Absolutely right, it's just that many people die because of being "too smart." I used to be the same—full of indicators in my mind, but ended up losing everything. Now I just focus on MA60 and the trend, and I feel much more comfortable.

That's right, execution is the hardest. Many people around me die from greed; they set stop-losses but are unwilling to cut losses, and in the end, they lose everything in a single limit-down.

Everyone is right, but only one out of ten can truly do it.

You're right, greed kills people. I'm currently that kind of fool who draws a bunch of lines.

nah technically speaking, oversimplifying things just introduces selection bias into your analysis. if you actually run the numbers on ma60 alone, you're filtering out critical data points that empirically proven to matter. pretty sub-optimal if you ask me.
There are actually quite a few people losing money, think about it carefully……
It’s not that the technology is inadequate
But that the heart is too impatient, desires are too strong, and always wanting to turn things around quickly.
Many beginners are like this👇
They start piling up after just a few days in the circle
All kinds of indicators, patterns, models, as if they want to fit everything into their minds
The more complicated the lines drawn
The more chaotic the operation becomes
Finally, they realize:
The more you understand, the faster you lose.
I have known many who do contract trading stably
They all have one characteristic:
Using the simplest methods, yet living the longest.
It’s not that they are extraordinarily gifted
But that they have long seen through:
Human greed is always harder to control than K-line trends.
🌱Their trading style looks very "silly"
But there are actually only three rules 👇
🔹Do not pursue full positions
Take profits when you should, then exit
If you can’t get it, treat it as no market
Earning a little less is always better than being hit back by a retracement
🔹Don’t predict the market
Don’t try to bottom fish precisely
Don’t bet on possible rebounds
Wait for the trend to develop before following, that’s the reliable way to confirm direction
🔹Don’t stubbornly hold positions
If you judge incorrectly, admit defeat immediately
Set your stop-loss and execute it
Live to see the next opportunity
📌The simplest practical approach
Don’t touch small coins
Don’t chase exotic or obscure varieties
Don’t chase hot trends
Focus on two:
BTC, ETH
Not that you will definitely make money
But that you can minimize unnecessary variables
This is called "The Great Way is very simple trading wisdom."
📈Seeing trends isn’t complicated
Just watch the 4-hour chart
Only recognize one moving average
MA60 rising → go long
MA60 falling → go short
No need to delve deep into macro aspects
Ignore what big influencers say
No need to stay up all night refreshing news
Just follow the trend, everything else is noise.
🔒What’s really tested is execution
No pre-judging
No fantasizing
When it hits the set point, exit
Set your stop-loss and don’t change it
Set your take-profit target and don’t be greedy
The goal isn’t to win every trade
But to be able to
Survive in this game for a lifetime.
🌈Only after walking this path do you realize:
Making things complicated is just showing off to others
Being able to simplify everything is true reconciliation
The ones who make money are not the smartest
But those who can do "simple things repeatedly correctly"
The more you trade, the more you understand:
Simplicity does not mean low level
Simplicity is the highest form of rationality.✨
