound, verified, and proven correct. Furthermore, you must be flexible.
"Money comes from waiting, not from operations. It means insisting on long-term investment and value investment. Avoid short-term investment and frequent operations.
Since you've chosen to hold your coins long-term and are optimistic about a particular market, eliminate all distractions. Life is limited; focus on one thing, drilling 1,000 meters deep, and you'll have a chance of making money. Sunlight is so strong, but why is it weaker on Earth? Why can sunlight under a magnifying glass start a fire? Because of focus. The same applies to trading: stick to short-term strategies, cut back on contracts, and focus your energy on a single area, making incremental progress. There's no reason not to make money.
Coins, like people, are subject to birth, aging, illness, and death. Markets, like human emotions, can often be madly in love one morning and happily part ways in the afternoon. People are fickle beyond your imagination, and the same is true for the market. A small piece of news can reverse the current trend... Therefore, short-term predictions are difficult, and I personally advise against gambling. Long-term investment is gold, short-term investment is rubbish.
Back to trading. As I mentioned before, trading means holding coins and growing with the project. There will be short-term ups and downs, which is normal. As long as it grows, making money is just a matter of time. While daily moods are unpredictable, birth, aging, sickness, and death are predictable. There's no reason not to follow suit.
Don't gamble, nine out of ten times you will lose. Layout scientifically, plant the seeds, and accompany them through life, old age, sickness, and death. The economy has cycles, follow the rules, and it is difficult to lose money. Some people say that if everyone holds the currency, can you still make money? Of course you can, but many people are just pretending to hold the currency, and they can't hold on for long.
Few people can persevere, and your job is to outlast them. Long-term investing is like sowing seeds. Strictly speaking, selection is more important than short-term investing, as it determines whether you can earn a lot. Without a doubt, absolutely stable stocks must be held. Potential stocks and coins should also not be passed up. As for which one to choose, it's up to you to decide.
As an investor, you must have your own way of playing. The reason why I gradually introduce my ideas is to stimulate discussion and inspire you to form your own thinking. This is the key to your long-term presence in the cryptocurrency circle and not being fooled by new concepts.
In the cryptocurrency world, many people lack judgment. That's why everyone's always asking questions: A says this coin is good, B says that coin is a scam. The constant chatter leaves you bewildered, unsure what to buy. You keep swapping and buying, and eventually, your coins dry up and your money is gone. I believe intelligence is the biggest enemy of trading. People always think they're lucky, and won't fall prey to the dealer's knife, jumping around and finally getting shot. There's a theory called the "Beginner's Law," which roughly states that newcomers to gambling will have good luck. Do you believe it? I do. Otherwise, how could they keep tricking you? Foolish people have their own luck; newcomers, beware.
There are always people who think, "I'm smarter than him. He bought a 1000x return on his coins, so I should be able to make a fortune in the cryptocurrency world." "Does intelligence mean you can make money?" You're overthinking it, bro. It's hard to make money in the cryptocurrency world without raw talent, unless you're incredibly smart, and how many people are that? If there are too many smart people, the value of the cryptocurrency will be gone, and fools will be able to make more money. Just look at those big cryptocurrency hoarders—who wasn't once smart, now a fool?
Many people don't understand the concept of "die-hard" (zhongzhu). What does it mean to be "die-hard"? It means I'm committed to this coin and will hold on to it forever, unwaveringly. Ignoring all negative information and blocking out all noise, I maintain an inner peace and accept nothing. As the old saying goes, if you don't have the heart to return to zero, you won't have the life to achieve a hundredfold increase.
Many people are trapped in the bear market, and when the bull market comes, they sell it as soon as the money doubles. In the end, they regret it. So, don’t give up until you reach your expectations, and don’t run away. It may seem stupid, but as long as you can make money, it’s good.
In any industry, insiders make money from outsiders.
They don’t understand trends, don’t understand investment strategies, don’t have a systematic investment method, and are unwilling to learn from experts.
How can you successfully make money in the financial market, which has the most intelligent people?
Money Management:
Here I will only talk about the fund management of the spot part, and the fund management involving the contract part will be discussed in detail in the next article.
Fund management is the second most important task in cryptocurrency investment, after target selection. It directly determines whether you can make money and is the lifeline for your long-term survival in the trading market. Mastering a good fund management strategy can not only effectively protect your principal and mitigate risks, but also effectively minimize drawdowns, preserve profits, and ultimately increase your risk tolerance manyfold.
The essence of spot fund management is the question of which asset to buy, when to buy, how much to buy, and how to sell. As mentioned in the previous article, I believe in simplicity. To focus my funds and reap the market's core benefits, I generally do not hold more than five assets at a time.
Therefore, in terms of capital allocation, I generally allocate about 70% of the funds to 2-3 most promising targets, and the remaining 20% to 2 targets. 10% of the funds will always be kept empty, reserved for capturing the strongest targets when the market is hot, and doing medium- and short-term trading, with a holding period of about one week, using blitzkrieg thinking to realize profits in the market.
Then there's the question of how to buy and sell. If you don't have advanced trading skills, batch buying and selling is definitely the best strategy, so the key consideration is determining the proportion of each batch. At this point, we need to find a balance between risk appetite and purchase cost (or selling price).
Taking the buying stage as an example, the operation with low risk appetite is definitely to wait until the downward trend ends and there is an obvious upward reversal signal, and then choose the opportunity to buy in batches. As the reversal trend strengthens step by step, the position will continue to increase, but this means that the lowest price range has passed and the purchase cost will be slightly higher.
