Some things you should have understood long ago. The days of holding 20,000 yuan and eating steamed buns while staring at K-line charts are long gone. Looking back after 8 years of ups and downs, I realize that I can really rely on a trading system that many people criticize as "too simple" to save enough to live comfortably. No special talent, no insider information, and no crazy luck—just holding onto a logical approach tightly. Today, I’ll share my methodology over the years. It may not seem sophisticated, but it’s truly something that players at any stage can refer to.

**Fund Management Is the Foundation of Everything**

This is non-negotiable. Betting everything on one shot sounds exciting, but it can also kill you quickly. Divide your funds into 5 parts and only use one part for each operation. This way, a single loss won’t exceed 10%, and overall risk stays within 2%. Calculate it—losing 5 times in a row only costs 10%. But if you catch a real trend, the profits can immediately fill all the pits. This logic is so simple it’s almost obvious, but very few can truly stick to it.

**Follow the Trend Honestly**

Don’t rush to buy the dip during a decline; most of those times are traps for false signals. During an uptrend, don’t rush to exit either—the real golden opportunity appears when you think it’s time to run. The most valuable weapon for trend traders is actually just one thing: patience. It’s that simple.

**Those Overhyped Coins Are Not Opportunities**

Rapid surges look tempting, but they’re mostly traps. Whether it’s mainstream coins or altcoins, if the increase is absurdly large, your chances of buying the top are much higher than making money. If you can see such a trend without feeling envious, you’re already ahead of half the people.

**Use Technical Indicators, But Don’t Be Bound by Them**

MACD is quite handy. When DIF and DEA form a golden cross below the zero line and break through, it’s usually a good buy signal; conversely, if a death cross forms above the zero line and trends downward, consider reducing your position. Logic also applies to adding positions: never add when you’re losing, only when you’re making profits. This trick can help you eliminate most emotional trading.

**Volume Speaks for the Market**

A large volume breakout from a low position is often a sign that a trend is truly starting. To judge whether a coin is worth trading, look at whether the 3-day, 30-day, 84-day, and 120-day moving averages are turning upward. Don’t follow others blindly, and don’t expect miracles to happen to you—only trade coins that are already showing a clear trend.

**Reviewing Trades Is the Divide Between Experts and Beginners**

After each trade, review it in your mind: Why did I buy at that time? Where did I go wrong? Is the weekly trend still intact? Those who truly make money rely not on prediction skills but on growth through repeated review and reflection.

This approach may seem ordinary, but in reality, very few can execute it consistently. The market is never stingy with rewards for disciplined traders—especially those who can stay calm when everyone else is impatient and stick to their rhythm amid all the noise.
