I have been in this market for 8 years, from a newbie Get Liquidated to now the account is stable at 20 million, I would like to say - I am really not a trading genius.



Many people believe that making money requires some special secrets. But let's be honest, what can keep you alive in the world of digital currencies and earn money often ends up being those few dumb and boring moves that are repeated until they become an automatic reaction.

You must have gone through a similar experience: you saw a cloned cryptocurrency suddenly rise, so you rushed in, and the next day you found yourself having lost half its value, looking at your account and thinking about the losses until your mood completely collapsed. I did this kind of foolishness many times in the first three years. After that, after suffering the pain, I simplified my trading system to its simplest form and started making stable profits.

**How can I choose the tool now?**
Very direct - first look at the price rise list. If the currency does not even have interest, and capital does not want to enter, what does it mean to buy the dip? I only focus on those types that have previous performance and signs of capital flow, at least this indicates that the market acknowledges its narrative.

**On a technical level, don't make things too complicated.**
The golden MACD crossover on the monthly line is the main basis for my entry. As for those fluctuating candles on the daily chart? Honestly, watching them too much will only lead to anxiety. Before a clear signal appears on the monthly level, I prefer to remain flat and not bet on the so-called "bounce from the bottom" - nine times out of ten the result is bad.

Then there is the important 60-day moving average site. If prices return and do not break, and start to increase, this is the time I will consider increasing the position. If the signal does not appear? Then wait. Many people lose money, not because they do not know how to buy, but because they feel anxious and always want to do something.

**What comes after entry? Don't get involved in the fight.**
This lesson was learned with real blood: leave the market at the breakout, do not get emotionally attached to the market. Many people turn from profit to a big loss because they cannot let go of those few points of profit, and the result is that they end up even getting liquidated. Set a stop loss, if the price drops below it, execute the order, there is no second statement.

For taking profits, I don't sell everything at once. When the profits are on paper at 30%, I take out half the amount first to secure the profits; and when it reaches 50%, I take out half the amount again; as for the remaining part, I use a trailing stop loss to gradually reduce it. Although this method doesn't achieve the highest point, it at least ensures that I can take profits every time, instead of riding the rollercoaster.

There is another strict rule - the 70-day moving average is a lifeline. If prices drop below this level, regardless of how high they were previously, I must exit immediately and liquidate my account. Do not bet against the market, and do not use your savings to test how "correct" your judgment is. Staying in this market for 8 years depends on this awareness of the necessity to keep life in such moments.

Ultimately, the logic of making money in the world of digital currencies is not that complicated: execute the simple rules to the fullest, and make emotional management muscle memory. What really distinguishes the difference is not the number of K charts you have seen, but when it comes time to stop the loss, do you have the courage to make the decision.