Those with a strong risk appetite need to consider buying when the market is extremely panic-stricken during a decline. This is to maximize the purchase cost advantage. However, at this time, the market does not give an obvious downward trend reversal signal, so you may need to take greater risks.
Selling is similar to buying. You may get the highest price when selling in an upward trend when market sentiment is the highest, but you may also sell too low. Selling when the trend is reversing may not have much advantage in the selling price, but it is more secure.
Therefore, how to buy and sell in batches depends largely on personal risk preference. A strong risk preference is what we often call left-side thinking, and a weak risk preference is right-side thinking. Each has its pros and cons. As long as the overall risk is controlled well, there will be no major problem.
The Iron Law of Cryptocurrency Survival: The Dumber You Are, the More You Earn; 90% of People Fail on the Road to Being Smart
Having spent years in the cryptocurrency world, I've witnessed countless people get wiped out and lose everything. The truth is, most people don't lose out due to the market, but rather their own cleverness—constantly seeking shortcuts and quick fixes, while ignoring the simplest, hardcore methods. Today, I'll uncover the truth about surviving in the cryptocurrency world. Only those who understand it can truly survive and make money.
1. 90% of people fall into these three fatal mistakes
(1) Chasing the rise and selling the fall, reverse operation
Some people rush in as soon as the price of a cryptocurrency rises, hoping for easy profits, only to be dumped. When panic selling sets in and the bottom appears, they're too frightened to enter the market. Remember: those who can make "buy low" a habit are the ones who reap the rewards of cyclical returns. Be greedy when others are panicking, and you'll find the real bottom.
(2) Holding onto orders and being overwhelmed by gambling
Some people think they can "go all in and get rich quick" by identifying a specific direction, only to be wiped out by a few price drops and volatility from the main force. There's no such thing as a guaranteed profit in the cryptocurrency market. Holding onto a position only hands the initiative to the market. True experts know how to respond flexibly, cutting losses if the trend isn't right; don't bet against the market.
(3) Go all-in, leaving no room for retreat
Going all in when emotions strike can lead to missing out on better opportunities to add to your position due to a lack of funds. Once the market reverses, your position will be wiped out. Remember: opportunities are always there in the cryptocurrency market; conserving your funds gives you the initiative. Going all in is a gambler, not an investor.
2. The "Six-Character Formula" Ignored by 90% of People: The Dumber, the More Effective
(1) Don’t make any rash moves before the market turns
"Consolidation at high levels isn't over yet, and new highs are yet to come; sideways trading at low levels has no bottom, and new lows are likely to follow." During market fluctuations, most people lose all their patience and trade frequently, only to be slapped in the face. Remember: before a turning point signal appears, holding back is the key to success. It's better to miss out than to make a mistake.
(2) Enduring the sideways period
"If the market goes sideways, don't quit." A volatile market is a trap for major investors. The more you can't stand it, the more likely you are to sell at the bottom and chase the top. True experts observe and wait during periods of sideways trading, waiting until the market turns before taking action, thus maximizing their winning rate.
(3) Follow your emotions and follow the daily chart
"Buy on a bearish close, sell on a bullish close." Don't blindly rely on your "intuition"; market sentiment is embedded in the candlestick charts. A bearish candlestick indicates panic, presenting a bargain hunting opportunity; a bullish candlestick indicates euphoria, suitable for profit-taking and exiting. Following market sentiment is 100 times more reliable than making snap decisions.
(4) Watch the rhythm and catch the rebound
"A slow decline doesn't lead to a high rebound; a rapid decline leads to a sharp rebound." Market rhythm determines opportunity: Avoid bottom-fishing in a declining market; the slower the decline, the more likely it is that selling pressure has been released, making a major rebound unlikely. Sharp declines hide opportunities; panic selling creates golden opportunities, and sharp declines are often followed by sharp rebounds. Understanding the rhythm is crucial to capitalizing on these opportunities.
(5) Pyramid, keep a backup plan
"Build your position in a pyramid-like fashion, entering the market in batches." Never go all-in at once. In a downtrend, buy low in batches; in an uptrend, take profits in batches. Only by keeping your options open can you respond to unexpected market fluctuations. True market experts always have a backup plan.
(6) After a big rise or fall, wait for signals
"After a sharp rise or fall, there will be consolidation, and after consolidation, there will definitely be a reversal." After extreme market fluctuations, don't rush to go all-in or sell at a loss. The consolidation period is the "accumulation period" for the bull-short game. Wait for the signal of a reversal (a breakthrough of a key resistance/support level) before taking action. This will double your winning rate and profits.
3. The truth about survival in the cryptocurrency world: Only by enduring can you make money
The market is never short of opportunities; what's lacking are those who can hold steady, persevere, and survive. Don't envy the experts' "good luck"; they simply use these "stupid methods" to the extreme—using patience to combat volatility, discipline to control risk, and strategy to seize opportunities.
Remember: the cryptocurrency world isn't about making "smart money," it's about "hard work." Mastering these ironclad principles—controlling your hands, persevering, and executing steadily—will broaden your cryptocurrency trading horizons, transforming you from a "leek" to a "hunter" who reaps the rewards.
Finally, a reminder: There are risks in the cryptocurrency world, and operations should be cautious, but as long as you master these "stupid methods", you can gain a firm foothold in the market.
