That year, he stood by the roadside gnawing on a cold steamed bun, clutching a repayment slip in his hand. The money earned from riding his bike 14 hours a day was only enough to fill the gaps caused by trading cryptocurrencies. The turning point came suddenly—last week, he sent a screenshot of his account showing a seven-figure balance.

Having been involved in the crypto world for eight years, I’ve seen too many people lose everything. But he made me understand a truth: this is not a pure casino, but a playground of discipline. Those who think they are clever always try to take shortcuts, only to be taught a lesson by the market one by one; only those who stick to trading discipline can laugh last.

**First Trick: Abandon chasing, just focus on two windows**

The most common mistake beginners make is chasing highs and selling lows. He followed various "gurus," and within half a year, he lost everything and even owed a lot of debt.

Later, after reviewing two years of data, he discovered the secret: give up 90% of the market noise and focus on just two windows.

One is during the overlap of European trading hours (15:00-17:00). During this time, institutional funds enter the market, greatly reducing "false breakouts." He prepared strategies in advance and only waited for signals to appear. Relying solely on this window for swing trading, his profit rate exceeded 15%.

The second is after non-farm payroll data (the first Friday of each month after 02:30). He doesn’t chase the initial emotional wave, but waits 15 minutes for a "confirmation candle" to appear, then enters with a light position. On that non-farm night in November last year, his half-position profit was equal to three months’ salary.

**Second Trick: "Iron Triangle" indicator system**

Too many indicators on the screen only cause confusion. He focuses on just three tools:

The "triple bottom" phenomenon of Bollinger Bands—price touches the lower band three times, each time accompanied by increased volume, signaling an imminent rebound.

The moment RSI rises from 30 and breaks through 50—this is a trend reversal signal.

The performance of OBV leading the price—while the price is still sideways, OBV has already quietly risen, indicating funds are already lurking.

When these three signals resonate, it’s the best time to enter. Last year, he used this system to catch a 30% increase.

**Third Trick: Dynamic take profit, truly lock in gains**

"Many people don’t lose in a downturn, but hesitate whether to sell or greedily take profits and give them back."

His approach is very practical: when profits reach 50%, he cashes out half to lock in gains, and sets a "moving stop-loss" on the remaining position, using recent lows as a safety cushion. He doesn’t exit unless the stop is hit.

This way, he uses "market money" to chase further gains with a very stable mindset. Even if the market pulls back, he only earns less, never loses money.

The market continues to unfold, and opportunities never wait. For traders who want to keep pace with the crypto market and achieve stable profits, it’s worth starting to refine your trading system with these three tricks.
