Having navigated the crypto trading market for many years, through days of losses and restless nights, I have also accumulated a relatively stable methodology. Rather than calling it a secret, it's more like a set of practical tricks summarized through countless trial and error, but they work.
**Tip 1: Wait for the Most Familiar Patterns**
The market moves every day, but truly good opportunities to bet on are few. Instead of chasing every wave, be patient and wait for those familiar chart patterns that have been practiced thousands of times. Like playing cards, avoid betting on uncertain hands; instead, browsing news and analyzing data can be more reassuring.
**Tip 2: Choose the Right Observation Time**
During the day, the market is easily influenced by news, making it hard to tell real from fake. After 9 PM, market sentiment gradually settles, and trends begin to reveal their true nature. This time period becomes a good window to see the direction clearly.
**Tip 3: Discipline of Taking Profits When Ready**
Made 1000U? Immediately transfer 300 to your bank account and cash out. This habit has saved many people. I've seen traders with profits like a Porsche Panamera sitting on their books, reluctant to close the position, only to give it all back in the end, even losing their principal. Taking profits timely is not about greed but respecting risk.
**Tip 4: Equip Yourself with Good Analysis Tools**
A good charting software can indeed improve your win rate. The three commonly used indicators—MACD crossovers, RSI overbought/oversold zones, Bollinger Band squeezes—can help filter out many false signals. But tools are just tools; understanding the underlying logic is key.
**Tip 5: Adjust Stop-Loss Flexibly**
While monitoring the market, once you earn 100U, move your stop-loss up by 50U to protect profits. Keep pushing it up layer by layer. Going out or sleeping? Set a hard stop-loss, like 5%, and let the system execute it. No need to worry about market makers doing tricks in the middle of the night.
**Tip 6: Periodic Profit Sharing**
Whether you earn 10,000 or 1,000 this week, take 30% of the profit and transfer it to your bank account every Friday at 3 PM. This fixed cycle of profit-taking often accumulates into stable income over time.
**Tip 7: Use Different Charts for Different Cycles**
For short-term trading, focus on the 1-hour chart. But pay attention to a phenomenon: after two consecutive bullish candles, the market often enters a sideways phase (industry term: "constipation market"). At this point, switch to the 4-hour chart to find support and resistance levels. Widening your perspective makes the trend clearer.
**Tip 8: Clear List of Minefields**
- Leverage over 10x? That’s actively courting disaster.
- Chasing junk coins without fundamentals? That’s handing the leek to others for harvesting.
- Placing more than 3 orders a day? You’re not far from losing everything.
**Final Reflection**
The more you think about getting rich overnight, the easier it is to fall into a liquidation trap. Conversely, those with a relatively Zen mindset who strictly follow profit-taking and stop-loss rules often end up with the fullest wallets. Opportunities in the crypto market are indeed fleeting, but impulsive moves are often more costly. Timing your actions and avoiding traps—that’s the real skill for long-term survival.
