I have been navigating the crypto world for many years and have summarized a trading logic that seems simple but can generate consistent profits. I’ll share it here.



First, let’s talk about market judgment. When the market crashes, your coins only experience minor corrections, which usually indicates institutional support. These coins often surprise you. Conversely, those with large declines are probably unwanted by others, so it’s better to avoid them.

Regarding operational tactics, my approach is quite simple but effective. For short-term trading, focus on the 5-day moving average. If the price stays above it, hold confidently; if it breaks below, exit immediately. For medium-term, switch to the 20-day moving average, with the same logic. Essentially, find a cycle that suits you, then stick to it and execute diligently—don’t be indecisive.

Timing entry points: after the main upward wave starts, if there’s no obvious volume increase, enter the market. Continue holding as volume rises. Even if the price declines with decreasing volume, as long as the trend remains intact, don’t move. Only reduce your position if volume increases and the trend breaks downward. For short-term trades, if there’s no response within three days, withdraw. If the price drops more than 5%, cut losses immediately—don’t expect miracles at this point.

An often overlooked opportunity is oversold rebounds. If a coin drops 50% from its all-time high and continues falling for 8 days, a rebound is likely near. Consider adding lightly to your position.

The core of trading is still choosing the leading coins. Leaders rise fiercely and tend to be resilient during corrections. Don’t be scared off by large declines and chase lows blindly. Also, don’t be discouraged by big gains—buy high and sell higher is the logic for leaders.

The biggest risk in trading is going against the trend blindly. Buying at the lowest price isn’t necessarily the best; what matters is how well it fits your trading system. During a downtrend, it’s better to admit defeat proactively rather than guessing the bottom. Abandon weak coins decisively because the trend determines the outcome.

Profits are the easiest to lose if you’re not careful, because consistent earning is the hardest part. After each trade, review and analyze whether the profit was due to luck or skill. Gradually build your own stable trading system.

One last point: don’t force trades if you’re not confident enough. Sometimes holding cash is the best choice. The primary goal of trading is capital preservation; profits are an added bonus. True experts focus not on trading frequency but on success rate. The secret to surviving in the crypto space is solid execution, continuous learning, and maintaining a calm mindset.

That's right, but I think the most important thing is mindset. Many people fail because of greed.

It sounds good, but the actual operation is extremely difficult. I've tried the 5-day and 20-day lines before, but when it comes to critical moments, I still tend to get greedy. The idea that leading stocks resist declines does make sense, but after choosing the wrong leader multiple times, my mentality collapses.

It's easy to say, but the key is to withstand the psychological test. --- Sticking to the moving averages really works, but I just can't follow through. --- I've heard many times about buying at high levels for leading stocks, but in practice, I tend to be soft-hearted. --- A rebound after oversold conditions does often catch the bottom, but more often, it breaks below expectations. --- Reviewing the situation is really crucial; most people skip this step. --- Holding cash or coins in both hands requires stability; the difficulty lies in the patience during this time. --- Recognizing institutional support can earn a lot if identified correctly, but the risk is seeing things wrongly. --- A 5% stop-loss sounds easy, but once it hits the account, you just want to wait a bit longer. --- If there's no response in three days, I give you a thumbs up for this move; it can save your life. --- The phrase "Capital preservation first" is worth getting a tattoo of, but unfortunately, few can remember it. --- The ability to judge trends truly varies greatly; beginners often get the direction wrong.
