Having been involved in the crypto space for so long, my biggest takeaway isn't how much I've earned, but rather finding a relatively stable trading logic. Today, I’m sharing this method publicly as a little help for beginners.



First, understand some signals on the market chart. When the market crashes sharply, if the coins you hold only dip slightly, it indicates that someone is supporting the market. At this point, you can confidently hold your position. I’ve tested this with AXL and ZEC, and this method is universally applicable.

Regarding buying and selling, for short-term trades, I look at the 5-day moving average; for mid-term, the 20-day moving average. The core principle is to hold above the line and sell if it breaks below. It sounds simple, but sticking to it is the hard part. Once a major upward wave forms without volume, decisively jump in. The subsequent logic is clear: continue holding if volume increases and price rises; if volume decreases but the trend remains intact, continue holding; but if volume increases and the trend support is broken, reduce your position.

For short-term entries, if there’s no movement within three days, exit. This isn’t cowardice, but to avoid being trapped. Cut losses at 5% without bargaining. If a coin drops 50% from a high and continues to fall for 8 days, it enters an oversold zone, and you can consider following up when the opportunity arises.

When choosing coins, focus only on the leaders; they rise the fastest and are most resistant to declines. Don’t get caught up in the percentage gains or losses. The key is to buy at relatively high levels and sell at even higher levels. Trade with the trend: select a suitable entry point rather than chasing the absolute lowest. Abandoning weak coins can save you a lot of trouble.

Once you have profits, the most important thing is to stay rational. During review, distinguish whether success was due to luck or skill. Only by establishing a stable trading system can sustained profits be possible. One last point: if you’re unsure, stay out of the market. This is also a strategy. Preserving capital first and then making money is much smarter than increasing trading frequency to improve success rates.

It sounds good, but the hard part is execution. I tried selling when it broke the line, but the next day it rebounded, and that was really uncomfortable.

Good points, but there are very few who can actually execute this logic. --- I agree with the 5% stop-loss, but it's just too hard to stick to. --- The leader's resistance to decline is really, trash coins fall without mercy. --- Taking action within three days for short-term trading is a bit aggressive; I usually wait five days. --- Holding a vacant position is also profitable; I need to remember this. --- Holding onto rebound coins is the true winner; it's easy to say but shaky hands make it hard to do. --- Listening to the 5-day and 20-day moving averages sounds simple, but why do I still lose when I use them? --- Daring to buy after an oversold period of eight days, that takes a strong heart. --- Buying at relatively high levels sounds counterintuitive, but it's indeed more reliable than bottom-fishing. --- Capital preservation first, profit second; although it sounds trivial, it really works.

Breaking the line and selling, knowing what to do but difficult to execute... I often get stuck here. Everyone is right, but when it comes to execution, I always want to hold on for two more days. As a result, I get caught when it drops. I need to reflect on the 5% stop-loss. I once fell into a 50% trap before, and now I’m too cautious. The leading stocks are indeed resilient, but I previously spent a lot of energy worrying about the clones. I should get a tattoo of the phrase "no confidence in empty positions"—it saved me several rounds. The market support signal is interesting; I need to pay close attention next time there’s a big drop. If there’s no movement in three days on the short-term, I should exit. It sounds simple, but it really requires strong psychological resilience.

Sounds good, but I want to ask, is this logic also effective in a bear market? Really? Can the 5-day moving average be so rigid and still make money? I see many people around me just stubbornly stick to the moving average and end up trapped. The idea of market support is a bit mysterious. How do you judge whether it's supporting the market or just no one is selling? Who decides the leading concept? Today's leader might be zeroed out tomorrow, I've experienced it myself. It's easy to say, but execution is damn difficult. I know these logics, but I still lose money. It's not about the method.

Well said, but how many can truly accomplish it? I am just stuck on the three words "坚持执行" (persistently execute).
