I've been in this market for 8 years, rolling my initial 50,000 principal up to over 56 million now. I'm not some genius trader—I just stick to one principle: 50% position size, no greed, no rush. This strategy has let me consistently earn an average of 70% monthly returns. I once guided a friend with this method; after three months, his capital doubled. Today, I'll lay out everything I've summarized over the years—it's up to you what you do with it.



First, let's talk about fund management. Divide your money into 5 parts and only use 1 part at a time. That's the iron rule. Set your stop-loss at 10%; per trade, that's a max loss of 2% of your total capital. Even if you lose 5 times in a row, that's only a 10% loss. On the flip side, set your take-profit at 10% or higher—you can't lose with this math. Most people get stuck simply because they go all-in.

How do you increase your win rate? One word: follow the trend. Every rebound in a downtrend is a bull trap; every pullback in an uptrend is a golden opportunity. Which is easier: catching the bottom or buying the dip? The answer is obvious, but some people insist on catching falling knives.

I never touch coins that have surged in the short term, whether they're mainstream or small-cap. Very few coins can sustain consecutive strong rallies. After a spike, it's much harder to push higher; if it stalls at the top and can't break out, it'll naturally fall back down. It's basic logic, but there's always someone willing to risk being the last one holding the bag.

MACD is my go-to entry and exit signal. When DIF and DEA form a golden cross below the zero line and then break above it, that's a solid entry. When they form a death cross above the zero line and head downward, reduce your positions—don't hesitate.

How many people have been hurt by "averaging down"? The more you lose, the more you add, and the more you add, the more you lose—that's a cardinal sin in trading. Remember: never average down in a losing position; only add to winners. Throwing money into a hole is no different from financial suicide.

Price and volume are king. If a coin breaks out with volume at a low price, keep a close eye on it; if it surges with volume at a high and then stalls, get out fast. Volume doesn't lie—it's the market's most honest signal.

Only trade coins in an uptrend. A 3-day moving average turning up signals a short-term opportunity; a 30-day upturn is a mid-term signal; an 84-day uptrend means the main rally is on, and a 120-day uptrend marks a long-term trend. Use the right moving average system, and your win rate will naturally improve.

Last but not least, review your trades daily. Check if your position logic has changed, whether the weekly K-line matches your expectations, and if there are signs of a trend reversal. Adjust your strategy dynamically—the market won't wait for you to catch up.

There's nothing mystical about this system—it's all about discipline and execution. The market will always be here; the ones who lose are those who break the rules.

Sounds nice, but it basically just means strictly sticking to discipline. To put it simply, it really is that simple. I've used the half-position rule and stop-loss/take-profit strategies too; the key is execution, and most people just can't do it. Average monthly return of 70%? Let's see some proof before bragging—screenshots, please. That part about averaging down really hits home. So many people end up digging themselves into a hole because they're chasing "double down to break even." Following the trend sounds easy, but it actually takes a lot of mental strength to pull off in practice. Catching falling knives is just a gambler's mentality—nothing worth bragging about. If you use MACD correctly, it does work, but the market changes so fast that the lag with indicators can be a real problem. Just hop in as soon as the 120-day moving average turns up? That sounds a bit too idealistic. Backtesting is definitely important, but most people can't stick to that habit at all. You're right about the volume-price relationship, but is it really that easy to spot the moment when volume spikes but price stalls? This whole logic forms a closed loop—it all comes down to who can truly stay unshaken.

A 50% position is indeed a lifeline. When I used to go all-in, I once drove my account into the negative in a single trade. I only survived after I changed my approach. That's right, averaging down really is a trap. I've seen too many people keep buying as prices fall, and in the end, they lost all their principal and still owed leverage. I need to really study this moving average system. Right now, I'm still just guessing and feeling my way. To be honest, an average monthly return of 70% sounds a bit far-fetched, but the logic checks out. Following the trend is key—trying to catch falling knives will eventually cut your hand and make you bleed. I'm often slow to react to MACD death crosses. By the time I notice, the price has already dropped several points. The saying "price and volume don't lie" really resonates with me. Trading volume tells the real story. If this guy isn't exaggerating, turning your money a thousandfold in ten years is possible purely through discipline.

Half position with an average monthly return of 70%? Buddy, that data deserves a question mark. That's true, but how many people can actually stick to it? Most end up going all-in and regretting it later. I agree with the part about averaging down—the lesson of losing more the more you average in is a tough one. So many people have fallen for it. "Follow the trend" sounds simple, but when the market moves, it's still easy to catch a falling knife. No one can resist the temptation to buy the dip. 56 million... care to share anything about taxes? Haha. Reviewing trades is really important, but many people just can't do it. Everyone's just hoping to get rich overnight and that's it.

That's right, going all-in is truly a fatal mistake. --- The 50% position strategy sounds simple, but very few can actually stick to it. --- A rebound is just a bull trap—I agree with that. I've suffered too much catching falling knives. --- Averaging down is indeed harmful; the more you do it, the deeper the hole. I've seen too many cases like this. --- If you use the moving average system correctly, the win rate is worlds apart. --- Quickly exiting when there's high volume but stagnant prices at the top—this is the truth. --- From 50,000 to 56 million in 8 years—the power of discipline is scary. --- Reviewing trades is key, but most people are too lazy to do it. --- Following the trend sounds easy, but 99% fail in execution. --- I often use that MACD system too, it's indeed reliable.

56 million sounds intimidating, but when you look closer, it’s really just that simple and straightforward. Nothing this guy says is new, but he’s got a point—going all-in really is the retail investor’s fatal flaw. Talking about holding 50% position sounds nice, but when the market really moves, how many people can actually resist increasing their bets? Honestly, I never have. As for that friend who doubled his money, I’d like to see if he’s still in the game now. Averaging down and losing money really hits home. Too many people around me keep adding as it drops, and end up quitting the scene entirely. The point about volume and price is true, but most people honestly have no idea what trading volume is telling them. Keeping up the habit of reviewing past trades is harder than anything, but those who stick with it do tend to last longer. Going with the trend really is so much easier than trying to catch the bottom, but some people just have to take that gamble. Strictly following stop-loss and take-profit rules is the only way your mindset won’t collapse after a year.
