Too many people fantasize about turning their lives around through crypto, only to fall into two traps: itchy hands + unwillingness to accept losses.



They go all-in before the market even shows a sign, feeling like a god that day; the next morning, their account is as green as a field of leeks.

After a small pump, they can't bring themselves to sell, thinking they'll ride it to the top; then a single big red candle crashes them, and their mindset collapses.

I used to make the same mistakes, getting schooled by the market until I finally learned my lesson.

After enough losses, I figured out these 10 survival rules. They're not some advanced theories—just hard-earned lessons paid for with real money.

Want to make a living trading? These aren't suggestions, they're survival basics.

**① Only look at strong coins after they've dropped for 9 consecutive days**
Don't rush to bottom fish. Those who reach out too early become bag holders.

**② After two consecutive days of surges, take half your profit off the table**
Money in your pocket is real—numbers on the screen can fool you.

**③ If a coin jumps more than 7% in a day, absolutely don't chase it the next day**
True strength is about stability, not just big jumps.

**④ Observe for three days during sideways movement; if nothing happens in six days, get out immediately**
More people get drained by sideways action than by sharp drops.

**⑤ Cut your losses quickly if you want your account to survive**
If you haven’t recovered by the next day, walk away. Holding on is the most expensive emotional cost for retail traders.

**⑥ Remember the "3-5-1-7" rhythm: 2 days pumping, 3 days accumulation, 5 days distribution**
Those who understand the rhythm get the biggest gains.

**⑦ All the answers are hidden in the relationship between volume and price**
High volume breakout at the bottom = buy signal
High volume with stagnation at the top = time to get out

**⑧ Only trade with the trend, always go with the flow**
No matter how tempting countertrend opportunities seem, stay away—they're traps.

**⑨ Small bankroll and want to survive? Don’t rely on luck**
Rely on rules, patience, and execution.

**⑩ Take simple rules to the extreme—that's your profit system**
Few can stick to this, so even fewer make real money.

People who truly make a living from crypto trading aren’t born gifted—they’re ruthless and steady—

Not greedy, not panicked, not blindly following the crowd,
Pocketing profits one trade at a time.

When the market is stable, life naturally becomes stable too.
